Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 961: Chapter 457: Scheming (Part 2)

That’s great, find an opportunity, sneak up and stab her. Although the method is a bit underhanded, but what are human rights to a Chaos Chosen?

Even if he has a Holy Artifact, he wouldn’t have time to use it!

As it turned out, this sub-branch has two Holy Artifacts, and one is even worn on Lord Fallen Wish’s finger.

Truly extravagant, some sub-branches of the Blood God don’t even necessarily have a Chaos Holy Artifact.

Do I have to find a time when she’s not wearing the ring?

Does she take it off when she bathes?

It’s difficult, after Li Yelai counteracts the Heartless Fruit, Fallen Wish might notice changes in the Heartless Fruit.

There might not be much time and opportunity.

The conflict is very likely to erupt in an instant.

But if we were to kill Fallen Wish in advance… that’s even more impossible, the plan to counter the Heartless Fruit would also go up in smoke.

Li Yelai looked at his palm, then clenched his fist hard.

Feeling the power within him.

‘Do I have to confront the Chaos Holy Artifact head-on?’ Li Yelai thought, ‘Won’t it just wipe me out directly?’

Li Yelai’s current combat power is indeed formidable, enabling him to use two Faces simultaneously, making his combat power approach that of an Overlord. He can also transform into a Causality Level Divine Calamity, which actually gives him an advantage in combating Overlords.

But even so, it is unlikely that Li Yelai could face the Chaos Holy Artifact directly.

It is a powerful trump card of the Chaos Faction, and its projection can even reach Supreme Strength.

‘At the very least, we need to find a way to stall those two Chaos Holy Artifacts…’ Li Yelai quickly conceived in his mind, recalling the two Exotic Beast corpses still stored in the Treasure Vault.

The corpses of the Fierce Beast Taowu and Frost Ancient Dragon are well preserved and were of Overlord-level strength when alive.

If the Nether River Horn is used… they will temporarily be resurrected. Although the corpses will be consumed afterward, Li Yelai would lose Old Ma No.8 and No.9.

But two resurrected Overlords in the Treasure Vault… could they also divert some attention? Forcing the Church to use a Chaos Holy Artifact?

Additionally… the gaze from the depths of the tomb.

Could it be the Nameless King buried there? If so, what state is he in now? Is he still alive?

Questions surfaced one after another, making Li Yelai ponder for a long time.

Currently, there is no companion by his side, and he can’t enter the ark, leaving him without anyone to discuss with, forcing him to plan alone.

As his thoughts expanded, Li Yelai realized that the problems are not limited to these.

The authority of this relic is quite powerful.

It was originally the authority of the Tomb Guardian, allowing free movement within the tomb and free access to some confidential locations through different permissions.

Those without permission will be attacked by residual sound avatars and cannot activate passages to some confidential locations.

This was the authority left by the Mingxia Civilization to the Tomb Guardian, preserving the civilization’s heritage, allowing the Tomb Guardian to safely pass on knowledge and enable rapid development of human civilization here.

But now, all of this has been controlled by the Jile Sect.

Within the sub-branch, the highest authority should be the Divine Chosen Fallen Wish, and now Li Yelai is placed in the second tier of authority. Perhaps if fighting breaks out, his authority will be revoked.

Li Yelai might encounter attacks from the residual sound avatars.

‘Still, we must first determine the identity and status of that existence within the tomb.’

While Li Yelai was contemplating countermeasures.

Divine Chosen Fallen Wish, along with her Demon General and high-level members, began a secret meeting.

“Didn’t notice anything wrong, and on top of that, his Chaotic Aura is getting stronger.”

“However, he seems quite interested in the items in the Treasure Vault. He had noticeable emotional fluctuations when entering the Vault.”

“Heh, even as a Champion Agent, he can’t obtain so many precious resources. Naturally, he is tempted.”

“Alright, stop comparing him to Granny Liu visiting a mansion.”

“Actually, it’s best this way. Display those inherited artifacts and let him study them for a few days. We need more time to prepare the ritual.”

