The Earth's atmospheric blockade was shattered with a snap of a finger...
Bai was indeed impressive, so impressive that even the spirit of the demon lord was left stunned. He stared directly at the Earth, completely unprotected and exposed before him. In a moment, his eyes suddenly sparkled!
What did this mean for the spirit of the demon lord?
It meant he could bypass the Layered Battlefield and directly descend to Earth. With the power of the demon spirit, he had countless ways to reach the earth's core origin and completely transform the Earth into Lirada!
But there was one prerequisite...
The sovereign must not intervene.
However, as long as he was fast enough to make the transformation of Earth into Lirada a fait accompli, the sovereign would likely not care.
After all, the sovereign did not care about the ownership of Earth.
...
The demon spirit was still in a daze until Bai's voice snapped him back to reality.
"So, what do you think of my sincerity?"
[What do you think?]
[You’re practically my kin... ]
The demon spirit thought ecstatically... but of course, he could not show it.
He was just momentarily dazed, and then came to his senses. He looked at Bai and nodded slightly.
"Yes, this sincerity... is quite enough!"
"So, our cooperation..."
The demon spirit feigned hesitation, but after a moment, he nodded again.
"You speak! If I can do it, I will."
Hearing the demon spirit’s promise, Bai smiled.
"Actually, what I'm asking you to do is also beneficial for you. This is what we call a win-win situation..."
"Just say it directly!"
"I want you to help me kill Wen Yu!"
The demon spirit suddenly froze, then slowly fell into thought...
"This matter indeed is a win-win. I also want to kill Wen Yu."
"However..."
"It's not that I can't kill him; it's just very difficult... and there is also the sovereign..."
"Hehe..."
Faced with the demon spirit's hesitation, Bai suddenly grinned wickedly.
"Actually, killing someone is not as difficult as you think..."
"You can't kill him, but someone else can. Many times, you don’t need to do the killing yourself."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
The demon spirit was not stupid to begin with, and at this moment, with Bai's slight hint, he suddenly understood. He looked at the demon spirit, then glanced upwards, asking with implied meaning.
"You mean..."
"Exactly."
"Is that... possible?"
"What is impossible?"
At this moment, Bai was filled with ambition.
"As long as you follow my instructions, your goal will be within reach."
...
In the Sovereign's Hall.
The sovereign sat high upon the throne, playing with a light sphere emitting a faint white glow.
Inside the light sphere, one could see the origin power condensing, with newborn souls crying out. However, lacking the basic elements required for a planet's birth, this glowing mass was merely a speck of the world's essence, and could hardly be considered a complete world.
But this was, after all, a glimmer of hope...
Once, it was Bai's hope...
In fact, the sovereign still couldn't figure out why Bai betrayed him— the embryonic form of the new immortal heroic world was in his hands, and it was precisely because of this that Bai had agreed to all the sovereign's difficulties. However, the changes in the situation did not operate according to the sovereign's personal will.
Bai's sudden betrayal caught the sovereign completely off guard...
The sovereign did not know why Bai would betray him, but since things had come to this, it seemed that the "hostage" of the new immortal heroic world was no longer necessary.
Thinking this way, the sovereign intended to crush the new immortal heroic world, but as soon as he had this thought, his actions paused. Then, the sovereign gently smiled, tearing open space and placing the new immortal heroic world into his treasury.
It would be meaningless to vent his anger by erasing such a precious collection.
After handling the new immortal heroic world, the sovereign took a deep breath. He had just wanted to ponder the reasons behind Bai's betrayal when his heart suddenly jolted.
