Netherworld Retrograde
Chapter 1371 694: Since That's the Case, Let's Sleep FirstAfter finalizing the battle tactics, the two took turns resting and keeping watch.
This had long been an unspoken understanding and routine between them.
When one needed rest, the other would stand guard, ensuring no danger approached.
Thus, Li Yelai fell into a peaceful sleep on the luxurious bed specially prepared by the Chaos believers.
To provide Li Yelai, the Divine Chosen, proper hospitality in the Land of Opportunity, the Chaos believers had painstakingly placed this furniture within their spatial equipment.
After drifting at sea for so long and wandering in the Land of Opportunity, he indeed needed a moment of rest.
With the Little Mad King by his side keeping watch, Li Yelai felt at ease even while undercover in the enemy's stronghold, entrusting her as always with his back.
And the Little Mad King enjoyed the feeling of being trusted.
The curse of suspicion was too vicious, affecting even those like the Old Mad King who adopted her or Pang Yu who took care of her.
In their interactions, she had to rely on her absolute rationality to suppress judgments affected by the curse of suspicion.
The Old Mad King relied on his kingly demeanor, Jiuli bloodline, and the unshakeable confidence of a Bronze Demon God.
He believed he wouldn't be poisoned by a glass of water offered by a little girl and thus drank it without hesitation.
Their clumsy efforts to trust her made the Little Mad King grateful yet bitter.
But fortunately, she met a teammate who completely trusted her.
Though occasionally, she was scolded and lectured...
According to Moon Shadow Captain, this was compensation for her lack of paternal love from a young age.
The Little Mad King didn't like that saying.
However, in a quiet moment deep in the night, the Little Mad King, sitting by the bed, looked outside.
Li Yelai, who had been asleep, also opened his eyes.
In the Void Realm, a kind of call seemed to resonate. Like a roar, a wail, more like a plea for help.
Among them, some Spiritual Energy Fluctuations from Champion Team One could even be sensed.
Meanwhile, in the distant night sky, fireworks erupted.
It was a distress signal from Ye Boshou!
"How cunning..." Li Yelai and the Little Mad King exchanged a glance, simultaneously thinking. However, they had no intention of going to the rescue.
Because they both understood that in the Land of Opportunity, it was just the two of them with official combat strength.
The reinforcements from Giant City had not yet entered the Land of Opportunity, otherwise, Captain Yang Chen's iron fist would have already fallen on the aliens.
Meanwhile, Champion Team One and tens of thousands of Imitative Heavenly Soldiers would trample down all human enemies.
And in the eyes of the Heavenly Destiny Walker, the Human Champion had entered the Land of Opportunity, very likely with teammates.
Hence, the plan was to fake an attack on teammates to lure out the Ninth Generation Champion, even imitating the Spiritual Energy Fluctuations of Team One to make the battle more realistic, with no flaws at all. Normally, such a plan might mislead, even if not going to aid, the Little Mad King would investigate a bit.
However, unfortunately, the Heavenly Destiny Walker had the tactics but completely wrong intelligence.
"Since that's the case, let's sleep first." Li Yelai said to the Little Mad King.
Calculating the time, it was also time to switch shifts with her.
Although a Sixth Sense, Li Yelai's physical body was Overlord-level, and an hour's rest was enough.
The Little Mad King nodded slightly, not refusing.
She quickly shed her outer robe and slipped into the bed that still held some warmth.
...
Elsewhere, Wanderer Wei Yang admired the battlefield they had fabricated.
In the battlefield, shadows moved, but upon closer inspection, one could see that none of these shadows were life forms. Instead, they were synthetic flesh created from large amounts of peculiar materials. They could also be considered...alchemy.
"The decoys Zi Shu gave me are really useful, although they're of the old version." Wei Yang looked around, with nearly a thousand traps set up there, not a single one triggered.
"Did it fail? It's really hard to deceive, isn't it?" Wanderer Wei Yang sighed, then looked at the two groups of people drawn in.
Among them was the Blood Spirit Family, partners with the Heavenly Destiny Walker.
They shared with each other the technology of disguising Spiritual Energy Fluctuations and the alchemical flesh synthesis of the Heavenly Destiny Walker.
"Lord Wei Yang, it seems we couldn't lure out the one you wanted." The Family Head of the Blood Spirit Family, a middle-aged man so handsome it seemed out of place, looked at the distant figures and smiled, "Instead, we've attracted someone unexpected."
"Well, whatever. If it were that easy to be fooled, it wouldn't be called a Variable." Wei Yang tossed out a blood-colored gemstone, "This is the deposit, the Wise Stone you wanted. As for the method of refinement, you'll get it once the Champion is dead."
Wei Yang wasn't interested in the Snow Spirit Family Head, but she was quite intrigued by his descendants, especially the girl with unmatched beauty.
The girl seemed to notice her gaze, raised her eyes to meet it, revealed a stunningly beautiful smile, and bowed slightly.
'Fused with the bloodlines of several Forbidden Zone royal families? Though thin, there are unique features. It was an investment not wasted over the years...' Wei Yang thought, then looked to the other side.
Unexpectedly, yet fittingly, it did not lure out the Human Champion, but instead, it drew in Hero Zhen Yuan.
Zhen Yuan, upon discovering the battlefield's truth, turned and left in silence.
While agreeing to join in the siege of the Variable, he wouldn't allow a trap to kill human strongmen?
What a laughable notion, not understanding destiny's choices, it seems.
Wei Yang wasn't concerned, only slightly regretted.
Directly drawing out the Champion wasn't very likely; her true target was actually the assassin who would likely come for a covert investigation.
In the end, not even coming to check it out? Isn't that a bit too calm?
Was it trust in her teammates, or had she sensed her plan?
Wei Yang thought that if the Blade of Revenge also happened to be in the Land of Opportunity, she would surely come to investigate.
And upon capturing her, it would be two birds with one stone.
Taking her to Emperor's Fall's bed, the Heroic Bloodline Inheritance plan would succeed.
What? Not even taking it when offered? Then Wei Yang would have to suspect that Emperor's Fall was contaminated by the Champion.
By that time, the Champion would certainly be enraged and take action, not allowing their teammate to be defiled, achieving a dual purpose.
Of course, she'd never know.
That Blade of Revenge is currently on Emperor's Fall's bed...
....
The next day, Lou Su Walker saw more Chaos Army assembling.
At the same time, many Chaos forces received orders to depart.
Now, the Chaos Army had established contact, and Li Yelai had become a Divine Chosen in command of powerful military forces.
Exploring the ruins of various civilizations on this continent naturally didn't require personal involvement.
Just dispatch Demon Generals by pointing, or cooperate with other forces, or conquer alone.
He only needed to wait there, and a steady stream of supplies would arrive.
And Lou Su Walker also noticed that those Chaos Demon Generals were quite excited.
This made Lou Su chuckle, thinking, as Lord Wei Yang had said, the Chaos Faction wouldn't miss the opportunity for an Eternal Chosen One to descend!
