Chapter 1240 - 1240: Who Exactly Is Lin Wudi?

"Li Hua, don't be reckless! This time, the Three Elders have sacrificed thousands of years of their lifespan to send us here!"

Wu Ge glanced disgruntledly at the woman beside him.

This woman is simply a battle maniac, completely unsuitable for this mission.

If it weren't for the fact that, including them, there were only eight berserkers left in the Holy Lands, she wouldn't have been sent along.

"Enough talk. The Second Elder is my father. Do you think I don't understand what cost they've borne?"

Li Hua retorted displeasedly, then began to look around.

Wu Ge sighed silently and said no more.

This woman is really not someone you can mess with.

Before entering the Forbidden Sand Sea, she was already a genius at the banished immortal level.

It was to accompany her father that she came to the Forbidden Sand Sea.

In Wu Ge's eyes, this behavior is no different from madness.

Who in their right mind would choose to go to the Forbidden Sand Sea for no reason?

"Something isn't right…"

As Wu Ge was lost in his thoughts, he heard Li Hua speaking to herself in a loud voice.

Initially, Wu Ge paid no attention, but after investigating for a moment, his expression changed.

"According to the Elders, this place should be filled with ghastly qi, so why has it disappeared?"

Wu Ge suspiciously flew up into the sky, surveying the surroundings.

"Over here!"

Li Hua's nose twitched as she suddenly harnessed the Tribulation Thunder Thought and dashed wildly in a direction.

Wu Ge had no choice but to follow after her.

An hour later, Wu Ge's expression turned extremely grim.

Because, he saw clear signs of battle ahead.

That was the kind of destruction only the power of the Third Tribulation could cause.

"Ten Kings?"

Wu Ge's heart skipped a beat.

The Ten Kings were the rulers of the Stone Gate Realm, how could they fall in such a place?

Only then did he raise his head, belatedly looking toward the Light Tower in the sky.

He hadn't expected that just one glance would make him inhale sharply.

In the sky above, representing the Third Tribulation, there was only one solitary white dot left.

This indicated that nine of the Ten Kings had already fallen!

"Damn it! Could it be Lei Gun, that bastard, went against the Elders' orders and attacked the Ten Kings?"

Wu Ge started to agree with Li Hua's claim that Lei Gun was a fool.

If the Ten Kings have fallen, all their plans are ruined.

Because those from the Yin Soul Realm, like them, were covered in ghastly qi and couldn't control the Ten Kings Command.

Without the Ten Kings, how would they open the entrance to the Yin Soul Realm and bring about the Holy Lands' return!

"Hahaha, I said Lei Gun was a fool, and he actually got himself killed! Even the Tribulation Thought Treasure is shattered!"

As Wu Ge's heart was filled with anxiety, he heard Li Hua laughing loudly.

The implication of her words nearly made Wu Ge's heart jump out of his chest.

He quickly flew over, only to encounter the scene he least wanted to see.

One of the berserkers, Lei Gun, had died a most gruesome death, with Lei Gun's body fragments scattered everywhere.

If it weren't for the aura emanating from the body fragments, he wouldn't have been able to determine it was Lei Gun.

"Nine Kings and Lei Gun are both dead, could they have killed each other? Lei Gun, that bastard! His death doesn't matter, but the Elders' plan is completely ruined!"

Wu Ge cursed, wishing he could drag Lei Gun back to whip his corpse!

For a moment, he was a bit lost.

Originally, according to the Elders' plan, they were to unite with Lei Gun to subdue the Ten Kings, make them use the Ten Kings Command, and open the entrance to the Yin Soul Realm.

But now, the Ten Kings have died, leaving only one remaining!

"What should we do now…"

"Nonsense! What should we do? Obviously, we should go to the nearest town and ask what exactly happened! My father said, besides the Ten Kings, there's the Hidden King. If necessary, we'll have the Hidden King open the Yin Soul Realm entrance for us!"

