Chapter 2092: Fun

Yun Che entered the hall and took the seat of honor, while Meng Jianze lowered his attitude extremely low, almost to the point of groveling, and all his words were filled with regret for what happened in the past.

Even in front of Meng Jianxi, he had never been so humble.

Yun Che said with a smile, “As Meng Jianyuan, I should still call you brother. It was just a slight argument due to different positions that day. You really don’t need to be like this.”

Meng Jianze said quickly: "Son of the Yuan God is so magnanimous, Jianze is even more ashamed. From now on, if Son of the Yuan God gives an order, Jianze will not refuse even if it means death."

“These words can be taken lightly or seriously, but please do not speak them lightly.” Yun Che’s expression seemed to have become a little more serious: “If I take it seriously, then wouldn’t it seriously damage the friendship between you and the Son of God Jianxi that has lasted for many years?”

Meng Jianze shook his head slowly: "As a descendant of the Meng family, Jianze will only hand over his body and soul to the Kingdom of Dreamweaver without any loss. Therefore, the one Jianze is loyal to in this life is never a certain person, but the only Son of God who controls the future of Dreamweaver!"

His words were quite subtle, because the four words "the only Son of God" could be interpreted in many different ways.

After saying that, he took two steps forward and stretched out his hands. He held a two-foot square jade box in his hands. It was surrounded by mysterious light and intertwined with at least three seals.

I dreamed that Ze placed the jade box on the tea table, then unsealed the three seals one by one and opened the right side of the jade box. Suddenly, a ray of brilliant light shone out from the box.

Meng Jianze stretched out his hand and carefully took out a small soft armor surrounded by silver light from the jade box.

“Son of the Abyss,” he lifted the soft armor with both hands and held it in front of Yun Che’s eyes: “This armor is called the Soul-Destroying Armor. It was given to me by my Father God when I broke through the God-Destroying Realm. If you put it on your chest, even a full-strength attack from a mid-stage demigod can be instantly neutralized.”

"Although the son of the Yuan God is extremely gifted and possesses a perfect godhood, he is still young and his cultivation is weak. He needs this armor much more than I do... Indeed, the safety of the son of the Yuan God is now the top priority of the Dreamweaver Kingdom. The Father God will definitely protect him well, but with this armor, there will be an extra layer of protection, which can also make the Father God and Jianze feel more at ease."

Yun Che’s gaze fell on the silver armor, but the corner of his eye was diagonally directed towards the jade box… If anyone else were here, they would definitely not ignore the strange light overflowing from the jade box.

Yun Che reached out his hand and took the soft armor without any hesitation: "Okay, since you are so kind, I will not refuse it. Our past grudges are now settled. What the future holds depends on where you and I go."

Meng Jianze was overjoyed and said, "With the words of the son of Yuan Shen, I can finally feel at ease when I see Jianze..."

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

Panic shouts came from outside the hall, quickly spreading from far away to near.

Meng Jianze turned around and shouted angrily: "How dare you! How dare you shout like that when the Son of the Yuan God is here!"

The person who was shouting almost crawled in: "Your Highness, it's bad, the old illness of the Madam suddenly relapsed, and now she has... has..."

"What!?"

Meng Jianze's face suddenly changed, and his hair almost all stood up in an instant, and he subconsciously rushed out. When he stepped out of the palace gate, he suddenly remembered Yun Che's existence, and hurriedly turned back, his face full of panic: "Yuan Shenzi, this is related to Madam's life, Jianze will excuse himself for the time being, Yuan Shenzi, you can do as you please here, wait until Madam is well, Jianze will come to apologize to Yuan Shenzi again."

After saying this, he left in a hurry and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Even the maid who had informed them had left, leaving Yun Che alone in the entire hall.

Yun Che stood up and came to the jade box that Meng Jianze had forgotten to take back in his haste. With a flick of his finger, he opened it completely.

Suddenly, a moon-like light filled every corner of the hall. The incomparably strong and pure spiritual energy was enough to stir the profound veins of any profound practitioner.

Yun Che reached out and took the divine jade that was gleaming with the light of the moonlight in his hand… It was also a type of Abyss Crystal, an extremely rare mutated Abyss Crystal. The power contained in it was so high that it was definitely not comparable to ordinary Abyss Crystals.

“Abyssal crystals of this level are considered divine objects even in the Divine Kingdom.” Yun Che whispered, “With Meng Jianze’s level, he should not be worthy of owning one.”

After that, Li Suo's voice rang out: "I dreamt that Ze was tempting you to take it away."

Yun Che raised the corners of his lips slightly: “Look, even you can see it easily.”

"..." Li Suo was silent for a long time, and then said: "It is indeed an extremely despicable method."

“No, no,” Yun Che shook his head immediately: “It may seem inferior, but in fact, there is a lot to it.”

"?" Li Suo was already accustomed to his rebuttal.

Yun Che explained slowly, “The cleverness of this game lies in Meng Jianze’s attitude. Today, he was so humble in front of me that he wanted to kneel down and bow his head. This gave me an illusion that… he now respects and relies on me to the extreme. Whatever I want or request, he will be eager to give it to me.”

