Chapter 3649: The Lion King Won’t Be Able to Return

Lin Moyu wasn’t surprised by the Soul Heart King’s sudden appearance.

He was still carrying the treasure mountain fragment given by the Soul Heart King. Even though he had used formations to conceal his form and aura, he still couldn’t hide from the Soul Heart King.

In fact, Lin Moyu hadn’t intended to hide. He was hoping the Soul Heart King would come.

With a thought, Lin Moyu suddenly expanded the formation around him, including the Soul Heart King within it.

Inside the formation, Lin Moyu sat on Little Python’s head, brewing tea.

The Soul Heart King smiled and said: “Lin friend is in such a good mood, not forgetting to have a cup of tea while watching the show.”

Lin Moyu said: “Soul Heart friend, come try Lin’s tea.”

The Soul Heart King sat down unceremoniously opposite Lin Moyu. As he sat, Little Python clearly trembled once, then didn’t dare to move at all.

Lin Moyu thought, and a stream of water flew out from the teapot, landing in the teacup in front of the Soul Heart King.

The water stream was silver with hints of gold. There was no tea fragrance, but there was another kind of strange aroma. The Soul Heart King vaguely sensed that this tea was not ordinary.

The Soul Heart King tried a sip and his eyes suddenly brightened: “Lin friend, this tea is extraordinary.”

Lin Moyu smiled and said: “It can’t compare to the Dao Void Tea.”

But the Soul Heart King didn’t think so: “No, no, no, the two teas each have their merits. This tea is greatly beneficial for cultivation. If one could drink it for a long time, even I could advance another step, and there are no side effects.”

“Moreover, this tea can clear the mind and clarify thoughts. With just that one sip just now, I feel I’ve gained some insight into some problems that have troubled me for many years.”

Lin Moyu said: “When today’s affairs are over, Lin will send some of this tea to Soul Heart friend.”

The Soul Heart King seemed very pleased. “This king will accept it without being polite.”

He felt this was truly a good thing, so naturally he wouldn’t be courteous.

It was indeed a good thing. The tea leaves Lin Moyu used were World Tree leaves, and the water was Gold and Silver Tree sap. Lin Moyu had tried brewing tea with them. For someone like the Soul Heart King who had never drunk Gold and Silver Tree sap before, it indeed had quite an effect.

The addition of World Tree leaves seemed to have increased the effects of the Gold and Silver Tree even more.

Clearly, there were some secrets in the World Tree that even he himself didn’t know about, worth exploring well.

The reason Lin Moyu brought out the Gold and Silver Tree sap and World Tree leaves was actually for another purpose – to tempt the Soul Heart King.

This was his bargaining chip, a bargaining chip to get the Soul Heart King to take action.

The Soul Heart King looked at the Giant-Faced Lion King and Grass Soul King who were still fighting fiercely, then looked at the Soul Refining Furnace that had already been revealed: “When the Soul Refining Furnace appeared before, this king had suspicions about whether someone was deliberately using the Soul Refining Furnace.”

“So at that time, this king didn’t take action. Coincidentally, I met Lin friend then, and this king had thought about whether the Soul Refining Furnace might be Lin friend’s possession. Now it seems, it truly is so.”

Lin Moyu didn’t conceal it either: “Lin obtained this furnace by chance, and only recently learned that this furnace is extraordinary. Lin also knows that this furnace isn’t very useful in the Void Realm. Too many people covet it, so I might as well use it as bait.”

The Soul Heart King said: “In that case, does Lin friend have a grudge against the Lion King?”

The Soul Heart King was very clever. He had already guessed Lin Moyu’s intentions.

Using the Soul Refining Furnace as bait, then utilizing the existing enmity between the Giant-Faced Lion King and the Grass Soul King to make them fight to the death.

This method was very simple, not even really a scheme, but it was direct and effective.

Lin Moyu nodded: “Indeed, I have some grievances with the Lion King. I didn’t hold much of a grudge, but the Lion King has been harboring resentment and has been sending people to find me.”

“Lin wanted to take this opportunity to settle the karma between me and the Lion King, but unfortunately, the two of them don’t seem to be fighting hard enough.”