“Hmm…”

“But he is the Champion Agent after all. Even after Lord Fallen Wish hinted at him, he wasn’t swayed and just went back to his room? That’s astonishing; his reaction was too calm.”

As a Chosen of Jile, Fallen Wish naturally has great looks and temperament, but that guy showed no reaction to her hints and invitations.

“What else? Why do you think we hate Champions so much?” One Jile Demon General shook his head, “But this is where it ends. Once he becomes a Divine Chosen, he will surely unleash his desires. Master, afterward, you will have a taste of the Champion.”

“It’s a bit regretful…” Fallen Wish replied lazily, “After becoming a Divine Chosen, he probably won’t have the same flavor.”

“Yes, we all understand your preferences, master…” the senior members laughed among themselves.

As a Divine Chosen, Fallen Wish’s hobby is to destroy beautiful things, pulling noble and sacred existences down into the dirt, defiling them wantonly.

Right now, Li Yelai is wearing the Champion Cloak; although his Chaotic Aura is strong, his consciousness hasn’t fully changed. He is still a Champion Agent or a future Champion, and his looks are quite handsome.

His identity and appearance perfectly align with her preferences, and she truly wants to experience the strength of a Champion.

Watching him pant, watching his face flush, watching him eagerly reaching out, unable to stop himself later…

But after becoming a Divine Chosen, that might not be as appealing.

“If you really want him, should we all gang up and help you with him?” a Demon General suggested, “Although it’s quite challenging… but we do have medicines to assist.”

“Yes, yes, there’s so many of us, and before he exhausts his Spiritual Energy, he might not be able to kill us all.” Another senior member laughed as they spoke.

“Indeed, calling in an Overlord could be promising…”

Of course, these are jokes; in this situation, they wouldn’t dare provoke Li Yelai.

Not to mention his strength, if pushed too far and he defected to the Blood God, they’d have nowhere to weep.

“By the way, it seems that the servant Lan Shi plans to take over some of the power.”

“Then let him have it. During this period, fulfill whatever he wants. Although I don’t know what name he will be granted, his status will certainly be high… and he will inevitably gain the favor of our master.” Fallen Wish thought aloud, “I just wonder which name it will be… Dark Evil, Huo Yan?”

“Speaking of names, there’s reliable information that a Chosen of the Dual Gods has appeared in both the Blood God and Eternal Life Sects,” a senior member said, “but extremely mysteriously, we only know his titled name… Emperor’s Fall!”

“A supreme title of the Blood God Faction? Interesting, really want to meet him.” Fallen Wish smirked, “I also wonder if he can compete against our Champion?”

Right now, the Jile Sect is being besieged by the Eternal Life and Blood God Sects, with heavy losses across various sub-branches.

This filled her with great hostility toward the two Sects.

Though a Chosen of the Dual Gods is rare, it’s not unheard of; the Jile and Eternal Life Sects each have a Chosen of the Dual Gods.

Currently, Fallen Wish is arrogant; who doesn’t know the power of a Champion?

And soon, she and the Jile Church will have a Champion!

This makes everyone around her appear like a fool!

Some Chosen of the Dual Gods? Get lost if you can’t beat a Champion!

….

The next day, Li Yelai saw the result of Lan Shi’s efforts throughout the night.

Li Yelai didn’t quite understand how he managed to have the Spiritual Ability Craftsmen create it in such a short time.

A brand new set of A-level quality Ming Guang Armor!

Compared to the officially crafted armor, this set was no less in craftsmanship, and even more beautiful.

The Black Gold woven armor plates were engraved with subtle mysterious patterns.

It’s truly the Jile Sect, with no shortage of novelties.

“It fits well.” After changing into the armor, Li Yelai nodded at Lan Shi, praising, “You’ve done well…”

“It is my duty, my lord.” Lan Shi humbly nodded, “The Mad Dragon can be fully restored and armoured by tomorrow.”

To complete the task quickly and well, he used both coercion and inducement successfully leveraging almost all the Spiritual Ability Craftsmen in the sub-branch.

He knew this was the only way to leave a good impression on Li Yelai.

Li Yelai naturally didn’t care about that, enjoying wearing the complimentary armor!
