“What does this have to do with the hunting reward plan?”
Wen Yu’s attitude remained indifferent, but he still needed to engage. With the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine unwilling to elaborate, Luo Hai was definitely a good choice to provide some information.
“The dispute between the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor and the Drunken Daoist has lasted for billions of years. Under their leadership, the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance has also split into two major factions.”
“After being resurrected, the grudges between the two factions have not ceased, and the leaders of these factions have now become the Heavenly Dao Lord and the Great Luo Alliance Master.”
“However, the identity of the young master as the son of the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor has undoubtedly been labeled as belonging to the Heavenly Dao faction.”
“So, I fear that the people from the other faction might target his highness the young master during this hunting reward plan. That’s why I dared to come and see his highness the young master, hoping to offer some assistance.”
After saying these words, Luo Hai paused slightly before adding, “This is also the common goal of all the people from the deathmatch faction participating in this hunting plan.”
“He’s talking nonsense; don’t listen to his gibberish.”
The Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine bluntly rejected Luo Hai’s claims.
Wen Yu remained silent and asked with slight confusion, “Aren’t you the son of the Great Luo Alliance Master? How did you end up on the side of the Heavenly Dao?”
Hearing Wen Yu’s question, Luo Hai forced a bitter smile. “I was originally part of the continuity faction, but after the Immortal Emperor died, the Immortal Heroic World fell into its most difficult battle. At that time, many from the deathmatch faction chose to join our side, trying to align with the sovereign, but in the end…”
“We were tricked by the Drunken Daoist and the sovereign.”
“Tricked?”
Luo Hai nodded. “In the entire Immortal Heroic World, only the Drunken Daoist survived.”
“He became the sovereign's treasure land guardian.”
...
To survive and serve others, well, according to Wen Yu’s understanding, everything the Drunken Daoist did can be comprehensively explained with that sentence.
However...
The information Luo Hai provided was indeed significant.
In the entire Immortal Heroic World, only the Drunken Daoist managed to survive. Though he paid a great price, this choice was not without merit during such desperate times.
As for how the Drunken Daoist became the sovereign’s treasure land guardian, Wen Yu didn’t ask further—after all, Luo Hai wouldn’t know either.
Luo Hai’s subsequent remarks grabbed Wen Yu’s attention once again.
“Upon realizing that the Drunken Daoist had tricked us, the entire continuity faction immediately fell into collapse. Aside from a few die-hard members clinging to the belief that 'the Drunken Daoist’s ideas are feasible, he will eventually establish connections with the sovereign and come back for us,' the remaining members all gave up hope, joining the deathmatch faction to prepare for a death match against the demonic clan in the Heavenly Palace.”
“It was at that time I chose to leave the continuity faction and join the Heavenly Dao Lord. His highness the young master need not doubt my identity; anyone who knows me from either faction could confirm it.”
Luo Hai had no need to deceive Wen Yu with his words; these were established facts. Perhaps aside from Wen Yu, the entire Heavenly Palace was somewhat aware of these matters.
So, Wen Yu didn’t say anything more, merely nodding to indicate he understood.
“Well then, what does his highness the young master mean?”
“Go back for now. I’ll let you know my decision the day after tomorrow morning.”
In reality, there wasn’t any decision; Wen Yu’s attitude was very resolute—cooperation was impossible! No matter how beautifully Luo Hai spoke, it was absolutely out of the question!
