Chapter 884: Destiny of the Tian Xuan Land
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Saber Beard was trapped by the nine Golem Puppets and Qin Wushuang kept attacking him with the Ying Yang Nature Blade without holding back. This caused Saber Beard to be in a compromising situation as he could not fend for himself easily.
Under such a powerful siege, regardless of having divine skills, Saber Beard could not turn the tide. He could only retreat again and again. He knew that if he were to make a mistake, he would die at this Aspiring Throne Mountain.
With a long hiss, suddenly a burst of strange blue light spilled from Saber Beard’s body. A layer of blue light wrapped his entire body. On the surface, countless star-like words dazzled and swirled around his body.
At this moment, Saber Beard muttered the words, “Dark sky for yellow earth, boundless desolate universe. Please Master, I pledge to you, Greedy Wolf…”
Before he finished speaking this trail of strange words, Saber Beard transformed into a blue light. Ignoring the rules of s.p.a.ce directly, he disappeared without a trace.
For this turn of events, not only was Qin Wushuang dumbstruck, even those elite warriors that eyed Saber Beard covetously did not react.
“He’s gone?” Bao Bao was still feeling confused.
Qin Wushuang’s face was slightly solemn. He looked at the place where the blue light disappeared coldly. Then, he put away the nine Golem Puppets. After he stood for a moment, he nodded thoughtfully.
This blue light escape skill was similar to the Heaven Escape Book he used. It was a powerful divine skill that could open up a hollow path and allow one to escape without a trace.
This was only possible with the use of s.p.a.ce rules.
The Heaven Escape Book was an item from the Seven Deadly Arrays Formation. Per Qin Wushuang’s speculation, the master of the Seven Deadly Arrays Formation was definitely not from the Tian Xuan Land. Therefore, most likely the Heaven Escape Book had not come from the Tian Xuan Land. It was not because elite warriors of the Tian Xuan Land did not know how to use s.p.a.ce items, but they would never be this formidable.
“Boss, what’s going on? That Saber Beard is weird.” Even for someone as coa.r.s.e as Bao Bao, he felt something was wrong.
“This divine beast Saber Beard comes from a strange background. I don’t know the background of the Master he spoke of!” Qin Wushuang was somewhat worried, yet he did not reveal it too much.
Qin Wushuang was a person with strong instincts. After Saber Beard’s strange performance, vividly, he felt he must have an extraordinary background. He clearly had the goal to have access to the G.o.d Discarding Door. Just who is he?
Totem clan?
Judging from how he acted, clearly he did not seem to work for the totem clan. If he did, it would have been unnecessary for him to take this roundabout way, to seek a spot from the Qin Clan to enter the G.o.d Discarding Door.
If he did not belong to the totem powerhouse, it appeared stranger.
The most elite within the Tian Xuan Land were the totem powerhouses, along with some super elite warriors in seclusion. Could the master of Saber Beard be one of those secluded elite warriors, someone like Li Buyi?
Qin Wushuang only felt confused, yet he stopped thinking about it.
Now, he was even suspicious whether that Saber Beard came to him for the G.o.d Discarding Door or for the Seven Deadly Arrays Formation.
Through the battle with Saber Beard, when the other six Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates learned he was the one that destroyed the Xin Clan, they were somewhat in a panic. Although they knew that it was most likely an excuse made by Qin Wushuang to denounce him as the spy from Southern Border, they still restrained their fear to this strange divine beast.
“Everyone, this Saber Beard comes from a strange background. Due to his great ambitions, I will report it to the totem clan and ask them to make a decision.”
“Yes, yes. I don’t think this Saber Beard is a good one, he also just used Xin Tianwen.”
“Yes, for such a mysterious ferocious beast, we must be more cautious.”
“Ha ha, your majesty, with the Xin Clan destroyed, how will you take care of the extra spot?”
Qin Wushuang said lightly, “We will discuss it later, I will head to the totem clan first.”
Being the Heavenly Emperor, naturally he was qualified to directly speak to the Xuan Yuan totem clan. Although he was not exactly friendly with the Xuan Yuan Clan, casting the awkwardness aside, they must still look at the general situation.
Qin Wushuang was not a person disregarding the general situation.
Indeed, Xuan Yuan Clan was not happy with Qin Wushuang. In the past, those who dared to defy the totem paramount elite warrior would be killed on the spot.
However, this Qin Wushuang had Li Buyi supporting him. The totem clan endured him as they refrained from shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vase. Upon hearing that Qin Wushuang was asking to see them, since Li Buyi was no longer at the Xuan Yuan Mound, they wanted to use this chance to humiliate him.
Unexpectedly, Qin Wushuang did not even give them the opportunity. Straightforwardly, he told them the situation: Saber Beard annihilated the entire Xin Clan!
This information was so loud that even the deaf would be aroused. This news caused Xuan Yuan Yang to feel a burst of dryness in his mouth. The multiple strange performances of Saber Beard at the Aspiring Throne Mountain, caused Xuan Yuan Yang to feel especially apprehensive.
Frowning slightly, Xuan Yuan Yang only said after thinking for a while, “Qin Wushuang, you did well on this matter. Too bad you let Saber Beard run away. This divine beast has stayed in my Xuan Yuan Mound for a few thousand years. I always found him strange. Unexpectedly, he did have a master.”
