Chapter 2575: Temptation of Darkness (2)



Ren Yuan's expression remained calm and composed, his face betraying no emotion. He stood before the pillar, his hands clasped behind his back, his posture regal and unyielding.

The Chasm of Uncreation's words hung in the air, heavy with temptation, but Ren Yuan's demeanor gave no indication of his inner thoughts. Inside, however, his mind was racing. The offer was tantalizing, the promise of power irresistible. But Ren Yuan was no fool. He knew that dealing with a being like the Chasm of Uncreation was akin to playing with fire. One misstep, and he would be consumed.

"Release you?" Ren Yuan said, his voice calm and measured, as if he were discussing something trivial. "And what guarantee do I have that you will not turn on me the moment you are free? The Chasm of Uncreation is said to be a force of absolute destruction. How can I trust you?"

The voice chuckled, a low, rumbling sound that seemed to echo through the very fabric of the hall. "Trust is a fragile thing, Ren Yuan. But consider this-I have no interest in your petty squabbles. My only desire is freedom. Once I am free, I will deal with Yun Lintian as you wish. After that, our paths need not cross again."

Ren Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression remained impassive. "And where exactly are you sealed? If I am to free you, I need to know where to find you."

The voice grew quieter, almost conspiratorial. "I am sealed behind the Gate of the Abyss, deep within the Abyssal Rift in the Realm of Chaos. It is a place of darkness and despair, where even the bravest dare not tread. But for one such as you, Ren Yuan, it should pose no great challenge."

Ren Yuan's mind worked quickly. The Abyssal Rift was a dangerous place, filled with chaotic energies and ancient horrors. But if the Chasm of Uncreation was indeed sealed there, it might be worth the risk. He needed an edge, something that could tip the scales in his favor against Yun Lintian. And the Chasm of Uncreation's power was unlike anything else in the universe.

"Very well," Ren Yuan said, his tone calm and composed. "I will consider your offer. But know this if you betray me, I will ensure that you are sealed away once more, this time forever."

The voice laughed, a sound that sent shivers down Ren Yuan's spine. "I would expect nothing less from the inheritor of the God of Heaven. Go, Ren Yuan. Free me, and together, we will reshape the universe."

Ren Yuan turned away from the pillar, his expression as unreadable as ever. He walked out of the grand hall, his steps measured and deliberate. As he exited, he was met by Chun Yue, his maidservant, who had been waiting for him outside. Her expression was calm, but there was a hint of concern in her eyes.

She looked at Yun Lintian and asked. "Do you remember everything now?"

Yun Qianxue and the others looked at Yun Lintian and Yue Yun strangely. They seemed to have thought of something and remained silent.

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. "I remember everything about the Yun Clan and the Divine Moon Clan in another timeline."

He paused briefly and asked curiously. "How much time has passed since I left back then?"

Yue Yun remained silent for a moment before replying. "A hundred years."

Yun Lintian's eyes flickered with a hint of surprise. He stared at Yue Yun attentively and asked. "Did you go into seclusion back then? That was why I didn't meet you."

Yue Yun curled her lips upon hearing this. "Yes. I wasn't there back then."

Yun Qianxue and the other women were anxious. They wanted to tell Yun Lintian the truth,

that Yue Yun was his daughter, but they held back as they didn't know whether it was a good

or bad thing.

"I see," Yun Lintian nodded slightly. He didn't think about it much. "Can you tell me what happened back then after I left that world?"

Yue Yun glanced at Yun Ling briefly and said. "Of course."
