Chapter 484 - Change The Regime? (2/2)

Ou Yangming was moved, and he thought, ‘I can do more than resist them. If I happen to have a conflict against them and even fight them in their secret realm, I can kill all of them.’

The imperial family was notably powerful, but their only powerhouse that surpa.s.sed the Extreme Grade was Wu Yuanwei, who stayed in the secret realm and dared not anyhow leave the place. Based on the forces Ou Yangming had at the moment, he could eradicate the imperial family without the little bird’s help.

Even so, he did not answer the great ancestor directly. Instead, he stated, “The imperial family is being watched over by the Humans’ greatest powerhouse, and they also have a secret realm. On the other hand, I have a weak foundation, so I might not necessarily triumph over them.”

His response was false, but it sounded relatively sincere to Ni Jingshen and Fang Zhaoyang.

The imperial family’s mightiness was acc.u.mulated over a millennium. Even though Ou Yangming rose fast, n.o.body would believe that he could easily suppress the imperial family.

Ni Jingshen nodded and commented, “Lil’ Friend Ou, you’re right. Even if you manage to kill the imperial family’s number one powerhouse, they’ll ask powerhouses from the upper realm to descend into our world. If that happens, we’ll be doomed.”

“Pfft…” The little bird suddenly made a strange noise in the birdcage.

Fang Zhaoyang and Ni Jingshen looked at it at the same time and were surprised.

Ou Yangming warned the little bird with his eyes and quickly expressed, “Yes, the imperial family’s strength is unpredictable. That said, there’s something I don’t understand—even if they’re mighty, what does it have to do with me?”

Ni Jingshen’s eyes lit up right away. He asked softly, “Lil’ Friend Ou, do you not have any idea?”

“What idea?” Ou Yangming widened his eyes and raised another question slowly.

The elder was hesitant for a brief moment, but he finally could not hold it in anymore, so he answered, “Changing the regime!”

Ni Jingshen had been trying to be discreet, hence he was finally relieved after he revealed it. Besides, since the elder disclosed it in the end, it was like a shot arrow, which could not be taken back anymore.

Fang Zhaoyang nodded hard and agreed with him. “The Wu family has dominated for more than a millennium, so it’s time for a change.”

Ou Yangming had somewhat seen this coming, but he was still taken aback when he heard their suggestion.

He looked at them with bright eyes and asked, “Gentlemen, are you kidding me?”

Ni Jingshen could not help but laugh. “Lil’ Friend Ou, do you think we’ll joke about this?”

Ou Yangming frowned. When he noticed the eager looks on their faces, he could not help but mumble to himself, ‘What the h.e.l.l are they up to?’

“Lil’ Friend Ou, don’t worry. As long as we can defeat the imperial family, their reinforcements from the upper realm won’t come here for sure!” Ni Jingshen added as if he could tell Ou Yangming’s concern.

“What?” Ou Yangming was dumbfounded.

Fang Zhaoyang explained mysteriously, “The imperial family has someone to rely on in the upper realm, but so do we!”

Ou Yangming fixed his gaze on them for some time and sighed. “Gentlemen, the Humans’ disaster isn’t completely over yet, so don’t you think you’re going overboard by bringing this up?”

Ni Jingshen flushed, but he said at once, “Lil’ Friend Ou, we wouldn’t have done this back then, but the situation is different this time…” He glanced at Big Yellow and continued, “Lil’ Friend Ou, you emerged out of the blue, controlled two spirit beasts, and even killed a spirit insect. As long as you head to Canghai County, the Humans’ disaster will be over. Hehe, the Humans suffered heavy casualties during the disasters for generations, but the disaster is mild this time, so everyone is elated.”

“Elder Ni, many people are hurt in the city, so how is it mild?” Ou Yangming forced a smile.

“It’s true if you compare it with the past.” Ni Jingshen kept a straight face.

Fang Zhaoyang added momentum to the situation. “Master Ou, you might not intend to hurt the tiger, but the tiger plans to hurt you. Even if you don’t mean to replace the imperial family, you made great achievements this time and conquered two spirit beasts. Hehe, do you think the imperial family will relax?”

“Exactly. Even if they fear your forces and dare not resist you head-on, they’ll surely set something up to target you. If they invite you into the secret realm and powerhouses from the upper realm descend, you won’t be able to defend against them even if you have two spirit beasts.”

Ou Yangming was moved but before he could give any response, he heard the little bird’s mockery.

‘What’s so amazing about those from the upper realm? As long as I’m here, I’ll kill anyone that comes!’

Despite that, apart from Ou Yangming, n.o.body else could hear it.

Ou Yangming sighed helplessly. He suddenly realized that he made a huge mistake by letting the little bird stay beside him throughout the discussion.

‘This little fella will only give me more troubles in such a situation.’

While Ou Yangming did not intend to overturn the imperial family, he became more or less alert after the two Supreme Great Ancestors brought up the issue.
