Chapter 293 - 292: A Moon Eater’s Rebirth
Neither the Burning Moon God Emperor nor the Yama God Emperor fully believed what Chi Wuyao said. Maybe her ambition to start a war was real, but the reasons behind offering them so many benefits were definitely more than what she claimed.
Maybe the pill that boosts cultivation had something hidden, like poison, or perhaps the profound skill that grants perfect control over darkness came with some hidden restrictions or deadly drawbacks.
In the end, even though her offer was incredibly tempting, none of them were simple-minded. After all, anyone who could become a God Emperor had to possess immense restraint. They suppressed their greed and desires and silently watched Chi Wuyao, waiting for her to finish.
On the other hand, aside from Fen Daoqi, who watched with cold eyes, the others had their gazes fixed on Yun Wuji and Chi Wuyao. The benefits she promised seemed almost unreal, to the point that, even if it was a trap, they found themselves willing to take the risk.
’The fish has taken the bait~’ Chi Wuyao licked her lips as she thought to herself. She pointed at Fen Daoqi and said, "I’m guessing neither of you God Emperors is foolish enough to believe every word I say, so this time, I’ll choose one subordinate from each of you."
"Of course, even if you wanted to, I wouldn’t help you this time. After all, who knows if you’ll suddenly change your mind after getting all those benefits, right~?"
"Master?" The Burning Moon God Emperor frowned deeply at her choice. Although Fan Daoqi was only ranked seventh among the Moon Eaters in strength, he was the brain of the Burning Moon Realm, the schemer who not only plotted for the realm but also helped the God Emperor defeat his siblings and claim the throne back then.
He couldn’t risk anything happening to him!
Was this Chi Wuyao’s scheme? Did she want to get rid of his right hand?
Fan Daoqi narrowed his eyes as he stared at Chi Wuyao’s fog-covered face and slowly walked over. Many thoughts clashed in his mind, but he didn’t turn her down. Instead, he said solemnly, "This Daoqi will be in your care, then."
"Master, are you sure?" The Burning Moon God Emperor instinctively reached out to stop him, but froze midway and asked through sound transmission.
Fan Daoqi stood before Chi Wuyao and replied via sound transmission, "I understand what my king is worried about, but the chance of her trying to harm us, at least right now, is low. We’re in the Soul Stealing Realm, surrounded by the nine witches and the Devil Queen. If she had any ulterior motives toward me, we wouldn’t be able to stop her anyway."
