Rise of Humanity - Chapter 809

Chapter 809: 809

The audience knew Consort Tian Si and Zhong Yue were competing, but in what exactly was something they couldn’t tell . But by the looks of it, both were just as strong as one another .

Little did they know that although Zhong Yue and Consort Tian Si were playing the zither and singing, they were in fact, testing each other’s attainments in the art of Karma . Consort Tian Si tried to include him into her Karmic Web, to control his fate; and Zhong Yue was trying to do the same to her .

They were competing in their art of Karma and their divinatory calculation technique . And the result was clear, they both couldn’t triumph over the other and ended up having their fingers cut .

One was playing a melodious zither and the other sang like a barbarian; they looked like they were musicians performing an enchanting concert, but the change of bouts in this battle was even more deadly than ordinary blood battles!

But of course, the enchanting concert was flawed a little by Zhong Yue’s gross lyrics and hoarse voice .

Consort Tian Si returned to the pavilion and smiled coquettishly, “It’s a surprise to see someone as formidable as you . Mister Yi, you and I, we will have a lot more yet to be settled . ”

Zhong Yue smiled, “Consort, where did that come from?”

Consort Tian Si chuckled, she said placidly, “Because we serve different masters, that’s why . Everyone, please excuse me . ” As she finished, she waved her long skirt and bowed at the crowd before leaving the scene .

Zhong Yue’s heart moved and he took a glance at Yang Changsheng, Different masters? Is her master the Zhongyang Clan’s Yan Changsheng? Although Yang Changsheng is from one of the sovereign clans, he isn’t capable of subduing her, is he?

Although Consort Tian Si’s achievements in the art of Karma wasn’t stronger than his, her prowess was immeasurable . In addition to her divinatory calculation technique, her intelligence was far above his!

Zhong Yue had felt it clearly just now .

Knitting a Karmic Web that includes all of the factions and forces in the Zi Wei Galaxy had taken up all of his brain cells . But the lady’s cultivation base was higher than his and so was her intellectual ability .

During the battle, they were competing with only their attainments in the art of Karma, if the battle were to continue any longer, Zhong Yue would soon find himself defeated by her .

Thus, knowing his defeat would come soon, Zhong Yue decisively sang an uncultured song and shattered Consort Tian Si’s melodious zither music .

To those like them, it was more than easy to manipulate the developments of the situation in the galaxy .

Whereas Yang Changsheng was just a god, how was he ever capable of achieving what they have?

It was quite unlikely .

Thus, the ‘master’ Consort Tian Si was referring to was someone other than Yang Changsheng . Her ‘master’ would be one who that was at least on par with the Heavenly Monarch and Imperial Emperor Xian Tian .

Only those who stood at the level dared to manipulate the factions!

Those proficient in the art of Karma like us are not people others would like to mess with . She doesn’t even have to do it on her own to harm me! I need to be more cautious from now!

Zhong Yue furtively raised his guard . Straight up after they met, Consort Tian Si had tried to include him into her Karmic Web; thus, it was clear he was her target and that she wasn’t an ally .

We serve different masters . If my ‘master’ refers to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, then her ‘master’ would be someone who is hostile against him . Whereas for any other force, the best way to drown Imperial Emperor Xian Tian into troubles was to provoke the war between him and Heavenly Monarch . Which means…

He furtively glanced over at Mu Qingxuan and mulled, Consort Tian Si and I share the same goal—we both want the little princess of the Xian Tian Palace dead, to light the first spark of fire in the upcoming war!

If he was able to realize that Xian Tian Palace’s little princess was the trigger for war, then so could Consort Tian Si . Surely enough, she had also come to the same conclusion as Zhong Yue; thus, her target, or to be precise, her master’s target was to kill Mu Qingxuan and let chaos ruin the universe so they could find the golden opportunity to seize the fruit of victory!

Zhong Yue had it all figured out as clear as crystal, they had the same goal and used the same methods . However, it was never possible for him to allow himself to be included into Consort Tian Si’s Karmic Web .

