Chapter 2417 Conning Everyone?
Dead End questioned Mo Tian in a grave tone, causing every gaze to appear excited. So rejoiced, while so beca worried. However, the mont Mo Tian opened his mouth, they couldn't help but all listen attentively.
"I think I can, but the effort is not worth the risk of offending you and having you haunt to death."
Davis's lips couldn't help but twitch as he almost broke out into a fit of laughter. However, everyone couldn't help but beco shocked as they perceived it as Mo Tian acknowledging the threat that Dead End was.
Void Terror was especially shaken as his fingers couldn't stay still. He didn't dare think of trying to reclaim his prey after he saw Dead End be able to use a Death-Attributed Armant that was compared to cursed objects because it couldn't be easily controlled or used.
However, Dead End was precisely able to do that, causing him to feel imnse disbelief.
Moreover, even Mo Tian tried to stay clear of him. It was clear from how he worded his sentence.
The mont he was about to die was enough for Void Terror to stay clear of Dead End, much less these two reasons.
"We're retreating." He promptly commanded his three surviving subordinates using soul transmission. As for the other two of the six, they died of Klein Zyrus's attacks when they chased and tried to exhaust him.
On the other hand, Erin Goldsun and the others were stupefied.
Just where had this Dead End co from? Had he been just observing them this whole ti!? They couldn't help but feel a frigid chill seep through their spines, but it also struck a nerve in their egos, making them unwittingly think that Dead End could've killed them anyti he wanted.
After all, their heads were on the assassination list as well since the assassination powers harassed them. However, Dead End didn't even see them eye to eye to be taken as a target. They were lesser than that, not even existing in his eyes.
"What are you waiting for!? Quick, leave!"
Abruptly, Mo Tian's voice fell on all their heads, causing them to co out of their reveries before they instantly left the island in a hurry, not wanting to stay behind even for a mont. The wind cultivator even hurriedly hid the Imagery Stone and ran into the enclosure of their flying boat.
Only Dead End and Mo Tian were left on the island, staring at each other, but after so ti, they both smirked at each other, seeing themselves in their ocular vision.
'Now then, with that wind cultivator being smart about it and recording this scene, it successfully created an alibi for the both of us, that we're two different existences. All that's left is to plunder Klein Zyrus now and kill him at the last mont so that the Zyrus Family isn't alerted two days earlier...'
Davis planned as he cracked a knuckle with his finger, an excited smile hanging on his face as he finally obtained the required karmic sin for his immortal tribulation.
"Why are you acting like this?"
Abruptly, a curious voice of a girl resounded from behind, causing him to blink before he turned to look at the Void Dust Tree.
However, there was a thirteen-year-old, black-robed girl seated on top of a branch as she dangled her legs. Her features were covered by a spatial blur, leaving him unable to see her entire countenance, but he could see her starry-violet eyes and the vague expression on her face.
He inwardly nodded, understanding that he didn't hallucinate when he heard a vague cry when he ripped the fruit from the tree. The scary thing was that she was manifesting herself as a tree spirit, which shouldn't be possible for a mortal tree, even if it were not a fleshly body.
As expected of a heavenly resource-producing entity. Similar to the Elental Bloodsucking Vine Emperor, which had the nectar as a heavenly resource, he couldn't even put them in a category.
However, he didn't understand. Wasn't lifeforms supposed to die when the realm closes? If that was true, then he guessed that this secret realm solely operates for this tree through so kind of natural miracle or artificial creation of a powerful immortal.
It was the sole lifeform that could survive inside this secret realm.
Davis couldn't help but display a wry smile as his lips moved, "What do you an?"
"Ah~ Don't play dumb with . I know both of you are the sa, but I can't understand why you would portray yourself to be two people at the sa ti."
Davis blinked. Considering that this tree was here alone for who knows how many years, he didn't doubt that she would fail to understand.
"I an, I have seen nurous people fight before as they try to claim my fruit or try to burn in a fit of anger if they fail to. However, you're the most powerful person I've seen in my realm, and yet, why is there a need for you to disguise yourself?"
The girl curiously asked as she transford into a glittering spark of dust and appeared before Davis, her starry-violet eyes gazing at him with interest.
Her lodious voice sounded with no ill intent, causing Davis to be receptive as much as possible since he didn't want to offend this tree girl with so unknown powers that could ruin his plans.
"Because you haven't seen the outside world where it is even more scary and ruthless. I won't have a problem here, but outside, you and I would die within an instant. So it is better to hide one's identity. Even better, hide one's hidden identity with another identity."
"Hey, hey..." The black-robed girl pouted, "I'll break through to the Immortal Stage in a few hundred centuries. At that ti, let's see who's more powerful than . Hmph~"
Davis narrowed his eyes. Her words ant as though she would be able to break out of this secret realm once she beca an immortal tree.
"If you don't mind asking, how long have you been here?"
