Chapter 2207: I’ve Finally Made This Important Decision
In the past, An Lin had always been frustrated about why none of his previous subordinates had come to express their loyalty to him after he had become the Heavenly Darkness God. All of them had become traitors.
He hadn’t been that horrible in his past, had he?
Thankfully, one of his subordinates was finally returning to him now.
However, he was slightly doubtful of their true intentions…
Sigh, this kind of feeling is so conflicting and irritating.
He had three options right now. The first was to send an army to attack the Eastern Heavenly Gate. If the Heavenly Light Goddess was truly absent, then they could directly obliterate the Eastern Heavenly Gate. If the Heavenly Light Goddess was present, however, then they would directly retreat and pretend that nothing had ever happened.
The second option was to secretly head to the Ancient Tai Chu Realm and sabotage the Heavenly Light Goddess’ plans. If the opportunity arose, he could even try to kill the Heavenly Light Goddess in the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.
The third option was to do nothing and pretend that he had never seen this message before. He would return to eat, sleep, and do whatever else he needed to do.
An Lin fell deep into thought.
However, the turtle thought that An Lin was mulling over the message, so it raised its head and asked, “You don’t understand?”
An Lin suddenly came to his senses. A sinister smile spread across his face as he looked at the turtle, and he said, “I’m thinking… this message is too important, so perhaps I should kill you and dispose of all evidence, lest this information is leaked…”
The turtle and Ferocious Cyclone Rabbit were on the verge of tears upon hearing this.
“Aaaah! Battle God An Lin, don’t kill me! I’m only a messenger!” The turtle immediately started to beg for its life as it retracted its entire body inside its shell.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak… Don’t kill me, I’m only someone who runs errands!” Meanwhile, the Ferocious Cyclone Rabbit held the turtle in front of it like a shield as it begged for its life.
An Lin couldn’t help but chuckle as he looked at the comedic duo before him.
“Alright, that’s enough. I was only joking. I won’t wantonly kill innocent beings.
“Come, here’s your reward.”
An Lin tossed two high-rank spirit pills toward the turtle and the rabbit.
The turtle and rabbit were shuddering in apprehension as they accepted the spirit pills. However, they didn’t dare to eat it.
Who knew if this powerful being was giving them poison?
An Lin smiled faintly as he turned around to leave.
Archangel Cheng Guang bowed respectfully and said, “Farewell, Battle God An Lin!”
The turtle hurriedly sprawled onto the ground and said, “Farewell, Patriarch An Lin!”
Meanwhile, the Ferocious Cyclone Rabbit hurriedly started to kowtow and say, “Farewell, Patriarch An Lin! Long live Patriarch An Lin!”
After saying this, the turtle and rabbit immediately turned around and sprinted into the distance.
Seeing that An Lin hadn’t shown any hostility toward those two beings, Archangel Cheng Guang naturally wouldn’t target them either. He allowed them to leave freely.
Meanwhile, at the easternmost point of the Tai Chu Continent.
A young woman with a golden turtle shell on her back was currently lying on the beach with her arms and legs sprawled wide apart. She was facing the sky and enjoying the warm sunshine.
Her golden turtle shell sparkled under the sunlight, and it appeared even more dazzling and eye-catching than pearls.
There were many things weighing on her mind at this moment.
“Will the Heavenly Darkness God truly believe me?
“Will the Heavenly Light Goddess suspect me if her plan is sabotaged? Should I flee and surrender to the enemy now?
“Otherwise, I might not be able to flee in the future…
“Moreover, the Heavenly Light Goddess is so powerful now, so it must be extremely difficult for the Heavenly Darkness God to defeat her, right? In other words, I’ve chosen the side of the loser?
“Waah… If I had known this earlier, then I wouldn’t have done anything. Why do I feel like An Lin will screw everything over…?”
The more Heavenly Goddess Wu Lan thought about this, the more regretful she felt. Why had she suddenly felt the impulse to send this intelligence to An Lin before?
So be it…
In any case, there’s no path of retreat anymore.
I’ll have to stand by him from now on.
Since I’ve acknowledged him as my new master, I can’t make any more changes.
Of course, this is unless my new master ignores my message and directly goes back to sleep.
Yue Tong City.
An Lin went back to lie down on his bed.
He wanted to sleep.
He wanted to forget about everything and have a good rest.
