The fake Fanyu, transford by Qing Ming and He Tu, was originally conversing with two Demon Clan subordinates when they were suddenly slain by Xue Tianyu, leaving no ti to react.
The entire Blood Moon Continent has fallen into the hands of the Demon Clan, and all the Respawn Points within the continent have failed. Upon death, they can only resurrect at the Respawn Point on Ross Island, the closest to Blood Moon Continent.
"What the hell is going on? Xue Tianyu actually dared to kill us and caused us to lose a level!" Qing Ming cursed as soon as he erged from the Respawn Point.
He Tu also frowned, pouting slightly, and said, "From the information revealed by those two Demon Clan subordinates, it seems Xue Tianyu is supposed to be Fanyu’s lackey, ordered to assassinate the Insect clan leader, Zhuó Yèhuá. But just now, Xue Tianyu suddenly attacked us; could he be acting contrary to orders, betraying Fanyu?"
Qing Ming shook his head: "I can’t figure it out either. Let’s quickly report this to Big Brother God of Slaughter; he should be able to deduce sothing."
Saying that, Qing Ming imdiately sent a ssage to Huang Yi.
...
Huang Yi was lying on the vast grassland, chewing on a blade of grass, gazing at the blood-colored sky.
The others were also waiting idly for Qing Ming and He Tu’s return, growing bored.
A gust of wind blew, causing the wild grass to sway like waves, producing a rustling sound, like a lullaby, making one drowsy.
"Qing Ming sent a ssage over!" At this mont, Huang Yi abruptly sat up on the grass, startling his half-asleep teammates.
Huang Yi imdiately shared the ssage, letting everyone know what Qing Ming and He Tu had encountered before.
"Could it be that Xue Tianyu is going to start rebelling against Fanyu?" Young Master Luo speculated, "Within our Blood Clan, Xue Tianyu was once one of the three Grand Sovereigns, holding an extrely high status. He surely wouldn’t be willing to beco Fanyu’s servant. It’s sowhat understandable if he wants to rebel against Fanyu."
"I’m afraid it’s not that simple!" Huang Yi shook his head, looking into the distance at the beehive, "The entire Blood Clan has already defected to the Demon Clan. Xue Tianyu couldn’t possibly betray Fanyu voluntarily, even if he kills Fanyu, he can’t escape the demon’s punishnt. I guess he must have been coerced by soone into assassinating Fanyu, or else he would die on the spot. And the person capable of forcing him to do such a thing is most likely the Insect clan leader, Zhuó Yèhuá."
"But why would Fanyu be foolish enough to give Xue Tianyu a chance to betray him?" The Youth with Middle School Syndro questioned innocently, "If Fanyu had signed a soul contract with Xue Tianyu, even if he wanted to betray, it would be impossible!"
Huang Yi shook his head: "The difference in their strength is too small; they can’t sign a soul contract! If you replace Fanyu with one of the Seven Archdemons, it would certainly work. I guess Fanyu also doesn’t trust Xue Tianyu, which is why he sent Qi Ye and Spectral Ghost, those two subordinates, to monitor Xue Tianyu."
"So what should we do now?" the Overlord asked.
Huang Yi stroked his chin, thought for a while, and said: "The real Fanyu should still be alive. Previously, when you tracked that Bee Insect corpse, you already narrowed down the exact location of the Demon Clan’s base; we can go there and gather so information."
Huang Yi said, then turned to look at Young Master Luo, and said: "Xue Tianyu is a key figure, connected to both the Insect clan leader and the Demon Clan leader. It would be best to send soone who seems connected to Xue Tianyu, to investigate the Demon Clan’s base. Young Master Luo, you just happen to be a mber of the Blood Clan; this ti, you should go personally! Be smart, adapt to the situation, and collect so intelligence."
"Got it! I’ll go right away!" Young Master Luo imdiately nodded, flapping his blood-red wings, and flew swiftly towards the distance.
Huang Yi stayed in place, watching Young Master Luo flying away, like a strategist behind the scenes.
...
Young Master Luo flew at full speed for a long ti, and finally, a sinister demon palace appeared in the distance amidst a forest.
The demon palace emanated overwhelming demonic qi, and the surrounding trees had withered completely, deterring anyone from approaching easily.
Young Master Luo descended from high in the air from a distance and walked into the demon palace.
Inside the demon palace was a hall guarded by nurous imposing guards.
On the left passage of the hall, so Insect Guards were stationed.
On the right passage, so Demon Guards were stationed.
The two sides were clearly delineated, not engaging with each other.
Based on the guards’ positions, it could be deduced that the Bee Insect leader likely resided in the Left Hall, and the Demon Clan leader in the Right Hall.
As Young Master Luo walked in, the guards on both sides rely cast a casual glance at him, without questioning.
Just then, the sound of wings flapping suddenly resounded from the depths of the Left Hall, coming closer, revealing an Insect Guard.
It glanced around the hall, frowning: "Where is Xue Tianyu? Where did he go? I have already reported to Lord Zhuó Yèhuá; now you may enter and et Lord Zhuó Yèhuá!"
Another Insect Guard fixed its gaze on Young Master Luo, sized him up, and said: "Xue Tianyu was just called away by Lord Fanyu and then hurriedly left the Temple of Agony. After that, this Blood Clan mber ca in, probably a subordinate sent by Xue Tianyu!"
Upon hearing this, the previous Insect Guard turned to Young Master Luo, casting an inquisitive look.
Feeling a surge in his heart, Young Master Luo promptly nodded and said: "I am indeed a subordinate sent by Lord Xue Tianyu; he had an urgent matter to attend to and instructed to report the information to Lord Zhuó Yèhuá on his behalf."
"Then co with !" That Insect Clan Guard nodded and turned, leading the way towards the depths of the Left Hall.
Young Master Luo took a deep breath and quickly followed along.
Ten minutes later, Young Master Luo finally entered a secret room deep within the Left Hall, eting the Beehive leader of the Blood Moon Continent—Zhuó Yèhuá for the first ti.
At this ti, the other party lay with eyes closed on a soft couch, his aura weak, with faint traces of blood on his body, seemingly healing.
After arriving here, the Insect Guard who led the way visibly beca much more reserved; he bowed slightly and quickly left the chamber, leaving only Young Master Luo and Zhuó Yèhuá.
At this point, Zhuó Yèhuá opened his eyes, staring at Young Master Luo, showing a hint of caution, questioning: "Who are you to Xue Tianyu? The guard just said he wanted to et personally; why did he send you instead?!"
Though heavily injured, his interrogation still exhibited the domineering presence of the Two Steps Heaven phase!

Currently, I’m in Lanzhou, planning to take a train to Dunhuang later. I will probably be traveling for a few days, so updates will be inconsistent. Sorry about that.
