One-Eyed Monster

Kuyi Tulan continued to smile rampantly, as if the whole world was under his feet.

The impostor King Kayne felt extremely shocked at this moment. He had occupied the body of King Kayne for some time, but he still couldn’t completely control it, needing the spirit core for support. He was aware of his own disadvantages.

Initially, Kuyi Tulan was just a pawn.

But now, it seems everything has changed.

”I want to thank you all.” Kuyi Tulan rubbed his hands, with a mysterious expression on his face.

The current Kuyi Tulan was completely a different person. He emanated a strong aura that was very aggressive, like a sense of plunder.

This plunder was very assertive, and this assertiveness had always been Kuyi Tulan’s style.

”You opened the door for me, allowing me to instantly understand the things that puzzled me.”

The impostor King Kayne remained silent; this was something they hadn’t foreseen. Kuyi Tulan wasn’t originally part of their plan; he appeared like a sudden bolt of thunder.

The Soul Devourer army was discreetly distributed all over the world for a plan.

Due to the singular dimensional channels, they could only sporadically arrive in this world.

Guru Mountain not only hid devouring power but also the power to open channels.

The destruction of the Border Realm was unexpected for them because they did not intend to expose themselves here so soon.

Kuyi Tulan was initially a pawn used against Guru Mountain, no matter how you looked at it, that pawn had played a big role at the time. It could be said that under their guidance, Kuyi Tulan explored Guru Mountain and successfully placed Reed on Guru Mountain. The commotion they caused gave Willem an opportunity to find the scroll and open the so-called power transcending life and death.

That scroll was just a cover; their true aim was to awaken the devouring power.

The power transcending life and death was just to confuse people and wouldn’t significantly help their conquest plan.

However, they hadn’t anticipated Kuyi Tulan appearing out of nowhere.

It has to be said that Kuyi Tulan was strong, but not so invincible that he couldn’t be defeated. There were many in the Soul Devourer army capable of defeating Kuyi Tulan, but unfortunately, this Alchemy Workshop leader succeeded in defeating Black Crow.

The downfall of Black Crow brought Kuyi Tulan to their presence.

Replacing Black Crow with the Alchemy Workshop was put on their agenda.

So, Willem candidly shared some things with Kuyi Tulan.

This candor was indeed effective; it caused strong powerhouses like Kuyi Tulan to join them.

The Alchemy Workshop became their puppet, and this puppet provided a chance to conquer the entire Empire.

It could be said that Kuyi Tulan’s joining was a big gain for them, and Kuyi Tulan surprisingly mastered a skill for refining spirit cores, which was truly remarkable.

Everything seemed to be progressing smoothly; they occupied the entire Kayne Palace as if it were a game.

Kuyi Tulan played a significant role in this.

King Kayne wasn’t easily conquered, but Kuyi Tulan’s spirit core attracted the king, allowing them to seize the opportunity to occupy the king’s body.

The opportunity came only once, and they didn’t waste this hard-earned chance.

When King Kayne curiously tried to touch the spirit core, they seized the opportunity to invade the body.

He is considered the best body controller in the Soul Devourer army, but even he struggled against King Kayne’s body.

He frequently needed the spirit core to replenish his energy; otherwise, he couldn’t suppress the king’s resistance.

The Alchemy Workshop led by Kuyi Tulan now had a very stable output of spirit cores. He wasn’t sure what method Kuyi Tulan used, but such a stable spirit core output made them hopeful about the future.

This also led to growing trust in Kuyi Tulan.

However, what did this trust bring?

Perhaps they were overconfident, thinking their power could control everything, believing Kuyi Tulan posed no real threat, and wasn’t worth worrying about.

Too much confidence perhaps equated to arrogance.

Kuyi Tulan, who inserted himself out of nowhere, was not a lamb led to slaughter and seemed very adept at concealing his true intentions.

Now, he finally revealed his tail.

This guy was rebellious, he intended to rise against them.

One only wishes Willem had realized this sooner and devoured this guy.

Keeping him around was a disaster, an unpredictable factor...

This was what worried the impostor King Kayne; he thought it was a matter that needed attention. They couldn’t let Kuyi Tulan disrupt their plans recklessly.

But he couldn’t leave the palace now, nor could he contact Willem. He could only pray Willem would discover this threat on his own.

”Your silence shows your wisdom. I imagine you think my current arrogance is due to becoming overinflated, right?”

The impostor King Kayne remained silent, knowing doing anything now wouldn’t stop the disgusting grin on Kuyi Tulan’s face.

He really wanted to escape from King Kayne’s body now and enter Kuyi Tulan’s body to teach him a lesson.

But reason told him not to do so; if he did, he would lose control of King Kayne. Losing control at this time would allow King Kayne to return, and he could never invade the king’s body again.

He knew King Kayne’s power, even as a soul devourer expert, couldn’t fully suppress it. Releasing the king’s will would only make it stronger, stronger to a point where no one could invade again.

So, he could only endure Kuyi Tulan’s expression now, hoping one day to turn this pawn back into a mere pawn!

Kuyi Tulan felt he had spent enough time in the king’s reading room. His main purpose was to acquire those Spirit Books; having achieved that, he should leave.

But he couldn’t resist mocking the impostor King Kayne in front of him.

”I forgot to tell you, from now on, everything will be decided by me.” Kuyi Tulan’s mouth curled in disdain.

This sentence landed heavily on the impostor King Kayne’s heart; he stared at Kuyi Tulan in shock, his face expressing disbelief, like overflowing beer foam...

”You must be curious about where Willem and the others went, right?”

Kuyi Tulan, in his arrogance, rubbed his temples and calmly looked at this soul devourer in a display of power that was indeed unusual.

”Willem has been eliminated by me; he wanted to occupy my body, but unfortunately, he was too weak!”

Impossible! This couldn’t be true! The impostor King Kayne’s heart rolled with turmoil, as if he saw a devil.
