Chapter 313: Space Monster

"And then there was darkness."

Above the core of the world, a holographic screen displayed the scene as Tianling wielded the immortal treasure to blanket the entire world in darkness.

Xiang Yu spread his divine sense outward. Indeed, it was growing dark. In just a few seconds, the light had dimmed considerably.

He sighed. Problems always had a way of finding him no matter what. Now the world was suddenly coming to an end.

He stretched out his hand, and a small orb of light materialized in his palm. With a casual wave, he sent the light ball away. It passed through the barrier around the cave and emerged above the Azure Cloud Sect. There it hovered, casting a subtle glow over the sect grounds like a miniature sun.

He nodded to himself, satisfied. This should keep the disciples from panicking, at least for a while, before someone could explain what was happening.

Turning his attention back to the world core, Xiang Yu found Li Yao standing with her hand to her sword, ready to draw.

"Dammit, I knew that woman was up to no good," Li Yao muttered.

"I should’ve killed her when I had the chance." She shook her head and pressed her free hand to her forehead. "What was I thinking?"

She reached down to her waist and drew her sword.

"I see how it is now," she said.

Xiang Yu slowly nodded his head. It seemed she was resolved to fight for the world, as expected of the main character.

"I must kill all women," Li Yao declared. "They’re too dangerous."

"Wait, what? Where did you even get that idea from?" Xiang Yu spoke up, quickly grabbing onto her waist before she could storm off.

As he grabbed her, the world core finally turned its attention to him and suddenly jumped back, trembling violently.

<Waaaa, a space monster!> the core screamed out in terror as it backed away.

"A what now?" Xiang Yu asked, blinking in bewilderment.

He loosened his grip on Li Yao, who had calmed down and was now taking advantage of the situation to snuggle closer against him.

The world core scrambled behind a nearby crystal formation, peeking out from around the corner with frightened eyes.

<Please don’t eat me! I’m just a low-level world! I barely have any meat on me!> it pleaded desperately before breaking into loud, hiccupping sobs.

<Waaa, how could my luck be so terrible? First the darkness lady, now a space monster wants to devour me!>

"Calm down, I’m not a space monster," Xiang Yu spoke reassuringly. But the world core wasn’t listening to him at all and kept sobbing hysterically.

He frowned, wondering what kind of space monster it was referring to. Was it sensing his Void Flame soul?

Now that he thought about it, looking directly at the world core did stir something deep within him. He wondered if his species also fed on worlds. He quickly dismissed those thoughts and tried again to get the core to settle down.

"Just listen to me for a moment," he said, but the core still wasn’t paying attention. It kept crying loudly about how it had terrible RNG.

Xiang Yu’s eye twitched in irritation. What was wrong with this thing? It was really beginning to get under his nerves with all this crying every two seconds.

"Just calm down and explain what’s happening!" he spoke more loudly, but the world core continued its hysterical sobbing.

Xiang Yu’s form shifted and transformed into his monster state. "Calm down right this instant or I’ll really have you for dinner!"

The moment those words left his mouth, the small world core immediately stopped crying. It covered its mouth with its tiny hands, staring at him with terrified eyes.
