Void Vortex.

Neither the arrival of the Fifth Demon God nor Xiaoyao could affect the Asura who was digging the pit.

Or rather, they were completely unaware of it.

The difference in their levels of understanding, coupled with a sufficiently large distance.

After the butterfly appeared, it did not take any further action, but silently watched the situation develop.

The sky darkened.

Xue Meng raised his head and looked at the dim sky. Something was stirring behind the scenes.

"Shura, maybe we should stop digging?"

He always felt empty inside, a little panicked, as if something was missing.

Something very important.

Ye Bai also stopped, glanced around, and without putting down the shovel in his hand, smiled helplessly.

"There's no chance anymore."

Xue Meng was taken aback and asked, puzzled.

"What do you mean there's no chance?"

"Fifth Brother is here, oh...Third Brother is here too."

With Ye Bai's guidance, Xue Meng finally spotted the onlookers in the distance.

"The most crucial thing is..."

Ye Bai pointed to the void above and smiled helplessly.

"He came too."

Ye Bai could sense the aura of the supreme demon god.

He knows it too well!

The other party... wants to kill Ye Bai, and even more so, wants to kill Xiaoyao.

With all the heavyweights here, how things unfold next is really no longer Ye Bai's concern.

If this stone tablet cannot be dug up

Xiaoyao will stop Ye Bai.

Since Third Brother did nothing, that means he tacitly approved.

Tacit consent is permission.

Ye Bai believed that even if he and Xue Meng stopped and prepared to run away, they would be caught by Third Brother and made to continue digging up the stone tablet.

Instead of going through all that trouble, Ye Bai might as well continue digging.

just,

The deeper Ye Bai dug, the stranger it seemed.

Xue Jiu... isn't he just too strong?!

This seal is from nearly a hundred years ago, and even now, Ye Bai will have to put in a lot of effort to break it.

Just how strong was Xue Jiu back then?

Ye Bai even suspected that Xue Jiu's talent back then was the top-tier SS level, almost reaching SSS level!

It took Ye Bai a whole day to basically remove the seal and dig to the bottom of the stone tablet!

A ball of black light was easily absorbed by Ye Bai.

As expected, the fit is excellent!

Having obtained the source of the calamity, Ye Bai felt no joy at the moment, but instead fell into a daze.

because,

He saw a familiar pattern at the bottom of the stone tablet.

The moment Ye Bai saw the pattern, he froze, his mind went completely blank, as if struck by lightning.

How could this happen?

impossible!

Why is there an ugly heart here?

Why is the seal left by Xue Jiu signed with an ugly heart at the end?!

"What's wrong?"

Xue Meng stood on the edge of the pit, looking down at Shura, completely bewildered.

"It's okay."

Ye Bai looked up and subconsciously grinned, trying to hide his true emotions.

He didn't know how to tell Xue Meng about this.

Or rather, Ye Bai decided not to tell Xue Meng.

Beneath his black hair, his eyes held only a faint sadness, which he could not express.

Like a child who has suffered injustice and has nowhere to confide in, they can only silently bear it all themselves.

"Are you really alright?"

The naturally optimistic Xue Meng was completely unaware of what had happened.

If he weren't naturally optimistic, he would have collapsed long ago after being exploited by Shura so many times.

Ye Bai denied it again.

"fine."

Xue Meng noticed a chilling detail: "Why are you crying?"

A demon sheds tears?

Is he going to die?

Big Mengzi panicked!

"I cried tears of joy. I finally have the combat strength of 1.1 Xue Meng."

Ye Bai continued to talk nonsense, pretending to be relaxed.

He knew, of course, that he couldn't fool Xue Meng like that.

Therefore, Ye Bai offered a more reasonable explanation.

"Overuse of talent has side effects."

[Disdain is a catch-all term; anything can be thrown into it.]

This time, they managed to fool Xue Meng.

Ye Bai's talent lies in his eyes, so it's normal for him to have side effects.

Ye Bai took a deep breath and casually put the stone tablet into his storage space, preventing Xue Meng from seeing the contents at the bottom of the stone tablet.

Xue Meng: ? ? ?

He panicked, his eyes widened, and he stretched his neck.

"Wasn't it meant for me?!"

You call this a 50/50 split?

This was already the greatest resistance Xue Meng had ever dared to show against Shura!

"What's the rush? I'll keep it safe for you. You can have your New Year's money when you're older... I mean, this thing is heavy, it'll slow you down if you carry it. You think I won't give it to you?"

Ye Bai said confidently,

"Why would I covet what you have? What, I can't have it even if I want it?"

The truth has been revealed.

Xue Meng thought about it again and realized that what Shura said made sense.

However, Xue Meng wouldn't turn against Shura over a mere stone tablet.

Anyway, Xue Jiu will be back soon.

What difference does it make whether there is one more stone tablet or one less stone tablet?

Beneath his black hair, Ye Bai's eyes were dim, and a bitter thought flashed through his mind.

"I think I know what Ninth Master lied to me about..."

If possible, Ye Bai would rather not know.

He is very smart, but in this matter, he would rather be a little confused.

This matter...

Clearly, Xieyan knows something.

It dared not speak, partly because it involved the Supreme Being, and partly because speaking out would only bring harm and no benefit to Ye Bai.

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

When Ye Bai saw the ugly heart at the bottom of the stone tablet, he understood everything.

In his mind, countless fragmented details pieced together at that moment, restoring the truth.

The facts have always been right in front of Ye Bai.

Ying Jiu, however, used the simplest of tricks to fool everyone.

For certain reasons, those who knew the inside story were willing to cooperate with Shadow Nine in this scam.

In fact, this scam wasn't even intended to fool Ye Bai from the very beginning; it was designed to deceive Xue Meng and everyone else who was unaware of the truth...

Only two people brought this up with Ye Bai.

Huo the Madman, living a carefree life.

The former was his last words before he died.

The latter is outspokenness, which disdains lying.

Without them, even with his keen insight, Ye Bai would have had a hard time seeing through the deception.

Because in this scam, Ying Jiu did not lie.

Every word he told Ye Bai was true; there was no falsehood in it.

This is a hoax woven from the truth; it's a hoax that has been going on for 97 years.

The most successful aspect of this scam is that it contains not a single lie.

Ye Bai had never thought about one question:

"What is Xue Jiu's Eternal ID?"

Ye Bai didn't ask.

Shadow Nine never said that.

Today, he knows the answer.

Why is it that Xue Jiu, the King of Men, with such a formidable record, left no trace in the Eternal Tower...?

Why did Xue Jiu's name appear in the Great Vortex...?

Why is it that Ninth Master, with his innate talent, can roam freely in the abyss, undefeated and able to cut down whomever he chooses...?

Why did Ninth Master want to seize the Supreme Mark and achieve the position of supreme power...?

I've figured everything out.

Ye Bai closed his eyes slightly, gritted his teeth, and tried his best not to let the tears flow from his eyes, so that Xue Meng would not notice anything unusual.

He sniffed.

But my heart is bleeding.

Ye Bai sighed softly to himself.

"Oh, it's you, big brother."
