Yi Tian turned his head as though he had sensed something, only to see that Lu Xinghe's expression had completely fallen apart.
It was as if his entire worldview had suddenly been shattered.
Or as if his brain had crashed on the spot, unable to process what was before him.
Puzzled, Yi Tian followed Lu Xinghe's vacant gaze. When he realized Lu Xinghe was staring at Alice, he understood at once and couldn't help laughing.
Throughout his hundreds of rebirths, Lu Xinghe had witnessed Alice accept the power of the Abyss, become the Demon Emperor, and destroy Great Xia.
But ever since Yi Tian had changed Alice's class, the Abyss had never come looking for her. All in all, this completely contradicted Lu Xinghe's experiences in his past lives.
Still, Yi Tian understood. Suddenly seeing an old enemy who had once destroyed the world become "one of us" was bound to feel a little unbelievable.
He smiled, finding Lu Xinghe's reaction rather amusing, and beckoned him over.
"Lu Xinghe, come meet your coworker."
At those words, Lu Xinghe's blank face suddenly twitched.
In truth, the moment he saw Alice, he had questioned more than just his worldview...
He had also questioned Yi Tian!
Especially since Yi Tian had just used Demonization to transform, and now he had summoned "Demon Emperor Alice"...
Lu Xinghe connected the dots, and a terrifying thought surfaced in his mind.
I... haven't walked straight into an Abyss hideout, have I?!
Could he be working with that woman from the Abyss who planted the mark on me?!
But... why would they toy with me like this?!
Lu Xinghe clutched his head with both hands, finding it difficult even to breathe.
If he had the Key of the Gate, he would have fled the Secret Realm and escaped