Whether or not Mu Qingxuan died was none of his concern, but there was simply no way he would involve himself in this matter!

If the manipulators were included as part of the game, they would lose their role as manipulators and become one of the many chess pieces on the board . They wouldn’t even be able to control their own fate, let alone that of others!

Zhong Yue would be placed at an extremely precarious position if he was involved in it, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian wouldn’t even spare him!

Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes, he smiled, “It is a great fortune for the Zhongyang Clan to have such a mystical lady like Consort Tian Si . Allow me to congratulate Changsheng first now . ”

Yang Changsheng reciprocated the formality and asked curiously, “Mister Yi, why do you say so?”

Zhong Yue was puzzled, he smiled, “Isn’t Consort Tian Si your servant?”

Yang Changsheng was dawned, he laughed, “Mister Yi, you’ve mistaken! Consort Tian Si is not my servant, she is Royal Prince Wen Dao’s . ”

Royal Prince Wen Dao shook while laughing, “Changsheng, you are the one who is mistaken! Isn’t Consort Tian Si Brother Lu Wang’s servant? Am I right, Brother Yue? I see that you are very familiar with her . ”

Lu Wang was puzzled, he looked at Lu Binger and said, “Sister, she is with you, isn’t she?”

Lu Binger’s face changed drastically, she shook in reply, “When I saw you welcoming Royal Prince Wen Dao, Junior Martial Brother Changsheng, and the rest, she was with them, so I thought she was one of theirs, I didn’t ask…”

The experts’ face changed dramatically, Consort Tian Si had just walked into the Li Lu Clan’s sacred land as if it was her own house, and even made them think she was one of them!

“Chase!” Lu Binger yelled . She flew into the sky and bolted while shouting, “Don’t let her escape!”

Lu Wang, Royal Prince Wen Dao, Yang Changsheng, and the others also rushed out . Even the Luli Clan’s gods, including the Creators took action, swarming out in search of Consort Tian Si .

But after an extended search, they couldn’t even find a single trace of Consort Tian Si’s location . It was as if she were never even here .

Zhong Yue, Mu Qingxuan, and the others also joined the search, but all their efforts bore no fruit .

Then, the enraged Luli Clan experts expanded the search radius and rushed out of their sacred lands . The experts scanned the surroundings with their psyche, overlapping each other’s search range to ensure a solid result . But even after expanding the search radius to over ten thousand miles, they still couldn’t find anything useful .

The incident shook the whole Luli Clan . They were a glorious monarch race, but their sacred land was infiltrated by an unidentified lady, who even sat under the same roof and conversed with the clan master’s daughter as well as the other high prestige experts!

If this were to be known across the universe, it would be a huge slap in the face to the Luli Clan!

“Please, we hope you all can keep this a secret for us,” Lu Binger and Lu Wang found the experts, they said, “We the Luli Clan admit our failures, how can she even find her way into our sacred land . This incident has put the Luli Clan’s reputation at stake, I hope you who have witnessed it keep it only to yourselves . ”

Mu Qingxuan, Royal Prince Wen Dao, Yang Changsheng, and the others exchanged a look, they nodded and said, “Senior Martial Sister Binger, don’t worry, we will keep it a secret . ”

Lu Binger sighed, “After this incident, we are no longer in a mood to hold any events . The clansmen will have a meeting and discuss this matter as well as the necessary measures to prevent future incidents like these . As such, my friends, we apologize for not being able to entertain you any longer . ”

Her intent was clear . Mu Qingxuan, Royal Prince Wen Dao, Yang Changsheng, and the others nodded and left .

Then, Lu Binger summoned the Luli Clan elders and discussed the necessary actions to improve the sacred land’s security so that no future incidents would happen in the future .

Mu Qingxuan, Zhong Yue, and the others walked out of the Luli Clan sacred land . All of a sudden, Mu Qingxuan sighed and said regrettably, “Pity, I wasn’t able to fight my name out in the Luli Clan and spread my fame across the Imperial Star . Seems like we need to find some other ways… How about we challenge the Zhongyang Clan!? Yang Changsheng is not far still, we can catch up to him and challenge him! If I win, everyone will know me!”

