Chapter 2477

~7 min read 1,324 words

The surroundings of Panlong Ancient City were actually very crowded, almost filled by the Secret Realm, but this newly arrived Secret Realm rudely seized the position of the Yin Ya Ancient Ruins, and everyone could see the buildings and jungle of the Yin Ya Ancient Ruins being overwritten by the new ruins, bricks and stones scattered, trees crushed.

Such an overbearing ruin, especially its shape which looked somewhat familiar. Zhu Xiuer only glanced twice before becoming unsettled:

"Du Zhi Mountain Secret Realm!"

Ming Ke Xianren was moved: "Shangguan Biao finally brought the Du Zhi Mountain Secret Realm to confront Panlong Ancient City!"

"He originally wanted to use other Secret Realms to first exhaust Panlong Secret Realm's strength, then go up himself to pick the ready-made gains." Outnumbering the few, standard tactics, "Seeing this move wouldn't work, he also had to go up himself."

Ming Yao Zunzun said urgently: "It seems Shangguan Biao's battle in the Void Realm didn't gain an advantage, so he has to resort to two-pronged tactics."

¥¥¥¥¥

Feng Chao Ku Secret Realm.

Xi Yu Liang Tian Shen, upon entering this Secret Realm, was met with the damp vapor of the soil rushing toward him.

This was originally a deep pit underground, eroded by flowing water into countless large and small caves, some of which were interconnected, forming a very three-dimensional labyrinth. Ordinary people, even if they entered eight or ten times, would still get lost.

Xi Yu used mind-voice to ask his elder brother: "What did the Holy Venerable say?"

"Stay calm and don't act rashly." Wu Yao looked left and right, "Jiuyou has always been skilled at scheming in the dark, profiting behind the scenes. This time, many forces are involved, he probably still wants to repeat old tricks. The Holy Venerable's order is, we should not rush to show ourselves first, let Dimu and Jiuyou clash a few times to see. Since their Secret Realms must devour each other, they will inevitably clash head-on. Both sides are formidable; in the end, no matter who wins, their strength will be greatly diminished."

"How will we take over their Secret Realm then?" Xi Yu cared most about this, "The Great Great Great Fanghu is connected to the Secret Realm; only by controlling the Secret Realm can we take it into our hands."

"The method is very simple: kill the owner of the Secret Realm, and we can take the Secret Realm!"

Xi Yu suddenly understood: "In other words, Dimu and Jiuyou both must die!"

Don't be fooled by the chaotic appearance of Yujing City now; in fact, the solution to the problem is just this simple and brutal—wait for the two sides to decide victory, then the Heavenly Demon intervenes and snatches the final fruit of victory.

"But grasping this timing requires great care." Wu Yao said, "There are reports from bird demons: they discovered from above that the ruins in Yujing City are being moved to the edge of Panlong Ruins, several have vanished. The remaining ones will likely be moved soon, probably Dimu's doing."

"The Holy Venerable judges this is Panlong Secret Realm devouring its kind. Soon, it and the hidden Du Zhi Mountain Secret Realm will inevitably clash!"

Xi Yu froze: "Du Zhi Mountain's... hidden Secret Realm?"

"Have you forgotten? Dimu planted the Wind Dew Golden Lotus there and forbade other demons from approaching. Moreover, just now Lingshan invaded Yujing City and first headed straight for Du Zhi Mountain. Think about their purpose in attacking Yujing City, and you'll know that place is not simple."

Wu Yao paused: "Also, our informants say those from Lingshan had already entered Du Zhi Mountain earlier, and just now came out again in a group."

"Was the Secret Realm broken by them, or were they kicked out by the Secret Realm?"

"Not clear yet, but it seems Jiuyou's figure hasn't been seen again."

Xi Yu's eyes flashed: "Is Jiuyou still inside the Secret Realm?"

"Most likely." Wu Yao judged, "This is also a good opportunity: the people of Lingshan have all come out, and the Earth Cave Spider Queen is not by his side. He is isolated! The higher-ups judge this is very likely why Dimu came to find us!"

Xi Yu understood: "He can't handle Jiuyou himself, so he wants us to act?"

At this moment, a black shadow emerged from the cave ahead, and the Heavenly Demon immediately stopped in his tracks.

Familiar stone giant, Dimu.

Xi Yu spoke first: "You came to find us—what is the purpose?"

Dimu, or rather Shangguan Biao, got straight to the point: "I used a scheme to trap Jiuyou; you help me kill him!"

The two Heavenly Demons exchanged a glance—indeed!

"What great news." Wu Yao probed, "Why not say it outside?"

Dimu suddenly asked them to enter the Secret Realm, saying there were important matters to discuss. The two Heavenly Demons also felt uneasy in their hearts, after all, the situation in Yujing City is currently unclear, and this fellow is notorious for denying acquaintances after turning hostile. Fearful that he might reach some agreement with Cang Yan and then betray the gods.

Such a thing happening to Dimu seems hardly surprising at all.

But the two demons reported upward, and the upper command instructed them to follow up, so they had no choice but to come.

The consequences of not coming, they cannot bear.

Shangguan Biao said: "Many mouths, walls have ears—how could it be safer and more at ease than here?"

He spoke lightly, but Wu Yao detected the abnormality. Yujing City was originally his territory, he handled everything with a firm grip, so what did he fear from many tongues?

Now Shangguan Biao actually worries about secrets leaking, insisting on meeting in the Secret Realm—hmph!

This shows his control over Yujing City has weakened.

The two Heavenly Demons exchanged whispers while asking him: "Where did you trap him?"

"Another Secret Realm." Shangguan Biao pointed to the large cave behind him, "One can enter from here. But you two are no match for him. Hah, so far, I haven't seen you two amount to much use."

After the barrier of Yujing City shattered, these two Heavenly Demons obviously began to slack off.

What scheme are they hatching? Shangguan Biao couldn't possibly be unaware?

The wind has shifted, and the Heavenly Demons have begun conserving strength, preparing to act as the fisherman?

Gains don't come that easily, still that old saying: Yujing City doesn't keep idlers! "You still have a backup plan, don't you? Now it's time to reveal it."

"Can do." Wu Yao also spoke bluntly, "But if you want our help, shouldn't there be some gesture?"

"Killing the Jiuyou Great Emperor—isn't that the Heavenly Demons' primary duty? So who is helping whom? Shangguan Biao cursed inwardly, raised his head: 'After killing Jiuyou, I will immediately give you the 'Yang Guan Dao'.'"

Xi Yu blurted: "Give it now, to show sincerity!"

He spoke without thinking, and Wu Yao didn't stop him.

"According to our prior agreement, you must block Lingshan's attack for me before you can obtain the 'Yang Guan Dao'. Now?" Shangguan Biao sneered, "Lingshan is already rampaging everywhere in Yujing City, while you two are like rats crossing the street, hiding where no daylight reaches! Hah, still want to take the 'Yang Guan Dao' first? Show some real ability first!"

Even if the other side demands it loudly, it's useless—Sangguan Biao will never give, because this chip is the most concrete.

Wu Yao said: "Also, we want to take away the Great Great Great Fanghu."

Shangguan Biao immediately nodded: "Can do."

If you have the ability, go take it yourself.

Wu Yao knew what he was scheming, and added: "If the Panlong Secret Realm is connected to the Great Great Great Fanghu, then the Panlong Secret Realm also belongs to us. Everything related to the Great Great Great Fanghu in the surrounding areas, we will take all of it!"
