Chapter 284: 165, the driving force behind everything_2
But Rem harbored not the slightest suspicion.
Or rather, she indeed sensed something off, but didn’t bother to think it through, allowing herself to be deceived by Xu Yuan’s words.
Rem’s gaze fell upon Tao Yaoyao, watching her timidly whimper before complexly looking at Xu Yuan and saying,
“Your Highness, please be careful in my absence.”
“There’s no need to worry so much about me, just focus on the mission,”
Xu Yuan waved his hand dismissively.
This body might not be particularly proficient in spell battles, but if it’s about survival, it is definitely tough.
...
The cold wind howled, and the clouds were dark and stars dimmed.
When Xu Yuan arrived at the Star Vault with Tao Yaoyao, familiar darkness swept in, bringing an unprecedented sense of oppression.
Under the encroachment of the darkness, Xu Yuan even felt an illusion as if he was contending against the world itself.
“Divine Child Your Highness, where do you intend to take the Prophetic Fox?”
The Dark Night Immortal Lord said smilingly, though his eyes betrayed no mirth.
Xu Yuan glanced downward slightly, stroking “Tao Yaoyao’s” fur while he spoke indifferently, “Since when do I need to explain my actions to you?”
Upon hearing this, a flash of annoyance swept through the Dark Night Immortal Lord’s eyes, darkening his expression.
“What a grand presence you have, Divine Child. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to take this Demon Fox with you today.”
“Oh?”
Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes, “How do you know that I would let it go?”
“You guess.”
A mocking smile flickered in the Dark Night Immortal Lord’s eyes.
“Backstabbed?”
Xu Yuan pondered, but after glancing at “Tao Yaoyao” in his arms, he felt that wasn’t likely.
After all, the other party still hadn’t realized that he created the illusion with his immortal power, mimicking the Illusory Realm.
Therefore, the possibility of being backstabbed was very small.
If so, who could have anticipated his thoughts beforehand?
You see... had he not used the simulator to cross into this “self,” this “self” may not have chosen to save Tao Yaoyao.
“Divine Child Your Highness, you seem to be stalling,”
Seeing Xu Yuan making no move to act, the Dark Night Immortal Lord couldn’t help but speak out, “Could it be that you think if you delay long enough, you’ll have a chance of winning? Let me tell you frankly, today, not only will the Prophetic Fox die, but you as well.”
With that, he spread his arms, and from the depths of the void, at the far end of the dark night, one figure after another emerged indifferently.
Xu Yuan watched the scene quietly, remaining silent.
“You seem to be expecting this?”
“Is that so?”
The Ancient Goddess sighed softly, seeing that he was determined, she did not try to persuade him any further, and raised her fingertip, lightly touching.
In the depths of the starry river, endless light dazzled and spiraled down.
She did not hold back. The moment she made her move, she already pushed the Immortal Court’s Formation to its limit.
Since Xu Yuan had decided to oppose the Immortal Court to the end, in order to prevent the Dark Night Immortal Lord from using her recent act of passing on the message as a pretext later, she too had to go all out.
...
Meanwhile, as Xu Yuan was being stopped by numerous Daoist Lords, a clear silhouette cloaked in lightning was tearing through the sky at tremendous speed.
However, just when the vast sounds of tremors shaking the heavens erupted behind her, a figure enveloped in countless bolts of lightning slowly emerged from the clouds ahead, appearing before her as though it had been waiting for a long time.
Rem looked up, her expression immediately darkening.
“Lady Dian, what do you want to do?”
“Rem, I should be the one asking, what do you want to do?”
“The Divine Child has ordered me to take the Demon Fox to the boundary between the human and demon clans.”
Lady Dian looked at her expressionlessly and stated, “The Immortal Emperor commands, the Divine Child rebels against the court, hence I am sent to execute the Demon Fox.”
“...”
Rem’s gaze fell upon Tao Yaoyao, who was trembling behind her, and she said flatly, “Where are your orders?”
Lady Dian glanced at her indifferently and waved her hand.
The next moment, a string of golden characters filled with the True Meaning of the Great Dao appeared in front of her.
“You have betrayed the Divine Child?”
“It is not I who have betrayed him; it is the Divine Child who has betrayed the Immortal Court.”
Rem was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then exhaled.
“Sorry, I have orders from the Divine Child.”
She spoke calmly.
The wind came from behind, lifting her hair, which faintly glimmered.
“It seems that between death and rebirth, you have chosen ignorance now.”
A flicker of ‘as expected’ passed through Lady Dian’s eyes, and she sighed softly.
“Unfortunately, no matter how powerful the Divine Child is, he is still just the Divine Child after all, and he can never represent the Immortal Court.”
Her tone carried a hint of regret.
“He can’t represent the Immortal Court?”
Rem looked at her coldly, “Isn’t it the high and mighty Immortal Emperor who can’t really represent the Immortal Court?”
