Monster Paradise

Chapter 1810: I’ll Give You Three Seconds

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Nangong Tian was one of Royal’s earliest founders.

He had only been at minor dao-level when he participated in the founding of Royal.

Among the three founders, he was the only one who managed to elevate to heavenly dao-level, becoming the person who possessed the highest seniority in Royal.

He was even the one who promoted Sovereign Xuan, Zhao Xuan, to his position.

Since Zhao Xuan was promoted to be one of the three Sovereigns, they had taken charge of two different places and hardly saw each other. Despite that, he was utterly familiar with Nangong Tian’s voice.

He recognized Nangong Tian’s voice as soon as he spoke.

Initially, he thought that Nangong Tian had been killed during the Black Abyss’ attack. Never had he imagined that this guy betrayed the very Royal that he founded and became a member of the Black Abyss.

Clearly, Tian Capital being attacked was merely a facade that he erected.

He pretended to be killed during the attack and removed himself from Royal.

Having his mask removed by Zhao Xuan, the expression on Nangong Tian’s face was clearly uncomfortable.

He chose to escape because the Black Abyss had absolute confidence in killing the other two Royal’s Sovereigns. He seized the opportunity to fake his death, so it would be impossible for his identity as a spy to be exposed.

He never imagined that a variable, Lin Huang, would appear and save Zhao Xuan.

Not only was he alive, but he had even captured the Black Abyss’ two heavenly dao-level members, resulting in the current situation.

At that moment, he regretted participating in this mission. Initially, he had been quite unwilling to come. After all, he would have to face his old friend. However, as child-face had instigated conflict, to show his loyalty, he bit the bullet and came along. Even if he was recognized, it would have been difficult for Zhao Xuan to escape death, so it was nearly impossible for his identity to be exposed. He had never thought that things would develop to this state.

He spoke out because he knew that it was only a matter of time before his identity would be exposed.

The white-robed man or Zhao Xuan would remove their masks sooner or later. It was only a matter of time before their identities would be exposed.

He spoke in order to seek a lifeline.

After all, he and Zhao Xuan were old friends. He could even be considered half his teacher.

Their relationship might be a key factor for his survival.

Zhao Xuan was shaking from rage when he saw Nangong Tian’s face under the mask.

“Nangong Tian, how can you face Royal?! How can you face the tens of millions of Royal members?! You founded Royal with your own two hands. Are you trying to destroy it yourself now?!”

Nangong Tian allowed Zhao Xuan to finish, before speaking slowly, “Royal would still be Royal without the three Sovereigns, only weaker.”

“Really?! Have you ever thought how many people will leave without heavenly dao-level powerhouses acting as Royal’s guardians, and how much of our territory will remain? Or even how many of the ancillary worlds and resources of all sorts will remain?!” Zhao Xuan continued asking.

“My identity might be exposed any time. I just wanted to fake my death and escape, I didn’t think too much about it.” Nangong Tian looked away. Clearly, he knew about those consequences, but he did not care for them at all.

“Didn’t think too much about it?! What gives you the right to trick me and Li Yang? You don’t mind killing the two of us just to escape?!” Zhao Xuan was red with rage.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t have any other options…” Nangong Tian did not fight back, he only apologized. He lowered his stance now not because he was really repenting, but purely to ask for sympathy.

“You didn’t have any other options?! You could’ve chosen not to join the Black Abyss from the beginning. Then none of this would have had to happen!” Zhao Xuan continued to roar.

“If I didn’t join the Black Abyss, I might not have been able to break through to heavenly dao-level for the rest of my life. I might not even achieve half-step dominator-level!” Nangong Tian looked at his old friend in front of him. “I know my own talent and potential. I knew that I was at a dead end.”

“Do you know the feeling of someone opening a brand new door to you? A door suddenly appeared on the wall of a dead end. After opening that door, you could go forward. Not only will you arrive at the place you desired, you could even go further.”

“The Black Abyss showed me that door. They gave me the power to surpass the limits of my own talent and potential, breaking through heavenly dao-level and stepping into dominator-level… I saw a better future!”

Zhao Xuan had no idea how to respond to what Nangong Tian said at that moment. He stood where he was, stunned.

At that moment, Lin Huang finally spoke.

“You guys are just pathetic. You gave up the most precious things just for an illusory hope that might not even come true. You betrayed your family, people you love, your friends… just to hold onto that illusion.”

“Even if the illusion does come true, is it worth it?! Even if you went beyond heavenly dao-level and stepped into dominator-level, so what? Could you surpass the limits of your talent and potential and go further?”

“Don’t worry, I guarantee that that won’t happen. There’ll be a cap to breaking the limits of your talent and potential. Sooner or later, you’ll arrive at your limits again, and meet the same dead end. Not only that, at that point, nobody will open the door for you.”

“That Aza that you guys worship can’t do that either. The reason for that is because He isn’t infinitely powerful. He’s only at dominator-level rank-4 or rank-5 at most. Also, He has reached his limit.”

“No, an ant like you doesn’t understand how powerful Aza is.” Nangong Tian shook his head immediately to retort.

“There’s no entity that’s infinitely powerful. As long as they exist, there must be a limit. The Aza you guys worship is no exception.” Lin Huang was very determined when he said those words.

However, his words were meaningless to the few people from Black Abyss.

Any living beings whose God’s soul had been branded by Aza’s clone were His slaves and fanatics by nature. They would not listen to the “heresies” of the outside world.

“Please come to your senses, Nangong Tian.” Zhao Xuan could not bear to see Nangong Tian turn into one of Lin Huang’s spoils. “If you’re willing to remove yourself from the Black Abyss today and swear to cut ties with them and all of their members, I can try and beg senior for mercy to spare your life.”

“Stop wasting your time.” However, Lin Huang shook his head. “If I’m not mistaken, the Abyssal contract they signed is Aza’s God’s soul brand. Unless one’s God’s soul is more powerful than Aza’s, nobody can remove that brand at all.”

“Even if he left the Black Abyss on the surface, his God’s soul would still worship Aza. Also, there are actually ways to remove the contract.”

As expected, Nangong Tian looked a little uncomfortable when Lin Huang said that. Although he concealed that instantly, Lin Huang and Zhao Xuan sensed that.

Indeed, he planned to give his promise to save his life first.

About the contract, although it would work on ordinary people, just like what Lin Huang said, he had ways to remove the contract.

Nangong Tian’s heart sank instantly when Lin Huang exposed his secret.

Although Lin Huang had been distracted as he spoke, he did not stop retrieving the Kingdom at all. Soon, he had almost retrieved silver-face’s Kingdom entirely.

“I’ll give you three seconds to tell me about the Black Abyss. You don’t have to be straightforward about it, you can speak indirectly. After all, you’re only betraying the Black Abyss, not Aza.” Lin Huang grabbed onto the corner of silver-face’s Kingdom between his brows. He could pull it out entirely just by exerting some force.

“Three!”

“I…”

“Two!”

“The outcome would be the same no matter how I choose to reveal it…”

“One!”

“I really can’t…”

“Time’s up!”

Lin Huang exerted force without mercy.. With his Divine Telekinesis, the man’s Kingdom was pulled out completely by force.
