Ye Bai waved his hand. "No need. Just watch the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm perform. Humans still need you."

"And don’t start doing anything sentimental."

"You should know what I’m capable of."

The Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm approached Celestial Secret Star and Celestial Minor Star.

The two, controlled by the Blood-Eyed Deceit, cast Puppetry.

Over a hundred Puppets, under their control, launched an all-out assault on the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm.

Every single one of these Puppets was tattered and ragged, clearly having suffered a lot of torment.

Facing the Puppet’s attacks, the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm didn’t move much at all. It merely opened its mouth slightly, and countless threads sprayed out from its mouth.

These threads were like steel wires, directly piercing through the Puppets’ cores.

In just a few moments, the Puppets of Celestial Secret Star and Celestial Minor Star were Devoured by the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm.

"Trash, truly trash. You can’t even kill a Deceit that hasn’t even reached Tier Eight."

"Hmph, Shadow Dancer Deceit King, aren’t you going to move yet?"

Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit looked at the Shadow Dancer Deceit King with an ugly expression.

This guy was speechless too. Weren’t you the one who just said you’d handle everything yourself?

Why the sudden change now? Can you at least have some principles?

"This has nothing to do with me. If you’ve got the ability, go yourself."

"Anyway, there are plenty of Blood-Eyed Deceits."

The Shadow Dancer Deceit King stood up and spoke coldly to Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit.

"Fine. If you don’t participate in the operation, that means you forfeit your qualification to compete for the humans from outside the realm."

"Hmph, I’ll report everything about you to the Deceit Emperor."

Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit was now waving a chicken feather like an imperial decree.

"Alright then, in that case I’m withdrawing too."

Blood Wolf Deceit suddenly spoke up.

"My Blood Wolf Deceit clan doesn’t have many members to begin with, and those outsiders feel pretty strong."

"Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit, your clan’s reproduction ability is decent. I’ll stop competing with you."

Right after, Snake Woman Deceit and the Deceitful Bride also announced one after another that they didn’t want to participate.

This left Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit stuck riding a tiger.

Honestly, with just him alone, he might not be able to defeat the humans of the Underground City.

Was this plan going to end in vain?

At this moment, Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit heard the voice of the Deceit Emperor and grinned.

Before long, the shadows on the ground writhed, and the Shadow Dancer Deceit King, who had been about to leave, appeared once more.

He clearly looked helpless; obviously the Shadow Dancer Deceit King had received a message from the Deceit Emperor, forcing him to return.

Otherwise, the Deceit Emperor could send a new Deceit King to replace him at any time.

The Deceit Realm was so vast; the number of Deceit Kings was small, but not that small.

"Yo, everyone’s back. Then let’s start the second round of discussion. How much manpower and resources are we going to send to attack the human survivor camp?"

Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit smiled brightly, while all the Deceit Kings wore ashen faces.

After Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit’s test just now, it was clear the humans were strong and definitely troublesome.

The other Deceit Kings didn’t want to burn so much manpower and resources only to end up with nothing.

Watching more and more Deceits rush in, Ye Bai immediately felt that something was off.

"Ivy, didn’t the Deceits just quiet down for a bit earlier?"

"Why are there suddenly so many more again?"

The key thing was that the Netherworld Hell Wolf had already led its pack to eat their fill; now they couldn’t even stomach more Deceits.

Only that Deceit-transformed Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm had inherited the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly’s gluttony and was constantly Devouring Deceits.

"Looks like this Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm will evolve soon, but once the Butterfly Emperor appears, the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly will definitely break through Tier Nine."

By then, breaking through Saint Tier (Tier Ten) shouldn’t be a problem either.

The Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly watched the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm eating with such relish that it stuck out its tongue and licked one of the Blood-Eyed Deceits.

A rusty taste spread across its tongue.

Peh, peh, peh—what is this taste, why is it so disgusting?

I’m unclean now.

The Deceit that got licked by the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly also wore an "I’m unclean" expression; the two of them practically loathed the sight of each other.

