"What a brute."

With a glance at the corpse of the Thousand Faces on the ground, Sisisi remarked, "Wasn't this human the one who killed Hanuman? I'm avenging your compatriot, yet you seem like you want to avenge this human?"

Looking at the corpse of Thousand Faces, Le Yuxin felt no sadness.

They were merely competitors, with no friendship to speak of, so how could he feel sad? Moreover, the "Ultimate Forgetfulness" blocked emotions of sadness, and Le Yu had long become a bloodless and tearless mecha pilot.

However, when he saw Thousand Faces being slaughtered like an animal by Sisisi, his throat cut, belly ripped open, and heart extracted, his killing intent was genuine.

At this moment, Le Yu, who had never cared about such racial conflicts, suddenly understood the Glorious Grand Ancestor, understood the first Pope of the Undead Sect, even understood the Smile, understood Sisisi, and understood Wuzhiqi.

Everyone has a predetermined destiny, with choices they can and cannot make. The weak are naturally swept into the torrent of destiny, but the strong are merely the ones striding into the arena of destiny's struggle.

They cannot transcend racial divides, historical limitations, or knowledge constraints. Combat is their only form of communication, pain is the easiest thing to understand, and blood is the best trade currency.

No one can transcend this fate, not Cha Huan, not the Glorious Grand Ancestor, not the Smile, not anyone.

Except...

Except...

"Revenge?" Le Yu lightly shook his head, "You're just here to steal the Water of Mutation."

Sisisi was unfazed, "Who wouldn't want such a glorious artifact as the Extreme Divine Weapon? Look at these two Hydra scimitars of mine, made entirely of meteorite halo mineral, but ultimately they're just Divine Armaments that need to be reforged every few years, possibly taking dozens of reforgings to create a useful weapon."

Made entirely of meteorite halo mineral?

Le Yu estimated the size of these two scimitars, pondering whether he could snatch them and make Yan Yi work for him for life.

However, upon hearing Sisisi's words, Le Yu sneered, "And what if you steal it? Do you think you can leave with the Water of Mutation? Of course, you could try swallowing it directly—at most, it just adds a step for me to dig it out of your heart."

"Not necessarily," Sisisi smiled, drawing a small circle on the ground with her scimitar.

Le Yu was momentarily stunned, but then realized something, his monkey face changed drastically. In a flash, he turned into a shadow, rushing forward without a care for the threat of the Hydra scimitars, his hands like crescent moon blades going straight for Sisisi!

But it was too late; Sisisi heavily struck the 'circle' she had drawn, and it collapsed with a series of plops—the hall below was an underground river!

Sisisi casually threw the Water of Mutation into it, swinging her Hydra scimitars to fend off Le Yu's frenzied attack!

"What are you so angry about? Oh right, you've already betrayed the Demon Race and joined the humans. Is the Water of Mutation the reward humans promised you? They promised you could become a real human by drinking the Water of Mutation, so you'd never have to wear that disgraceful, shameful, lowly monkey skin again?"

"But didn't you move that masked man away? Isn't that mask also an Extreme Divine Weapon? Once you wear that mask, humans will surely consider you one of them, maybe just occasionally ask you to perform some monkey tricks for amusement, but I'm sure you wouldn't mind."

Because Le Yu was not Wuzhiqi, he was forced to fight Sisisi to a standstill; but because he wasn't Wuzhiqi, he was not enraged by such insults, "You betrayed the alliance and left the battlefield, if not for the president pursuing the enemy away from here, how dare you take the opportunity to steal the sheath's Divine Weapon?"

"Same to you," Sisisi said, "and I wasn't as despicable and shameless as you—I fulfilled my promise, dealt with a Pillar of Martial Arts, and then came back to take my deserved reward."

"You dealt with a Pillar of Martial Arts?"

"It wasn't really dealt with; he went mad himself, turned demon, saved me the trouble. By the way, do you really want to betray the Demon Race? If you don't go help, Smile might really be beaten to death."

Really, could there be such good news?

Though secretly delighted, Le Yu mocked, "Lie! How could anyone in Yanjing contend with a Behemoth? He's an earthly immortal, a manifesting divine being, the strongest Demon Emperor from ancient to present! He could crush a dozen of someone like Cha Huan with one hand, who could kill him?"

"It's true!" Perhaps thinking he could persuade Wuzhiqi, Sisisi seriously explained, "When I left, I took a glance; he seemed defenseless under the joint assault of Cha Huan, Yu Ke, and Xie Chenyuan. Without reinforcements, your Demon Race's last emperor is really going to be beaten to death."

"Then why don't you help!" Le Yu replied righteously like an internet warrior, "Don't you Nagas also want to weaken humans? If you go to help, Smile could surely counter-kill the three Pillars of Martial Arts. Even if you just throw a stone from 800 meters away, you might be able to tilt the scales!"

"Wuzhiqi, do you have to make me admit to being a malicious ally just because you've become a base traitor?" Sisisi couldn't help but coldly laugh, "Cha Huan and the others are certainly human prodigies, but to us Nagas, Smile is also not to be taken lightly! Once Smile really gains power in Glorious, he'll continually leech off humans, maybe further achieve immortality!"

"Once Smile succeeds, our Nagas' next step is to conspire with all parties to assassinate Smile. Now that Yanjing is in chaos, human civil war imminent, and Smile surrounded, it's the best outcome for us. Why would I help alleviate Smile's crisis?"

"Living in scheming and conspiracy all day long, fits perfectly with you bunch of sewer scum's habits."

"Whoever is the ruler of the continent is the enemy of the Nagas, it's that simple," Sisisi paid no mind to Le Yu's taunts, "The Nagas must not fail!"

She had no intention to continue entangling here, whether it was Smile returning victorious or Yanjing's Martial Pillars coming to the rescue, it would be over for her then, "Wuzhiqi, I just came back to collect the spoils, why must you hinder me?"

"Hand over the Water of Mutation, and I'll let you leave!"

"Impossible, the Water of Mutation has already been taken away by my compatriots. How about this, there are still four sheaths here, and I don't know who has the Divine Weapon, you can pick any two to take!"

"Then leave the Hydra scimitars, and I'll let you go!"

"Wuzhiqi, you're as crafty as a human, just without the human skin!"

As Le Yu and Sisisi fought fiercely, totally focused on their opponent, they didn't notice that the other living beings in the underground hall started moving.

One of Miete Yaya's fingers twitched.

Cai Nu exhaled a long breath.

Feng Lv's eyelids trembled slightly.

'Qin Leyin' opened his eyes.
