79: The wind's blowing hard, time to get out of here! Clean up the mess? Forget about it!

Su Chen's energetic slogan echoed in the empty and silent pagoda, overflowing with a sacred sense of ritual from finishing a triumphant job.

Carrying the pig on his shoulder and the wine in his arms, like a general returning to his village in victory, he dove back into the dog hole he came from without looking back.

His retreating figure seemed lonely yet carried an air of impatience, as if his priceless Thousand-Year Spiritual Silkworm Bed would grow legs and run away if he were a second late.

Ye Linghan watched the figure disappear into the hole, an evil curve unconsciously tugging at the corners of her mouth.

She had seen those trapped by love, those obsessed with power, and those infatuated with the Dao.

But someone who would poke a hole in the sky for a pig and a few jars of wine, while looking like they "made a killing," was definitely a first.

Liu Ruyan and Ling Qingzhu exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of numbness and absurdity in each other's eyes. Sighing as if resigning to their fate, they also crawled into that "VIP passage" worthy of being recorded in the theft annals of the Xuanyuan Continent.

When the figures of the four completely disappeared.

Buzz—!!!

A crimson alarm beam of light shot up from the top of the central pagoda, tearing through the night sky and dyeing the entire Tiandu Imperial City an ominous blood-red!

"Enemy attack—! Enemy attack—!"

"The treasury has been breached! Maximum level alarm!"

"Seal the whole city! Activate the city protection array! Not even a fly is allowed out!"

The Tiandu Imperial City, which had been silent for tens of thousands of years, instantly boiled over.

Countless powerful auras soared into the sky from all over the city, their Divine Thoughts interweaving like a net, frantically sweeping through every inch of space.

Inside the Myriad Dao Merchant Guild, dozens of elders with terrifying auras flew out, beating their chests and stomping their feet. Looking at the treasury where even the topsoil had been scraped off by three feet, they nearly collapsed from rage, their Dao Hearts on the verge of shattering.

And the culprit behind all this had already taken advantage of the initial chaos to return silently to the most bustling street of the Tiandu Imperial City.

The clamor of voices and the chaotic aura rising to the sky rushed toward them.

Su Chen let out a long breath, feeling as if he had finally returned to the mortal world from that suffocating asura field.

"Alright, the business is over. Let's part ways here."

He announced impatiently, as if trying to shake off a hot potato.

"Go wherever you want, just don't follow me. I'm not familiar with you."

He now only wanted to immediately activate the Great Void Technique, take his beloved pig and wine, dive into his bed on Divine Son Peak, and sleep soundly to completely forget tonight's ridiculous experience.

[Damn, I've never had such a thrill in my life.]

[In the future, if anyone dares to mention "auction" or "treasury" to me again, I'll hang them up and whip them with the Golden Scale Pig's hooves!]

Su Chen was frantically setting flags in his heart, completely unaware that the way the three ladies beside him looked at him had undergone a world-shaking change.

Liu Ruyan gave a charmingly evil smile, her thoughts unknown.

Ling Qingzhu bit her red lip with her pearly teeth. In her cold eyes, the ten-thousand-year frost had already melted, replaced by a watery tenderness and dependence.

However, the most dangerous one was Ye Linghan.

Or rather "him," the Imposter wearing Su Chen's face, who just stood quietly beside Su Chen.

Those deep eyes stared at Su Chen without blinking.

Deep within those eyes was a twisted and burning possessiveness.

This man was hers.

This interesting toy was the most cherished treasure she had encountered in a hundred thousand years.

How could she possibly let him "go home and sleep" so easily?

Su Chen's Divine Thought was already surging, the Law of the Void at his fingertips beginning to pulse, and a perfect spatial beacon had already locked onto Su Ying and the others.

With one step, he could escape this place of trouble.

With one step, there would be a warm bed and the aroma of roasted pig.

However, at the moment he lifted his foot.

A hand rested on his shoulder.

That hand was slender, with distinct knuckles, looking exactly like his own.

But an indescribable Demonic Law instantly invaded his body through that hand!

Buzz!

The familiar spatial Law around Su Chen, which he controlled as easily as his own limbs, let out a wail and was actually directly swallowed, polluted, and twisted by that overbearing power!

The Dao charm of the Great Void Technique he was about to activate was crushed before it could even bloom!

The next second, the world spun.

His figure, along with the Imposter who had grabbed him, was enveloped in a thick darkness and vanished into thin air before the suddenly constricting pupils of Liu Ruyan and Ling Qingzhu.

As if they had never appeared.

"Su Chen!"

Ling Qingzhu and Liu Ruyan cried out in alarm almost simultaneously.

But the only response they got was the increasingly chaotic clamor of the Tiandu Imperial City... hundreds of millions of miles away.

An abandoned, silent void Star Domain.

This was the graveyard of the Universe, with no stars, no light, only eternal darkness and Void Turbulence.

Light and shadow twisted, and the figures of Su Chen and the Imposter stumbled onto a huge floating meteorite.

Carrying the pig and holding the wine, Su Chen had just steadied himself and hadn't even had time to start cursing when an invisible Domain power instantly sealed off the surrounding ten thousand miles.

This place had become an absolute cage.

Su Chen's heart plummeted into a bottomless abyss.

It's over.

Totally finished!

This fake has finally revealed their true colors!

He whipped around and stared intently at the Imposter who was still gripping his shoulder, his voice turning hoarse with extreme vigilance.

"What exactly do you want to do?!"

"Tee-hee-hee..."

The response he received was a burst of charming yet crazed laughter belonging to Ye Linghan.

In Su Chen's rapidly constricting pupils.

The "his" body began to emit a tooth-grating "crackling" sound.

The tall and straight youth's bones were twisted and reshaped, becoming slender yet filled with an explosive sense of power.

That handsome face, identical to his own, was like a melting wax statue, recongealing into that bewitchingly beautiful face capable of enchanting all living beings.

The white clothes dissipated into demonic light, and the tattered mysterious black imperial robe once again draped over her body.

In just a few breaths.

The Imposter completely disappeared.

In its place was the peerless Demoness who had just been completely fooled by him—Ye Linghan!

She was back.

And she had returned in a way that made his soul tremble with fear!

"Holy crap!"

Su Chen instinctively cursed, his entire body freezing in place, his mind going blank.
