Chapter 1310 - 262: Once and for All

"Ha..."

Wen Yu heard and simply raised an eyebrow but said nothing.

I think this word can truly be universal... But what it’s really about can’t be explained by a simple "I think".

What if it’s not like "I think"? Then it’s a disaster.

In fact, what Lin Haifeng said, Wen Yu also had doubts about, doubting that Earth’s consciousness couldn’t act against him—yet, doubts are doubts, Wen Yu couldn’t afford to gamble on it, and he certainly wouldn’t.

If the personnel dispatched are weak, they couldn’t break through the divine barriers set up at the origin of the Earth’s nucleus—those are barriers the Demigod spent vast resources setting up, numerous Sea Clans, Insect Tribes, Insect King Skye, Sea King’s own body, Demigod’s lackeys, the Demigod itself, and maybe even Tang Haofei.

They will surely guard the origin of the Earth’s nucleus tightly. Besides themselves and their soul pets, no one in this world can break through such a level of defense.

And personally taking action or dispatching soul pets?

Wouldn’t that be a joke...

Wen Yu’s assets have long surpassed the phase of impulsive risks, living or dying by fate’s will—by merely growing steadily, he will continue to get stronger. In this situation, does Wen Yu still need to gamble on a fifty-fifty chance of life or death?

Win the gamble, Earth is taken down—what’s the use? Apart from removing the Demigod, resolving the Earth’s consciousness trouble, everything else remains the same. Anyway, the Demigod can’t enter the tiered battle ground, even if it makes a mess, it’d be trivial.

And lose the gamble... at the very least, one of his soul pets would fall into a dire situation—before Level 12’s power, Wen Yu isn’t confident he can use Soul Realm space to recall soul pets in time.

Risk exceeding return, obviously an uneven bet...

If you still want to gamble in this situation... isn’t that madness?

Seeing Wen Yu’s nonchalant expression, Lin Haifeng immediately understood what Wen Yu was thinking.

So, he spoke straightforwardly.

"If I can help you measure whether Earth’s consciousness can act against you, will you strike?"

"If Earth’s consciousness can’t act against me, I will definitely make a move against it!"

Without a second thought, Wen Yu confirmed his stance.

This point has no room for reconciliation!

With Dominator absent, Earth’s consciousness unable to act directly, aside from Treasure Land Protectors, there’s no one in this world that can stop him, and generally, Treasure Land Protectors don’t intervene in local Earth power struggles.

In that case, Wen Yu would be the supreme being!

Do you Demigods want to turn Earth into your stronghold? You’re overthinking... Although Earth seems insignificant to Wen Yu, removing the Demigod, Earth’s consciousness, even Tang Haofei, these troubles, Wen Yu would certainly do it.

The consideration is still about the Level Lock issue.

Breaking through Level 8’s lock doesn’t matter to Wen Yu, even Level 9’s lock doesn’t concern him much, but Level 10’s lock must not break! At least, for now, Level 10’s lock must not break!

Because Wen Yu needs time, and Level Locks can provide Wen Yu with more time to strengthen. The best outcome would be Wen Yu mastering a power comparable to a Demon Spirit’s carbon copy when Level 10’s lock breaks; after that, things would be much easier.

And currently, Wen Yu’s strength, compared to any Demon Spirit carbon copy, is significantly lacking...

"Then that’s fine."

Hearing the answer from Wen Yu, Lin Haifeng instantly smiled, his face revealing that chilling expression that startled Wen Yu.

Obviously scheming against someone again.

"Have you heard about the matters on Earth?"

Seeing Lin Haifeng suddenly change the topic, Wen Yu was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

"Are you talking about Tang Haofei’s action?"

The Demigod has spies in the tiered battle ground, Lin Haifeng has them on Earth, and Wen Yu does too. Things that can’t be hidden or well-known facts are impossible to keep from the ears of these three.

"He’s a trouble, his few punches broke 11.21% of the Level Lock, but we aren’t talking about that today. The Demigod or rather the Demigod’s carbon copy has come to the tiered battle ground."

"Now this, I really haven’t heard about."

Wen Yu shook his head to indicate his ignorance of this matter.

"I only got this intel through a special professionist under me. Actually, I set up a trap... and now, the Demigod has taken the bait."

"What trap?"

"A trap that can help you get the answer you want!"

Lin Haifeng said confidently, then he quietly leaned in closer to Wen Yu’s ear, and after a series of sounds, Wen Yu’s mouth slowly gaped open.

After a while, until Lin Haifeng finished speaking, Wen Yu looked at Lin Haifeng with surprise.

"There’s quite a bit of coincidence in this..."

"Anyway, we’ll just try it. Fail with no loss, win, and we can solve the Demigod and Earth’s consciousness problem once and for all!"

Seeing Lin Haifeng’s ambitious demeanor, Wen Yu remained completely silent.

"So, will you help me?"

After a moment of silence, Wen Yu smiled.

"It’s not entirely helping you... It’s also helping myself, so what do I need to do?"

"Very simple, before the plan gets on track, you don’t need to do anything, after that, you’ll need to do this..."

...

With Yanjing’s overall relocation, correspondingly, the former Black Abyss Prison was also moved from Yanjing to the tiered battle ground by Lin Haifeng.

The prison system falls under the administration of the Ministry of Justice’s Administrative Office in Yanjing – precisely, the part managed by Fang Yuqiong after her demotion.

Since over a decade ago, Lin Tianxue has been held by Lin Haifeng in Black Abyss Prison, as if forgotten by the world, apart from a few, most have forgotten the once renowned "Ms. Tianxue" once existed in Yanjing...

Of course, Fang Yuqiong hasn’t forgotten.

The Demigod certainly hasn’t forgotten...

And here is where the Demigod aims to infiltrate Fang Yuqiong as the first breakthrough point.

Actually, regarding the rumor of Lin Haifeng and Fang Yuqiong falling out, the Demigod originally didn’t care much—these tactics have been used many times by Lin Haifeng, and the Demigod too. Such simple and efficient methods have nearly been worn out by these two schemers. Correspondingly, both sides have a series of countermeasures.

Like using it to strategize, for instance...

But unfortunately, in this matter, the Demigod can’t have the final say—in fact, Earth’s consciousness wasn’t wrong, in this situation, the Demigod is completely at a disadvantage; it can only keep Earth’s small niche, unable to fight the Demon Fiend, and its powers will inevitably diverge from those professionists long at the tiered battleground. A year or two may not show much, but over time, this gap will become too wide...
