âConsort, the Haoying Clan will be arriving soon, how should we survive this?â Feng Wuji asked.
âAbout this, we will have to use your teacherâs name.â Consort Tian Si stood unmovingly, she stopped the calculations and smiled, âWhen the Haoying Clan knows who your teacher is, they will naturally let us live. As for why we are here in their Hill of Monarchsâ Burial, thatâs because Fu Baochu forcibly brought us here. He kidnapped us, slaughtered the innocents, and forced us to comply with his unreasonable demands.â
Feng Wujiâs eyelids thumped, if he really did say so, would the State of Fuxi still allow him to enter their unworldly land and awaken his sealed Fuxi bloodline?
âItâs too late to leave now. If Mister Wuji has any better plans, do speak up.â Consort Tian Si smiled lovingly.
Feng Wujiâs face turned a little gloomy, he really doesnât have any other better plans, bringing his teacher Tu Yuâs name seemed to be their only way out now.
This lady is sly and cunning, she is not any inferior to the Zhong Shan Clan little child, Iâve underestimated her.
Feng Wuji looked up at the surging clouds. The Haoying Creators and an Imperial Emperor had descended upon the mausoleum and he quickly shouted, âGreetings to the seniors of the Haoying Clan, I am Junior Xiao Wuji, disciple of the innate god Tu Yu. A scoundrel has snatched us here, I plead the Haoying seniors to save us out!â
Innate god Tu Yu? The Haoying Imperial Emperor was surprised, he said placidly, âWait awhile.â
Then, the Imperial Emperor ordered, âPlease awaken Great Monarch Hao Ying.â
The Creators bowed toward the mausoleum and worshipped, then, a black and blue huge hand was stretched out of the deepest part of the mausoleum. It was stretched into the slaughtering array that Fu Baochu was trapped in as if it were a piece of paper.
Fu Baochu was fighting against the slaughtering arrayâs power when suddenly, a huge hand has clenched on his head with three of its fingers pierced through his three eyes and the rest of the two fingers in his ears. The huge hand lift him up from the ground in that posture and brought him back into the deeper mausoleum.
Sounds of gorging could be heard concomitant with Fu Baochuâs cries of pain and terror. When the sound was no more, so was Fu Baochuâs voice.
Feng Wuji and Consort Tian Si were both shocked, they exchanged a look and saw the same fear in each otherâs eyes.
One of the ancient great presences, Fu Baochu, was just eaten away just like that. This Fuxi was not a simple man, he took part in the great war of the Earth Order Era and was in the peak stage of the cultivation level of Imperial Emperor.
He has lived from the ancient days and seen the changes of time, although aged, he was still a powerful figure to deal with. Yet, he was eaten away just like a little prawn.
The Haoying Imperial Emperor ordered men to enter the mausoleum and bring out the two survivors. The Imperial Emperor smiled frigidly, âThe Haoying Clan is no idiot, we know everything you have done. Remember, itâs your teacher Tu Yu that saved you a life today, else, youâd both die as your friend there. The murderer is now dead and you two should leave at once.â
Feng Wuji quickly bowed and thanked, âThank you senior, thank you. To be frank, we didnât want this to happen, but weâve been set up by the Xian Tian Palaceâs Mister Yi. He has intentionally lured us here and provoked the battle by setting up my Kuafu subordinate to kill the Zheng Raceâs young master. We want no part in this but the setup hasâ¦â
âMister Yi of the Xian Tian Palace?â Suddenly, weird expressions crawled up on the Creatorsâ faces and they looked at one another. Feng Wuji was puzzled by their reactions and the Haoying Clanâs Imperial Emperor smirked, he said in a cold voice, âKing Yi has been in the Haoying Clan for days now, how would I not know if he has walked out of our clan? Let alone setting you up?â
Feng Wuji was stunned, he exclaimed in shock, âHe was just hereâ¦â
The Haoying Imperial Emperor waved his hand and frowned in detestation as he said, âHow disgusting that you still try to frame King Yi for your own evildoings. If you werenât Tu Yuâs disciple and if it wasnât because of him, I wouldâve beheaded you right away. Now, get lost!â
Feng Wuji was bewildered, he still couldnât come to understand what was going on; on the other hand, the shocked expression on Consort Tian Siâs face has shown her clear solitude for the situation.
