Shadow Hack

Panda Novel

Li Yunmu walked out of the lowest level with Brunhilda and a group of expressionless maids following behind, none of whom dared to even breathe loudly.

“You can go.”

After hearing the command, the maids quickly ran away.

Brunhilda looked at them scurrying away and said with a smile, “They were really afraid of you. But what exactly are you thinking?”

Li Yunmu mysteriously smiled and whispered in Brunhilda’s ears, “Just some mischief to make Asura City even more chaotic.”

“Really?” Brunhilda asked in astonishment.

She looked at Li Yunmu with an incredulous gaze until he nodded, and only then did she believe him. If Li Yunmu’s words were true, Asura City was a nest of talented individuals. The ancient gods of Land of Ice were roughly comparable to those of Lanlou, since both had seven main ones plus the others.

“Let’s go. We should watch from the platform this play that I so meticulously planned.”

Li Yunmu embraced Brunhilda and entered the spectator stand of the colosseum, then walked directly to the platform on the third level. When the direct descendants sitting in the spectator stand saw what he was doing, their expressions filled with astonishment.

“Morrow Clan… Only two of them, and they should be branch family descendants. Why did they come to the third level? When did the branch family descendants gained the guts to sit on the platform?”

“This branch family descendant is really arrogant. The woman by his side should also be a branch family descendant? But why does she have two arms above her head?”

A group of direct disciples sitting near the edge discussed what they were seeing. When one of the direct descendants of Morrow Clan sitting near the end saw Chen Xiu’s face, his complexion instantly turned pale.

At the time Patriarch was interrogating Chen Xiu, he had been standing outside the hall through it all. But the youth did not say anything about Chen Xiu having soared to heaven in one step and becoming a god as well as god father’s son.

If he spoke up, it was highly possible that he would die. As for the people commenting on the situation near him, he pretended not to hear it.

Li Yunmu and Brunhilda stepped on the platform and sat down near Duo Ju. As the manager, Duo Ju was thinking about how to curry favor with the four young masters, so when he heard the comments, he turned around and saw two branch family descendants sitting near him. Fury erupted in his heart and he bellowed:

“You, a branch family descendant, dares to sit on this platform? Don’t you understand the rules? Come people—”

Before he could finish speaking, a divine presence spread out from Li Yunmu’s body and forced Duo Ju to kneel down.

“Lord, I was blind and didn’t see your distinguished self,” Duo ju instantly said while trembling. “Goddamn me, goddamn me,”

The group of direct descendants sitting in the spectator stand under the platform had countless suspicions in their hearts. The two people who should have been chased out were sitting on the chair while the manager who loves to boss people around was kneeling on the ground.

Li Yunmu had only focused his presence on Duo Ju, so no one else understood what had happened. Once he released Dou Ju, he waved his hand and said, “Find someone to serve me.”

After hearing his words, Duo Ju hastily stood up. He quickly ran down the high platform and chose a few maids to serve Li Yunmu. After doing that, he followed the maids up the stairs and also stopped beside Li Yunmu while full of excitement.

The unknown person was surprisingly a god! If Duo Ju properly waited upon him, he would be greatly rewarded. Moreover, besides just rewards, it was highly possible that he would soar to the sky in one step. Although the god did not belong to his clan, a god was still a god. Even the patriarchs had to hear their words.

When Duo Ju thought about that, he quickly bowed himself slightly, placed his hands behind his back, and perked up his ears. As long as the lord god gave any command, he would immediately carry it out.

The numerous maids brought fruits and tea and spread them on the platform. Li Yunmu looked at the competition going underneath with full attention while Brunhilda at his side looked at the changed attitude of Duo Ju and laughed in her heart.

If the manager knew that the following competition would be of three young masters against a group of beasts, would he still be hell bent on serving them?

The battle in the fighting arena was in full swing, regardless of whether the beast attacked or the combatant, both of them attracted a wave of cheers from the spectators, The atmosphere in the colosseum was becoming livelier and livelier.

But the more excited everyone grew, the more focused the combatant and the beast in the arena became. Both of them gazed straight at each other. In the arena, only one side could live. Whoever did not want to die more had to kill the enemy to survive.

The people of Asura City, who were innately fighters, loved to watch bloody battles, unlike the bloodlines of the other ancient gods.

Li Yunmu was watching with some interest the sight of how mortals killed vicious beasts and survived. That moment between life and death was rather interesting.

At that moment, the system which had stayed hidden in his brain until then woke up and said, [Finally, I almost choked to death, trying to conceal my presence.]

“Aren’t you being too brazen appearing over here? If Asura sensed your presence, the next battle between gods might not happen and it would turn into everyone in Lanlou trying to hunt the two of us. Were your earlier words really true though? Does this Asura City truly hide so much strength?”

While watching the battles, Li Yunmu kept communicating with the system.

[Of course it is true. When we were outside Asura City, I sensed that Asura stood at the pinnacle of ancient gods. Or no, it would be better to say that his cultivation is comparable to a quasi master god.

[I thought I could conceal your ancient god strength, but not hide it in front of a quasi master god like Asura. I hadn’t expected that he had been conspiring for so long while hiding his strength.]

“Apart from Asura, the other four ancient god presences should belong to the four ancestors of four great clans. But I am curious about why the city lord, who is a direct descendant of similar status, is only a god,” Li Yunmu said with suspicion in his voice.

Before coming to Asura City, Li Yunmu knew that although he only had the cultivation of a god, he could erupt with strength that was comparable to that of master gods. But once he entered Asura City, he discovered that not only was Asura already a quasi master god, his four sons were also ancient gods.

It could be said that Asura City’s concealed strength far surpassed that of the other six cities.

[Yes, how could you push the gods into a battle of gods… If being logical, the other five ancient gods should already know that Ancient God Lakshmi suffered severe injuries and Asura already possesses the strength of a master god. With that knowledge, they might change sides before the battle and first take out the weakest among them,] the system analyze.

“All I want to do is create some chaos. We should wait until I get close to Asura as his trusted aide and attack him. Naturally, his strength is roughly comparable to that of the other six ancient gods joined together. But Asura has always been very confident so I feel that he has some backup prepared. This sneak attack plan should be discussed properly.”

The system did not reply and just concealed itself once more.
