道罗邪皇子 (邪神之道 B5)

Chapter 820

"..."

Due to the actions of the fiendish young man that had sowed a seed of doubt in the hearts of the Moments the unrelenting attacks against Xuan Nuo has died down a bit giving him a generous amount of time to breath.

[...]

[...]

Although they share a common enemy none of the Moments that chose to attack Xuan Nuo felt any sense of comfort being near each other as the question of when their peers will decide to stab them in the back is an everlasting thought that is etched upon their souls.

For the Moments who died from the betrayal of those that were supposed to be their comrades they were even more wary of their peers at this time and are even less willing to have "allies" by their side in this life.

To these individuals the idea of the enemy of their enemy being a friend is but a childish way of thinking. In their eyes only a fool would choose to place their trust upon a complete stranger that might appear intimate at first.

In the age these Moments had lived in the cultivation world was a place that is constantly filled with tales of betrayal and backstabbing schemes being meticulously put into order.

One could say the act of betraying one's friends and expecting them to do the same is almost second nature for the practitioners who had survived that cultivation world's cruelties.

In fact they couldn't even begin to count the number of times in which they would hear the story of a disciple choosing to kill their own master or parent for the sake of obtaining greater power as the concept of justice and doing what's right is a foreign ideology to their twisted minds.

To such individuals all form of cooperation is only temporary, they are not meant to last forever as the stability of such relationships are as fragile as glass when dropped against the floor.

Dealing with the fatigue inducing thoughts of how such relationships would play out badly in the future is something that each of them are accustomed to and are fully aware of how taxing it is on the mind.

As such relationships that can only be maintained by having mutual gains while constantly being on the lookout for when the other side would play trickery are better off never formed in the first place.

"..."

Looking to the young man Xuan Nuo's lips form a frown.

There is something strange about their person.

But it is difficult to say just what it is that's odd about them because even if one peels off a layer of mystery from their body they would only find another puzzle beneath the first.

Eventually one would realize that they would only gain more questions than answers from their attempts at unraveling the truth that may or may not lie at the bottom depths of this person's appearance.

[** **** ***** ******** **** ** *****, ** **** ** **** **** * ******* **** **** **** **** ** ***, **** *** **** *** ** ******** ** **** ****.]

Without letting Ye Gui Feng direct too much focus on the thought that appeared in his head the young man chants in a complex language.

*...!!!* a strange sound goes off and beneath the young man's feet a giant rift capable of swallowing an entire mountain is cut open.

*Siiiii!* the eerie sound of a serpent's hiss is accompanied by the pungent scent of blood giving off the impression that a deep pool of iron lies within the dark depths of this rift.
