Chapter 148: Ruling the World

"Ahem, well, aren't you all curious as to why I called Tendo back?"
"Not curious." "Nope." "No."
The three of them spoke in unison.
Feimo felt utterly awkward as he watched Tendo swagger over and plant herself heavily right in front of him, crossing her legs and assuming an arrogant posture as she said, "How about a deal?"
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
"I can keep your secret, but from now on, you are strictly forbidden from letting Yexi use the threat of a curse to make me do anything!"
"Why don't you just tell everyone yourself?" To everyone's absolute shock, Feimo shrugged, looking completely unconcerned and extraordinarily calm.
"What?"
Tendo doubted whether her ears were playing tricks on her.
"You might as well announce it to everyone for us." Feimo took Yotomi's hands, gazing at him with deep affection. "I don't want our relationship to remain a secret anymore. I want to give Yotomi official recognition."
Boom!
Yotomi's mind was struck by five consecutive bolts of thunder. Feimo's resonant words echoed repeatedly in his head, and the emotions of being deeply moved and long suppressed instantly erupted. At this moment, Feimo's haughtily spoiled little male concubine surprisingly and limply leaned against his man's chest.
"Damn it, dammit, dammit all!!!"
Tendo's mouth was wide enough to swallow an egg. She never expected that she, with her formidable strength, had always been completely suppressed by Feimo, and today she had finally managed to seize some leverage against him, only for this guy to smoothly turn the tables in his favor and push her into the center of a public storm.
If she spoke up, she would be disloyal and it would benefit the two of them; if she didn't speak up, she would suffocate from holding it in, while it still wouldn't do them any harm at all!
"So... to thank you for so empathetically putting yourself in my and Yotomi's shoes, big brother is going to give you a reward," Feimo said.
"Y-you, what are you trying to do?!"
Hearing this, Tendo instantly retreated, crossing her arms over her chest with an expression guarding against a creep.
"Of course, it's a reward for that curse of yours just now. Come on, Yexi, cast the curse."
"Is it really okay, Brother Feimo? I'm sorry, I'm starting then," Yexi said timidly and uncertainly.
"No way!" Tendo let out an angry roar and lunged straight at Feimo with a do-or-die expression. "Rather than missing out on the hot stuff even when eating shit, I'd rather fight you to the death today!"
The group instantly descended into chaos, filled with Tendo's scolding, Feimo's laughter, Yotomi's attempts to mediate, and Yexi's apologies.

