Chapter 827: On the Verge of Death? Let Me Take A Look!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The moment Mei Xue Yan was severely injured, Jun Mo Xie wanted to deal with the three Holy Lands immediately! Although he could barely cause significant damage to the three Holy Lands with his strength, but with his undetectable Yin Yang Escape and heaven-defying Power of the Five Elements, he was definitely capable of completely destroying their sect if he caught them unprepared! Let this bunch of hypocrites who preach about ‘the sake of the world’ become stray dogs!
But he remembered that it was Mei Xue Yan’s life long wish to ensure the victory of the War for Seizing the Heavens. Jun Mo Xie could not bring himself to destroy her hope. And even more so, he did not wish to really become the criminal who had destroyed the peace of the continent!
So Jun Mo Xie chose to endure it and retreat. Moving the entire Jun Family into Tian Fa. First, it would prevent them from sustaining losses. Secondly, it could prevent conflict. It left everything to be determined only after the War for Seizing the Heavens!
To anyone else, this retreat into Tian Fa Forest was a well executed change in battle strategy. But only Jun Mo Xie knew that his retreat this time was really indignant!
Jun Mo Xie had long left Tian Fa Forest as the final place he would be retiring into. But he had intended to go into seclusion after he had become the strongest in Continent! And not like this, ‘escaping’ into Tian Fa Forest to avoid his enemies!
These were two completely different concepts!
But this incident of Zhan Mu Bai’s sudden attack had truly thoroughly enraged Jun Mo Xie.
He had almost lost his life, Green Hunter’s life was hanging by a thread, with no certainty of recovery! No matter what, it was impossible for him to accept this sort of disastrous aftermath!
First it was Mei Xue Yan, next it was Green Hunter. Then if he continued to give in... then who would be next?
I have already given way, but you guys still insist on not sparing us, so why should I still give in?
When dealing with a vicious dog, if one did not hurt it or beat it to death, then it would continue to bite like crazy without giving up! Only by beating it to death or hurting it so much that it would run at the sight of you could you finish it, once and for all!
So Jun Mo Xie was preparing to strike back! And it would be a utterly bloody one!
But he did not reveal all these thoughts. He only solemnly, but indifferently, suppressed all the hatred in his heart, swallowing it all down... Let them brew in his heart, waiting for the moment they can explode!
Before it could be exploded, Jun Mo Xie would absolutely not let anyone else see it, that he had such an intense and strong vindictive mentality!
Currently, Jun Mo Xie’s mind was like a wolf king prowling on a large green pasture, silently waiting for the most suitable moment for striking to arrive. Before that moment appearped, he would never ever reveal his fangs!
“Let’s go. To my place. Let us discuss about what to do next.” Jun Mo Xie leapt up, lightly dusting himself. He smiled peacefully, as if nothing had just happened.
But all the Beast Kings who heard his sentence felt a chill run down their spines! As if they could already see mountains of dead bodies, oceans of blood that was going to churn out from the hands of this youth...
But this was the innate instinct of Xuan Beasts. The instinct to detect danger. An instinct that humans were not equipped with!
————————————————-
“How did it turn out like this? They are basically bullying us! We shouldn’t have let those bastards leave unscatched even if we had to risk it all! We are beasts, but they are all worse than beasts!”
In Jun Mo Xie’s hall, Saint Emperor Lu couldn’t help but holler in fury after learning of what Tian Fa had experienced in these years from Long Crane.
Slaving away for almost four hundred years, only in exchange for complete betrayal. This was something that no one could accept. If Saint Emperor Lu’s original cultivation was still around, it was highly likely that he would have stormed his way over to the headquarters of the three Holy Lands to seek justice!
Long Crane and the rest lowered their heads and stood at attention, afraid to make a single noise.
“What about Xue Yan? Where is she now? How much of her injuries have she recovered from?” Saint Emperor Lu asked coldly.
“Xue Yan has been making good progress. Currently, she has recovered to a level... about a level eight Xuan Beast. But she will still need quite some time to fully recover all of her powers.” Jun Mo Xie replied.
“Xue Yan... she was reduced to her original form?” Saint Emperor Lu looked at him in shock, he really did not dare to believe what he had just heard. Suddenly, he slammed the table. The sturdy stone table was turned into powder. “Aside from going back on their words, the three Holy Lands still dared to go this far! I swear that I will not let this matter go!”
The other eight Saint Kings were also extremely infuriated!
Other people may not know, but how could they not? Mei Xue Yan... she was the only living descendant of the bloodline Tian Fa’s Ancestor Saint Emperor Mei had left behind! The only royal blood in the entire Tian Fa Forest! The greatest secret of Tian Fa Forest!
Of all the beasts in Tian Fa, no matter how high their cultivation reached, even if they attained the realm of Saint Emperor, they could only be addressed as ‘Beast King’. Only the descendants of the bloodline of Saint Emperor Mei had the rights to be called ‘Lord of Tian Fa’!
If Mei Xue Yan had really died back then, then all nine of them could not imagine how it would all unfold! If that ancestor suddenly came of the secret chamber of Tian Fa in a fit of anger... Calling it a calamity would be an understatement of what would follow...
After a long while, they finally calmed down. They asked Jun Mo Xie. “Little Jun, you are Xue Yan’s husband; do you have any plans?”
