Dao Cheng's expression changed drastically. Mo Duona? Why would Mo Duona kill Pan Hu and Fourth Heaven? Taihe cursed furiously, "Audacious! How dare he kill Pan Hu?" Su Yu said, "He's probably not dead. I didn't notice any falling moons. He has probably been captured. Are they trying to negotiate with us?" He looked at Taihe nervously and said, "Martial Uncle, this...I didn't want to flee. But I thought it would be important for someone to inform the two of you about this as well. I did not flee to save myself!" He was showing an extreme level of fear. Fleeing from battle was not acceptable regardless of race. Taihe had an unsightly expression, but Dao Cheng consoled him, "It's fine. You wouldn't be able to help much against a Pseudo Invincible anyway. You did the right thing." Su Yu said, "No, I'm not that smart. But I never intended to give up on Senior Brother Pan Hu. I only fled because that was the only choice. I was worried that you would fall into Mo Duona's trap if you didn't learn about this!" Taihe didn't even know what to say anymore. Why was this guy making so many excuses? He fled because he was scared. That was obvious. However, Taihe merely frowned and said nothing. There were fewer and fewer of their people in the mansion anymore. It was pointless to punish Ling Heng. In any case, Dao Cheng was right. Ling Heng wouldn't be of much help against a Pseudo Invincible. Ling Heng was right. At the very least, his escape had allowed them to receive a timely update on what had happened. Otherwise, they would remain completely clueless. After giving Su Yu a glare, Taihe scanned their surroundings with suns and moons spinning in his eyes. However, he couldn't find anyone in the vicinity. With a frown, he asked Dao Cheng, "Prince, what is Mo Duona planning?" Dao Cheng did not answer. Instead, he stood there silently while playing with the character in his hand. Su Yu grew curious. What was this? He had noticed this habit of Dao Cheng as well. After a while, Dao Cheng paled while his character burst apart. After coughing a mouthful of blood, he spoke solemnly, "A disastrous result. Martial Uncle, Senior Brother, let go of this. This is fate. We will have our revenge in the future, not now. Mo Duona might not be able to live a long life. There is no need for us to face him now..." Su Yu nodded gladly. Taihe gave Su Yu a glare. Why was this guy so relieved at hearing that? Su Yu lowered his head and said, "Martial Uncle, he...has the support of a Pseudo Invincible. Unless we...we can get a Pseudo Invincible to help us as well, we can't face him. But...can we find anyone willing to offend Mo Duona for us? He is a future body of the Devil Pseudo Emperor. Perhaps even the Pseudo Devil Emperor himself is paying close attention to him. If we fight them, not even Immortal King Xuan He will help us." Su Yu suggested earnestly, "Martial Uncle, forget about this. I'm very close to Martial Brother Pan Hu as well, but we should prioritize the prince. Who will protect the prince if something happens to you? I don't matter. I can fight, but I'm too weak to make a difference..." Taihe was tired of this. He snapped, "Enough with the excuses. Do you really have the courage to fight them? You wouldn't have fled otherwise." Su Yu answered awkwardly, "Martial Uncle, I—" "Shut up!" Taihe snorted and looked at Dao Cheng, "Prince...do we really let this slide?" After a short silence, Dao Cheng answered, "We can't do anything about it. Senior Brother Pan Hu might still be alive, but we have no way of saving him." Suddenly, Su Yu said, "Right, we can contact the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion! Fourth Heaven was captured as well!" Dao Cheng shook his head, "The Heaven Department head has something more important to do. He won't challenge the devils for a mere elder." Su Yu had a regretful expression, but he was also relieved to hear that. His attitude further infuriated Taihe. Why was this guy always so useless when it mattered? Yes, he could understand Ling Heng's fear. That was a Pseudo Invincible. However, Ling Heng was still too indecisive. He was also too cowardly. If he could abandon Pan Hu out of fear this time, would he dare to fight the next time there was trouble? How annoying. Taihe was feeling more regretful about the fact that the survivor was this guy instead of Pan Hu. Before long, the three rejoined the group of immortals. Xuan Wuji noticed Dao Cheng's