Chapter 1143: Chapter 533: Heaven’s Punishnt! (Part 2)
Ten thousand years!
A full ten thousand years!
Even Gu Jianlin was slightly lost in thought, finding it difficult to imagine such loneliness and despair.
Just like Qing and Chi returning from the depths of the universe.
Silver and Gold also suffered great changes when the outside world wasn’t paying attention.
The joys and sorrows of ten years can make a person completely unrecognizable.
Let alone... ten thousand years.
Jiang Yanli froze; in fact, he wasn’t one to care about right or wrong.
But faced with his junior brothers and sisters, he truly had nothing to say.
"What about ?"
Ying Changsheng stepped out and said, "Do I have the right to bla you, grandfather?"
The Golden King glanced at him, his gaze unchanged: "I didn’t realize you were so loyal to Master. No... I think it’s because of your sister, right?"
Few people knew that more than a decade ago, the Ying Family had designated an heir who was not the current Crown Prince. Before him, there was an even more talented eldest daughter who mysteriously disappeared while carrying out a task.
Ying Changsheng had been investigating his sister’s cause of death all these years, until he pointed the investigation towards the Ying Family.
"I don’t know how terrifying your experiences at the Fusang Divine Palace were."
Ying Changsheng said softly, "But what did my sister do wrong? She admired you so much and saw you as the role model she chased throughout her life, only to end up as a sacrifice in the Third Law experint, dying with her eyes open in disbelief."
The Golden King responded indifferently, "I don’t care."
He returned from Fusang Divine Palace, and this was the first ti he tore off his mask.
Showing his deford, morbid, and inhuman truth.
Ying Changsheng’s lips moved slightly, faced with his grandfather’s frankness, he found himself speechless.
"Teacher."
Tang Ling’s cold voice rang out in the wind and rain: "So all these years, you always knew?"
The Silver King calmly said, "The most important asset should, of course, be watched in person. In Master’s eyes, you are her chosen successor. But in our eyes, your genetic structure is the tool to replicate the Third Law. The reason we could also rge with the Third Law was by mimicking your genetic structure."
Her voice was icy, devoid of any guilt: "I spent more than ten years making you like , but I didn’t find out that beneath your iceberg exterior lay such a passionate heart. In the end, you ran off with a man. Huh, I must say... this part of you does remind
of my younger days. We were supposed to retrieve you in the second layer of Qilin Immortal Palace, mass-produce Third Law adapters, but unfortunately, underestimated your man’s strength."
So that’s it, everything was calculated.
The Order of the Hidden’s power stemd from their roots within the Order World.
However, when Taihua discovered the truth, she alone blocked the curse of Candle Light Law.
The problem was, she overlooked her two students.
Silver and Gold never studied Candle Light Law, so naturally, they wouldn’t be suspected.
Tang Ling silently gripped the Iron Sword, her soaked bangs half-covering her beautiful eyes: "You all knew about this long ago, so you used my great-grandfather to search deep within Qilin Immortal Palace for clues about the Third Law..."
In the wind and rain, her voice trembled.
It proved that the Ancient God Clan had won.
The efforts of human sages across generations were finally completely overturned in this one.
And in the world of the Ancient God Clan, the Vermilion Bird Venerate had won.
Gold and Silver did not reply, instead gazing at the black-haired youth.
"You know what I want to ask?"
Gu Jianlin rembered the diary Old Gu left behind and said calmly, "Gu Ci’an was forced to death by you. He was already very cautious, never trusting the Order World. It wasn’t just because of the Order of the Hidden’s presence; he also realized the unified will had other allies. He just didn’t have ti to sort out all the relations, so he fell into a situation beyond redemption. Only one step short."
He paused: "When he returned from Qilin Immortal Palace, he was very close to the truth."
Looking back now, on that stormy highway, Old Gu was saying goodbye to him.
He wanted to send him to a safe place, never to et again in this life.
"Yes, but you still can’t figure out the principle behind the curse."
Gold and Silver stood up, their killing intent boiling, replying: "If you want to know the truth, co for revenge. If you win, Chi You has ways to force us to reveal it."
Gu Jianlin remained silent; this was what he wanted.
Revenge should be like this, each blade drawing blood, fight until one side perishes.
In the storm, Tianji was already standing behind him, Ye Dao and Tianshu guarding each side.
As Eighth Rank Divine Servants, their role in this battle was to guard, creating optimal attack conditions for the Master, while also ensuring their two Sixth Rank teammates don’t get killed instantly.
Candle Light and You Ying’s laws appeared on them, shaking the rain.
Jiang Yanli tossed away the cigarette from his mouth into the rainpool, drawing a bewitching tachi from the void. His pupils lit up with an awe-inspiring Ancient Dragon, ancient and solemn!
The eerie Sword Qi perated the storm, his aura soaring!
He had evidently returned to Ninth Rank level.
"Logically speaking, I should be able to handle both of you alone."
Jiang Yanli stroked the gleaming blade and said lightly, "Now with my good junior nephew’s help, I really can’t imagine how we would lose. So tell , whence cos your confidence?"
The opposition were two Ninth-tier Demigods.
Including the heavily damaged Hui Feng and Xuanyin, and the Fifth Rank Mu Shiyu.
On our side, there was one Ninth-tier Demigod, plus three Eighth Rank and one Seventh Rank, two Sixth Rank.
But considering our side possessed the ability to challenge beyond ranks, the advantage was clear.
"Our aim is not to defeat you, senior brother."
The Golden King crossed his arms, Iron Sword floating overhead: "I know I’m not your match, but delaying a bit isn’t a problem, as long as it drags until the appearance of the Heavenly Person’s Wedge."
The Silver King said coldly, "Shiyu, take action."
Mu Shiyu’s retina flashed with surging data, the sky lit up with endless stars, cold cross-shaped brilliance piercing through the atmosphere, the howling storm and rain, illuminating the land.
The murderous intent of the stars locked entirely on Jiang Yanli.
"I never expected, the weapon I designed years ago would end up being used against ."
Jiang Yanli scratched his head: "No wonder you protected this Mu Family girl so much, she’s clearly chosen by you to control the Deep Space Network. But I must say, do you know how I lost back then? It was because I offended too many people and got jumped by everyone, wasn’t it?"
"I initially thought you should learn from my lessons, senior brother."
His gaze revealed a hint of a mischievous smile, aningfully saying: "Don’t underestimate an Avenger’s will to survive. Among those you experinted on and discarded, there indeed were so survivors."
Silver and Gold paused.
Jiang Yanli turned and smiled: "Child, do you know No.5’s true identity?"
Gu Jianlin squinted.
"Back then when Master was critically injured and hospitalized, Silver and Gold rushed to the hospital. It seed like they were there to protect her, but in reality, they were usurping and seizing power. Master noticed sothing was amiss, so she divided her legacy among us brothers. In this matter, our mother-child trio maintained a high degree of consistency."
Jiang Yanli smiled and said: "Naturally, it includes you."
He took out his phone and made a call: "Over to you, Liu Li."

Central Spirit Core Institute, two hundred ters underground.
Liu Li swept back her fluffy black hair, her forehead showing faint bumps where the brain-machine interface chip was embedded, her retina flowing with surging data, like a vast ocean.
"So your surna is Mu."
Jiang Ziye crossed his arms, sighed: "You are from the Mu Family."
Su Youxia said faintly: "Another dutiful daughter indeed."
Liu Li looked up, expressionless: "Heaven’s Punishnt teor, activate."
