Chapter 675: Yin Qingcheng’s Confusion

The fake eye opened and closed once again.

The already prepared Forbidden Land began to be deployed once more.

Lu Ye felt a surge of relief in his heart.

What does this mean?

It means that as long as there’s bait, even a fish recently hooked and wounded is willing to bite again.

But it was time to test his acting skills again; behind that fake eye, there must be a Saint watching closely. If he wanted to catch more fish, he had to perform well.

Lu Ye gazed at the Celestial Lord charging at him again.

His eyes filled with disdain.

“Die!”

He struck with extreme ruthlessness, each attack aiming for a fatal blow.

Back when he was in the Emperor Realm, the Celestial Lords couldn’t even get past three moves in his hands; now, instant kills were totally normal.

Four more Celestial Lords fell.

Three thousand Derived Worlds!

Even if only one Celestial Lord existed for every ten Derived Worlds, that’s still several hundred Celestial Lords.

After slaying the Celestial Lords, Lu Ye’s expression remained indifferent, as if he had just killed a chicken with effortless ease.

The Dark Abyss God watched the scene unfold with a cold gaze.

Actually, those at the Saint level in the Derived Worlds preferred to call themselves gods, like the Dark Origin God.

They had plundered the world’s essence, seeing themselves as creators, and wanted to be called Saints, but that had never worked before.

When the Forbidden Land descended in the Primordial World, some proclaimed them as Saints, but even the most ordinary people denied that title because each Saint emerged step by step amidst everyone’s attention.

No matter how common these so-called Saints appeared, even the dimmest individuals wouldn’t believe it.

Even if these gods tried to explain how vast the outside world was, claiming it to be three thousand times greater.

They boasted about their strength and accomplishments.

But the inhabitants of this realm stubbornly refused to accept such titles.

This infuriated these beings to no end.

Ultimately, they changed their titles to gods, and that sparked a wave of devotion throughout the realm.

The Dark Abyss God scrutinized Lu Ye carefully, missing no detail, but found nothing.

Right now, Lu Ye seemed to be at his peak.

Killing Celestial Lords was a piece of cake.

But the more flawless he appeared, the more suspicious it became.

That earlier spurt of blood must have been from enduring a Saint’s attack.

It couldn’t be that simple; he was merely hiding his injuries to prevent others from sensing his weakness.

“I’m curious to see how long you can keep this up!”

The Dark Abyss God was running out of options; if he couldn’t eliminate Lu Ye, the plan to deploy the Forbidden Land would fail.

If the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens and the Invincible Sword Saint got involved, they’d be the ones to fall.

So far, they had lost four gods since they started attacking with them.

Quite frightening.

Lu Ye must be eliminated!

“Continue!”

“Send those two Self-Detonation Celestial Lords over!”

The Dark Abyss God commanded.

“Yes!”

Another wave of transfers came.

Instantly, Lu Ye noticed the two Self-Detonation Celestial Lords arriving from a great distance, and in a split second, he slashed with his sword.

No matter how they resisted, his sword completely cleaved them in half.

However, the Saint’s attack homed in on Lu Ye.

Lu Ye vanished from sight; this time, he didn’t tank the Saint’s attack but couldn’t dodge; there was no escaping.

All Lu Ye could do was unleash the Celestial Lord Fist again.

As the blows collided, his body seemed to dissolve into particles, but after scattering, it reassembled instantly.

Got the hook!

Lu Ye was ecstatic.

He decided to take down some Celestial Lords. Knowing these Celestial Lords were excellent nutrients for nourishing this realm.

Lu Ye began to shift his image, targeting the Celestial Lords from a distance.

He tried to avoid the Self-Detonation Celestial Lords, even seeking ways to seal them.

This scene excited the Dark Abyss God.

Things hadn’t gone beyond the point of no return.

This Lu Ye wasn’t as strong as he had imagined.

Since that’s the case, he could afford to exert more effort.

The Primordial Dao Lord tried hard to maintain a worried expression, but honestly, his acting skills didn’t match Lu Ye’s.

Just a closer look at his face revealed an unmistakable hint of hidden glee.

Anyone who knew Lu Ye realized he was an expert at fishing and didn’t hold back on bait.

He once even baited his ex-wife as a ploy to fish for resources; when she tried to cheat on Lu Ye, he didn’t even stop her.

This guy was ruthless.

Truly ruthless.

And now, he was once again successfully baiting.

Come on, no matter how many Celestial Lords show up, Lu Ye could tear them apart.

The Primordial Dao Lord couldn’t help glancing at the other Celestial Lords, noticing their worried expressions were far more genuine than his own, suggesting he still needed to improve his acting skills.

The sea of knowledge has no bounds!

The achievers lead the way!

Little did the Primordial Dao Lord know that the other Celestial Lords were genuinely feeling a chill down their spines.

Goodness gracious!

Could it be that Lu Ye might not hold out any longer?

They had been in the outer domain, and didn’t know much about Lu Ye’s experiences.

But witnessing Lu Ye’s current performance, it honestly seemed like he was struggling.

In the distance.

In a far-off place.

Yin Qingcheng looked adoringly at Lu Ye’s figure.

He had become a Celestial Lord once again, stronger than he had ever been!

Watching Lu Ye now made Yin Qingcheng feel as if she were still living in her past life, where she hadn’t betrayed Lu Ye.

A wave of sadness flooded Yin Qingcheng’s heart.

Initially, she believed that by tirelessly sending the treasures of the Four Spirits to Lu Ye, he would eventually be moved.

She could send them for a thousand years, ten thousand years, or even a hundred thousand years…

Sooner or later, Lu Ye would come to her one day, sigh softly, and extend his hand towards her.

Forgive her!

But now it seemed that she hadn’t sent many treasures before he had already become a Celestial Lord.

Everything happened so quickly.

Without her and the other seven burdens, Lu Ye’s path forward reached a level even Yin Qingcheng couldn’t comprehend.

She felt utterly exhausted.

Heartbroken!

In this moment, she felt completely lost, unsure of what to do next.

Then, Yin Qingcheng remembered.

The Most Emotionless Great Emperor.

Yes, the Most Emotionless Great Emperor.

The Forgetful Emotion Celestial Lord had become the Most Emotionless Great Emperor, and she needed to ask him how to make Lu Ye believe she had truly changed her heart.

ps: I need to finalize the outline, prepare for the new book outline; I… can only do two updates now… Can’t skip a single day for the year-end rewards! Once the old book is completed, the new one will start updating. I still haven’t figured out what to write for the next book, but maybe it’ll feature the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens? No guarantees I’ll capture the greatness of the Sage; I’ll just draft an outline to test the waters.
