Chapter 909: Battle Against Asura City
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Garuda looked at the completely empty palace hall with his hands behind his back. His lower body was tensed, his talons breaking the divine stones under his feet. The divine p.r.o.ng in Yaksha’s hand emitted a thick scent of blood, which solidified into faint red blood energy wafting through the air. The other three ancient G.o.ds also displayed their divine presence, and cracks began to spread in the s.p.a.ce around them.
The five ancient G.o.ds were truly furious. Compared to what they saw after returning, losing face in the Music Clan’s residence was simply an appetizer.
Face was very important, but life was even more important.
Asura had stolen Heavenly Grand Ritual, interrupting the recovery of the five ancient G.o.ds. After a.s.sa.s.sinating the yin son of heaven from beyond the heavens, he also pushed the trouble of it on the five ancient G.o.ds, which would create them an impossible-to-defeat enemy.
When the first battle of G.o.ds broke out, the five ancient G.o.ds had learned of the powers from beyond the heavens and emperor monarchs. Yin Emperor was one of them, and he already had a cultivation of master G.o.d at that time.
Upon coming to entice the five G.o.ds, yin son of heaven intentionally mentioned that Yin Emperor had already become a quasi true G.o.d.
As long as he advanced one step, he would become a true G.o.d.
What kind of existence was a true G.o.d? They could create their own Origin World. Yin Emperor who close to becoming a true G.o.d, so if he learned that his son had died in the divine palace, he would wipe out the five ancient G.o.ds with just the lift of his hand.
“What should we do now?” Yaksha asked in confusion.
Garuda turned around to look at the big palace hall and coldly said, “What else could we do! We must ally with Lakshmi City and go to battle against Asura City. Asura thinks that he has cut off our path of retreat, so let’s see who exactly will die first!”
“We came from Lakshmi City just now, and if we return, I am afraid that Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing will refuse to cooperate with us,” Indra said anxiously.
In his heart, he felt hatred toward himself for speaking ruthless words just then. Now that he recalled them, they were like a slap to his own face. Karmic retribution came way too quickly.
With his figure rapidly transforming, Vishnu slowly said, “The only option for us is to ally with Lakshmi City. That Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing walks the path of close quarter combat, and her strength is tyrannical. If she joins the five of us, Asura will die without a doubt. As long as he’s gone, the other power from beyond the heavens will have to collaborate with us if they want to occupy the Origin World.”
“Notify the subordinates, ask every city to prepare for battle and wait for negotiations between us and Lakshmi City to complete before marching toward Asura City.”
After a moment, the five ancient G.o.ds transmitted their commands to the five cities under them. In the five clans, the G.o.ds discussed the orders spiritedly and began to organize half G.o.d and above level experts for war.
The five ancient G.o.ds then descended with their main bodies from divine palace toward Lakshmi City while releasing vast and boundless divine presence.
When the twelve holy daughters sensed the presence of five ancient G.o.ds, smiles appeared on their faces. Sure enough, Brunhilda’s words were correct, the five ancient G.o.ds themselves came knocking on their door.
When Brunhilda sensed the presence of the five ancient G.o.ds, she went to the visitor hall and sat down on the host’s seat to calmly wait for them. After a few breaths, the figures of the five ancient G.o.ds appeared at the gate of the hall. Garuda landed at the front and slowly entered with a wooden expression.
“Have you five ancient G.o.ds come to find trouble for our Music Clan? Your souls just returned to the divine palace not long ago, but you five directly descended with your main bodies.”
Brunhilda waved her hand, indicating for the five ancient G.o.ds to take a seat.
Garuda looked at Brunhilda’s calm expression, then sat down on a seat on the opposite side in a flash. After that, both sides exchanged pleasantries.
When they had come to Lakshmi City before, which of the twelve holy daughters wasn’t respectful to them? After all, given the presence of an enemy like Asura, Lakshmi City could only ally with the five ancient G.o.ds.
The initiative had been in the hands of the five ancient G.o.ds, but because of Asura’s actions, the situation changed.
Garuda’s expression changed. Although his heart was itching, he kept a smile on his face. “Ha ha. When all five of us came together, can Ancient G.o.ddess Liu Qing not guess the reason?”
When Brunhilda hear his words, she shot a glance at the five ancient G.o.ds and said in an attempt to probe them, “Have you five ancient G.o.ds really come to my Lakshmi City to find trouble? You must know that even if you five attack together, Lakshmi City also has two ancient G.o.ds.
“Ancient G.o.ddess Lakshmi can pull one of you with her, and I also can bring one down with me. I wonder whether the five of you have thought about this properly, which two will be throwing their lives away?”
When she said that, the atmosphere in the hall turned delicate.
G.o.d s.h.i.+va sitting on one side looked at Brunhilda looking down on them and said calmly, “We five ancient G.o.ds didn’t come to Lakshmi City to find trouble, but for the original matter—to ally against Asura! Ancient G.o.ddess Lakshmi’s soul was stolen by Asura, so don’t you all want to s.n.a.t.c.h it back?”
“Precisely, we seven ancient G.o.ds were originally created by our master G.o.d and each of us received a part of his bloodline, so we can be considered as brothers and sister.
“However, Asura violated all laws of morality and devoured a part of Lakshmi’s soul, so we brothers naturally must a.s.sist her in this predicament,” Indra added from the side, completely forgetting about his arrogant actions on the platform stage just a moment ago. Naturally, the outsiders couldn’t tell what he was thinking in his heart.
The five ancient G.o.ds sealed their lips about the previously dispatched five G.o.d descendants as if the unpleasant matter hadn’t happened at all.
When Brunhilda heard their words, a smile appeared on her face, and she nodded in response. During her life in the Land of Ice, she had heard that the relations.h.i.+p between the G.o.ds of Lanlou was weak and that they shared no sentiments. The seven ancient G.o.ds used all sorts of plans and schemes against each other, not even shying away from sacrificing their descendant G.o.ds.
If any of them were given any importance, they were treated as the heirs. If they weren’t given importance, however, they were considered the same as mortals.
Yet the five ancient G.o.ds who were so cold-blooded had come running saying that Asura had violated all morality and they wanted to take justice for their younger sister Ancient G.o.ddess Lakshmi. Such words were just an enormous joke. If Brunhilda believed them, then no medicine in the world could save her.
If Heavenly Grand Ritual hadn’t gone missing and the yin son of heaven of beyond heavens hadn’t perished, the five ancient G.o.ds wouldn’t have come to Lakshmi City talking such words. But since they wanted to put on a play, Brunhilda would accompany them until the end.
“This is only natural. Asura has disregarded all the rules of Lanlou, even attacking Ancient G.o.ddess Lakshmi without warning. Our Lakshmi City naturally wouldn’t forget this. Since the five ancient G.o.ds are also thinking the same, then Lakshmi City will ally with you to deal with Asura,” Brunhilda slowly said.
After finis.h.i.+ng, she paused for a moment, then looked at the five ancient G.o.ds sitting opposite her and said with a smile, “But let’s have the ugly talk first. Do you five still have any conditions?”
“No additional conditions. This time we come with a sincere intention to deal with Asura,” the five ancient G.o.ds anxiously said.
