Bai Li Shang was currently in the cultivation room, pondering over the black sphere in his hand. The uneven patterns on the black sphere were emitting light, illuminating the surroundings.
'How do I break it? '
'What exactly is the secret? 'Bai Li Shang was racking his brains. He was clear that this was his greatest harvest, his most important fortuitous encounter! If he could unravel the secret within, his fate would most likely be different. It was just that with the relic in his hand, Bai Li Shang could not unravel it.
Suddenly, a voice came from outside. "Commander Bai Li, Commander Bai Li."
This cultivation room array could transmit sounds from the outside, but not from within.
"Mn?" Bai Li Shang frowned. He immediately kept the black sphere in the wooden box before opening the stone door and exiting the cultivation room.
"What's going on? Didn't I say not to disturb me if there's nothing important?" Bai Li Shang swept his gaze around and immediately saw a World Deity guard outside. He could recognize that this World Deity guard was usually in charge of guarding the hall.
The World Deity guard chuckled. "Commander Bai Li, His Highness has ordered for you to meet him immediately."
"His Highness?" Bai Li Shang was startled. "Alright, I'll head over now."
...
Bai Li Shang rushed towards the hall with a confused look on his face. He had been under Dongbo Xue Ying for so many years, and he had never been forcefully summoned to meet him while he was in closed-door cultivation. After all, after dealing with the Venomous Ying World Deity, no one dared to offend the supervisor envoy residence. The supervisor envoy residence had always been peaceful.
He entered the hall.
Bai Li Shang saw Dongbo Xue Ying and Yu Jing Qiu seated on the main seats.
"Greetings to His Highness and Madam," Bai Li Shang said respectfully.
"Commander Bai Li, should I address you as World Deity Shang Yi?" Dongbo Xue Ying suddenly said.
Bai Li Shang was startled.
Shang Yi?
Was he discovered? Was he exposed? The relic was still with him. Would this Dongbo Xue Ying snatch it away?
As soon as his identity was exposed, his expression changed. He looked at Dongbo Xue Ying with a hint of panic in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure, "Dongbo Xue Ying's strength far surpasses mine, and this is the Supervisor Manor, his territory. The mansion was also reinforced by countless arrays. In front of him, I had no way of fighting back. Let him do whatever he wants. "
"My life and death are already in his hands. If that's the case, what's the point of being anxious? " Bai Li Shang understood that there was no point in struggling. Hence, he stopped struggling. Soon after, he understood. "No one knows that I have the relic. If he really knew that I have the relic, he would have attacked me long ago. They don't know how to talk nonsense. "
Shock, anger, panic, powerlessness, calmness, and rationality.
All of this happened extremely quickly.
"Does His Highness know about it?" Bai Li Shang raised his head and asked.
"Yeah." Dongbo Xue Ying nodded. "You should just tell me honestly."
Bai Li Shang was certain that Dongbo Xue Ying did not know. Furthermore, he would not reveal his most important secret until the very last moment. He immediately asked, "Your Highness, how did you know my identity? Did Monarch Cang Yong send someone over? "
Bai Li Shang was also very intelligent, so he immediately made a guess.
"What kind of enmity do you have with Monarch Cang Yong?" Xue Ying asked. Just now, Bai Li Shang's sudden panic had caused both him and Jing Qiu to feel a strand of suspicion.
"I'm just a weak World Deity. How could I have the qualifications to offend Monarch Cang Yong? Monarch Cang Yong is simply too vicious and merciless, "Bai Li Shang said helplessly. "He captured a group of World Deities like me and forced us to enter a relic to our deaths. After the relic collapsed, many of the World Deities fled in all directions. I also took the opportunity to escape, and only then did I regain my freedom. However, I never expected that Monarch Cang Yong would still chase after me! "
"Your Highness, Your Highness!" Bai Li Shang looked at Dongbo Xue Ying and pleaded, "Please protect my life, Your Highness. Without Your Highness's protection, I'm afraid that I will die without a doubt."
Dongbo Xue Ying and Jing Qiu exchanged glances.
Relic?
"The Deity World is vast, and there are many World Deities. If you all escaped, then so be it. Why would he go all out to use karma to track you all down?" Dongbo Xue Ying frowned. "What do you all have that he would go all out to chase after you?"
"Karma?" Only now did Bai Li Shang understand how Monarch Cang Yong was pursuing them.
Karma was a very mysterious thing.
