Doomsday Summoning Frenzy

Between revenge and fleeing...

Well, Wen Yu didn't hesitate much at all.

Speaking of which, with the situation being like this, when the sovereign and Fang Yujie settle their scores, there will definitely be an opponent that he can never defeat—regardless of who wins or loses between the sovereign and the immortal emperor, he wouldn’t get any good outcome.

So, if not now, when should he run?

With this thought in mind, Wen Yu turned his head to glance at Bai and Tang Haofei, and his steps subtly shifted, slowly moving towards the entrance of the sovereign palace.

There was no need to say goodbye to anyone; Wen Yu thought, just running away would be enough!

However...

Bai suddenly turned around, looking at Wen Yu...

"Aren't you going to wait here for the final outcome?"

"Um... How long do you think it will take to get a result?"

"Who knows? Maybe a day, maybe a year? After all, this is the first time such a thing has happened since the heaven opening..."

Bai said with a smile, while Wen Yu gently shook his head.

"Then I'll not wait, I have a lot of things to do outside."

"Can you tell me what those things are?"

"Sorry... I can't!"

As he spoke, Wen Yu had already used "ghost steps" to reach the entrance of the sovereign palace, until just then, Bai once again spoke.

"You want to leave, right?"

"..."

"By the way, do you know how to get back to Earth from here?"

"Uh..."

This time, Wen Yu was truly at a loss.

All along, whenever he arrived at the sovereign palace cluster, it was always the treasure land guardian who led the way, and when leaving, it was also the treasure land guardian who helped open the door. However, this time, after such a huge commotion in the sovereign palace, he hadn't seen any treasure land guardians come to take a look—even the avatar of the demon spirit that had just been standing at the door had already met a tragic end in the aftermath of the battle.

Without a key, how could he leave?

Suddenly, the "Southeast" mentioned by the eighth voice echoed in his mind, but Wen Yu maintained a calm expression, merely scratching his head awkwardly.

"I remember you're also a treasure land guardian, right? So why not lend a hand..."

After Bai's betrayal, the sovereign might not have stripped Bai of his authority as a treasure land guardian due to not being able to capture him, which provided Fang Yujie with an opportunity.

In other words, the current sovereign palace cluster was completely defenseless against Bai...

Hearing Wen Yu's words, Bai finally laughed out loud. He shook his head, looking at Wen Yu, and an unusual light began to rise in his eyes.

"Wen Yu, oh Wen Yu, others may not understand you, but how could I not understand?"

"You just want to return to Earth and then leave it all behind."

Bai pointed out Wen Yu's intentions, and Wen Yu stayed silent, after a moment, he simply nodded.

His little thoughts could already deceive Tang Haofei; if he wanted to fool Bai, that would be a delusion!

"But don't you think it's too late for you to want to extricate yourself now?"

I didn’t have the chance before...

Wen Yu silently complained in his heart, but he only heard Bai continue.

"This world is like a swamp; whether we step in actively or passively, once in, trying to extricate oneself becomes exceedingly difficult..."

"Wen Yu, I ask you, after all that's happened, how can you still harbor the illusion that 'I can leave unscathed'?"

Wen Yu remained silent for a moment, not directly answering Bai's question; he just pointed at the Heavenly Gifted Stone ahead.

"I think your focus should be on that."

Bai, however, shook his head.

"I can't interfere with the Heavenly Gifted Stone, and I don't have the ability to do so, but based on my prior assessment with the immortal emperor, you are definitely an unstable factor."

"Think about it, the reborn person chosen by the demon lord... the sequence one of this world... no matter how you are in character, your identity has determined that you cannot stay out of it!"

"This matter does not change according to your will; indeed, you do not want to get involved anymore, and yes, you have the thought of wanting to extricate yourself... but unfortunately, your power, your identity, have already determined that your existence is an unstable factor, a potential risk!"
