Chapter 434

– To Win Through Diplomacy
On the platform was another golden platform where only gods were permitted to enter. From time to time, gods could be seen flying toward the golden platform, and they were all welcomed by a rainbow-colored ray, while the Qi Practitioners remained on the cloud platform.
Meanwhile, divine rays shone from the golden platform, painting the platform with vibrant colors, and although the godly aura did not leak out from the platform, just looking at the golden platform was already shocking enough.
The power that the Western Mother Empire possessed in the Kun Lun Realm was unimaginably deep! If the clan masters, headmasters, and high priests in the Ancestral Star were here, they might not even have the qualifications to enter the golden platform.
Zhong Yue was shocked to see that when compared to the Ancestral Star, there was an abundance of resources that were left behind by the gods that was incomparable to the Ancestral Star. The paragons of the Ancestral Star might not even be considered as someone powerful here.
But this was not because the Ancestral Star was weak. Whatever happened in the Ancestral Star was related to the huge figures that once appeared long ago; those strong individuals had stolen the land in the Ancestral Star to craft into a soul weapon. As a result, the amount of habitable land in the Ancestral Star was reduced from its formerly vast world to a tiny planet.
For example, the portion of the Ancestral Star’s land that Lord Xia had stolen and forged into the lesser void world was already far larger than the current Ancestral Star!
And this was not to mention the other gods that took portions of the Ancestral Star for themselves, making it their own possessions. Among them, there was the Fu Xi Clan’s Heavenly Emperor that buried himself in the Ancestral Star and took the most land from the Ancestral Star.
Even the Reincarnation Monarch had his emperor tomb built in the Ancestral Star, even seizing planets to place them around his tomb. Not only that, but the size of his tomb itself was much bigger than the lesser void world!
Just imagine how the Ancestral Star would look like if these stolen lands were returned to the Ancestral Star!
Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er searched around for the Qi Practitioners of Feng Clan, and they both kept wondering where the Feng Clan’s Qi Practitioners could be. Meanwhile, the eight Golden Hous were already gone from their vicinity.
The scenes they came across were, however, all very idyllic and beautiful. And so they continued searching for their target in peace while enjoying the view.
The Kun Lun Realm is indeed a paradise. No wonder Chi Xue was able to reach the Godlike Board and grab a high rank for herself.
Zhong Yue measured a luxurious-looking pillar, realizing that it was carved with various totem carvings that were seemingly left behind by some gods. He then praised,
There is some sort of advanced art hidden in this pillar, and the quality of the art is also something very rarely seen in our Ancestral Star.

Qiu Jin’er, who stood at the front of another pillar, suddenly exclaimed in happiness,
Senior martial brother, the totem carvings here are the wood spirit totem carvings!

Zhong Yue immediately walked towards that pillar and opened his divine third eye to examine the totem carvings. He then laughed,
Indeed, if you study it and learn the art hidden within the pillar, you will benefit greatly.

He then studied the totem carvings, and after a moment, he managed to get a grasp on the art, and he immediately taught it to Qiu Jin’er.
Qiu Jin’er was very happy, and she said again,
There are so many pillars here, can it be that there are arts hidden in every one of these pillars?

Immediately, Zhong Yue looked at the thousands of pillars standing everywhere, and he thought, Can it be that this place is actually a god-tier array? Strange, the more I look at it, the more this place feels like a portal to somewhere….
Suddenly, the sound of an explosion rang out as some skills clashed. Zhong Yue and Qiu Jin’er looked towards the direction of the sound, and they saw people on the cloud platform engaged in battle.
The battle was extremely violent as the skills that were cast were all unusually powerful. Each was strong enough to destroy mountains and evaporate rivers; the Qi Practitioners moved around the scene as they each charged at each other with Heavenly Dharma soul weapons.
This place was the Nacred Lake that had a supremely dense godly aura; thus, even the Heavenly Dharma and True Spirit level Qi Practitioners had part of their strength suppressed here. Therefore, although the parties fighting together were all powerful, the buildings around the Nacred Lake suffered no damage as the Qi Practitioners’ strengths were suppressed to the point where they posed no threat to the surroundings.
After all, this place was the heavenly palace from ages past.
Zhong Yue looked at the battle for a moment, and he suddenly saw a Golden Hou charge out from the battle, letting out a roar that was even louder than dragons,’ injuring many! However, this Golden Hou was immediately pulled back into the battlefield by a huge hand.

Those are the eight Golden Hous of Tian Wu God.

Qiu Jin’er’s expression changed slightly, and she asked,
What have they done? Why are there so many people attacking them?

There were almost 100 Qi Practitioners that attacked the eight Golden Hous, and Zhong Yue frowned immediately upon seeing this scene.

Senior martial brother?

