When Holy Daughter Yu Rou heard his words, the smile on her lips gradually disappeared. After a long time, she slowly said,
When we schemed at the Pipa Clan and gathered the power of belief in the musical instruments of Lucky Wind City for Ancient God Lakshmi’s use, it was sufficient to intimidate the other five ancient gods in the beginning.
Li Yunmu nodded his head. The result of the initial discussion was indeed that. Only a part of the ancient goddess’s soul remained, and it was hiding in the jade pipa. However, Liu Bailing became the new holy daughter of Pipa Clan, and her cultivation was only at initial sage realm. Even if she used the power of belief in the jade pipa, she could only reach the initial stage god realm.
By relying on a god’s strength, how could she intimidate five ancient gods?
Even if the ancient gods were injured, they were still ancient gods. Without any trump cards, it was impossible for a god to fight those surpassing their realm. If Ancient God Lakshmi appeared in front of the five gods with a god level cultivation, she was likely to be swallowed.
After recognizing that, they gathered the power of belief in Lakshmi City to allow the ancient goddess to possess ancient god level strength.
With the exception of Asura, no one else would know that only a part of ancient goddess’s soul remained.
This should have proceeded without a hitch. After all, the five ancient gods sensed her presence and descent from the divine palace to discuss dealings with Asura.
So what happened afterwards, was there any problem? The five ancient gods shouldn’t have noticed that only a part of ancient goddess’ soul remained. All the power of belief in Lakshmi City should’ve allowed her to attack ten times,
Li Yunmu said with a frown.
When Holy Daughter Yu Rou heard this, she sighed.
At first, they didn’t see through it. But we hadn’t thought that after the five ancient gods allied with our ancient goddess, they would also ally with Asura’s four descendants who wanted to turn on Asura secretly. However, that went…
Before she could finish speaking, Li Yunmu understood the general situation roughly. The five ancient gods were expert schemers. Although they allied themselves with the ancient goddess, they also colluded with the four ancestors in secret.
There was no trust among ancient gods. If they allied with the ancient goddess, then they would naturally get some benefits in killing Asura. But those benefits fell short of what the four ancestors could offer. If they cooperated with them to kill Asura, the small benefits offered by Ancient God Lakshmi would mean nothing to them.
Apart from that, the four ancestors were newly advanced ancient gods, so they were easy to control for the five ancient gods who had been existing since ancient times.
Everyone harbored their own nefarious designs. The four ancestors wanted to use the threat of the five ancient gods to force Asura to cooperate with them, but in the end, they were killed by him. It also resulted in the five ancient gods sensing the presence of Ancient God Lakshmi in Asura’s body, and they gained some understanding of what had happened.
But even if Lakshmi’s true situation was sensed by the five ancient gods, Little Bu said that she wanted to stroll around Lakshmi City. With her present, the five ancient gods should feel somewhat afraid. How could something still happen?
Li Yunmu asked with his brow creased.
Holy Daughter Yu Rou tucked her hair behind her ear and said with hesitation,
With Ancient Goddess Brunhilda present, the five ancient gods felt threatened. However, after they saw her, they said that they wanted to use her as an exchange condition. Only then would they ally to deal with Asura…
Yu Rou saw Li Yunmu’s complexion darken and sighed faintly. She had told him only part of the truth. There was another thing she hadn’t told him. The reason why she didn’t speak was because she was afraid that Li Yunmu would kill the envoys of those ancient gods after hearing it.
After a moment of silence, Li Yunmu saw that Yu Rou wanted to say something but was hesitating and calmly said,
Is there anything else that you aren’t telling me?
Yu Rou looked at Li Yunmu with a great war waging in her heart as she contemplated whether she should tell him or not. After thinking for a long while, she clenched her teeth and bit the bullet.
Ancient Goddess Brunhilda agreed and said that all the five ancient gods wanted her, but she was only one person. The five ancient gods thus dispatched envoys from divine palace for a martial competition. Whoever wins will have a round with her, and if they beat her, she will marry them.
When she finished, Li Yunmu’s eyebrows slightly shuddered. He was extremely furious. When he was in Asura CIty, Brunhilda was feeling bored so he let her come to Lakshmi City so that she could experience the style of the holy daughters and intimidate the five ancient gods in passing.
But who could have thought that after hearing it, his wife would set up a martial competition for the five gods with her marriage the prize for it. If he hadn’t come to Lakshmi City, who knew whether he would have even learned about this affair?
Damn those five ancient gods!
Li Yunmu snapped back to reality and looked at Holy Daughter Yu Rou with a face full of killing intent.
Where are the envoys dispatched by the five gods? I will kill them,
he said slowly.
Wait a moment, you cannot be impulsive! First calm down, you should see the ancient goddess before you do anything,
Holy Daughter Yu Rou said hastily.
She then turned around and advanced toward Lakshmi City. After walking a few meters, she glanced back and waved at Li Yunmu.
Suppressing the fury in his heart, Li Yunmu stepped forward and caught up with Yu Rou to walk toward Lakshmi City.
After entering it, Li Yunmu followed Holy Daughter Yu Rou. Whenever anyone from Lakshmi City saw her, a hint of astonishment would appear on their faces. They would kowtow on the ground, and a musical instrument would appear in their hands with which they would begin to play excitedly. For a moment, the entire street was filled with melodious tunes.
Is the position of holy daughter that high in Lakshmi City? Looking at the actions of Lakshmi City’s people, it seems like all of them want to serve you, holy daughter. It is quite different from Asura City.
While hearing the melodious tunes, the fury in Li Yunmu’s heart calmed a little.
Yu Rou looked at Lakshmi City’s people kowtowing on the ground, and a smile appeared on her face.
That is only natural,
he said with pride in her voice.
Only Lakshmi City in the entire Lanlou doesn’t place much importance on power of belief, so we don’t coerce people into having faith in us. No one in Lakshmi City is concerned about your bloodline. The only thing we pay attention to is honing your skill.
Because of this, Lakshmi City is different from the other six cities. We don’t differentiate between direct and branch family descendants.
Apart from this, every clan’s holy daughter doesn’t belong to the same family. Any clan member who wants to become a holy daughter can become one. They just need to have a good comprehension of the clan’s supreme treasure.
Li Yunmu nodded. Lakshmi City’s structure was indeed different from that of the other cities of Lanlou, or even the entire Origin World. It resembled one from Earth more. Everything in it depended on a person’s strength without any importance being placed on their bloodline.
As long as someone’s strength was sufficiently formidable, they would obtain authority. The criteria for becoming a holy daughter in Lakshmi City was the degree of comprehension of the clan’s supreme treasure, which was also kind of reasonable.
While walking, as long as Yu Rou passed by anyone, that person of Lakshmi City would immediately kowtow and begin performing with their musical instrument. It continued until they reached the center of Lakshmi City.
