Chapter 425.2: Even If My White Moonlight Becomes Triple-Disabled, I Will Never Abandon Her

Longyue methodically explained her plan, “The spirit qi tide of Missing Moon Abyss is coming in thirty years. I know certain secrets concerning Heavenly Venerable Moqi, who guards the Missing Moon Abyss. During the spirit qi tide, Heavenly Venerable Moqi must enter seclusion and cannot be disturbed.

“When the time comes, have Qi Yuan secretly undo the permissions of the Creation Treasure, allowing Heavenly Venerable Caiyue to infiltrate. That way, we can severely injure Heavenly Venerable Moqi or even kill him!”

Though it sounded ordinary, accomplishing every single step would be extraordinarily difficult. Likewise, gathering this information had been no easy matter.

Jin Li remained calm. “I will pass this information on to him.”

Anticipation filled Longyue’s eyes. “Once we’ve succeeded in injuring or even killing Heavenly Venerable Moqi, Qi Yuan only has to flee into the Divine Moon Palace’s territory. I still believe you should persuade him to join us. He’s all alone and without a place to stand. If the Moluo Clan surrounds and attacks him, he will have nowhere to hide.”

If the plan were successfully carried out, she would make an enormous contribution thirty years from now. For so many years, both sides had constantly schemed against one another, seeking to severely injure or even kill the other’s Heavenly Venerables. Unfortunately, neither side had ever found an opportunity. Now that she had finally seen such an opportunity, how could she not be delighted?

Longyue declared domineeringly, “If Heavenly Venerable Moqi is killed, then even if you relinquish your status as a Moon Maiden, I will still apply for a Yang Spirit opportunity on your behalf!”

She had to do something about the Divine Moon Palace’s obvious decline.

Jin Li bowed, unconsciously puffing her chest. “Many thanks, Heavenly Venerable!”

Though she seemed proud of Qi Yuan, she also carried a trace of worry.

At the same time, within the Absolute Moon Abyss, a Moluo Mythic remained hidden in the darkness, fear and panic filling his eyes. From afar, he looked toward the center of Absolute Moon Abyss. “His Majesty has betrayed us!”

As one of the top ten Mythic experts of Absolute Moon Abyss, Mu Lan had always been responsible for its logistics. During this recent period, every clash between Absolute Moon Abyss and the Divine Moon Palace had ended in total annihilation. Information about their side seemed to be flowing freely into the Divine Moon Palace.

Mu Lan, cautious by nature, feigned ignorance while secretly investigating. That was how he received the shock of his life. Every clue pointed to Motong! Every troop deployment had been kept secret. Aside from the Mythic expert leading the forces and Motong, no one else knew about them.

Yet recently, troop deployments had become extremely frequent, almost as though they were deliberately sending people to their deaths. Everyone who knew about the deployment plans was dead. It became obvious that whoever remained alive was the spy. Their leader, the foremost figure in the Absolute Moon Abyss, was therefore the prime suspect. When Mu Lan found out, he was shocked beyond words.

He concealed his figure. “This matter must be reported to the other Heavenly Venerables!”

Things could not continue like this! At this rate, he would be sent to fight the Divine Moon Palace and die. Sitting around waiting for death was not his style.

“Heavenly Venerable Mochi? No. Heavenly Venerable Mochi is too weak. If I’m going to find someone, I should find someone powerful! In that case, Heavenly Venerable Moheng!”

Moheng was a Principle Yang Spirit whose strength within the Demon Abyss was second only to Motong! With that thought, Mu Lan entered the teleportation array and headed toward the territory guarded by Moheng. Just as his figure disappeared, a pair of golden eyes appeared in the heavens above.

Qi Yuan muttered to himself, “Life truly is full of unexpected surprises. Should I give him a scare later?”

At this point, he had practically stopped pretending altogether. Why the hell would he? He had nearly mowed down all the nearby Heavenly Venerables! The few remaining ones had also been marked as targets. As for Moheng, he had to be dealt with last.

Thankfully, he had already devised a complete plan to deal with Moheng. “When the time comes, it’ll be another day for my acting skills to explode!”

As a Principle Yang Spirit, Moheng was skilled at drawing other Heavenly Venerables to his side. He and five other Heavenly Position Yang Spirits even went so far as to create a small group chat, where they often chatted and complained about other Yang Spirits. Their relationships were clearly quite good. As a side note, not even Motong had known that these people secretly maintained contact with one another.

Now, Moheng was the only member of this little group still roaming free. Qi Yuan had captured the rest. After thinking about it, he decided that he could begin laying out the trap. Five communication devices appeared.

Hell yeah, a pig-butchering scam! Everyone in the group is my alt account, and you’re the only pig!

Qi Yuan began typing.

└Everyone, I saw purple light in the south, vaguely resembling Violet Qi. I fear it may be a scheme of the Divine Moon Palace, but would anyone like to explore it with me?

After a while, he picked up another account and typed his reply.

└Violet Qi? I’m coming!

The other accounts also logged in and began replying one after another.

└I want to go as well!

└Since we’ve seen it, let’s go together!

He then sent a question using one of the accounts.

└What about Heavenly Venerable Moheng? Does he want to come?

└Moheng is a Principle realm expert. Surely he would not care about that tiny wisp of Violet Qi?!

└Exactly. If it were a complete strand of Violet Qi, Heavenly Venerable Moheng might be interested. But a single wisp divided among five people probably won’t tempt him.

Qi Yuan held five accounts and chatted with himself inside the group. First, he would create a “truth” for Moheng. The other members saw a Violet Qi and were preparing to go to capture it. Once the groundwork had been laid, and the other Heavenly Venerables had all been captured, it would be Moheng’s turn.

His eyes gleamed sharply. “What a shame that the Moluo Clan has no strategist and that Moheng lacks wisdom! The Moluo Clan is not worth mentioning. Every last one of them will become triple-disabled.”

In truth, the success of these plans depended on three things: the Heavenly Venerables’ inability to resist the Myriad Principle Gate’s attraction, the Underworld’s ability to seal Heavenly Venerables within it, and Qi Yuan’s own strength. If any of these three conditions had not been met, it would have been impossible to silently take down a Yang Spirit without anyone noticing.

“After taking down the demon abyss, I can return to the Fifth Heaven to go fishing and carry my family’s well back home.”

As always, he did things with careful planning and methodical organization.