She said excited, “If we don’t make it grand, we won’t be able to live . Junior Martial Uncle Yi, if I can’t defeat him, you will help me defeat him . We will still be saved if it’s your name that is made known across the Imperial Star!”

Bo Di and the others looked at one another and saw the same impressions in their eyes—Xian Tian Palace’s little princess was a true troublemaker whose only joy in life was to see the world burn .

The experts quickly followed behind Mu Qingxuan and suddenly heard cries of fear ringing out, followed by a strong odor of the smell of blood gushing into their nose .

Just when they were puzzled, they saw a grand warship covered in burning flames falling down from the sky and crashed into the mountains .

When they hurried to the site, there were severed limbs and shattered bodies all over the place . They could tell the grand warship belonged to Yang Changsheng and those that were dead were his followers!

The experts’ face changed drastically, they quickly boarded the burning warship and found Yang Changsheng on the deck . He stood like a war-seasoned general, his eyes glared wide to the front, his aura filled the air, and his hand was a dragon-like spear .

Mu Qingxuan rushed to him and asked, “Senior Martial Brother Changsheng, what happened!?”

Krong—

The breeze of air that came with her was soft and gentle, but Yang Changsheng was blown to the ground and his aura disappeared all of a sudden!

Mu Qingxuan screamed at the top of her lungs while Zhong Yue’s hairs bristled . Yang Changsheng was dead, heir to the ancient Zhong Yang Sovereign Race, and one of the top hundred strongest gods in the Zi Wei Imperial Star now lay dead before them!

Suddenly, Bo Di shouted, “There’s still one alive here!”

In a step, Zhong Yue reached to the side of the sole survivor . He was a soldier in the warship, his clothes were shabby and parts of his body were charred by the burning fire . He was mumbling like a madman and when he saw Zhong Yue, fear rushed into his eyes and he bolted away, shouting, “Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!”

Mu Qingxuan rushed to him and the soldier grew even more terrified . He mustered all of his strength, even burning his life essence and sped away, he shouted, “Princess of the Xian Tian Palace, please spare me, I have seen nothing!”

Mu Qingxuan was puzzled, she mumbled, “What gibberish is he speaking?”

Then, Zhong Yue turned into the Innate Golden Crow and fluttered his wings, catching up to the soldier and killed him on the spot .

Blood splattered from the sky and the soldier crashed into the rocks lifelessly .

After he killed the soldier, Zhong Yue flew back and returned to his human form, he said solemnly, “Turn around, we’ll return to the Luli Clan!”

Xi He asked in a trembling tone, “Mister, why did you kill him? He is the only witness…”

Zhong Yue’s face was dark and gloomy, he led the experts and rushed back for the Luli Clan while he replied in a cold voice, “What he witnessed is us killing Yang Changsheng and slaughtering his comrades . If we don’t kill him, what he said would be the truth . ”

The experts were shocked by the meaning behind and cold sweat had burst out of their pores . On the other hand, Mu Qingxuan questioned in shock, “But we didn’t do anything, he was already dead when we arrived… Shit!”

She immediately realized it and shouted, “It’s Royal Prince Wen Dao, isn’t it? He was the one who killed Yang Changsheng and tried to frame us for it?”

“No, it’s most likely Consort Tian Si,” Zhong Yue raised his head and spotted the Luli Clan gods coming from over from the horizon, rushing straight for the crash site .

A terrible thought suddenly flashed across Zhong Yue’s mind . He swept his sleeves and kept all of the experts into it while he turned himself into a Shan Shen Celestial Race’s stone giant, sinking deeply into the earth .

Mu Qingxuan quickly asked, “Junior Martial Uncle Yi, aren’t we going to the Luli Clan?”

Zhong Yue replied softly, “Shut up . The Luli Clan has come too fast, it’s like they knew Yang Changsheng would die here . This doesn’t feel right… If they knew this was going to happen, then Consort Tian Si would be one of theirs… Bo Di, can any of you contact the Xian Tian Palace?”
