Chapter 1411: Chapter 1411: The Current State of the Fourth Game
"What did you say!"
The Dragon Slayer Sword hovered behind him, and Su Chengyu, who cared deeply about that sentence, was already planning to step forward and thoroughly interrogate.
However, seeing such an expression on Su Chengyu, Cui Manlou gave a crooked smile, and his figure shimmered, followed by rising black smoke, with only half of his body completely disappearing from the spot.
Su Chengyu keenly grasped that trace of Demonic Qi between heaven and earth, ready to give chase immediately.
"Su Chengyu!"
The call from Mo Ningchen behind him made Su Chengyu halt in his steps.
"Don’t forget what you are now, the title of ’Demon Slayer Saint’ is not just for show."
Words without any courtesy completely blocked Su Chengyu’s intention to pursue.
With his back towards Mo Ningchen and without any more fondness for the once Mo Da, Su Chengyu coldly said, "You don’t need to tell me that."
His figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, and ultimately Su Chengyu, not following through with his impulsive temperament, raced back toward the direction of Queen Irina.
You Ming, who was observing the scene, slightly furrowed his eyebrows and landed next to Mo Ningchen, asking somewhat curiously, "What has happened between you two these past few days?"
Mo Ningchen shook his head: "It’s nothing serious, just a conflict of pride."
"Oh?"
You Ming was somewhat surprised.
Among the many Saint Envoys in the Demon Slayer Department, there were many with different temperaments and conflicts of pride, but very few could have such a rigid falling-out with Mo Ningchen.
Even Ye Qingci, who was exceptionally cold to everyone, was merely detached when it came to Mo Ningchen.
Mo Ningchen smiled and quietly said to her, "This guy’s character is much tougher than what you see."
His words were true, but Mo Ningchen knew in his heart that this was far from the root cause for the current state of their relationship.
He was someone who almost had no bottom line, slippery and compromising, and even if there were many things he wouldn’t touch, it was merely because Mo Ningchen knew well that with his status, he had no right to touch them, such as betraying the Demon Slayer Department.
Su Chengyu was different; under the premise of both being intelligent, Su Chengyu also steadfastly held onto his bottom line, which was much tougher than his outward appearance.
Both were very clear about this, so as they came to understand each other more and more through continuous interaction, they gradually drifted apart.
This was destined that no matter how the two knew each other or worked together, they could never become friends.
"What’s the situation inside the Thousand Tents Palace?"
Mo Ningchen changed the topic before You Ming had a chance to ask further questions.
You Ming, who had been secretly lurking near the Thousand Tents Palace, indeed knew the inside situation better than the two of them, and said softly,
"Someone inside opened a passage, and the Nether Clan and Demonic Path lurking outside the City of Thousand Tents continue to pour into the interior through that passage, the situation is gradually getting out of control."
"What about the Land Immortals of the Bei Luo?"
"They’re held up, two of the Red Robed High Priests made their moves almost simultaneously, and the two Land Immortals in the palace, to avoid harming the fish pond, confront them in a sealed-off small world."
You Ming’s report immediately made Mo Ningchen understand why the Thousand Tents Palace had fallen into such chaos.
After a brief contemplation, Mo Ningchen once again looked at You Ming and asked, "Is the Holy Envoy of Shocking Dragon really not in the City of Thousand Tents?"
You Ming shook his head: "There were some deployments left by Jinglong that made my actions much more convenient, but he should indeed not be in the City of Thousand Tents."
Mo Ningchen was momentarily stunned by these words, then realized something and chuckled: "Is that what you mean? The Department really holds the three of us... no, should say Su Chengyu in high regard this time."
You Ming, not understanding the meaning, frowned and said: "What exactly are you talking about, Mo Ningchen? What arrangements from within the Department? I have no clue about any of this."
Mo Ningchen glanced at the seemingly unapproachable yet inwardly naive You Ming and said softly: "It’s nothing, it’s unlikely we two can change much of the situation amidst the chaos in the Thousand Tents Palace. Just do our best to deal with the people from the Bam Alliance. Right, pass this message to Su Chengyu using the Department’s secret technique."
You Ming felt puzzled, but since Mo Ningchen had spoken up, You Ming didn’t feel right to ask further.
"Got it."
On the other hand, Su Chengyu, who was swiftly making his way toward Queen Irina, also received the message from You Ming and immediately grasped its significance after a little thought.
Xu Zijing was not in the City of Thousand Tents, but he had made arrangements beforehand and even left words to assure Queen Irina that he could be trusted, indicating that they had anticipated everything that would happen at the Thousand Tents Palace.
And knowing but not being present here, evidently, he was tasked with something even more important.
The likely target of the mission was probably the stronghold of the Bam Alliance.
Without a doubt, only by crushing that place and severely weakening the vitality of the Bam Alliance could the situation of the Bei Luo Empire be truly changed.
Otherwise, trying to remove the Bam Alliance’s schemes and agents planted over more than a decade in Bei Luo’s political situation, one by one, would take an unknown amount of effort.
The Bei Luo Empire couldn’t afford this, and Xia Country couldn’t possibly keep an eye on this situation forever.
This decision undoubtedly placed the City of Thousand Tents on the fire, and Xu Zijing, who had directed the three to visit the City of Thousand Tents beforehand, intended for the trio to find a slim chance of survival amidst this chaos.
But... where was this chance for survival?
Su Chengyu’s mind raced, but he couldn’t find a direction for the time being.
The Bam Alliance’s assault on the Thousand Tents Palace had escalated to a clash at the level of Land Immortals.
All the resident Land Immortals of the Bei Luo Empire were tied down by the Bam Alliance, and it was hard for Su Chengyu to see how a group of them, who had nearly exhausted all their strength just against Cui Manlou, could possibly break through the situation.
He naturally believed that Xu Zijing wasn’t someone who would just dump a mess onto others, but Su Chengyu couldn’t help but suspect that this decision was made by the Demon Slayer Department.
If that was really the case... a deadlock might indeed be a true deadlock.
Feeling increasingly uneasy, Su Chengyu’s eyebrows knitted tighter, and it became clearer why Cui Manlou dared to appear so brazenly in front of them.
This guy was not merely confident in his own strength; he was also well aware of the current chaos at the Thousand Tents Palace, and knew that, even if the trio had the will to kill him, they would not dare to easily leave Bei Luo.
Although Bei Luo and Xia Country could not be considered as intimately connected as lips and teeth, Xia Country was separated from the Dark Sea by Bei Luo. Once the Bei Luo Empire completely fell, Xia Country would inevitably be the next target of the Nether Clan, not to mention the interference of the Demonic Path in between.
"What are you thinking about! If you are here, then hurry up and help! My vital force doesn’t just spring out of nowhere, alright!"
The voice of Heaven-Mending Stone within Su Chengyu’s Sea of Consciousness snapped the contemplating Su Chengyu back to reality.
Looking up, what Su Chengyu saw was a somewhat familiar figure, yet one he couldn’t seem to recall.
The figure wasn’t particularly tall, yet incredibly upright, and the dark gray skin revealed the identity of the Nether Clan.
He stood at the forefront, entangled with the Heaven-Mending Stone in fight, managing to completely suppress the multicolored radiance of the Heaven-Mending Stone.
Middle-stage of Nascent Soul Realm? No, it could even be the latter stage.
Facing this opponent, whose strength was no less than Cui Manlou’s, Su Chengyu dared not take the situation lightly. Seizing the moment before the other party noticed him, the Dragon Slayer Sword immediately flew out towards the member of the Nether Clan.
