Chapter 396 - Celestial World General
Moon Palace!
Qin Family!
There were 2 hours ago. The place that the demon was locked up in was covered in demonic energy and it shocked everyone in the Qin Family.
The demonic energy covered half the moon and some cowards ran away. They brought their families into the teleportation formation to flee.
But some people stayed.
The young, some with courage, were praying for Qin Ming.
He had to wipe out this demon and allow the Qin Family to stabilize.
At noon, when Qin Ming walked out alone, everyone in the Qin Family was shocked.
Qin Ming walked out of the demonic energy. He was injured. No matter what, it looked like he had wiped out the demon.
Many Qin Family people walked out in shock and looked at Qin Ming respectfully.
"Greeting Emperor Qin Ming!" An old man knelt down with tears covering his face. His Qin Family finally had an emperor with a straight spine.
How could he not be emotional?
How could he not?
All of a sudden, everyone in the Qin Family knelt down and shouted for emperor Qin Ming.
Qin Ming wanted to say the truth but when he realized that everyone felt like he wiped out the demon, his mood changed entirely.
At the moment, Qin Ming wanted to mold the Qin Family"s spirit, so he didn"t mention that he had invited someone else to help.
He would allow this matter to improve the Qin Family"s spirit and brainwash them.
...
The Qin Family members were all emotional. Those who fled and wanted to return were all rejected. Those who left weren"t from the Qin Family anymore and had been kicked out of the family.
This helped to make the Qin Family closer to one another and they all worked hard to improve.
But all of this had nothing to do with the old man in the mausoleum.
After Li Xiandao wiped out the demon and solved the Qin Family"s problem, the old man changed.
The cherry blossoms in the mausoleum bloomed beautifully. They scattered and covered the ground in flower petals.
The old man stepped on them and walked around in a daze.
"The demon"s heart is unsealed and someone took it away. I have to report it." The old man muttered.
He was filled with hatred.
"But, I don"t want to." The old man stopped. He was at the entrance of the mausoleum and three miles from his wooden hut.
The blind and dead old man seemed like he could see everything now.
"100,000 years ago, the demon was split up by the Heaven Emperor because he was worried of the Head of the Demon World. So, he sealed him all around and sent a Celestial World warrior to guard him at each spot." The old man recalled his past.
He had been here for 100,000 years.
The celestial gate was opened. The Celestial suppressed his cultivation and controlled it at the peak of Nine Skies and Ten Lands to guard the moon and keep a lookout for the heart.
He had done this for 100,000 years.
The Celestial General didn"t want to do it anymore!
He had wasted 100,000 years just like that.
What was the point in guarding a demon"s heart?
He was a Celestial General and it was his destiny to die on the battlefield. But he didn"t get that chance over the past 100,000 years. Even when he wanted to return to the Celestial World, he was coldly rejected.
A few years ago, the Celestial General suppressed the demon"s heart and he didn"t have the ability to fight back.
But after the Celestial Gate was closed by Old Man Tianchi and people from Celestial World couldn"t come down easily, the Celestial General wasn"t able to receive news from Heaven Emperor anymore.
Slowly, he stopped suppressing the demon"s heart.
The demon started to destroy the formation and then those weak people from the Qin Family surrendered.
All of this started with him.
Every few thousand years, he would change bodies. Most of them would be old men that couldn"t live on. He would then ask to guard the mausoleum and stand there with a cold expression.
He couldn"t return to the Celestial World. Heaven Emperor was really strong and if he dared to disobey his orders, he would definitely die.
But the Celestial General was unwilling to waste his time here. So, he worked hard to improve and also waited for the demon to unseal and cause trouble in the Nine Skies and Ten Lands. He wanted him to surge up to the Celestial World.
Then, he could enter the Celestial World, reject his past ident.i.ty, and start anew.
The only problem with this plan was time. It would take a really long time.
But now, this plan was spoiled by Li Xiandao.
Or rather, the Celestial General didn"t expect someone as strong as Li Xiandao to suppress the demon heart.
The demon"s heart was taken by Li Xiandao and the Heaven Emperor didn"t know about it. But the demon"s main body definitely knew and would come to the Nine Skies and Ten Lands to cause trouble.
The Celestial Gate would be reopened and he could sneak back up.
"I need to leave and find the past me." Celestial General"s eyes shone brightly. He stepped out and his body glowed brightly.
Deaf and blind, his limp body fell to the ground. A Celestial General dressed in armor and holding a spear appeared.
The difference was that the Celestial General was old and was nearing the end of his life.
Even Celestials found it hard to live for more than 100,000 years.
The Celestial General only had 1,000 years of lifespan left.
He was old.
"Heaven Emperor"s order caused me to waste 100,000 years here for nothing." Celestial General gritted his teeth in hatred.
100,000 years later, he was still at that realm but he only had 1,000 years left.
Life was just so tragic.
"Heaven Emperor high above never thought about me. In his eyes, I am just a chess piece and I shouldn"t have my own mind and thinking." Celestial General raised his head with grievance and looked at deep s.p.a.ce.
Above the Nine Skies was the Celestial World.
As long as he used his full strength, he could fly into the Celestial World.
But the old Celestial General didn"t dare to.
He suppressed his cultivation too much, so the lightning tribulation was definitely really terrifying. With his current situation, he definitely wouldn"t be able to handle it.
He had to increase the strength of his body.
But how?
Celestial General was confused. The only thing he looked forward to was for the demon to be furious and for the other parts to break free. Then, he would come to the Nine Skies and Ten Lands to stir trouble, allowing people from Celestial World to come down to the lower worlds.
By sneaking around, he would pa.s.s the Celestial Tunnel and enter the Celestial World without needing to go through the tribulation.
But, could this wish be fulfilled in 1,000 years?
Celestial General started to suspect...
Could he wait until that time?
Apart from that, did he have any other choice?
Weng weng weng!
A red watch appeared in front of the Celestial General.
The red glow seemed so devilish that it instantly attracted his gaze.
