Chapter 2022: You Are Very Hypocritical

"Heh..." Xueli laughed: "But when you encounter a situation, your first reaction is still to bring up your status as Pope, isn't it?"

"You know, Degula, your actions really make people feel disgusted." Xueli tilted her head and stared at him: "Don't you think your conduct is hypocritical?"

"I'm hypocritical?" Degula grinned and said: "The only thing I regret is that I cannot erase the fact that I was once the Pope."

"So what exactly do you want to do?" Chen Yu said: "Can you get to the point?"

"The item you two won at auction today is called the Crystal Skull; it is a Sacred Object, a token of a very powerful and formidable race." Degula said: "Originally, if there were no accidents, this thing would have returned to their race."

"But because you two snatched it away, this item was won by you. Now, shouldn't you show some gesture?"

"Show what? Offer it up with both hands, free of charge, and deliver it right before your eyes?" Chen Yu asked.

"Otherwise? You still have a chance to return the item now, and this is your only chance. I warn you, don't you dare complicate things."

"I, for one, happen to like complicated things." Chen Yu grinned and said: "If we don't hand over what we have in our hands today, are you not going to let us leave?"

"Not only will I not let you leave, we will most likely invite you to see your deceased relatives and let you be reunited in Hell." Degula smiled slightly.

He grabbed with his right hand, and a Holy Artifact appeared in his hand, while the two Werewolf Clan leaders who had surrounded Chen Yu and Xueli also let out a series of howls.

They transformed almost in unison, and the immense oppressive force immediately made Chen Yu and Xueli feel the pressure.

"You two, you shouldn't have argued with us, you really shouldn't have." Degula muttered: "Because of your argument with us, it forces us to have to send you on your way. Regarding this, you have nothing to say, right?"

"If you can't win it at auction, you snatch it. You are truly despicable." Xueli stared at Degula.

"Haha, I have already politely explained the pros and cons to you, but you wouldn't listen, so I have no choice. Today's events really cannot be blamed on us." Degula leaned close to the two and said viciously: "But please rest assured, I guarantee that I will definitely choose a suitable place to bury you."

"Degula, are you serious?" Xueli's voice changed. Although she had not yet removed her disguise, her tone was already filled with murderous intent that could not be underestimated: "Are you really going to go down this dark path to the end?"

"You... who are you?" Degula was startled. He looked at Xueli with both shock and anger. Although he had not yet recognized who Xueli was, he had clearly seen the change in Xueli just now.

"I only disguised myself slightly, and you already can't recognize me?" Xueli smiled slightly. She lifted the veil on her face, revealing her original appearance.

"It's you?" Degula was startled. He quickly retreated a few steps, putting distance between himself and Xueli. He raged: "How did you get here? You disguised yourself so well; I almost didn't recognize you."

"Degula, you have completely betrayed your faith. Now you are actually mixing with these Werewolf Clan members; you have disappointed me too much." Xueli looked furious: "Do you know what you are doing right now?"

"Heh, what I do has nothing to do with you." Degula, having regained his composure, sneered and said: "In any case, I have completely drawn a line with you and the Pope. Now I want to cooperate with the Werewolf Clan to accomplish a grand career."

"Betraying the True Lord is one thing, but now... you are even going to betray your own race?" Xueli said coldly: "The Pope must have been blind back then to have cultivated a bastard like you."

"Haha, curse away, curse as much as you like. The more you curse, the happier I am." Degula laughed loudly: "After so many years, I have finally done something that makes your Pope feel ashamed."

"Madman, do you really not know what doing this means?" Xueli looked at Degula angrily.

"It means that from today on, I have completely drawn a line with your human world." Degula said with a smile: "You treat me as a traitor, and in your eyes, a traitor is not considered a human at all. So, the reason I have reached this point today is entirely because I was forced by you, understand?"

"No one forced you, Degula." Xueli slowly shook her head and said: "We just wanted you to pick up your faith again, but... you can no longer turn back now."

"If I can't turn back, then so be it. Anyway, I never thought about turning back now." Degula slowly shook his head and said: "Xueli, if you don't hand over the Crystal Skull today, I guarantee you will not even have a corpse left."

"Do you have some misunderstanding about your own strength?" Chen Yu, who was to the side, finally spoke up with some helplessness.

He slowly unwrapped the white cloth wrapped around his body and then discarded it to the side with disdain: "I don't understand why people over there like to wrap themselves up like a rice dumpling. In our Huaxia tradition, such attire is probably only worn when mourning the dead."

"It's you, you are here too?" The moment Degula saw Chen Yu, his expression became extremely colorful.

It was impossible for him to forget Chen Yu. If it weren't for Chen Yu, Xueli would never have been able to escape from his hands unscathed last time.

And now, Chen Yu was standing right before his eyes, which made him both shocked and angry. His pride and joy, the Eternal Fallen Hell, was completely ineffective before Chen Yu.

"I see your complexion doesn't look very good." Chen Yu looked at Degula's face, which looked as if his father had just died, and smiled slightly: "Degula, if you give up now, there is still a chance."

"Give up? I have been chased by your Pope's people for decades, hiding here and there like a rat. It was not easy for Old Ivan to die and for the Pope to fall into turmoil; this is an excellent opportunity for me. Now you want me to give up? Do you think that's possible?"

"Old Ivan is dead, but Dewen has basically controlled the situation now." Chen Yu said: "You can play however you want in the human world, but you cannot stop being a human."

"When have I stopped being a human?" Degula was practically enraged.

"Right now, are you acting like a human?" Chen Yu said with a smile: "You have fallen to the point of going to the Werewolf Clan to offer advice; can you still be considered a human now?"