âThe Zhong Shan Clan member has been in the Haoying Clan visiting? How is that possible?â Feng Wujiâs mind was in confusion as he muttered, âHow did he⦠Oh yes, the incarnations. No wonder he didnât take things a step further after than triggering the array formations of the mausoleum. His incarnation is not strong in power and after creating the many incarnations out of his incarnation, he is already at his limit. No wonder he left us be!â
Consort Tian Si sighed, âXian Tian Palaceâs Mister Yi has calculated two steps ahead of me. I never once thought that in just a few years time, he would reach this stage. What a terrifying individual.â
She couldnât help but shiver. The first step Zhong Yue had taken ahead of her was when he visited the Haoying Clan days before while allowing Consort Tian Si to calculate the movements of his incarnation. What Consort Tian Si thought was him was actually just his incarnation that lured them into the trap.
Whereas the second step was after the death of the Zheng Raceâs grand ancestor in Fu Baochuâs hands, the reaction speed of the Haoying Clan was unreasonably quick, the monarch weapon was brought up as soon as Fu Baochu killed the Zheng Race grand ancestor and it eventually forced them into the mausoleum. Zhong Yue mustâve been playing an important role behind the Haoaying Clanâs speedy reactions!
This was the most terrifying part that she feared the most. Two steps ahead of her and he took Fu Baochuâs life as easily as a snap his fingers!
âMister Wuji, a word of advice,â Consort Tian Si suddenly said, âNo matter what dispute you had with Mister Yi in the past, you wonât be his match. If he wants you dead, he doesnât even have to do it on his own. From now on, donât think too much about doing anything to him or youâll be dead before you know it. Even I have to turn around and avoid confronting him as much as possible!â
Feng Wujiâs eyelids thumped. He would have to admit his mission to capture Zhong Yue was a total failure. The two Kuafu Deity Emperors were both killed, Feng Qingyuâs whereabouts unknown, and even the ancient great presence like Fu Baochu was also dead. This was a huge blow to an arrogant man like him!
âI am wrong.â Feng Wuji regained his composure, he said, âI still view him as the old him, he had grown far too much. From now on, I will not look down on him anymore and one day, he will surely die in my hands!â
Consort Tian Si couldnât help but notice his obstinance, and she couldnât help but look down on him. Suddenly, she chortled coquettishly on his face, âMister Wuji, where are you from?â
Feng Wuji immediately turned vigilant, he shook his head and left without answering.
Leaving Consort Tian Si whose eyes were seen flashing with rays as she thought, If Mister Yi is really a reincarnated innate god, of what qualifications does this Xiao Wuji has to go against an innate god? That said, Mister Yi may not be a reincarnated innate god as he claims, but a human who has had part of his Fuxi bloodline unsealed?
This conjecture stirred her heart, but her mind rejected it soon after, No, quite impossible. No human can cultivate and reach that kind of level, right?
As a human leader, she knew a thing or two about the history behind the human raceâs true origin, but that thought was a little seed that had already taken root deep inside her heart.
If he is really a human, then Yan Sovereign⦠Her eyes brightened up and her heart thumped uncontrollably in joy.
â¦
In the Haoying Clanâs sacred land, Zhong Yue had been staying here for a few days and today, he planned to leave.
He stood up and smiled, âImperial Emperor Yuan Zhou, I am sorry for disturbing your time these few days. I think it is time for me to leave.â
The Haoying Clanâs Imperial Emperor Yuan Zhou stood up and sent Zhong Yue out of the sacred land, he also smiled, âKing Yi, you are acting overly polite, I donât even mind accommodating you for another few more days. Do come and visit again.â
âThere are some matters I have yet to settle, I donât dare to stay too long.â Zhong Yue left the Haoying Clan and traveled tens of days to the Huaxu Clan.
