Chapter 2201: Intent Preys on Carelessness!

Since arriving at the Fire Cloud Cave, Kunpeng had been collecting the lingering traces of Hongmeng Purple Qi, but now these traces were growing ever fainter.

To obtain the lingering traces, he must find more places where Hongmeng Purple Qi existed.

But Kunpeng knew Hongyun would never tell him!

At this moment, Yunzhongzi happened upon Kunpeng—he hoped Kunpeng would cooperate with him, which was why he had laid the words before Kunpeng to ponder.

"Cooperate?"

Kunpeng sized up Yunzhongzi. "What qualifications do you have to cooperate with me?"

"Kunpeng, do you still think you're the revered Kunpeng of the Yao Clan? You can never be the Yao Master Kunpeng again!"

Yunzhongzi sneered. "I'm willing to cooperate with you precisely because you still have that unyielding spirit—if you lacked it, I, Yunzhongzi, would never cooperate!"

Kunpeng's expression changed.

If it were about the Yao Clan, he wouldn't believe it—but Yunzhongzi's expression made him think the man intended to stir up chaos.

Yet if Yunzhongzi did this, why should Kunpeng agree to him?

"Heh."

"Do you really think you can pull it off?"

Kunpeng smiled. "Yunzhongzi, do you know who truly rules the Honghuang now? It's no longer Heaven's Dao, nor Ancestor Hongjun—it's Luo Fu!"

"Luo Fu can peer into all things!"

"Now Luo Fu is Heaven's Dao. Now Luo Fu is Fate's Dao!"

Kunpeng couldn't help but smile bitterly, for the affair between him and Hongyun had been exposed by Luo Fu at once—if not for that, he would have pledged himself to Luo Fu.

If he pledged to Luo Fu, with Luo Fu's power, serving as one of his top generals would be more than enough—he'd never be looked down upon.

Now both Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun saw him as a scourge, so he must leave.

Moreover, Donghuang Taiyi might very well push him out as a scapegoat.

With these facts known, if Donghuang Taiyi dares to act, then he dares to speak now.

Before leaving, Zhao Gongming had warned Yunzhongzi to watch his words—but Yunzhongzi had no such intention, nor did he feel he needed to live cautiously.

"If we two cooperate, we can plunge the Honghuang into chaos. Think about it—when the Wu Clan and Yao Clan are in turmoil, that's when we rise!"

"Yunzhongzi, you're thinking too simply."

It wasn't just Kunpeng saying this—it was that Yunzhongzi truly thought too simply. If Yunzhongzi truly wished to carve out his own path, he shouldn't have come to him.

"Coward."

Yunzhongzi spoke and walked away immediately, leaving Kunpeng alone in the Fire Cloud Cave, seething.

In truth, Yunzhongzi wasn't without sense—he knew full well that if he carried this out, some things could be managed, some could succeed.

Kunpeng would surely be furious!

But then, Kunpeng would eventually understand why they were doing this.

Next, Kunpeng would seek out Yunzhongzi—even if they didn't cooperate, some things could still succeed.

Yunzhongzi had calculated it all—but in all his calculations, he had overlooked Zhao Gongming.

Zhao Gongming had gone to report him!

And in the Honghuang, so many eyes watched Yunzhongzi's actions—everyone saw, it was merely intent preying on carelessness; Yunzhongzi's behavior had long been seen through.