Since Qin Wushuang already sent the message, it would be the business of the Xuan Yuan Clan to take care of it. Under such circ.u.mstances, of course he would not ask too much, to avoid making too much trouble.
Yet Xuan Yuan Ba asked, “Chief, who do you think is the person behind the scene? Will it be the Fire G.o.d Clan of the Southern Border? Or the Farmer’s G.o.d Clan?”
Xuan Yuan Yang slowly shook his head. “Neither. The two totem clans of the Southern Border also have many spots to enter the G.o.d Discarding Door. It’s unreasonable for them to seek a spot from the Xuan Yuan Mound. I doubt this Saber Beard is a subordinate of a totem clan, but something else.”
Qin Wushuang could not help but feel somewhat impressed. This judgment happened to be in the same view as him. Often heroes would view things with the same perspective.
“Not from a totem clan?” Xuan Yuan Wei was somewhat confused. “Besides the totem clans, who can order him? Also, who is that bold to go against the totem clan?”
Xuan Yuan Ba said with a bitter smile, “It wouldn’t be one of those Controllers, right?”
“Impossible. Controllers govern everything at the Tian Xuan Land. There is no need for them to do such boring things,” Xuan Yuan Yang said with a wry smile.
Without a possible answer, everyone was truly confused.
Upon hearing their conversation, he was lost in thought, yet he was well aware of the situation and did not give his opinion. He would seek advice from Senior Li Buyi of his doubts.
“Qin Wushuang, you will go back to the Aspiring Throne Mountain. Rule the Heavenly Emperor Mountain well. Through this internal compet.i.tion, the power of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain is greatly reduced, you must strengthen your power.”
This time, Xuan Yuan Yang did not mention the old matter. Instead, he encouraged him.
Of course, Qin Wushuang knew his place as he agreed before departing.
As soon as people of the Xuan Yuan Clan saw Qin Wushuang leave, their expressions became different.
“Head Chief, will this Qin Wushuang make up lies to intimidate the totem clan?” Xuan Yuan Xiao was the first one to issue his question.
Xuan Yuan Wei agreed. “That’s right, this Qin Wushuang even dared to provoke you. I think it’s possible for him to make up lies.”
Xuan Yuan Ba said with a bitter smile, “I don’t think this kid would make up lies intentionally. I observed this kid, he’s rather proud. He would not lie without a cause. Besides, if he were lying, the Yun Clan and Great Second Gate would not do it with him.”
Xuan Yuan Yang nodded slowly. “Junior Brother Ba is right, Qin Wushuang is not lying about this matter. If there is any overstatement, he would surely gossip and meddle. However, he remained silent after telling us. Clearly, he did not wish to be overly concerned about this matter. Instead, he plans to throw this hot potato to us.”
“This kid is cunning!” Xuan Yuan Wei said angrily. “If Li Buyi weren’t supporting him, I’d truly abolish his Heavenly Emperor status.”
Xuan Yuan Yang said coldly, “Humph, when an accomplished young hero does not know how to exercise restraint, something will happen to him. Too much of a cutting edge will likely have him get jealous by the G.o.ds. The G.o.d Discarding Door is a narrow escape. The prouder he is, the more miserable he will die. Since ancient times, has the Tian Xuan Land ever had less prodigies? After the G.o.d Discarding Door opened, most of those proud and arrogant prodigies did not have a happy ending!”
Xuan Yuan Ba said with concern, “Head Chief, judging from Li Buyi’s tone, it seems the situation at the Tian Xuan Land is not going well.”
When everyone heard these words, they were all apprehensive as their expressions became solemn. Compared to the matters mentioned by Li Buyi, those trivial matters of Qin Wushuang were not worth mentioning.
Xuan Yuan Yang gave a long sigh. “Now the Tian Xuan Land is truly a muddled place. Internally, we have the troublemaker, Golden Crow. Externally, we have the foreign clans eyeing us covetously. For thousands of years of inheritance, will the Tian Xuan Land fall into the hands of foreign clans?”
As the paramount totem elite warrior, at any moment, Xuan Yuan Yang was always prepared. With awe-inspiring authority in hand, he was insufferably arrogant.
Yet now, his tone was extremely desolate and filled with helpless despair.
The other totem elite warriors were full of fear. Xuan Yuan Ba could not refrain from asking, “Head Chief, are those Controllers not working hard all the time? Could it be they are left without an option?”
Despite how the totem clan appeared high and mighty at the Tian Xuan Land, at this moment, their fear was no less than anyone in the secular world.
“Don’t think too much. Concentrate, and wait for the G.o.d Discarding Door to open. If we have a special fortuitous opportunity this time, perhaps there will be a change to the fate of the Tian Xuan Land. Then, we shall see how it goes!”
Xuan Yuan Yang revealed a forceful smile and instructed, “All of you must guard your door. I must go to the Endless Eastern Sea, it’s my turn. That Golden Crow is truly vicious. If Li Buyi and the others step in, perhaps they can restrain it!”
Suddenly, Xuan Yuan Ba said, “Head Chief, do you think that Saber Beard is related to the Golden Crow? Hasn’t the background of that Golden Crow always been a mystery?”
A strange light flashed across Xuan Yuan Yang’s eyes as he revealed a thoughtful look. He never thought about this question. Xuan Yuan Ba’s words. .h.i.t the target and placed this possibility before him. It was worth thinking about.
Golden Crow, Saber Beard?
Were they related? Once again, Xuan Yuan Yang frowned.
