BOOM! BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Lu Qingchen’s determined roar turned into a super-heavy crystal bomb weighing a million tons and exploded deep inside Li Yao’s soul, blowing up the barrier that sealed the core of his soul.

Ina trance, Li Yao vaguely saw himself floating on the blue planet in the past. He swore to himself that he would return one day and complete the Vulture Plan to destroy the planet!

Then came Lu Qingchen’s shout.

“Even if I am just an insignificant speck of dust, the gods and devils that are above everything in the universe will not be able to control my trajectory. If the universe is truly a puppet show destined for me, then I will destroy the universe!”

Destroy the Earth!

Destroy the universe!

Destroy the Earth!

Destroy the universe!

Destruction. Destruction. Earth. Earth. Universe. Universe!

In that moment, Li Yao, who was standing on Earth, overlapped with Lu Qingchen, who was standing proudly in front of Fuxi. Their shadows condensed into a key that opened the secrets that had been buried for a long time deep inside Li Yao’s memory.

“Breaking this endless cycle that repeats for billions of years, freeing all the billions of living creatures who have fallen into the endless cycle of reincarnation, destroying the earth, and ushering in a new life. This is the Vulture Plan. This is the mission that I will carry out to the end! AAHHHHHHH!”

Li Yao felt that his soul was like a butterfly that had broken out of its cocoon. A certain brand-new strength was spurting out crazily from the depths of his soul, licking every ripple of his soul like endless flames, trying to reconstruct his soul so that he could be reborn!

Li Yao roared silently. His soul was burning so furiously that he could barely contain the surging waves. The crimson flames were about to appear in the real world.

“What are you doing exactly? Do you want to be discovered by Fuxi?””

The mental devil shrieked and tried to stop Li Yao’s soul waves, but it could not stop Li Yao’s unstoppable urge. It cried anxiously, “Bear with it. You must hold it back!”

“I know, but it is really unbearable!”

Li Yao shouted, “I never thought that I would be touched by Lu Qingchen one day. I feel that I am expanding uncontrollably, as if I will explode in the very next second!

“No. My hot blood and sense of justice are both surging. I can’t hold it any longer. I have to blow up the head of the Fuxi and rescue Lu Qingchen no matter what!”

‘The mental devil was silent for a moment. Perhaps sensing that Li Yao’s sense of justice had expanded to the limits, it heaved a long sigh and stopped trying to stop him. “Alright. If you are really going to take action, you will have to be more patient!”

Li Yao said in pain, “Huh?”

“This is definitely not a good time to take action. Our long wait will only be wasted.

The mental devil reminded him, “Wait a moment. When the Fuxi devours most of Lu Qingchen with his computational ability, he will be like a boa that has just swallowed a large animal. His stomach will almost explode, and he will need a long time to digest and absorb the food. That will be his weakest

moment, and it will be the best time for us to take action!

“No matter how deeply moved you are by Lu Qingchen, you must not act recklessly. Otherwise, not only will you be unable to save him, you will also get yourself killed and everyone else will be killed. Do you understand?”

“Understood!”

Li Yao stared at Lu Qingchen, who would rather die than submit, and nodded reluctantly. His soul was like a viper that had been hibernating for a long time and was ready to attack at any moment. He gnashed his teeth and said, “Let’s wait a while longer, then

Lu Qingchen’s roars were swept away by the surging tides of his soul, but they were soon suppressed by the light cluster of the Fuxis. The latter tumed a deaf ear to his bold words and said casually, “Well said. It is quite inspiring. I wonder, when all the citizens of the federation fall into hell, can they say

words as marvelous as yours?”

“There’s no need to threaten me with the people of the federation. Do you think I’ma saint who will fall for such tricks?”

Struggling in extreme pain, Lu Qingchen shouted desperately, “If everyone’s fate is in your hands and you can create, arrange, and manipulate them as you please, however comfortable a paradise you create for them is, it will be a different form of hell, just like ‘Eternal Brightness.

“I firmly believe that no man of the federation is willing to live in such a hell. They will rise up against you, break the hell, and destroy you once and for all!

“In the past, I made a mistake. My mistake was not that I planned and promoted the Phantom Plan, but that I did not trust my compatriots enough. My compatriots, who had infinite courage and wisdom, did not find more people to discuss and communicate with, nor did they act rashly without the help

of most people. They ended up like my grandfather.

“However, when my remaining soul drifted in the depths of the sea of stars and replayed everything about the Phantom Plan, after countless unforgettable self-analyses, | finally realized what the problem was and saw the strength of my compatriots clearly!

