Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 Win! Win! Win! Everyone's won so much they're numb!

  Boom!

  Two divine thoughts collided, then immediately dispersed.

  ...

  In Jiang Yi's dormitory.

  Buzz!

  The Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd emitted a buzzing sound, and the purplish-black abyssal power emanated like a living thing, quickly enveloping the entire dormitory and completely concealing all the auras inside.

  At the same time,

  "Hahaha!"

  A hearty laugh came from the Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd, and Jiang Yi, who was pretending to be asleep, also "woke up" at the right time.

  "Father!"

  Jiang Yi's hazy eyes suddenly snapped awake the moment he saw the Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd.

  He quickly got out of bed and made a gesture to pay his respects.

  "No need for formalities!"

  The voice of the Abyss Saint King came from the Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd, his tone filled with undisguised laughter.

  "Yes!"

  Jiang Yi stood up as instructed, his face full of doubt and confusion, looking at the Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd.

  "Father! What were you doing just now...?"

  "Hahaha! You've done a great service this time!"

  The Abyss Saint King didn't explain directly, but instead praised him lavishly, his joy almost overflowing.

  "The spirit of the Douluo Continent's plane has been hiding for so long, and today, I've finally discovered its trace!"

  The Abyss Saint King's voice turned cold, smug, and sneered.

  For thousands of years, the Abyss and the Douluo Continent had been constantly at war, and they were very familiar with each other.

  But the spirit of the Douluo Continent's plane had never appeared, which had always been his point of suspicion.

  The unknown is the most terrifying!

  Therefore, the Abyss plane had only been constantly probing, trying to force the spirit of the other plane to show itself.

  But thousands of years had passed, and it was still nowhere to be seen.

  Unexpectedly, he had stumbled upon it today!

  "The spirit of the plane?"

  Jiang Yi couldn't help but ask.

  "Yes! That aura just now was definitely a being above the god level. In the entire Douluo Continent, it could only be the spirit of the plane."

  The Abyss Saint King slowly explained.

  The Douluo Continent also lacks a God Realm; apart from the Spirits of the Planes, no other beings can become gods.

  "Father! Could this be a conspiracy..."

  Jiang Yi asked tentatively, a hint of worry on his face.

  Tang San's grand plan succeeded because of the information gap with the Abyss Saint King.

  If the Abyss Saint King had known anything, he wouldn't have been so easily killed by Tang Hao's hammer. The Abyss Saint King being manipulated unilaterally was not the outcome Jiang Yi wanted.

  The two sides had to fight, the more intense the better, ideally until their brains were knocked out.

  Revealing the right information at the right time, stirring up trouble on both sides—that was Jiang Yi's job.

  "A conspiracy! It is naturally a conspiracy!"

  The Abyss Saint King laughed confidently, his tone carrying a sense of superiority that seemed to see through everything.

  Clearly awake, yet refusing to show himself—what else could it be but a conspiracy?

  However…

  "So what if it's a conspiracy? Before absolute power, any conspiracy or trickery is nothing but a futile joke!"

  The Abyss Saint King sneered. Since the other side only dared to resort to such petty tricks of hiding and revealing, it meant his strength was far inferior to his own.

  Otherwise, in a direct confrontation, the opponent wouldn't need to hide from him at all. "

  Then I'll make sure you have nowhere to hide! " the Abyss Saint King

  sneered inwardly. Now that he had figured out the opponent's weaknesses, his invasion plan could naturally become more aggressive and daring.

  "Yi'er!"

  The Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd trembled slightly, and the Abyss Saint King's voice became more serious.

  "If I'm not mistaken, it was protecting this year's Chosen One just now. They shouldn't have noticed you."

  "I need you to do one thing: infiltrate the Chosen One's side and report all their plans to me."

  Before he finished speaking, light gathered at the tip of the Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd, then separated into three purplish-black energy spheres emitting terrifying energy fluctuations.

  These three primordial forces, as if possessing life, quickly flew towards Jiang Yi, transforming into three black marks connected end to end on his left wrist.

