Chapter 1943 – A Large Patch of Forest  

Daoist Yuyu’s appearance broke the tenuous balance that’d been struck. His four enormous swords brimmed with killing intent and simulated a killing formation, sending killing force crashing against the barrier of this disordered territory.

The Disordered Empyrean Supreme looked at him with dismay. The daoist really had recovered to his full strength! While he wasn’t an empyrean supreme, he was the strongest among the peak grand supremes. Armed with his swords, it would have to take four peak grand supremes acting in concert to take him down. Otherwise, just one or two alone would find it difficult to constrain him.

Not to mention, he was also aided by Yun Yi and Tailong.

“Hmph!” she snorted and looked deeply at Lu Yun. She waved her hand and sent away the throne and disordered radiance in the surroundings. She then turned on her heel and left as well.

Disordered vortexes reappeared in the area, but they posed no threat to the group since there were three peak grand supremes with them.

“Well, that was fast.” Daoist Yuyu stowed his swords and finally looked at Lu Yun, breaking into a huge grin. “How about it? Suuuuurprise!”

“Meh, you recovered a long time ago, didn’t you?” Lu Yun huffed.

Daoist Yuyu chuckled sheepishly and didn’t respond.

“I suspect that the god of Mount Tai has betrayed the chief worlds,” Lu Yun continued. “It might be the doom of the Disordered Empyrean Supreme if she seeks out her disciple.”

“Don’t worry,” Yun Yi nodded. She’d guessed that it was the mountain god behind things after being caught in a trap set by a peak grand supreme from the land of darkness. “Although she is heavily injured, her core essence is still that of an empyrean supreme. She will be the foremost peak grand supreme of the realm again if she’s given enough time to recover. It won’t be that easy for the land of darkness to scheme against her and we can actually use her hand to tear down some of their setups.”

The Disordered Empyrean Supreme would certainly be attacked by the land of darkness if she went to find her disciple. If both sides ended up worse for the worse, Lu Yun would be able to capture the mountain god and use him to create a new Land of Reincarnation.

The god of Mount Tai had been a peak grand supreme in the past, but he was also just a grand supreme now. Hell dao was his chance to recover his strength, so he would never give it up.

“Will the Disordered Empyrean Supreme defect to the darkness?” Lu Yun suddenly worried.

“She won’t.” Tailong firmly shook his head, but didn’t give a reason why.

“Then… fine. We’ll really give her the shamanic race just like this?” Lu Yun still wasn’t at ease with letting the grand supreme run around like this. She was as if a tiger, ready to pounce at him at any time. In fact, he very much rather that the peak grand supremes protecting him kill the woman, once and for all.

“Shamanic dao is a great dao under dark dao and they have taken it to extremely prosperous levels. It sits at the same level as dark dao now, so the latter will certainly destroy shamanic dao if the land of darkness invades. Or at the very least, it will bring the shamans to heel. The Disordered Empyrean Supreme is the only one who can save them,” Yun Yi explained. “She’s not a bad person, she just wants hell dao to help her get back to being an empyrean supreme.”

“…not a bad person, eh?” Lu Yun’s teeth ached.

“That’s right,” Daoist Yuyu nodded. “But I’ll still kill her if I have the chance to.”

Although his name had been erased from the Tome of Life and Death, some things were branded into the depths of his soul. When he sensed the threat to Lu Yun’s life, he immediately came to rescue his savior.

“Fine, fine, she’s not a bad person if you guys say so. I’m going to the tomb of the empyrean supreme,” Lu Yun grumbled and clapped Cen Sui’s shoulder. “I’m going to take the void robbers, I trust you have no objections?”

Cen Sui glared at him, but shrank in on himself when he looked at the three peak grand supremes. These august personages were all here to protect Lu Yun. One of them even wanted to kill the Disordered Empyrean Supreme because she’d threatened Lu Yun’s life. These backers were too strong for him to deal with.

“Take them if you want. They’re a poisonous tumor in Cen Sui’s hands anyway,” Yun Yi waved her off. “If that’s all, I’ll be off.”

She’d already left when her last word hung in the air.

Tailong looked meaningfully at Daoist Yuyu and smiled at Lu Yun. “My strategist, you can take your place by our sides when you become a peak grand supreme.”

He left as well.

“That’s weird. His tone sounds like they’re fighting someone else. Is our enemy not the land of darkness?” Lu Yun wondered.

“Hahaha!!” Daoist Yuyu poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth. “Enemy? What enemy?

“We view the land of darkness as demons because their orders are the opposite of ours. In our world, order is order and disorder is anti-order. But in the land of darkness, our order is disorder and theirs is order.

“They view us just like we do them—demons.”

Lu Yun started, then nodded slowly.

“This plane of existence is like a massive jungle. We’re just trying to carve out a tiny sanctuary for ourselves. If we wish to survive, we must fight and tear at each other. We are this way and so is the land of darkness. And of course, there are more than the two of us in this forest.

“But you guys are too small to have the right to learn of this,” Daoist Yuyu concluded in a mysterious way.

“This guy’s small too?” Lu Yun pointed at Cen Sui.

“Well, he’s big enough, but he’s useless. He can’t even keep the void robbers under control, so who’s going to let him in on those secrets?” Daoist Yuyu rolled his eyes. “If my guess is right, Yun Yi was originally going to kill this guy as an afterthought after the Disordered Empyrean Supreme came back to life. She would send someone else to take control of the void robbers instead.”

Cen Sui shuddered.

“It’s actually for the best that you’re taking them. Let’s keep this all in-house, eh?” Daoist Yuyu cackled at Cen Sui.

The man was sweating profusely and shaking like a leaf. He bobbed his head up and down. It no longer mattered who he swore allegiance to—he’d been blacklisted by the peak grand supremes! He might die at any second!

“How about I take you to the tomb?” Daoist Yuyu smiled.

“Nah, he can take me. You should remain out of sight. Ah yes, how are your two senior brothers and Senior Hongjun?” Lu Yun asked.

“You need to work harder. We’ve attached our great dao to immortal dao and will live or die with it. I’ve made a full recovery, but they need immortal dao to help them. If you can recreate a Land of Reincarnation, you won’t need to worry about us anymore.”

Cen Sui wanted nothing more than to bash his head open on the ground. He’d just heard secrets he wasn’t supposed to and therefore completely tied himself to Lu Yun’s banner!
