Chapter 821.1: Severing All Ties!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Tian Fa will not be the place to start the war! The human race on the Xuan Xuan Continent can move around and live freely, wherever they want! But there is only one Tian Fa Forest! Humans can have countless hos, but the Xuan Beasts of Tian Fa only have this single one! After everyone ca to an agreent, us nine brothers guarded the seal without any complaints! Admittedly, it is for the sake of the peace and harmony of the Xuan Xuan Continent, but it is also for the sake of making Tian Fa the sacred land of the Xuan Beasts!
“We had thought that with the nine of us sacrificing wholeheartedly, we could at the very least ensure peace in Tian Fa for eternity! But we had never imagined you guys would go back on your words right before our eyes! What sort of logic is this? Don’t tell that vow and promise back then was just rely a worthless piece of paper! Were we, the Xuan Beasts, really so easy to dupe?!”
That burly man’s face was completely pale. His expression was sowhat dispirited. But he was extrely forceful in when he spoke! There was an extrely furious look in his eyes as he stared intently at the twenty n before him. He made it clear that if there was any disagreent, they would start a battle imdiately and there would be no room for salvation!
Clearly, the other party’s behaviour of forcefully starting the war in Tian Fa without caring about the safety of Tian Fa had thoroughly enraged him!
“Saint Emperor Lu has misunderstood. The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master is our common enemy; if this person is not eliminated, the danger and threat to the continent will never be resolved. With regards to what Saint Emperor Lu asked earlier, there are a lot of sudden changes in this situation, so do allow give you an explanation at a later ti. After all, we are all injured and need to imdiately return to recuperate. A small matter like this can wait till the next ti we et. Then we shall clarify everything for good.” Brother Cao gave a forced smile, awkwardness plastered across his face.
“Small matter? Cao Guo Feng, you are truly shaless. Are you telling that this matter of Tian Fa is rely a small matter in your eyes? You’re still trying to obscure the facts with your words! What I want is not that so-called explanation of yours! I want an honest answer!”
That burly man wore an extrely cold expression as he spoke in a deep voice. “If you lot do not give an answer today, then all twenty of you can remain in Tian Fa! Just because you are Saint Emperor experts, you think can invert right and wrong in Tian Fa?!”
This Tian Fa Saint Emperor really has quite a temper!
Jun Mo Xie, who had concealed himself, ntally exclaid in admiration. Although this fellow was simple minded and had an upright character, causing him to easily be tricked and taken advantage of, but when he really argued, he didn’t give a sh*t! Like a real man!
Cao Guo Feng snickered. “Brother Lu, if this was over three hundred years ago, perhaps I really would have considered carefully when you made this statent. But… After being completely exhausted after three hundred and seventy five years, you wish to hold all twenty of us back in here… Haha, even though we have all sustained injuries, but I highly doubt that is possible? Conversely, if we take the risk of our injuries worsening, which side do you reckon will have a greater chance of leaving this place alive?”
Beside him, another person snickered and added. “Brother Lu, as the the saying goes, everything changes with ti. Those days where the world cowered at the feet of Tian Fa are long over. It will never return. We are all old acquaintances; why can’t we talk over this amicably? Why must we have to engage in aningless brawl… With the current strength of Tian Fa, is it really capable of doing any good?”
Saint Emperor Lu’s expression darkened. He said coldly, “Well said. What you an is that… you begged us for help when we were strong, now that we are not as powerful, we should be at your rcy? Allow others to butcher us?”
Although this was what everyone ant, so things were better left unsaid. But he had spelt it out so clearly, causing the few Saint Emperors and Saint Kings to feel a little embarrassed.
After all, the nine Saint Kings of Tian Fa had devotedly guarded the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master for so many years. And clearly, Tian Fa was doing them a favour. But the reason they did not fulfil their end of the promise was because they no longer had any use for Tian Fa, so they decided to destroy the bridge after crossing the river 1 . And no matter how hypocritical these Saint King experts were, they still needed to preserve their last shred of dignity, so there was no way they could openly admit to this.
“The clenched fist is the strongest argunt! It is a fact that the current Tian Fa’s strength is far from how it was in the past! Saint Emperor Lu is always open and honest; I believe you would not deny this fact?”
That white-clothed man paused for a mont before continuing. “That is the rule of the pugilistic world, and that is the way it has been for ten thousand years. Comradeship and loyalty… Saint Emperor Lu, in this iron-blooded pugilistic world, don’t you think that they’re just a joke?”
“The one surnad Bai, can I take it as you are speaking on behalf of the Misty Illusory Manor?” The Saint Emperor Lu took a step forward, a glow radiating in his eyes and he stared at his face, his hair and beard flaring upwards!
“Of those from the Misty Illusory Manor present here, I am the most senior one here!” The white-clothed man hesitated for a mont before raising his head and replying. This sentence not only outrightly admitted to all the things said earlier, but also represented the standpoint of the entire Misty Illusory Manor!
“Good! Good! Good!” Saint Emperor Lu nodded his head heavily and said. His gaze turned to the other people. “Everyone from the three Holy Lands also ans this?”
