The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 687 - 195 The Love Mind Games of the Divine Spirits
Dongfang Yao had also never experienced such a thing before. Although he felt it was a bit unreasonable, he didn’t think too much about it.
"I am the foremost God under the heavens, could it be that I would be outwitted by someone?"
Feeling weak was perhaps just a misconception ensuing from the shattering of his Divine Sense projection.
It must be so.
Lin Yun: "..."
You make me seem so naive.
He had prepared how to bamboozle Dongfang Yao, yet before he could start, Dongfang Yao had rationalized the matter himself, even more convincingly than what Lin Yun had intended to suggest.
Fine then, I’ll just lie back. A mature Sun God has to learn to deceive himself.
After recuperating for a day, Dongfang Yao no longer felt as feeble, and finally decided to set out for the Outer Realm.
This was also related to Lin Yun’s tireless nagging.
Otherwise, Dongfang Yao would probably watch another day of dancing, then lie down for another day.
Lin Yun was eager to see what this world was like; with each passing day, he almost forgot he was dreaming.
If not for his naturally cautious disposition, constantly reminding himself during his daily cultivation, "I am dreaming, I am dreaming."
He didn’t want to wake up yet, nor did he want to miss this rare opportunity to explore the story of ancient times, but he also didn’t want to become mired in the dream, which is why he felt a bit rushed for time.
Having been entangled by great evil the day before yesterday, today he absolutely wanted to explore properly.
Under Lin Yun’s seduction, Dongfang Yao left Sun Island and flew towards Guanghan Palace.
Having his projection shattered by Su’e last time, Dongfang Yao didn’t feel at all that he had made an enemy of Su’e. Wasn’t it just that both of them had dispersed each other’s projection once? It was just right to even the score.
Last time Su’e had been thinking of going to the Outer Realm with him, so if he brought it up proactively this time, she would certainly be very happy.
A cheerful Dongfang Yao made no effort to conceal his aura as he headed straight for Guanghan Palace.
But what he didn’t know was that with his aura drawing nearer, Su’e was already deliberating whether to flee or to take a risk and kill Dongfang Yao.
She had just dispersed Dongfang Yao’s Divine Sense projection two days ago, and now the real Dongfang Yao had come knocking on her door. Wasn’t this a sign of seeking a decisive battle to the death?
That was exactly the approach Dongfang Yao took with the Great Mist—despite not having offended him so grievously, Great Mist was directly blocked and killed by Dongfang Yao and his people.
Dongfang Yao, that guy is ruthless and not talkative!
After much thought, Su’e felt that it was better to play it safe, but she couldn’t let go of the grandeur of the Moon God.
Su’e took out the Moon Water Spirit Pearl and transformed it into her likeness. This pearl, a treasure she acquired by chance, was filled with Taiyin Divine Power; moreover, it contained a mystery within, able to nurture Spiritual Energy by itself.
With the Moon Water Spirit Pearl as the nucleus for her transformation, she was confident Dongfang Yao would be unable to spot the difference, and the avatar would possess a certain combat ability.
As for her true body...
Better to run as a mark of respect.
When Dongfang Yao arrived at Guanghan Palace, he saw clouds and mist rising, with Su’e standing amidst them, exuding the presence of a Divine Spirit.
Lin Yun, seeing this Great Mist, felt a sense of familiarity.
Wasn’t this the same Great Mist he had encountered in the Moon God Ruins?
In these two days, Su’e had completely refined the Great Mist. Although the original Great Mist was not particularly strong in defense or attack, it specialized in transformations. Combined with Su’e’s Divine Power, she could easily create an array strong enough to trap a Divine Spirit.
However, a God like the Sun God would not be trapped by the Great Mist. If the Great Mist itself had been slain by the Sun God, what of its remnants?
And as for the Divine Spirits weaker than herself, with her own strength and her treasures, it was not yet determined who would kill whom.
But such a somewhat underwhelming entity, in the hands of Su’e and combined with her treasure incarnation, was incredibly suitable.
With the assistance of the Great Mist, even the Sun God wouldn’t be able to see through her illusion.
"Dongfang Yao, what brings you here!" Su’e, controlling the avatar, said forcefully, looking very tough—who would know that her true body had already fled?
"You mentioned a few days ago about going to the Outer Realm together, and I felt today was a good day, so here I am to find you," Dongfang Yao replied.
Su’e: "..."
So we’re not bringing up our fight at all?
I attacked his Divine Officer and shattered his projection, and Dongfang Yao isn’t the least bit angry?
Recalling Dongfang Yao’s inexplicable spread of rumors, Su’e suddenly felt alarmed.
Could this simple-minded Sun God be infatuated with me?
Upon this thought, many things suddenly made sense.
Exchanging the Primordial Chaos Bead for intelligence was the first step, allowing her to gain some insight into the Path of Time.
In reality, with the assistance of the Wind God, Dongfang Yao did not need the Primordial Chaos Bead to absorb the Great Mist Divine Power; he could probably defeat the Great Mist himself.
Yet he insisted on borrowing it, and after draining the bead of Chaos Qi, did not destroy it. As long as it was replenished with Chaos Qi, the Primordial Chaos Bead had the potential to recover.
What followed was the opportunity for him to naturally join her on an adventure to the Outer Realm, to collect Chaos Qi.
Such a clever scheme, a cunning plot!
I never saw through it, having thought Dongfang Yao was dull.
