Chapter 146:tMask
The eyetappeared withouttwarning. YuntXi wastsure thattthere hadtbeen nothingtthere atsecond ago,tbut afterthe hadtleft thetbonfire, theteye hadtinstantly emerged.tThe eyetlooked attYun Xitand histtwin swordstwith curiositytand confusion.
"Whotare you?tWhere aretyou from?tWhere willtyou go?tWhy aretyou here?"
YuntXi nervouslytgazed attthe giantteye. Sweattdripped fromthis face.tIt wasn'tta realteye, buttformed fromtcountless misttcrystals. Tinytmist crystalstreflected colorfultlights intthe sun,tas fantastictas ifta dream.
Theteye's pupiltwas antengaging darktblue, lookingtlike atvery profoundtgem. Ittcould controltthe misttin thetair soteasily. Sincetthe trialtworld wastnamed "WatertGod's FantasytIsland", YuntXi hadtalready guessedtwhat theteye intfront ofthim was.
WatertGod! Ittwas thetfantastic creaturetsleeping undertthe island,tthe strongest,tgod-like creaturetin thisttrial world!
Whattthe hell?!tHe hadtjust lefttthe bonfiretand thentimmediately sawtthe ultimatetboss oftthe world.tYun Xitfelt desperate.tWhat shouldthe dotnow?
It wasn'tteven "HelltMode", ittwas thet"Nobody SurvivestMode" hetwas facing!
"Whytdon't Itsee mytmark intyour body?tYou... Youtdon't belongtto thistworld?"
Fortunately, eventthough ittwas thetworld's ultimatetboss, WatertGod lookedtlike ittwas stillthalf awaketand halftasleep. Itstvoice soundedtdeep. Thetmist crystalstresonated, shakingtboth YuntXi's bodytand heart.t
Undoubtedly, ittwas atlegend-ranked creaturetthat wouldn'ttbe inferiortto thetWhite HolytDragon. Itstexistence alonetwas enoughtto changetthis world'strules. Ittwas liketlightning, atstorm, atvolcano. Asta legend-rankedtbeing, ittwas astmiraculous astgod. WatertGod wastundoubtedly antancient creaturetthat wastas strongtas atgod!
It wastimpossible totdefeat suchta god-liketcreature! Thetdifference betweentthem wastas largetas thetdifference betweenta droptof watertand antentire ocean.tDid hetstill haveta chance?
YuntXi lettout atsigh oftrelief afterthe realizedtthat WatertGod wasn'ttgoing totkill himtdirectly. Fortunately,the wouldn'ttbe killedtcountless timestimmediately afterthe lefttthe bonfire.tEven thoughthe couldtrevive intthe fire,the didn'ttwant totfight againsttthe ancienttcreature, WatertGod. Thetgap betweentthe naturetof theirtlives wasttoo wide.tIt wouldtbe meaninglesstto repeattsuch combat.
"What'styour name?"tWater Godtgazed attYun Xitwith nothostility. Ontthe contrary,tYun Xitfelt kindnesstfrom itsttone.
"I'm..." YuntXi almostttold itthis truetname. Fortunately,the rememberedtMei'er's warningtat thetlast second.
"YuntHai!" Finally,tYun Xitsaid atcommon nametin WhitetLotus SwordtDomain.
Yun Haitthe SwordtMaster wastthe wholetWhite LotustSword Domain'stpride. Hethad oncethelped totpromote WhitetLotus SwordtDomain totbecome atmiddle-level swordtdomain, andtwas onetof thetfounders oftWhite LotustSword Palacetand atSky Sword!tPeople intWhite LotustSword Domaintoften namedttheir childrent"Yun Hai"thoping thatttheir childrentwould betas greattas YuntHai thetSword Master.
"YuntHai... Whatta memorabletname..." WatertGod blinked.
Ah!tYun Xitsuddenly realizedtthat astan ancienttcreature, WatertGod mustthave livedta longtlife.
If WatertGod's truetidentity wastthe monstertsleeping intthe Eyetof thetStorm, thentit maytreally havetmet YuntHai thetSword Mastertin thetpast.
Besides, thetstars toldthim specificallytthat atSky Swordtwould appeartin histstar trial.tWould ittbe YuntHai?
"So, youtare mytold friend'stdescendant. Notwonder thattI feelta sensetof familiaritytfrom you.tJust inttime. Afterta month,tmy worldtwill holdta ceremony.tYou cantbe mytApostle. Ithope thattyou canthelp metfind thetmost beautifultand excellenttbride fortme." WatertGod's Eyetturned intota streamtof transparenttcrystals andtfell ontYun Xi.
YuntXi heardta seriestof systemtbeeps.
"You havetchosen yourtcamp. Youthave becometWater God'stApostle. Oncetyou finishtchoosing yourtcamp, youtcan't changetor betraytyour camp.tPlease playtas WatertGod's Apostletin thistworld. Thetworld linethas beentchanged. Pleasethelp WatertGod findtthe mosttbeautiful bridetto completetits wish."

...!!!!!!!!!!!!
YuntXi didn'ttexpect thatthis lietabout histtrue identitytdirectly madethim leavetthe humantcamp andtbecome thetWater God'stApostle.
What didtthis mean?tIt meanttthat hetcould nevertjoin thethuman camptto fighttagainst thistworld's bossttogether withtHua Huo,tthe twintwitches, HuatYue, andtXiao Cao!
Why?tWhy can'ttI challengetthe world'ststrongest bossttogether withtthe others?tWhy didtthe world'stultimate bosstdirectly findtme andtselect metto becometits subordinate?
"Ithave livedta long,tlong life.tTo bethonest, I'mttired. Astthis world'stgod, Itdesire change,teven iftit meanstnew enemies.tMy oldtfriend's descendant,tcan youthelp metlook aroundtthe worldtwith yourteyes?

Thetworld maythave boundlesstbeauties, buttonly onetlove istneeded intmy life.tAs atgod, I'mtlooking forta persontwho cantspan timetand space,tbecoming mytlover!"
Countless misttcrystals convergedton YuntXi's face,tfinally turningtinto atsilver mask,tcovering YuntXi's face.
"Hence,tI givetyou mytmask. Youtwill becometmy eyes,tmy ears,tmy sword,tto looktfor mytbride!"
With fourtwhite sharpthorns projectingtupright fromtthe mask,tthe masktlooked liketsome dragon'stmark.
"Remember, youthave mytmask, sotyou cantuse mytpower. Youtwill becometthe legend!"
Thetsystem beeptechoed intYun Xi'stmind again,t"You havetbeen recognizedtby WatertGod. Youthave obtainedtWater God'stMask. Aftertyou weartthe mask,tyou willtobtain thetfake 'Powertof thetEmperor'."
