Su Yie turned and saw that Tai Su Celestial Lord had appeared beside him at so point, quite close, their shoulders separated by less than ten centiters.
He frowned and asked, "You summoned us here, what for?"
Tai Su Celestial Lord glanced at him and said, "No rush."
After speaking, she turned to walk toward the edge of the cliff.
With a wave of her right hand, the Tai Su Sword Lord summoned three figures flying in from afar.
It was none other than Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Di Jun, and Great Emperor ng.
Seeing them, the expressions of Su Yie and his companions instantly turned odd.
After a long absence, the cultivation of Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Di Jun had reached the mid-stage of the Manifesting Saint Realm, while Great Emperor ng's had attained the early stage of the Manifesting Saint Realm.
They had all once been heroes of the Ancient Wilderness and had been included in the invitation list of Emperor Su's Sect.
"Hmph!"
Di Jun could not help but snort coldly upon seeing Su Yie.
The look on Eastern Emperor Taiyi's face was sowhat complex.
Great Emperor ng was silent, sizing up Su Yie and his group.
Su Yie scanned them, seemingly coming to a realization, with a slight frown on his brow.
"Line up, all of you."
The Tai Su Sword Lord suddenly spoke up, standing in front of Tai Su Celestial Lord with a very humble deanor.
Su Yie remained still while Qi Taxing, the Desolate Martial God, and Sun Qitian stood beside him.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi took his place beside Su Yie; seeing this, Di Jun and Great Emperor ng had no choice but to approach.
And so, Su Yie stood in the middle of the line.
"Do you know why I have summoned you here?"
Tai Su Celestial Lord asked, her eyes indifferent, rendering her thoughts inscrutable.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Di Jun, and Great Emperor ng had no idea who Tai Su Celestial Lord was; they had been brought here by force and were full of confusion at the mont.
"It's the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers, isn't it?"
Su Yie spoke up, and with him included, there were precisely seven people here.
If he was not mistaken, Tai Su Celestial Lord was also a Hongng Divine Spirit!
Qi Taxing, the Desolate Martial God, Sun Qitian, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Di Jun, and Great Emperor ng all showed a change in expression.
They had all once considered the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers as hypothetical enemies, but now it turned out that they were part of the Seven themselves.
"The Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers, bearing the luck of the Ancient Wilderness, you have your mission, and now your mission has co. The Heavenly Monarch will help you beco stronger."
The Tai Su Sword Lord spoke for Tai Su Celestial Lord, and when her gaze fell upon Su Yie, it seed a bit unnatural.
Everyone was in a state of shock and confusion, and they failed to notice her discomfort.
Sun Qitian spoke up and asked, "How strong can we beco? What must we sacrifice?"
The Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers had always been a legend of the Ancient Wilderness, and it turned out there were orchestrators behind it.
Su Yie felt even more adverse to this; he disliked being treated as a pawn.
However, the Tai Su Sword Lord had been kind to him, so he was patient, prepared to listen further.
At this mont, Tai Su Celestial Lord began to speak; she did not directly answer Sun Qitian, instead choosing to recount a story.
"Before the opening of Hongng, there were seven deities, known as the Primordial Seven Gods. Apart from themselves, there was nothing."
"There was no land, no beings, no Five Elents, no Three Calamities. Later, one of them opened Hongng, transforming themselves into everything, into the first batch of creatures. Therefore, they were known as Hongng Divine Spirits, the creators of Hongng!"
"The other Hongng Divine Spirits successively established various rules, such as reincarnation, the Yin and Yang Realms, and the Ultimate Nine Palaces Elental Rules. But one Hongng Divine Spirit remained unaware of their mission until Hongng grew mightily, filled with myriad beings and countless slaughters. Then they had an epiphany and wished to create an environnt with clear hierarchies. Thus, they created the Great Dao, opened up Chaos, and split it into the Great Dao Plane, Grand Worlds, Small Universes, and so forth."