Even powerful existences who had transcended the river of time and become truly eternal could still produce karma. For example, when Dongbo Xue Ying and the others called out the names of powerful existences, the powerful existences would be able to sense it through karma! It was also because of their realm that they could be so sensitive to karma. Ordinary stage four World Deities who had yet to transcend would not be able to sense karma to such a degree.
"Let me ask you something. What do you all have that he would chase after you all?" Dongbo Xue Ying asked.
Bai Li Shang's heart tightened.
"I'm not too sure about that," Bai Li Shang said helplessly. "My guess is that it's because we know his secret."
"Secret?" Dongbo Xue Ying asked.
"That relic!" Bai Li Shang waved his hand, causing a complicated diagram to appear in midair. "This is a star chart that records the location of the relic. Originally, we did not know where it was. It was only after the relic collapsed and we escaped that we found out its exact location! Although the relic has collapsed, it is still very large. My guess is that there are some things that cannot be revealed? "
Dongbo Xue Ying looked at Bai Li Shang. "Just because of the relic?"
"I can't think of any other reason," Bai Li Shang replied.
"Mn." Dongbo Xue Ying nodded his head lightly, then instructed, "Commander Bai Li, from today onwards, you will stay in the supervisor envoy's residence. Monarch Cang Yong's subordinates are keeping watch outside. If you go out, you might die at any moment."
Bai Li Shang was panicking.
"If you have a clone, it would be best for you to separate from your main body," Dongbo Xue Ying instructed.
What is this Dongbo Xue Ying trying to do? Does he know that my clone is here as well? Bai Li Shang thought to himself. His main body and clone were both in the supervisor envoy's residence because he only had one treasure that could distort space. With this treasure, he was confident that he could conceal himself. If his clone were to be captured by Monarch Cang Yong, Monarch Cang Yong had plenty of ways to make it impossible for him to even commit suicide! He even had the means to search through his memories!
"Thank you, Your Highness. I will be careful," Bai Li Shang replied.
"Go," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
Bai Li Shang respectfully retreated.
Only Dongbo Xue Ying and Yu Jing Qiu were left in the hall.
"The relic he mentioned shouldn't be false. It's unlikely that he would make up such a story. However, he said too little about it. Although he did provide a star map, he didn't go into detail, "Dongbo Xue Ying said with a frown.
Jing Qiu chuckled. "You're overthinking things. It's not like you asked him in detail."
"Perhaps." Dongbo Xue Ying nodded.
"However, Snow Eagle, you should have your personal guard increase their patrols. I don't think Monarch Cang Yong will give up so easily," Jing Qiu said.
...
In the Deity world, in the vast Cang Yong Empire.
This enormous empire had been single-handedly created by Monarch Cang Yong, so it was only natural that his authority would reach the heavens. His will was the will of this empire! This was also the reason why so many experts were unwilling to stay in the Bloodshed God Palace, the Temporal Island, or the Myriad God Palace. Depending on someone else meant that they would have to abide by the rules and restrictions.
Even killing a stage three World Deity would have to be restricted. How troublesome would that be?
"Monarch." The green-robed World Deity Mou Xiao respectfully bowed.
There was a tall figure sitting on the high and mighty white throne. There were huge bone spurs protruding from his back, and a row of bones formed a fan behind him. His head was completely bald, and there was not a single strand of hair on his face. His eyes were filled with indifference. From his appearance, it was easy to tell that he was not of human origin.
"Dong Bo Xue Ying is determined to protect his personal guard. He said that if he doesn't clarify the enmity between us and World Deity Shang Yi, or if he doesn't confirm the truth, he won't expel him," the green-robed man respectfully said.
"This Dongbo Xue Ying." Monarch Cang Yong's slender fingers lightly stroked the armrest of his throne. "He's currently in high spirits, so how could he not protect his personal guard? However, since I've already mentioned it in advance, I've already given him face. Since he refuses, he can't blame me. World Deity Shen Tu! "
Hua.
A figure walked out from the void to the side. He was wrapped in a black robe, and even his facial features were blurry.
"World Deity Shen Tu, Dongbo Xue Ying is extremely powerful. I'm afraid that sending other World Deities might not be enough, so I'll let you act," Monarch Cang Yong calmly said. "I have no intention of becoming enemies with Dongbo Xue Ying, so you can act in secret and kill Shang Yi."
"Yes," the black-robed man respectfully replied.