“Thus…” Yun Che raised the Heavenly Revelation Divine Jade to his eyes: “When you first see this kind of rare treasure, the shock, excitement, and greed that are aroused will greatly erode your reason and judgment. Add to that the illusion that you can take it at will… It’s very easy to take it away directly.”

"So..." Li Suo said, "He wants to frame you?"

“Not accurate.” Yun Che said, “They probably want to use this to leave a stain on me. And once a stain is left on me, it can never be washed away.”

"I think this is just the first attempt by the Mengjianxi faction. Similar methods will appear in succession in the future. They can't force me, so using this method is a good choice in general. It can kill me without bloodshed and without leaving any handle."

He seemed to be approving, but the curve of his lips was full of mockery. He lowered his arm, seemingly about to put the Apocalypse Jade back into the jade box, but the moment it sank into the jade box, he directly put it into the Sky Poison Pearl.

Bang!

The jade box closed tightly.

"Why do you want to take it away?" Li Su asked puzzledly.

Yun Che turned around and walked out with big strides: “It makes no sense not to accept something that is delivered to my door!”

"If Meng Jianxi behaves honestly, I won't even bother to look at him. Since he dares to take action, I don't mind letting him remember how to write the word 'regret'!"

"After all, even if you are the Mist King who is about to overthrow the world, you should have some fun and relax once in a while."

Li Suo: “…”

Not long after Yun Che left, Meng Jianze, who had already gone far away, quickly came back. He ran straight to the jade box and opened it quickly.

Suddenly, he stood there in a daze, with a hint of unexpected surprise clearly passing across his face, and then turning into deep ecstasy.

He stretched out his hand suddenly, and a hidden black shadow stone was sucked into his hand. He quickly explored it with his spiritual sense, and the joy on his face suddenly became more intense.

A sound transmission array spread out in front of him, and he could not help but said excitedly: "Goddess, I dreamed that Yuan secretly took away the Apocalypse Divine Jade!"

"..." There was a long silence, as if they couldn't believe it for a moment. Meng Xuanjue's voice came slowly: "Are you sure? Have you carved it with the Xuanying Stone?"

Meng Jianze said quickly: "The Xuanying Stone is in my hands. The whole process of taking it away is engraved completely."

Meng Xuanjue sneered, "I thought that the possibility that he would take it directly was less than 20%. It seems that I still overestimated him! After all, he is an inferior person who has been wandering outside for a hundred years. Now that he is protected by Hua Qingying and favored by the God, how could he not lose his mind and forget himself?"

Meng Jianze Shen agreed: "That's right! Even if he has perfect godhood, so what! Most of the Dream Palace is on the side of His Majesty the Son of God. We only need to use a little trick to push him into the deep mud step by step. It won't take long before he no longer has the qualifications to compete with His Majesty the Son of God."

"Queen of God, should I report this to Father God now?"

“No.” Meng Xuanjue spoke in a low voice. Even through the sound transmission array, one could still see the cold and terrifying look in her eyes when she spoke: “If you tell the God first, he will definitely suppress it. Inform the nine great dream palaces of this first, and no one should be left out! At the same time, spread this matter, the wider the better.”

"Meng Jianyuan has just become famous, but he is mean and greedy by nature. He is so bold that he secretly stole the divine jade of revelation bestowed by the God of Dream Weaving... This news is enough to make the entire Dream Weaving Kingdom excited."

Yun Che returned to the Son of God Palace and headed straight to the bedroom, and said, “I’ve been practicing for so many days, and I feel a little sleepy. Zhiyuan, you wait outside. Unless it’s a very serious matter, no one is allowed to come in.”

Unfortunately, Yun Che's rest did not last too long. In less than an hour, a "huge event" broke out.

"Meng Jianyuan, get out here!"

A loud roar filled with rage resounded throughout the Temple of the Son of God. Since the ceremony of establishing the temple, no one had ever dared to act so presumptuous in front of the Temple of the Son of God.

Meng Jianze's eyes were as sharp as swords, and his face was full of anger, which was completely different from the servile person he had been in front of Yun Che before. Although he was still under house arrest, he left the mansion and even broke into the Son of God Palace.

With a flash of a figure, Lu Laisheng was already standing in front of Meng Jianze. Just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed... because the formation of the people who came with Meng Jianze could only be described as terrifying.

Mengkongdu, Mengchaoyang, Mengjinghai...the masters of the nine dream palaces are all here!

"I respectfully welcome all the dream masters." Lu Laisheng quickly bowed, his scalp tingling for a moment, and at the same time secretly transmitted a message: "Quick! Go and report to the young master."

The second dreamer, Meng Chaoyang, glanced around and said meaningfully, "It's really rare that everyone is here. It seems that someone is deliberately trying to make a big deal out of this."

"Hmph!" Meng Xuanji said coldly: "This divine jade of revelation is the only one in Zhimeng. It is a big deal. But what is even bigger is that it is related to the character of my dream-like son of God. How can it be underestimated!"

