Chapter 623: Resolve It Yourselves

“Couldn’t even stand against an invader, you are not qualified to be a manager at all.” Chao Kun’s gaze became colder, as if he had found his courage again, he became increasingly bold and assured in his speech. “To have the plane in your hands is a calamity for all the living creatures in the world, I merely made the most correct choice!”

“You’re spouting nonsense!” Mu Xiang’s aura was unstable, she attempted to charge out of the sword array but was blocked again. “Chao Kun, you were the one who caused this plane to be disastrously damaged, plunging people in misery and suffering and even left me wandering in the chaos for so many years. You’ve never cared about this plane, in your eyes, all the while, it was only a tool to you.”

“That’s absolutely a load of bull!” He sneered coldly as his gaze dimmed. “I thought you’d merely acted on impulse back then, I didn’t think that you’ve never changed? Forcefully converting the original source this time, how many living creatures in the world will die because they’re unable to stand it. This plane has already been destroyed by you once, now you still want to ruin it a second time!”

“You are the one turning matters upside down!” Mu Xiang was enraged and started mad attempts to charge out of the sword array.

“Madam and Sirs...” Chao Kun instead turned towards Lonemoon and others, saying with cupped fists, “These are grievances between me and her, no matter who is right and who is wrong, it has nothing to do with the living beings. I can give up on my position as a manager but we absolutely cannot allow her to continue converting the original source. I ask you all, on the account of all these living beings, please do not fall for her tricks.”

Lonemoon glanced at Chao Kun who had worry written all over his face, at this point, he’d finally figured out some facts. This means that Mu Xiang was indeed the original manager of this plane, but was later on replaced by Chao Kun. This means of replacing wasn’t very legitimate, evidently that Big Dao Organization had a hand in it too. That’s why she had so much resentment towards him.

However, the converting of original source would indeed have a huge effect on the living beings, the ‘Fallen Night’ that they’d heard of in the little world was it. Those people who died, died because they couldn’t bear the conversion of the original source. And it was the same for those blue-skinned people too, it was just a matter of whether the effect was small or big.

If things continued this way, by the time the original source of the plane turns completely black, the effect would be even greater.

However...

Lonemoon let out a laugh.

He must admit that Chao Kun was a very clever person, even after his secret of having schemed and seized the plane was exposed, he also knew which way of acting was the most advantageous for him. It could be seen from what he was saying now, it was all talk of worrying about the survival of the plane, worrying about living beings. He’d sufficiently displayed the attitude of a manager compromising for the big picture and soundlessly placed a huge label of ‘destroying the people’s lives’ to completely shut off their way and the possibility of them changing sides.

He could not help but turn back to look towards the person in the sword array.

Mu Xiang’s eyes were even redder, yet she could fight back at all. A trace of despair surfaced on a face as she glared hatefully at the others. “Hmph! You can kill me if you want, as long as I have a shred of remnant soul left, I will never let all of you off!”

“Sir, if we let her...”

“I have no interest in the mess between you two!” Lonemoon cut him off directly. His eyes narrowed as he looked at him from top to bottom. “Why don’t... you first explain, how did you so coincidentally wake up after we entered the Underworld?”

“...” Chao Kun’s expression changed.

“Why can’t you say it?” Lonemoon said with an icy smile. “Why don’t I say it for you. You knew from the very start that the invader was her. You also knew she was converting the original source, but the Underworld was sealed, you couldn’t enter at all. The only way was to find one capable enough to make it in, so you set your sights on us. Made use of us to open the realm gate, then effortlessly reaped the benefits.”

“Sir... I wasn’t!” He became flustered and frantically explained. “I really had no intention of making use of you all, everything I said is true. Initially, she wasn’t the only one who invaded this plane, I really couldn’t deal with him, so I approached you all...”

“Is that so?” Lonemoon’s smile widened. “So you mean, you knew the situation but intentionally got us to be cannon fodders to scout a path? And when it was ascertained that it was safe, you then appeared?”

“No, Sir, it was really for the plane that I...”

“Your plane is none of my business!”

“...”

Hmph! Trying to play moral blackmail with them, he ought to check whether they were willing or not.

Chao Kun’s face became even paler, unable to find any words to refute him in that moment.

Whereas Mu Xiang at the side laughed out loud. “Hahaha... admit it Chao Kun, you’ve always been such a despicable scoundrel. In order to achieve your objective, you can do anything.”

“You...” Chao Kun’s expression became even more upset as he was stumped for words. Moments later, he then looked towards Shen Ying bewilderedly. “Madam, please believe me, I did not intentionally make use of you all.”

Shen Ying cocked her head to a side, only responding a while after. “Oh.”

“...” What does oh mean?

But Shen Ying ignored him and stepped forward, setting her eyes on the person in the sword array.

“Come, let us finish this talk.” With that said, she took her bite out of her fruit and went on, “Can you tell me who sent you back to this plane? What is he?”

Mu Xiang faltered for a moment and voiced out subconsciously, “Why should I tell you?”

“On the account that we won’t interfere in the matters between you and Chao Kun anymore.” Lonemoon chimed in directly.

“S... Sir!” Chao Kun’s expression changed.

“Sure!” Something flashed across Mu Xiang’s eyes, after looking her up and down, she hesitated for a while before saying, “I do not know who the person is, but he was indeed the one who opened the sealed plane and aided my return.”

“What does he look like?”

“I don’t know.” She shook her head. “His capabilities are far beyond a manager’s, I couldn’t get a clear look of his appearance at all. He suddenly appeared in the chaos and said he would help me seek justice, then he sent me back here.”

“And then?”

“After telling me the method of converting the original source, he disappeared.” She seemed to recall something incomprehensible and said with a smile. “I never saw him again after that.”

“I see...” Shen Ying’s eyes narrowed, stepping forward, she shoved the green little ball she was holding in her hands. “Thank you!”

Mu Xiang was stunned, her eyes widening abruptly as she stared at the green ball in her hands in disbelief. “You...”

“Madam!” On the other side, Chao Kun paled instantly.

Shen Ying did not stop and directly turned around to open the plane gate, saying as she walked, “I’m starving, Chef, Father Niu, let’s go home for dinner!”

“Yes, Master. No problem, Master.”

Lonemoon gave the two a glance and followed.

The moment the plane gate closed, they could faintly hear fighting once again. This time, the odds were against Chao Kun.

“Chao Kun! The time to settle the feuds of the plane has come!”
