Chapter 335: Borrowing a Knife to Kill

Chapter 335 Using a borrowed knife to kill

Lin Fei walked back to the thatched hut where the Day Wanderer lived, his expression extremely solemn. Through his previous probing, he realized that the Asura King's strength far exceeded his expectations. Even now, he probably wouldn't be a match for the Asura King.

Even if he and the Sun God joined forces, they probably wouldn't have much of a chance of winning. And because of the nameless monk's attack earlier, the Black Tortoise and the Spirit Serpent would likely be unable to attack again for a while. Dealing with this Asura King was truly a tricky matter.

Fortunately, Lin Fei's disguise as the Day Wanderer God did not arouse the suspicion of the Asura King. If he had rashly gone to the Asura King's door, even if he could escape unscathed, he would probably have no chance to obtain the power of the Asura Path's Reincarnation Origin from the Asura King.

……

Lin Fei pushed open the door of the thatched hut and went inside. The Sun God and the Roaming God, who had been waiting inside, immediately came to greet him.

Seeing Lin Fei's bruised and swollen face, the Day Wanderer felt extremely guilty and said repeatedly, "My lord, it's all my fault. I should never have agreed to let you risk your life and end up like this!"

"It's none of your business!" Lin Fei waved his hand and said, "I wasn't injured at all. I was just putting on an act to deceive people."

As he spoke, Lin Fei's appearance changed and returned to his original form, and the injuries on his body completely disappeared.

Lin Fei not only possessed the divine protection of the Day-Roaming God, but also activated his Vajra Indestructible Divine Art to protect himself when attacked by the Asura King. The Asura King's attack didn't cause him any serious injury. His feigned pitiful state was merely to deceive the Asura King.

Seeing that Lin Fei had not suffered any serious injuries, Mao Ri Xingjun and Ri Youshen breathed a sigh of relief.

The Star Lord of the Rabbit asked, "My lord, how strong is the Asura King? If you were to face him, would you have a chance of victory?"

Lin Fei looked solemn and shook his head, saying, "The Asura King's strength is even greater than I expected. I'm afraid even if the two of us join forces, we might not be able to defeat him easily."

The Rabbit Star Lord snorted coldly, unconvinced: "A mere native, and a seriously injured one at that, can't possibly be that powerful. With the help of you, are we afraid of him?"

The Rabbit Star Lord is not like the Roaming God of the Day, whom everyone bullies. He was once a Human Immortal, though now he only possesses the strength of a Dharma Aspect. But the Asura King was also severely injured. The Rabbit Star Lord doesn't believe that he and Lin Fei, working together, can't defeat a mere native.

Lin Fei shook his head and said, "While the two of us joining forces certainly have a high chance of winning, it's probably not something that can be resolved in a day or two. We don't have that much time!"

If Lin Feiruo and the Sun God join forces, their chances of defeating the Asura King are about 70%. However, even if they want to defeat the Asura King, it will likely be a protracted and arduous battle.

Lin Fei now only has less than a day left. After careful consideration, he realized he had absolutely no chance of defeating the Asura King within that timeframe.

Lin Fei's mind raced as he considered how to defeat the Asura King within half a day.

After a long pause, Lin Fei said thoughtfully, "With our current strength, we have no chance to deal with the Asura King in a short time. The only option now is to use someone else to do our dirty work!"

"Using someone else to do the dirty work?" Mao Ri Xingjun looked puzzled, having no idea what Lin Fei was talking about.

However, the old man, Riyoushen, was much quicker-witted than Maori Xingjun. His eyes lit up as he said, "What you are talking about, sir, could it be the corpse left behind by the Buddhist monk who injured the Asura King? I once overheard the Asura King's subordinates mentioning that the monk's corpse was still in the Asura Realm, and that it retained a trace of its former divine power, so no one dared to approach it."

"He is a monk, but not one from the Asura Realm." Lin Fei smiled slightly and beckoned to the two of them: "Come closer and I will explain the plan to you in detail."

……

Inside the Asura King's palace, he had just given the Day Wanderer a good beating and was feeling quite pleased with himself.

Back then, the Asura King was also full of ambition, wanting to break through the world of the Asura Path, enter the Great Thousand World, and establish an unparalleled foundation.

Little did he expect that, having just escaped the Asura Path, he would immediately run into the group of monks from Leiyin Temple. Not only were they forced to turn back, but they also left him with indelible injuries, likely preventing him from ever returning to his peak condition.

Since his injury, the Asura King's lofty ambitions had long been extinguished over the countless years, leaving him only with endless indulgence in pleasure. When he was in a bad mood, he would send someone to summon the Day Wanderer so he could experience the thrill of trampling ancient gods underfoot.

King Shura had just finished beating up the Day Wanderer and was in a good mood. He was sitting in his palace, enjoying the song and dance performance by his subordinates, when a soldier rushed in from outside in a panic.

"Something terrible has happened, Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened!" The soldier cried out in a panic, kneeling down with a thud.

"What happened?" The Asura King frowned, his face showing displeasure. "Can't you see I'm enjoying myself? What's the rush? Can't you report it later?"

"Your Majesty, there's a Taoist priest in yellow robes outside, claiming he wants to enter the palace and take Your Majesty's head. He's already advancing towards the palace!" the soldier who came to report said repeatedly. "That Taoist priest is extremely powerful; none of our brothers are a match for him. Many have already died at his hands!"

"What?!" The Asura King was furious and stood up abruptly. "How dare you! Who is so arrogant in this Asura Realm?"

Ever since the Asura King defeated the Day Wanderer, the original master of the Asura Realm, the entire Asura World has been completely under his control. For countless years, no one has dared to cause him trouble; even the Day Wanderer trembles in fear under his might. The Asura King truly cannot fathom who dared to come to the palace seeking death.

"I want to see which one of these three-headed, six-armed bastards dares to come looking for trouble with me!" King Shura snorted and walked straight outside, ordering his men in the palace, "Follow me and seal off the entire palace. Don't let that person escape!"

The Asura King led his men out of the palace and ordered his Asura subordinates to seal off the entire palace, determined to kill the reckless bastard within its walls.

And the one who didn't care about his life was naturally Lin Fei.
