Chapter 1073: Seeds of Doubt

The devil who had died had been a close ally of his, and its death greatly reduced his leverage.

"It was merely an instinctual sense of danger. How would I know that others wouldn’t sense it as well? Besides, intuition is something that can’t be easily explained," Dalamandur retorted irritably. "And even if I had known, I had no obligation to warn them."

Menruch’s oppressive aura intensified.

"Everyone, stop arguing. I just want to know if they still have any more Thunderstrike Orb. If they use a few more, we won’t be able to hold our ground." The cold gaze of a beast landed squarely on Dalamandur.

Dalamandur cursed inwardly as all attention turned to him. "I don’t know."

"You know it’s Thunderstrike Orb, but you don’t know how many they have?" Clearly, no one believed him.

"I truly don’t know. The name Thunderstrike Orb is something I’ve only heard of in passing," the Dalamandur replied indifferently.

"You believe him? Just now, Amalia tried to kill him. But the moment he sensed it, he immediately pretended to be pushed back and withdrew from the battle."

Kenny Lin’s voice came from across the battlefield, carrying an unbridled, mocking laugh.

"Think carefully. Doesn’t it seem like this Dalamandur has been hiding a lot from you? For example, he knew there were suspicious things going on but deliberately kept silent. He’s leading you to your deaths, and none of you noticed. What a bunch of fools!"

It was a blatant attempt to sow discord.

But because it was simple, it worked.

The group, already wary of each other, didn’t voice their suspicions aloud but became even more distrustful, especially toward Dalamandur.

This Dalamandur had always claimed he wanted to exterminate the Nine Heaven Pixiu species, yet up to now, he hadn’t made any significant progress—not even managing to kill a single Pixiu.

Realizing that Kenny Lin was targeting him, Dalamandur snarled bitterly, "You believe him?"

"Of course not. Since we’ve allied, there’s at least some trust," a human cultivator replied insincerely.

"Exactly. Dalamandur, the most pressing task is to deal with them," said a demonic beast whose true form was a Giant Earth Bear, smiling falsely.

If anyone here harbored the greatest distrust of Dalamandur, it was this Giant Earth Bear.

Having dealt with Dalamandur in the past, he fully believed Kenny Lin’s words.

Dalamandur could easily see through their facade but chose not to expose it.

He sneered coldly.

Among this group, he doubted anyone was truly sincere.

"Since we know he’s trying to sow discord, why are we dragging this out? Whether they have more Thunderstrike Orb or not, as long as we avoid being caught together, we should be fine," a wild cultivator said icily.

"Dalamandur, you’re coming with us," Menruch said, his frosty gaze fixed on him.

"What, don’t you suspect me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll stab you in the back?" Dalamandur replied blandly.

"Cut the nonsense. If you try any tricks, don’t blame us for being ruthless!" Menruch had no patience for his games and flew forward without waiting for a response.

The Dalamandur’s expression darkened, cursing inwardly.

That human wasn’t wrong—they truly were a bunch of fools!

If a little scheming could kill Amalia and the others, he wouldn’t hesitate to try.

However, that wasn’t the case.

He still needed these people to help eliminate Amalia and her group.

How could he let them die now?

Facing the distrustful gazes and guarded actions of the others, the Dalamandur had no words.

Trust had never existed among them in the first place.

At that moment, however, he began to worry.

Could such a disorganized group like this truly kill the two humans and the three Pixiu?

Amalia, who had not yet entered the core of the battle, suddenly tossed the Inverse Emperor Bell to Kenny Lin.

This action immediately caught everyone’s attention.

Previously unsure if there was a second Thunderstrike Orb, they were now certain.

There was indeed a second one, and the person who would use it was almost certainly Kenny Lin.

"Kill her!" The Giant Earth Bear charged at her without hesitation.

The others quickly realized that a golden opportunity was now in front of them.

Without the protection of the Inverse Emperor Bell, Amalia was as vulnerable as a peeled egg, completely exposed.

If they could kill her, Kenny Lin would lose his only reliable partner.

Without coordination, his combat strength would decrease significantly.

Slowly grinding them down, these two of them would eventually fall into their hands.

"Amalia, be careful!" The three Pixiu hadn’t expected her to throw the Inverse Emperor Bell to Kenny Lin in front of everyone.

Without the Inverse Emperor Bell’s protection, how could she withstand the attacks of so many powerful opponents?

Even though she possessed the Phoenix True Flame, its greatest advantage lay in surprise attacks.

The gap in cultivation levels was an insurmountable hurdle, one that could only be bridged with top-tier treasures.

Just as the Pixiu hesitated to rush to her aid, a killing intent locked onto them.

It came from the Body Integration stage cultivators on the opposing side.

Although they had yet to act, they wouldn’t allow the demonic beasts to disrupt this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Yes, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

To deal with two Deity Transformation stage cultivators, this group of Body Integration stage cultivators had waited patiently for such a moment.

If the demonic beasts dared intervene, the cultivators wouldn’t hesitate to act.

The three Pixiu immediately hesitated.

He was now gravely injured, and Zhar’khaen and Vryss’laar were in no better condition.

If those Body Integration stage cultivators targeted them, it might ultimately be Amalia and Kenny Lin who would have to come to their rescue.

They couldn’t afford to become an additional burden.

The five Body Integrationstage cultivators went berserk.

Menruch was blocking Kenny Lin’s attempts to assist, while the remaining four of them charged toward Amalia with terrifying expressions.

Amalia’s blade energy surged to its peak.

As she opened her eyes, she saw the rule lines that was forming the Regnum Tellus.
