Chapter 107: Chapter 106: The Dilemma

Luo Wusheng currently feels mentally exhausted.

How did he overlook something so important? This shouldn’t have happened…

It was all because of that author who was always thinking about making a great NSFW Chapter. They waited until a later point in the story to reveal such an important event, causing him, who was completely focused on the Netherkin’s conspiracy, to not react in time!

In the original story, not all the Netherkin inside of the Netherkin Nation sided with the new Netherkin Monarch, the Netherking.

On the contrary, the vast majority of the Netherkin remained loyal to the previous Monarch, the Netherqueen. Otherwise, the Netherking wouldn’t have used the guise of rescuing the Netherqueen to attack the Immortal Nation and gain temporary support from those factions that are still loyal to her.

Although the significance of this action was unclear, there was no doubt that the Netherqueen still commanded considerable respect among the Netherkin of the Netherkin Nation.

After the former emperor of the Immortal Nation sealed the Netherqueen, her loyal followers had already begun planning her rescue. However, they encountered the powerful Netherking, forcing them to bide their time and endure for the moment.

Furthermore, the Immortal Nation was formidable, and they couldn’t be confident that they alone, with a few loyal servants willing to risk their lives, could break the restraints on the Ascending Immortality Lake where the Netherqueen was imprisoned.

It was only when the Netherking began plotting against the Royal City that they quickly devised a plan.

While they couldn’t directly break the restraint on the Ascending Immortality Lake due to the Immortal Nation’s powerhouse, what if someone could distract their attention?

This way, they might have a chance to launch a surprise attack during this period, causing chaos at the Ascending Immortality Lake before the cultivators of the Immortal Nation could react, and bring the Netherqueen back to the Netherkin Nation.

Thus, the Netherkin Nation, divided into two factions, the Pro-Netherqueen and the Pro-Netherking, began their actions.

The Pro-Netherking followed the orders of the Netherking and made plans against the Immortal Nation.

The Pro-Netherqueen faction, consisted of the loyal old servants of the Netherqueen. Were planning to wait for the opportune moment, perfect their preparations, and then rescue the Netherqueen in a swift and unexpected manner during the chaos made by the Pro-Netherking faction in the Royal City.

“But the problem is, are they truly prepared now…”

Luo Wusheng felt a headache coming on.

In the original story, this plot should have occurred half a month later, just a few days before the battle for the Human Immortal List began.

However, due to his actions, the Immortal Nation had already completed the Netherkin Extermination Operation tonight. Because he provided such specific information, even the Goat Netherkin, who was supposed to cause a little stir and make a brief appearance according to the original work, had been killed.

Moreover, the Immortal Nation acted even faster than in the original story, with the formidable Empress concluding the battle with just two sword strikes.

In other words, the Immortal Nation was currently at its peak strength and remained vigilant, expecting the unexpected. This was by no means an opportune moment.

As for the loyal old servants of the Netherqueen In the original story, their preparations were already rushed due to the Pro-Netherking sudden exposure in the Royal City, and they were already surrounded by the Immortal Nation top experts who were rushing to their location..

Sigh~ No matter how you think about it, it doesn’t seem like their preparations would be complete!

Can the Netherqueen still be rescued?

’No! The plot must not unfold like this!’

The Netherqueen must be saved!

Because— She is most likely a member of Little Yuli’s harem!

Thinking about the plot related to the Netherqueen in his current memories, Luo Wusheng felt somewhat helpless.

Although their interaction hadn’t reached the NSFW stage, there were some ambiguous cuddling and handholding moments between the Netherqueen and Little Yuli after the latter came out of the Ancient Heavenly Gate Arc.

Plus, the Netherqueen is a Peak Tribulation Crossing cultivator with an extraordinary beauty. It would be strange if she wasn’t a part of the protagonist’s harem!

Moreover, he had only accelerated the end of the Netherkin Nation’s plot by half a month. If he allowed the Netherkin Nation Pro-Netherqueen Faction attempt to rescue the Netherqueen to fail, who knows what chain reactions might occur in the subsequent plot?

