Chapter 763: Unusual Movements of the Dark Sect
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Since other macro worlds had contacted with the Heaven Realm World, all sects inside united unprecedentedly, with the Human Emperor Palace at the center. Then, a great deal of labor ensued behind the scenes.
Each sect contributed its own share and performed unique functions. Yan Yuntian, a man of special skills, knew all about foreign affairs and how to make contact with other countries, considering he was an emperor in the past.
There were few differences between making contact with other macro worlds and other countries.
The only difference being he represented Jin in the past, but now, he did everything on behalf of the Heaven Realm World.
One result of such concerted efforts was the Child-endowing Buddha’s appointment to be the guide in the Human Emperor Palace.
There were two reasons for that. First, the Child-endowing Buddha’s enormous size and always wearing a smile just like the Maitreya. The second was his otherworldly power and becoming a Lord of Heaven. If chosen to do this job, he could manifest the power of the Heaven Realm World. And although most of the macro worlds in the Void Universe had Human Immortals, Immortals, and even Earthly Immortals, those who could leave their world for other worlds and behave aggressively were merely Lords of Heaven. Only one or two Human Immortals ever performed such a daring feat, but they had to act cautiously. Therefore, only the Child-endowing Buddha was qualified for the work.
Because he accomplished such a great deal of tasks and guests from other macro worlds could not recognize him, he gained the nickname, “Guide Master.” As time pa.s.sed, even the pract.i.tioner who recognized him in the Heaven Realm World referred to him with this moniker. And that depressed him.
Moreover, he encountered some troubles in the recent practice. Hence, though he always wore a smile while doing the work, when he was alone, he felt immensely sad and miserable, as if he chewed a mouthful of Chinese goldthread.
“Hey, Guide Master! Why pull a long face every day? It’s unlike you!”
The Child-endowing Buddha walked out of the Human Emperor Palace. When he went to go back to his room and get some rest, a figure suddenly appeared beside him and said these words with scorn.
“Oh, it’s benefactor w.a.n.g She. May I know what advice you have for me?!”
Zhou Bao, w.a.n.g She and the Child-endowing Buddha colluded together for many years, but now everyone in the world knew that w.a.n.g She had a good relations.h.i.+p with Zhou Bao, while the Child-endowing Buddha harbored a deep hatred for Zhou Bao because he had suffered a setback due to him. Thus, the Child-endowing Buddha resented w.a.n.g She.
That was indeed the truth. The Child-endowing Buddha held a post in the Human Emperor Palace, but so did w.a.n.g She. However, neither was subordinate nor impediment to the other. But w.a.n.g She relished ridiculing the Child-endowing Buddha now and then when he saw his sad face, as if laughing at him would make him feel at ease.
“Benefactor w.a.n.g needn’t bother in my affairs!” The Child-endowing Buddha remained calm and clasped his palms together. “I’m wondering what benefactor w.a.n.g is doing in front of the Human Emperor Palace. After all, you’re supposed to do your job at this moment!”
“Oh, I just received some news and am about to report it to the Human Emperor. I’m very familiar with the path to the Human Emperor Palace, so I needn’t bother master to guide me!”
“Then please allow me to take my leave!” The Child-endowing Buddha realized that w.a.n.g She neither came for something big nor to see him, so he left in a hurry.
Unlike the Child-endowing Buddha, w.a.n.g She mainly carried out intelligence-gathering work. Of course, he did not collect information himself. His responsibility rested on gathering and reporting the collected information to his superiors.
w.a.n.g She walked into the main hall of the Human Emperor Palace, like strolling through a park. Human Emperor Yan Yuntian had just finished all the work at hand. He leaned against a golden chair and refreshed his spirit by closing his eyes.
After serving as a Human Emperor for such a long time, he looked completely different from before. When sworn in as a Human Emperor, he behaved just like an emperor in the secular world. However now, he was elevated to a new level; a stream of purplish, gold air surged around him, and when he opened his eyes, flas.h.i.+ng gold starlight gleamed in them.
Every time w.a.n.g She saw Yan Yuntian, he would sigh and think in his heart.“Truly a lucky man!”
To be frank, Yan Yuntian was by no means the most outstanding one among the Human Emperors of past ages. In fact, he proved to be an ordinary one, not even as good as most of his emperor peers.
Nonetheless, he had a good son-in-law and a good chance.
He did not need to care too much about others’ facial expressions due to Zhou Bao’s strength. In addition, he received an opportunity to integrate the Heaven Realm World when it exposed to the Void Universe once again. He took advantage of it to push his majesty to the peak.
Similarly, as he gained more authority, his strength advanced, and the Way of the Emperor he practiced became more subtle and profound. w.a.n.g She figured out that Yan Yuntian’s strength advanced by leaps and bounds and he stepped into the Eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven Realm within a few dozen days.
“Such a lucky old man! I’ll rear a good daughter and find a good son-in-law too. If so, I won’t need to struggle in this lifetime!” w.a.n.g She thought, walking to Yan Yuntian quickly. “Pay my respects to Your Majesty!”
