Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When the faceless man didn’t move, no one in the Great Han camp could detect him.
As soon as he moved, the people from the Great Han camp locked onto him.
However, Xu You didn’t say anything, so the Great Han people didn’t dare to act rashly. The dozen or so Great Han experts just watched as the faceless man left.
But at this time, Gongsun Zan was also a little impatient. “Mr. Xu, aren’t you a little suspicious of letting the tiger return to the mountain?
Whether it’s Li Ying or the one just now, if you let them go like this, it will have a negative impact on our future resolution of the Yellow Turban Rebellion!”
“The Yellow Turban Rebellion doesn’t have much of an impact with or without them!”
As Xu You spoke, she looked in the direction of the giant deer and muttered, “Or rather, I’m looking forward to them having some influence!
I saw the shadow of light in him!”
“Mr. Xu?”
Cao Mengde was taken aback. He didn’t understand what Xu You meant.
Xu You turned to look at him and said something that made Cao Mengde’s scalp tingle.
“I actually have the same expectations for you!”
Xu You’s casual words shocked Cao Mengde.
A myriad of thoughts ran through his mind.
What did he mean?
Did he know something?
Was this a beating?
Before Cao Mengde could figure out what was going on, Xu You suddenly clapped her hands. “Alright, that’s all for today. Everyone, disperse!”
Then, Xu You patted Cao Mengde’s shoulder and said, “Don’t think too much, do your best!
Oh right, I promised Li Ying to let him go to Julu. Help me keep an eye on him along the way. I don’t think his journey will be peaceful!”
After saying that, Xu You took a step forward and disappeared.
At the same time, the dozen or so people who followed Xu You also left.
In the end, only Cao Mengde and the two burly men behind him were left.
Cao Mengde was still deep in thought.
He was thinking about what Xu You had just said and also the purpose of Xu You’s actions today.
“Why do I feel that his goal isn’t as simple as the Eastern Han’s secret realm!
With his ability, if he hadn’t left a few years ago, the Eastern Han’s Source Secret Realm would have been taken by now, right?
A few years ago, he didn’t do anything and had been holding back until recently.
Why?
What is he plotting?”
As he mulled over these doubts, he could only sigh softly.
“Forget it, let’s not care about this for now. Let’s finish the work first!”
Then, Cao Mengde turned around and left with the two people behind him.
On the other side, at Wu Wei’s side.
After leaving Xu You’s side, Wu Wei headed straight for Julu.
Along the way, Wu Wei didn’t stop and didn’t bother to hide.
Since Xu You had already guaranteed that no one from the Great Han camp would stop him on his way to Julu, Wu Wei believed that the Great Han camp would not attack him.
Xu You didn’t need to act one way in front of him and another behind his back.
Without the obstruction of the Great Han camp, Wu Wei felt that he should be able to reach Julu smoothly.
Yes, that was what he thought, but when he started to head to Julu, Wu Wei realized that he had thought too simply.
However, the Great Han Army wasn’t the only one who wanted him to head to Julu.
In fact, compared to the Great Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han’s secret domain of the Origin was even more hostile toward Wu Wei.
Wu Wei walked less than ten kilometers in the direction of Julu. When he passed by a canyon, the canyon suddenly collapsed. There happened to be a poisonous flower growing in the canyon that could paralyze people.
Wu Wei was almost buried alive in that canyon.
He finally came out of the canyon. When he passed by a river, a ninth grade evil python suddenly jumped out and whipped at him with its tail.
That tail almost took him away.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, the evil python’s figure suddenly stopped, allowing Wu Wei to escape.
And all of this was just the beginning.
As Wu Wei got closer to the giant deer, the frequency of the dangers he encountered became faster and faster, and the dangers he encountered became more and more terrifying.
Sometimes, when one stepped out, a sinkhole could appear on flat ground.
Walking on the plains, the clear sky suddenly became stormy.
And it was even more common for an evil beast to appear out of nowhere.
During this short journey, Wu Wei had fully experienced the malice of the Eastern Han’s Origin Secret Realm towards him.
It was a kind of malicious intent that did not hide at all!
After experiencing the source of the Eastern Han Mystery Land, he recalled his experience in corrupting the Tang Mystery Land.
Wu Wei suddenly felt that the corrupted Great Tang was treating him like his own father.
He had been corrupting the Great Tang for so long and had not encountered any danger.
Not only was there no danger when the territory leveled up, even if he used his side account to wander around, it would be a safe journey.
One had to know that his side account was quite ruthless at that time. Wu Wei himself slashed from east to west and then from west to east.
Along the way, Wu Wei didn’t know how many monsters he had killed or how far he had walked. He was still in the fog, but nothing happened to him.
Looking at the Eastern Han’s secret realm, Wu Wei felt that it was already a great kindness for him not to choke to death.
Of course, the Eastern Han’s Origin Secret Realm wasn’t always targeting Wu Wei.
As long as Wu Wei stopped and distanced himself from the giant deer, the Eastern Han’s secret domain would restrain its malice towards him.
