Fierce Reputation Spreads Far and Wide

Infinite Dimensional Space, East District, Slum Area.

A huge number of Reincarnators had gathered here. Even the usually emptiest zones A through C, with their expensive stalls closest to the Goddess’s Abode,

were now unusually packed with Reincarnators.

What was even more unusual was that the closer one got to where the High-tier Reincarnators were gathered, the grimmer the Reincarnators’ expressions became.

Crimson Lotus Mage · Luo Xi, dressed in a flame-red gown, stood beside a stall in Zone B. Only a few followers remained around her. Everyone knew that Crimson Lotus was on the verge of disbanding, and this Title-level Reincarnator, who had once possessed a measure of influence, had completely fallen from power.

Black Butler appeared in the Slum Area with one hand holding down his hat, immediately drawing considerable attention.

At a time like this, these Information Brokers were doing booming business. Even at several times the usual price, information remained in short supply.

Black Butler entered numerous stalls in succession and conducted transactions with their owners.

The investments and effort he had put in over the years were now paying off. Because Black Butler had a good reputation, many Reincarnators had maintained friendly relations with him after trading with him.

Thus, aside from buying and selling information, Black Butler had also become an intermediary for many people who wanted to contact certain Reincarnators.

Including the newly risen Fierce Person: Mercenary Tao, he possessed extensive connections.

At a time like this, an Information Broker with such a broad network was best suited for finding out what exactly had happened in that world.

"Chaos Sage’s Red Dust has returned!"

Before Black Butler even arrived, someone suddenly shouted in the middle of the Slum Area.

Perhaps it was some Reincarnator unable to restrain his impulse, or perhaps it was news deliberately released by Red Dust or someone else. Luoxi’s expression darkened. At that moment, she felt that everyone around her was looking at her with mockery in their eyes.

What had happened to Crimson Lotus was no secret in the Third Tier. Likewise, her intention to seek revenge was plain for all to see.

Now, although no one knew for certain whom Luoxi had found to act, since Chaos Sage’s man had returned first, Luoxi had most likely failed.

"Luoxi, I think you should go beg His Excellency…"

The stall owner, Mad-level Potter, spoke to Luoxi in a low voice. His explosive afro was highly distinctive, so the other Reincarnators recognized him as well.

"Mad-level Potter, you’d be better off not getting involved with that woman. There are plenty of women in the Space…"

Luoxi grew increasingly irritated.

Previously, as large numbers of Reincarnators died, gatherings throughout the Space had immediately noticed something was wrong. The destruction of one or two teams was still normal, but when teams from numerous gatherings were wiped out at the same time, it became exceedingly bizarre and terrifying.

With several Information Brokers pooling their intelligence and the assistance of prophecy-type and soul-spirit-type abilities, they quickly confirmed that all the destroyed Reincarnator teams had been deployed at the same time.

The world they had entered was most likely the Secondary World whose rumors had been circulating earlier.

At stall A-28, a girl in a white cloak and a white fox mask leaned against the stall. She tapped her fingers against the tabletop, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

"Relax, White Face. That Sage fellow might not be particularly strong in combat, but killing him is no simple matter. Even the Plot Characters of that world would have to spend some effort on it."

The man in the white suit sat in the stall owner’s seat with his hands behind his head. He found everyone’s alarm amusing.

He was even more delighted that His Excellency’s plan had proceeded "smoothly."

Deliberately releasing news of that Secondary World to lure large numbers of elite Reincarnators inside to be hunted was one part of their plan.

He just had not expected His Excellency and the Sage to proceed so smoothly. He had never seen Reincarnators die on such a scale before.

White Face sneered. She did not care in the slightest whether the Sage lived or died. Her unease stemmed from another level. Because she possessed the power of cards, she had a mysterious perception of Destiny.

The irritation rising from the depths of her heart at this moment was clearly an ill omen.

Buzz—

A figure directly teleported in front of the stalls in Zone A.

At stall C-07, Snow Witch immediately spotted Tree Herder, a member of her gathering. She frowned, unable to understand why Tree Herder had not returned to the gathering or come to her, but had instead appeared there.

Feeling the gazes around him instantly focus on him, Tree Herder fell silent for a moment before speaking.

"An anomaly occurred in Secondary World B711. Supreme Expert Eternal Destiny… has fallen."

As soon as those words came out, the noisy Slum Area fell silent for a moment. Then an explosive wave of sound erupted.

Cries of shock, demands for answers, questions, and even loud laughter—every kind of frantic, terrified, and excited emotion instantly filled the East District of the Reincarnation Space.

The Information Brokers nearly instantly surrounded Tree Herder, wanting to confirm the details.

But White Face appeared even faster.

"Show us proof, Tree Herder. If you dare spread nonsense like this, we won’t treat it as a joke!"

Tree Herder calmly looked at White Face, the holder of cards who would likely become a powerful Title Reincarnator by the next cycle.

Yet at this moment, his gaze was mocking, even pitying.

"Find another Avatar. From now on, tuck your tail between your legs and survive, White Face. His Excellency, Chaos Sage’s entire group aside from Red Dust, Tang Sanzang… all of them are dead."

"And Mercenary Tao, the one you made an enemy of, is alive."

After delivering his information, Tree Herder ignored the Information Brokers and Snow Witch alike, directly teleporting away from the Slum Area.

Then more news emerged from elsewhere.

Some said that Red Dust had confirmed the news of Chaos Sage’s group being wiped out. The renowned Title-level Reincarnator, Sage, had most likely been killed in reverse by the newly risen Fierce Person: Mercenary Tao in Secondary World B711.

At the same time, the truth about that world was gradually reconstructed.

Supreme Expert Eternal Destiny had used some sort of item to forcibly enter the Secondary World, ultimately causing the Plot Character Saitama to undergo an anomaly and blast to death the vast majority of experts, including the Supreme Expert.

Meanwhile, Mercenary Tao’s name grew even more unfathomable alongside another terrifying bloody incident.

Rumor had it that Mercenary Tao had personally crushed Blackwater, a famous mercenary Reincarnator team of the East District, and ended Millennium Worm, Blackwater’s immortal captain.

Afterward, the mysterious Heart Demon returned with even more news. Heart Demon claimed that he had joined forces with Mercenary Tao to enter Secondary World B711 and hunt Tang Sanzang, a follower of Great Sun of Finality, ultimately succeeding in bringing about his death.

All kinds of news, both true and false, began spreading wildly through the Space.

The rumors reached their peak when that iconic pink robe appeared once more at a stall in the Slum Area.

Bai Cangshu looked at his stall, packed so tightly it was impossible to squeeze through, and revealed a much more peaceful-looking smile.

"Everyone, I have some good things to sell you."

"Ajin Bloodline Items, Sage’s Drop Card. Who’s interested?"