“Oh, Chief w.a.n.g, please take a seat!”
When he noticed w.a.n.g She’s arrival, Yan Yuntian’s facial expression hardened.
His position and strength were elevated to new heights compared to before. Yet, he could not do whatever he wished in the Heaven Realm World. w.a.n.g She proved to be his worst fear.
He was not only one of the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace, but also a sworn follower of Zhou Bao. Meanwhile, he had another t.i.tle—the second expert in the Seven-deity Regions.
You may ask, who was the first expert?
Without a doubt, Zhou Bao, and w.a.n.g She the universally accepted second expert. Although he was just an ordinary Genuine Immortal at the Lord of Heaven Realm, he crossed a Void Tribulation instead of an ordinary one. This matter alone enabled him to far exceed all the other pract.i.tioners in the Seven-deity Regions.
With the cultivation of a Lord of Heaven, w.a.n.g She exerted a combat capability which matched that of Immortals. At present, he was the most suitable one to represent the power of the Heaven Realm World. Coupled with his background, even though Yan Yuntian was the Human Emperor, he feared w.a.n.g She and respected him.
“It is late. Why have you come, Chief w.a.n.g?”
“I just heard some news that matters immensely, so I am here for wise instructions, Your Majesty!” Although w.a.n.g She was an unruly man, he showed due respect for Yan Yuntian because of Zhou Bao.
“What have you heard?”
“The Devil Tribe invades the Easternmost Part of the Eastern Land. Soon they will capture a macro world!”
“The Easternmost Part of the Eastern Land?!” Yan Yuntian stroked his chin in confusion. Since the Heaven Realm World interconnected with the Void Universe once again, he crammed much knowledge about the Void Universe into his brain. Thus, he knew where the Easternmost Land lay. Presently, the Heaven Realm World was located in the most remote place of the West Wilds—the Desolate Ancient Star Area, while the Easternmost Land, as its name implied, was situated in the most remote territory of the Eastern Land.
Two wholly unrelated areas.
Not to mention the Devil Tribe invaded the Easternmost Land and was poised to occupy a macro world. But even if the entire Eastern Land was in a crisis, such matters were none of his business.
“When the Devil Tribe made a ma.s.sive invasion into that place, the Primordial Demon in the center of the Infinite Star Sea appeared to have some unusual movements. It is said that another Devil Fetus suddenly formed!”
“The Infinite Star Sea?!” When w.a.n.g She mentioned this place, Yan Yuntian paid more attention to this matter, obliged to do so.
The Infinite Star Sea was not so close to the Heaven Realm World, but there were several Transmitting Formations connecting each other. Also, it was the only Star Area that the Heaven Realm World could get in touch with when the latter was isolated in the Void Universe. However, it was occupied by two fleets of the Holy Alliance. As for the Heaven Realm World, it proved to be the most sensitive Star Area. On hearing that another Devil Fetus appeared in that area, Yan Yuntian’s jaw dropped in shock. “How is this possible?!”
“This is the weirdest place. Since the Primordial Demon in the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode has been released, demons appear in the West Wilds now and then, and also in the Eastern Land. I didn’t have any impression of the Dark Sect in the past, but since I took charge of these dealings, I discovered its strength has increased greatly in recent years. However, it didn’t reveal that deliberately. On the contrary, it seemed to conceal something. I always thought there was something wrong.”
“You mean the Devil Tribe will attack the Heaven Realm World too?”
“I have not the slightest idea. Although the chance that will happen is slim, if the Dark Sect causes trouble in the Heaven Realm World, it would be a disaster.”
“Agreed, I always felt the Dark Sect had done everything in an extremely cruel way, but I didn’t expect they would collude with the Devil Tribe!”
“It’s just pure speculation. I have no evidence, but I guess it is accurate information!” w.a.n.g She’s face turned grave. Since the Heaven Realm World and the Void Universe came into contact again, he discovered the Dark Sect had conducted many big movements. Furthermore, he once felt a spell of subtle and unfathomable Devil Qi. Although it seemed like a flash in the pan, it was more than enough to attract his attention.
“Say, Chief w.a.n.g, what do you believe we should do to remedy this matter?”
Hearing this, w.a.n.g She felt like kicking him down from the throne. “You are the Human Emperor, the one who is responsible for it. What do you mean by asking for my advice? If I can handle it, why do I bother to come to you? This is not my business.”
“I don’t have any ingenious ideas. But if I must propose a solution, I believe the best option is to let Zhou Bao exit the training to clear all unstable factors in the Heaven Realm World away. But it is a pity he will do this closed-door training for 10 years!”
“Yes, he will do the closed-door training for 10 years.”
In the past, Yan Yuntian thought Zhou Bao to be utterly detestable because he always appeared in front of him but was not obedient to him. Yet now, when something horrific happened, he realized how beneficial it would be if Zhou Bao were in front of him.
“Well then, can we ask for that person’s advice?” Yan Yuntian asked, pointing upward.
“Hmm, then we must wait until Zhou Bao exits the training because that person only follows his advice!” w.a.n.g She said with a wry smile.