Wu Wei could even see the treasure chest when he turned around.
This was obviously a stick and carrot trick.
If Wu Wei walked forward, the Eastern Han secret region would try its best to smash him to death. If he retreated, not only would Wu Wei be fine, he would even get a few mouthfuls of candy!
This was a good strategy, but Wu Wei didn’t like it!
This was because this was a tactic used by those in power to teach the weak.
Wu Wei did not like the feeling of being taught!
There was another one.
“You want to send me away with just a Gold Treasure Chest?
Isn’t this looking down on me too much?”
Wu Wei sneered and continued to move forward.
Not long after Wu Wei continued forward, another treasure chest appeared in front of him.
This time, the treasure chest was a Gold Treasure Chest. It was a treasure chest of a higher level than the Gold Treasure Chest, and it was especially beautiful.
As Wu Wei’s gaze fell on the treasure chest, the attributes of the treasure chest appeared in front of him.
[Name: Exclusive Dark Gold Treasure Chest]
[Description: A dark gold treasure chest specially prepared for you in the Origin Secret Realm of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Opening condition: Heavenly Book of Peace, Volume 1]
[PS: Hand over the first volume of the Heavenly Book of Peace and you will receive this treasure chest.]
The bad luck on your body will disappear!
“He’s here!”
Looking at the attributes of the treasure chest in front of him, Wu Wei narrowed his eyes.
He knew very well that this was basically the last carrot given to him by Eastern Han’s secret region.
No, this was no longer a carrot. This was an ultimatum.
Wu Wei looked at the treasure chest!
He was sure that if he did not open this treasure chest, he would probably face a fatal situation if he continued forward.
He left the Heavenly Book of Peace behind to open the treasure chest and leave with the items inside.
It wasn’t an easy decision to make to go past this treasure chest and face the unknown danger.
Therefore, Wu Wei came to the side of the treasure chest and sat cross-legged, staring blankly at the treasure chest in front of him.
While Wu Wei was looking at the treasure chest, not far behind him, two groups of people were watching him from the shadows.
One of them was Wu Wei’s faceless senior brother.
The other group consisted of Cao Mengde and the other two.
Both Cao Mengde and the faceless man had mixed feelings when they saw Wu Wei sitting in front of the treasure chest.
The faceless man’s complicated emotions were more of a simple worry about what Wu Wei would do next.
As for Cao Mengde.
He was thinking more on his side.
Along the way, he had witnessed how Wu Wei had targeted this world.
To be honest, Cao Mengde had mixed feelings when he saw Wu Wei being targeted by this world.
He put himself in Wu Wei’s shoes.
What should he do when faced with the rejection of the world?
Should he continue to move forward despite the rejection of the power of heaven and earth, or stop here?
When Cao Mengde was thinking about this, he was glad that he wasn’t Wu Wei and didn’t have to face the rejection of the Power of Heaven and Earth.
However, Cao Mengde thought about it.
Was he really not Wu Wei?
Would the current Wu Wei be the future him?
Even if he would not encounter the same situation as Wu Wei in the future, and he was lucky enough to defeat all the opponents of the Great Han camp and finally obtain control of the Eastern Han mystic realm.
At that time, did he win the secret realm or did the secret realm choose him?
Did he control the mystic realm, or did the mystic realm control him?
As he was thinking about these questions, Cao Mengde suddenly thought of Xu You.
“Could it be that a few years ago, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to completely control Eastern Han’s Origin Secret Realm, but that he couldn’t?
Was the time ripe for him to return this time, or did he have other plans?”
Cao Mengde pondered.
The faceless man was nervous. Wu Wei sat cross-legged in front of the treasure chest and hesitated.
Half an hour later, Wu Wei took out a book and began to read it.
Wu Wei’s small gesture instantly made the faceless man feel refreshed. Cao Mengde already knew Wu Wei’s choice.
Compared to the two of them, Eastern Han’s secret realm of the source reacted slower.
Wu Wei spent the whole day reading. It was only then that he realized that Wu Wei had no intention of opening the treasure chest.
As a result, dark clouds covered Wu Wei’s head, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
Thick dark clouds covered the sky, giving off a feeling that the end of the world was coming.
Amidst the dark clouds, lightning, and thunder, the figures of flood dragons appeared in the clouds, and a terrifying aura suppressed them.
At the same time, a golden finger notification appeared in front of Wu Wei.
[You have obtained the mystical realm’s fortuitous encounter [Flood Dragon Scrambles for the Pearl]. If you safely pass this fortuitous encounter, you will receive the corresponding performance reward!]
At the same time as the golden finger’s notification, a sparkling pearl appeared in front of Wu Wei.
The moment the pearl appeared, Wu Wei family’s Sixth Brother’s Origin Talisman page trembled. The pearl and Sixth Brother instantly attracted each other!
At the same time, above the dark clouds, flood dragons poked their heads out and looked at Wu Wei!
