Chapter 233

Blue-dyed Sōsuke: "Ah... then I'll hop on this bandwagon too! Shinigami? How could they possibly be infected by a virus?"

Accelerator: "If it were something else—like magic or other inexplicable phenomena—I might not be able to reflect it."

But if it's merely a mere biochemical virus, let it come and try."

"Vector manipulation is absolutely invincible!"

I am the Hou Jue: "This battle—I have joined it."

"Godslayers never fear viral infection."

Or rather, no Godslayer has ever fallen to disease!"

Luo Hao, the Sect Leader: "What a coincidence! I thought the same."

"Then, old Hou Jue, could you entrust this mission to me?"

In the blink of an eye, the number of registered participants had already reached six."

In other words, one must be eliminated... but Luo Hao, instead of looking at the others, fixed her gaze directly on Marquis Wo Ban, her intent unmistakable."

The meaning was crystal clear."

Either you join this mission, or I join it."

I am the Hou Jue: "... Ah... though I'm annoyed and unwilling, since even Luo Hao has said this, if I refuse your challenge, won't you look down on me?"

I am the Hou Jue: "Fine! This time, either you go, or I go."

I am the Hou Jue: "Su Xiao Xiao."

"Chief, is there any way to decide which one of us will participate?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "... Need I say it? The Great Luo Pan."

Su Han offered the solution without the slightest hesitation."

Yet as Marquis Wo Ban, with fierce determination, and Luo Hao, the Sect Leader, chose the Luo Pan to decide who would join the mission, Marquis Wo Ban suddenly realized a critical issue."

"

That fellow Luo Hao seems to have a close relationship with the Chief... Chief... wouldn't she pull strings this time?"

Thinking of this, Marquis Wo Ban grew deeply anxious."

But after reconsidering, the Luo Pan was part of the system's function—Su Han couldn't possibly tamper with it—so Marquis Wo Ban calmed down."

Then, at the moment the Great Wheel stopped spinning."

Marquis Wo Ban stared hard—and his smile slowly vanished."

I am the Hou Jue: "Xie Te... it really is Luo Hao, the Sect Leader! How could it possibly be Luo Hao? I don't believe it."

5.

Luo Hao, the Sect Leader: "Admit it, old Hou Jue! In terms of luck, you are utterly no match for me."

I am the mighty, beautiful, peerless Luo Hao! Unrivaled by any."

I am the Hou Jue: "Impossible—this must be the Chief..."

Su Xiao Xiao: "Mm."

I am the Hou Jue: "Nothing... I merely meant that under the Chief's wise leadership, this final outcome is unquestionably flawless."

Marquis Wo Ban's heart bled."

No matter how much resentment he felt, Marquis Wo Ban could only grit his teeth and swallow it."

To openly question Su Han—if Su Han truly had no authority to alter the result, a misunderstanding would be fine."

But if Su Han truly had such power, future mission wheels would never land on him again."

Realizing this, Marquis Wo Ban chose to be a man who knows when to yield."

He who can bend and stretch is truly a great man."