Jun Mo Xie had already knew, this Saint Emperor Lu, Chasing Wind Deer, and these eight senior Beast Kings: the current Crane Saint King Hazy Crane, Lion Saint King Breaking Stone, Monkey Saint King Brave Monkey, Snake Saint King Innocuous Snake, Panther Saint King Unusual Bun, Tiger Saint King Reckless Tiger, Bear Saint King Thunder Bear, and Wolf Saint King Wind Wolf.
These nine people were the big shots whose reputations shook the whole of Xuan Xuan!
“My plans can be discussed at a later time. But what is most important right now is what plans do the nine of you seniors have?” Jun Mo Xie paused for a while without giving an answer. Instead, he returned it with a question. And although it was not spelt out in the open, everyone understood that Jun Mo Xie was asking these nine seniors what position they considered themselves to be in.
There was no second sun in the sky. There was no second Emperor in a country!
Even for Xuan Beasts!
There was no doubt that the return of these nine people would greatly help Tian Fa. But along with it was a division of the higher powers. There was a major issue in even having two Kings in most species!
In the past few hundred years, Tian Fa had developed an extremely strict management system. The newly appointed Beast King would have the irrefutable, supreme authority of their own species! But now that the senior Beast Kings came out of seclusion, this was a significant blow to the power system!
This issue of position must be resolved immediately!
Otherwise, it would lead to a long-lasting disaster of internal crisis!
To fight the enemies outside, you had to first resolve all internal conflicts. Jun Mo Xie was about to embark on his revenge. Of course, he did not wish to discover internal conflicts in his own camp! So the first thing he had to do was resolve this potential crisis!
“Asking us on what plans we have? The few of us old guys have all suffered great injuries; we will not be around for long. Even if we wish to lead the Beasts again, we are lacking in the strength to do so!”
Deer Chasing Wind laughed bitterly and said, “The nine of us already discussed this earlier. We will spend the rest of our lives aiding our own species. But! If there is any battle, it must be the nine of us old men to go out there first. We may no longer be as strong as we were, but we are still capable of taking down an enemy of the same level as us. After that, none of the Beast Kings are allowed to recklessly go onto the field. This is the only request we have.”
The other eight Saint King nodded their heads.
Jun Mo Xie, Long Crane, and the other Beast Kings were greatly relieved when they heard this.
With Deer Chasing Wind as representative, purposely saying all these, it was the equivalent of an official handing over of powers between the Beast Kings.
“Mo Xie and the Beast King are completely touched by the loyalty of all the seniors here. But there is one matter that baffles me, and I’d like to seek senior’s help in understanding it.” Jun Mo Xie frowned before continuing. “Senior Lu, back when the nine of you entered the Mist, the lowest cultivation level was that of a Saint King! But in these three hundred over years, the legacy of Xuan Beasts have only reached the level of a Spirit Xuan. The only exception is Xue Yan, who was a Venerable at most, this... what is the reason behind this? It couldn’t be that Long Crane, Big Bear and the rest did not work hard enough, right?”
An extremely angered look appeared upon Deer Chasing Wind’s face once again. “Isn’t it all part of the ploy of those bastards! Since ancient times, it was Tian Fa’s tradition to only pass the real secret techniques to the newly appointed Beast King when they were handing the baton over. It had always been by word of mouth. But that time, we barely had time to impart it and got tricked into entering the Mist... Big Bear, Long Crane, and the rest naturally would not have inherited the techniques that they should have as Beast Kings. How could they become strong? Little Mei was able to reach Venerable level only because she was a natural talent! It’s a pity... that she was reverted back to her original form... Why were we so silly back then! To believe in the fancy words of those bastards!”
“I see!” Jun Mo Xie and Long Crane came to realization. No wonder this generation of Tian Fa Beast Kings were so weak. The root of the problem laid here!
“Luckily, you popped out at the crucial timing... Otherwise, if they plundered the entire Tian Fa when we weren’t around... Then Tian Fa Forest will really be done for good... How could we face all the ancestors of Tian Fa before us in the nether world...” Deer Chasing Wind said. He seemed even more pleased with Jun Mo Xie.
“You all have suffered.... great injuries and will not be around for long? Is it alright if I take a look?” Jun Mo Xie asked hesitantly.
“There’s no harm in letting you take a look, but... this is something that cannot be cured. We have long looked past life and death. But if we can choose not to die, who wouldn’t? Furthermore, now that Tian Fa has so many worries, if this bunch of old guys who served as the final barrier are gone, it’s difficult with just these few juniors...”
Deer Chasing Wind looked at Long Crane and the other Beast Kings with guilt and worry. Stretching his arm out without bearing much hope, he said, “The past three hundred and seventy five years, the seal has been eating away at us incessantly. Coupled with the impacts from that lunatic Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master, our internal organs are on the verge of collapsing, and our energy is completely exhausted. It’s hard for us to last long... and even mentally, we are on the verge of breaking down any moment... Other than waiting for death, what hope can the current us have....Hm? Ah!”
Saint Emperor Lu’s tone got more and more sorrowful as he spoke, but towards the end, he seemed to be on the verge of crying. But he suddenly exclaimed! He looked at Jun Mo Xie in complete disbelief, his entire body trembling...