He had already secretly used the World-Burning Fire, making the Grass Soul King mistakenly believe that the Giant-Faced Lion King wanted to fight to the death with him, but both sides were still holding back.

The Soul Heart King said: “Lin friend may not fully understand the structure of our Void Realm yet. There are indeed constant conflicts between our various small soul domains, but these conflicts are complex and intertwined, like the Great Dao powers, a tangled mess.”

“The two of them can fight to the death for the Soul Refining Furnace now, but later they might also join hands against external enemies. They have common enemies and common allies, so even if they fight fiercely, they won’t really fight to the death.”

Lin Moyu looked at the Soul Heart King, leisurely drinking his tea: “Then is Soul Heart friend their enemy or ally?”

The Soul Heart King said: “Neither enemy nor ally. This king once heard a saying from your human race: ’Be close to distant states and distant from close states!’”

Lin Moyu immediately understood. The Soul Heart King’s small soul domain bordered both of their small soul domains, and there was much friction between them.

But the Soul Heart King was more restrained and hadn’t become enemies with them, yet they couldn’t be called friends either.

Lin Moyu said: “Soul Heart friend has seen the current situation. I wonder if you could lend a hand?”

The Soul Heart King chuckled: “Why not?”

Behind him, the illusory image of a treasure mountain slowly appeared, followed by invisible soul waves spreading outward.

The Soul Heart King did this very discreetly. Even Lin Moyu only vaguely felt something.

The Giant-Faced Lion King and Grass Soul King, who were in the midst of fierce battle, didn’t feel anything at all…

Just a few breaths after the Soul Heart King took action, the battle situation between the Giant-Faced Lion King and the Grass Soul King rapidly changed.

Previously, the two had been holding back, but now they became completely unrestrained. The two began to fight with all their might, as if intending to kill each other.

Lin Moyu smiled and said: “Soul Heart friend has good techniques.”

The Soul Heart King smiled and said: “It’s just stirring up the subconscious, nothing worth mentioning. If they didn’t have a grudge to begin with, and hadn’t been provoked by Lin friend, with the Soul Refining Furnace as bait, these little tricks of mine wouldn’t have worked.”

Lin Moyu knew he was telling the truth. This kind of trick to stir up the subconscious required many special conditions.

And what he had done before was to create those special conditions for the Soul Heart King.

The reason why the Soul Heart King was so willing to help him actually had another very important reason – neither the Giant-Faced Lion King nor the Grass Soul King were on good terms with him.

The phrase “Be close to distant states and distant from close states” had already made it very clear.

So eliminating these two was also a very ideal outcome for the Soul Heart King.

Lin Moyu smiled and said: “In Soul Heart friend’s view, which of them will emerge victorious?”

The Soul Heart King smiled: “This is the Grass Soul King’s small soul domain.”

Lin Moyu understood the Soul Heart King’s meaning. Here, the Giant-Faced Lion King would most likely not be able to defeat the Grass Soul King.

Lin Moyu suddenly looked into the distance. The skeleton god generals he had placed far away saw soul flames.

Void beasts from other small soul domains were coming. With the void beasts arriving, those kings would probably come too.

If they came to interfere, it would be difficult for the Grass Soul King and Giant-Faced Lion King to fight to the death.

Lin Moyu looked at the Soul Heart King: “Soul Heart friend, I have to trouble you again.”

The Soul Heart King knew what Lin Moyu meant. “A small matter. This king will go and block them. The Lion King will probably retreat soon, and the Grass Soul King may not necessarily pursue.”

The implication was that once the Giant-Faced Lion King escaped, if Lin Moyu wanted to kill him, he would have to do it himself.

Lin Moyu smiled and said: “The Lion King won’t be able to return.”

The Soul Heart King chuckled, “Then this king wishes Lin friend all the best.”

His figure slowly disappeared, silently heading towards the distance to block those approaching void beasts.

As for what method he would use, that wasn’t Lin Moyu’s concern.

The Grass Soul King’s Soul-Devouring Tree evolved into its true form, becoming ten thousand meters tall. Its branches shook, shooting out endless light.

The light was like swords, destroying the sea of fire. The Giant-Faced Lion King kept roaring and retreating.
