Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 392 - 52: Order and the Court_2

```

The guard was yet another one knocked unconscious by Tang Xian.

In the control of his strength, Tang Xian was certain he had reached a state of consummate skill.

Compared to humans, the Snake Form granted him explosive power, while his achievements as the Paragon and Adversary of Thousands gifted him with unlimited defense and formidable offensive capabilities.

After the saintly domain’s incident was thoroughly resolved, perhaps it was time to learn some combat techniques from Song Que.

As Tang Xian made such plans, nearly a hundred guards were unknowingly reduced to half, and the remaining ones surrendered after a certain sudden accident.

Zhuo He continued to flee towards the entrance to the seventh layer; its speed was not slow, but neither Qing JiuYu nor Tang Feiji, even in their human forms, were quicker.

In this situation, Zhuo He finally revealed its true body, its sapphire-like wings flapping, rapidly increasing its speed.

It indeed intended to unlock the seventh layer’s fortress.

The upper echelons of the Myriad Beasts Tribunal did have quite a few Soul Crystal reserves. It crammed all those Soul Crystals into a prop bag.

But before it could escape to the level passage, it was impaled through its wings by an ice spike from Tang Feiji.

Zhuo He could no longer move.

Qing JiuYu had to admit, although this foolish dragon was arrogant and impolite, it was indeed powerful.

As an Orange Rank existence among the divine beasts, it was an insurmountable entity for the vast majority of creatures.

A fox and a dragon leapt lightly, arriving beside Zhuo He.

"Despicable lost fox, let me tell you a secret," Tang Feiji said.

Qing JiuYu disdainfully said,

"Little Feiji, if you want to tell big sister that Tang Xian doesn’t eat creatures that can transform into humans, big sister already knows."

Tang Feiji was stunned, like a suddenly surprised Husky.

After all, he had always believed it was a major discovery that only he knew about.

Qing JiuYu shook her head, thinking forget it, she wouldn’t argue with a being who, despite living for hundreds of years, had the mind of a child.

"What a pity! The bird meat must have tasted good," Tang Feiji’s thoughts quickly returned to food.

At this moment, Tang Xian also arrived unhurriedly.

He didn’t hear what Tang Feiji said, but seeing Tang Feiji’s expression, Tang Xian said,

"Although I don’t eat it, I can help with the cooking, if you’d like. Monkey brains, crane meat, whatever you want, as a reward for your exceptional performance today."

Tang Feiji was overjoyed.

Naturally, Tang Xian said this to intimidate Zhuo He.

Zhuo He was like a prisoner nailed to the execution rack, painfully sizing up the three of them.

Tang Xian looked at Qing JiuYu, saying,

"See, myriad beasts can get along quite well with humans."

Qing JiuYu looked at Tang Xian strangely. This man’s thought process was really odd; was that really the first thing he thought of?

Tang Xian said,

"In the Human World, people respect a myriad beast, even letting a myriad beast lead. Although this myriad beast has its secrets, it has indeed proven one thing: myriad beasts that can transform into humans can coexist peacefully with humans."

"Of course, we must eliminate any adversarial stance. The beast pack that Yu will lead in the future, the humans who Song Que will lead, might truly coexist peacefully in Baichuan City."

"You’re thinking too far ahead."

"I always have to find something to do."

Tang Xian looked towards Zhuo He.

[Who the hell are you!]

"Looks like among the turtle, crane, and flood dragon, the turtle must have the highest IQ. I’ve got a question for you, don’t be nervous, it doesn’t concern you. Can the Endless Turtle transform into a human?"

Zhuo He looked at Tang Xian strangely. Your journey continues with novelbuddy

Wondering what the young man was scheming.

Seeing that Zhuo He did not respond, Tang Xian thought perhaps the wing being penetrated by the ice spike had also jammed his thought process.

"Tang Feiji, could you please do me a favor and help the Crystal Crane break its wings off?"

It was time for Tang Xian’s devilish interrogation again, and Tang Feiji was only too happy to be ordered about at this time.

The thrill of tearing off chicken wings surged through him as Tang Feiji, with his immense strength, tore off the Crystal Crane’s sapphire-like wings cleanly.

The painful cry of the crane echoed across the sixth layer.

Its body also collapsed to the ground, landing right in front of Tang Xian.

Purple light flashed in Tang Xian’s eyes, and his whole body was suddenly enveloped in a layer of faint purple mist.

Then this mist surged at great speed into Zhuo He’s eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

Zhuo He tried to resist, to dodge away from the poison mist-like substance, but its body was firmly pinned down by Tang Feiji’s foot.

[This... this is Lord Epidemic’s...]

"Yes, the epidemic’s poison mist. I don’t know its effects since the prompt in my sea of consciousness says it triggers unknown negative effects."

Fear was written all over Zhuo He’s pupils.

