Chapter 2416: Demon God’s Formation

"Uh... I’m not sure...?" Purple responded to Yuan’s question about the Supreme Ruler’s whereabouts.

Suddenly, Yuan noticed a figure emerging from the tower and quickly approaching them.

"Are you the Supreme Ruler?" Yuan asked the human-looking demon hovering before them.

"Not even close," he responded. "I am the Supreme Adviser, second in power within the Crimson Continent."

"Then where is the Supreme Ruler?" Yuan asked.

"The Supreme Ruler will appear soon, but first..." The Supreme Adviser turned his gaze to Supreme Ruler Dena and continued speaking, "Why did you leave the Deprived Crimson Valley and return here? Have you forgotten about the indescribable crime you’ve committed against the people here? If I were you, I’d be too ashamed to show my face here again."

"There is no place besides the Deprived Crimson Valley that welcomes a Forsaken, especially one as heinous as you!"

Despite the Supreme Adviser’s harsh words, Supreme Ruler Dena’s expression remained as calm as a still pond.

"How does one forget something they have no recollection of in the very beginning?" she spoke a moment later.

"What...?" The Supreme Adviser frowned.

"As for me being a Forsaken... I have no clue where you got such information, but that’s nothing more than slander," she continued before the Supreme Adviser could say anything else.

"Are you claiming to be innocent despite the overwhelming evidence against you? Do you really expect me—expect anyone to believe that?" The Supreme Adviser responded with a deep frown, looking like he’d been mocked.

"Whether you believe me or not is none of my concern," Supreme Ruler Dena calmly said. "I am just here to reclaim my position."

"Reclaim your position?! And how are you going to do that? With force, like you usually do?!" The Supreme Adviser shouted, his face and voice full of anger. "Even if you force your way back into being the Supreme Ruler again, nobody would trust you!"

"I couldn’t care less if nobody trusts me. Even if everyone hates me, as long as they do their job properly—"

"Alright, let’s stop there." Yuan interrupted her.

He then turned to the Supreme Adviser. "You claim there’s overwhelming evidence she’s responsible for this city’s disappearance, but from what I’ve heard, your so‑called proof is flimsy at best and proves nothing."

"..."

The Supreme Adviser frowned at Yuan in confusion.

"I should have asked this sooner, but who in the hell are you? Are you the one responsible for the deaths of our two soldiers?" he asked after a brief silence.

"You make it sound like I personally killed them," Yuan sighed while shaking his head. "They were the ones who invoked Demon God’s Wrath."

"That’s not what I heard from those who were present."

"I don’t know what those idiots told you, but they definitely lied."

"Lie? To me? There’s no way."

"You’re a bit too trusting—borderline gullible. No wonder you were so quick to believe those false accusations against Dena," Yuan said.
