Underwater city, Lu Yu walked along the street, seeing barely a soul.
In his path were sea creatures hurriedly dashing past, either fully ard sea soldiers or elegantly dressed rfolk.
The two were heading in opposite directions.
The forr wore tense expressions, rushing towards the battlefield with heavy hearts, while the latter was filled with laughter and excitent, as if attending a grand ceremony.
In the crowd, Lu Yu blended in, with no one noticing his presence.
Following the elegantly dressed rfolk, he ventured deeper into the underwater city, witnessing many sights unique to the seabed.
Houses made from giant shells, skyscrapers ford from coral, pineapple-shaped villas...
The glow of the underwater city emanated from these naturally ford dwellings, and a large Luminous Pearl placed high above, as brilliant as the sun, illuminating the dark underwater world.
Flowing with the crowd, Lu Yu arrived at a massive square resembling a vortex, spiraling downward layer by layer.
Most of the rfolk remained on the outskirts, the upper tiers of the square, all gazing expectantly below, at the center of the vortex square.
Standing at the edge of the first tier of the vortex square, Lu Yu peered down below; he sensed the presence of the All-Seeing Realm from below.
The All-Seeing Realm aura from the vortex square was much stronger than those sea creatures on the battlefield, Lu Yu could only faintly sense it.
The All-Seeing Realm sea creatures at the vortex square were focused entirely on the square's center, where sothing very pivotal seed to be unfolding.
Thus, he paid no attention to the outside and didn't notice Lu Yu among the sea people.
Lu Yu wasn't reckless either, deliberately limiting his gaze from touching that All-Seeing Realm's location.
True powerhouses, even an unconscious glance, can alert the other of anomalies.
Hai Wei's Colorful Scale guided Lu Yu; Hai Wei was at the bottom of the vortex square.
He had reached this far, yet Lu Yu still couldn't see Hai Wei, but he couldn't advance further; ahead was an absolute forbidden area.
Nevertheless, there was no need for him to proceed; under the sea creatures' protection, Hai Wei naturally wouldn't face danger.
Initially sensing a change with the Colorful Scale, Lu Yu had wanted to take a look; now, knowing Hai Wei was fine, he found he had nothing else to do.
Just as he was about to leave, an indescribable aura emanated from the square's bottom, making Lu Yu feel as though the world's center was right there.
He had never experienced such a feeling before, lost in thought for a mont, a shadowy figure rose from the vortex square's center.
In Lu Yu's eyes, the figure was surrounded by countless laws of light and chains of order, unidentifiable by gender.
Uncertain if it was an illusion, Lu Yu felt as if the figure glanced at him.
It couldn't be called a look, more like a gaze swept over him, giving him a sense of being watched.
Once the figure flew far away, the All-Seeing Realm sea creature flew out, glanced at Lu Yu hidden at the square's edge, said nothing, and followed the figure away.
Since even the Demon Emperor didn't bother with the human here, the All-Seeing Realm sea creatures naturally wouldn't ddle.
Moreover, compared to a human appearing in sea city, the reappearance of the legendary Demon Emperor intrigued the All-Seeing Realm sea creatures more.
After a while, Lu Yu regained his composure, noticing the Colorful Scale in his palm had lost its luster.
"Ah~ How can humans be here?"
"How can there be humans here?"
"Quick! Guards, where are the guards?"
The surrounding rfolk exclaid, retreating upon seeing Lu Yu, so of them calling out for guards.
Lu Yu glanced around; faces of the rfolk bore panic, and with a thought, he vanished from the spot, disappearing from all the rfolk's view.
Soon, sea creature guards arrived at the square; after a chaotic search, they withdrew, leaving the remaining rfolk to continue the ceremony.
After all, only a few rfolk had seen Lu Yu, without causing much of a stir.
Leaving with the sea soldiers from the sea city, Lu Yu easily exited the underwater city, reaching the outside battlefield, where he saw an indescribable glow standing opposite the Immortal Demon Lord.
The two seed to be conversing; Lu Yu couldn't discern, but it didn't appear they were about to fight.
Actually, by this point, Lu Yu's mind had a guess about the identity of that figure.
Held in such reverence by the sea people, with extraordinary power, and connected to Hai Wei, all factors combined, only one person ca to Lu Yu's mind.
The Demon Emperor, the legendary being of countless avatars, seeking transcendence.
anwhile, the image of the Immortal Demon Lord in Lu Yu's mind also beca more mysterious.
If the Immortal Demon Lord could converse with the Demon Emperor, just who is he? Who was he during his life?
The only certainty Lu Yu had was that the Immortal Demon Lord must have been a Saint Ancestor level powerhouse during his lifeti.
Because even the All-Seeing Realm sea creatures, who flew out with the Demon Emperor, stood at a respectful distance as the two talked, and those All-Seeing Realm sea creatures on the battlefield stood behind him.
The high and low standing was abundantly clear.
On the battlefield, resurrected souls still fell, utterly turning to dust returning to earth; the war ended.
Even when Lu Yu thought the two had peacefully ended, the Immortal Demon Lord suddenly struck the Demon Emperor, a world-shattering black light shot from his palm towards the Demon Emperor.
