The Yama Great Emperor felt despair in his heart. At such a moment, the enemy was still so meticulous, how could he not be shocked?
"You are from the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, aren't you?" Struggling, the Yama Great Emperor did not wait for Qin Chen to answer, and shouted angrily again, "The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor colluded with the Abyssal Clan. His goal is the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls, right? So, the disappearance of the Underworld Dark Moon Empress is related to him. The fall of the Emperor of the Netherworld in the cosmic sea is likely also related to him, isn't it?"
The Yama Great Emperor kept roaring, trying to confirm something.
"Hehe."
Mo Li chuckled lightly, his entire body radiating a cold abyssal aura. He only sneered and did not answer, resembling a ghost.
The Yama Great Emperor stared at him fiercely, his eyes filled with anger, unwillingness, and the last glimmer of hope, and shouted, "Abyssal Clan, what exactly do you see in the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor? Let me go, I can persuade the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls to cooperate with you!" The Yama Great Emperor's voice was urgent, "Don't trust the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor. As the emperor of the four extremes, his purpose in cooperating with you is definitely not pure. He must have his own ambitions, and sooner or later, your Abyssal Clan will suffer backlash. Aren't you looking for an agent? I can be one, and so can the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls!"
"My Domain of the Forest of Yan has immense influence in the Underworld."
"Trust me, my relationship with the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls has always been close-knit, extremely intimate since ancient times in the Underworld. As long as you let me go, I can persuade the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls, and he will definitely cooperate with you!"
"Since you are looking for agents, why cooperate solely with the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor? It’s better to add the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls to the mix. You can maintain balance and intrigue, which serves your interests."
"Believe me, let me go. I, the Yama Great Emperor, have no ambitions. I can submit to anyone. Just let me go, and I can submit. I can do it."
"In fact, you don’t know, I have admired your Abyssal Clan my entire life, I just never had the opportunity to pledge allegiance."
The Yama Great Emperor continued to roar.
In order to save himself, he was willing to submit to these people.
He only sought to live.
To live.
Only by living can there be hope; once dead, everything would be lost.
Having survived in the Underworld for so many years, the Yama Great Emperor understood this all too well.
"In front of this seat, you dare to dig at the great one's corner?" At this moment, Qin Chen walked step by step through the void, carrying a hint of disdain and a touch of pride, and said lightly, "There is no need for that. In this Underworld, the Abyssal Clan does not need so many agents. One great one is enough."
"However, you are mistaken about one point. The disappearance of the Underworld Dark Moon Empress and the fall of the Emperor of the Netherworld were indeed orchestrated by the great one, but the Underworld Dark Moon Empress is truly missing, while the Emperor of the Netherworld is merely faking his fall. It’s a pity that the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls has been kept in the dark, thinking that the great one wants to join forces with him to control the Underworld. With such intelligence, the Abyssal Clan would probably look down on him."
Fake fall?
The Yama Great Emperor’s heart shook violently. What did the other party mean?
He wasn't an ordinary emperor, nor was he just a dog of the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls. Rather, he was someone who had an extremely close relationship with the Lord Yan Emperor of the Ten Halls. Although he had served in Fengdu City for so many years, their relationship was not the traditional strict employer-employee dynamic.
Thus, he naturally knew about the news of the Emperor of the Netherworld's fall.