  "These are my three Abyss Origin Powers, each capable of unleashing a god-level attack, enough to help you resolve most crises. I leave them to you for protection,"

  the Abyss Saint Lord's voice slowly emanated. Now that the existence of the enemy's Plane Spirit was confirmed, protecting Jiang Yi, this thorn in the enemy's side, was crucial.

  As long as Jiang Yi could continuously transmit information from Douluo Continent, the Abyss would be assured of victory. "

  You think I'm on the first level? But this Saint Lord has already seen through your disguise. Actually, I'm on the third level!

  The enemy is in the light, I am in the shadows—victory!"   

  "Your son thanks Your Majesty for the favor! I will certainly not fail Your Majesty's trust!"

  Jiang Yi's face lit up with joy as he quickly expressed his gratitude, his heart filled with sincerity.

  No matter what, a godfather who could drop gold coins was a good godfather!

  "Hmm! This matter concerns the grand undertaking of the plane, you must act with caution, and prioritize your own safety!"

  The Abyss Saint King added a word of caution. Then, the light on the Heavenly Saint Abyss Split Halberd gradually subsided, transforming back into a faint glow that entered Jiang Yi's body.

  He needed to return immediately to redeploy the invasion plan of the Abyss Plane based on this discovery.

  After the Abyss Saint King left, Jiang Yi activated the system's aura shielding function again.

  He then focused his consciousness into his mind; in his system inventory, a treasure chest with a noble purple halo shimmering around its edge floated quietly.

  Backstabbing one's godfather—the system rewards different levels of critical hit treasure chests, such as white, green, blue, purple, and gold, depending on the strength of the backstab!

  This time, he received a purple one!

  [Open the treasure chest!]

  Jiang Yi opened the treasure chest with a thought, and a purple light flashed.

  [Ding!] [Congratulations, host, you've gained +20% favorability with Ah Yin!]

  "Wait... System, are you kidding me? What the hell is favorability? What can I do with 100% favorability?"

  Jiang Yi stared at the reward, speechless. This was the first time he'd ever received something so abstract.

  The system's explanation was concise, just four words:

  [Do whatever you want!]

  Jiang Yi: ? ? ?

  Wait, system, come out and explain yourself! Is this favorability... is it even legitimate?!

  ...

  A moment later.

  "Time to go to the other side."

  Jiang Yi straightened his clothes, calmed his mind, and leaped out of the dormitory again.

  He always treated everyone equally!

  ...

  Inside the girls' dormitory.

  "I was careless!"

  Tang San's face was somewhat grim. Seeing his daughter again, he had momentarily forgotten about the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd on Jiang Yi's body.

  It was only because he reacted quickly and withdrew his divine sense in time that he could still leave some traces from that brief contact.

  Just then, a dark figure returned.

  "Father! Something terrible has happened!"

  Jiang Yi rushed in from the balcony.

  "Hmm?"

  Tang San frowned, looking at Jiang Yi who had returned, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

  "How is it on the Abyss? Has he noticed my presence?"

  "No... but he seems to have mistaken you for Grandpa..."

  Jiang Yi shook his head, then told Tang San about the Abyss Saint's guess in detail.

  "That's good..."

  Upon hearing this, Tang San's tense expression relaxed slightly, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

  If his existence were exposed prematurely, the entire ten-thousand-year plan would be subject to countless variables. Even if his father was guessed to some extent, it wouldn't be a big deal.

  [Ding! Host successfully betrayed the Abyss Saint, obtaining a critical hit treasure chest! (Purple)]

  The system notification sounded in Jiang Yi's mind.

  "It's just Grandpa's exposure..."

  Jiang Yi ignored the system and said hesitantly, his eyes filled with worry.

  "It's alright!"

  Tang San waved his hand, his face regaining its composed and confident expression.

  "Since he guessed it, let's play along!"

  There's more than one plane spirit in Douluo Continent!

  As long as his father reveals a weakness at the right moment, the opponent will only bite faster.

  You think I think you're on the first level? Actually, I, Tang San, am on the fourth!

  The advantage is still mine! Victory!