The fifth dream master, Meng Chaofeng, hinted: "From what I have seen of the character of the Abyss God Son, he would never do such a thing. I'm afraid there is something sinister going on here."

"Then Lord Chao Feng Meng will probably be disappointed." Meng Jinghai said coldly.

At this moment, everyone turned their eyes and saw Yun Che walking out slowly. His steps were unsteady and his eyes were sleepy. When he approached, he yawned long and clearly looked like he had just woken up.

As if he had just seen the people standing at the palace gate, the abyss of being disturbed in his sweet dream said unhappily: "So it's the nine dream masters, oh? Meng Jianze, aren't you under house arrest? How come you still have the time to come here and yell at me?"

“Meng Jianyuan!” Meng Jianze’s eyes flashed with anger: “I have put aside my dignity and almost put my face under your feet to apologize to you! But you harbored such evil intentions and waited for an opportunity to steal the Jade of Revelation! That is the sacred object bestowed by the Father God to the Son of God Jianxi!”

“Oh? The Jade of Apocalypse?” Yun Che showed a puzzled expression, and then suddenly realized: “Could it be that shining alien crystal? This name is really not appropriate at all.”

“Stop talking nonsense and hand it over!” Meng Jianze seemed to have given up everything and said viciously: “Otherwise, even if you are the Son of the Abyss in everyone’s mouths, I will never give up!”

Yun Che touched his chin with his hand and squinted at him: "Steal? Meng Jianze, you'd better understand what you are talking about."

"What are you all doing here!?"

The powerful voice made everyone look stern, and then they all bowed down involuntarily: "Welcome to the God."

The figure of Meng Kongchan quickly approached from afar. Behind him were the chief hall master Meng Zangji and Meng Jianxi, whose expression was difficult to discern.

The nine dream masters were all here. Meng Kongchan's face darkened slightly. He glanced at everyone one by one and said in a low voice: "Jian Ze, who gave you the courage to leave the house without permission!"

Meng Jianze knelt down on the ground with a thump, and said in a painful voice: "How dare I disobey the order of Father God. But... I lost the divine jade of revelation that Father God bestowed on His Majesty the Son of God. This is such a serious matter. Even if I am punished several times, I dare not neglect it in the slightest."

He turned his head abruptly, pointed his finger at Yun Che, and said in a heavy voice, “It was the Abyss God Son! I was severely reprimanded by the Father God that day, and I have always felt guilty. I have invited the Abyss God Son to my mansion every day to ask for an apology in person. Today, the Abyss God Son finally showed his favor, and I knelt down to apologize, and even gave the Destroying Spiritual Cloth to the Abyss God Son.”

"But Suqin's old illness suddenly recurred, and I had to rush over to suppress it with my profound strength. However, the Son of the Abyss took advantage of this opportunity and stole the Apocalypse Jade that His Majesty the Son of the God had placed with me."

Meng Jianxi's hands were sometimes clenched and sometimes unclenched, and the corners of his eyes were twitching restlessly.

Meng Chaoyang interrupted and said, "This is strange. Why is Jianxi's Apocalypse Jade in your hands?"

Meng Jianze immediately said, "Your Majesty the Son of God wants to use the Jade of Revelation only after I break through the fifth level of the God-Destroying Realm. As my soul progress has been blocked recently, Your Majesty the Son of God has temporarily placed the Jade of Revelation in my hands, so that its divine light can nourish my soul and help me break through."

"This is a great favor from His Majesty the Son of God, and a great trust in me, but I..."

He said sadly, "This matter is of great importance. Jianzawa made such a big fuss in a hurry that even Father God and the dream masters were alarmed... Jianzawa's crime is truly unforgivable."

"..." Meng Jianxi stared at Meng Jianze deeply, but was unable to deny it.

"Yuan'er." Meng Kongchan spoke, his face showing no emotion: "Did you take the divine jade of Tianqi as Jianze said?"

“Of course not.” The sleepiness in Yun Che’s eyes had not yet dissipated, but they were still clear: “If I want something, I will naturally ask the Divine Lord.”

"Yeah." Meng Kongchan nodded slightly.

"Of course you can't admit it!" Meng Zangji took a step forward, his face full of anger: "Jian Ze, you are so sure that you are pointing directly at Meng Jianyuan, but do you have any solid evidence?"

"Of course!"

Meng Jianze stretched out his hand, and in his palm was the Xuanying Stone that he had prepared long ago. Then he exhaled a little Xuan Qi, and the image engraved on it suddenly appeared:

In the video, Yun Che stood in front of the jade box, with his back to the Mysterious Shadow Stone. Although he was facing away, one could still clearly see him take out the shining Apocalypse Jade from the jade box, and after looking at it, he put it down... However, in the process of putting it down, the divine light suddenly extinguished, and as Yun Che turned and left, the jade box was completely closed.

The projection went out, the atmosphere suddenly became silent, and everyone had different expressions.

Meng Zangji was furious and roared, "Meng Jianyuan, I never thought that you would dare to do such an ugly thing! Now that things have come to this, what else do you have to say!"