Qiu Jin’er looked at Zhong Yue and said,
They might be a little mischievous, but they treated us nicely all the way here….

Zhong Yue then walked toward the front and said,
Let us have a taste of how strong the Qi Practitioners of the Kun Lun Realm are.

Qiu Jin’er quickly followed behind him in worry, and she softly said,
Senior martial brother, we should try to reason with them and avoid conflict.

Zhong Yue nodded and answered,
Don’t worry, I am not a violent person. I am always the type to try to solve problems with diplomacy first.

However, Qiu Jin’er, who knew his personality well, quickly tried to recall the time when Zhong Yue tried to do what he just claimed, and she realized that there hadn’t even been one instance of it.

Senior martial brother, are you sure about what you said?
The young lady probed.
Zhong Yue, however, did not reply, and as he walked toward the front, he realized that the Qi Practitioners surrounded the eight Golden Hous in the middle, hitting them until blood soaked their bodies. Among those who attacked the eight Golden Hous, there were a few that were at the peak of Heavenly Dharma attacking them as if it were a life and death battle rather than a friendly match.

Junior martial sister, stand aside and wait for me while I deal with this.

As soon as he asked Qiu Jin’er to stand aside, he suddenly charged into the battle like lightning, swung his sleeves that dragged the eight Golden Hous away. Just as the Qi Practitioners’ attacks were about to hit him, he dashed out from the battle and dodged them in the nick of time.
He entered and exited the battle so quickly that in a blink of an eye, he has saved the eight Golden Hous from being surrounded.

Gentlemen, why so serious?

Zhong Yue let the eight Golden Hous down before greeting the furious Qi Practitioners,
Can we all just back off and take a moment to relax?

The Qi Practitioners all surrounded them, and an old man with a horse head asked coldly,
Who are you?


I am Zhong Yue from Zhong Yue Clan,
replied Zhong Yue politely.

Never heard of it!

The old man then smirked and said,
You want to reason with me? Fine, these eight Golden Hous took their chance when I’m alone, and they broke my bones. How are you going to deal with this?

Upon hearing the question of the old man, the eight Golden Hous measured the old man, and they all said together,
Who are you? When did we attack you?

Just as the old man was about to say something, Tian Wuu raised up his furry paws, pointing at the old man and saying happily,
Oh oh! Don’t say, I think I remember now!

After a moment, Tian Wuu scratched his head and said awkwardly,
Who are you? We have beaten up too many people that I can’t remember you anymore.


I am Ma Zhengfeng, the disciple of the Horse King God! You injured me back then, and when my master went to seek an explanation from Tian Wu God, he protected the eight of you, so nothing ended up happening. Now, without him here to protect you, I will have my vengeance!

Suddenly, another cow-headed Qi Practitioner said angrily,
Do you all still remember when you went to the Bull God’s place, there was a guardian to a treasure who got tied up and interrogated by you? I am the guardian!

Another few more Qi Practitioners walked up, and one of them smirked as he said,
Do you still remember the Yu She Qi Practitioner that you knocked out in the spirit garden of Yu God?


You buggers roasted my master’s mount. That mount roasted is my senior martial brother, and he would have died if my master did not arrive in time!

More and more Qi Practitioners swarmed towards them, trapping them in the center, and Zhong Yue felt the onset of a migraine, It is really lucky for Tian Wu God that he is still alive now… Just how crazy can these Golden Hous get?
He then looked at the eight Golden Hous and asked,
Brothers, are you the ones who did what they said?


Which one of you remember what we did?
asked Tian Yi as he scratched his head.
The other seven immediately shook their head and replied innocently,
Of course not! We have done many things, who would still remember them?

Speechless, Zhong Yue looked at everyone around and said politely,
Dear senior martial brothers and senior martial sisters, please forgive them for what they have done. They never threatened your lives before, and today, I reckon that you have all gotten your revenge after injuring them so severely. How about we all move past this and be friends?

Qiu Jin’er was relieved as she thought in happiness, Senior martial brother really is trying hard not to resort to violence….
The horse-headed old man, however, refused,
Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to us like that, you nameless swine! Today, these eight brats must die here, and if you dare to spit out a word from your mouth again, we will also kill you!

The Yu She Qi Practitioner added on,
If you want us to move on just like that, you will have to earn it by fighting us!

Upon hearing their replies, Zhong Yue frowned and asked politely,
Is there no other way?


Easy, just take responsibilities for what happened,
replied a Qi Practitioner.

Is that so….

Zhong Yue suddenly unleashed his aura that intensified the atmosphere, turning into his giant Ming King form. He laughed and said,
You should have just started off with that then! I wasted so much time trying to reason with all of you! Qi Practitioners from the Kun Lun Realm, I have long wanted to fight with all of you!

Stunned, Qiu Jin’er murmured,
I thought senior martial brother wanted to reason everything out….
