Hermoz, emboldened by alcohol...
Lin Heng and I had a long rant about Primordial Chaos.
He recounted the events of when he first ascended to the Four Seas and Eight Wastelands.
The Lord of the Western Celebratory Demon Sea back then.
One sentence angered Primordial Chaos.
They were condemned to a fate of never being able to be reborn.
When this was mentioned, Hermoz had a very emotional expression.
Lin Heng sneered inwardly after hearing this.
I didn't expect Hermoz to be so impatient.
It hasn't been long, and they've already revealed their true intentions.
Is his purpose in coming here to sow discord between himself and Primordial Chaos?
What was Hermoz's purpose in doing this?
This sparked a conflict between himself and Primordial Chaos.
So that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman's scheme?
Lin Heng immediately rejected this idea as soon as it came to mind.
If Hermoz intends for himself to engage in a life-or-death struggle with Primordial Chaos in the future.
Just like Mu Chen and Primordial Chaos back then.
Even if in the end, he and Primordial Chaos fight to the death.
It's not up to Hermoz to decide the fate of the Four Seas.
After all, Hongjun may seem all smiles on the surface.
Nobody knows how many trump cards this guy is hiding.
Even without Primordial Chaos.
According to Lin Heng's estimation, Hongjun was also able to suppress the lords of the other three seas.
Thus, Hermoz's scheme was exposed.
In the end, isn't it all just a wedding dress made for Hongjun?
Hermoz could not possibly be unaware of the same principle.
There can only be one reason why he did this.
He was confident that he could replace Hongjun.
And the only person Lin Heng could think of who could help Hermoz achieve his wish was...
Fate!
After all, the Lord of the Four Seas is already considered to be a pinnacle existence in the Primordial Chaos Universe.
At their level...
There aren't many people who can still help them.
All Lin Heng could think of was Fate.
This made Lin Heng realize how tricky things were.
Could it be that Hermoz has undergone such a drastic change?
Is it truly Fate that someone would even lower themselves to come looking for you?
The idea popped into Lin Heng's mind.
Lin Heng discovered that the possibility was still extremely high.
Fate had approached me before.
But that conversation between the two ended unpleasantly.
Perhaps even Fate itself cannot find a way to convince itself.
That's why they sought out other people to act as intermediaries.
but...
What puzzled Lin Heng was...
Fate had unexpectedly chosen Hermoz.
This guy has always been very hostile towards me.
Wouldn't sending him immediately raise my guard?
Could Fate make such a mistake?
Or is Fate plotting something else?
Unfortunately, Lin Heng couldn't think of an answer right away.
I looked at Hermoz again.
Now that we've guessed this guy's intentions...
Lin Heng smiled and played along with his act.
" Primordial Chaos, as the Lord of the Universe, holds the power of life and death over the entire universe."
"Killing a lord is nothing."
Lin Heng originally wanted to retort directly.
Compared to Primordial Chaos, aren't you, Hermoz, even more ruthless?
To deal with Lao Tzu, they slaughtered all living beings in an entire universe to refine the Blood Spirit Grand Array.
However, in order to extract more useful information from this guy, Lin Heng didn't say those words aloud.
Meanwhile, Evil Avatar also provided an assist.
" Hermoz, you are, after all, the lord of a sea."
"If your subordinates do something to displease you, are you just going to put up with their temper?"
Upon Evil Avatar this, Hermoz's expression became slightly unnatural.
But he quickly covered it up.
"Hehe!"
"I did drink a bit too much today."
Let's not talk about this anymore.
"It's not my place to judge what Master does."
Hermoz had barely finished speaking.
Just then, the person who had gone out to get the wine came in.
Lin Heng and the others did not bring up the matter again, and the group continued to drink and chat.
While drinking, it's natural to chat for a bit.
Dijiang recounted the story of how the Twelve Ancestral Witches followed Mu Chen.
Hermoz was deeply moved when he recalled that period of time.
The appearance of Mu Chen and the Twelve Ancestral Witches back then was like a fleeting moment.
But the legends they left behind Four Seas are unforgettable for the strongest people of the Four Seas.
Suddenly, Hermoz raised the large bowl in front of him and drank the wine in one gulp.
'Bang!'
Then he placed the empty bowl on the table and wiped the wine droplets from his lips.
"If Mu Chen were still Four Seas and Eight Wastelands would probably be a completely different place."
Hermoz's words were indeed quite effective.
A single sentence resonated with the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Even though they have now accepted Lin Heng as their new master.
But that doesn't mean they can forget the time they spent following Mu Chen.
As he finished speaking, a look of nostalgia appeared in the eyes of all Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Upon seeing this, Hermoz was momentarily stunned.
He had only said that casually.
Unexpectedly, I received a pleasant surprise.
It was clear that the emotions of the Twelve Ancestral Witches had been stirred up.
Hermoz continued speaking:
" Mu Chen has always been my goal."
My biggest wish back then was to catch up with him.
"Unfortunately, he stopped short of Primordial Chaos."
I've always remembered what happened back then...
Hermoz paused deliberately at this point, then feigned a look of lingering fear.
Zhu Rong sneered upon seeing this and snorted:
"What's wrong with talking about what happened back then?"
"If the old master hadn't actively sought death, Primordial Chaos might not have been able to defeat him."
"Damn Fate!"
"I don't know what I said to the old master back then, but it ultimately led him to willingly take his own life."
Tian Wu also wore an angry expression.
"If the old master were still alive, Mu Chen Universe would probably be no weaker than Primordial Chaos's now."
"We follow our old master, so why should we fear his Primordial Chaos?"
Even the usually cold-blooded Gonggong spoke up angrily.
"I've always suspected that there were other reasons behind the bet between the old master and Primordial Chaos that we don't know about."
"Moreover, it's not impossible that Primordial Chaos might fear that its old master could reach the same level as him."
Most of the Twelve Ancestral Witches expressed their opinions.
Lin Heng was quite troubled when he saw that the twelve people were losing control of their emotions.
Although he guessed Hermoz's intention.
However, Lin Heng could not refute what happened back then.
Moreover, Lin Heng couldn't ignore the inner thoughts of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
If this continues, things are starting to look bad.
However, at that moment, Hermoz suddenly stood up.
"Everyone, some urgent matters have just occurred in the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea, and I need to return to handle them."
"I will take my leave now. I will return another day with the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea, to apologize to you all."
Lin Heng and the others did not stop them.
Hermoz then followed and walked out of the palace.
Lin Heng watched Hermoz leave before his gaze returned to the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
