Master of Strange Dao

Sure, here is the translation:

Thinking it over carefully, the Earth Devil Venerate was undead and indestructible. Even though those hungry ghosts could eat Devils, it wasn't possible for just anyone to devour the Earth Devil Venerate. Previously, that figure seemed weak and was still a human. How could he have consumed the Earth Devil Venerate? Perhaps the Earth Devil Venerate allowed himself to be devoured intentionally, and then covertly took control, taking over the host's body. Originally, everything proceeded silently and imperceptibly. Outsiders probably all believed the Earth Devil Venerate was doomed.

When everything was settled and everyone thought the Earth Devil Venerate was dead, in reality, he had already infiltrated the deepest depths. This kind of infiltration performance was something even the Heavenly Demon had to learn. The Head of Freedom Heaven thought it over and agreed with what the Left of Freedom Heaven said. That Confusing Heart Devil was a fool. Putting aside the terrifying infiltration of the Earth Devil Venerate, the Confusing Heart Devil actually thought everything was like before, assuming gathering Devils would force Qing Ziyu out.

No wonder the Earth Devil Venerate said it ruined his major plans. If Devils rushed out of the Abyssal Rift, Qing Ziyu, his current physical form, who supposedly had a stellar reputation, would definitely have to go to the Abyssal Rift. If he didn't go, his reputation would be ruined, and the Earth Devil Venerate's grand plan would be destroyed. But if he came, as the Earth Devil Venerate hadn't perfectly concealed himself yet, and if discovered by some outside top-level human strong figure, the grand plan would be ruined.

Confusing Heart Devil was an ancient fool, and the Left of Freedom Heaven was also a fool. Knowing this wouldn't succeed, why didn't they stop it? All this effort was a waste. King Jiunian and the others expended great cost to release Confusing Heart Devil, surely not just for him to sabotage things. The Head of Freedom Heaven looked around.

"Is there a secret chamber?"

The Left of Freedom Heaven frowned and nodded.

"What could require a secret chamber to discuss? But, I know where there is one."

After half a day, they borrowed a sect's secret chamber and sneaked inside to converse. The Head of Freedom Heaven checked the secret chamber carefully. Only after confirming the specifications were adequate did he sigh.

"Now I give you a choice, either we both die together, or you go to die."

"???" The Left of Freedom Heaven was completely puzzled.

"Actually, it was not that adult who was going to die, but that he had quietly infiltrated a place you wouldn't dare approach. Otherwise, why do you think I am still alive? And not only I am alive, but other Devils are also alive there. Able to openly appear in that place. Never mind whether you could, would you even dare?"

"Hold on..." The Left of Freedom Heaven was greatly shocked, pondering the words even the Head of Freedom Heaven dared not name: "You're telling the truth?"

"It couldn't be truer. That adult thought I was meddling, ruining his plans; I nearly died. Even if I'm not dead now, I've been washed over by that adult's Three Calamities powers several times. If I don't return in a few days, I'll likely die too. If you and I merge, we'd both have to die. Though this is mainly about Confusing Heart Devil, you were also involved. And you agreed with that adult's plan to infiltrate human society to accomplish the grand scheme. So now, you must go to die."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible." The Left of Freedom Heaven's worldview was overturned. He was shocked but felt there was definitely some major problem within.

"That adult truly couldn't die. Even in ancient times, stronger beings couldn't kill him. Though this era has produced hungry ghosts, they would have to be at least Tenth Tier, or even above, to have the slightest chance to kill that adult. In this world now, under that adult's many years of scheming, there's simply no Tenth Tier Strong left. The effect of everyone's planning pales compared to that adult. With just his power alone, he lowered the power of human society by a whole tier. What formidable awe and means he has. If you're unwilling to die, why not we both go die now? Better than falling into that adult's hands later. That would still count as good, at least dying a bit quicker. If later on, that adult saves the Heavenly Devil King too, it would be hard for us to even die if we wanted to. Though we are apart now, we were once one. You choose how to proceed."

After finishing, the Head of Freedom Heaven quietly stared at the Left of Freedom Heaven. Even though the Head of Freedom Heaven didn't even have a physical form, in a real fight, he surely wasn't the Left of Freedom Heaven's match. But he could drag the Left of Freedom Heaven into ruin together.

Left in shock and doubt, the Left of Freedom Heaven couldn't digest all this information for quite a while; the turnaround was simply too bizarre. Yet he couldn't pinpoint exactly what was wrong. He even faintly believed in his heart that that adult truly saw through those humans, and his ideals strangely aligned with his own. Moreover, the adult did far better than he could.

"My death or not doesn't really matter; you and I are one. If I die, as long as you survive, we still live. But what about Confusing Heart Devil's side?"

"Absolutely do not notify him; do not inform him. Such an ancient fool would only mess things up if he knew. He's destined for failure; let him die. Even if there's a chance in the future, let him die at that adult's hands. Thus, that adult's status among humans will be even more secure, so no one will suspect. I even suspect King Jiu Nian and Heavenly Devil King intentionally did these things. After all, doing absolutely nothing would be too abnormal. To spend so much just to send an ancient fool who knows nothing, then die at that adult's hands."