"Ha, even a grand Sun God has been bewitched by my charm? But if you fancy me, you should at least show some resolve. With these petty tricks, do you think I would fall for them?"
Su’e thought again of how she had been frightened into fleeing by Dongfang Yao’s sudden visit and felt a surge of irritation.
Can we have more sincerity and fewer tricks?
But if you played tricks first, don’t blame me for being ruthless!
With that thought, a myriad of schemes flashed through Su’e’s mind on how to let the world know Dongfang Yao admired her, and she quickly formed a plan in her heart.
She still wore her aloof expression and said, "A few days ago, I kindly wanted to help you, but you didn’t cherish that opportunity and even shattered my projection.
Today, if you want to invite me to join you, shouldn’t there be an explanation?"
Dongfang Yao couldn’t help scratching his head, finding women truly troublesome.
"What kind of explanation do you want?"
"Apologize to me."
"Impossible."
"Then I won’t go. The Outer Realm is dangerous, and if you go alone and encounter a Chaos storm, you’ll either die or be skinned alive."
Upon hearing Su’e’s words, Dongfang Yao’s stubbornness kicked in.
Woman, do I have to pamper you?
He was about to say that if Su’e wouldn’t go, he would find Tai Bai, with whom he had acquaintances all over the world, and it wouldn’t be hard to find someone willing to explore the Outer Realm together.
And Tai Bai was the Divine Spirit most keen on exploring the Outer Realm. She had acquired many treasures and Divine Skills there and would likely agree immediately if someone invited her to explore the Outer Realm.
Before Dongfang Yao could speak, Lin Yun hurriedly stopped him.
What kind of iron-headed brat would talk about adventure with another goddess in front of one?
Although doing so would indeed create an irreconcilable feud with Su’e, that would be all, as the grudge would not be deep-seated.
Only those who have loved can understand the unforgettable yearning.
Lin Yun timely prevented Dongfang Yao from speaking and offered him an alternate way of thinking.
"Su’e is actually worried about my safety but is too proud to show it? Women, truly not forthright at all!"
With this thought, Dongfang Yao instantly felt much more at ease.
But an apology was out of the question; how could he possibly bow to a woman!
Can the sun submit to the moon?
Qian is above, Kun is below. This is the natural order. How can it be reversed?
Knowing Dongfang Yao’s thoughts, Lin Yun could only scoff internally at the inexperienced fellow. Ah, he has no idea of the delights when yin and yang are reversed.
Well, he can’t coerce Dongfang Yao to apologize to Su’e. It’s his first time being a Heart Demon and he lacks experience, but he knows that one should go with the flow of the human heart rather than against it.
So every time he spoke to Dongfang Yao, he used his own tone, and his words were always in line with Dongfang Yao’s temperament, and with Dongfang Yao being so naive, it would likely take years for him to detect his presence.
Perhaps by then, Lin Yun would have completed all he set out to do.
Dongfang Yao guessed that Su’e really wanted to go to the Outer Realm with him but was too proud to say so. Pleased with himself, he spoke more gently.
Originally planning to go with Tai Bai, now with Su’e on board, there was no need to consider Tai Bai any longer.
He revealed a proud smile and said, "I know what you’re thinking, and you should understand my intent as well."
Dongfang Yao felt that his previous actions were obvious enough for Su’e to notice. If she hadn’t, he believed that after speaking up to this point, she should understand.
I already know you like me, so just come out and tell me directly, no need to hide anymore.
Hearing Dongfang Yao’s words, Su’e felt quite smug inside.
This could be considered a confession from Dongfang Yao, huh? Tsk, this man is truly obsessed with saving face, never straightforward. But considering that Dongfang Yao had always been this way, getting him to say these words was quite a feat.
Nevermind, she’d let him save a little face.
And incidentally give him a chance to be properly assessed.
"No need for more words; I’ll join you to the Outer Realm this time, after all, you are supposed to help me repair the Primordial Chaos Bead."
Su’e strongly hinted that she was going just for the Primordial Chaos Bead, while also giving him a chance, hoping he would behave and please her, the goddess.
Seeing Su’e agree, Dongfang Yao felt an even greater sense of triumph.
Heh, even a goddess can’t escape my palm!
The situation had developed to this point and was roughly regarded as letting bygones be bygones, albeit with some complications and misunderstandings beyond the norm, but the two gods eventually agreed to explore the Outer Realm together.
Su’e unnoticeably summoned her true form back and took some of her most precious treasures, deciding to set out to the Outer Realm with Dongfang Yao.
The two great gods, both in their original forms, were stunningly beautiful and cool. At their first glance upon meeting, they stood proud and arrogant, seemingly indifferent to each other, yet both were planning their own little schemes.
"The Outer Realm should not be fatal to us as long as we are careful. You just need to be cautious later on; if we encounter any danger, just stand behind me," Dongfang Yao said haughtily to Su’e, his concern coming off awkwardly, but luckily Su’e knew how to pick out the important parts. After recognizing his care, she also said with pride, "Don’t underestimate me; I won’t be a burden if there’s real danger."
Is this her way of saying she wants to fight alongside me?
The delight in Dongfang Yao’s heart was even greater than watching dances for three days, but he still kept his cool, saying, "Suit yourself!"
With their conversation over, the two soared higher and higher, and when they reached a great height, a white light suddenly streaked towards them.
"I heard the two of you are heading to the Outer Realm; may I join you?"
