Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 573: Hiding Behind

Lan and Xue Wei were both feeling somewhat uncomfortable. If this had been a plan hatched long ago, then many things would be explained, but at the same time, certain parts were also sounding rather unreasonable.

"If it is preplanned, then the seal on your power would put you in a very dangerous situation, but after arriving at the Ghost Realm you have not encountered anything too dangerous."

Lan also felt that it was a bit confusing. If there was someone hidden behind, and they had been planning for this all along, then they would naturally take this chance to get rid of him.

The seal he had made on his power would not be broken even if he was close to death, so if he were to face off against an Overlord with his current strength, he would, without a doubt, die.

"Wait!" Xue Wei suddenly remembered a certain detail he had forgotten previously.

"Your friend that arrived. That guy with the white hair! How strong is he?"

Lan instantly knew who he was talking about and his frown deepened.

"It’s Hui Yue. He is an Overlord, and a good friend of my father. If anything were to happen to me, he would know it instantly, and his strength is above the average Overlord, so I assume that if anyone is behind this, they would feel a certain hesitation to attack, in case he might try to get revenge."

Xue Wei’s expression turned solemn and he nodded his head. His brows furrowed, and he could not help but feel that things were very confusing.

"But it is all extremely weird. Mo Lian died due to her genes being defective as a mixed race, which, in turn, was what caused you to change the laws of the world; making it impossible for mixed races to create descendants.

"This was around ten thousand years ago, but the changes that happened here in the Ghost Realm also took place around that time.

"If they had this plan, it is something that has been in the works for thousands of years, but everything seems to have been caused by our own decisions.

"Not to mention, how could they know that my mother would fall in love with a normal human man? This is causing me to be extremely confused."

Lan also felt that something was a bit hard to explain.

"I have heard about many impossible things throughout my life, but I have not heard of those who can foresee the future. However, this is the only explanation I can find."

The whole situation was confusing, and they did not know how to handle it with their current lack of knowledge.

"It might be too quick to determine that there is someone who is planning it all, but I would rather be alert and assume the worst than to be caught by surprise and suffer. However, the scope of experts involved in this scheme, should it be human-made, is great. And even you, an Overlord, have been involved without noticing."

The severity of the situation was making both Lan and Xue Wei feel an unprecedented vigilance that they had never experienced before. Although they were not scared, they felt uncomfortable, and they understood the danger that was connected to their assumption.

"Can you forcefully take control of this Formation of Life?"

Xue Wei frowned as he looked at the formation in front of him.

"If you can take control of this world, we will remove the laws that limit the ghosts ability to ascend. Although it will no longer be possible for new ghosts to arrive within this realm, it will be possible for those who work hard to find a way to escape.

"We will bring Mo Lian and that branch leader along with us as we leave, and then rush to discuss with Mr. Hui about the guess we had.

"Although you are officially an Overlord, your strength is currently still sealed, and we might require his assistance to investigate certain things."

Lan nodded his head. With the current situation, this would be the most suitable solution. Although Xue Wei had initially wished to reunite with Tie Haolong, he also understood that what he was doing now was giving his friend an opportunity, and it was up to this lost soul to grasp the chance.

Had Xue Wei not been aware of the risk that was looming at the back, he might have been more casual, and taken some more time to investigate the whereabouts of his friend, but now that he understood the danger, he had to return to the world of the living as soon as possible.

"Can you look for that Ox-headed man?"

Xue Wei asked Lan, as he was preparing to forcefully gain control of the Formation of Life in front of him.

"We can find him when I am the new Sovereign of this domain."

A cold gleam flashed across Lan’s eyes as he felt murderous intentions towards the Ox-headed man as he thought that this person might be involved with those threatening figures that kept to the shadows.

Xue Wei nodded his head and sat down to allow Lan enough time to take over the Formation of Life.

Fortunately, the previous sovereign had not been in the Ghost Realm often. He had only claimed the formation, but never cared for the world, nor attempted to create any connection between the two, making it easy for Lan to destroy their link.

His energy slowly flowed into the formation, and he felt how he was gaining control over the realm little by little.

The Ghost Realm was desolate and poor, but Lan could feel that a frightening amount of energy was hidden within. If he paid some attention to it, he believed that the Ghost Realm could become a great realm on its own, after life would be invited to enter.
