Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?
Chapter 592 - 535: Major Events Imminent
Han Yu’s expression was very peculiar. Wasn’t this guy in front of him once an enemy?
But why did he inexplicably seem so confident in him?
"Desperate times call for desperate measures."
Chasing Soul smiled bitterly.
He had no other choice, as the Celestial Dao Sect would never genuinely accept him, and Yama Hall wouldn’t let him go either.
Actually, Han Yu wasn’t his best choice, but his only one.
"What to do?"
Han Yu continuously communicated with the Artifact Spirit in his Sea of Consciousness.
If it were the past, he would have naturally wished for Yama Hall and the Celestial Dao Sect to fight each other to the death.
But Chasing Soul had said that once these five people dealt with those from the Celestial Dao Sect, the next target would be him.
He couldn’t just sit back and watch; after all, the defeat of the Celestial Dao Sect was of no benefit to him.
"Isn’t Quan Xiaotong here? Why not go collect debt from him? I told you before, without Qi Fortune, there’s no sense of security."
The Artifact Spirit crossed its arms, with a look of deep-seated grievances.
If Qi Fortune could be endlessly supplied, Han Yu might have already become incredibly powerful.
"You really dare to think big!"
Endless Qi Fortune, as if there could be so much of it. Didn’t you see Quan Xiaotong is already in debt!
However, with the current situation, Han Yu indeed had to find Quan Xiaotong, as Yama Hall’s greatest scheme had always revolved around the Central Continent.
Thus, the sudden arrival of five strong individuals might also be related to the Central Continent.
As long as it concerned the Central Continent, even if Quan Xiaotong had to spit blood, he would have to support him.
On the other side, Quan Xiaotong and Ling Wuce were discussing the details on the Celestial Wave Crossing outside Sea Stone City.
They didn’t expect Han Yu to come, even more so with such explosive news.
"Never a moment of peace."
Quan Xiaotong sighed, not being able to resist was one thing, but not even having a few peaceful days was another.
Regarding Han Yu’s purpose, Quan Xiaotong’s face instantly fell.
Honestly, if there really was an endless source of Qi Fortune cultivators, he wished Han Yu could soar to the sky. Unfortunately, he simply didn’t have any.
Not only did he not have any, but even the progress in gathering resources had slowed significantly.
Yet that’s not the most troublesome part; compared to the news Han Yu brought, the current situation was an even bigger headache.
Yama Hall’s schemes were gradually surfacing, with the Central Continent shrouded by an unknown array, that’s one.
The second is their frightening attitude of just rearing the Central Continent, wielding a butcher knife in one hand and fodder in the other, a behavior spanning thousands of years.
He had a vague intuition that with Yama Hall’s big move this time, many schemes would also surface.
Unfortunately, too little time was given for the Central Continent to react.
If the Nine Sects, or the entire Cultivator Realm, didn’t take a gamble, they would indeed be at the mercy of others.
Worth mentioning is that when Han Yu returned to Sea Stone City, Chasing Soul had vanished without a trace.
This guy, perhaps he first hid away himself?
Just moments ago urged Han Yu into a risky situation, and then he fled, this guy became even more shameless after changing his face.
"If he weren’t afraid of dying, why would he cooperate with you?"
The Artifact Spirit curled its lips; Chasing Soul’s little thoughts were clear. The more Han Yu acted out, the more Yama Hall’s attention would shift to him, making Chasing Soul relatively safer.
Chasing Soul indeed ran away. He had thought before, with the Celestial Dao Sect folks drawing fire in the Endless Sea Domain, and Han Yu over in the Central Continent.
However, that was predicated on Yama Hall playing by the rules. If the Bi Luo Five Envoys emerged, things would be different, with the Celestial Dao Sect inevitably suffering.
And in the Central Continent, the closer to Han Yu, the quicker one would die.
He had to make more plans for himself.
...
You think you’re great, you’re aloof!
You secretly welcomed the Five Envoys.
