After the maids left, Dafan finally got down to business.
"Junior brother, there's something I'm hesitant to say here, though I'm not sure if I should."
Hu Le frowned upon hearing this. This guy was still putting on airs. "If I say something I shouldn't say, will you shut up?"
"Senior brother, there's no need for formalities between us. Just speak your mind."
“Good! I remember you’ve always been madly in love with Uma, and now that she’s about to marry that good-for-nothing Mara, don’t you have any thoughts about it?” Brahma asked in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Hu Le shook his head slightly. It seemed that the disciples of the Styx Ancestor were not very harmonious!
However, he still went along with Brahma's words, vaguely saying, "So what if I have ideas? Do you think I can just steal her away?"
Upon hearing this, Brahma shook his head: "To be honest, the teacher is biased. How could he assign Uma to Mara? I remember you were the Ancestor's most beloved disciple..."
As he said this, a hint of jealousy flashed deep in Brahma's eyes.
"...If you were to plead with the teacher, perhaps he would change his mind and give Umo back to you?"
Hu Le smiled slightly after hearing this. He had already discerned the provocative intent in Brahma's words. It was obvious that he wanted to use him as a pawn!
He wasn't sure if the original Indra would fall for it.
But he would not do as Brahma wished.
"Hehe... Senior brother is joking. Everyone knows that the teacher is a man of his word. Since he has already spoken, how could he change his mind? I can't ask for such a favor."
"You..." Upon hearing this, Brahma felt suspicious and uncertain, as if the Indra before him had suddenly become a stranger.
Based on his understanding of Indra, he knew that Indra was a straightforward person, or rather, a brainless brute. He only needed to provoke him a little and he would fall for it immediately.
Why are you so calm now?
However, he still didn't consider the possibility that Indra had been replaced.
After all, this is the Asura Palace, the dojo of their own master, the Styx Ancestor. Who would dare to attack his disciple?
He just assumed that this guy had suffered a lot of losses before and was now starting to become shrewd...
Of course, he hadn't given up yet. "...Junior brother, this won't do! We Asura men dare to love and hate. You clearly like that Umo, why can't you fight for her?"
Even if the teacher doesn't agree, so what? You've already tried your best, and you won't regret it later.
Hu Le simply shook his head. He was more than happy to stay here and not go out. What if he was asked to meet the Styx Ancestor and his secret was exposed?
"Sigh!" Brahma stood up, looking at Indra with a mixture of disappointment and frustration. "I never expected it! I never expected my junior brother to turn into such a cowardly coward! He has truly disappointed me..."
At that very moment.
Suddenly, a loud shout rang out from outside the hall: "Disappointed! What do you have to be disappointed about!"
Before he could finish speaking, the palace doors shattered into dust, and then Mara strode in.
Great Brahma was immediately taken aback and stammered, "Big...Senior Brother, you...how did you get here!"
Upon hearing this, Bo Xun sneered: "Hmph! If I hadn't come, how would I have known that my good junior brother would actually ruin my plans behind my back!"
"Greetings, Senior Brother!" Hu Le said, standing up.
Upon hearing Hu Le's greeting, Bo Xun's anger subsided slightly, and he nodded to Hu Le, "Junior brother, you did well just now!"
Clearly, he had been listening outside the hall for quite some time, which was why he was being so accommodating to Hu Le...
As for why he came here, it was a coincidence.
Not long ago, the Styx Ancestor wandered in the Blood Sea for a long time but failed to catch up with Hu Le's whereabouts.
Reluctantly, he returned to the Shura Palace and began to silently deduce the secrets of heaven, searching for Hu Le's whereabouts.
He wasn't particularly skilled in divination, and with Hu Le's immense fortune and merit protecting him, it wasn't easy for him to deduce Hu Le's whereabouts.
Just as the Styx Ancestor broke through the cover of human destiny, he encountered the obstruction of the Heavenly Court's destiny.
After breaking through the Heavenly Court's fortune, they encountered the obstruction of Pangu's Great Fortune.
In the darkness, a hazy, indistinct Chaos Bell presses down above the River of Destiny, suppressing the fate of the Taiyi lineage. This includes not only the fate of the couple themselves, but also that of their eldest disciple, Hu Le.
If the Styx Ancestor were willing to use all his power to unleash the two innate swords, Yuan Tu and A Bi, he might be able to break through the concealment of the Chaos Bell.
After all, the Chaos Bell was not a physical object, but merely a phantom of a creation treasure.
However, if he were to actually do that, it would immediately alert Taiyi, the master of the Chaos Bell.
If Taiyi were to charge into the Blood Sea with the Chaos Bell to seek justice for his disciple, even the Blood Sea Ancestor would have a headache...
Of course, even if he couldn't accurately pinpoint Hu Le's location, he could still guess that Hu Le couldn't have escaped very far in such a short time.
At the very least, they should still be inside the sea of blood, or even inside the Asura Palace.
The reason he wasn't discovered was simply because he hid in a good spot, or he used some kind of supernatural magic to conceal his whereabouts...
With that in mind, he decided to conduct a preliminary investigation of the Asura Palace, even if it required a large-scale operation, because Hu Le had embarrassed him...
So he returned the Blood God Child's incarnation to Bo Xun and used his powers to erase his memories of that period.
They then obtained a lotus seed from the Karmic Fire Red Lotus for him and used the Blood Sea Great Technique to recreate a physical body for him.
As for the magical power that Mara lost due to the shattering of his physical body, he recovered it after he returned and used the Blood God Child to devour 100,000 Asuras.
The Styx Ancestor then ordered Mara to oversee the search of the Asura Palace in order to find Hu Le's whereabouts.
After receiving the order, Mara dared not delay and informed several of his fellow disciples. However, when he went to Brahma's place, he heard that the other party had gone to find Indra.
He immediately rushed to the celestial palace where Indra was located...
Upon arriving outside the palace, they did not wait for the maids to report to them.
He suddenly froze the person, concealed his presence, and quietly broke into the palace.
His reason for doing this was not because he was prescient, but because he had long held prejudices against Brahma and Indra.
He had already learned an infuriating piece of news by bribing one of the attendants of the Styx Ancestor.
Not long ago, after learning that Styx Ancestor had assigned Umo to them, both of them went to Styx Ancestor to beg him to change his mind and give Umo to them instead, but in the end, he refused...
Now that the two men who once coveted his fiancée are together, he has some suspicions.
Therefore, he quietly came to the door and silently subdued the Asura maidservant guarding outside.
He overheard their conversation from a short distance away...
