Chapter 1406: Kill Him Now.

The lower realm fell into a strange silence and peace once again. No one was fighting, and no worlds were being destroyed.

However, Thief’s Haven was nowhere near peaceful. Specifically, the divine constellation was in an uproar. As the only place where every Dao Lord in the alliance could meet, anything major that happened in the Sea of Worlds was bound to create a lot of waves here.

On the surface, the divine constellation was calm. But Loki was sure it was a lie. He was also sure he couldn’t see anything because he wasn’t part of the turmoil.

And what a big turmoil it was. It started with someone shouting.

"We have to attack him and destroy him immediately," Heavenly Eye said, shouting at the top of her lungs.

Clearly, this was an important matter, but Martial Will didn’t take it seriously. Instead, he sneered and said, "Weren’t you one of the people who said earlier that we couldn’t use brute force?"

"Did you say we had to be smart about it? Didn’t you say our move had to be sophisticated and impossible to anticipate?"

"And weren’t you certain that we should only make a move when we’re ready to kill him with one move? So what’s with all this rashness?"

"It is beneath you, if you ask me," he said, disdainful.

"Shut your mouth," Heavenly Eye said, roaring at him. "You don’t know anything."

"Ragnarok knows too much. The longer we wait, the more he can use that information against us and the more dangerous he will become."

In response, Martial Will nodded and said, "All I hear is that I was right and you were wrong."

"I know it was difficult to admit your mistake, so I appreciate you baring your soul to me. I promise not to make you feel too bad that you did it."

Tepid Scholar also chuckled and said, "Don’t mind her."

"She is just salty that Ragnarok raided her hidden stash, and the best thing she could do was tell us where she hid them so that we can take them before him. It must be killing her to know that her life’s savings have fallen into our hands."

Seeing that no one would side with her, she turned to Wandering Thief and asked, "You agree with me, right?"

Before Wandering Thief could speak, Black Chain smiled and said to him, "That trap wasn’t bad, though. Don’t you think so?"

Then he clicked his tongue before saying reproachfully, "I already said those super worlds couldn’t be trusted since they made that deal with Ragnarok. I also said that we can’t trust them to do anything until we can force them to do our bidding, just like Ragnarok did."

"Unfortunately, you didn’t listen to me. You said that there was no harm in trying. You said you would be in and out in the blink of an eye with nothing happening."

"So I don’t blame you for falling into his trap. No one could have seen it coming," he finished sarcastically.

Wandering Thief ignored the gloater and said to Wandering Thief, "We can’t attack him now. We must keep to the plan. A few losses are not enough reason to throw our schedule into shambles."

"Forget the plan," Heavenly Eye insisted. "Let’s help Thief’s Haven ascend as soon as possible."

"With a Divine Mountain of our own, we can use Authority for our attacks, remove our burden of Entropy, and we will have a Mountain Lord who can confront Ragnarok without suppression."

But Sword Way asked, "What if Ragnarok interferes with the ascension?"

Heavenly Eye’s eyes lit up when she heard Sword Way. She replied gleefully, "Even better. Let him come and let’s show him what we have planned for him."

"That’s putting the cart before the horse," Wandering Thief interjected, shaking his head.

"We have a schedule, and we will stick with it. The time will come for Thief’s Haven to ascend. Before then, we still need it."

"Screw your plan," Heavenly Eye said, shouting at him.

"Your great plan hasn’t worked so far. Ragnarok has refused to step into Thief’s Haven for so long. Clearly, he knows there is a trap here."

At this point, Tepid Scholar decided he couldn’t continue watching this atrocity without doing anything. He spoke up immediately, saying, "The fact that it hasn’t worked doesn’t mean it won’t work."

"We just need to keep increasing the bait’s value. When the bait is sufficient and irresistible, he will fall into our grasp."

On a rare occasion, Black Chain also spoke up for Wandering Thief, saying, "The thief is actually right."

"With his plan, we can have our cake and eat it. His plan covers many possibilities and outcomes. But if we go along with what you said, we will be giving up a lot of chances to take him down."

In response, Heavenly Eye said, "Fuck you."

Then she turned to everyone else and said, "Fuck all of you "

After cursing them to vent her anger, she calmed down a bit and said, "So anyway, when are you going to return my celestial gold and artifacts?"

Everyone immediately looked away. They acted as if they hadn’t heard anything she said.

She couldn’t force them to return what they took anyway. Their oath also didn’t require them to return whatever they looted.

So she could only look around and sneer as she said, "Is this how you’re all going to behave?"

Instead of answering, Carefree Immortal asked Wandering Thief, "So what is the next part of the plan?"

Wandering Thief immediately seized the chance to change the subject and said, "We need to clear the air first."

"It could be considered a coincidence that Ragnarok found out about my Freedom Supreme Metac. You should know what he did with it."

"Now he has struck us again with a secret no one else should know. My first point is that he fact that Ragnarok found her hidden worlds and celestial gold means we can’t trust that our secrets are safe."
