Chapter 1635 - Returning to the Headquarters
Mu Yao’s expression turned bright. But the contents of the jade sword message caused him to feel conflicted. The jade sword message was sent by Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai told him that there’s no longer need to worry about the Buddhist Realm. The enmity has been taken care of.
Mu Yao didn’t think that Zhao Hai would send the message this soon. Moreover, he even stated that the enmity has been quenched!
If he didn’t know Zhao Hai, Mu Yao might think that Zhao Hai was making a joke. But this was impossible.
Seeing Mu Yao’s silly expression as he stood there motionlessly, Zong Ze thought that he received bad news. He couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong?” As he said that, he received the jade sword message from Mu Yao’s hand and then scanned it with his spiritual force.
After reading the contents inside the jade sword, Zong Ze was also stunned. He looked at Mu Yao and said, “Is this real? How did that kid do it?”
Mu Yao smiled bitterly and said, “Who knows what methods that kid has. It seems like he hasn’t shown his real strength before. The Buddhist Realm really provoked him. But I must say, the kid is strong. I also know how he did it.”
Zong Ze smiled bitterly and said, “Alright, let’s stop talking about that. Let’s think about what we do next.”
Mu Yao sneered and said, “What else should we do? We’ll go deal with those who dared to rob our Hundred Treasures Realm. I think they have lived long enough. Since Little Hai says so, then the Buddhist Realm will be dealt with soon. When the time comes, even if they want to cry, they wouldn’t be able to.”
Zong Ze’s eyes lit up, “This is a good opportunity. Even if we can’t deal with the Five Great Realms, we can at least deal with the smaller realms. At that time, the only people left in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield will be the new Great Realms.”
Mu Yao actually wasn’t feeling very good deep inside. His disciple has been killed. Mu Yu was like a son to him. But in the end, Mu Yao was someone who went through a lot of storms. Moreover, he had the same att.i.tude as Mu Yu, placing the Hundred Treasures Realm first. It can be said that Mu Yu was heavily influenced by Mu Yao.
It was because of this personality that Mu Yao was able to make the proper decisions for the realm. So after thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, “This is a good opportunity. Little Hai will not joke about these things. Since he said that there’s no need to worry about the Buddhist Realm, then we no longer need to worry about them. Let’s arrange 100 thousand people to meet Little Hai, the rest will immediately go back to the headquarters.”
Zong Ze nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll take care of it.” Soon after, the fleet was divided into two. The majority went back to the headquarters while the other half continued on.
The Buddhist Realm has been basically dealt with. With Lao Na’s death, there’s nothing the Buddhist Realm can do against Zhao Hai. The situation in the Buddhist Realm itself was much worse. The people were faced with terrifying bugs that didn’t know fear. They didn’t even have the chance to resist.
However, Zhao Hai didn’t allow the bugs to eat the people of the Buddhist Realm. Although he wanted to do it, he didn’t. This wasn’t to say that he pitied them. In fact, Zhao Hai has no pity for these people. The reason he didn’t let the bugs eat the Buddhists was because he wanted to leave their bodies as a lesson to other people. Corpses were more shocking than being eaten by the bug race. These bugs were ravenous, they wouldn’t leave anything behind, not even bone shards would be left.
Naturally, Zhao Hai wasn’t polite. All those with strength in the Buddhist Realm were killed. The Buddhist Realm would soon become part of the Hundred Treasures Realm. He can make others go take a look, but they would occupy it later on.
Looking at the people in the Buddhist Realm headquarters putting up a last-ditch effort, Zhao Hai let out a long breath. He knew clearly that after this, n.o.body in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield would dare annoy him. Not just him, n.o.body would offend the Hundred Treasures Realm.
Zhao Hai didn’t know what the people of the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield would think after seeing his action. But one thing was for certain, after seeing his strength, these people wouldn’t be able to sit still.
Zhao Hai also knows what was happening to the Hundred Treasures Realm headquarters. However, he wasn’t worried. In his opinion, these high-grade realms were jumping clowns, simply not worth being treated seriously. After dealing with the Buddhist Realm, he can just directly swallow them.
Zhao Hai was also aware of Mu Yao and Zong Ze saying that the Hundred Treasures Realm would become one of the Five Great Realms. However, they seem to have no ambition of unifying the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. Zhao Hai could understand this. In fact, Zhao Hai no longer has any interest in the battlefield. The level of the battlefield was now quite low for him. There’s nothing there that could help him become stronger. Now he wanted to know if there was another realm outside the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield.
