Chapter 890: Trap and Persuade to Surrender

Seeing the sudden change occurring before them, Zi Xing, the Snake King, Ice Soul, Old Tian, and Luo Haonan all felt a piercing chill descend upon them.

The piercing chill ran throughout their bodies.

The situation was very clear. Qiu Dao and Wan Tong had both betrayed them and joined the Divine Emperor.

This resulted in the entire plan of attacking the Divine Emperor to be just a trap.

The Snake King’s pupils contracted as he glared at Qiu Dao and Wan Tong with a pair of snake-like eyes. Killing intent seethed within them.

“Qiu Dao! Are you crazy?!”

“Am I crazy? No, I’m not. I’m very sane.” Qiu Dao laughed. “Instead, I should be asking you. Do you really know what you’re doing?”

“Defeat the Divine Emperor? Reach tier five of the Divine level? Return to your original world? Think about how long you guys have been here,” Qiu Dao said, laughing coldly. “The worlds that you came from should all be going through a metamorphosis, right? Otherwise, there’s no way that you’d be able to reach tier four of the Divine level.

“With the world’s metamorphosis going on, this means that your enemies are all progressing at a rapid rate. This means that your world will be welcoming the next onslaught.

“How long have you been in this world? Luo Haonan, even if you were to return now, your enemies would have surpassed you by a lot. And with you having wasted so much time, what do you think are your chances of survival in this tribulation?”

At the side, Wan Tong nodded, deep in agreement. He had also been persuaded by Qiu Dao due to these reasons. Right now, he said while feeling aggrieved, “There’s no way for us to turn back now. Rather than head back, we might as well just stay here.” He took a long look at the few Divine level experts before him and tried to persuade them, “Just surrender. There’s no meaning to our battle at all.”

The duo’s persuasions were very effective. The malevolent intents of a few of the Divine level experts seemed to have weakened, and a dead silence fell inside the great golden pagoda.

At the next moment, Old Tian appeared next to Qiu Dao with a flash as he said with his head lowered, “If I were to surrender to the Divine Emperor, he won’t act unfavorably toward me, right?”

Qiu Dao said firmly, “Don’t worry. The Divine Emperor has no intention to wipe out everyone. He won’t even apply any restrictive means. After we join that side, we’ll be serving one person but standing atop everyone else. We can still live the lives we are currently leading.

“No, with the support form the Divine Emperor’s technology, we’ll be able to lead better lives than the ones we’re living now.”

Old Tian looked at the Snake King and the others a little awkwardly, saying, “I’m sorry. I never did like fighting that much. Moreover, what Qiu Dao and Wan Tong said is right. So what if we can return to our worlds?”

“Don’t say another word,” the Snake King said and let out a cold snort. “I don’t trust the Divine Emperor.”

Zi Xing and Ice Soul, who were next to the Snake King, also revealed cold glances. Killing intents surged in their hearts. “After having fought for so many years, do you think that we’re unaware what kind of person the Divine Emperor is? He is a b*stard. Even if I die, I won’t surrender to him.”

Luo Haonan appeared nervous and hesitant, not knowing how to handle this situation.

The four of them instantly started to converse through information currents.

The Snake King said, “We definitely must not surrender. Considering the kind of person the Divine Emperor is, god knows how he’ll deal with us.”

“We’ll get rid of Wan Tong first. Old Tian doesn’t have a strong will to fight, and Qiu Dao’s defense won’t be destroyed within a short moment,” Ice Soul analyzed calmly. “Wan Tong has dispersed the ether particles. As long as we defeat him, we’ll be able to turn the tables around by a lot.”

Zi Xing gritted her teeth and seethed, “These double-crossers… I’m going to tear off their skin.”

Luo Haonan suddenly said, “Have you guys seen Fang Xingjian?”

When the other three heard this, they were suddenly shocked. As their martial will swept out, Fang Xingjian, who had been standing at the side, had disappeared.

Zi Xing frowned. “He left?”

“When did that happen?”

“Damn it. I knew that this guy wasn’t reliable,” the Snake King said furiously.

“Forget about him.” Ice Soul’s martial will swept out toward the entire Seven Saints’ Great Golden Pagoda.

More and more robotic armies covered the exterior of the great golden pagoda as the densely-packed swarms of bugs moved about. They accumulated to a thickness of over ten meters outside the golden pagoda, and it was as if the golden pagoda had become a great hornets’ nest.

They kept on tearing and biting at the surface of the Seven Saints’ Great Golden Pagoda, sending streams of plasma flames gushing out from their mouths.

Without the ether particles replenishment and the reinforcements from the seven Divine level experts, the Seven Saints’ Great Golden Pagoda could only rely on their own strength to fend off the robotic armies’ advancement. As the golden glow on its surface grew increasingly weaker, it was as if the robotic armies would be able to break through the Seven Saints’ Great Golden Pagoda’s defense at any moment and charge in.

When that happened, their operation would be considered a complete failure. They would then have to face the robotic armies’ endless and wild attacks.

“Take action!” The Snake King let out a soft bellow through information currents.

Qiu Dao looked at this scene with great confidence and smiled. “Haha, you will regret this.”

…

Right when the Qiu Dao Alliance’s seven experts engaged in a great battle in the sky…

Fang Xingjian continued to head down, moving through spatial gaps. He headed for the depths of the underground base where the Divine Emperor was located.

‘It’s really his true form!

‘I’ve finally found you.’

Originally, if Fang Xingjian were to search for the Divine Emperor, it would be hard for him to ascertain the Divine Emperor’s actual location even with his Sudden Inspiration as the latter had uploaded a portion of his consciousness onto the network.

Fang Xingjian’s illusory arts would only be effective if he was able to locate the Divine Emperor’s true form. Otherwise, it would be meaningless if he ended up only deceiving the consciousness on a few servers.

The fact that Fang Xingjian could now locate the Divine Emperor’s actual form had a great impact on Fang Xingjian.

Almost at the instant Fang Xingjian darted through space and drilled down over ten kilometers underground, he appeared abruptly before the Divine Emperor.

“Hmmm? You’re that newcomer?” The Divine Emperor looked at Fang Xingjian who had suddenly appeared. He did not appear to be anxious, merely smiling as he said, “Do you think that you’ll be able to defeat me just because you’ve appeared before me?”

Simultaneously, four silhouettes suddenly appeared with a flash. They arrived at the front, back, left, and right of Fang Xingjian, surrounding him.

These four people were all exceptionally beautiful ladies. One was dressed in acheongsam 1 while another wore a bikini. The other two had on a sailor suit 2 and a miko uniform 3 . They were unlike humans both in terms of their figures as well as their exquisite facial features. It was as if they had walked out from a painting.

However, the eyes of these four beautiful young ladies were extremely cold like there were no emotions in them.

Fang Xingjian could sense that these four beautiful young ladies were not human, but their bodies contained surging powers that could almost be comparable to those of a tier two Divine level expert. It was as if there was some kind of advanced energy engine in them.

These should be the Divine Emperor’s personal guards that the Snake King and the others had mentioned—the cyborg army.

“Himeko, Saeko, the two of you can step down,” the Divine Emperor said as he waved his hand. Then he smiled at Fang Xingjian and asked, “How’s my maid army? I’ve produced all the beautiful young ladies that can be found in legends, myths, animations, games, movies, dramas, and books in the form of cyborgs.

“How is it? Aren’t they very beautiful?”