When he reached the Huaxu border, his heart started thumping heavily as he couldnât stop thinking, Senior Martial Sister Jun and Junior Martial Sister Jinâer are cultivating beside Goddess Shen Hou. Years have passed and I wonder how are they nowâ¦
He entered the Huaxu Clanâs territory and looked around to that the Huaxu Clanâs sacred land was unlike any other. It was a small yet ancient cosmos on its own, there was still the Chaos Qi that brimmed within. In the midst of the Chaos Qi, there was a golden continent, orbited by the sun, moon, and stars that were also golden in color. The whole sacred land was filled with the colors of gold.
The Huaxu Clanâs sacred land was filled with mountains and stunning views. Zhong Yue felt a strange Dao flowing in this place, it was one of the many innate Daos, the Innate Saint Dao.
The stars, the land, the trees, and the flowers, everything here was formed by the Innate Dao and existed solely because of the Innate Dao. This was the same as the Leizhe Clanâs Ancient Lei Zhe Realm.
This should be part of the ancient universe moved to the Zi Wei by the Huaxu Clanâs great powers.
The Huaxu was also one of Fuxiâs ancestors. When Zhong Yue was in here, he could feel the saintly air that emanated out of it, making him take on the same solemn quality himself over time.
But I wonder if the Huaxu Clan is just like the Leizhe Clan, are they penetrated by the ancient great presences too? If thatâs the case, the real Huaxu clansmen will most probably suffer big time as well.
The establishment of the Six Paths Reincarnations had brought its benefits and drawbacks. Now, in this universe, a race of pureblooded clansmen was the rarest sight. One must know that even the punniest human race was no exception to the pollution and corruption of the other races. The few disciples of Imperial Emperor Xian Tian that had reincarnated into the human race were prime examples of this.
As one of the oldest and most archaic periods until now, Huaxu Clan was one of the mightest races to have ever existed, it was no surprise it had been infiltrated by many other races.
Zhong Yue arrived at the Hauxuâs ancient city and just as he was searching for a Huaxu disciple to look for Goddess Shen Hou, a sweet and crisp voice said from the side, âAre you Mister Yi, Yi Feng?â
Zhong Yue startled and saw a lady wearing in plain and simple clothes walking toward him. She was the Huaxu Hua Qianwen who Zhong Yue has met before in the Human Sovereign Palace.
She was pretty and cute, but had a daring quality at the same time. Back then, after she passed the Dao Imparting Innate Core to Zhong Yue, she wiped away her own memories of meeting him before leaving.
Now, it was clear that Hua Qianwen didnât recognize Zhong Yue, not knowing that they had met before.
âGoddess knew that Mister Yi would come, and so she had me wait for you here. Please, Mister, follow me.â Hua Qianwen led the way on the front while she said smilingly, âMister Yi, this is the first time you are here, yes? We have many many fun and entertaining places here! If youâve got time, I can give you a tour. The outside world is fun too, but Goddess forbids me from going out. I hear youâre married, is your wife Sister Yin Fanxuan? Iâve met her before. Can you even beat her? I think not, even I could only fight to a draw against her. How did the two of you meet? Did youâ¦â
The ladyâs voice was soft and gentle, it was also sweet and kind, but much of that charm was eroded by her excessive loquaciousness. Questions were shot out like a barrage of arrows into Zhong Yueâs mind.
Upon hearing her words, Zhong Yue suddenly exclaimed in shock, âSo you are the Huaxu lady that fought with Fanxuan to a draw? Draw? Do you know you are the only one whoâs achieved that?â
âWell, the next Nuwa will have to train themselves!â Hua Qianwen chortled, âI heard Sister Fanxuan is the best so I challenged her, but I didnât win so I came back to cultivate again. Goddess said the Nuwa should always be the best of her era, but I still canât defeat Sister Yinxuan. Oh yes, you didnât tell me yet if you can defeat her.â
âNo!â Zhong Yue humphed and answered.
Hua Qianwen opened her eyes wide and stared at him, then she laughed, âDonât be angry, I can help you defeat her next time. Wait, this wonât be too nice, later you two husband and wife come and fight me, I canât defeat the two of you together⦠You wouldnât help your wife, right?â
Zhong Yue sighed and thought, Where is Goddess Shen Hou? Why is time passing so slow today?
