Asura City followed the principles of natural selection and survival of the fittest.
Those with pure bloodline could become direct descendants and live with majesty in the upper region of Asura City and even become gods in time. They were unlike branch descendants, who had a ceiling of half god on their cultivation. If the branch descendants wanted to climb up and become direct disciples, they could only grab every opportunity to advance.
Just like a bit earlier when Asura City had issued two missions. One was to pretend to be Lakshmi City’s soldiers and massacre mortals so that the survivors would develop disgust toward their old god and become more receptive toward a new one. The second was to search and capture the remaining part of Ancient God Lakshmi’s soul, which would present them with the opportunity to become a god.
Chen Xiu had accepted the two missions to obtain the chance to become a god. As long as he could do it, he would be able to live with dignity in Asura City.
Yes, everything I did previously was to obtain this chance. As long as I become a god, I will become a direct descendant of Morrow Clan and will have the qualifications to fight for the position of Patriarch.
Back then, I was also ready to accept the worst outcome—death. After all, all my subordinates were hired from the guilds, so their strength naturally couldn’t compare to the branch descendants of the four great clans.
After speaking up to there, Chen Xiu went silent for a moment and looked at the barely discernible white wall in the distance. His gaze seemed to penetrate through the bone and see across the middle city region.
After a moment, he continued to speak.
Moreover, the four young masters had the treasures of their clans which could raise their strength to god realm. Even if I struggled, I would’ve faced a dead-end, having no way to move forward. Yet I still wanted to struggle, to rise above others despite lack of success meaning death.
Chen Xiu went silent after saying that, and Brunhilda and Li Yunmu also did not say anything either. Compared to Chen Xiu, who was a branch descendant in Asura City’s harsh environment, their circumstances were different. One was born as a god and gradually rose to become an ancient god, while the other one was born in a lower plane but had relied on the system to become a god and the master of two regions.
As long as the master gods did not return, Li Yunmu was the most formidable expert in the Origin World.
Chen Xiu did not continue speaking, and they passed through the white wall, which acted as the boundary between lower city and middle city, in silence. They went through a large gate where the soldiers they encountered only glanced at them with their waists completely straight and without any intention to bow.
The middle city was much smaller compared to the lower city, but it had magnificent buildings. Every family had a large residence with guards at the door.
Before long, the trio arrived at another opening in the white wall. After passing through it, they entered the upper city where the genuinely influential people of Asura City resided. Compared to the mud houses of lower city and all sorts of buildings in middle city, the upper city only had four large residences. The area occupied by each one of them was astonishing, since they were an official headquarters of the four great clans.
If one looked into the distance from the gate of the upper city , they could see a giant skull—the city lord’s mansion.
A group of soldiers in black armor were standing behind the gate. When Chen Xiu rose his monster lizard over, a feminine man holding a bone-spear walked out from the group of soldiers and said in a cold voice,
You finally came. Patriarch wants to see you.
Chen Xiu looked at the feminine man in front of him. He was an efficient subordinate of Patriarch Jiao Xiu, Ming Wang, a half god level powerhouse and a branch family descendant who resided in Morrow Clan’s residence and only followed Jiao Xiu’s commands.
When a half god powerhouse was waiting for a long time at the entrance to summon him, Chen Xiu, as a branch family descendant who had lived in Morrow Clan for twenty something years, naturally knew what that meant. The moment Li Yunmu had killed Ming Xiu at the Pipa Clan, he knew it was going to happen.
Each of the direct disciples of the four great clans had left behind a jade slip with a part of their soul in the clan’s mansion. If they encountered an accident and died, the clan would immediately know.
Although Chen Xiu had not contested for the group of children releasing the five-colored light at the Pipa Clan, when all was said and done, he was still present there. The young masters of the other three clans had seen him, so when Ming Xiu had died, he was the main suspect.
If he really returned with Ming Wang, then regardless of whether it was related to him or not, he would still be buried with Ming Xiu.
After recalling what Li Yunmu had told him on the trip to Asura City, Chen Xiu took a deep breath and calmly said while looking at Ming Wang with a determined gaze,
Even if Patriarch has some matter to discuss with me, it must wait until I return from the city lord’s mansion. You should know what’s urgent and what’s not.
A hint of ridicule appeared on Ming Wang’s face hidden under the black helmet.
You can go to the city lord’s mansion later,
he said with a cold tone.
When the young master of Rahu Clan visited, he left City Lord Ashbi in a poor mood. He might still be angry, so it would be better if you take it slowly, and Patriarch has something urgent to ask you.
After saying that, Ming Wang’s black and white eyes focused on Chen Xiu. Although his tone was polite, the underlying meaning was that regardless of however important his affairs were, he had to first meet with Patriarch.
After a moment of silence, Chen Xiu looked at Ming Wang coldly and said,
The information I want to report is extremely important so I naturally have to meet with the city lord first; otherwise, the consequences of this matter won’t be something a half god like you can bear.
Although Chen Xiu’s tone was extremely serious, Ming Wang only smiled in response. A great flux expert at ninth level surprisingly dared to use such a tone and look down on a half god powerhouse. He was simply undisciplined and reckless, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth.
Without saying anything, Ming Wang waved his hand, hinting for a black-armored soldier standing behind him to capture Chen Xiu. If he, a half god powerhouse, personally moved, it would be the case of strong bullying the weak and he would lose face. The black-armored soldiers he brought with him were direct subordinates of Patriarch and even the weakest among them had the strength of initial stage sage flux experts.
It was more than sufficient to capture a great flux expert branch disciple.
The reason why Ming Wang had come was to make sure that Chen Xiu did not escape. If Chen Xiu had really killed Ming Xiu, he would have the clan’s treasure Asura Eyes in his possession and could use it to arouse his bloodline, which would raise his strength to the level of a god.
But even if he borrowed strength, a few sage flux experts would be sufficient to deal with him.
Chen Xiu’s expression tightened, and he directly took out Asura Eyes hidden in his clothes. After fusing them with his eyes, his eyes began to shine like those of a god.
After that, the presence he emitted suddenly swelled. From ninth layer of great flux expert to initial stage sage flux expert, and then to great circle sage flux expert, until it matched that of Ming Wang. Chen Xiu’s presence stabilized at god realm after rising dramatically.
If you obstruct me, I won’t be polite anymore.
Chen Xiu’s figure flickered, and he became a blur that charged straight at Ming Wang.
Li Yunmu and Brunhilda, who had been watching passively before, also took action. They limited their strength to ninth layer of sage flux expert realm and rushed toward the group of black-armored soldiers. When facing them, they cautiously used their martial skills, without leaking the least bit of divine power.
A few afterimages appeared near the black-armored soldiers, and the next instant, all of them were blown away. They landed on the ground with a loud thump.
