Chapter 1038: What Can You Do About It
Si Xiaonan, Leng Xuan, and An Qingyu retreated rapidly without a word, draped in the [Predestined Coincidence Veil]!
At this moment, without the protection of the [Predestined Coincidence Veil], Singh was like a little sheep stripped completely bare, exposed under the watchful gazes of the countless Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.
"Who are you?!"
The leading Heavenly General stepped forward, abruptly drawing the sword at his waist, pointing its tip at Singh's nose!
Clang—!!
Hundreds of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals drew their swords simultaneously. A terrifying aura intertwined, pressing down on Singh's heart like a mountain!
Singh's pupils constricted.
Too strong.
The combined might of these Heavenly Soldiers and Generals was simply too overwhelming.
By his own strength, Singh believed he could take on several dozen Heavenly Soldiers one-on-one, but with so many attacking together, he stood no chance whatsoever.
Moreover, beyond these Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, several gazes from Great Xia deities fell upon him. An unprecedented pressure shrouded his heart, leaving him utterly unable to summon even a flicker of resistance.
It was only at this moment that Singh realized he had fallen into Si Xiaonan's trap!
From the very beginning, Si Xiaonan had intended to use these Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to eliminate him!
First, she had performed a cleverly staged act with that servant called Xiao An, piquing his interest. Then she played a game of advance and retreat, dispelling his guard against her. He had willingly requested to wear the [Predestined Coincidence Veil] and join their group... and now, under the watchful eyes of countless Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, he had fallen into an irretrievable abyss.
The moment he draped that veil over himself, he had become a puppet dancing in Si Xiaonan's hands.
This whole affair had been a trap from the start!
Damn it!
To hell with this goddess of scheming!!
"There are others! There are more rats hiding nearby! They were the ones who brought me here! They're in that direction!!"
An unprecedented unwillingness burned in Singh's eyes. He bellowed hysterically at the Heavenly General before him, pointing toward some empty space—even if he had to accept his defeat, he wanted to drag Si Xiaonan and the others down with him.
Unfortunately, he had overlooked a crucial point.
The Heavenly Generals of Great Xia could not understand his heavily accented English.
Looking at this bizarre foreigner rattling off nonsense, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals exchanged glances, their eyes full of confusion.
"Could this be a spy sent by the Foreign Gods?"
"Looks like it."
"Should we take him directly?"
"Wait, let me consult with the higher-ups. What if he's a mount or pet belonging to some Great Xia deity?"
"Fair point... let's just keep him kneeling like this for now."
One Heavenly Soldier rushed off toward the banquet hall, while the others continued gripping their swords, surrounding Singh.
Despair flickered in Singh's eyes.
...
Inside the banquet hall.
Yang Jian's cup passed through that Earth Eye and landed on the jade floor beside him with a tinkling sound.
Yang Jian's brow furrowed.
"So that's it. I almost got deceived." Andre stepped out from within that eye, his form materializing. He cast a cold smile around the surroundings—even facing the pressure of several Great Xia deities, there was not a trace of fear on his face.
"I was wondering why something felt off... so these were just a bunch of false phantoms. Trying to use this method to blind our eyes and pass incorrect intelligence back to the Mist?
Great Xia's deities must already be lacking in confidence to this extent, which means they truly are not in Great Xia—they have all mobilized.
The current Great Xia is nothing but an empty nation with no gods to guard it!
What a dangerous gambit, what a brilliant stratagem—but unfortunately... I have seen through it!"
For deities like Yang Jian and Nezha, even without understanding English, they could comprehend Andre's meaning through spiritual vibrations. However, existing only in this temporal echo of the past, they were unfamiliar with Great Xia's current situation and didn't quite grasp what Andre was saying.
Both of them turned simultaneously to look at Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye's expression grew grave.
The moment he saw Andre, he understood the purpose behind the Kunlun Mirror creating this temporal echo. If what Andre claimed was true—that the Great Xia deities had all mobilized—then the current Great Xia would inevitably be at its most vulnerable and empty.
Once the Foreign Gods learned of this, they would surely seize the opportunity to launch an attack, breach Great Xia's borders in one decisive strike, and invade.
Perhaps the Great Xia deities had long anticipated that someone would attempt to infiltrate the Kunlun Ruins to probe their strength. Therefore, they had used the Kunlun Mirror to leave behind this temporal echo of the past here, to confuse and mislead—to create the illusion that the Great Xia deities remained at full strength and were stationed defending Great Xia.
But now, that illusion had been shattered by Andre.
"Let me guess... where could that artifact that created these phantoms be hidden..."
Andre burst into laughter, his eyes filled with excitement. He took a stride forward, his form sinking into the earth, and the next instant, he appeared at the very center of the Peach Banquet venue.
For a moment, the gazes of everyone present fell upon him. The Gods of Great Xia stared in astonishment at this stranger with Western features, exchanging puzzled whispers.
The gracefully dancing celestial maidens halted their movements, and the melodious celestial music fell silent as well.
Andre stood in the center of the venue, his eyes revealing disdain. Under the watchful gazes of the deities, he moved about freely, rummaging through things with abandon.
In Andre's eyes, everything he could see was mere illusion, a show designed to intimidate. As long as he could locate the artifact that generated these phantoms, everything would unravel on its own... Though he had no idea where that artifact was, as long as he searched slowly, he would eventually find it. Perhaps he could even claim it for himself.
He felt no urgency about this. After all, no matter how much of a ruckus he caused, the phantoms of the Great Xia deities before him could not lay a finger on him.
"Who are you? How dare you storm the Peach Banquet—what audacity!" The Heavenly General of the Wide Gaze rose愤怒地站起身，厉声呵斥。
Andre glanced at him coolly. Though he couldn't understand what the other was saying, it was undoubtedly just those same hollow threats. If it were outside, encountering true Great Xia deities, perhaps he would indeed feel fear and trembling—but here, things were different.
The Gods of Great Xia he once couldn't afford to provoke were now beings he could freely ignore... This stark contrast granted Andre an inexplicable thrill of pleasure.
He索性停下脚步，微笑着张开双臂，三分不屑，七分鄙夷地开口：
"一群虚影罢了……真是可笑。今日我Andre就站在这，任你大夏众神齐聚于此，又能奈我何？"
He stopped in his tracks, a smile spreading across his face as he spread his arms wide—one part disdain, seven parts contempt, he spoke:
"A bunch of phantoms... how laughable. Today, I, Andre, stand right here. Even if all the Gods of Great Xia gather here, what can you possibly do to me?"