Li Hua interrupted Wu Ge's words, cursing as she flew out of Tianqian Valley.

Wu Ge wished he could slap himself for forgetting such a crucial detail.

In a critical moment, he wasn't as reliable as Li Hua, the madwoman.

He took to the sky with an embarrassed expression, following behind Li Hua.

Two days later, they arrived at the nearest town to Tianqian Valley.

Upon entering the town, before they could grab a few tongues for information, they heard discussions around them.

"Have you heard? The Three Hidden Kings have challenged Lin Wudi!"

"Of course, how could I not have heard? We've already arranged to spend Sand Sea Crystals and invite the Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor to take us to watch the battle!"

"Tch, not to belittle you, but how can you, a small Integrate Dao, dare to go watch the battle? A casual ripple from them could kill you!"

"As if you aren't an Integrate Dao as well!"

"Everyone, save your Sand Sea Crystals. Apart from the Hidden King's territory, Lin Wudi has destroyed all ghostly realms in the Stone Gate Realm, so there won't be any place to mine Sand Sea Crystals in the future."

"Well, if there's no place, there's no place! If we can leave the Forbidden Sand Sea with Lin Wudi, Sand Sea Crystals won't matter!"

"Are you stupid? Sand Sea Crystals are even more valuable outside!"

Initially, they spoke only of the Three Hidden Kings challenging Lin Wudi, but then they began to anticipate new lives after leaving the Forbidden Sand Sea.

Wu Ge and Li Hua exchanged glances, almost believing these people were shrouded in an Illusory Realm, dreaming during the daytime, or having lost their minds.

Leaving the Forbidden Sand Sea?

What were these people talking about?

"Friend, you just mentioned the Three Hidden Kings challenging Lin Wudi? Aren't there four Hidden Kings? Why hasn't the other one challenged him?"

Wu Ge signaled to Li Hua, then flew into the inn, joining the discussion.

A roomful of Integrate Dao participants glanced at Wu Ge and Li Hua.

Seeing Li Hua's formidable build and well-developed chest muscles, their lips twitched.

However, knowing these two held the status of Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors, none dared to mock openly.

"Not really? You didn't hear that Eastern King, one of the Hidden Kings, has already been slain by Lin Wudi?"

At this moment, one Integrate Dao, as if discovering a new continent, looked at Wu Ge with surprise.

The rest of the Integrate Dao had their eyes lit up one by one.

These days, it's rare to find someone who doesn't know this news.

Now having the chance to show off intelligence to a Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor, each one was somewhat excited.

Wu Ge placidly took out a handful of Sand Sea Crystals, "My junior sister and I have been in seclusion, unaware of any major events outside, so we ask everyone to tell us!"

As he spoke, he shouted to the shopkeeper, "Bring out the best you have here, it's on me!"

The roomful of Integrate Dao rejoiced greatly.

"Hahaha! Sure thing, sure thing! What does the senior want to know?"

"Fantastic! What do you want to know, feel free to ask."

"Senior, have a seat here!"

In the Stone Gate Realm, the most scarce items are spirit fruits and spirit nectar, which these Integrate Dao can hardly afford, merely pooling together for occasional showboating.

Wu Ge's generosity immediately won everyone's favor.

Li Hua sneered, inwardly looking down further on these Stone Gate Realm bastards.

This bunch of trash would have died a hundred different ways in the Yin Soul Realm.

"You just mentioned Lin Wudi killing Eastern King, one of the Hidden Kings. Who is Lin Wudi?"

Wu Ge wasn't thinking much and soon became one of the group with these Integrate Dao.

"Has the senior never heard of Lin Wudi?"

The Integrate Dao exchanged glances, as though feeling it was quite lonely not knowing about Lin Wudi.

"Hehe, we've been in seclusion, you see…"

Wu Ge responded casually.

"I see! Let me tell you…"

The Integrate Dao began to chatter away, recounting the tales of Lin Wudi.
