Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

"Opportunity?"

"What opportunity did my father receive?" Kong Mengmeng asked curiously.

When Kong Mengmeng’s curiosity arose, she was already destined to be fooled by Lin Yuan.

"Here’s how it went; father-in-law once received a token..." Lin Yuan began the story from when Peacock Great Ming King got a mud-made token from Xi Huang, and then he slowly recounted the events.

Of course, Lin Yuan also omitted and altered some content in his story.

For example, he hid their antagonistic relationship with Wa Huang, modifying it to seem peaceful and even friendly.

To lie and deceive, you can’t tell all falsehoods.

You must mix truth with lies, three parts truth and seven parts false.

Or perhaps, three parts lies and seven parts truth.

Only in this way can someone truly believe you.

Kong Mengmeng was unaware of the intricacies involved, nor did she suspect Lin Yuan would deceive her with kind lies.

Thus, Kong Mengmeng deeply believed Lin Yuan’s words.

"So that’s how it is!"

"My father actually received such a great opportunity, maybe he thought you’d tell me, so he didn’t have the chance to inform me before he left!" Kong Mengmeng gradually felt relieved.

Lin Yuan nodded and agreed: "You know your father, he always pursued power."

"After my Evil Corpse attained enlightenment, it’s impossible for anyone in this world to do so now. If he wants to advance further, he can only seek breakthroughs in the Void!"

With Lin Yuan’s agreement, Kong Mengmeng believed even more deeply.

Because, in Kong Mengmeng’s impression, her father was always a martial arts fanatic.

Even in the past, it was commonplace for him to close off for ten years, or even decades, hundreds of years.

Knowing her father’s whereabouts now, Kong Mengmeng felt much more at ease.

"Mengmeng, the remnants under the World Honored are yet to be fully cleared!"

"I’m afraid they might retaliate against you; you need to return to my other world for now."

"If you don’t want to stay there, after we’ve cleared out the remnants, you can come again." Lin Yuan gently advised Kong Mengmeng.

Upon hearing Lin Yuan’s words, Kong Mengmeng quickly shook her head: "I really like it there, the sisters treat me well!"

"I only came back to check because I was worried about Father’s safety."

"If...if you could occasionally come back to accompany us, that would be even better!"

"The sisters miss you too!"

Upon hearing Kong Mengmeng’s words, Lin Yuan thought, it seems I should find time to return and clear out my fish spawn blessing bag.

"Once I’m done with these days, I’ll definitely come back to spend time with you all!" Lin Yuan said to Kong Mengmeng.

After a gentle exchange, Lin Yuan sent Kong Mengmeng back to the Real World.

After sending Kong Mengmeng back, Lin Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, there were many people near the East Sea, many of whom knew the truth.

If by chance something leaked out, and Kong Mengmeng heard it, things would become complicated.

After all, to Peacock Great Ming King, Kong Mengmeng is his only weakness.

If Kong Mengmeng is kept close, she would become a big target.

Lin Yuan also worried that Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha might use Kong Mengmeng to test Peacock Great Ming King.

Thus, hiding Kong Mengmeng in the Real World is currently the best choice.

She is Peacock Great Ming King’s weakness; hiding her is equivalent to hiding the weakness of Peacock Great Ming King.

...

...

Void.

Wa Huang’s Palace.

After Wa Huang reached a deal with Demon Lord and Buddha, feeling stifled, she returned to Wa Huang’s Palace.

At this moment, Xi Huang was already waiting outside Wa Huang’s Palace.

Seeing Xi Huang, Wa Huang’s mood slightly improved.

No matter what, her brother at least did something reliable, successfully bringing back Peacock Great Ming King!

Moreover, as long as Peacock Great Ming King remains under Wa Huang’s control and can be used by her,

then in the cultivation race with Buddha and Demon Lord, she would have the upper hand.

"Dao Fruit!"

"Just a mere World Honored Dao Fruit, how can it compare to me, a living being!" Wa Huang thought, feeling somewhat smug.

Even the living World Honored did not succeed in attaining Dao, so what use is the dead World Honored Dao Fruit?

Wa Huang mused that Buddha was only desperately clutching at straws.

Thinking this, Wa Huang felt a bit more relaxed and didn’t regard the so-called World Honored Dao Fruit highly.

"How’s he doing?" Wa Huang glanced at Wa Huang’s Palace and asked Xi Huang, who was beside her.

Xi Huang pondered for a moment and replied, "His emotions are quite stable, but not very sociable."

"After all, we forced him to come here; some aversion is normal."

After hearing Xi Huang’s words, Wa Huang’s eyes flashed with a glint, and she said, "As long as he’s alive, there’s no fear!"

"I have plenty of ways to make him serve my purposes."

After speaking, Wa Huang began walking into Wa Huang’s Palace.

Inside a side hall of Wa Huang’s Palace, Peacock Great Ming King sat cross-legged, eyes closed in cultivation.

"How does it feel to cultivate in my Wa Huang Palace?" Wa Huang’s voice sounded beside Peacock Great Ming King’s ear.

How does it feel?

In terms of energy abundance and purity, Wa Huang’s Palace far surpasses Peacock Great Ming King’s dojo tenfold.

Cultivating in Wa Huang’s Palace for one day equals ten days at Peacock Great Ming King’s dojo.

If it weren’t for knowing Wa Huang’s ill intentions, Peacock Great Ming King would truly enjoy cultivating here.

But aware of Wa Huang’s malice, Peacock Great Ming King could not show her a friendly face.

"Humph!" Peacock Great Ming King snorted coldly: "A golden nest or a silver nest, none can compare to one’s own den."

"No matter how good it is here, home might be humble, but it’s always more comfortable."

Wa Huang did not get angry at Peacock Great Ming King’s words.

Wa Huang was used to it!

Last time, when she forcibly kept Peacock Great Ming King, he cursed and begged Wa Huang to kill him.

This time, Peacock Great Ming King just had a bad attitude.

Compared to last time, isn’t this progress?

Besides, if the progress was too fast and Peacock Great Ming King suddenly bowed down to her, Wa Huang would suspect Peacock Great Ming King of harboring foul plots.

Wa Huang looked at Peacock Great Ming King and handed him a jade slip, saying: "Since you’ve entered my Wa Huang Palace, naturally you’ll cultivate the Magic of Wa Huang Palace."

"The Great Five Elements Reversal Divine Skill is ideal for your current cultivation, study it thoroughly."

After Wa Huang finished speaking, she didn’t linger; she turned and left.

Wa Huang walked away, but Xi Huang did not.

Xi Huang looked at Peacock Great Ming King and advised kindly: "Peacock Great Ming King! You see, Wa Huang treats you quite well!"

"You should know, with Demon Lord and Buddha, disciples are treated as mere slaves!"

Peacock Great Ming King looked up at Xi Huang with disdain: "That’s because they have no backbone!"
