The Star Torrent Fortress formed of countless stars wandered around in the ancient universe; this was the place where the humans of the ancient universe lived. When Fu Li received Zhong Yue’s news, his initial joy was quickly replaced by concern,
Fuxi, the ancient universe is very big and if these little brats ran around, it’d be hard to locate them.


Worry not, I’ve already locked onto the Tiger Jiao Cavalry’s Karmic Lines. I will know their every movement. All you have to do is wait for my news. And…


Is Fu Shu still alive?

Fu Li smiled and replied,
Didn’t Fuxi want us to tie the loose ends? Of course he’s dead already, shame. I wanted to sell him off for a good price.


Strange, if he is dead, Xian Tian Palace should’ve known it already, after all, he is Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s disciple, which means that he has something like a crystal or soul lantern that can detect his life force. Now that he is dead, why did Imperial Emperor Xian Tian still send Mu Suge to rescue him?



Zhong Yue voiced out his puzzled mind, which Fu Li replied proudly,
Do you think we have no idea about his identity? We merely had him sent to the elder, who extracted his soul and wiped away his memories, cleansing him to the point that he is now a blank slate.

Zhong Yue figured it all out and he said,
Sell his soul to the innate demon god, Wu Dulang, tell him that his old enemy, Li Yang has reborn and is now serving under Imperial Emperor Xian Tian under the name Mister Yi. He is now being relied on heavily by Imperial Emperor Xian Tian! And now, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s son, Prince Mu Suge, is here in the ancient universe. I believe that you can sell these two pieces of news for a fair price.

Hearing his words, Fu Li was stunned for a second as he had no clue at all.
Zhong Yue cut away the connection and thought, Xian Tian Palace told Wu Dulang about this because they wanted to use him to pressure me. As long as I am not strong enough to withstand Wu Dulang’s wrath, I will have to rely on Xian Tian Palace and his master, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.

But now, Zhong Yue told Wu Dulang the news that he now served under Xian Tian Palace and the humans will profit from selling the information to Wu Dulang. At the same time, Wu Dulang will also immediately crush Fu Li’s soul and went looking for Mu Suge.
With that, the conflict between Xian Tian Palace and Wu Dulang became irreversible and if Wu Dulang wanted to deal with Zhong Yue, he had to first go through Xian Tian Palace.
King Zi Guang can use Wu Dulang against me and with the same reason, I can use him against Xian Tian Palace too.
Zhong Yue thought, King Zi Guang has used a double edge sword, it can injure an enemy but also hurt himself at the same time.

Ten days later, Mu Suge and Zhong Yue arrived at a sacred ground in the ancient universe. Mu Suge said,
Mister Yi, King Zi Guang has created a strategy for my father on conquering the ancient universe. The master of this sacred land is the He Luo Celestial Race, the He Luo Clan. Their clan master now is a Creator called Creator Luo Sheng. He is a powerful Creator and is a loyal follower of my father. With the Six Paths Reincarnation controlled by my father, he was reborn into the He Luo Clan and sneaked into the race. With his talent, he quickly rose as the leader after 5,000 years.

Zhong Yue looked towards the sacred land, where pure planets made of water floated and surrounded the sacred land. These planets formed a huge formation and guarded this place.


Among these planets lived the people of He Luo Clan, each with a fish head and ten fish bodies, making them appear extremely weird.
The He Luo Clan was a celestial race that lived in water; their body was a few miles long, hence, they lived in the water planets; these water planets had palaces underwater, each extremely luxurious and their sacred grounds were all ocean with their people living in the water.

I’ve notified Creator Luo Sheng and he will be with us soon. With his help, we will have a huge advantage in the ancient universe and we will not run into a lot of troubles.
said Mu Suge.
As they talked, a waterfall emerged from the sacred ground and the water flowed all the way towards them while ships sailed out of the sacred ground with a Creator leading the fleet. This Creator was the Creator Luo Sheng from the He Luo Clan.

Your Highness, please come in and take a rest. The journey was not an easy one I’d imagine,
said the Creator.
Zhong Yue and Mu Suge boarded the ship and when Zhong Yue looked around, he noticed that the gods from the He Luo Clan had fish face, eyes without eyelids, gill and they were all donned with scale armors.
Underneath their neck were ten bodies, ten pairs of feet with webbings, which were very strange looking.

Mister, let me introduce. This is Creator Luo Sheng.

The fleet headed straight back to the sacred ground while Mu Suge said,
Creator Luo Sheng, this is Mister Yi from we Xian Tian Palace.

Creator Luo Sheng bowed and greeted,
Greetings, Mister Yi. I’ve heard of your name for a long time.



Zhong Yue replied with a bow,
Senior Martial Brother Luo Sheng, there is someone under Heavenly Court named Heavenly King Yanshi Xi had followed us into the lower realm and she is now in the ancient universe. Do you happen to know her?


Heavenly King Yanshi Xi? I don’t think I do,
replied the Creator.

Then why are there so many Yanshi puppets around?

