Chapter Text:
The conversation splits into two parts. When the level restraint shattered and Wen Yu dispatched his spirit pets to support the main battlefield, the celestial god was in a concealed chamber, having a profound meeting with someone.
The person opposite the celestial god had green skin, an extremely tall stature, and broad, powerful shoulders that emanated a sense of strength.
This was the guardian no. 2, the one referred to by the golden armor as someone who “is not inferior to himself”!
At this moment, their conversation was nearing its conclusion. What they were discussing was not about Wen Yu, but rather the celestial god attempting to leverage the power of guardian no. 2 to clear away those “turning to the light” super gathering places on Earth, completely transforming the local landscape into his own stronghold.
While Wen Yu was cleansing the celestial god's influence on the layered battlefield, this celestial god was powerless, and similarly, the earth's will was helpless, leaving guardian no. 2 equally unable to intervene.
Wen Yu acted decisively with his current strength; perhaps apart from level twelve, no one dared to obstruct the decisions made by Wen Yu.
Naturally, the celestial god had to concede!
“I won’t go to the layered battlefield anymore. That should be acceptable, right?”
To this, Wen Yu had no objections, as he no longer coveted those things on Earth anyway.
Just as Lin Haifeng joked—the celestial god and Wen Yu have clearly divided the territories for you.
Theoretically, the celestial god didn’t need the help of the treasure land guardian. However, after the last incident, Tang Haofei had vanished without a trace, and no matter how the celestial god searched, he couldn’t find this guy. Now, with the celestial god's personnel dwindling and each super gathering place not easily manageable, when the earth's will proposed turning the Earth’s territory into a stronghold, the celestial god felt powerless. It was only after the earth's will indicated the celestial god should contact guardian no. 2 that a breakthrough occurred.
Indeed, this meeting was facilitated by the earth's will...
The celestial god didn't understand why the earth's will, this recluse, could contact guardian no. 2. He instinctively grasped this lifeline, arrived at the designated location, and really met guardian no. 2.
Thus began a wave of mutual flattery until the two reached an agreement.
Once the celestial god began to act, guardian no. 2 would send a treasure land guardian from his faction to provide a certain level of assistance and interference—direct intervention was out of the question, but secret support was permissible. A few level elevens working together would suffice to tilt the situation in favor of the celestial god.
As for the price...
There was no price.
Guardian no. 2 didn’t make any demands.
The celestial god didn’t quite understand, but seeing the situation shift in his favor, he didn’t waste more words and decisively prepared to leave.
At that moment, guardian no. 2 casually spoke up.
“By the way, I hear you’re looking for Tang Haofei?”
The celestial god paused briefly, thinking, "How does he know?" But he showed no expression on his face. He merely nodded and asked, “Do you have news about him, my lord?”
“Yes, that guy is hiding somewhere in the Antarctic Circle. The specific coordinates should be XXX, XXX, XXX. You wouldn’t believe it; that kid is living quite well in Antarctica. After you told me about the plan, I thought of Tang Haofei. If we could get him to help you, I believe there would be no obstacles to this plan.”
Guardian no. 2 spoke sincerely, as if he were considering everything for the celestial god, and the celestial god fell into short contemplation.
After their last encounter, Tang Haofei had vanished. Although the celestial god and Tang Haofei had exchanged communication devices, it was clear that Tang Haofei was not only avoiding Wen Yu but was also evading the celestial god. The communication device had long been discarded by Tang Haofei to who knows where.
