Chapter 2013 - 2014: Lend Them Ten Guts
When Olivia uttered the word "Shadow," her face became incomparably solemn, and even faintly, Ye Xunhuan saw a trace of dread in Olivia's eyes!
"Shadow?" Ye Xunhuan frowned!
He had been in the underground world for quite some time, but he had never heard of this name.
The word "Shadow" was very unfamiliar to Ye Xunhuan!
"Yes!"
"Is it a man or a woman?"
"A man!"
"Then who is he?"
Olivia did not speak immediately but pondered for a moment before slowly speaking: "In the underground world, there are ten overlords, but apart from me, the ten overlords are like ancient emperors, taking turns. This year's turn is at your house, next year it might be at your house!"
"I know that."
Although there are ten overlords in the underground world, controlling the order of the underground world, Ye Xunhuan also knew that the change of overlords in the underground world was quite normal.
As long as you have enough strength, you can challenge the overlords. If you can kill them, you can replace them.
But even if you kill the overlord, someone will definitely come for you. As long as you can withstand everyone, you can secure the position of overlord.
That's how it was with Black Night initially, but unfortunately, Black Night didn't last long as an overlord before being taken down by Ye Xunhuan.
"But what you don't know is that you don't necessarily have to kill the opponent to become an overlord in the underground world!" Olivia said heavily: "As long as you can defeat them, make them admit defeat verbally, and announce it to the world, that's enough!"
A bold guess instantly flashed through Ye Xunhuan's mind: "You mean..."
"That's right, this Shadow was once an overlord of the underground world!" Olivia said heavily: "The one who defeated them was King Kong!"
"What?"
"King Kong defeated Shadow, and Shadow admitted defeat verbally, announcing it to the entire underground world. Many people went to challenge King Kong afterward, but they all returned defeated!" Olivia explained seriously: "It was from that moment that King Kong replaced Shadow!"
"And Shadow then disappeared without a trace. No one knew where he went. Fifteen years have passed, and who would have thought he would emerge again!"
"Are you sure that person is Shadow?"
"Shadow's speed is unmatched!" Olivia said solemnly: "I once doubted that with Shadow's speed, it was impossible for King Kong to defeat him. It now seems there might be something going on that we're unaware of!"
"If it wasn't Shadow, I can't imagine who else could have rescued someone from right under your nose, and even made it impossible for you to distinguish between male and female!"
Ye Xunhuan remained silent and slowly pulled out a cigarette, lighting it and taking a gentle puff.
After taking two puffs, Ye Xunhuan exhaled a thick cloud of smoke from his mouth and slowly spoke: "Olivia, is this Shadow hard to deal with?"
"Very hard to deal with!" Olivia nodded: "His speed is so fast that even I can't catch up. He doesn't want to die, making it hard to kill him!"
"Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless you can truly achieve shrinking the earth to a tiny distance!" Olivia exhaled heavily: "Only then can you kill him. Otherwise, to kill him, everything must be arranged properly. At the very least, you and I must work together, with one to distract his attention and the other waiting in the shadows for a chance to strike!"
Ye Xunhuan pondered briefly, then asked: "Can you help me find Shadow?"
"Do you think that's possible?" Olivia chuckled bitterly: "A man fast as the wind, swift as lightning, how to find him? Even if you find him, by the time you get there, he's probably long gone!"
For a moment, Ye Xunhuan didn't know what to say.
To truly achieve shrinking the earth, one must reach the void realm, and while he's just a step away from that realm!
But that step away is like a vast gulf, incredibly hard to cross.
"You better be careful, recently the people of the underground world have been very active for some unknown reason, and some old folks are surfacing!" Olivia cautioned.
In the underground world, although the ten overlords instill fear and dread in many. ๐ณ๐ซ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฏ๐๐จ๐๐๐น.๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ
Olivia knows that besides the ten overlords, there are some old folks in the underground world with strength not inferior to theirs!
It's just that perhaps with age, they no longer pursue fame and wealth as they did in their youth, instead slowly retreating into the shadows, leaving the land to the younger generation for development.
But if these old folks emerge, they cannot be underestimated. Olivia even knows there are a few old freaks she might not be able to handle!
Now, without knowing what's happening, the entire underground world is becoming unusually active.
Of course, such activity is hard for ordinary people in the underground world to detectโunless you reach a certain level, you'll remain unaware.
Clearly, Olivia stands at the pinnacle of the underground world, so she can easily sense changes in the underground world.
"Some old folks are coming out to dance?"
"It's a possibility!" Olivia said softly: "Anyway, whatever happens, it's better to be cautious. Also, I think these old folks coming out might be because the underground world is unstable now, the overlords are incomplete, and too many people are vying for the overlord position!"
"If the struggle continues like this, the underground world will suffer severely. They might be coming out to stabilize order or perhaps targeting you!"
"I didn't provoke them..."
"You didn't provoke them, but you killed a few overlords..."
"And those you killed!"
"I'd like to see if they dare to touch me!" Olivia declared arrogantly.
Olivia is of the blood race and has a family backing her, although Ye Xunhuan hasn't seen Olivia's family, their strength is undoubtedly formidable.
In addition to Olivia's own strength, unless one is courting death or acting recklessly, no one would generally want to mess with Olivia.
Much like with the Church, which has always been at odds with the blood race and werewolves, Olivia has always lived freely, and even if she met someone from the Church, even the Pope Louis wouldn't act against Olivia.
Because they all know messing with Olivia is just too troublesome.
But Ye Xunhuan is different, he's from Huaxia, and he has Huaxia's precious Taiji Seal, making him an obvious target.
In contrast, Olivia has nothing, so people have no business targeting her.
But of course, if the outside world knew Olivia had Cain's left hand, that would be a different story!
