"Why wasn't our universe devoured?" Yang Xuan asked the most crucial question.
Number Six's voice seemed to come from the end of the River of Time: "Because the Lord met an existence as great as himself"
Yang Xuan was stunned, not understanding what Number Six meant.
Number Six seemed to be reminiscing. After a long time, he slowly said, "After entering your universe, the Lord originally planned to continue devouring according to the rules. However, no one would have thought that in this universe, there would actually be an existence as great as the Lord."
After a pause, he continued: "And so, the battle broke out"
"I can't describe the scene of that battle to you, because it has completely surpassed my knowledge and imagination. I only know that after that battle, the Lord and that great existence both disappeared"
"They're both dead?" Yang Xuan asked blankly.
"No, they're not" Number Six shook his head. "I can feel the Lord's presence, it's very weak, but it definitely exists, as if he's trapped somewhere and can't come out"
He continued: "After that battle, the Lord disappeared, and the shackles that controlled our race also gradually lost their power, which is why you can see the current me"
Yang Xuan asked again: "What about that great existence?"
Number Six replied: "I don't know, maybe he's dead, maybe he still exists, I really don't know."
The two of them fell silent. After a while, Yang Xuan took a deep breath, trying to digest this extremely shocking news, and asked: "Then where did that army of demons come from?"
He had always been suspicious about this.
At first, he suspected that these demons came from another universe, but now that he heard Number Six say this, he felt that it wasn't right.
Wherever the Lord went, all life and stars would be devoured and destroyed, so how could there be any life left?
"Those are the memory imprints of the life forms that the Lord devoured in other universes, through some of our race's clansmen who have the ability to reforge flesh, he gave them new life and used them to fight against you" Number Six explained.
So that's how it is.
Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes. After digesting this information, he asked, "Since your Lord has disappeared, why are you still attacking our universe?"
Number Six seemed to be smiling bitterly. "Before the news of the Lord's death is confirmed, no one dares to rebel against him or ignore his orders. He's too scary, so scary that just thinking about it makes me tremble. Even though the Lord had disappeared, the controlling presence left in our bodies was so weak and fragile that none of us dared to sever it. Therefore, we still carried out the Lord's orders loyally, attempting to invade your universe and devour all things. "
At this point, Number Six fell silent. After a long time, he slowly said, "And I am the first person in my race to sever that connection, and possibly the only one."
Yang Xuan took in a deep breath. Only now did he finally understand what had happened.
Truth be told, the current him was incomparably shocked.
"Why are you telling me all this?" He asked the most important question, one word at a time.
Number Six's hidden gaze became extremely strange. It was as if he was carefully sizing him up and probing him.
After an unknown amount of time, he said, "Do you really want to know?"
Yang Xuan nodded.
Number Six was silent for a moment before he said word by word, "Your body contains the presence of that great being."
When the words entered his ears, Yang Xuan was stunned.
Number Six said, "When I fought with you last time, I felt this, but I wasn't sure. When you fought with the original Number Seven, I carefully sensed your power and finally confirmed that your body contains the presence of that great being …"
Yang Xuan found it difficult to digest this information. He asked in surprise, "Are you sure?"
Number Six said, "I'm sure. That's why I'm standing here and telling you these things. Please help me return to my home."
Yang Xuan took in a deep breath, calming the surging emotions in his heart as he slowly said, "I believe that you've guessed wrongly. My power is only on par with yours, so how can I have the aura of that almighty existence? Besides, since your universe has already been destroyed, how can you return? "
Number Six said slowly, "If that great being really still exists, he has the power to rebuild our universe. When that time comes, I can return home."
Seeing that Yang Xuan still wanted to say something, Number Six interrupted him and said, "I'm not asking you to do it right now. I just want to ask you, if you have the chance to meet that great being, please pass on my request."
Yang Xuan suddenly realized that Number Six had this idea from the beginning. No wonder he still chose to hide it after discovering Yang Xuan's true identity.
Yang Xuan thought for a long time before asking an important question, "What kind of being is the Lord?"
Number Six was silent. After a while, he said slowly with a strange voice, "I don't know what kind of being the Lord is. I only know that when he descends, you will definitely not be able to resist."
This was equivalent to not saying anything, but Yang Xuan understood what Number Six meant.
It was likely that the entire Nash Tribe had never seen the being that they called the Lord.
Which religion had actually seen the god that they worshipped?
The conversation was basically coming to an end. Yang Xuan asked, "What's your plan after this?"
Number Six thought for a while and said, "Number Seven's identity is just a cover for you. I can't guarantee how many of the remaining Nash Tribe members are like me and cut off their connection with the Lord. Maybe it's just me, or maybe there are many. This is a gamble. Before this, I need allies."
Yang Xuan said, "You want me to hide among the Nash Tribe and be your ally?"
Number Six smiled. "Not only you, but also your friend. He took control of Number Five's body and can hide among the Nash Tribe."
"What's the purpose of doing this?" Yang Xuan asked.
Number Six's tone became serious. He said slowly, "I suspect that Number One knows something. He's trying to save the Lord."
He looked at Yang Xuan and said slowly, "I don't want that to happen. If necessary, I need your help …"
Yang Xuan was shocked. He said, "You mean, if necessary, we need to …"
"No matter who it is, they can't stop me from going home." Number Six's tone was calm but the determination in his words was like a towering mountain that pierced through the clouds.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xuan thought of a problem.
Previously, Zi Yun said that only Number Six had the ability to break through space. But now that they had this strange relationship, could he really do it again?
After thinking for a while, he decided to just say it.
"Actually, we came here to take your ability to break through space," Yang Xuan said.
He didn't say much. He believed that Number Six already understood.
"I know what you want to do. I can help you," Number Six said.
Then there's no problem. Yang Xuan nodded.
Number Six was willing to help. He didn't really need to take his ability.
It would be a pity to lose such a spy.
While he was thinking, a long tentacle broke through the space in front of him and reached towards Yang Xuan.
It was Number Five.
