After Mo Chen finished creating the fake ruins.
They then returned to the palace in Hermoz.
But as soon as he entered the palace...
To my surprise, I saw Hermoz leaning back on that high seat.
Upon seeing this, Mo Chen was immediately enraged.
"You're sitting in this seat too?"
Mo Chen shouted sharply and raised his hand, aiming it at Hermoz from a distance.
Suddenly, a tremendous force enveloped Hermoz completely.
Lin Heng simply waved his hand from a distance.
Hermoz's body was thrown off the high seat.
'Bang!'
The next second, Hermoz was flung against the wall by the immense force, and the huge tremor shook the entire hall.
'puff!'
Before Hermoz could even stand up, his legs gave way, and he knelt on the ground. At the same time, a gurgling sound came from his throat, and blood spurted out, staining the ground red.
When Hermoz looked at Mo Chen again.
The man had already taken his seat on that high platform.
Hermoz forced himself to his feet, then dragged his aching body to the bottom of the steps in front of Hermoz.
"I hope you will forgive me, sir."
Hermoz bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.
Mo Chen snorted and began to reprimand Hermoz without giving him any face.
"Don't still think you're the boss here."
"As long as I am alive, you and your men must obey my orders."
"Only I can sit in this position."
"Considering this is your first offense, I won't hold it against you this time."
"If there's a next time, I won't hesitate to kill you on the spot."
This time, Hermoz went even further, bowing deeply, much like a disciple returning a reprimand after being taught by his master.
Seeing that Hermoz's attitude was good, Mo Chen stopped pursuing the matter further.
"I've taken care of things regarding the ruins."
The address is here.
As he spoke, Mo Chen waved his hand, conjuring a water curtain in the air.
The scene of the fake ruins also appeared in the water curtain.
After all, this is within the territory of the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea.
Even though it was a deserted area, Hermoz was able to pinpoint the location of the fake ruins at a glance.
Seeing Hermoz nod, Mo Chen removed the water curtain.
"Get out!"
"If I don't see Lin Heng enter it in a month."
"Then neither you nor your men will survive."
After Mo Chen's threatening words, Hermoz made a guarantee.
Please rest assured, sir.
" Lin Heng should appear within the ruins in one month."
After saying this, Hermoz took his leave, bowing as he backed out of the hall.
Mo Chen didn't look at Hermoz again.
For a mere ant to even glance at him once is already an immense stroke of luck for him.
If it weren't for the fact that it still had some use...
Mo Chen didn't even want to say a single word to Hermoz.
In his eyes, the ants of the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands are not even worthy of seeing the true face of his Ancient Clan.
Hermoz left the hall, and as the doors closed, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he turned back.
As the lord of the sea, Hermoz's cultivation level was like that of an infant in front of Mo Chen.
That doesn't mean he can tolerate being humiliated at will by this hothead Mo Chen.
When offering advice to Mo Chen, Hermoz had already devised a complete plan.
He immediately left the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea and flew towards the Southern Spirit Sacred Sea.
Hongjun was slightly surprised to see Hermoz arrive.
This was the first time in all these years that Hermoz had taken the initiative to contact him.
Inside Hongjun's palace.
After the two sat down, Hongjun asked with a smile:
"Junior Brother Hermoz, you must have come to see me about something important, right?"
Such a direct question might be a little hurtful, but upon closer reflection, it seems that the two of them don't really have any feelings for each other.
Hermoz, understanding the delicate relationship between the two, spoke frankly and without any beating around the bush:
"Senior Brother, I've come here today to tell you something."
"The same people who appeared during the last Heavenly Ladder Battle have now come to my Eastern Victorious Divine Sea."
Upon hearing this, Hongjun's pupils contracted, and he couldn't help but frown.
Just thinking about the strength of Mo Chen and his group still makes him feel tense.
This group's return to the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands is not good news for Hongjun.
Seeing that Hongjun's expression was solemn and he remained silent for a long time, Hermoz simply recounted everything that had happened since Mo Chen's arrival.
Hongjun smiled after hearing this.
"Junior brother, are you planning to use Lin Heng's men to get rid of that guy named Mo Chen?"
Hermoz made no attempt to hide this and readily agreed.
Although I don't get along with Lin Heng.
"But we are cultivators from Four Seas and Eight Wastelands."
"Our struggle is none of an outsider's business."
"What happens between Lin Heng and me after this is a matter for all of us in the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands."
The words sound nice, but everyone knows the real reason behind them.
Hongjun was well aware of Hermoz's temper.
Even if Mo Chen Mo Chen given a top-tier spiritual treasure, or even if he were allowed to advance to a higher level, Mo Chen would likely remember this grudge and repay it sooner or later.
Hongjun then began to sort out this matter in his mind.
Based on his understanding of Hermoz, and considering Mo Chen's actions, it's entirely possible that Hermoz would turn against him.
Of course, Hongjun also had to be wary of Hermoz's possible trap.
It's also possible that Hermoz deliberately feigned weakness to deceive himself, thereby persuading Lin Heng and ultimately falling into his and Mo Chen's trap.
Secondly, Hermoz didn't go to Lin Heng, but instead came to find himself.
This is not surprising at all.
Whether Hermoz's visit to Lin Heng is true or false, Lin Heng will not choose to join forces with him.
It was precisely because Hermoz had anticipated this that he came to him to act as an intermediary.
After all, the appearance of an intruder like Mo Chen in the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands was something he absolutely could not tolerate.
Finally, if you go to Lin Heng yourself, the chances of persuading Lin Heng will be extremely high.
After some deliberation, Hongjun finally looked at Hermoz and gave his reply.
I will make a trip to the Heavenly Star Sea Region immediately to handle this matter.
"As for whether I can persuade Lin Heng, I'm not entirely confident."
"You should return to the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea first."
" Mo Chen makes any move, just let me know immediately."
Hermoz didn't say much, but after standing up, clasping his hands in greeting, he left the Southern Spirit Sacred Sea directly.
As soon as Hermoz left, Hongjun couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
The waters of the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands are becoming increasingly murky.
"I wonder if this is ultimately a good thing or a bad thing..."
As the sigh subsided, Hongjun vanished from the main hall.
When Hongjun reappeared, he had already arrived at the Heavenly Star Sea Region.
However, Lin Heng is currently in seclusion, studying the Universe-Piercing Arrow.
The one who came to greet him was Dijiang.
As a disciple, Liu Yuansheng naturally came along to pay his respects.
