Chapter 877: Pa.s.s Like Thunder and Move Like the Wind


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


The four clan patriarchs didn’t open their mouths about Luo Jue. They knew that the sixth ancestor had agreed to go to resource lands precisely in order to kill him. Chen Xiu was not an idiot, so he understood the intentions of the four. If he hadn’t agreed to go to the resource lands, then the four clan patriarchs and other G.o.ds would have joined hands right there and then to kill him.


Everyone was already clear about the relation between the two sides; they just didn’t want to bring it to the surface. Under such circ.u.mstances, Luo Jue, the direct descendant who had offended Chen Xiu was already dead in the eyes of the four patriarchs. It was next to impossible to save him. After all, if any one of them opened their mouth, they would not receive a polite decline, but rather be ridiculed.


Li Yunmu looked at Luo Shen’s painful expression, and a smile appeared on his face. He waved his hand and said, “Kill.”


After hearing his words, Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d and Rat sneered coldly. Divine power surged in their hands before attacking Luo Jue, who was covered in blood. As the threads of divine energy entered his body, Luo Jue, who was half-kneeling on the ground, glanced at Luo Shen, then turned into ashes and dissipated in the wind.


Pa.s.s Like Thunder and Move Like the Wind was an attack which left Luo Shen rooted on the spot with wide eyes.


“Asura City’s rules cannot be broken, and Luo Jue injured the envoys I dispatched. In order to rescue these two, I had to use two portions of power of belief and turn them into G.o.ds.


“On top of that, after repeated torture, he was left at his last breath. The four clans are lacking power of belief, and you are only a G.o.d, so it is impossible for you to bring out a portion of power of belief to help him become a G.o.d.


“Instead, it is better if I helped you to quickly deal with the trouble that was Luo Jue.”


After saying that, Li Yunmu calmly looked at Luo Shen. After seeing his only son die in front of him, Luo Shen didn’t have any reaction. It looked as if he had lost his soul.


After a long time, Luo Shen’s eyes narrowed, and he erupted with divine power.


“I will kill you!” he shouted out loudly.


Luo Shen’s hands instantly expanded and rushed to attack Li Yunmu. The next instant, Luo Shen, who had a sinister expression, lost consciousness and fell on the ground. Behind him, Rahu Clan’s patriarch pulled back his left hand.


“Sixth ancestor, I haven’t disciplined him properly,” he said respectfully. “After returning, I will certainly punish him. Let’s go, help elder Luo Shen. We will return to the clan.”


The four clan patriarchs turned around and left the house with two elders carrying the unconscious Luo Shen. The entire house returned to silence once they left.


Madam and Do Mingyan heaved a sigh of relief in their heart. Both of them looked at Li Yunmu before anxiously saying, “Lord ancestor, why did you agree with the four clan patriarchs about going to the resource lands for a check-up? Given the large distance, the four clan patriarchs will certainly dispatch people to kill you.”


“Yes, lord. You heard Jiao Xiu’s words just now—he certainly wants your distinguished self to leave. It is in order to deal with you on the way. You mustn’t fall in their trap, but if you go then I and Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d will follow you,” Rat said nervously.


Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d, who stood next to him, also agreed.


Li Yunmu stretched his muscles and said with a smile, “If I hadn’t agreed just now, the four clan patriarchs and those G.o.ds would’ve attacked us. We wouldn’t have been able to fight so many G.o.ds. From the beginning, I have received word from G.o.d father that the four clans would become restless. Especially now, when G.o.d father is in seclusion and cannot pay attention to the matters of Asura City.


“Although I can be considered a G.o.d and am also the sixth ancestor of Asura City, my foundation isn’t stable, so I have to scheme. When the four clan patriarchs raised the condition to exchange the power of belief previously, I saw through their intentions. Rather than being killed by them directly, it would be better if I personally entered their trap. Then, in the trap, who will kill whom will have to be seen.”


After his explanation, everyone’s worries decreased greatly, because Li Yunmu’s words hinted that G.o.d father had given him something to rely on before entering seclusion. With G.o.d father giving him some sort of trump card, the four clans couldn’t be considered as something great.


“Alright, wait until construction starts in lower city, I will leave then. While I am gone, Rat will manage the Ground Clan’s territory. Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d and you two will support him. Before I return, you must manage Ground Clan properly. If necessary, you can appear to be a little vulnerable. After I return, I will settle the debt with the four clans.”


“Yes, lord.”


Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d naturally had no objections to Rat wielding the power. After all, they were acquainted from lower city so they knew each other’s strong points. Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d had great strength, while Rat was an expert in scheming because of his active brain. As for Madam and Do Mingyan, they had only recently entered the Ground Clan.


No one had any complaints.


Since Rat was a G.o.d, even if he was a fake G.o.d, he was still enough to suppress the two half G.o.d experts.


Li Yunmu raised his head to look at Asura City’s sky, and a cold smile appeared on his face. The four clans had threatened him to leave the city and even found a good reason to force him to go.


If he had gone out as a sixth ancestor without any reason, Ashbi and the four great clans would have been suspicious. After all, Lanlou was quite troubled, and if an ancestor of the clan suddenly went out, the four great clans and Ashbi would wonder as to what was going on.


On the path leading to the upper city where no living being could be seen, the four clan patriarchs were walking shoulder to shoulder with a hint of a smile on their faces. Who could’ve had expected that forcing Chen Xiu would be so easy? Every time they talked with him before, Chen Xiu had berated them verbally by relying on his status as ancestor, which was like a difference between heaven and earth compared to what happened this time.


Also, even if he relied on his status as ancestor, so what? It would be useless anyway. After losing his only backer, G.o.d father, if he wanted to contend against the four great clans with their profound foundation, wouldn’t it be like an egg striking a stone?


From the time G.o.d father created the four great clans to present, the number of G.o.ds in Elder Council has reached hundreds. They had only brought a few G.o.ds from each clan, and Chen Xiu already pulled in his rampant arrogance and learned his place.


Doro Clan’s patriarch turned around and enquired. “You all, Chen Xiu agreed quite easily, so do you think that he has any trump card given by G.o.d father which makes him feel secure?”


Next to him, Rahu Clan’s patriarch smiled disdainfully and said, “What trump card can he have? Even if G.o.d father provided him with one, just wait until he goes out of the city. With the amount of G.o.d elders dispatched by us, Chen Xiu is certain to die. Moreover, if he hadn’t agreed to go, he would’ve died in that house right there and then.”


“Precisely, he is only a branch family descendant. Let’s see what sort of resistance he can put up under such circ.u.mstances, where he can only do as he’s told obediently. But the cultivation method which uses demonic energy that he was imparted by G.o.d father really makes me envy him.”


Deva Clan’s matriarch smiled. When she mentioned the cultivation method, her phoenix-like eyes began to s.h.i.+ne.


The usage of power of belief was prevalent through Lanlou, and all four clans walked the path of relying on their bloodline ability. They rarely cultivated other martial arts or divine skills. But the cultivation method which condensed demonic energy allowed Chen Xiu’s strength to increase greatly, which made it clear that it was something good.


If they could steal it from him, their strength would double at the least.
