Muddying the water worked in Duge’s favor, as the more chaotic the situation, the better for him.
A negotiation that was destined not to have an outco didn’t need to be conducted with any real effort; it was rely a process of mutual probing.
"Why would I not agree?" the First Saint enshrouded himself in black fog, and as he spoke, the fog surged. "You open your mouth and try to sow discord between and the God-king, Duge. It must be you who has no desire to negotiate!"
His tone was calm, as if he were not the least bit affected.
Emperor Donghua almost imperceptibly shook his head at Duge.
Fine then!
The opponent really had shielding skills.
Duge silently sighed; knowing his skill could influence the opposite sex, he still had agreed to negotiate with them, keeping a contingency plan in hand. Seeing Emperor Donghua’s divine skill wasted like this ultimately made him feel sowhat regretful.
Duge turned his gaze to Fang Xiangcheng.
Fang Xiangcheng nodded slightly and stealthily triggered two skills: "A Thorn in My Side" and "I Know Your Secret."
Emperor Donghua’s "Slinging Mud" was a negative skill, but Fang Xiangcheng’s "A Thorn in My Side" was literally a spying one, of a physical nature...
Combining with Fang Xiangcheng’s espionage, Duge retorted, "Saint, do you even believe your own words? I bet you don’t even trust your own protege, Regent Joseline!
You are skilled in The Way of Space. If real danger would co, as long as you ran faster than your teammates, you would be successful.
Back when the King of Heavenly Gods had you running for your life, it was only thanks to the surprise rise of the Thorne Divine Tribe that you were lucky enough to survive. If you had deigned to turn back and help the Thorne God-king at that ti, would the King of Heavenly Gods have dominated the Universe for so many years?
In the end, you fled and hid for thousands of years. Do you think this ti you can hold your ground? I certainly don’t believe it. Thorne God-king, I dare to entrust my back to the King of Heavenly Gods. Do you dare do the sa with him?"
This was pure incitent. Emperor Donghua had "Slinging Mud," but Duge also had similar skills: "Tirelessly Ruinous" and "Heart Attack," which could also shake the opponent’s spirit, only with less imdiate effects.
Both sides being enemies, no one really took Duge’s words seriously. But with Fang Xiangcheng’s spying, the effect was imdiate.
Masters are sensitive.
At the instant Fang Xiangcheng spied on them, the Thorne God-king and the First Saint both sensed the surveillance coming from behind.
But when they paid closer attention, they couldn’t spot anyone.
Among those present, the only ones who could evade their perception while still making them feel spied upon were those of a similar level.
It certainly couldn’t be Duge from the opposing side spying on them.
The natives, after all, lacked experience in dealing with keywords; they would never think of a boring skill like "A Thorn in My Side."
Both sighed internally at the sa ti, recognizing Duge was right; the opponents couldn’t be trusted. They had to rely on themselves.
But since they had already ford an alliance, they wouldn’t make the embarrassing move of falling out during a virtual eting.
However, the feeling of being watched from behind was truly uncomfortable.
The First Saint was hidden within the black fog, his expression unseen, but the Thorne God-king looked towards the Saint’s direction involuntarily.
His gaze left the First Saint bewildered. Irritated by the slight provocation from Duge, he had beco agitated—serves you right for being hamred by Duge, an unworthy plotter!
Duge’s attribute of spiritual power was enough to overpower any other Alien Warrior—even with Juno’s situation and Agate’s Purification, he easily breached the Thorne God-king and the First Saint’s hearts, planting a seed of mutual doubt.
As Duge spoke,
Daoist Ancestor couldn’t help but frown, "Agate, has Duge’s side used a skill?"
Agate shook his head, "Joseline, my skill is just immune to the influence of negative skills. I do not know if the opponent has used a skill. But the woman on the God King’s Vessel is still rational; my skill remains effective."
"Do you have a plan for the won of the Heavenly Gods Clan to recover their senses?" Daoist Ancestor asked another question.
Agate gave Daoist Ancestor a sidelong glance, "What are you thinking? How could my perception cover such a distance? Besides, the perception can be shielded inside a spaceship."
"Feis, have you figured out what skills Duge has?" Daoist Ancestor asked.
"I need to see Duge in person," Feis replied languidly.
The Immortal Emperor gave Daoist Ancestor a glance and silently sighed. Facing Duge, Daoist Ancestor’s focus had been disturbed. With such a state of mind, how could he possibly overco Duge?
Daoist Ancestor gave the Thorne God-king a aningful look.
The Thorne God-king understood and a flash of anger crossed his face, "Duge, since you have no intention of negotiating, why put on a pretense here? Who do you think you’re fooling? You started this war, and that’s clear to everyone.
Since we can’t co to any agreent, let’s just settle this on the battlefield. The matters of our Universe don’t need you, an outsider, to adjudicate. Killing you, we can still deal with Pan-Universe Entertainnt on our own."
"Good, God-king. Since you want a battle, let it be so!" Duge laughed. Emperor Donghua’s skills being ineffective, continuing to probe was pointless. They would just show their true ttle on the battlefield!
In reality,
From the beginning of the negotiations, Duge had always had a vague sense of unease.
He had never felt this before; it was not like being under the influence of a skill, but more like an intuition, the kind you get when danger is imminent.
His strength had been growing and he had unconsciously developed many Divine Skills, as if indeed evolving towards the Heavenly Dao...
To avoid any mishaps during the long night, he decided to strike first.
In the Domain of the King of Heavenly Gods, he could carve a character for ’fish’ on the back of the King of Heavenly Gods. Now that his strength had progressed from that ti, he didn’t believe he couldn’t take down both the Thorne God-king and the First Saint.
