Chapter 933 - 869: Another Small World

"Aren’t you planning to settle down?"

Artifact Spirit only realized something was amiss when Han Yu headed towards the Endless Sea Domain.

This wretched thing is heading towards the direction of the Soul Return Pointer.

It was instantly startled, just what is this wretched thing trying to do?

"The direction is wrong, wrong."

Artifact Spirit was reminding.

However, Han Yu mysteriously spoke up, "No, this is the right direction."

"What are you planning?"

Artifact Spirit was caught off guard and jumped up shouting.

"What do you say, if I sneak into the small world of the Yama Hall?"

After saying this, Han Yu found no response for a long time, quickly checked the Sea of Consciousness, and found Artifact Spirit was already dumbfounded, mouth agape.

"Damn you, I’m going to cut you open and see how big your guts are."

After a while, Artifact Spirit came to its senses and finally shouted angrily.

Now it felt like Soul Return, only thinking Han Yu is a complete lunatic.

The outside hasn’t even settled down, yet you’re thinking of running inside.

More importantly, it’s someone else’s headquarters! Headquarters!

What is a headquarters! It’s like Han Yu charging straight into someone’s lair, so how outrageous is that?

"I’m telling you, once you’re exposed in there, even a little, it’s death."

Artifact Spirit directly looked serious, speaking coldly.

Only an idiot would think of breaking in.

There’s no benefit at all, why do such a foolish thing.

"I want to steal Qi Fortune."

Han Yu suddenly spoke, directly scaring Artifact Spirit silly.

Goodness!

So since Soul Return couldn’t get it out, you’re personally going to "take" it, right!

But, there’s also a crucial point.

Inside are those Celestial Beings who’ve lived nearly ten thousand years, who knows how strong they are.

But surely not weak, after all, they’re beings that dealt with the Heavenly Dao ten thousand years ago.

Now, they’re likely only stronger, not weaker!

Artifact Spirit strongly disagreed with Han Yu going in, as it’s practically suicide.

No matter how lacking in Qi Fortune, there’s no reason to go in.

"No way, you can’t, you’re dragging me to die together."

Artifact Spirit spoke angrily.

Then softly persuaded, "Can’t you find another way?"

Another way?

Han Yu shook his head, he had thought about inciting both sides to fight again, and then tried to stealthily abduct one, then blackmail the other.

But this idea was quickly snuffed out.

The reason is simple, doing this is equivalent to telling the other side that he needs Qi Fortune, and if they’re not stupid, they’ll guess that Qi Fortune can enhance his strength, or even deduce more details.

This is already kind of exposing his cards.

He dared to let Soul Return know because Soul Return had no way back, only one path leading to darkness.

But blatant blackmail is definitely a no-go.

However, aside from blackmail, there’s certainly no other way to obtain Qi Fortune.

He sooner or later has to go in and steal it, there’s no other way but stealing.

So sooner rather than later, while both sides are quiet and plotting, he could go in and gain some benefit.

"Still not okay."

Han Yu’s words indeed convinced Artifact Spirit, but conviction is one thing; many matters can’t simply be resolved by reasoning.

For example, matters of life and death.

One can’t die for such matters!

"Actually, it may not necessarily be suicide."

Han Yu suddenly spoke thoughtfully, his figure paused, floating in the air, before his consciousness delved into the Sea of Consciousness.

Within the Five Elements world, the Glazed Bottle still stood quietly at the base of a big tree.

Han Yu suddenly spoke, in a peculiar tone, "Ping, let me ask you one thing, if you still want Qi Fortune, don’t play dead this time."

After his voice fell, Ping seemed to remain motionless.

But Han Yu still spoke, slowly, "Can your fog ensure I won’t be discovered in the Yama Hall lair? If yes, I’m going; if not, then I’m resting."

"Give a definite answer, yes or no, otherwise I’ll go back and sleep."

Han Yu said this, expecting Ping to at least provide some response, but this fellow still acted perfectly dead, not even giving a hint of movement.

"Look, it thinks not, going home to sleep."

Artifact Spirit turned worry to joy, suddenly delighted.

This way, they wouldn’t go.

It’s unclear if this was purposely to contradict Artifact Spirit or if Ping’s reaction was just slow.

Suddenly, the bottle started to shake, slightly swaying side to side.

"It’s nodding."

Han Yu’s eyes lit up, incredibly delighted but also secretly cursing.

Damn it, even this thing puts on a show for me.

The fact proves this thing can communicate.

But it depends on whether it wants to communicate with you.

Artifact Spirit couldn’t be happy anymore, struggling hard.

"No, it’s shaking its head."

"Rubbish, if it’s shaking its head it wouldn’t need to respond, I’m saying it’s nodding."

Han Yu directly and strongly refuted, and continued moving towards the original position, angering Artifact Spirit into shaking.

"We’re courting death, you must know if luck’s a little bad, we’ll both be done for."

It tirelessly persuaded, unable to stop Han Yu’s pace at all.

Until Han Yu reached a Deserted Island he had never been to, then Artifact Spirit hurriedly shut its mouth.

Han Yu was truly determined to go; it dared not interfere anymore.

Otherwise, it would truly be seeking death.

With the previous experience of creating a small breach in the Dimensional Heaven, Han Yu was now well-practiced and had even learned to control the strength.

With West River Slash in hand, a gentle stroke through the void, a faint glow slowly flickered in the void.

Han Yu instantly sheathed the sword, reached out with both hands to pry open that glow, slowly tearing open a gap.

A previously unseen world gradually unfolded, resembling an absurd Dream Realm.

A crack, with different worlds within and without.

When Han Yu slowly stuck his head inside, an eerie, terrifying vibe came over him, almost causing him to jump.