Before his voice even faded away, Zhong Yue acted. With a simple wave, a Heavenly Deity’s head fell from his neck but from the decapitated parts, there were crimson linings that connected the neck and head.
Crimson linings danced around, dragging the head back and reattached it back to the neck.
The Heavenly Deity turned his head for a few rounds and giggled,
Mister Yi, I don’t think I revealed anything odd and my disguise was perfect so how did you know?

Suddenly, the gods in the fleet turned their heads at the same time and said with different mouths but same tone,
How did you notice?

Mu Suge’s expression changed right away as the Creator right in front of him turned his head and said the same thing!
Meanwhile, in the He Luo Clan sacred ground, the gods turned towards the ship where the duo stood and voiced the same question.
At the same time, within the countless water planets, the people of the He Luo Clan emerged from the water and shouted!


Coldness engulfed Mu Suge as he felt his limbs were frozen for the entire He Luo Clan was infected and turned into puppets by Yanshi Xi!
If it wasn’t because of Zhong Yue, they’ve had entered deep into Yanshi Xi’s trap and there will be no escape!

Nice to meet you, you can call me Mister.

Zhong Yue replied calmly,
After boarding the ship, Mu Suge introduced you to me as he never informed you that I am with him. You and I never met each other before so it’s only natural for me to grow suspicious of you for knowing my identity.


So that’s how it is!

Crimson clouds emerged and swarmed towards them along with the countless gods in the fleet!
With a blink, Zhong Yue entered the light wheels behind Mu Suge’s head while Mu Suge rained chaos onto the puppet army, tearing limbs apart and cutting heads off. Meanwhile, with a scary expression, Creator Luo Sheng turned into a gigantic fish with ten bodies, opened up its jaws and swallowed the entire fleet with Mu Suge included.
Just as he swallowed Mu Suge, his skull burst apart before Mu Suge walked out and dashed away with lightning speed.
The hole in Creator Luo Sheng’s skull regenerated and with his tail swung around, he swam in the water quickly and chased after Mu Suge.
The ten tailed giant fish swarm in the ancient universe as if it was in the water and its speed was actually a little quicker than Mu Suge’s.


Mu Suge was in shock and anger and he fought as he backed off; suddenly, countless Dao totem patterns turned into a massive net and netted the fish Creator Luo Sheng turned into.
Zing—

Lights flashed across and suddenly, Creator Luo Sheng was sliced into pieces but that did not stop the enemy.
Behind Mu Suge, crimson linings slithered out from the fish pieces, merged together and turned into Creator Luo Sheng again but the time taken was already enough for Mu Suge to distance himself greatly.
How did Yanshi Xi know that this was the base of Xian Tian Palace?
…
Mu Suge ran away madly and after quite a long time, even as a Creator, he was out of breath and he could no longer sustain traveling at high speed for such a long time.
He stopped and shouted like a mad dog,
The spies we sent to Xian Tian Palace planted in the ancient universe are top secret. But Yanshi Xi was one step ahead of us. She wiped out the entire clan and knew that they are serving for Xian Tian Palace!

Zhong Yue on the other hand, walked out from the light wheels with a frown as he said,
Heaven Court must have sent spies into the ancient universe before Xian Tian Palace. My prince, seems like our journey will continue to be a difficult one.

Mu Suge lamented and said,
Fortunately, I still have you…. Not good!

His expression changed drastically as he exclaimed,
Di Wanhu ran into the wildmen’s Star Torrent Fortress and was abducted by them!

Mu Suge immediately whipped out totem pillars to contact the other captains from Tiger Jiao Cavalry only to realize that after these totem pillars lit up, nervous voices came sounding,
Your Highness, we’ve run into the wild humans and they are extremely powerful…. No!


We’re no match for them!


Your Highness, there are so many of them and they’re trying to sell us!


Your Highness!

Suddenly, the totem pillars shattered without a sign and this completely shook Mu Suge. His face turned pale and he stood there with an empty mind without knowing how to react.

I should’ve listened to you, Mister! Now, I’ve buried my army!

Despair consumed Mu Suge and he murmured,
Now what am I supposed to tell my father….


Victory and defeat is just a common friend in war. Don’t give up hope yet!

Zhong Yue comforted,
My prince, I suggest you listen to me since you are not familiarized with how things work here yet.

Mu Suge nodded and said,
I will listen to your words now without doing anything stupid.

Zhong Yue replied,
These humans demand only ransom. If wealth is what they’re asking for, then this will be an easy problem that can be solved with a snap. All we have to do is negotiate with them and give them the money they demanded. Perhaps, we can even hire them or have them served under Xian Tian Palace and that will be a huge credit for you.

Mu Suge’s eyes lit up right away and he exclaimed,
Brilliant idea, Mister! They are powerful and if we can have them serve us, I will gain even more favor from my father! But these humans are just not the type that will listen to anyone….

With a proud smile, Zhong Yue said confidently,
As long as they joined my Xian Tian Royal Guards, I will have my own ways to make them lower their heads and bow to me! The problem now is do you have enough fortune to make them yield?