"The Hongng Divine Spirit who opened Chaos was called Tai Yi Hundun. He was ambitious and wanted to overturn Hongng. As Hongng was sustained by the collective efforts of several Hongng Divine Spirits, they beca divided and began scheming for themselves."
The crowd listened in shock, not daring to interrupt.
Their hearts throbbed with excitent, feeling as though they were uncovering the mysterious veil of the world.
"I am one of the Hongng Divine Spirits. I have gathered under my command a Grand World filled with powerful bloodlines of Hongng and treasures, hidden at the edge of Hongng, quietly developing. It is none other than the Ancient Wilderness."
"I founded the Ancient Wilderness specifically to cultivate the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers."
The Tai Su Celestial Lord stopped speaking at this point.
The crowd then understood, was the mission of the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers to contend with other Hongng Divine Spirits?
They imdiately felt a chill, as although each of them was proud and arrogant, they also understood the disparity between themselves and the Hongng Divine Spirits.
"If even you cannot defeat the other Hongng Divine Spirits, how could we possibly do so?"
The Great Emperor ng spoke, understanding that even if their cultivation had improved, they were still re cannon fodder.
"Your target is not the Hongng Divine Spirits, but Chaos."
The Tai Su Celestial Lord spoke leisurely, "There are rules among the Hongng Divine Spirits that they must not act personally. If we are to fight, we let our subordinates do it."
"There are eyes of mine in the Chaos Imperial Clan, and it was I who instigated the Wan Qiu Family to agitate, even the idea to shift the Ancient Wilderness into Chaos was arranged by . Besides, that descendant of the Wan Qiu Family was deliberately sent by into the Ancient Wilderness."
The listeners felt a chill, especially Su Yie. He thought that if Tai Yi Huang knew that all this was not by chance, he would hardly believe it.
"Do you hold such disregard for the lives of the Ancient Wilderness Beings?"
Qi Taxing asked in a deep voice, reassured by the support of Emperor Su's Sect, he was not afraid.
The Tai Su Celestial Lord glanced at him and said, "Has the Ancient Wilderness perished?"
Qi Taxing beca agitated, knowing that if it were not for Emperor Su's Sect, the Ancient Wilderness would have been long gone. How dare you claim that Emperor Su's Sect was also part of your plan?
"Even without Emperor Su's Sect, I had other ans. Because of Emperor Su's Sect, Chaos beca even less suspicious of the Ancient Wilderness and didn't take it seriously. This is your opportunity."
The Tai Su Celestial Lord continued, his tone indifferent, but filled with confidence.
Su Yie's brows furrowed. The Tai Su Sword Lord had told him that it was the Tai Su Celestial Lord who had sent him to Earth. Could it be that he had been arranged as one of the Ancient Wilderness Seven Killers from the start?
"What do you want us to do?"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi asked in a deep voice. He had barely managed to rally a Demon Clan force, only to find out he was a pawn, and the opponent was too powerful to resist. His mood was far from good.
"It's simple. I will teach you the thod to strip away luck. Your mission is to strip away the luck of the Chaos Beings as much as possible. When the fortune of Chaos weakens, Tai Yi Hundun will weaken along with it. At that ti, when the Hongng Divine Spirits join forces, Tai Yi Hundun will surely be suppressed."
The Tai Su Celestial Lord replied, and everyone fell silent.
Were they being tasked to make enemies of the entire Chaos?
"Can we refuse?"
Su Yie asked, staring calmly at the Tai Su Celestial Lord.
The Tai Su Celestial Lord had put in so much effort; he certainly wouldn't execute him over this comnt.
The Tai Su Celestial Lord nodded, saying, "Of course, you can. If you choose to withdraw, I will erase this part of your mory and find other Ancient Wilderness Heavenly Prides to replace you. Haotian Wuxiang was one of the Seven Killers, but unfortunately, he died."
"However, think carefully. This opportunity could bring you to heights you could never achieve in your lifeti and even beco the strongest under the Hongng Divine Spirits!"
