Chapter 2753 - 56: The Gate of Wonders_3

But he still won’t give up.

Life is nothing but... moving forward.

He knows he can’t choose to wait. Lu Qilang, She Guyu, Shujia Lan, these Heavenly favorites from the Monster Realm can wait for possibly a chance, wait for fate’s favor, but he, hidden in the Mirror World, cannot.

Because he is not of this realm, and the Heavenly Will of this realm treats him unjustly.

If he leaves everything to luck, then what he faces is a certain death trap.

Yet he still cannot act on his own, for being feared by Heavenly Will, it may trigger a more intense response.

So he let Chai Asi come out first, to stir the muddy waters and break this stalemate. He calmly observes the situation within the Mirror World, guessing the psychology of each Demon King, judging their possible choices. Let Chai Asi wear the tiger’s skin, and bluff, to prevent this sudden battle from happening, or at least not around here.

Several Demon Kings, after being scolded by Chai Asi, remained silent.

And Chai Asi’s relaxed stance in fixing the door added a layer of mystery, providing endless room for imagination.

Even Pig Dali, backed by Taiping Dao, began to reassess this newcomer from the flower streets.

Shujia Lan first showed signs of retreat.

If Taiping Dao is a massive underground organization, backed by Black Lotus Temple, he has a long-standing entanglement with them and need not hurry. It requires re-investigation and examination of Taiping Dao; how could Lord Buddha descend with an unsure Rage fire? Also, the background of this dog demon needs to be checked thoroughly; it can’t just be bravery, right?

"I Buddha is merciful! Destroying others’ homes is indeed not right. Lord Lu searches for the culprit, so I will not interfere." He clasped his hands in a gesture of salute and then looked fiercely at Pig Dali: "Lord Buddha will let you off today, but you better know, you can’t escape. Offend my Black Lotus Temple, and there will be nowhere for you in The Heavens or the earth."

Pig Dali tilted his head slightly, raising his hands confidently in surrender: "This Lord Buddha, it seems I haven’t escaped."

Shujia Lan pretended not to hear, packed up the Black Lotus ceremonial altar, and leaped into the boundless night sky.

Lu Qilang glanced at She Guyu, slightly tilting the sword tip outward, the meaning clear — giving you a chance to escape, grasp it well.

She Guyu’s gaze was cold, wielded the Eight Slash Saber together, and was about to step into the shadows.

As the imminent chaotic battle seemed to dissipate, suddenly—

Clang~!

A bell rang.

Arousing all of Mo Yun City!

At this moment, no matter where they were or what they were doing, all conscious demons within Mo Yun City instinctively or unconsciously stepped out of their rooms, looking up to the sky.

Across the night sky of Mo Yun City, a bizarre spectacle unfolded.

Under the blood moon, boundless moonlight gathered.

That moonlight, tinged with a pale red, condensed into a magnificent light and shadow, forming a great bell in the high sky. At the top, it was suspended like the Sun and Moon, while the bell’s body was engraved with birds and beasts.

Its sound was grand, traversing through long ages and vast lands.

Awakening the bodies of those who heard it, while washing their Spirit.

Chai Asi, in his own courtyard, stared blankly, looking up at the sky.

A more intriguing scene was painted this night —

Under the bell’s mouth appeared the shadow of a secret room.

This secret room was square-shaped and predominantly silver-white. One wall was a large door with a metallic silver-white sheen. On the central seam of the door, there were a total of three inverted bells, one of which had already lit up, the radiant shine like water. It seemed once all three bells lit, it would be time for the door to open.

The other three walls of the secret room were embedded with uniformly sized movable metal blocks, adorned with intricate and ornate patterns. The flickering light and shadow made them difficult to see clearly.

Inside the room were two busy figures, moving back and forth, continually shifting the patterns.

One wore a black robe, with a black mask covering their face.

One had silver hair and ink-black pupils, with silver wings spread out behind... the Yu Xin of Mo Yun City’s three talents!

These two were busy while softly communicating, whispering to each other.

Yu Xin’s hands worked nonstop, suddenly letting out a low chuckle.

"What’s so funny?" asked the figure enveloped in the robe, in a coarse voice.

"I laugh at Zhu Zheng being foolish, Lu Qilang lacking wisdom, Shujia Lan being brainless. Yuan Mengji and Ken Xihua are not worth mentioning, and She Guyu is a dog without a home!"

Yu Xin’s lowered voice contained laughter: "Who would have thought the Shenxiao Secret Cache would open tonight? This Plum Blossom Countermeasure of yours is truly brilliant! It made me inadvertently leak the information to all parties, ensuring when daylight breaks, the mechanisms outside the city activate, those fools will surely follow the one named Lu. Ten or more places to decipher and hide treasures, won’t it dazzle their senses? After they finish competing, we’ll be done here too!"