At this moment, a smoking hole suddenly appeared in the Deceit’s brow; it had just had its head blown off by the Sunflower Fairy’s Skill.

"Alright, Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly, stop fooling around and hurry up and wipe out these Deceits."

Ye Bai was utterly speechless at the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly.

Next, the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly suddenly spat out streams of crystal-clear Insect Silk.

The Insect Silk pierced straight through the Deceits’ Heart Cores, and those Heart Cores, like Blood Red Crystal Stones, vanished in an instant.

"Are we even going to be able to hold this place?"

Watching Deceits surge in like a tide, quite a few people already felt a trace of despair.

"Humans."

"You feel the despair now, don’t you?"

Many factions that had been penned in by humans were deeply terrified of the Deceits’ attacks.

They had even erected a massive Protective Shield to keep the Deceits out.

But the corners of the Deceit Kings’ mouths all curled into a mocking smile.

These humans would have been better off not turning on the Protective Shield. Once they turned it on, it meant their lives were approaching the end.

Because the Protective Shield was the Deceit Kings’ ghostly domain; once it was activated, humans would fall into self-inflicted chaos.

At this moment, the Bright White Tower was engulfed in a sea of Fire.

The Tower Master stared at the area burning in raging flames, a thin trace of despair in his eyes.

"Can humans really not defeat Deceits?"

"Please, tell me the answer."

"Deceit King, I’ve done so much for you, why are you still unwilling to let me go?"

"I’m willing to become your slave, your slave. Please spare my life."

The Tower Master spoke with extreme humility.

"Spare you?"

"You’re just one of my toys. Who allowed you to address me like that?"

"A Tier Eight Deceit Tamer, your strength depends entirely on us Deceits. What do you have to bargain with me?"

The voice of Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit appeared in the Tower Master’s mind.

"Self-Destruct. Your Soul will become a part of me." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Oh, right—wipe out those humans for me. I’ll grant you the blessing of eternal life."

With that one sentence from Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit, the Tower Master ended himself.

His body rapidly swelled, and with a booming explosion, all the buildings within several hundred meters were blown away by the blast shockwave.

The entire Bright White Tower became a bottomless giant crater, looking like a gaping scar.

"The Bright White Tower is finished. The White Tower has collapsed, and even the Tower Master is gone."

Many people completely lost their minds.

They ran around frantically, spreading the news.

Humans seemed to have discovered the hidden truth, because the Deceits had begun invading the entire city in broad daylight.

"Come on, killing a Deceit earns your life back!"

Those who said this line usually ended up Parasitized by Deceits, unable to live and unable to die.

"Visitor from the Otherworld, do you really not care about the life and death of the humans in this world?"

The figure of Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit appeared in the Underground City.

"I don’t care. Why should I care? Could you analyze that for me?"

Ye Bai said with a squinting smile.

"Humans are your own kind. You’re actually going to just watch them die?"

"Then I’ll destroy the entire Underground City. Won’t all the humans here die?"

"Hand him over, and I promise I can spare you people."

"After all, you’re the last humans!"

"All the other humans we penned up have been killed by us!"

Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit twisted its face into something terrifying, directly scaring many people into collapsing to their knees, clutching their heads and bursting into tears.

"I don’t want to die, I really don’t want to die!"

Many cried in grief.

"It’s fine. In the end, the residents of the Deceit Realm will be us Deceits. You’ve got replacements."

"Humans, you’re going to die anyway. How about becoming my blood food?"

Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit said, face ferocious.

"No way. You’re too ugly, I really can’t bring myself to eat you."

"Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm, take it out."

Ye Bai gave the order directly.

"Hahaha, what can this Exotic Beast that hasn’t even reached Tier Eight do?"

"You think it can contend with me?"

"That’s absolutely impossible!"

"I am the mighty Ten Thousand Eyes Deceit, a top-tier existence among Tier Eight Deceit Kings."

"And you are nothing more than an Exotic Beast that hasn’t even reached Tier Eight yet."
