Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 2153 - 2154: Persuasion

Although the turmoil caused by the relics left by that group of people has temporarily subsided, everyone who knows the truth understands that this is only temporary. At least, until we figure out how much they left behind, this storm will not completely disappear.

Moreover, if there’s a mishandling during the process, an even larger wave of turmoil might re-emerge, after all, what they left behind are relics and technology from the legendary Mythical Era.

Back at the academy, Feng Yuan did not go looking for Qi Chen and the others. Gazing at the tightly closed door, Veronia glanced at Agunas and said with a headache expression,

"Should we comfort him?"

"You go?"

Turning her head to glance at Veronia, Agunas casually said. Veronia placed her hands on her hips and said angrily,

"Little Crocodile, you’ve learned bad habits! I was wondering why you were silent, turns out you were waiting for this moment!"

"However, if I go, it might not be suitable either."

With a glance at Xiao Ji who was guarding the door, Veronia didn’t say much. Feng Yuan’s unusual behavior was obvious even Xiao Ji noticed. As for trying to persuade or console him?

They were merely saying it for the sake of it. Veronia knew well that this is something only Feng Yuan could figure out by himself.

Besides, Veronia believed Feng Yuan would come to terms with it eventually, after all... hasn’t he experienced more than anyone else?

"Tamur, I remember you said that place was the foothold. Have you seen where they are now?"

Remembering something, Agunas asked Tamur. To completely end this chaos, first, they must find all the relics left by that group.

After all, the items from the Mythical Era’s technology, even if no one finds them for a moment, pose a hidden threat. Unaware was one thing, but now that they are aware that this group might still be alive, Agunas would naturally want to clarify things.

Whether the other party would cooperate, Agunas did not know, but it shouldn’t be an issue unless the other party truly intends to commit misdeeds.

Compared to Agunas, Veronia considered more. Or rather, exactly because of its different experiences from Agunas, it harbored doubts about which side Feng Yuan would align with if they came into conflict with that group.

However, after some thought, it believed that probably wouldn’t be the case. Although that group left neither words nor messages, it felt as though they hadn’t intended any harm towards the world. The Netherworld Obelisk was likely just an accident.

Of course, this could also be deduced from the remains they left in the Netherworld, given those are much more terrifying than the Netherworld Obelisk.

Even according to Feng Yuan, those without understanding simply couldn’t use it, but considering it’s a weapon capable of directly opposing the Divine Beasts, Agunas and the others could not remain unworried.

If it were in the Mythical Era, then that’s another story. In that era, weapons against the Divine Beasts and Divine Beings were abundant, though others required certain strengths, but in terms of convenience, those were much more accessible.

Such a large architectural group, even if it had defenses, how long could it hold under siege?

Yet, these weapons that were normal in the Mythical Era are completely different in the modern era, at least by the current standards of combat power, unless a group of Divine Beasts personally intervened, there’s truly no way to deal with those items.

As for sieging them, that notion itself is a joke. On the way back Agunas had asked Feng Yuan, whose response was, it could even instantaneously destroy a Sacred Beast.

Even some of the weaker Divine Beasts might not be opponents against the full-powered sacrifice attack. However, normally, such power cannot be exerted in the modern era, of course times have changed.

Unless Feng Yuan personally wielded it, that item should be difficult to directly confront a Divine Beast, yet even so, it’s sufficiently astonishing and world-threatening.

Not to mention, if those illegal organizations had access to it, the consequences would be dire, after all, they don’t adhere to the rules of the surface world as the Alliance and major forces do.

The next day, Feng Yuan again decided to skip class, but this time he headed not to Kui Shan Town but to the Cha Mu Specialty Town.

Sipping on a steaming cup of green tea in a teahouse,

"You didn’t attend class today?"

Suddenly feeling a pat on his shoulder, Feng Yuan turned around confusedly and saw it was He Nanqing and smiled,

"Neither did you, right?"

"Unlike you, I’m no longer a student. But has that matter been resolved?"

Although notified, He Nanqing had a feeling things were not as simple as they seemed. Affairs related to the Netherworld are rarely easy to handle, and she had a hunch that somehow Feng Yuan was involved.

Of course, He Nanqing didn’t believe Feng Yuan was the cause, seeing Feng Yuan’s dazed expression while drinking tea, she speculated perhaps it was caused by Feng Yuan’s friend.

As for who exactly, He Nanqing couldn’t guess. Though Feng Yuan publicly has a simple network of relationships, they weren’t aware of the hidden side of things. Given Feng Yuan’s displayed strength so far, those in close ties with him, including Qi Chen, were no weaklings capable of causing such disturbances.

Feng Yuan wasn’t aware of He Nanqing’s speculations. He sighed and said,

"Not yet."

"Seeing you worried, is it very troublesome?"

Pulling out a chair and sitting opposite Feng Yuan, curiosity piqued, He Nanqing asked. Feng Yuan thought for a moment and said,

"Sort of, this matter is... quite complex."

Mainly, Feng Yuan was unsure what this group’s exact status was, worried that the truth might be different from his expectations.

Though He Nanqing didn’t know exactly what happened, and Feng Yuan didn’t dare to reveal everything in detail, she still managed to guess a few things.

Although she couldn’t understand why Agunas didn’t intervene when Feng Yuan got entangled with them, inadvertent alteration of the future certainly made it unclear how they perceived it.

Be it gratitude or resentment, or perhaps a mix of complicated feelings.

Even without knowing the whole truth, He Nanqing could tell what was troubling Feng Yuan. With her consolations, Feng Yuan felt slightly better. As for seeking that group now?

Feng Yuan was still hesitant. In response, He Nanqing could only persuade him not to rush into it. After all, the current state of Feng Yuan approaching them could be disastrous if the other party harbored grudges initially.

Mainly to disguise the truth, Feng Yuan claimed borrowing help from Agunas to travel back in time inadvertently imparted techniques, allowing them to infiltrate the Netherworld with mortal bodies by merging original techniques.

Despite some inconsistencies, He Nanqing believed Feng Yuan’s explanation, mainly because she had insight into the matter. She knew that during the Dynasty Era when those individuals were active, it differed by millennia from the present day.

Had it not been for the unexpected result of time travel, Feng Yuan theoretically shouldn’t have any direct interactions with them.

Meanwhile, on the other side, learning the "truth" from other Divine Beasts, the human factions also adjusted their measures accordingly. For now, it seemed unnecessary to enter into a heightened alert state.

Moreover, the troublesome Netherworld Obelisk had been taken back by the Netherworld Divine Beasts, at least on the surface, things appeared to have temporarily settled. However, some illegal organizations kept their eyes on that Netherworld Obelisk.

For them, placing moles within the Alliance is quite a common practice, allowing them to learn about the altered truth told by Feng Yuan and the others.

No matter its other capabilities, one thing is for certain: it holds significant value for forcing an entry into the Netherworld.

It should be known that while there are numerous ultimate moves like the Nether Cross that lead to the Netherworld, maneuvering freely within the Netherworld is not easy. Apart from the main spatial layers, it encompasses numerous subspace layers where needed items might be located.

Unfortunately, those subspaces aren’t easily accessible to ordinary Spirit Beasts, making that item akin to a key capable of unlocking a treasure trove to them. Therefore, some illegal organizations have commenced their actions.
