Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Demon Lord: ”???????”

Buddha: ”???????”

Wa Huang: ”???????”

The sudden appearance of the Yin Celestial Son’s projection startled the Demon Lord, Buddha, and Wa Huang.

Especially Wa Huang, upon seeing the Yin Celestial Son’s projection, her face immediately flushed red. It was hard to tell whether from embarrassment or anger.

After all, not long ago, the Yin Celestial Son had spread rumors, claiming Wa Huang was going to become his Taoist partner in a joint effort against the Demon Lord and Buddha.

A woman’s reputation is of utmost importance, particularly one as noble as Wa Huang. How could she allow the Yin Celestial Son to smear it?

”Yin Celestial Son, you have some nerve coming to our Void,” Wa Huang cursed, pointing at the projection of the Yin Celestial Son.

The Yin Celestial Son was a shrewd man, fully aware of the source of Wa Huang’s anger.

Logically, he should have retreated at this point.

However, the Yin Celestial Son chose to do the opposite.

During such times, the Yin Celestial Son insisted on provoking Wa Huang.

To anger Wa Huang, to make her furious, to make her lose her reason.

Only then would she make a wrong judgment.

”Wa Huang, you shouldn’t be ungrateful!”

”Regardless of what I said, I indeed helped you that day!”

”Moreover, we are a perfect match, made in heaven.”

”You say, in the heavens plus the Void, there’s only us few Tier Ones. If you don’t become my Taoist partner, who else can you partner with?”

Pointing at Buddha, Yin Celestial Son added, ”Surely, you don’t want to pair with this bald monk?”

Before Wa Huang could respond, he pointed at the Demon Lord: ”Or, become a partner with this idiot.”

At this moment, the Yin Celestial Son was demonstrating how one sentence could offend three people.

Wa Huang, humiliated by the Yin Celestial Son, couldn’t endure it: ”Yin Celestial Son, it’s intolerable, intolerable! You repeatedly insult me. I’ll kill you!”

The Yin Celestial Son shrugged, spreading his hands like a bear cub, feigning helplessness: ”If you want to kill, then kill?”

”Now I’m just a projection, destroy it, and I’ll immediately project another one.”

”If you have the guts, come to the heavens and kill my true form?”

”Mind you, even if you can come, you won’t leave. You’ll stay as my captive bride.”

”Ah!”

”Yin Celestial Son, you shameless scoundrel!” Wa Huang roared in anger and rushed at the Yin Celestial Son’s projection.

Knowing it’s only a projection, Wa Huang still charged forward, intending to tear his mouth apart.

Buddha quickly restrained the furious Wa Huang, soothingly said: ”Wa Huang, don’t be angry, don’t be angry.”

”He’s clearly provoking you, after your anger, who knows what manipulative trick he has in store?”

”Your anger plays right into his hands. Whatever he says, as long as you don’t get angry, his tricks are useless.”

Compared to others, Buddha’s emotions were much more stable.

Yin Celestial Son’s derisive term for Buddha only caused a slight ripple in his emotions, quickly restrained.

However, as soon as Buddha calmed Wa Huang, trouble brewed again with the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord turned to the Yin Celestial Son, asking: ”Yin Celestial Son, who are you calling an idiot?”

”What’s the meaning behind this? Explain to me clearly?”

Yin Celestial Son looked at Demon Lord with disdain, irritably said: ”Idiots are often unwilling to admit they’re idiots. You’re at least a Tier One Powerhouse; I didn’t specify to save your face.”

”Since you insist on knowing, fine, here it is.”

Then, Yin Celestial Son fiercely scrutinized the Demon Lord, asking: ”Didn’t you notice the problem in the vows they made?”

Yin Celestial Son’s words immediately changed Demon Lord’s expression.

Not just the Demon Lord, but Buddha and Wa Huang’s faces changed too.

The vow Buddha made was essentially a play on words.

The Demon Lord, somewhat foolish, hadn’t realized the wordplay hidden in Buddha’s vow.

However, the Demon Lord’s ignorance didn’t mean Yin Celestial Son was unaware.

Yin Celestial Son intended to use this vow as his weapon for sowing discord today.

Buddha knew the Demon Lord lacked intelligence and might get swayed by Yin Celestial Son’s words.

”Demon Lord, don’t listen to his nonsense; he’s sowing discord,” Buddha was the first to counter.

Unfortunately, the Demon Lord ignored Buddha, displaying a look as if refusing to listen, smugly without a care.

”Shut up!”

”Whether I believe it or not, I know my limits!” The Demon Lord pointed at Buddha reproachfully, then turned to Yin Celestial Son: ”Speak!”

”Let’s hear what trick you aim to play.”

The Demon Lord, entangled by the Power of Cause and Effect, feared no one.

Chastising Buddha was like scolding a child.

Buddha: ”?????”

Buddha was so startled by the Demon Lord’s reproach that he shivered.

At this moment, the Demon Lord seemed utterly changed from his previously gullible self.

Buddha grew more puzzled, wondering how the Power of Cause and Effect had made the Demon Lord much smarter.

The Yin Celestial Son came this time specifically to sow discord.

Since the Demon Lord asked him to speak, he naturally would.

”Think carefully, what vows did they just make?” Yin Celestial Son gently reminded.

Some words must not be spoken by the Yin Celestial Son, but must be realized by the Demon Lord himself.

Only by carefully pondering can he sense the subtleties within.

”They swore they’d exert all efforts to find a way to harness the Power of Cause and Effect for me. If they broke this vow, their souls would scatter,” the Demon Lord recalled, narrating without sensing anything amiss.

”Hahaha!”

”Hahahaha!” Witnessing the Demon Lord’s puzzled expression, Yin Celestial Son couldn’t help but laugh: ”I can’t tell if you’re genuinely foolish or playing dumb.”

”They said they’d exert all efforts, but never said they’d definitely find it!”

”Besides, how do you rate their efforts?”

”By then, they could be slacking off daily, and you’d be the one suffering!”

”They deceive you, yet you feel grateful for them.”

After hearing Yin Celestial Son’s analysis, the Demon Lord came to a realization.

Although Yin Celestial Son was indeed sowing discord, he wasn’t fabricating lies but presenting facts, speaking logically.

These truths left the Demon Lord unable to refute.

The truth being, Wa Huang and Buddha might very well intend to scheme against the Demon Lord.

Witnessing the Demon Lord’s twisted expression, Wa Huang and Buddha’s faces grew uglier.

Considering the Demon Lord’s volatile emotions now, no one could guarantee what actions he’d take in a rage.

The Demon Lord and Wa Huang now felt fear!

Those wearing shoes fear those without; Buddha and Wa Huang also feared that the Demon Lord might come to seek destruction with them.
