473 A Heartfelt Voice Reappears
“It’s none of his business, but I’m going to give him a scroll,” Caique said with confidence.
Although the previous exchange had only lasted less than a minute, everyone could tell what the situation was like.
It was obvious that Ling Yi had the upper hand. One could even say that he was suppressing his opponent!
Therefore, standing next to this teenager at this moment, Caique was more confident than ever.
Until now.
Only then did the experts and players in the live broadcast room understand Caique’s and Xuan Zhentian’s visitation purpose.
[I see. Godking Caique wanted to give a scroll to 01 but he couldn’t find his stash… So did the Cosmic God take them?]
[The Cosmic God wouldn’t do such a thing, right?]
[It’s a pity that the Cosmic God is in a state of anger. His godly right and thousand-year divine artifacts are useless. Otherwise, the battle would have been much more exciting.]
[…]
Knowing the other party’s intentions, Yujue frowned.
Because he was a giant, everyone could see his every move very clearly.
“I don’t know.” He said.
As he spoke, his gray eyes scanned the faces of the three men in front of him and finally stopped on Ling Yi’s face.
The light in his gray eyes flickered, but no emotion could be seen.
“You don’t know?”
Caique and Xuan Zhentian looked at each other. They couldn’t tell if the cyclops was lying or if they had misunderstood him.
If the Cosmic God was indeed lying, then it was fine, but the latter would be embarrassing.
Thinking of this, Caique’s expression relaxed a little. “However, based on what I know, the ones who stole my scrolls were the Godking’s guardsmen under your command.”
Hearing this, Yujue clapped his hands and ten figures flew over.
These people were all wearing loose black robes and ghost masks, so their figures and faces could not be seen clearly.
“Which one of you stole their scrolls?”
Yujue lowered his eyes and coldly scanned the ten people.
None of them answered.
In the middle of this stalemate, Yunji flew over and whispered to Ling Yi, “Why don’t you just use the bell?”
“Ah, yes.”
Ling Yi nodded. He took out the Bell of Truth from his bag and opened it while saying to everyone, “I’ll activate the inner voice.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yujue’s expression changed.
In the next second, a notification that made his expression even uglier suddenly appeared.
[Every scroll is equivalent to a temporary skill. As long as you collect enough scrolls, it is equivalent to having countless skills. In order to realize this theory, Yujue ordered his Godking guardsmen to search for scrolls everywhere.]
[In addition to the joint scroll warehouse, the scroll warehouse of their old enemy, the Court of Order has also been robbed by them.]
“What? So, you really did it?”
Caique looked at the giant in front of him with a little surprise, as if he did not expect the giant to lie so blatantly.
“Then why didn’t you use them during the battle just now?” Xuan Zhentian was puzzled.
[Because he did not expect anyone to dare to come and find trouble with him. The scrolls are still in the treasure room and are currently not on him.]
“I see.”
Caique nodded and looked at Yujue coldly, “Now that the truth is out, please return them!”
If Ling Yi and Xuan Zhentian were not beside him, his words would not have been so powerful.
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene gradually quieted down.
Everyone was waiting for Yujue’s reply, but the latter stood there with a light in his eyes as if he was thinking.
[Yujue thought to himself that if 01 wasn’t around, he could use his strength to chase Caique away. He believed that Caique wouldn’t fight to the death with him for the scrolls.]
[The only thing that is stopping him right now was 01. This newcomer is so strong that he isn’t confident that he can defeat him, so he’s in a dilemma.]
The moment the voice messages were sent out, the scene became even quieter.
After a few breaths, Yujue snorted and said, “Alright, I’ll return the scrolls to you.”
[He really wanted 01 to shut off this “inner voice”, but he knew very well what the outcome would be if the three of them were to fight.]
Yujue lowered his head and swept his gaze over the ten people below him. He let out an imperceptible snort.
The next second–
Without any warning, he reached out with his giant hand, and a dark green cloud of fire condensed in his palm! The fire cloud directly pressed down on the ten Godking guardsmen below. It seemed like he was going to kill ten of them.
At this moment, a black figure flashed past and rushed straight into the fire cloud.
BANG!
The giant hand with the cloud of fire slapped the ground, sending green flames in all directions.
As the earth trembled, Caique and his companion reacted. “What are you doing?” They asked with a frown.
“Hmph, I’m just dealing with some incompetent subordinates. Are you going to care about this too?”
[As long as Yujue kills the guards, no one will know how many scrolls they have stolen.]
[Yujue only needs to give them some and they will be sent away.]
Caique’s face turned even colder. He stared at Yujue with his slightly aged eyes and his frown deepened, “Old man Yu, you’ve changed. If it was the old you, you wouldn’t have done this at all.”
He still remembered that warm youth who had passed through the ninth level of the Supreme Heavenly Rankings fifty years ago. Although many people knew that it was only his appearance, in their hearts, they knew that was the true Yujue.
He was the number one expert who treated others gently and had his own pride.
“Hmph,” Yujue snorted and didn’t pay any attention to him. Instead, he turned his eyes to the ten people who had been saved by Lady Sparrow.
His cold eyes stared at her as if she would launch a lightning-fast attack at any moment!
“What are you doing?” He asked the black-robed woman.
Under everyone’s gaze, Lady Sparrow clenched her fists and said in a deep voice, “These are my clansmen.”
“So what?”
“You said that as long as I accept the experiment, you will protect them.” Lady Sparrow’s body glowed with a faint bronze light as if she had entered her battle state.
“You’ve become more daring.” The 300-meter-tall Yujue looked down at the ant-sized woman on the ground and spoke in an unintelligible voice.
The development of the scene was somewhat beyond everyone’s expectations. Just as many people were still confused, the voice message appeared once more.
[As the clan leader of the Dark Clan, Lady Sparrow has the duty to protect every member of her clan.]
[Now that Yujue is on the weaker side, she thinks that she can take the opportunity to lead her people out of this place.]
“Ha? You want to escape? Where do you think you can escape to in this world?”
[The Pangu Supercontinent is very safe. Yujue is very afraid of 01.]
Yujue was about to burst out laughing, but his body froze when he saw the message.
When he thought about how this message would spread to all parts of the universe sooner or later, he quickly turned his gray eye toward Ling Yi.
“You really think I can’t beat you?”
[Yujue’s anger had gotten to his head, but after calming down, he realized that he still had many skills that he had not used. In a real battle, his strength would not be limited to this.]
[Of course, he doesn’t know. 01 was worried that he might accidentally kill him, so he was still calculating the damage in his mind when he attacked during the battle before. He didn’t use his full strength at all.]
Yujue, who had been quite happy when he saw the first message, was completely dumbfounded when he saw the second one.
He looked at the young man quietly, not moving at all like a giant stone statue.
All the experts turned their heads and stared at Ling Yi with shock on their faces.