"Something is approaching."
Though Tendo was sitting right on top of his head, Feimo's expression remained calm as he suddenly spoke up.
"Hmph. Just an advanced Class-A carrying a half-dead, half-baked advanced Class-S. If they dare show up, I'll tear them apart in minutes," Tendo said dismissively, continuing to press her weight down with her backside as she sneered, "Today for sure, I'm going to sit on your face until you suffocate!!"
With that, the palm-sized mass of flesh began to grind fiercely against Feimo's face.
"They're here," Yexi said weakly.
Boom!!!
The ceiling instantly collapsed. Blood-ink and pitch-black light burst forth amidst the swirling smoke, and a murderous Mu You materialized out of nowhere! Veins bulged across his face, and fierce, distorted patterns crossed his eyes. A pair of bloodthirsty, ghostly pupils reflected the light of an apocalyptic sunset.
Yet, despite his burning anxiety, Mu You was suddenly gripped by a bone-chilling aura. Facing his overwhelming and aggressive arrival, the few people in the room continued what they were doing with absolute nonchalance.
That casual indifference gave the impression that they didn't care about him at all. Within the bodies of those three individuals surged a terrifying, hidden power resembling dormant fiends, as if it could erupt at any second, while he felt merely like a furious sheep about to be completely dismembered and devoured by them.
Retreat!
Only this single thought remained in Mu You's mind. One advanced Class-A against three advanced Class-Ses meant certain death for him.
While there are green hills left, one need not worry about firewood.
Mu You instantly dashed toward the courtyard wall that Tendo had just destroyed. With the sound of tearing thunder, his body transformed into an afterimage, moving with ultimate velocity.
Though he had killed middle Class-S opponents before, these three constantly evoked an inexplicable chill within him. His companions had yet to be rescued, and now was the time to conserve his strength. Once he broke through to Class-S, he would not let any of these people go.
Even Class-SS was no longer Mu You's ultimate goal.
Ever since participating in the "Never Return" trial and experiencing numerous brushes with death, Mu You was no longer the bloodthirsty youth he once was. All the injustices inflicted upon him had to be settled piece by piece. Now, all he wanted was to grow stronger all the way, to reach the absolute pinnacle, and then... sever all this darkness and overturn this society!
As for why he had such ambition, it was entirely because of his innate talent and growth potential!
Surpass Class-SSS, butcher Mo Han, and completely destroy this Death Row Paradise!!
"Not chasing them?" Tendo was still sitting on Feimo's face, watching Mu You's disappearing back as she asked Feimo.
"The person chosen by Dongguan shouldn't be wrong. He is the best candidate for the 'ultimate turnaround' in our riot plan. Although he is still Class-A right now, this kid's evolution speed is terrifying enough to chill one to the bone. Not long ago, as a dangerous death row inmate, he was able to completely devastate the surface, and now he is just half a step away from entering Class-S. Such growth speed and talent, if he stands on our side, will undoubtedly be a massive asset."
"What if he treats us all equally as obstacles?" Yotomi glared at Tendo and asked Feimo with a heartache-filled expression as he pulled him up.
"He won't," Feimo said decisively.

"How can you be so certain?" The others asked in bewilderment.
"Because I believe in him!!"
The three of them: "Get lost!!"
...
The Fragment Dream Workshop was frighteningly massive. Although Mu You could still sense the direction of his friends, the interior of this place seemed to be infused with enzymes secreted by those fungi, severely disrupting his judgment.
"Damn it." His companions' spiritual word-powers were fluctuating erratically, on the verge of collapsing. At this very moment, Mu You could no longer hold back his attacks.
Blood splattered everywhere as the Blazing Silence Lotus instantly took form. This was the technique Mu You had used to devastate the surface during his berserk state, except this time, the Blazing Silence Lotus appeared in dual colors of blood-ink and pitch-black.
The dual-colored lotus flower suddenly expanded, blotting out the sun with unstoppable momentum.
"Open!"
Blood-red light permeated the air, thunder rolled, and intense energy ripples scattered continuously as the dual-colored lotus bloomed in response to his command!
Mu You hovered in the center of the lotus, and the wings behind him continuously channeled fresh blood into the flower's core. The gradually materializing lotus appeared as if sculpted by nature, radiating an overbearing and peerless destructive force.
"Found them!" A cold light flashed in Mu You's eyes. Aiming directly at the sensed location, he hurled the blooming lotus forward with all his might!
The terrifying heat instantly reduced everything in its path to ashes, bursting forcefully into an underground skating rink. Amidst the absolute shock of dozens of death row inmates, an apocalyptic red light erupted brilliantly!
"Brother Mu You is here!"
Looking at the scene before her, Xuan Yao shouted with tears streaming down her face.
The Ice Dragon Dominating Heaven Realm shattered abruptly. He Chen, Xu Chen, and the An Ruoxi sisters—who had been continuously supporting the two of them from behind—all breathed sighs of relief. Their faces pale, they stumbled and collapsed into unconsciousness one after another.
Seeing this battle array, how could the Class-S death row inmates dare to care about these surface-dwellers from Building A? They fled in all directions like madmen.
"Thinking of running now? Too late!"
Mu You's eyes gleamed with ghostly light like a lord of the abyss as he stared mercilessly at the ants beneath his feet.
"Die!"
