Chapter 650 Are You Teasing Me? (2)
Hearing this, White Ghost remained silent.
Although the six of them were in the same team, they usually did not submit to each other. Most of the time, they acted alone and rarely gathered together to work. Now that they were gathered together, if not for the goal of becoming Saints, they would have fought long ago.
“I say… let’s not go too far. The mission is more important.”
Just as everyone was arguing, a burly figure with a pitch-black ghost mask said indifferently. As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding noise immediately stopped. The gazes they looked at the burly figure were filled with fear.
He was the captain of the team, and his code name was Black Devil. He was also the existence closest to a First Revolution Saint among the members of the team.
Even without the reward of this mission, as long as there was a period of time, he would be able to step into the Saint realm with his own cultivation.
His strength was already enough to break through the 91st Heaven. He was only nine heaves away from becoming a Sage!
However, the strongest among the others was below the 50th Heaven Realm. Even if they joined forces, they were not the Black Devil’s match at all.
“Boss, we…”
“Shut up!”
Without waiting for everyone to say anything, the Black Ghost said in a low voice, “This Four Square Regions… I don’t think it’s simple. Now that we’re about to enter, everyone, keep quiet and be careful! White Ghost, go to the Gate of Fear first. I’ll find the traces of the traitor. Let’s split into two groups. If we encounter anything, contact each other through voice transmission.”
“Understood!”
After receiving the order, everyone immediately shouted in a low voice, and a trace of joy flashed across their eyes.
The mission at the Gate of Fear was very easy for the few of them, but tracking down that traitor… would probably waste a lot of time. Therefore, as soon as the Black Devil finished speaking, they split up and rushed in the direction of the Four Square Regions.
But soon, the Black Devil’s figure appeared again. He looked at the few streams of light that flashed in the distant void and raised his eyebrows. He said indifferently to the empty void, “Come out.”
“Hehe… Your perception is really sharp. Looks like you’re not far from stepping into the Saint realm.”
In the void, a ball of black fog appeared and finally condensed into a figure. However, this figure was completely black and only two blood-red eyes could be seen.
“Black Robe? What are you doing here!”
The Black Devil narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, “Don’t you know that it’s still a critical moment? If you act casually, it’s easy to attract the attention of others!”
“Hehe… What are you afraid of? I’m the Son of Destiny, and so are you. What’s there to worry about if we join forces?”
The black fog figure chuckled and said, “Moreover, we have the Lord of Darkness as our backer. Under this tribulation, we will definitely succeed. You… are the Son of Destiny after all. I didn’t expect you to become like this after being a slave for so many years. Your essence, energy, and spirit… are about to be obliterated!”
“Hmph, spit it out!”
The Black Devil snorted and said in a low voice.
“Heh, you’re really impatient. I came here this time to tell you something. Your operation this time is bound to fail because the kid you’re facing isn’t simple!”
Black Robe chuckled and said, “I’m telling you this information on account of our previous cooperation, so if you want to save your life, run quickly. Of course, don’t go back to look for that Lord of Fear. That guy… Tsk tsk, how should I put it? I think he’s much worse than the Lord of Darkness. You have no future with him.”
“What do you mean?”
“What do I mean? Don’t you understand what I’m saying? You people are only cannon fodder sent by the Lord of Fear! Listen to my advice and run quickly. My judgment is not wrong!”
Black Robe smiled and said, “Let me tell you, the Lord of Fear you followed provoked that guy. My guess is… he’s most likely going to be unlucky.”
“Are you serious?”
When the Black Devil heard this, he finally asked seriously.
“Of course. I think very highly of you.”
Black Robe leaned close to the Black Devil and whispered into his ear, “I won’t tell ordinary people!”
When the Black Devil heard this, he frowned and pondered. After a long while, he sighed and looked up at Black Robe. He frowned and asked, “You mean… you want me to leave with you now and join the Lord of Darkness?”
“No, no, no… Of course not! I want you to personally deal with the other five members of your team and bring them along to join that kid!”
Black Robe’s laughter continued, “This is a pledge of allegiance. If you join him, with that kid’s personality, he will most likely give you a way out. At that time, you have to serve him well. One day, when I can’t survive under the Darkness Lord, I’ll join you. At that time… you have to put in a good word for him in front of that guy.”
“Why don’t you come with me?”
“Me? Forget it. Ahem, to be honest, before… one of my clones had a small misunderstanding with him. Now, I’m afraid that I’ll be killed by him if I go over, so I’ll stay under the Lord of Darkness for a while longer. When the time is right, I’ll personally go find him.”
Black Robe coughed lightly, and a hint of helplessness appeared in his blood-red eyes. “My allegiance is not something that can be achieved with a few puppets… Sigh, speaking of which, I’m also unlucky. That clone was actually bewitched by the Power of Fear. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so troublesome!”
