Divine Brilliance Chapter 774 - Situation Settled

Chapter 774: Situation Settled

“Nine Glory Cycle of Reincarnation Tribulation has ended, the Xuanwu Saint Beast has died. It seems like there are no more problems for this Blood Sword Monster Lord!”

Su Xiaoxiao had a complicated expression, “It seems like it is time for me to leave…”

s.h.i.+yue didn’t have many thoughts about the matter, he just said impa.s.sively, “Fairy, leave safely!”

He didn’t have much of a deep relations.h.i.+p with this demon lady and knew that although she wanted to get close to him, he wasn’t going to allow it.

He was already in charge of a region. In the future, he would take over the s.h.i.+ Family and thus he paid a lot of attention to ideals.

There were many evil disciples within the Demon Path. During the Cloud Desolate Era, there were demons and devils who invaded outer regions.

Even if they have merged into the Cloud World like the Buddhist Faction, becoming one with the Cloud World, after all, their disciples were still mostly cruel and vicious people.

He didn’t have much hate toward Su Xiaoxiao, but he definitely wasn’t going to get close to her. He knew that both of them could only be enemies as there was no possibility of being friends.

It was also not possible to mutually benefit one another.

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes dimmed and she could hear s.h.i.+yue’s intentions to distant himself from her.

s.h.i.+yue was like that and so was Zong Shou. A true intelligent Ruler wouldn’t bother with the Demon Path.

The Sky Demon Vast Habitat was at a disadvantage in this battle for the G.o.d Emperor position.

Following this, she broke out into a laugh, “General s.h.i.+, do you still want to challenge the Blood Sword Monster Lord? You need to be careful! His sword can’t be blocked by ordinary people! As for that Six G.o.d Defensive Knife Technique, you must be more careful with it, especially after he broke through!”

s.h.i.+yue emotionlessly nodded his head, “Although I can’t return his favor, this time I still want to test how strong he is after his tribulation! I’m not a person who takes life so lightly, so naturally I will take great care with my own life!”

“Unfortunately, I’m a bit busy so I won’t be able to spectate your battle with him!”

Su Xiaoxiao’s expression became leisurely once more, then she bowed, “I will take my leave!”

With just a flash, her aura had totally disappeared from the hill.

s.h.i.+yue’s brow rose up and then he patted s.h.i.+ Wuji’s head with an impressed look in his eyes.

“Not bad little fellow! You are so young and your testosterone levels are high, but from start to finish, you weren’t charmed by her charming techniques! I really don’t know how to praise you…”

Charming techniques?

s.h.i.+ Wuji was stunned. He heard about charming techniques, did she use them on him just now? Why didn’t he know about it?

He didn’t care about it much and asked curiously, “s.h.i.+yue, you said that you wanted to fight that Blood Sword Monster Lord?”

“That’s right!”

s.h.i.+yue nodded his head without hesitation, “After all, your uncle is a cultivator, it is a blessing to be able to fight the top expert in the world to prove and verify my skills, how would I miss such a chance? However, now isn’t the right time, but when he completes his tribulation and advances!”

s.h.i.+ Wuji’s eyes flashed, his eyes filled with respect, “Uncle, you are a real gentleman, more righteous than those dark and despicable people.”

When s.h.i.+yue heard this, he couldn’t help chuckle, “What gentleman? What righteousness? This person is sooner or later an enemy of our s.h.i.+ Family. I really wanted to kill him just now. However, I owe him one, so I can’t do that.”

He rubbed s.h.i.+ Wuji’s head, his expression slowly turning serious.

“Wuji, you need to remember that you have to be despicable against your enemies! Don’t bother with righteousness! If you care too much about this stuff, sooner or later it will come back to hurt you.”

s.h.i.+ Wuji was startled, his face slightly uneasy.

However, he didn’t retort it and instead memorized these words at the bottom of his heart.

He knew that right now he had very little knowledge about such matters.

Even if he didn’t recognize and agree with the words of his Senior, he still needed to remember them so he could verify it for himself in the future.

s.h.i.+yue didn’t dwell too much on this matter. He laughed and then stretched his right fist in front of s.h.i.+ Wuji.

“Wuji, can you see the two words in my hand?”

s.h.i.+ Wuji looked closely when he heard this. At this moment, his eyesight was exceptionally sharp.

He could see many Spiritual Patterns flowing under s.h.i.+yue’s skin.

They looked like words, but they were even more complicated like numerous theories and laws were included within.

Just one look and he felt dizzy.

He knew that these were runes. s.h.i.+ Wuji looked closely and felt that he was unable to focus. He stopped himself and then asked hesitantly, “Power and Strength?”

“Yes they are!”

s.h.i.+yue was more and more impressed. Not only were his foundations and resilience good, but his comprehension was also really extraordinary.

“Remember, these two words are the foundations of my Grand Dao!”

He clenched and the region shook for dozens of miles around.

The 1,000-foot tall hill was suppressed by dozens of feet!

There seemed to be a giant power that was gathering at this peak.

“My fist is self-made! It is called the Emperor Calling G.o.d Fist, it is also the future King Path Martial Arts of our s.h.i.+ Family. Strength is formed through power! Great strength means that the fist is strong! The more power this hand grasps, the greater the strength becomes! If I am able to hold 800 worlds, then this fist can even go up against End Realm Experts! If not for this fist technique, I wouldn’t dare to find Zong Shou for a fight! Wuji are you willing to learn from me?”

s.h.i.+ Wuji was stunned once more, however, he didn’t fully believe his words. He was thinking to himself if s.h.i.+yue’s so-called Emperor G.o.d Fist was that strong. What is End Realm?