Everyone exchanged looks. A long while passed, but still no one spoke up. That person from Misty Illusory Manor had already made things clear. They were both on the sa team, and if they denied it, they would have offended the Misty Illusory Manor. If they admitted to it, they would offend Tian Fa Forest. They were completely caught in the middle. They were all cursing that Brother Bai in their heads for driving all them to the edge of the cliff!
But these people thought about how their juniors had targeted Tian Fa not too long ago. And even ganged up to beat the the current Lord of Tian Fa Venerable i to death. This vengeance and hatred alone had already made it impossible for both of them to share the sa sky. And now these seniors of Tian Fa have reerged, there was no way they could hide the incident. Might as well be honest and make it clear first.
And now Tian Fa Forest had been greatly weaken, and these nine senior Beast Kings were on the verge of dying. The junior Beast Kings were still weak, it seed… that there was no need to be this careful…
Might as well keep silent and admit to it silently!
Looking at the awkward and guilty expressions on everyone’s faces, yet the fact no one was speaking, Saint Emperor Lu couldn’t help but laugh coldly in indignation. “Good, great, it’s excellent! For the sake of an illusory, unreal promise, we nine brothers had slogged for almost four hundred years. To the point that even our primordial spirit was severely damaged. Under the impacts from the seals, we have really beco spent forces. Since the three Holy Lands and Misty Illusory Manor think that the current Tian Fa is nothing, then this Seat does not have the cheek to demand for an answer! This being the case, this tiny little Tian Fa Forest is also unable to receive deities like yourselves! Farewell, all of you, I shall not see you off!”
His eyes suddenly glared and he declared. “From now on, all ties shall be severed! Tian Fa will also not be involved in anything concerning the Xuan Xuan Continent! Even that War for Seizing the Heavens is none of our business! Friendship and gratitude of ten thousand years shall all be written off in one strike! Take it as it had never existed! From now on, we are strangers! If any humans dares to trespass into the ferocious land of Tian Fa, their fates shall be entirely up to Heaven!”
He sounded determined to sever all ties, as if he was in great grief and anger. A grief that ca from deep within could be heard in his words! And the aning behind his words was very clear; from now onwards, they were no longer friends or allies, but… enemies!
In just a couple of sentences, the five greatest powers of the Xuan Xuan Continent fell apart!
Saint Emperor Lu could not be blad for being reckless regarding this matter!
Saint Emperor Lu and his eight brothers were in extre grief and fury!
When that solemn vow was taken, all four parties had simultaneously made a serious promise that they would ensure the peace of Tian Fa Forest and even give more generous conditions. Thus, the nine Beast Kings were willing to sacrifice themselves and enter the Mist formation set up by the Illusory Manor, devotedly guarding it, resisting the strikes from the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master with all their might!
Before entering the forbidden grounds, amongst these nine great Beast Kings, Saint Emperor Lu who had the highest cultivation level, had the strength of a first level Saint Emperor! The other eight Beast Kings were all at the level of Saint Kings! Three of them had even reached the second level of a Saint King!
But in this duration of almost four hundred years, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master had struggled incessantly, day and night. Dragging these nine n along with him through hundreds of years of tornt! Originally, this sort of high level resistance would allow them to easily upgrade in their strength, but they could not achieve it because they were stuck in the crucial positions of the seal! Not only were they unable to level up, it had extrely detrintal effects to their body, damages that were almost impossible to recover from!
The strength of these nine Beast Kings was constantly sucked into the seal so support it! So they practised without rest, but it was not enough to supply the amount of energy the seal consud!
Never mind just having their strength sucked away. But coupled with the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master’s incessant attempts at breaking free, the amount of energy the seal required also gradually increased! To the point in recent years, it led to their pitiful state, both physically and ntally!
For almost four hundred years, these seniors Beast Kings not only did not make any improvents, but compared to before, they had weakened drastically! And they suffered injuries that they would never fully recover from!
These were injuries that consud them from the inside. Wearing them down ntally! Cutting their lifespan short!
But this was sothing that no miraculous dicine that had appeared on Xuan Xuan Continent could replenish and heal!
Three hundred and seventy five years!
Those junior Saints from the three Holy Lands back then had already beca Saint Emperors! The Saint King experts from back then had all successfully levelled up to beco Saint Emperors! But these nine brothers ended up like this after wasting three hundred and seventy five years!
They had suffered a huge disadvantage with this alone. But they did not expect that the mont the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master have escaped and the seal lost its effectiveness, these people imdiately shalessly fell out and turned hostile! Destroying the bridge after they crossed the river!
Not only did they go back on their promise, they even insisted on starting the battle in Tian Fa! The most despicable deceit and the most shaless replies and excuses left people bitterly disappointed. All the solemn promises of the three Holy Lands and Misty Illusory Manor were rely a worthless piece of paper! A giant joke that was not amusing at all!
Thank goodness, for so reason, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master stayed in the air since he ca out. Otherwise, the entire surrounding region would already have been in thoroughly ruined!