calm expression, Taihe's furious expression, and Ling Heng's gloomy expression. He smiled and asked, "What happened? If you need help, do let us know. We're on the same side here." Dao Cheng smiled and said, "It's nothing important. My apologies for making you wait--" Just then, Su Yu cut in and said, "Prince Xuan Wuji, Mo Duona is challenging the immortal race! He killed my Senior Brother Pan Hu!" Dao Cheng looked at Su Yu with a frown. However, Su Yu maintained a worried expression as he sent Dao Cheng a voice transmission, "Prince, we should let them face Mo Duona instead. I'm worried that Mo Duona will keep his eyes on us. We should let Xuan Wuji keep him busy instead." Dao Cheng was left speechless. Was this guy taking Xuan Wuji for a fool? Would Xuan Wuji fall for this? Unsurprisingly, Xuan Wuji's expression turned stiff upon hearing Mo Duona's name. He smiled and said, "Brother Ling Heng, Mo Duona has never involved himself with us. Are you sure—" Su Yu hurriedly said, "Yes! I'm sure! It's Mo Duona and a Pseudo Invincible! He even arrogantly declared the immortal race garbage!" Xuan Wuji's face turned unsightly. He was not displeased with Mo Duona. Rather, he was displeased with Ling Heng. Mo Duona was not the type to say something like that. Ling Heng was exagerating. Su Yu raised his voice and continued, "I'm telling the truth! With that Pseudo Invincible beside him, he called us all garbage. He claimed that any random devil can kick us all out of the Heaven Index..." Finally, one of the young geniuses lost patience and said, "Senior Ling Heng, you need to watch your mouth." Su Yu grumbled inwardly that he had nothing to watch. What about it? This was his intention. They all knew he was spouting rubbish. But they couldn't prove it. Yet they couldn't ignore it either. With this, they would be forced to at least ask Mo Duona about this or the reputation of the immortal race would fall apart. Everyone knew Ling Heng was instigating them against Mo Duona. This was all Xuan Wuji's fault. Why did he ask that question? Now, even Xuan Wuji was finding this hard to handle. He felt terrible. Damn this Ling Heng! Was this Dao Cheng's trick? At this point, he had to handle the matter delicately. He couldn't completely ignore Ling Heng's words. That would destroy their reputation. But Mo Duona wasn't so easy to handle. Xuan Wuji started cursing Ling Heng inwardly. He also cursed himself for asking that question. With a frown, Dao Cheng said, "Senior Brother, do not talk drivel. Both you and Senior Brother Pan Hu provoked Mo Duona for no reason. As a result, you were taught a lesson. Don't try to escalate the matter." He was not inclined to bother Mo Duona because of this. It was too dangerous. He could sense the approach of a disaster. This could get extremely dangerous. Even with Xuan Wuji's help, he still didn't want to face Mo Duona. Su Yu gloomily said, "Yes, you're right. I...was blind. I'm sorry. Please forgive me, Princes. Mo Duona did not say all those words. Those were my own words..." But Xuan Wuji couldn't drop this matter here. He was the leader of the younger generation among the immortals. He had no choice but to ask, "Did something happen to Senior Brother Pan Hu?" Su Yu gloomily said, "Yeah. Mo Duona captured him. I'm not sure if he's still alive..." "We're all minding our own business. Why did Mo Duona provoke us for no reason?" Xuan Wuji frowned and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Ling Heng. Since I'm already aware of this, I will talk to Mo Duona." Su Yu hurriedly said, "I only want him to release my senior brother!" Xuan Wuji was tired of this. He did not want to meet Mo Duona at all. All would be fine if Mo Duona agreed to release Pan Hu. However, he would lose face in the event of a refusal. It wasn't like he wanted to declare war against Mo Duona. This was such a difficult position. Why did he ask that question? Why? He greatly regretted that. He cursed at himself. He also cursed at Ling Heng. This was an obvious attempt to instigate him into confronting Mo Duona. How annoying. He couldn't even ignore this matter. As the leader of the younger generation, he could not afford to drop this matter. The young geniuses were watching. If he took a step back, he would not be able to win their respect anymore. That would jeopardize his position as the leader of his generation. Xuan Wuji smiled again and said, "It is only natural that we do