Chapter 768: The Hero Arrives

Chapter 768: The Hero Arrives

The realm crumbled, on and on. The most far-flung of the villages met the edge of the crumbling space, and its bubble dissipated. The cultivators within flew away as fast as they could, picking up those who couldnt fly and carrying them along with them. They stared up at Hui with horror and fear, shock and disbelief. One or two flew toward him, drawing weapons they hadnt touched in some time, but when they met the cold void, they flinched back and retreated instead.

Hui watched them, quietly glad they could flee. Though even if they cant, this is a loop. Everything will be returned. What doesnt, will smoothly enter my garbage realm and be recycled, safely secured nonetheless.

And if it isnt, if we win, if the garbage realm fails, then

Well, Im not the Landlord of the Underworld for nothing.

Stop panicking, everyone! Let it cook, okay? I promise I have a plan!

On the screen, a small golden form appeared before Zhubi. The Golden Immortal reached out, grabbing at Zhubi.

Here he is! Lets go!

The Golden Immortals hand struck the barrier Hui had given Zhubi. Retreated into his shell, Zhubi regarded the Golden Immortal with black eyes, glinting faintly from the shadows of his shell.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

Golden Immortal! Coward. Face me! Hui shouted.

The Golden Immortal whipped around. He vanished, reappearing in front of Bai Xue. Another barrier blocked his path.

A coward like you couldnt possibly find it in your heart to face me alone! Hui called.

He vanished again. This time, he appeared in front of Li Xiang, in sword form. Rather than trying to attack, he simply stared, taken aback. A sword?

Ha! I knew youd never be able to attack me! Hui crowed.

Im trying to attack you! Youre the one who smeared your aura all over them! the Golden Immortal snarled, jabbing his finger at Li Xiang.

Didnt even do it the fun way, Bai Xue grumbled.

Cowardly excuses from a coward! Hui shouted.

The Golden Immortals lips pressed together so hard they turned white. He vanished yet again. This time, he reappeared in front of Hui.

Hui jolted to a stop. He laughed awkwardly and scratched the back of his head. Ah! Senior! Funny finding you here!

Its true. We wont remember the plan if he eradicates you, the Vermillion Bird Hui agreed.

With a gesture, the white-robed Hui called the primordial energy to him. He closed his eyes, breathing slowly, and settled into place. The power of time swirled around him, merging out of the ferocious primordial energy.

After so long caught in a loop, even the essence of this world has become tainted with the power of time. This is my ultimate technique, Vermillion Bird Hui declared.

Is it? the Golden Immortal asked.

Hui tilted his head. Ah, well, thats what the other me would probably say, if he wasnt busy. Right, and after that, something like, You dared treat time as your toy. Did you never fear someone would take it from you? Though I cant be sure. Hes busy, and hes not talking to me.

The Golden Immortal squinted at him. Are you okay?

Im pretty stressed right now, actually, Senior. Many thanks for asking, this small cultivator doesnt deserve Seniors care, Hui said, nodding.

The Golden Immortals eye twitched. Maybe I should try again with a different person from your world.

If you could, you already would have, Hui said smugly. He looked down on the Golden Immortal and clicked his tongue, shaking his head a little. Ah, how pitiful, to have to rely on a frustrating little bug like me.

Nose wrinkled in disgust, the Golden Immortal raised his hand again.

Wait, wait, Senior! Hes almost done. Arent you curious what weve been working so hard on? Hui asked.

The Golden Immortal lowered his hand. I suppose I am curious, yes.

Or rather, could it be? The Golden Immortal is actually injured and scared, and doesnt want to admit that he cant stop us, Hui whispered, looking at the Golden Immortal from the corner of his eye.

The Golden Immortal lashed out. His blow deflected off a barrier as Hui smoothly activated a talisman. A grin spread over Huis face. Ha, I thought so. We do have you on the back foot. More than youd like to admit.

Silence this nonsense! If youre going to be so obnoxious, Ill end this now, and prove you wrong! The Golden Immortal abandoned the Hui before him and hurtled directly at the one floating in the void.

Behind him, the Vermillion Bird Hui smiled a small smile. He turned, watching as the Golden Immortal closed the gap.

As he flew, the Golden Immortals stomach sunk. A sense of impending danger gripped him, such as he hadnt felt in years. He accelerated, but too late.

The white-robed Hui opened his eyes. A wave of white light washed over the realm, and time turned.