The world before him, although rich in Spiritual Power, was filled with all sorts of chilling aura.

Glancing merely once, Han Yu was already dumbfounded.

Inside was such a desolate world; for a moment, he questioned whether the old man was BSing.

Supposedly two of Central Continent’s most pristine places, how could this be their condition.

The Celestial Dao Sect’s explanation indeed made sense, but here it ultimately felt lacking.

Though the landscape was still lush, a glance would always evoke an extreme sense of desolation.

Between the overlapping mountains, gusts of ominous wind blew.

Mist lingered, magnifying the desolation.

"The richness of the spiritual qi can’t be wrong."

The Artifact Spirit truly didn’t want to entertain him but couldn’t hold back, so it spoke angrily.

Apart from these appearances, the concentration of spiritual qi could compare with that of the Celestial Dao Sect’s small world, making it a veritable holy land for cultivation.

After repeatedly confirming there was no one inside, Han Yu ensured he was shrouded in mist, then stealthily "slipped" through the door like a thief...

Western Territory!

Jiu You wore a sullen expression; anyone betrayed wouldn’t be in a cheerful mood.

Wujiu was even more direct, speaking with murderous intent, "Leave him alive? That’s truly difficult."

If there really were a chance, he might just blast Han Yu to death.

The bastard dragged them into the gutter while being hunted himself, a complete scoundrel indeed.

When Hun Bugui returned with Shi Xiu, Wujiu’s face immediately stiffened.

Once again, these two guys had fled the battlefield.

"You dared to desert in battle?"

His voice was already cold as he spoke.

While feeling helpless inside, Hun Bugui managed to put on a look of terror, his acting suddenly on display.

"Sir, we didn’t flee. Han Yu took us away!"

Han Yu again?

But this time, Wujiu was already filled with killing intent, encountering Han Yu twice, being let go twice?

"Do you really take me for a fool?"

If this was possible, then hell would truly break loose.

Wujiu even prepared to strike, and Hun Bugui and Shi Xiu retreated hastily with profound fear on their faces.

"Sir, it truly is Han Yu’s doing."

"Let them speak."

Jiu You slowly intervened to stop Wujiu, then coldly looked at the two as he spoke, "You’d better give me a good explanation."

Hun Bugui glanced at Wujiu cautiously, as if hesitating to speak.

"Speak up."

Jiu You urged softly.

Only then did Hun Bugui stammer out, "Han Yu said Master Wujiu is a complete fool, letting us return just to disgust him."

Bloody hell!

Wujiu exploded with rage immediately, yet Jiu You went cold-faced, "That excuse isn’t enough."

Merely this reason for taking someone and letting them go later?

Clearly not enough, so Hun Bugui continued to speak.

"Han Yu entrusted us with delivering a message."

Jiu You’s brow twitched, but he patiently waited.

Then, Hun Bugui revealed the entire matter regarding the entrance to the Celestial Dao Sect’s small world.

Now, both Jiu You and Wujiu’s expressions had drastically changed.

Unbelievable and even skeptical.

Han Yu knew about the Celestial Dao Sect’s entrance?

Not only knew, but he also intentionally told them.

"Not hard to understand."

Jiu You suddenly spoke; he realized that Han Yu was still the same, just counting on them to deal with the Celestial Dao Sect.

"I won’t play along with him, just pretending I didn’t hear anything."

Wujiu responded defiantly on the side.

To let a little brat lead them by the nose, it was too much indeed.

"Can you hold back?"

Jiu You expressed his doubt, only believing that Han Yu used this move extremely well indeed.

Regardless of whether they fell for it or not, knowing something was knowing.

How could they leave such an advantage unused?

Even if they could gain a little advantage eventually, they would try to ambush him at any turn.

"What else did he say?"

Jiu You asked with a stern expression.

Hun Bugui showed a bitter smile, "He said we are merely burdens, a pity to kill, so it’s perfect to keep us here to annoy you two."

Indeed quite annoying, looking at Hun Bugui and him was somewhat uneasy.

Neither useful nor easy to ignore.

Like unyielding nuisances.

Without proper reason, killing was unnecessary, not killing was just irritating.

Unable to rely on for important matters, not needed for trivial ones either.

Useless!

Jiu You regarded the two with an inexplicable thought of such a term.

"Dismiss them!"

Until even seeing them he started to feel irritated.

"Truly letting them go like this?"

Wujiu watched them leave, unable to contain his skepticism.

This excuse was quite implausible.

Just to annoy?

Letting go of two in the Divine Dao Realm?

"If it were you, would you dare to return with such an excuse if there were issues?"

Jiu You counter-questioned, and Wujiu was left speechless.

Such a ridiculous excuse, if it was him, he surely wouldn’t dare return. Returning would probably lead to death.

"I expect they dare not play tricks."

Jiu You spoke confidently.

On the other side, Hun Bugui calmly accompanied Shi Xiu out and finally exhaled deeply when they reached a deserted area.

Shi Xiu was worse off, her pretty face was uncontrollably pale, glaring fiercely at him.

Because he hadn’t informed her of such an implausible excuse, she didn’t dare say a word throughout.

Only dared to listen silently, even trying hard to maintain a facial expression.

Now her back was already soaked with cold sweat.

Hun Bugui was no different, needing to respond fluently while perfectly controlling his expressions, he was indeed the toughest one.

As for the excuse?

He sighed helplessly and spoke softly.

"Dealing with such clever people, you’d best make your excuses unreasonable, the more reasonable it is, the more they like to question, leading to a quicker demise."

His excuse was outrageous enough but logically coherent.

Most importantly, it perfectly aligned with Han Yu’s style, resembling exactly something he would do.