As for the group from the Hundred Treasures Realm that were heading over, Zhao Hai wasn’t worried about them. Besides the Buddhist Realm headquarters ,the other places have been attacked by beasts. After clas.h.i.+ng with the beasts, the subordinate realms found that they couldn’t do anything and gave up. They understood that these beasts were controlled by someone and weren’t wild beasts. This meant that someone was targeting the Buddhist Realm.
These subordinate realms also wanted to see who the people that attacked the Buddhist Realm were. Therefore, thoughts of rebelling slowly disappeared from their minds. To these subordinate realms, loyalty was merely a word. Their highest priority was still their own realms.
Zhao Hai took two days to take care of the Buddhist Realm. In other words, he took two days to completely eliminate the Buddhist Realm. Nothing remained.
Regarding this matter, Zhao Hai wasn’t bothered at all. This wasn’t the first time he did something like this.
Two days later, the group from the Hundred Treasures Realm also arrived at the headquarters of the Buddhist Realm. But when they arrived, they discovered that the headquarters was completely empty.
The one at the lead was an Immortal Elder. Zhao Hai saw this person before. He was nicknamed Mourning Soul Nail, due to his nail weapons. His nail artifact contains deadly poison that could directly paralyze Severed Soul Experts.
Since he’s at the Immortal Stage, his strength was naturally formidable. His reputation was quite resounding in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield.
In the past, this Immortal Elder was quite arrogant. But after seeing Zhao Hai, he became humble. This was because Zhao Hai was the only person in sight. He was sitting in the headquarters of the Buddhist Realm. Even a ghost was nowhere in sight.
The surroundings were so silent that people could hear their heartbeat. Fortunately, there were a lot of people in this group. Although they were disturbed, they were also excited.
The Buddhist Realm was one of the Five Great Realms of the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. For many years, realms like the Hundred Treasures Realm had to lower their heads in front of these Five Great Realms. The people of the Five Great Realms always carried themselves with arrogance, looking at the others as though they were lower-cla.s.s people.
This kind of mentality doesn’t only involve the Five Great Realms, it includes the people from the Land of Chaos. The cultivators in the Land of Chaos always lowered themselves when they encountered people from the Five Great Realms. This was also the reason why the Buddhist Realm decided to take action against Mu Yu.
Because of the status quo, the people from the Buddhist Realm treated the Hundred Treasures Realm as a lower realm. In their minds, the Great Realms control the lower realms. If the lower realms don’t want to hand something over, then the Five Great Realms can kill their people in order to scare them. They simply didn’t expect that the Hundred Treasures Realm was different from the past.
The Hundred Treasures Realm have been doing very well lately. Therefore, the mentality of the people of the Hundred Treasures Realm has changed. Nevertheless, they could still feel some pressure when faced against the Five Great Realms.
But now? These people from the lower realms stood in the headquarters of a Great Realm. And this headquarters has been completely destroyed. Not a single living being could be seen. This caused the cultivators of the Hundred Treasures Realm to feel good deep inside.
Although these people knew that something happened back at the headquarters, they didn’t worry too much. Zhao Hai was able to deal with the Buddhist Realm, these high-grade realms were nothing. Even the people from the subordinate realms who were with the group had no intentions to return. On the contrary, they became more confident in the Hundred Treasures Realm.
Mourning Soul Nail went to see Zhao Hai alone. When he flew towards the headquarters, he saw Zhao Hai sitting down with two jars of wine in front of him. Zhao Hai held a gla.s.s of wine in his hand and then poured some liquor on the ground.
Mourning Soul Nail couldn’t help but sigh. Everyone in the Hundred Treasures Realm knew that Zhao Hai and Mu Yu were good friends. But because of Zhao Hai’s matter, Mu Yu was killed. It’s natural that Zhao Hai was feeling very badly about the situation. Mourning Soul Nail couldn’t help but comfort him. “Little Hai, don’t take it too hard. There’s still a lot of things to do.”
Zhao Hai turned his head and said, “Elder Li, don’t worry, I’m fine. Did the realm send any orders?”
Elder Li immediately replied, “The headquarters is being occupied. Elder Mu and Elder Zong returned upon receiving your message. They sent us over to support you. But now it seems like we’re not needed here. I’ll prepare some people to defend this place while the rest will return to help the headquarters.”
Zhao Hai thought for a moment and said, “Elder Li, to be honest, there’s no point leaving people here. Leave the headquarters to me. Instead of defending this place, you should just go around and absorb the Buddhist Realm’s subordinates. Don’t leave people here to defend. Have the other realms come and see this place.”