He then came to his senses, subconsciously saying, “Emperor Path Martial Arts? s.h.i.+yue you want to rebel?”

His gaze was extremely obscure. After he was born, he had experienced several unfair matters in the world.

Sometimes, he really wanted to flip the world on its head and have a change of dynasty! He wanted to pull all those useless and irresponsible n.o.bles down.

However, he knew that if not for those Aristocratic Families causing problems, with the Yuancheng Saint Ruler, Great Shang wouldn’t have ended in such a chaotic state.

His mother and him wouldn’t have been forced into such a state.

“This would depend on the wills of the Heavens!”

s.h.i.+yue shook his head and explained, “Our s.h.i.+ Family is already opening outer regions. In a year, we have occupied half of a world 1,000 times that of ours. If Great Shang is able to calm the rebellion, then we will retreat to the outer region to become an Emperor. If chaos descends and they lose control, then the s.h.i.+ Family will naturally fight. We won’t fall behind others!”

While he said this, his gaze was focused on something dozens of miles away, on the Heaven Reaching Platform which was locked on by a strong Sword Intent.

s.h.i.+yue’s eyes surged with fighting intent, a strong aura surged out from his body.

It descended on the Heaven Reaching Platform!

He was really antic.i.p.ating how strong Zong Shou was after he advanced and pa.s.sed his tribulation.

It was best if he didn’t disappoint him!

※※※※

Not far away from the Heaven Reaching Platform, Kong Rui was also looking thousands of feet away at the two-mile-wide main platform.

The Nameless Sword was in the air gathering Spiritual Energy, forming an extremely eye-catching seven-colored light.

Sword Intent gathered, not only cutting off all their field of sights, but it also blocked all their Spiritual Senses outside.

It made those hundreds of thousands of troops, Hu Zhongyuan and Zong Yuan all worried and shocked.

They chased and killed for a moment, before returning back to defend the formation.

Only Kong Rui could guess what happened within.

His emotions were really complicated. He felt relaxed while also feeling that he lost something important. He was filled with sadness…

Then, he laughed self-mockingly. He was behind all this so he had a part to play.

Looking at his hand, the skin on his arm had opened up and blood was flowing out. There were even numerous ugly tumors that grew all around which gave off a terrible stench.

…This was the price to pay for changing the destiny decided by the Heavens. To heal up would take another 20 years.

However, he had a relaxed expression on his face.

It was still worth it and he had no choice but to do so. Only after today, could he not worry about his daughter.

Even if Kong Yao’s death calamity was solved, after all, she was born from the star power of the Alkaid Star.

Her killing intent and vengeful energy was really strong, but she was a female.

It might not mean much now, but as time went on, it would definitely give rise to another killing calamity!

Now, with Zong Shou helping her take some, she would be able to be fine in the future.

The Monster King was also the only person he would allow to be responsible for Kong Yao for the rest of her life.

Saint King!

He had never seen such a pure white energy in his life.

He looked out in the sky and saw the Alkaid Star s.h.i.+ning bright.

A red cloud covered the southeast.

It wasn’t as uncertain as before and instead completely stabilized.

…Southeast Overlord, there was already no doubt!

At the same time, hundreds of miles away, at the peak of a 36-floor tower.

Zhongxuan looked out and sighed. He turned his head and bowed toward Yuancheng Emperor who was sitting.

“Your Majesty! Zong Shou has safely pa.s.sed the killing calamity. Even if the situation changes, it wouldn’t affect it much!”

Yinyu was expressionless, if not for his gaze fluctuating, one would think that he was a wooden statue.

Only after a moment did he nod and speak, “I need to thank you! If you hadn’t persuaded me, I would have nearly gotten involved. Our Great Shang is dealing with those Aristocratic Families and can’t make such a strong enemy.

“I don’t dare to accept it!”

Zhongxuan shook his head, “Actually, this time I only observed that the destiny from the Heavens had changed a little. Although Zong Shou was facing a calamity, it seemed to have been broken. I knew that it was done by Kong Rui which was why I stopped you. I didn’t expect that Dragon Shadow actually broke into the End Realm!”

“Dragon Shadow! Kong Rui…”

Although this tone was serious and filled with fear, especially when he said the first two words, he didn’t think much about it. However, he was filled with hatred when he spoke the last two.

“The Kong Family people really deserve to die for their sins!”

After finis.h.i.+ng, he looked toward Zhongxuan with a questioning gaze, “Speaking of which, this Zong Shou is definitely the Overlord of the Southeast?”

Zhongxuan was silent and didn’t reply.

However, Yinyu just needed to look at his expression and he knew what he meant, frowning once more.

“Do we have to tell the Yue Country in the south? Do you at least want to send some reinforcements to drag the time…”

“It is already too late!”

Zhongxuan persuaded, “The Great Yue Ruler has already disembarked at Huizhou. It isn’t worth us warning him. He thought that Zong Shou would definitely die. Even if he knew that it was a trap, he was confident of returning victorious! It is probably too late for him to retreat now!”

Roughly half a month ago, Huizhou Governor Zhang Huai and Ren Tianxing moved the Huizhou troops to the north to a.s.sist Donglin.

It also caused the Yue Dynasty in the south to finally have some movement.

It also gave Gantian the excuse to attack the South Wind Cloud Continent.

This was why he believed that the situation in the Southeast was already settled. There was no reason for the five big factions in the Cloud World to interfere.
