Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

Chapter 159 - A bet

Translated by: La0o9

The white-robed Venerable Xin evaluated the three Saints, silently thinking about their scheme.

This scheme has been brewing for such a long time, at least a few dozens years before even the Demon Lord descended.

But right now, the Demon Lord had already left for another world, making him take over the battle in this world.

All the outer realm demons had already gone with the Demon Lord to some other world to enjoy their spoils of victory.

Yet they didn’t allow him and his people here to come with and share even the tiniest bit.

How deplorable!

The war has already reached the stage where he’s at the end of his rope, having no other choice but to risk it all.

The red-faced Daoist is Xuanyuan Tianzun, as long as he’s fooled, his plan is already half-done.

Bai Hua Fairy’s strength is formidable, but she’s normally very lazy and doesn’t bother with scheming too much.

And the Great Monk of Sorrow is even easier, as long as the other 2 Saints agree on something, the Great Monk of Sorrow will always silently accept and help out.

Because of that, the most important part of this plan is to convince Xuanyuan Tianzun.

He must succeed with the next step of the plan, otherwise, when the Demon Lord comes back, his life is as good as forfeit.

After thinking that much, all of Venerable Xin’s hesitation was swept away.

“Amitabha, fellow Dao seeker Xin, long time no see” the Great Monk of Sorrow greeted him first.

Venerable Xin responded: “No need for small talk, I just want to ask, do you want to fight this battle for real?”

“Which time was it not real?” Bai Hua Fairy scoffed.

Venerable Xin looked at her and smiled: “Xie Dao Ling, no need to be so serious”

Xie Dao Ling also stared back at him, saying: “If you lot aren’t willing to be serious, then get your tails off this world, go and find the next world with those outer realm demons”

Venerable Xin sighed: “Now if it only that simple. We all must ensure the safety of our home first before being able to move on with our paths”

“Then we have nothing to talk about, a battle will have to happen regardless” as soon as Xuanyuan Tianzun finished speaking, he was already holding a talisman in his hand.

The talisman let out a glowing light, seeming to only need Xuanyuan Tianzun to swing his hand to activate the powerful spell within.

“Don’t be hasty” Venerable Xin raised his hand and stopped him.

“What, do you want to surrender?” Xuanyuan Tianzun asked without any expectations.

“Our side have over a dozen, your side only have three, if there’s ever a surrender, it will be you” a Beast Saint couldn’t endure and berated.

Venerable Xin glared back at him, shutting up that Beast Saint.

Venerable Xin spoke: “If we were to fight seriously, whether it’s us or you, someone will have to die here”

“Both you and I know the monumental amount of hardship and effort we had to go through in order to reach this realm of Saints, no one would really want to risk all that in a battle, do they?”

His tone was calm and sincere, making everyone couldn’t help but empathize with him.

“Not to mention” seeing no one spoke up, Venerable Xin was deeply satisfied and continued: “Just like how you don’t want human cultivators to die meaninglessly, I also don’t want our demon beast subordinates to die on this battlefield”

“Then what do you want?” Xie Dao Ling asked.

“How about we make a bet, we won’t risk our lives, we’ll only use the results to determine win and loss” Venerable Xin smiled and said.

“What happens if we win? And what happens if we lose?” Xuanyuan Tianzun asked.

“If you win, we will immediately surrender, swearing on our demon hearts to be your servants from now on” Venerable Xin said.

“That’s fair, then what if we lose?” Xuanyuan Tianzun asked further.

“Then the three Saints must leave this world, giving up this land to us” Venerable Xin smiled.

Xie Dao Ling suddenly spoke: “Before the outer realm demons came here, both humans and beasts were able to coexist for over thousands of years, why is it that we can’t stand each other anymore?”

Venerable Xin thought about the old days, then sighed: “Different wants create different paths”

“That’s not it” Xie Dao Ling watched him closely and declared: “There must be something in it for you, something so valuable that you can’t refuse, that you’d be willing to become dogs for the outer realm demons to get”

“Then how about this” Venerable Xin thought about it and answered: “If you win, we won’t just swear to become your servants, we’ll also tell you that secret”

The three Saints exchanged looks and fell into silence.

They were obviously using inner sight to discuss how to deal with this.

Seeing that, Venerable Xin didn’t rush them and patiently waited.

After a while.

Xuanyuan Tianzun asked: “How do you want to bet?”

The white-robed old man was extremely joyful inside, but his face remained calm and spoke: “Very simple, our two sides will enter battle, 10 attacks is the limit. The side is more wounded loses”

“1-one-1?” Xie Dao Ling asked.

“That’s not possible” Venerable Xin clasped his fist and spoke, “no single person on our side is able to take on the three Saints of humanity on their own. Let us loosen it a bit, 2-on-1”

Beasts increase their cultivation quite easily, but their strength doesn’t match their realm, even 2-on-1 is very hard for the Beast Saint to win against a Saint of humanity.

With 10 attacks, it’s very difficult for any side to kill the other, not to mention there are also others watching from outside.

Seeing that the rules are fair, they only needed to think about it a bit to feel tempted.

“However, if you lose, will you follow us so easily?” Bai Hua Fairy asked again.

“Both you and I are Saints, what would going back on our words do besides making a joke out of ourselves?” Venerable Xin replied.

“Very well, then we’ll bet” Bai Hua Fairy accepted.

The other two Saints also nodded their head.

Venerable Xin was a bit surprised looking at Xie Dao Ling, feeling that she was a bit too easygoing today.

But no matter, what I have to do has not changed…

“Very well, fighting here would be too easy to harm our subordinates, please follow me” the white-robed Venerable Xin swung his sleeves and headed towards Demon Clouds River.

The three Saints thought for a bit, then followed.

This area is between the two armies, so if the Saints fight here, there might really be casualties.

Seeing they all went at the same time, Venerable Xin smirked.

The main point isn’t what conditions are given, it’s not even whether or not they accepted the bet. The true main point is to have the three Saints cross Demon Clouds River at the same time.

As long as all three Saints enter Demon Clouds River, whatever happens next isn’t up to them!

Venerable Xin was feeling extremely glad.

The three Saints will all die here without a doubt, unless they break open Space and escape into the Chaotic Space Current.

But if they do that, it’ll be very hard for them to return, also posing no threat to him.

The rest of humanity will be as good as done after this.

The entire world shall become my spoils of war, when the Demon Lord knows about this, I’ll definitely be praised.

And those outer realm demons that dared to look down on me shall all become my subordinates, with me holding their lives in my hand.

The white-robed old man was so emotional that he had to try his best to calm himself down and maintain his stable flight.

The dozen Beast Saints followed behind the three Saints of humanity, stopping as soon as they were above Demon Clouds River.

“Stop, here will be fine” the white-robed old man looked around and seems to arbitrarily picked a spot.

Everyone stopped their flight.

“Then we shall begin” he rubbed his hand, “10 attacks will be the limit, let’s try our best to not harm each other too much”

“Who will go first?” Xuanyuan Tianzun clasped his hand behind his back, flying between the two sides.

“I think we’d better just have all three fights at once” the white-robed old man smiled mysteriously and pointed at six Beast Saints.

At his cue, the six Beast Saints all went out at the same time, flying towards Xuanyuan Tianzun.

Six Beast Saints is enough to overwhelm and immediately kill Xuanyuan Tianzun.

As the Great Monk of Sorrow and Bai Hua Fairy felt something wasn’t right, they instantly flew up and stood beside Xuanyuan Tianzun.

Very good, everything is going according to plan, the white-robed old man silently said to himself.
