"How was it? Satisfied with my masterpiece?"

Yu Wuyi said with a faint smile.

In truth, he could have covered the entire void in deep blue, making it impossible for anyone to see inside.

But the reverse side of the world was not something one got to see easily.

Covering it with a huge mass of blue would be too ugly. Since it had already been exposed, it was better to leave it like this for future generations to admire.

At the same time, it could serve as a warning, letting them know how terrifying the reverse side of the world was.

So that those who came after would not make the same mistake.

As for whether later generations could reach Yu Wuyi's level, that was another matter.

After all, even Di Tian would have to put in considerable effort to directly damage the foundations of space.

Let alone across such a vast area.

"Was it worth it for you to do this?"

Without any guessing or probing, Di Tian directly voiced the question in his heart.

He did not understand why a human would go this far for soul beasts.

Was it merely because of that request?

Yu Wuyi was a little confused. What kind of question was this guy suddenly asking?

And what exactly was he asking about?

"You mean?"

Although Di Tian could not see the expression behind the mask, he could hear the confusion in Yu Wuyi's tone.

"Don't tell me you don't know?"

Di Tian was greatly surprised.

"Hm?"

What the hell had this guy been imagining?

Had I done anything strange just now?

Di Tian: "So you really don't know?"

Yu Wuyi: "Know what?"

Di Tian: "You actually don't know?"

Yu Wuyi: "..."

Riddle-speakers, get the hell out of Gotham!

Yu Wuyi was thoroughly fed up. After talking for so long, what the hell were you trying to say?!

You were just going in circles with me, huh?!

Come on, keep circling! Let me see how well you can keep it up!

Faintly, a chill began leaking from Caesar's frame, and the temperature around them gradually dropped.

Seeing that Yu Wuyi showed signs of making his armor erupt again, Di Tian realized that he had been somewhat slow with his words.

After coughing twice, he explained, "The power you used just now has, in my view, already reached the threshold of the divine level."

"Since you know of the God Realm's existence, you should also know what that means, shouldn't you?"

Only then did Yu Wuyi realize what Di Tian had been trying to say with all his riddles.

So he was worried that the God Realm would notice him and come after him.

What was there to worry about? That bastard God King Tang San had been watching him for a long time already.

And there was only a little over a year left before his spiritual descent. Had Yu Wuyi ever seemed afraid?

"Oh, that's what you meant. No need to worry."

On the surface, Yu Wuyi answered as casually as ever.

He knew, yet he was still this calm? Did he really understand what I meant?

Yu Wuyi's composed appearance left Di Tian deeply puzzled.

He suspected that Yu Wuyi had not understood him at all.

But the other man's next words dispelled that thought.

"Isn't it just that the God Realm might send someone to find me? It's not a big deal."

Yu Wuyi said indifferently.

No matter how powerful the people from the God Realm were, could they be stronger than Tang San? That guy's Asura God position was already one of the God Realm's supreme god positions.

I wasn't even afraid of him—why would I fear a few insignificant lackeys?

Yet those words greatly alarmed Di Tian.

He wasn't even afraid of people from the Divine Realm? Could it be that he had other trump cards?

Come to think of it, that made sense. He knew the Divine Realm so well; he couldn't possibly be unaware of the consequences of doing this.

Moreover, he was very likely from a higher plane equal to the Divine Realm.

It was only natural for him to possess something capable of standing against the Divine Realm.

I really was overthinking it.

Di Tian sighed inwardly. Given the other party's status, how could he possibly not know something even Di Tian himself knew?

But then another thought occurred to him. No, wait?

If this human wasn't afraid of people from the Divine Realm, then what did he mean by paying a great price?

As it happened, Yu Wuyi was also ready to claim his reward.

He walked up to Di Tian and said, "According to our agreement, it's time for me to state my request."

"You don't need to be too nervous. This request is quite simple for you."

Although Di Tian's expression did not change much, his nearly held breath revealed how nervous he truly was.

At the same time, he was curious about what the other party wanted so badly that he was willing to pay such a price for it.

Seeing how nervous Di Tian was, Yu Wuyi's mischievous side started acting up again.

Seeing someone who normally remained unfazed even with Mount Tai collapsing before him reveal such nervousness—

That contrast filled Yu Wuyi with delight.

So he deliberately put on a hesitant, conflicted expression, unable to squeeze out a single word for a long while.

He was having fun, at least.

But Di Tian was being tortured terribly, his anticipation repeatedly reaching its peak before being abruptly cut off.

He had never experienced anything like it before. It was truly agonizing beyond measure.

Still, thinking that the other party might have something difficult to say, he could only endure it.

Oh my, what a face like he'd swallowed something that had gone through the five grains' cycle!

Thanks for the treat~

Yu Wuyi silently thanked him in his heart.

Of course, he knew when to stop. A little teasing was enough; if he dragged it out too long, the other party might snap.

"Hmm, I've got it. How about you and I become allies?"

After saying that, Yu Wuyi nodded decisively.

But something seemed off with Di Tian.

You've got it? What did he mean, he'd got it?

So he hadn't even thought of his request from the very beginning?

Then he hadn't been hesitating just now because he had something difficult to say—he had been making it up on the spot?

For a moment, Di Tian was left speechless.

He had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, yet this was the first time he had encountered a human like this.

Which of the other peak human experts wasn't deeply calculating and calm as the wind?

Why had things become so strange with this one?

He had taken such enormous risks just for a request he hadn't even thought of yet?

"What, you can't even do that?"

Seeing Di Tian remain silent for so long, Yu Wuyi suppressed his laughter and spoke in an intentionally indifferent tone.

"No. I simply didn't expect your request to be so... simple."

Di Tian came back to his senses, his tone oddly complicated.

He suddenly stopped caring. Since he could not see through this human, he would just let him do as he pleased.

As long as it did not endanger the soul beasts, Di Tian could not be bothered to keep guessing at the human's thoughts.

After all, this human's way of thinking was simply beyond his comprehension.

"Alright. From now on, you and I are allies."

"My name is Yu Wuyi."

Yu Wuyi politely extended his right hand toward Di Tian.

"Di Tian."

Di Tian extended his right hand as well, and the two strongest beings in Douluo World formed an alliance ten thousand meters above the ground.

Of course, that was excluding Firefly and the Silver Dragon King.

"Then, since we're allies now..."

"It would only be reasonable for me to meet the person behind you, wouldn't it?"

The corner of Yu Wuyi's mouth beneath his mask curled up so high it was harder to suppress than an AK.

At first, he had truly formed this alliance only to secure Di Tian's business.

After all, Di Tian cared deeply about the entire soul beast race. Any commission he proposed would basically be a faction-level commission.

That was a 50% roleplay progress boost! Who could resist that kind of temptation?

But on second thought, wouldn't doing business with the Silver Dragon King be even better?

After all, the Silver Dragon King's ambitions were far greater than Di Tian's, and she also harbored the seeds of hatred toward the God Realm.

It just so happened that Yu Wuyi had issues with Tang San too.

He could mess with Tang San and do business at the same time.

Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?
