Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 948: Chapter 451: Chaos Civil War

Li Yelai’s plan was to utilize the chaotic aura on him to contact Jile through certain means, thereby finding the location of the Jile Subsidiary.

Maybe, he could even score a fortune in the Treasure Vault.

The Treasure Vault of the Chaos Faction is indeed very tempting…

And this requires the cooperation of the Ye Boshou.

After all, Li Yelai is still not a Jile Divine Chosen; the three sources of Chaos power are still entangled within his Soul Well.

I wonder if Mr. Shadow feels crowded?

But Li Yelai is not yet considered a Jile Divine Chosen, not only because the Heartless Fruit hasn’t yet eroded him, but also because the mimicry of the Divine Chosen Face hasn’t fully appeared.

In Li Yelai’s consciousness space, the blank mask only shows half of the patterns and lines.

It could be that the powers of the Blood God and Eternal Life are resisting, making Li Yelai’s mimicry slow to develop.

Not being a complete Divine Chosen might make the Jile Sect vigilant. However, the Ye Boshou will cooperate with Li Yelai to dispel this vigilance!

“So you want us to fake an attack on you as a ‘traitor’ about to become a Divine Chosen?” Liu Yun summarized.

Although it seems heartless, this is indeed the approach of the Giant City’s official.

Once comrades are corrupted by Chaos or twisted into Mutants, the thing to do is to bury them.

Let them die as humans, rather than spend the rest of their lives becoming the monster they most hate and despise.

Li Yelai and Cheese once had an agreement that if either one twisted and fell, the other would be the one to bury them.

This is a scene the official strongmen least want to see.

“Correct.” Li Yelai nodded, “We can cause intense disturbances from multiple battlefields to draw the attention of the Jile Sect or the city-states, allowing them to find me and take away this potential Divine Chosen. Cheese and I were just discussing the location for the battle.”

“That’s simple. With the time we’ve spent lurking, we can deduce some of the rough positions of the bases. We can start from these positions without appearing too deliberate.” Liu Yun nodded but quickly frowned: “But under the influence of Heartless Fruit, our negative emotions might be magnified. We might end up pretending too well and really attack you.”

The temptation of the Heartless Fruit is almost pervasive, and various subtle emotional changes can be magnified and twisted.

Not to mention in battle.

The original disguise might turn into genuine hunting.

“Also, you’ve only gathered us, and your comrades of the Fifth Team don’t know your identity and abilities. If they see it halfway, they’ll really think you’ve been twisted. They won’t hold back…” Another Ye Boshou also spoke up.

If drawn by the battle fluctuations and seeing the chaotic aura on Li Yelai, the official strongmen would instinctively act to bury him.

“I know, I have considered that. Knowing too much might appear unnatural.” Li Yelai replied, “With my combination of abilities, as long as I’m not surrounded by you, I can escape… My Mythical Mimicry is Kunpeng. With the blessing of the Shadow Army, even the Overlord would only see my tail lights!”

“You say that, but do you have tail lights?” Ye Boshou subconsciously retorted.

“Maybe I do, but you’d have to ask… eh…” Another Ye Boshou suddenly coughed, interrupting himself.

Upon learning of Li Yelai’s Mythical Mimicry, they all felt reassured.

In mythology, the Kunpeng can rise nine thousand miles.

Even if not that exaggerated, its speed is unmatched by ordinary people. This indeed ensures his safety.

“You just need to restrain them, don’t pursue aggressively. When you see the combat power of the Jile Sect, retreat cautiously. Don’t get stuck in the battleground.”

“But this plan still carries risk. Your combat power might be strong, but the Jile Sect isn’t trivial either. Their vast reserves of Chaos Knowledge and Taboo Items might have ways to counter you.” Liu Yun reminded after thinking, “Especially some Chaos Rituals. If they’re pushed too far, their self-sacrifice would be a problem too.”

“Correct, who knows what Chaos Holy Artifacts they might have. My second grandfather said that during the fourth generation Champion’s campaign against the Ember Church, Chaos believers activated a Chaos Holy Artifact and summoned an incarnation of the Chaos Demon.” A Ye Boshou spoke up, revealing that his elder was once a member of Champion Team One.

“Not to mention the strong Taboo Items they might have. There were previously cases where subjugation teams were attacked by meteors.”

“Yes, I have considered this.” Li Yelai nodded, “I also have the Lucky Wheel. If the situation goes awry, I can summon a Catastrophe….”

“However, that’s still the last resort. Catastrophes are too uncontrollable. If they destroy the entire Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, it would be trouble.”

“If the plan succeeds, we might be able to completely eliminate the Heartless Fruit. You all… wouldn’t be trapped in Ten Thousand Dragon Lake either.”

“So, this is a mission that must be completed.” Li Yelai’s tone was calm, yet there was an undeniable determination.

With the plan confirmed, the Ye Boshou and Li Yelai began to research the details.

….

While Li Yelai was plotting the Heartless Fruit and Jile Sect,

Various factions also began to move.

The Jile Subsidiary closest to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake encountered a sudden attack from the Blood God Faction.

Situated in the mountains of Qian Province, they had established strong forts and defenses on various peaks.