something about this. Come on. Let's go." Dao Cheng frowned and said, "Brother Wuji, the building is still locked..." "There is no rush." Xuan Wuji smiled, "It's not like the building will run away from us. After so many years of exploration, I doubt there are any obvious treasures left in there. We can take our time. For now, we need to remind Mo Duona that he's not undefeatable. He shouldn't get too confident just because he has a Pseudo Invincible by his side." He sounded brave, but he was essentially telling everyone to go with him. There were eight geniuses among them. Additionally, there were six ninth-stage Sunmoons, one eighth-stage Sunmoon, and a Pseudo Invincible acting as their dao protectors. Meanwhile, Mo Duona had the habit of moving alone. He only had a single Pseudo Invincible by his side. Seeing that they were agreeing to go, Su Yu hurriedly said, "Be careful, Princes. Mo Duona is unreasonable and barbaric. I will stay behind and watch this building while you're gone! I won't allow anyone to enter!" Dao Cheng didn't even know what to say anymore. After forcing Xuan Wuji to go, Ling Heng had decided to stay behind. Did he lose all his courage after one encounter with Mo Duona? What an embarrassment. Annoyed, Taihe sent a voice transmission, "Shut your mouth! You must go! Ling Heng, do not assume that I won't teach you a lesson when needed. Stop embarrassing our line." With a helpless expression, Su Yu said, "Forget it, then. I'll go. We'll face Mo Duona together." Xuan Wuji was glad to hear that. He snorted inwardly. How could this guy stay behind after forcing them to go? He must be dreaming. Su Yu walked toward Dao Cheng and sent a voice transmission, "Prince, let them go. We'll find a chance to sneak off later. I suspect Mo Duona is here for you. Did you offend him before?" Dao Cheng disagreed. With Xuan Wuji around, he felt safe enough to meet Mo Duona. He wanted to figure out what was happening. Things could prove troublesome if he were really Mo Duona's target. Hearing Su Yu's words, he replied through voice transmission, "I don't recall offending him. We did offend Zhan Wushuang, but that has nothing to do with Mo Duona. He is arrogant enough to never pay us much attention. I can't think of anything..." Dao Cheng frowned. Was Mo Duona targeting his character? Just what was Mo Duona planning? It was pointless to worry too much. He would know after meeting Mo Duona. Xuan Wuji asked, "Ling Heng, where is he?" Su Yu shook his head, "I'm not sure. I doubt he's still at the same place." Xuan Wuji wanted to say that they should forget about this since they didn't know where Mo Duona was. But he couldn't bring himself to say those words. It would be too embarrassing. Xuan Wuji continued pretending to be calm and said, "It's fine. Mo Duona isn't the type to hide himself. We can ask around. Someone must know his current whereabouts." Su Yu said nothing. Inwardly, he was thinking that this wasn't his fault. Xuan Wuji was the one volunteering to go. So be it. He was more than happy to see this happening. They would be doing the job for him while he waited around to collect their corpses. With one Pseudo Invincible and six ninth-stage Sunmoons here, they should be able to handle one Pseudo Invincible, right? It would be even better if they could kill Mo Duona as well. After all, Mo Duona had seen through his disguise. Su Yu was worried that Mo Duona would expose his identity in public. That would be troublesome. But eventually, Su Yu decided to notify Mo Duona about this. He was worried that Mo Duona would really expose him before dying. Then again, it was unlikely that Xuan Wuji and the others would have the courage to kill Mo Duona. The frequency Mo Duona gave him could be used to contact each other within a small radius. However, it wasn't too useful. A single shout of an Invincible would be far more effective at transmitting messages. Then again, it was good enough for his current purpose. Su Yu tried using it. Even though his sea of willpower was covered by the Culture Tomb, he could still freely utilize his willpower. Before long, he proceeded to send a message, "I found some helpers. One Pseudo Invincible, six ninth-stage Sunmoons, and one eighth-stage Sunmoon. Is this enough to kill your Pseudo Invincible? But these people might not have the courage to start the fight. Think of a way to provoke them into fighting. This is all. Remember, I'm not Su Yu."