So—

Although he felt a bit sorry for the Empress, he had to switch sides now.

Miss Netherqueen, the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect is here to help you escape!

…

“This sounds so ideal— but I’m just a mere Golden Core cultivator…”

Luo Wusheng appeared in the dense forest he had initially observed, looking up at the sky.

Through the obstruction of the forest, he could see the colossal ape with one foot already in the Ascending Immortality Lake— And across from it, an old cultivator wearing a Taoist robe and holding a dusting brush is facing the giant ape.

Although Luo Wusheng rushed here as soon as he realized that something might be amiss at the Ascending Immortality Lake, there were others who arrived even faster.

They were the powerhouses of the Immortal Nation.

The speed of their teleportation far surpassed his own, and there were even more than just Nascent Soul experts arriving.

“So, that are the Tribulation Crossing expert who didn’t make a move tonight for the Netherkin Extermination Operation? In other words, that colossal ape should also be at the Tribulation Crossing stage…”

Despite the considerable distance between them and the interference caused by several Nascent Soul cultivators from the Immortal Nation weakening the aftermath of the battle with the colossal ape, the oscillations reaching Luo Wusheng still made his mind tremble.

’No wonder the Ascending Immortality Lake, created with immense power by the former emperor of the Immortal Nation, seems to have bestowed blessings on everything outside of it. Even faced with such power, there doesn’t seem to be much change…’

Luo Wusheng sighed inwardly, realizing that he couldn’t participate in such a battle.

With his feeble arms and legs, it would be difficult for him to even approach the edge of the Ascending Immortality Lake at this moment, let alone rescue the Netherqueen from its depths.

’Why did that bald coachman bring me here? It can’t be that he wants to watch me get swept up in the aftermath and self-destruct, right?’

Leaning against a tree, Luo Wusheng fell into deep thought.

The bald coachman had appeared in front of him three times so far, and each time, it had been increasingly bizarre, carrying a sense of mysterious significance.

The coachman’s cultivation was definitely not low, so if he wanted to kill Luo Wusheng, why didn’t he simply attack directly?

Well, there was no point obsessing over such matters. Besides, those bald monks of the Buddhist Sect were a bunch of enigmatic old coins. No one knew what they were thinking, and if Luo Wusheng guessed wrong, it would only lead to his own demise.

’Now the biggest issue is how to successfully rescue the Netherqueen…’

Luo Wusheng acknowledged his own limitations. He already had a clear understanding of that. In fact, he was even considering running away now.

However, it had all escalated to this point primarily because he had changed the course of the plot.

Luo Wusheng didn’t care about other changes and was even looking forward to events that deviated from the original work. But when it came to the protagonist’s harem, he had to be cautious, very cautious.

’…According to common sense, shouldn’t she be helped by the world due to being the protagonist’s future harem? There is no way that they would simply let her be restrained till the end of time, right?’

The Holy Saint of the Demon Sect couldn’t shake off the feeling that things hadn’t been going well for him recently.

He simply wanted to expand and strengthen the Demon Artifact Pavilion and have an audience with the Empress. But then that insignificant Rat Netherkin appeared out of nowhere and caused trouble, forcing him to trade the information about the Netherkin Nation’s plot with the Immortal Nation, leading to the current situation.

Moreover, he nearly had his favorability-rasing scheme exposed by that fake Diviner…

If only the representative from the Heavenly Divination Tower wasn’t that troublemaker Gao Shi. If a genuine Diviner had come, they might have been able to foresee the good and bad outcomes of his action, making him not forget about the Netherqueen rescue operation.

Then he wouldn’t be in this dilemma, trapped in a no-win situation.

He wonders what the Tower Master of the Heavenly Divination Tower is thinking, sending that kind of disciple outside of the tower.

Isn’t she afraid of Gao Shi tarnishing the reputation of her tower?
