On the battlefield of the Five Peaks Territory, Qin Chen had been paying close attention. He had thought of many ways for the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor to resolve the situation, but he never expected it would be through self-destructing Soul Yueshan.
Decisive and ruthless!
Beside Qin Chen, the Emperor of Beginning Charm, the Dark Moon Nether Maiden, and the Prison Dragon Great Emperor also sensed everything, each feeling an immense shock in their hearts.
Such a monumental place, and it just self-destructed like that. Asking themselves, if it were them, could they do it?
No, they absolutely could not.
"This Five Peaks Underworld Emperor is quite interesting, very decisive. Unfortunately, his actions are still a step behind, not decisive enough. What a pity," said Mo Li with a grin, a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Everyone stared at Mo Li in disbelief. They had just seen their own dojo self-destruct, and he still claimed it was not decisive enough?
Sensing their gazes, Mo Li sneered, "What? You don’t believe me? I can tell you that if the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor ends up failing later, it will be due to his lack of decisiveness today."
Mo Li grinned wickedly, "The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor must also feel another force targeting him from behind. Though he guessed it was the Emperor of the Netherworld, he might also suspect there are others behind the Emperor. What he does now is simply to clear his name, trying to draw everyone's attention to the Emperor of the Netherworld and shift the target."
"Unfortunately, since others have already acted before him, he can only step into their arrangements. If it were me, I would have opened the abyss passage directly, summoned the Abyssal Clan, and triggered the entire territory’s rule formation, not just self-destructing Soul Yueshan, but the entire territory's rules..."
As he spoke, Mo Li grinned madly, "By that time, half of the Underworld's many emperors might be dead or injured. After that, we can unite with the Abyssal beings, surround the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan, and resolve that troublesome Emperor. Then, no matter what schemes the Emperor of the Netherworld might have, we would be in an unbeatable position."
Hiss!
Hearing Mo Li's words, everyone felt their scalps go numb.
This guy is a madman.
To detonate the rules of the entire Five Peaks Territory? If he were to do so, the entire Underworld would likely fall into great turmoil.
"Hehe, why are you all looking at me like that? Let me tell you, if you want to do something, do it big. Sneaking around, being timid, will never lead to great achievements," Mo Li laughed derisively.
Qin Chen glanced lightly at Mo Li. Under Qin Chen's gaze, Mo Li, who had been talking excitedly, suddenly fell silent.
"Let’s go." Qin Chen glanced at the distant location of Soul Yueshan, where the hazy abyssal aura was swirling. He knew that this was intentional by the Emperor of the Netherworld, meant to obscure the abyss passage. Though Mo Li had belittled the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, in Qin Chen's view, this Emperor still had many commendable aspects.
Qin Chen soared into the sky.
"Master, where are we going now? The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor and the others have gone to Yellow Spring Mountain. Can the Emperor of the Netherworld withstand them by himself?" The Emperor of Beginning Charm said hesitantly, seeing that Qin Chen was flying in a direction that was clearly not Yellow Spring Mountain.
"The Emperor of the Netherworld is not an idiot. As long as he responds appropriately, he should be fine," Qin Chen replied calmly.
Everyone else remained silent.
"But this direction is also not towards the Eternal Calamity Sea?" the Emperor of Beginning Charm asked in confusion. "Master, aren’t you going to protect the Mistress at the Eternal Calamity Sea?"
The others also looked on in confusion.
"Who said I was returning to the Eternal Calamity Sea?"
"This... If we’re not going back to the Eternal Calamity Sea, then where are we going?"
Everyone was astonished.
