Nine Forms was a fake, and Tianluo wasn't the real Tianluo either.
Interesting...
"My lord," Shen Ye began, "what are your orders for this visit?"
Nine Forms pondered briefly, then said, "Earth Mother has hidden herself too well. We must obtain the Earth Golden Seal to find her."
"We've already discovered that she has ties to the former Underworld Lord Micteticashiva."
"You must find a way to obtain information on Micteticashiva."
"Yes, my lord. I'll handle it," Shen Ye said.
Nine Forms nodded. Seemingly finding nothing else to say, he said:
"Do your work well, and I won't be stingy with rewards."
Shen Ye raised an eyebrow.
Hmm?
Now that's just annoying.
Whatever the real Nine Forms' temperament was like, when I delivered results, he really did help me kill a dragon to upgrade my "Vampire Kid" trait.
-And threw in the "Lifeless Lord" rare class as well.
You're a fake, and you're dangling empty promises in front of me?
Do you really take me for some cross-world wage slave?
Shen Ye smiled and said half-jokingly:
"My lord, you still haven't given me the reward you promised for killing Tianluo's subordinates last time."
Nine Forms froze.
Last time?
The reward hasn't been given?
He looked at Shen Ye, a gleam flashing through his eyes as intense killing intent radiated from him.
Seemingly oblivious, Shen Ye continued:
"I already have some leads on finding Micteticashiva, and I've drawn the attention of all Lord Tianluo's subordinates."
"Rest assured, I'll bring you good news very soon."
Now Nine Forms couldn't bring himself to strike.
-This kid has leads on Micteticashiva.
Besides, in the Human World, the disappearance of a human king would cause a tremendous uproar.
The other top "Five Desires" powerhouses would certainly notice.
