Chapter 824 The Sage, the Grim Reaper! [2 Updates]

Every word is piercing to the heart.

Sara felt a gnawing sensation in her heart, and she screamed, "I don't believe it! How could you possibly be her?!"

"She's clearly dead! Dead!"

She hated the Wheel of Fortune, indeed because at every meeting of the Sages, she noticed that Deivl would always be looking at it.

You can't hide your feelings for someone.

She also likes Devil, so she pays even more attention to his every move.

When Sara learned that Devil was in love with the frail Wheel of Fate, who could barely walk, she felt humiliated.

Upon learning of the death of the Wheel of Fortune, she felt no sadness, only a sense of exhilaration.

But now?!

Sara refused to believe it, feeling a sharp, stabbing pain in her heart.

"All you like is power." Ying Zijing's fingers gradually tightened, her eyes turning icy. "He is strong, has high combat power, and enjoys unparalleled glory, so you like him."

"What you like has never been him, but rather those ephemeral famees."

Sara trembled violently, her voice hoarse: "You're talking nonsense! Nonsense!"

“So—” Ying Zijing closed her fingers again, “you are not worthy.”

Shaluo suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, her breath coming in barely a whisper.

But he still had a breath left.

Ying Zijing pondered, "It seems the magician was just an accident; there aren't many sages who can be directly reincarnated after being struck."

Sha Luo felt a chill run through her body.

The magician was killed by Ying Zijing?!

She wanted to say something, but her body was once again locked in electronic shackles, rendering her unable to move.

Ying Zijin returned to the living room.

Fu Yunshen was still sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.

Modern technology is very advanced, but he still prefers paper products.

"Why do you still look unhappy even after you've vented your anger?" Fu Yunshen looked up, smiling as he pulled her closer. "Who upset our Miss Ying?"

"Nobody." Ying Zijing yawned. "Let me figure out where Death is."

Upon hearing the title "Grim Reaper," Fu Yunshen paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Alright."

The results came out in about ten seconds.

The answer from the divination is—

die.

Fu Yunshen's eyes narrowed suddenly: "He's dead?"

“Not necessarily.” Ying Zijin shook her head. “The Grim Reaper controls death. His special ability is different from the absolute concealment he cultivates. He can change the hexagram.”

"He himself represents 'death'. The calculation shows that he is dead, but that doesn't mean he is actually dead."

Death and the Sage's Judgment, which represents "resurrection," are exactly opposites.

Ying Zijing propped her head up: "I've never been in contact with other sages before, so I don't know what kind of person Death is."

"Him?" Fu Yunshen paused for a moment, then said calmly, "He should be considered a very loyal person, one of the few brothers I had before."

"They didn't ask me why before the holy war, but just stood on my side."

But even if they were former brothers, he would never allow Death to do anything immoral.

Otherwise, they will only be enemies.

Fu Yunshen looked up: "What about the world and judgment?"

“The original four sages were very special.” Ying Zijin pondered for a moment. “At that time, I was the grandfather of the Fool and the sister of Temperance. All I knew was that they had completely perished. I knew nothing about the rest of the process.”

"Therefore, we can only calculate up to the point that the world and the judgment have not completely fallen."

“That means they’re still alive.” Fu Yunshen straightened up. “Strange, they should have been the first to return to the Sage’s Academy.”

The original four sages were also more capable than the other sages.

The ability to sense disasters also needs to be greater.

"As expected." Ying Zijin nodded slowly. "This traitor, whom I cannot see either, is among these three."

Fu Yunshen tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes: "That is indeed a tough battle."

Leaving aside the original four sages, the sage Shinigami was also very powerful.

“Hmm.” Ying Zijing turned her head. “Tonight, we’ll find out who this traitor is.”

The electronic cell was completely silent.

The gauze robe lay sprawled on the ground, its former nobility and elegance long gone.

She didn't know how much time had passed when she heard footsteps again.

She wanted to see who it was, but her eyes were blind and could not be restored through her healing abilities.

“How weak you are, Sara Victoria.” A faint voice fell from above her head. “As a leader with the ability to manipulate, you are nothing compared to the Emperor.”

Sara had difficulty speaking and could not see anything.