“Hehe. If you want to take over the Star Glory Federation, go ahead and try. Although the federation is small, it is completely different from the imperium and the Holy Alliance. If you dare to extend your claws to the federation, my compatriots will certainly stop you, just like they stopped me before!

“Interesting. I’m very interested in your high opinion of your compatriots. Which heroes in the federation deserve your trust?”

“Like… ‘Vulture Li Yao’? Do you think he can avenge you and destroy me?”

Lu Qingchen’s face was obviously twisted.

After hesitating for a long time, he said unwillingly, “Alright. It’s true that I’m angry at his shortsightedness, stupidity, hypocrisy, and pettiness, but… yes! If I can’t destroy you, I believe that he can destroy you in my place and avenge me!”

“AR”

Li Yao and the mental devil exclaimed at the same time.

It was perhaps the most touching comment Li Yao had ever heard.

Compliments from the enemy were always particularly intoxicating.

Even he, who had no sense of shame—no, he was someone who regarded reputation as fleeting clouds—could not help but feel somewhat embarrassed.

“Isee.”

The light cluster of the Fuxis blinked with subtle ripples. “I don’t understand.”

Lu Qingchen was dazed. “What?”

“Idon’t understand why you think so highly of the Cultivators of the federation, especially the guy who is known as ‘the father of the federation and the supreme of the three worlds’. You are so confident that he will defeat me.

“Then, why did he behave like a cowardly turtle from the beginning to the end? Why did he curl up in a comer and listen to our conversation so wretchedly that he did not dare show his face even now?”

“What?” Lu Qingchen exclaimed.

“What?” Li Yao exclaimed.

“What?”

Two particularly bright spots condensed in the cluster of light and darted toward Li Yao’s soul. More precisely, they were the monitoring crystal cameras that Li Yao’s soul had invaded.

Hundreds of monitoring crystal cameras were on the bridge of Ultimate Rescue, covering every inch of the space nearby. But it would be too much of a lie to say that it was a coincidence that Fuxi was staring at the crystal camera controlled by Li Yao.

Li Yao felt that his soul was frozen.

Lu Qingchen was dumbfounded, too.

“Tm sorry that I didn’t tell you about it earlier. But at the beginning, I was only suspicious and could not confirm his existence or locate him. That’s why we wasted so much time.

Fuxi apologized to Lu Qingchen. “You are right. I was indeed stalling for time, but it was not meant for you. You are already a fish swimming in a cauldron. There is no need to stall. Even if I need you to surrender sincerely, there is no hurry.

“However, I received two unexpected reports almost at the same time a few days ago. One was your release of the “Taotie Virus’, and the other was the destruction of the ‘Devil’s Child Project’ on Black Castle. The subsequent accident is inconsistent with your usual style of crime. It is unlikely that you did it.

“since then, I’ve been suspecting that somebody else besides you has snuck into the Star Glory Federation and even infiltrated our Spiritual Nexus. The guy is as dangerous as you are, and he has a vague connection with you. It’s possible that they share the same origin.

“When these two conditions are crossed, the identity of this person is obvious.

“At the cost of a lot of computational ability, after repeated deduction and thorough calculation, I also calculated that the man might have snuck into ‘Ultimate Rescue’ along your route and hid himself next to you and me.

“If you find it unbelievable, you can consider it my ‘intuition’.

“Of course, intuition doesn’t count. That’s why I threw out a lot of intelligence, hoping to trigger his soul disturbance and lock onto his location.

“But I didn’t expect that the earthshaking intelligence such as Flood Tide Legion’, ‘Black Screen Spawn’, ‘Cosmic Egg’, and ‘Cosmic Brain’ wouldn’t be able to tempt him into revealing the slightest hint of chaos.

“Then, I threatened you on purpose to turn the Star Glory Federation into a living hell. I thought that such an evil plan would definitely force the righteous man known as the ‘Father of the Federation’ to come out. I didn’t expect that he would still turn a deaf ear and cower to the end.

“At that time, I was almost desperate. I thought that my ‘intuition’ was wrong and that I was too paranoid. He did not sneak into Ultimate Rescue’ but fled back to the Imperium of True Human Beings a long time ago. In my deduction, such a possibility did exist.

“Twas about to give up scanning and locking onto him, but when you said ‘destroy the universe’, a tiny ripple finally leaked out of his soul and gave him away.

“Look, even after I explained everything so clearly, he still refused to give up. He wanted to play dead all the way and refused to show up. Does he still think that I’m bluffing and that I can’t find him?

“To be honest, I’ve analyzed the personalities of thousands of human beings, but I’ve never seen such sleazy people… The father of the Star Glory Federation is indeed… sophisticated and good at forbearing!
