Now reading: Chapter 985 - 257: Using Truth to Bluff, Just Part of It (10 from Master of Strange Dao, a Action novel by Unsettling Youtiao.

The New Five trembled in fear and imdiately abandoned the plan of pretending not to notice upon realizing it.

"Congratulations, my lord, congratulations, my lord."

The Divine King responded softly, not revealing anything. The path of constant inheritance in the past was no longer the rule now.

The New Five quickly changed direction and continued,

"My lord, the original No.1 has disappeared without a trace, but he was tainted by Curse Qi and further eroded by Evil Qi. He has now beco insane and vanished.

No.2 is currently the Crown Prince of Daqian. After serving as Regent, he holds great power.

Even though his identity is exposed, no one believes it. He has now severed all ties with us.

I have just taken over and dare not make decisions on such significant matters without your instructions, my lord."

The Divine King was mildly surprised; his subordinates had indeed accomplished sothing major.

From what they said, it seems the Crown Prince has a chance of ascending to beco the next Emperor Qian.

The Divine King couldn't help but find it sowhat amusing when thinking about the past.

Initially indifferent, he now had so ideas.

"Describe the current situation in detail."

The New Five didn't understand why, but still dutifully explained the general situation of the Three Divine Dynasties.

He also ntioned the disappearance of Dadui and its expected return in a few centuries.

He specifically detailed the situation of Daqian.

The Divine King stood at the edge of the Void Cliff, as if he had suddenly leaped from a ti of oppression to an era brimming with opportunities.

Even he felt sowhat dazed.

The rise and fall of the human race have been too rapid for him.

Their rise was so swift it was hard to accept, like in the blink of an eye, they had gone from a heap of ants to equals who can et his gaze, even surpassing him in so aspects. The source of this content ɪs NoveI~Fire

Their decline was similarly swift, dropping to Ninth Tier in the blink of an eye.

He lost all the disguises he'd used over the years, a loss far beyond his expectations.

After a mont of contemplation, he said,

"Continue as usual. Keep an eye on No.2. Don't worry about past events. If necessary, help him ascend to the throne."

The New Five was sowhat astonished. Was No.2 let off just like that?

Though surprised, he respectfully answered,

"Yes, I understand, my lord."

"Could Dadui prevent its return?"

"Forgive , my lord, but given the current situation, it's what everyone expects. The trend has ford, and no one can stop it."

"Forget it. Don't bother with Dadui's matters; just focus on No.2."

"As you command, my lord."

Everything around them slowly faded, and the New Five returned to the secret chamber, where he put away the Jade Scroll.

He thought to himself, this new lord is not as generous as the forr one.

The forr one was at least quite generous, while this one offered no benefits, as if everything was taken for granted.

With the first encounter done, he understood how to handle future situations.

So aspects indeed couldn't be tricked.

For instance, when ntioning the Crown Prince of Daqian, this lord imdiately focused on No.2.

However, in so ways, he was even easier to fool than the forr lord.

He glossed over Jinlan Mountain and the East Sea, and when asked about the Divine Dynasties, he emphasized the Four Divine Dynasties.

Although clearly satisfied with the intelligence, this lord didn't even give a verbal complint.

It's like he barely knew anything.

It was as if he wasn't living in this era.

The New Five surmised that this new lord might be from the other side of the legendary sea, unaware of the situation here, which was understandable.

With his undercover experience, the New Five's heart settled back in his chest after the interaction.

It wasn't too difficult; just grasp the key points and avoid showing any flaws.

Side issues probably didn't concern this lord either.

As soon as he erged, the New Five left the new base and signaled Yu Ziqing.

He then went directly to wait in a secret chamber in Kuihou Country.

A day later, Yu Ziqing appeared in the secret chamber, and No.5 recounted the eting with Wig White Water Egg in detail.

Yu Ziqing wasn't surprised; most of it was as he anticipated.

He ruined the disguises of the Divine King; the most crucial legacy of those disguises was the experiences and the information they left.

Without these, the Divine King would have to start anew.

While assuming the White Water Egg organization was already destroyed was feasible, it would have been too conspicuous, eventually blowing his cover.

Instead, he would proceed in a normal way, just at a slower pace.

It was unexpected that the Divine King barely paid attention to Jinlan Mountain, to the hungry ghosts, or even to the Dragon Clan.

He only focused on No.2.

This was a bit beyond Yu Ziqing's expectations.

Was No.2 more important than the hungry ghosts who fed on Devils?

The New Five speculated that the new Wig White Water Egg was from the legendary sea's other side, and Yu Ziqing neither confird nor denied it.

He couldn't outright say that the current Wig White Water Egg was not a disguise but the original Divine King.

Without his disguises, out of sync with the tis, it was only natural.

He still retained his old style, neither offering verbal incentives nor tangible rewards, which was also typical.

Perhaps in the Divine King's eyes, the people in the White Water Egg organization working for him was as it should be; even giving their lives was a matter of course.

Alas, tis have changed.

rely put, today's people are different from the ones in the Divine King's era.

After reflecting, Yu Ziqing said,

"Go and et No.2. Tell him the new Wig wants you to help him ascend to the throne.

In addition, if soday I find a way to restore your face, with lesser costs,