At that moment, I felt a chill run down my spine.

The aura of death was overwhelming, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Sha Luo struggled to speak: "What...what do you want? Who are you? Did Ying Zijing send you to kill me?!"

"Ying Zijin? She is quite formidable." The man smiled slightly. "I have to admit, even I was fooled by her. She actually managed to go to another universe to increase her strength and was even rescued by Devil."

"But that's nothing. Does she think she can stop me like that?"

Sara didn't understand at all; all she felt was fear: "Another universe? What are you talking about? What are you trying to do?!"

"Nothing much." The man bent down, his voice calm. "I'm just here to help you activate the reversed position."

"Reversed?" This was the first time Sara had encountered this term. "You think you're playing tarot... Ah!!!"

Her voice suddenly stopped, replaced by an even more piercing scream.

However, despite the presence of numerous surveillance cameras and guards surrounding the electronic cell, nothing was discovered.

No one knows how this person got in.

The man looked down at Sara, who was writhing on the ground in pain, with a leisurely air, and smiled slightly: "Can you feel this powerful force?"

"Once the card is reversed, your abilities will surpass those of the Emperor. Are you happy?"

Shaluo wanted to speak, but she felt her internal organs churning and the pain was unbearable.

She couldn't take it and fainted.

The man frowned: "What a waste."

But then his brows relaxed, and he said calmly, "However, it's always better to have one more."

The appearance of the Sage Demon and the Sage's Wheel of Fate was indeed unexpected.

However, it still didn't have much of an impact.

The predetermined future cannot be changed.

The man raised his hand and slowly lifted the gauze robe from the other side: "From today onwards, you can only serve me, and your life belongs to me."

"It cannot be disobeyed, it cannot be resisted."

"Otherwise, you will die."

Underground headquarters.

Footsteps sounded, the gait light and graceful, yet powerful and expansive.

Yao Guang was preparing medicine for Ta and Zhou Yan when she heard the sound and immediately stood up, quite surprised and delighted: "You're back?"

Ta and Zhouyan heard this too, and they both became excited: "My lord!"

"Hmm." The man casually flicked his collar. "Something came up, so I came back early."

Yao Guang glanced at the gauze in the man's hand and frowned: "Why did you bring her back? She's of no use to us at all."

"Just another one to take the hit." The man casually tossed Sara on the ground. "But she's definitely more useless than I imagined. She can't even withstand the pain during the reversed phase. She'll be the first to die."

Yao Guang gave a slight snort: "In that case, let's activate the reversed positions of the Pope and the High Priestess as well."

"As you can see, Devil's fighting power is too strong. Even though both Ta and Zhouyan have activated their reversed forms, they are no match for him."

The man smiled and said, "I know, but it's not the right time yet. We need to find the right opportunity."

Yao Guang nodded.

She knew that the activation of the reversed position also required certain conditions.

"Owner!"

The tower has awakened.

However, due to the severity of his injuries, he is still lying in bed and unable to move.

"I'm back, and the plan is about to begin." The man sat down. "Before that, you and Zhou Yan should take care of your health."

"Once you regain your mobility, I will help you improve your strength again. You don't need to worry about Devil."

"I'll kill him."

Tower breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then struggled again: "But sir, the Wheel of Fortune..."

They are not afraid of anyone.

Even if it's a demon.

Killing a sage is extremely difficult.

Even they relentlessly hunted down the reincarnations of the Sage's Power and Sage's Justice, killing them nine times before finally annihilating them.

The emperor simply spared one generation of killers, which allowed him to return successfully.

Damn it!

"The Wheel of Fate?" The man smiled faintly. "Don't worry, if the Wheel of Fate could be calculated, she wouldn't have gone to such lengths to open a cosmic portal to send Devil to increase his power. It's just a pity..."

If the being that goes to the other universe is truly a wise demon, then we should really be wary of it.

The man remained noncommittal: "You just need to do as I say."

"Yes, our master," Tower replied respectfully, "Lord Death."

The thirteenth of the Twenty-Two Sages, the Sage Death.

The Death.

Even a nap can give me a bunch of bizarre dreams; I suspect it's hinting at my next book (ˇˇ)…
