"Accident?" Song Fei raised a brow and looked at Kenneth, the Ruler of Nightmares, with a cold smile.
Kenneth appeared as a sowhat thin old man with slightly gray skin and a few wrinkles on his face. He didn’t seem very energetic.
"That's right." Kenneth said slowly, "The god who dealt with him only found out after the fact that he’d settled here as early as six hundred years ago. The reason he was imdiately disposed of was due to suspicion that he was involved in a God Hunt."
Song Fei's brows furrowed slightly. Only after Kenneth explained further did he realize what happened.
It wasn't really that complicated. While the gods were hunting down a God Hunter, they found out that he had contact with Lu Yang and suspected him of being involved in this matter as well.
In reality, that God Hunter was indeed a close friend of Lu Yang’s, and he ca to the World of Gods on the pretext of visiting Lu Yang while secretly participating in the God Hunt.
There was indeed no lack of cool-headed people amongst the Star Rulers, and such a cover was definitely much smarter than what people like Mai Cheng did.
By the ti the gods ca to his door to investigate, Lu Yang, despite not being all that strong and not having even chosen his own astral world yet, had an unyielding temper.
At the very least, he was the direct disciple of a Unified Dao powerhouse. How could he endure having his house searched and inspected? Conflict erupted between the two sides, and Lu Yang was killed on the spot.
Perhaps not even Lu Yang himself expected the situation this ti to be so serious, but there was no room for regret.
Song Fei listened to the other party with a dark expression and was about to speak, but then his expression changed violently.
……
By the ti Daoist Lingyang hurriedly arrived near the Gluttony Divine Kingdom, Shi Yeyan had already been completely dismbered by Gu Nan.
The head of Song Fei's favored disciple was tossed aside lonesoly, a look of disbelief frozen on his face.
Let alone him, even Daoist Lingyang never imagined that such a Star Ruler on par with a Tier 9 god couldn’t even last a single exchange at Gu Nan's hands.
Didn’t he just advance to Realm Level?
If he was already this strong now, then wouldn’t he be able to easily kill anyone under Unified Dao once he reached Heaven Level?
But Gu Nan wasn’t surprised in the slightest. Indeed, Shi Yeyan wasn’t even able to put up any resistance to his sneak attack and had his heart directly blasted apart.
After all, the current Gu Nan could already fight Tier 10 enemies head on, and he also used a sneak attack this ti, so a Star Ruler was no different from a mortal in his hands.
Reality wasn’t a novel. The stronger person wasn’t determined by simply displaying the greatest combat power.
The characteristics of one’s abilities, the fighters’ conditions, who attacked first, etc., will all affect the final outco.
Gu Nan ignored Daoist Lingyang's arrival. He was using a longsword to cut up Shi Yeyan's corpse, slicing him into neat pieces.
After the corpse was completely cut up, he burned it with fire.
Daoist Lingyang watched all this in silence. Being sowhat familiar with the God of Gluttony, he knew exactly what Gu Nan was doing.
Cutting up the victim’s soul along with their corpse was exactly what Freidman always did before eating his "food".
He was still playing the sa trick of pinning the bla on soone else!
But this ti, Daoist Lingyang no longer felt that such a tactic was clumsy. The reason was simple: Shi Yeyan was the one who died.
The death of a few apostles was an insignificant matter that wouldn't cloud either side’s judgnt, but what if the one who died was Shi Yeyan?
Two of Song Fei’s disciples died in the World of Gods. One of them even followed him over and was killed right under his nose… If he could still concede in this situation, then he might as well wait for the total collapse of Academic Heaven once he returns.
This was also an overt sche…
Daoist Lingyang looked at Gu Nan in silence, only now fully understanding the goal behind all his actions.
His plan was crude because he simply didn't care. When Shi Yeyan died, all the holes in the plan would no longer be holes.
"What would you gain from inciting a war between the two sides?" Daoist Lingyang slowly collected his thoughts and asked with a serious gaze.
Gu Nan, who was disposing of Shi Yeyan's corpse at this mont, shook his head with a smile. "Didn't I already tell you?"
Gu Nan's words stunned Daoist Lingyang slightly, and before he could even think about what exactly he’d been told already, Gu Nan had already swung a fist at his head.
A punch to the head without any rcy!
Since he’d seen through Gu Nan’s secret, it was only natural that he be silenced. Gu Nan was never the type to have misgivings because of past friendship.
However, the expected scene of a head exploding didn’t happen. Blue light erged in front of Daoist Lingyang. A Daoist talisman appeared between the two, emitting a faint light.
Gu Nan recognized this talisman. It was the very sa talisman Daoist Lingyang used to restrain Lewis and eventually kill the other party.
"A Tier 11 item?" Only when he was personally confronted with this talisman did Gu Nan truly realize how powerful it was.
Daoist Lingyang seed to expect the attack and calmly spoke without any surprise on his face, "That's right. This is a treasure a senior left behind, which I obtained by chance when I was young."
Daoist Lingyang himself was probably between Tier 8 and Tier 9, and it was with this talisman that he was able to kill the Tier 10 God of Tenebrosity in the first place.
Now, he was also relying on this talisman to block Gu Nan's attack. If he didn't have this trump card, who was he to dare co and persuade Gu Nan to turn back?
"Too bad you’re too late." Gu Nan shook his head. "I can't kill you, but I can keep an eye on you."
As he spoke, he leisurely waved his hand, and pitch-black shadows wrapped around the blue curtain of light, sending Daoist Lingyang directly out of this plane.
……
Above the endless void, Song Fei's sudden dark expression turned the atmosphere a little tense.
It was Zou Jiming’s first ti seeing Song Fei so emotional, so he couldn't help wondering, "What happened?"
"Sothing happened to Yeyan as well," Song Fei cast a cold glance at the two greater gods and answered without hiding anything.
He retained a fragnt of Shi Yeyan's soul, so he was able to sense the latter's state.
However, the soul fragnt suddenly shattered just now, and the last ssage that was transmitted over was Shi Yeyan's soul being cut into countless pieces, with no possibility of resurrection.
The two greater gods also heard Song Fei, and the Ruler of Nightmares imdiately turned to look at Eugene, the God of War beside him.
"Why are you looking at ? I didn't do it!" Eugene instantly roared.
Indeed, two people popped into Kenneth’s head as soon as he heard the news—one was the Beast God from his faction, and the other was Eugene.
Both of them were warlike beings who wished the world was in chaos!
"Your Excellency Song Fei, we will give you an explanation for this matter," Kenneth hurriedly said, but secretly, he wasn’t so sure.
Even he couldn't be sure that this wasn't done by one of his own people.
Or rather, he could basically confirm that one of his people had killed Shi Yeyan—it wasn’t like Song Fei’s disciple ran to the World of Gods just to commit suicide. The only difference was whether or not there was still a way to reconcile the situation.
Song Fei remained silent for a while and finally replied coldly, "Fine. I'll wait for this explanation."
After saying that, he stord off, no longer planning to stay here.
