Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 1506 - 1259: Happy Cooperation (2)

He thought that once the Eternal Empress encountered experts from the Divine World or the Immortal Domain, she would not necessarily be their match.But now, he realized that the Eternal Empress was not just a Mountain King. On the contrary, she possessed various skills, such as Alchemy and Artifact Refining.

Duan Gujin wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, realizing that he had completely underestimated the Eternal Empress before.

"No wonder I previously thought that the Eternal Empress couldn't possibly have set up an Array in her own palace. I even speculated that the Array was most likely enforced by other Divine World Martial Artists. It turns out that the Array was probably arranged by the Eternal Empress herself! However, it seems that the Eternal Empress isn't particularly skilled in setting up Arrays! Or perhaps the Eternal Empress believed there wouldn't be any Divine World Martial Artists infiltrating her palace, so she only set up a simple Array instead of a complex one!"

"Two friends, let's strike a deal. You help me eliminate the Eternal Empress, and then I'll hand over this Dark Weapon to you. I can also give you all the Dark Weapons I have on hand! We can cooperate happily!"

Chen Xiaoxiao said.

Duan Gujin quickly communicated secretly with Wu Xiuqing, and she replied, "We can cooperate with him. With some luck, we can eliminate the Eternal Empress and also get that Ancient Demon Saint Treasure!"

"Correct!"

Duan Gujin exhaled and then said to Chen Xiaoxiao ahead, "Friend ahead, we can cooperate. The two of us will do our utmost to assist you and help you defeat the Eternal Empress!"

"Very well, follow me. I'll take you back to the Eternal Dynasty! However, the Eternal Dynasty's defenses have become much tighter now, and it's difficult for us to get in immediately. We need to wait for a while before we can enter the Eternal Dynasty!"

Chen Xiaoxiao said.

"Oh, then how many days do you think it will take for us to enter the Eternal Dynasty? We can't stay here for long!"

Duan Gujin asked.

"That's uncertain; it all depends on the Eternal Empress's mood! If she's in a good mood, we might be able to enter the Eternal Dynasty soon! If her mood is bad, we'll have to wait longer! The Eternal Empress's emotions change very quickly and are hard to fathom. In any case, I can't figure out her true intentions!"

Chen Xiaoxiao answered.

Duan Gujin recalled the memories he forcibly read about the Eternal Empress. After a while, he realized that, as Chen Xiaoxiao said, the Eternal Empress was truly a Demon with emotions that changed rapidly and were hard to understand.

"Let's act with him! I'm eager to witness the prowess of the Eternal Empress!"

Wu Xiuqing said.

"Alright!"

Duan Gujin immediately agreed to Chen Xiaoxiao's suggestion.

"Then I'll walk ahead of you!"

Chen Xiaoxiao said.

"Alright, friend, please lead the way!"

Duan Gujin let Chen Xiaoxiao lead the way.

Three hours later, they arrived at a Demon Clan Tribe very close to the Eternal Dynasty.

Chen Xiaoxiao took them to a hidden small village outside the Demon Clan Tribe and led them both into the basement.

"Chen Xiaoxiao, you're indeed very thorough in your planning!"

Duan Gujin immediately felt admiration for Chen Xiaoxiao.

"Of course, with such a deep grudge, I don't want to die at the hands of the Eternal Empress. I've always told myself that one day, I will make the Eternal Empress pay the price she deserves! Until she's paid that price, I will never die!"

When speaking of the Eternal Empress, Chen Xiaoxiao's expression became particularly ferocious.

Duan Gujin touched his nose, knowing that Chen Xiaoxiao was cooperating with them because he believed they could help him deal with the Eternal Empress.

"Without love, there is no hate!"

Finally, Chen Xiaoxiao said softly.

After seeing Chen Xiaoxiao leave, Wu Xiuqing quickly asked Duan Gujin secretly.

"Duan Gujin, do you think we can trust Chen Xiaoxiao?"

"Some of his words can be trusted, and others cannot!"

Duan Gujin replied.

"How will I know which of his words can be trusted and which cannot?"

Wu Xiuqing seemed confused, feeling completely at a loss.

Duan Gujin touched his nose and replied, "That's up to intuition! I've been closely observing his facial expressions, eye movements, speech tone, and heart rate. I noticed that some of what he said was a lie, while other parts were true!"

"That's too hard. I have no idea how to judge other people's thoughts. What should I do?"

Wu Xiuqing furrowed her brow slightly, saying.

"I have a straightforward method: you need to continuously improve your own cultivation. Once you have enough power, you can completely crush the opponent. You won't need to think about which of their words are true or false. The simplest and most direct method is to capture them and forcibly read their memory. This way, you won't need to know what they're thinking at all!"

"Right!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xiuqing's eyes lit up instantly.

She knew her biggest weakness was interacting with other living creatures. If she had to observe other creatures' facial expressions, eye movements, and heartbeats, she'd feel worse than death.

Duan Gujin's suggested method sounded the hardest, but she understood that it was the simplest.

Chen Xiaoxiao left them both in the basement for a while, waiting for his update.

Duan Gujin and Wu Xiuqing went into seclusion in the basement, and after three days, they heard Chen Xiaoxiao calling out.

"You two, we can enter the Eternal Dynasty now! My spy tells me the Eternal Empress has left. Once we enter the Eternal Dynasty, we'll head directly to the imperial palace where her precious son is!"

"Okay!"

Duan Gujin and Wu Xiuqing followed Chen Xiaoxiao out and soon reached the outer edge of the Eternal Dynasty.

They saw Chen Xiaoxiao throw a Dark Weapon out towards the edge, then a small spatial crack appeared before them.

"Quick, get in!"

Chen Xiaoxiao hurriedly said.

"Alright!"

The two of them used the Space Escape Technique to pass through the tiny spatial crack.

At first, Duan Gujin worried that this might be a trap.

Therefore, he was always highly prepared for immediate battle.

Once through, he glanced around and realized they were already inside a large courtyard.

This courtyard was surrounded by high walls, and he immediately deduced that the high walls must have been set up by Chen Xiaoxiao beforehand.

"This Chen Xiaoxiao said before that he knew how to set up Arrays. Now it seems, he wasn't lying!" Duan Gujin thought to himself.

Chen Xiaoxiao quickly told them, "Once you're here, don't wander around. Conceal any Qi on you and stay here first. I'll go gather some intelligence and return to find you! You can stay in that courtyard ahead!"

"Alright!"

Duan Gujin promptly agreed.

Chen Xiaoxiao quickly left, and the two of them moved into a very simple courtyard ahead.

To figure out their current location, Duan Gujin cautiously and continuously extended his Divine Sense.

After a while, he judged their approximate location.

"Is it safe here?"

Wu Xiuqing asked somewhat nervously.

"For now, it's safe. We are currently in an inconspicuous corner of the Eternal Dynasty where there are only a few Demon households. Their strength is not strong, so they shouldn't discover us!"

Duan Gujin replied.

"That's good!"

Wu Xiuqing exhaled a breath, and her mood relaxed slightly.

Duan Gujin immediately entered a state of rest, patiently waiting for Chen Xiaoxiao's return.
