Chapter 5115 Collusion
What is he doing here? wondered Long Chen, taken aback.
Lu Fan had come with a mask to conceal his identity, but it was ineffective against the violet crystal heavenly eye. What shocked Long Chen the most was that all the devil creatures gathered in response to Lu Fans arrival, as if they were greeting him.
The sight of six six-vein Heaven Saints and hundreds of three-vein Heaven Saints in one place was truly frightening.
Greetings, son of Brahma!
One of the six-vein Heaven Saints stepped forward and cupped his fists to Lu Fan, cupping his fists in a deeply respectful gesture toward Lu Fan. The sheer respect in his tone ignited Long Chens anger.
Fuck, as expected, its a scheme. Theyre colluding! Long Chens fury seethed, causing him to clench his teeth. It made sense now why Lord Brahma hadnt mobilized his forces to drive off the devil creaturesthey were actually allies!
Fuck, Im recording everything. Lets see how you feign innocence this time! muttered Long Chen.
Since entering the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain, he had activated a photographic jade in the primal chaos space to capture everything he observed. This was a feat others couldnt achieve easily. After all, photographic jades were usually detectable by experts, and the spatial chaos from battles could easily destroy them.
However, Long Chen was different. His photographic jade was in the primal chaos space, recording everything he saw, and no one could sense it.
Eh? Whats that scar on his face? wondered Long Chen, as he noticed a strange scar on Lu Fans face, running from his forehead to his mouth. The scar was faintly bloody and curved, unlike any weapon marks Long Chen was familiar with. Even if someone used different techniques, there was no way to draw such a line.
Damn! Long Chens jaw suddenly dropped. Why does that scar look like it was made by Mo Nians shovel?
He took out his own shovel and compared its curve to the scar on Lu Fans face. It was a perfect match.
That fellow Mo Nian, how did he do this? Long Chen was stunned.
After all, Mo Nian had entered the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain before Lu Fan, who then chased after him. According to the spatial transportation laws of the gate, they shouldnt have ended up in the same location.
Most importantly, Mo Nian wouldnt make such a low-level mistake. To guarantee his safety, he would have used some special transportation talismans to evade his enemies pursuit.
How vicious. Even with Lu Fans power, he still cant erase that scar. Mo Nian must have done something to his shovel, Long Chen laughed. It was a move that suited Mo Nians character perfectly.
Long Chen wasnt sure if Lu Fan was wearing the mask to conceal his identity or to hide the scar on his face. Regardless, Lu Fans expression didnt look too good. He coldly said, The valley master sent me here to inquire about the situation at the axis sea.
An elder of the devil creatures responded, Please inform the valley master that everything is proceeding smoothly. We are still diligently working on suppressing them.
Lu Fan sneered upon hearing this. In other words, there has been no real progress?
The elder didnt get angry and calmly answered, I wouldnt say that. The great Heaven Devils are stationed on that side, and it takes time for the information to reach us from there.
Then what about this side of the axis sea? demanded Lu Fan, maintaining his arrogance even in front of six-vein Heaven Saints.
Everything is normal on this side. It is under control, replied the elder.
What control? Lu Fan instantly exploded in rage. You said everything was under control at the High Firmament Academy too! We warned you repeatedly to reinforce that area, but you ignored our warnings! You allowed the High Firmament Academy to reclaim their first branch without any resistance, and now you dare speak of control?!
Hearing his aggressive words, the devil creatures roared furiously. Even the three-vein Heaven Saints started to circulate their heaven vein energy, looking like they would attack at any time.
In the face of so many aggressive devil creatures, Lu Fan showed no sign of fear. He sneered contemptuously, though his expression was hidden by his mask, so only Long Chen could see it.
The elder waved his hand, signaling the devil creatures to stand down. He then turned his gaze to Lu Fan. If the Brahma Pill Valley is dissatisfied with that matter, feel free to report it to the Heaven Devils. It has nothing to do with us. We respect the Brahma Pill Valley and Divine Venerate Brahma, but that doesnt mean I will tolerate your insolence indefinitely. Think it over.
The elders tone turned icy, his demeanor firm. Though he was displeased by Lu Fans harsh criticism, he managed to remain calm.
Lu Fan coldly said, According to our informants, the seal on this side of the axis sea isnt going well. Many are searching for their ancestors and have already reached the depths of the Endless Desolation. This poses a severe threat to us.
Long Chens heart raced as he realized he was overhearing a crucial secret.
The elder snorted in response. What do you mean, our seal isnt going well? The issue lies with the Brahma Pill Valleys control. Your lack of oversight has allowed some individuals to sneak into the depths of the Endless Desolation. Not only that, but your Brahma Pill Valley also promised to eradicate the original devil race. Yet, theyve resurfaced in the Endless Desolation, their divine marks suppressing our dark energy and causing us to take heavy losses. Other races have exploited this to breach our defenses. So tell me, who should be blaming whom?
The original devil race? Long Chens mind raced as he thought of Yue Xiaoqian, his concern mounting. Had she already ventured into the depths of the Endless Desolation? He was overwhelmed with worry and felt a strong urge to go after her immediately.
Weve long since erased most of them. All that remains are the numerous tiny branches, which pose no significant threat. If you cant handle even that, what use are you to Divine Venerate Brahma? Lu Fan sneered.
You...! The elder trembled with rage. The Brahma Pill Valleys negligence was the root cause of the problems, yet they shifted the blame onto the devil creatures side. If it werent for Lu Fans special status, this elder would have crushed him on the spot.
Tell me, have there been any movements on the violet blood races side? asked Lu Fan.
At Lu Fans question, Long Chen instantly perked up.