```

Tang Xian’s expression remained calm, but he was very pleased with the effect inside.

The source of the epidemic could spew a large amount of toxic fog and venom.

After its death, Tang Xian obtained one of its abilities, Toxic Fog.

But the effect was far less lethal than that of the epidemic source.

If the epidemic’s poison was a violent poison, Tang Xian’s was a slow poison.

However, Tang Xian was very satisfied with the combination of this ability and his previous ones.

From s004, Tang Xian had gained the ability to control trajectories.

From the great Tengu, Tang Xian had acquired the ability of Eclipse.

Upon initiating Eclipse, in absolute darkness, he would use precise throwing to drive the toxic fog into his opponent’s body in a bizarre trajectory.

The combination of these three abilities into a lethal assassination skill gave Tang Xian a solid confidence in the battles he would face in the future.

"It’s okay if you have no wings, you can still be a flightless bird. But now you better work hard to keep your legs. The question you need to answer, can the Endless Turtle transform into a human?"

[I don’t know! I really don’t know!]

"Troublesome, I’m very envious of this wandering sorcerer who can condemn people at will."

"Considering the poison has entered your body, I don’t know what effect it will trigger, but it’s certainly going to be painful.

I suggest you disclose some valuable information right away, such as how many levels the Soul Crystal in your hand can unlock in the fortress. That way, I might give you an antidote."

Zhuo He looked at Tang Xian as if he were looking at a devil.

[The... the eighth layer...]

Tang Xian nodded, his expression one of regret, showing a high level of candor, unlikely to be false.

"Next question, what exactly is the relationship between the Myriad Beasts Court and the Orderers? The very top of the Pyramid, do you know what’s there?"

Zhuo He’s eyes widened at the question, as he had the most unique insight on this.

[If I tell you... can you spare me?]

"Of course, I keep my word. As long as you provide sufficiently valuable information, I will spare you."

Qing JiuYu and Tang Feiji wore expressions that screamed ’I don’t believe you’.

Zhuo He had no room to negotiate, so it said:

[The Court and the Orderers used to be adversaries. But after the Orderers invaded the Myriad Beasts Realm, they signed an agreement with the Court...]

"Continue."

[The content of the agreement is only known to the Judge, but after the agreement, the Orderers annihilated the Eden forces and also left this world. The Court did not play any significant role in this, and afterward, we began to control the creatures that once followed the Eden forces.]

Tang Xian was startled.

Eden’s forces did not represent justice in his subconscious.

But undoubtedly, this faction had saved the Myriad Beasts Realm.

Now it seemed, Eden was also a targeted party.

Tang Xian recalled the letter.

Written by Jing Jian, the last human on the surface.

This world had a consciousness of its own that was protecting humanity.

But humanity had strayed from this world and chose to live inside the Pyramid.

The previous information was just as crucial.

Life had returned to the bronze-like terracotta warriors.

Beasts with three heads.

He quickly deduced a possibility.

"Humanity is a resource contended for by two powers. To seize humanity, the Orderers and Myriad Beasts Court waged war in the Human World.

But the rise of Eden’s forces almost caused the Myriad Beasts Court to lose their foothold.

Perhaps it was this that the Orderers realized, leading the warring parties to strike a deal, with the Orderers wiping out Eden’s forces.

The Myriad Beasts Court, in turn, withdrew from the division of the Human World. To be precise, it was the division over humanity.

Therefore, thereafter, the Court’s task was to become the king’s court of the beasts, consolidating its influence in the mining area.

As for the Orderers... having suffered heavy losses from defeating Eden’s forces, but they secured all of humanity."

As Tang Xian was thinking these thoughts, though lacking corroborating evidence, he remembered the scenes he saw when looking at the Pyramid from aboveground.

It was like looking at gigantic cocoons.

Humans continuously delivered the power needed by these cocoons.

Perhaps one day, the terrifying beings inside these cocoons would break out again.

Tang Xian glanced at Tang Feiji and suddenly thought of the experiment that Li Xiaoyu had conducted at her level; perhaps he could also try it out.

"What exactly is at the very top of the Pyramid?" Tang Xian asked the final question.
