Chapter 1015: Fuck the Celestial Being

Regarding Yan Yi’s arrangements, Yin Wang really couldn’t find out anything.

After leaving the Western Territory camp, he had no choice but to send another message to Han Yu.

“They don’t trust us at all. I’m afraid you’ll have to figure this one out on your own.”

Han Yu could only sigh helplessly, thinking that Yin Wang and the others’ situation later might not be great, but he really didn’t expect that they’d be excluded even before the final moment.

It seems that the route with Yin Wang is not viable.

Currently, what they can roughly infer is just a direction, and they are not even clear about the specific location.

If that’s all it is, then it’s basically useless.

Yin Wang even specifically reminded him that apart from Yan Yi, the other nine monsters have all disappeared.

He guessed they must be hiding in the dark, waiting to ambush him.

If he could think of setting a trap midway, the others undoubtedly could too.

It’s tough!

What’s most frustrating is that this is only one batch, not the entire thing. He still has to wait for all the Enlightenment Trees to come down.

There’s only this one chance, and he doesn’t dare to gamble.

The more Han Yu thought about it, the more troubled he became. At this moment, the token sounded again.

This time it was Wuxian.

“I’m also descending upon the Inquiry Stone.”

Alright! Everyone’s here.

Han Yu sighed once more, the things he wanted were gradually coming down.

The frustrating thing was that they were incredibly tough to obtain.

“So what’s the situation on your end?”

Han Yu couldn’t help but ask.

Near the oversea rock platform, Wuxian and the others watched the stones falling from the Celestial River, their expressions complex.

“It’s raining stones!”

The stones falling densely, continuously, appeared just like a torrential downpour.

Moreover, Jingzhe was more straightforward than Yan Yi, having driven away all cultivators except for Dharma Aspect monsters long before preparing to descend upon the Inquiry Stone.

To put it bluntly, the entire rock platform was now full of Dharma Aspect monsters, entirely their “own people.”

Wuxian and his group were treated the same way as Yin Wang, excluded.

Jiang Xinyuan wore a bitter smile, the gap couldn’t be bigger.

Now the Celestial Dao Sect, apart from the small cultivators they controlled, had nothing else they could command.

Whereas Jingzhe and his group were bossing them around like lackeys.

“We’re not far from death.”

Shang Wanfeng whispered under his breath.

If they still couldn’t see it by now, then they would’ve wasted all those years of life.

With a grim face, Wuxian gritted his teeth in silence.

“Before we get killed, let’s trick them one last time and give them a big con.”

Jiang Xinyuan couldn’t help but growl fiercely.

They still had some utility value, and the rules were something they could somewhat meddle with.

If they couldn’t pull off one last big score, he’d feel he’d let himself down.

Wuxian nodded, thinking the same as his counterpart.

If they’re going to betray, they might as well do it thoroughly. Since they’re leaning toward Central Continent, Central Continent simply cannot afford to lose; if they do, they’re going down with them.

So, helping Central Continent now is helping themselves.

“For a while, there definitely won’t be any movements, so let’s make a big move during this time.”

Wuxian spoke.

“I was thinking the same thing.”

On the other end of the token, Yin Wang couldn’t help but chime in, Yan Yi over there definitely wouldn’t finish arranging everything so quickly, enough time for Han Yu to make a big windfall.

Besides, both sides’ Qi Fortune items are descending; if they wait for the arrangements, these people will surely not leave easily.

Han Yu, on the other hand, is absolutely safe in this brief time frame.

He might even appear openly, as both sides would be wary of making any rash decisions.

The three factions made quick agreement, and Yin Wang began spreading his people across the Central Continent, Wuxian doing the same.

As for Han Yu, he prepared himself to once again roam and plunder.

This time, Yin Wang and Wuxian were almost acting without reservation, and the small cultivators below spread throughout Central Continent, either looking for rules or tracking Dharma Aspect monsters or Faceless Ones.

While Han Yu went full speed, darting between places, committing arson, looting, and murder as he pleased.

When news got back, Yan Yi and Jingzhe’s sides, as guessed, simply did not show up.