You washed your hands clean,
Xin Zui looked at the six avatars of the Split Soul, gritting his teeth. He wasn’t surprised that Yama Hall sent someone to fill the vacancy. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
But for the Five Envoys to personally arrive was beyond his expectation.
What surprised him even more was that the always-bottom-ranking Split Soul backstabbed everyone by sneaking off to welcome them, and knowing the nature of the Split Soul, they probably didn’t even say a good word about them.
If he couldn’t act, Xin Zui wished he could destroy these six avatars altogether.
The purpose for which the avatars came was straightforward, to convey the orders of the Five Envoys.
But what about their heart demons of the five? Would they just be let go?
The heart demon naturally was nothing rare, but it took away half their strength!
"The Lord said the task is urgent, delaying might incur wrath."
The avatars, still unaware of being resented by three Dao-entering cultivators, continued speaking blissfully ignorant.
Xin Yin was the first to lose composure, his old face momentarily chilled, "What did you tell the Five Envoys?"
This damn thing, although it might not dare to spread falsehoods, skimming off details was enough to sink them.
The Split Soul was both wronged and not entirely wronged, having indeed omitted details. Regarding Han Yu’s extraordinary rise, the Split Soul didn’t dare shirk responsibility, instead deliberately emphasizing Han Yu’s enigmatic power.
But for what Han Yu did in the Endless Sea Domain, the Split Soul had pushed aside entirely, blaming Chasing Soul for the deaths at Yama Hall, leaving himself spotless.
Seize Soul was betrayed by Chasing Soul, Hawker coveted secrets on Han Yu, and Doctor was being harassed by the Celestial Dao Sect.
Yi Hong, Gu Feng, and Wen Xiong didn’t even have to be mentioned, all three left for the Central Continent and only one returned, embarrassed.
As for Xin Zui and the others, though they were obstinately seeking heart demons, from one perspective, they were played by Han Yu as soon as they emerged, appearing utterly incompetent to the Five Envoys.
If the Five Envoys’ attitudes were dictated by these narrations, one needn’t wonder; it wouldn’t bode well for them.
"What to do?"
Wuyin exchanged a glance with Xin Yin and then asked Xin Zui beside him.
"Go back first to see the Five Envoys."
Xin Zui’s face was incredibly grim, as important as the heart demon might be, they couldn’t afford to ignore the Five Envoys’ orders.
In the palace, five figures gathered, facing the belated group, Lei Wang didn’t show any kindness.
"Greetings, Five Envoys."
Xin Zui led the bow, and the group behind him did the same.
"No need to rise in haste, speak of your disgraceful affairs while kneeling."
Lei Wang sneered, scanning around, only to find the Split Soul wasn’t speaking falsely, as this group was actually toyed with by a mere youngster to an utterly exhausted state.
From his perspective, not only were Xin Zui and two others fatigued, inexplicably more than half of their aura was gone; even looking at Gu Feng and Doctor, they appeared thoroughly miserable.
Ten people reduced to laughingstock, it’s hard not to rile him up.
Xin Zui and the other two exchanged pained looks, ashamed as they were. Given the chance to capture Han Yu, they fell instead to a scheme.
Before the Bi Luo Five Envoys, no matter the embarrassment, they couldn’t hide it, and so recounted everything in detail.
"Pills?"
"Are you saying that rascal handed you a pill for enlightenment, but it instead spawned heart demons that took half your power?"
Lei Wang’s face, usually unperturbed, now bore interest; a pill capable of affecting Dao-entering cultivators was remarkable.
Coupled with the Split Soul’s tales of Han Yu’s peculiar prowess, it indeed warranted their attention.
"So will the Five Envoys act against him?"
Xin Zui hastily asked.
"No rush, a young brat won’t leap around for long. Gather up, for I plan to extinguish all that the Celestial Dao Sect has here first."
Lei Wang’s words caused a change in everyone’s expressions below.
The Holy Sect was making a big move!
Indeed so, with the Bi Luo Five Envoys here, how could it be a small affair?
Xin Zui realized rather slowly, but upon piecing it together, his spirit lifted. Did it imply the Holy Sect’s grand plan was finally commencing?
