Chapter 1468: Second Cloudbreach Transformation (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

After a short silence, Mo Duona said, "Before entering the mansion, I received a treasure from the Devil Emperor. It is an ancient talisman capable of breaking through all formations and spatial restrictions. It was left behind by an incomparably powerful ancient expert. I can use the talisman to approach the skylotus the moment it starts blooming. Then, I'll hand it over to you. Nobody will notice it. I will flee to attract everyone's attention."

Su Yu laughed and said, "That must be something the Devil Pseudo Emperor gave you to preserve your life. I doubt it was meant for you to snatch the treasure from the Invincibles here."

"Yes." Mo Duona asked in surprise, "How do you know that?"

Su Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think the skylotus is so easy to snatch? Do you know that it's not so easy to harvest? It can bloom nine times. The intervals are fixed. You need to harvest it nine times for it to count. Also, there is a timespace tunnel behind it. If you're careless, you might fall into the River of Time accidentally. Don't you know this?"

Mo Duona shook his head blankly. Nope. He had no idea. Su Yu frowned. Since the old turtle knew that, the other ancient experts should know that as well. Was it possible that these ancient experts had been keeping this fact secret?

No matter what, Mo Duona was being nurtured as the future body of the Devil Pseudo Emperor. Was there a need for the Devil Pseudo Emperor to hide this from him?

"Looks like the devils are really unaware of this."

When Su Yu thought about it, he realized that all the devils from the ancient past must have died. Thus, it was likely that the devils were unaware of this. Were the immortals aware of this?

Tiangu was ancient, but he was nothing back then. He was different from the old turtle who had entered the Devote King's residence in the ancient past. Back then, this wasn't a place just anyone could enter. In that case, was the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion aware of this?

Su Yu was unsure. But he had a feeling that some other people would be aware of this as well. Thus, the skylotus wouldn't be so easy to snatch. Was Mo Duona trying to solicit his help with only this? What a beautiful dream.

Mo Duona frowned and said, "At the very least, I can harvest it once for you."

"That's not enough. It's pointless." Su Yu rubbed his chin and said, "The skylotus isn't easy to harvest. Furthermore, you're in deep trouble after killing so many immortals. They won't let this slide."

With a grin, Su Yu said, "Let's sow more chaos. Try to let He Tu in. Get the devils and immortals to start fighting each other. You're an important seed of the Devil Pseudo Emperor. I believe some of the devil kings on this level belong to the Devil Pseudo Emperor's line, right?"

"Yes." Mo Duona nodded, "What do you suggest?"

"What else? Sow chaos." Su Yu said, "You're now an enemy of the Devil Pseudo Emperor. His people are your enemies. Do you care so much about your fellow devils that you can't stand against them?"

"Not at all." Mo Duona said, "I don't want to turn against the devils, but I also don't want to turn into a puppet. You have the courage to walk away from the humans. I, Mo Duona, might be untalented, but I have the courage to walk away from the devils as well."

He did not want to turn against the devils. But the devils found it acceptable to sacrifice him to heal their Pseudo Emperor and regain some stability. Just like the multiple character faction, Mo Duona was viewed as a necessary sacrifice. His sacrifice was necessary for the greater good. But that was not something he could accept.

Su Yu sneered, "Walking away from the devils? Do you even have the ability to do so? Sure, you are strong enough to face Sunmoons. But without the Devil Pseudo Emperor's blood essence and the devils, what can you do? You will be nothing after leaving the devils."

Mo Duona sank into silence. Yes. He was different from Su Yu. Su Yu had nothing even back when he was with the humans. Thus, leaving would not matter much.

Mo Duona was different. He had been nurtured as a top genius from a young age. He was backed by Invincibles. Even the Devil Pseudo Emperor was one of his backers. He was supplied with countless treasures and resources. His ancestor and master were also Invincibles. He had received the support of all of them.

What would he be after leaving the devils? He was merely someone capable of fighting Sunmoons. What was the big deal about that?

Su Yu asked, "How will walking away from them benefit you? The devils have been treating you well. The Devil Pseudo Emperor will only touch you after you become a ninth-stage Sunmoon. Why are you in such a rush to leave? Milk as much benefits as you can from them before thinking of leaving."

Mo Duona thought about it and said, "But if I wait that long, I won't have the chance to leave anymore. Why do you think I have remained a Cloudbreach for so long? I can advance, but I'm unwilling. I have been planning my departure, but the Devil Emperor has lost his tri-life body too early. You ruined my plan, Su Yu."

Su Yu was left speechless. How was that his fault? It was Soy Bun's fault. But he couldn't deny that Soy Bun had acted because of him.

He couldn't be bothered to argue. He said, "Just sow chaos. It's time for you to leave. As for your offer, bring me the nine-leaf skylotus and I'll consider it."

Mo Duona sank into silence. He did not bother to say more. He understood that it was pointless to say more without the skylotus in hand. He still had to do some work himself. With that, he left the Martial Hall.

Inside the hall, Su Yu slowly turned translucent. Instead of leaving, he stayed inside to prevent anyone from noticing him. The residence would remain locked for some time. He was in no rush to leave. He would give Mo Duona the chance to attract more attention before leaving.

But after this, he could no longer maintain his identity as an immortal. So be it. It was time for him to pick a different identity.

***

When Mo Duona walked out of the Martial Hall, the numerous Invincibles above the residence turned solemn. The immortal kings had ashen expressions.

Mo Duona!

Damn him!

Even as the future body of the Devil Pseudo Emperor, he must die. They couldn't spare him or the reputation of the immortal race would fall apart.

The devil kings had unsightly expressions as well. Things were getting troublesome.

Mo Duona casually strolled through the Devote King's residence. Everyone in his way would hurriedly move away with complicated expressions. First, Su Yu, the butcher, had emerged. He was the number one expert on the Heaven Index.

And now, Mo Duona had changed as well. He, too, was the number one expert on the Heaven Index.

At the thought of Mo Duona's madness, many felt regret. However, they weren't surprised. Many of them were aware that Mo Duona was simply being raised as a seed of the Devil Pseudo Emperor. This was not something anyone would accept.

With Mo Duona's departure, a large number of people started rushing toward the Martial Hall.

Perhaps some spoils would be left behind from the battle.

Perhaps Mo Duona would leave some storage rings behind.

Someone like him might not deign to collect such spoils.

***

Inside the Martial Hall.

Su Yu focused on the people busy searching the hall. Perhaps one of them would serve as his next disguise. He could simply pick a random person. Since not even he was aware of his next identity, his enemies would definitely be unaware as well.

Before long, the vision of a divine near Su Yu darkened. Before he could react, he vanished, replaced by another person. He had been replaced smoothly. A ninth-stage Mountainsea was added to the divine page of Su Yu's book.

Su Yu started immersing himself in the past of his latest victim.

A nearby divine asked, "Yun Hao, what is it? Did you find anything?"

Su Yu recovered from his reverie and shook his head, "Nope. Let's go. When the residence is unlocked, the Invincibles will be here. We don't want to stay long enough to meet them."

"Sure, let's go. Mo Duona has changed. In the past, he would always leave some spoils behind after killing. This time, he left nothing."

The divine sighed regretfully. The others who were also searching the hall sighed as well. Yes. Mo Duona had changed. In the past, he wouldn't deign to collect the spoils after killing someone.

Then again, it was understandable. Most of his victims this time were geniuses and experts. Even someone as arrogant as him would not be willing to leave the belongings of these people behind.

The experts started leaving the hall one after another. It wouldn't be a good idea to stay here for long lest the furious immortal kings start killing indiscriminately in anger.