This further boosted Han Yu’s momentum, making him greedily snatch up rules without any restraint.

In just a matter of three days, most of the gains from both sides ended up on Han Yu.

Counting carefully, Han Yu’s Five Elements World had nearly four hundred rules, seemingly poised to equalize with both sides.

About half of the unclaimed rules remained, with advantages and disadvantages apparently equal.

The Artifact Spirit was delighted, watching the Five Elements World change, seemingly waiting to see what it could ultimately become.

The increase in rules not only made this world more real but also expanded the Five Elements World.

“In the future, you might actually be running around carrying a whole world.”

The Artifact Spirit said cheerfully.

Watching the changes in the Five Elements World, Han Yu was understandably overjoyed.

The only minor dissatisfaction was that there had been no news from Yin Wang and Wuxian for half a day.

Could it be that the rules have become harder to find?

While Han Yu was speculating, simultaneous messages came from both sides.

“A piece of bad news and a piece of good news.”

Yin Wang’s deep voice emerged from the token.

Without thinking, Han Yu immediately replied, “Let’s hear the good news first, I’ve had enough of the bad.”

There was a moment of silence from the token before the voice continued.

“No one’s fighting you guys in Central Continent for the rules for the time being.”

Han Yu’s eyebrows twitched, and he beamed with joy; this was indeed extremely good news. If no one was vying for them, wouldn’t that mean he’d have all the rules to himself?

The joy didn’t last long before the token slowly emitted another voice.

“The bad news is that all the Faceless Ones on my side have returned; they’re too scared to venture out anymore after what you did.”

Upon hearing this, Han Yu’s smile gradually faded.

This is the same damn thing!

It’s nothing but the Yama Hall over there unable to bear being robbed, and Yan Yi’s evil bunch scheming in silence, unable to come to him at the moment, thus choosing to recall all the Faceless Ones.

It seems they’ve figured out that if no one restrains Han Yu, everything they do will just be for his benefit.

So Yan Yi isn’t playing along anymore.

With him abstaining, Han Yu would lose a source of rules.

“Then what about your situation?”

Han Yu stubbornly asked Wuxian.

Unexpectedly, Wuxian let out a sigh, “Everything I wanted to say was said by him.”

The result was the same on the Celestial Dao Sect’s side, Jingzhe and the others couldn’t move, and didn’t want to see Han Yu profiting, thus recalled all the Dharma Aspect monsters outside.

Now, the Central Continent suddenly seemed to be haunted, empty and desolate, no other figures in sight.

“So damn petty.”

Han Yu gritted his teeth, face darkened, isn’t it just grabbing some rules, is it necessary to stay in?

Now it’s tricky. Should he have Central Continent’s people come in and continue searching?

He feared these wicked guys would hide and strike back.

If they didn’t come in, it would waste this entire blank period in vain.

“I’m planning to let the cultivators below keep searching.”

Yin Wang suddenly spoke out.

“What are you doing?”

Wuxian’s surprised voice echoed from the token.

The reason is simple, Yan Yi’s recall order couldn’t possibly be issued only to the Faceless Ones; it equally applied to Yin Wang’s group.

If Yin Wang insisted on being different, it would not only make Yan Yi suspicious but might also reveal their betrayal.

So Yin Wang doing this was akin to an open betrayal.

“I suspect that after this, Yan Yi won’t tolerate us anyway.”

Yin Wang’s voice was cold, his decision wasn’t spur of the moment but was instead well-thought-out.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have helped Han Yu pillage rules so recklessly.

Instead of waiting for Yan Yi to make a move, he’d rather openly turn traitor.

While they’re unable to act, he’d simply make a big last move.

“I’ll also have the cultivators continue searching on my end.”

Wuxian finally replied with a heavy tone after listening to Yin Wang.

Everyone’s situation was actually not much different; Jingzhe’s group was unlikely to treat Wuxian’s group much better, not to mention putting their lives under someone else’s whims was not their style at all.

“To hell with the Celestial Beings!”

In unison, Yin Wang and Wuxian burst into curses.
