Chapter 207 - Old Yan
Chapter 207 - Old Yan
After the angry and thunderous voice faded, a majestic figure suddenly materialized in the sky. He was about five to six feet tall. His skin was white as snow and he appeared to be extremely slender.
The figure looked as though he was in his thirties. He was dressed in an Emperor's robe and was wearing a crown.
Normally, this figure would look aloof and cold as if he was made of the ice itself, but now, his expression was twisted with rage.
His pair of eyes were as bright and hot as two suns, wanting to burn everything in sight.
"Thunder Demi-God Ye....." Seeing the majestic figure that just emerged from the sky, the spectators in the far distance couldn't help but cry out in fright.
Indeed, this man was none other than Thunder Demi-God Ye! One of the strongest Demi-Gods in the Heaven Suppression Region.
....
Meanwhile, right after Thunder Demi-God Ye emerged in the sky where the battle was taking place,
Chilah!
There was the sound like that of a piece of paper being ripped apart as a huge crack suddenly appeared in the sky a few hundred kilometers south of Black Iron City.
At the same time, a barefoot and sloppy-looking old man dressed in tattered robe walked out from the crack. He was also followed by an azure robe middle-aged man.
Once the two of them walked out the crack that appeared in the sky, the huge crack suddenly closed on itself as though it never appeared in the first place.
"Old Yuan, Are you sure that Thunder Demi-God Ye won't be able to kill the Fateless Monster?" Suddenly asked the azure robe middle-aged man as he was looking into the direction of Black Iron City with an anxious look on his face.
Even though he was very tempted by the Fateless Monster's devouring ability which allowed him to swallow sentient beings and strengthened himself, he still didn't dare to make a move on him.
It wasn't because he was afraid of the Fateless Monster or because he was a good person, but because he knew just how important he was for their plan.
Upon hearing the azure robe middle-aged man's question, the barefoot and raggedy old man suddenly shifted his gaze towards the direction of Black Iron City, revealing a glare capable of crossing space and time itself.
"Don't worry. Even if I were to shoot, I wouldn't be able to kill the Fateless Monster, let alone that greedy little brat." Answered the barefoot old man with an indifferent voice. It was if this fact didn't bother him at all.
" What!"
Meanwhile, the azure robe middle-aged man's heart trembled violently upon hearing the old man's sudden answer.
The Azure robe middle-aged knew just how frightening that old man was. Even though they were both Demi-Gods, he was still unable to grasp just how powerful the old man fully was. He was like a bottomless pit.
The old man was the oldest and the strongest Demi-God throughout the whole Great Luo World. He's the main reason that the Beast Gods and the Divine Demon Beast Region didn't dare to invade the Heaven Suppression Region despite their superior strength.
The old man was simply unrivaled throughout the world. He was an old monster that had lived through two previous generations of Demi-Gods. In fact, he was already a Demi-God even before this generation of the Demi-Gods was born.
Even Thunder Demi-God Ye who's considered as the third most powerful Demi-God in the Heaven Suppression Region was nothing but a child when facing the old man, yet, the old man said even himself was unable to kill the Fateless Monster.
Since when did he become that strong!
Seeing the azure robe middle-aged man's expression, the barefoot old man dressed in tattered robes could clearly tell what he was thinking as he clarified ."It's not that he is that strong but it's because he is being protected by a terrifying existence."
"What! There's someone even more powerful than you in this world." The azure robe middle-aged man was even more confused and frightened upon hearing the old man's words.
The raggedy old man's forehead creased as he smiled dejectedly." Hahaha. Little Hundred Eyes, this world is even more complicated and deeper than you think. I might seem unrivaled in this world in your eyes, but I am nothing but a pawn in that man's game."
Upon hearing the old man's words as well as seeing the dejected look on his face, the azure robe middle-aged man also known as Hundred Eyes couldn't help but lower his head in shame.
His eyes were filled with unwillingness and reluctance. As a Demi-God, he was privy to some secrets. As such, he had an idea about what the old man was talking about.
While the whole world viewed them as Gods and existences that stood at the apex of this world, they knew that they were in fact nothing but pawns and prisoners, and this world was their cage.
Not only they had no hope of breaking through the legendary Martial God realm, but they also had no way of leaving this world with their own strength. This world in itself was a prison or cage while they were the prisoners.
It was also the main reason that Thunder Demi-God Ye was so obsessed with the Fateless Monster. Unlike them or everyone in this world, the Fateless Monster was not bound by the law of this world.
He was like an existence separated from Heaven and Earth. Unlike them, as long as he's strong enough, he could break through the membrane that protected this world and leave.
Because of this, Thunder Demi-God Ye wanted to kill him and refined him into some sort of Fate Severing Blood Pill to break away from this prison despite the warning of Old Yan.
Although Hundred Eyes and the other Demi-Gods had the same idea, they didn't dare act on it. Not only he was essential for their plan to finally break away from this world, but they also weren't sure that they could easily kill him despite their strength.
The scene where the Divination Demigod went crazy and turned into a vegetable while trying to simply investigate him was still fresh in their mind.
"Alright, let's hurry to the Divine Demon Beast Region to meet with the Beast Gods. Now that everything is ready, it's time to open the Great Luo Tomb. This is gonna be our last chance to break away from the grasp of that man as well as this world." The barefoot old man added before his body and the azure middle-aged man suddenly disappeared from the sky.