After all… was he truly going to risk going to the Ancient Tai Chu Realm because of this one unproven piece of intelligence?
What intelligence? What surrender? These were all empty claims made by Heavenly Goddess Wu Lan.
In the past, the Heavenly Sea God had even cooperated with him to screw the Heavenly Earth God over. Indeed, the Heavenly Sea God’s excuses were extremely reasonable and pleasant to the ears. However, when push came to shove, he had decisively screwed his so-called brother over as well.
However…
What if Heavenly Goddess Wu Lan’s information was true?
If that were the case, then he definitely had to sabotage the Heavenly Light Goddess’ plans!
“Sigh…
“Why am I always faced with such difficult dilemmas?”
After tossing and turning for a while, An Lin involuntarily recalled Heavenly Goddess Lin Yu’s teary expression when she gazed at him. He took a deep breath and immediately sat upright.
So be it! Heavenly Goddess Wu Lan is indeed my subordinate! Since she’s my subordinate, then I trust that she won’t screw me over even if she doesn’t serve me!
I’m confident that I’m charismatic enough for this to be true!
An Lin immediately headed for the door after coming to a decision.
“Dark Wing Emperor!” An Lin shouted.
A cloud of darkness suddenly appeared before him.
Immediately afterward, this cloud of darkness transformed into a mighty-looking man who had large black wings and possessed the aura of an emperor.
“Your subordinate is here. What orders does Heavenly Master have?” the Dark Wing Emperor said respectfully.
“I need to leave this city and attend to some important matters. You’re also a cultivator of the darkness element, so the element of your power is quite close to mine. I’ll bestow a portion of the Heavenly Darkness Power upon you, so you can pretend to be me in Yue Tong City. That way, our enemies will think that I’m still at Yue Tong City,” An Lin said.
The Dark Wing Emperor shuddered upon hearing this. Tears of emotion welled up in his eyes, and he said, “This subordinate understands!”
He understood what this portion of Heavenly Darkness Power signified.
Although he was helping An Lin, he could also gain the most fundamental power of darkness. This was a great fortune for his cultivation!
An Lin flicked his finger, sending a burst of darkness into the Dark Wing Emperor’s body,
The Dark Wing Emperor roared as his aura instantly rose explosively. Darkness surged through his body, causing his black wings to become even darker and more profound.
“Ah… What a splendid and mesmerizing power. This is the true meaning of life…
“This is the paramount Dao that I aspire toward…”
The Dark Wing Emperor was brimming with excitement as he bowed toward An Lin.
“Thank you, Heavenly Master!”
“Alright, then I’ll leave if there’s nothing else. I’ll leave Yue Tong City to you.”
There was a flash as An Lin instantly disappeared from the spot.
Since the Heavenly Light Goddess had left a fake to guard the Eastern Heavenly Gate, An Lin decided to emulate her and do the same thing, leaving a fake to guard Yue Tong City. In any case, he was merely trying to deceive his enemies.
Sometime later, in the Heavenly Court that was located among the clouds.
There was a mysterious door of light in some secret forbidden land.
Emperor Ziwei wore an expression of unease as he gazed at An Lin.
“An Lin, do you genuinely want to go to the Ancient Tai Chu Realm? The passageway hasn’t opened yet…”
However, An Lin had already forcefully stabbed a hand into the door before Emperor Ziwei could even finish his sentence. A burst of darkness engulfed all of the nomological laws and obstructions behind the door of light.
“What were you saying?”
An Lin turned to look at Emperor Ziwei as he stepped inside the door.
Emperor Ziwei: “…”
“That’s… the Ancient Tai Chu Realm. It’s restricted by extremely powerful nomological laws, and these are able to suppress all cultivators at or above the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage from entering…” Emperor Ziwei said in concern.
An Lin smiled upon hearing this. “Don’t forget, I’m the Heavenly Darkness God. I know how to trick heaven and earth and evade the backlash of the Heavenly Dao.”
Emperor Ziwei: “…”
Emperor Ziwei suddenly realized that he couldn’t say anything else.
The man before him had already grown to become a being that even he had to admire and marvel at.
“Then… An Lin, you definitely have to return safely!”
“Rest assured, Ziwei. I’ll return in a few days.” An Lin waved his hand as his body disappeared into the two-realm passageway. His actions were extremely firm and decisive.
