Chapter 1260 Wasting time.
Their previous fight had left Jeffrey rattled, and he believed that Lex\'s plan for revenge was genuinely a huge threat. It was as if everything… everything was playing right into his hands.
Unless…
Jeffrey began looking around frantically, exerting his mind to try and determine if he was still in an illusion. This had to be fake! This had to be… unless…
As Jeffrey\'s sanity slowly unraveled, the Heart Demon within him smiled remorsefully. Were it not for the two incredibly dangerous guards outside, this would have been its opportunity to devour Jeffrey\'s heart and take over his body, effectively becoming a new Jeffrey. Unfortunately, it could not.
"What the hell is this?" asked the first guard, a tall, slim orc. He peered into Jeffrey\'s body, trying to understand what that unusual green light was. The other guard, who looked like a massive leopard, scanned the planet they were on, observing for any anomalies.
It detected signs of teleportation, though it couldn\'t locate where it happened.
"Jeffrey, did you betray us?" the orc asked as he choked the baby wyverns neck. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"No, no! Why would I betray you! I\'ve been trying to tell everyone that we\'re being targeted."
"Of course we know we\'re being targeted," the orc scoffed. "But even the best of the Henali Dao Lords cannot find us. Of that, we have made certain."
"No, no, it\'s not the Henali who are targeting us, nor are they Dao Lords! It\'s Lex! It might be the Midnight Inn! There is something seriously wrong with him, trust me!"
"A puny human, barely entered into the Earth immortal realm? Is he even worthy of targeting us? As far as the Inn is concerned, we have already started to observe it on the insistence of Einstein. If the owner of the Inn makes a move, we will know."
"Bairsh, someone teleported onto the planet but I can\'t find them," the leopard said after a few seconds, startling the orc. The orc narrowed its eye, beginning to wonder if Jeffrey\'s claims had some truth to them. At that very moment, Jeffrey\'s body disappeared from the orc\'s hands.
"Do not worry, brother Jeffrey," Lex\'s voice boomed over the entire base, suddenly forcing it to enter into a state of emergency.
The two Heavenly immortals reacted instantly, attacking the source of the voice, but what they attacked was a mere illusion. As soon as it was destroyed, another illusion appeared of Lex holding Jeffrey.
"I will not let these guards hurt you. Just like you said, brother Jeffrey, Sanguis Pluvia is too focused on defending against the Henali. They did not expect some other force to act against them at all. The weaker the infiltrator, the less likely they are to notice."
The two Heavenly immortals focused on the illusion and immediately saw through it. It was being projected onto the planet using some kind of treasure. The actual person who kidnapped Jeffrey had already left the planet!
Just as they thought they had been duped, they sensed another spatial fluctuation. By the time they arrived at the location, the person had come, and once again left the planet!
"Lockdown the planet. We\'ve been discovered," said Bairsh the orc.
Yet while that was what he said, the two immortals began acting against the infiltrator. No matter how powerful Lex was within his realm, he could not contend against a Heavenly Immortal yet.
A moment later, when he reappeared on the planet, he discovered that he could no longer access space laws, effectively preventing him from teleporting.
The two Heavenly immortals appeared right after, ready to capture him, but paused when they saw the sight of two Heavenly immortal level missiles hanging above a smiling Lex.
"Come now guys, do you really think I\'d be under prepared after good old brother Jeffrey told me everything about you?" Meanwhile, the tiny wyvern within Lex\'s grip seemed to have gone insane, repeatedly muttering "this is an illusion" to itself.
"It is impossible for Jeffrey to betray the organization. The fact that you would even suggest such a thing reveals just how little you know about us."
"Oh, but weren\'t you accusing Jeffrey of exactly that just a moment ago?" Lex asked, cocking his head.
Before he could get an answer, the two Heavenly missiles behind him fell out of the sky. Lex lost all control of them, unable to touch them at all, and they became inert as well, unable to explode.
The two immortals struck again, this time grabbing onto Lex. But instead of an illusion, he was a clone, and as soon as he was attacked, the clone popped.
Another Lex appeared in the distance. The two immortals frowned.
"Guys, let\'s make it easy for one another. You just bring Damien to me, and I\'ll forget this whole thing ever happened. We can part on decent terms."
Instead of responding, the Heavenly immortals instead asked him a question.
"I can clearly feel your aura. You\'re only an Earth immortal. How can you fool our senses of laws? No wait, you can\'t possibly do that. Who is backing you up? Is it the Henali?"
Lex only shook his head. Why would he answer such a question? The answer was… to spend as much time as possible.
"After brother Jeffrey told me that you\'re wary of the Henali, why would I ever work with them? No, I just went to a broker and struck a deal."
A black portal opened next to Lex, and a devil stepped out.
