Chapter 810 - Overwhelmed (1/2)

Translator: AL_Squad Editor: AL_Squad

Outside the Heavenly Sage Hall in Shengjing Sect, Central Region, Nine Regions. A crisis that nearly caused two major forces to break up was finally eliminated by the b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre.

The speculators in the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals gathered together and were almost wiped out. However, after the Nine-Tailed Fox called the backup to slaughter most of the people, Supreme Hetu finally arrived late and came forward to maintain the overall situation. His focus was entirely on these several points: Sincerely apologized for the various unfair treatment suffered by the Earth Immortals before, and then announced that a more comprehensive internal rectification will be carried out. Interestingly, Supreme Hetu put forward a very detailed rectification plan on the spot, with the signatures of the leaders of other major sects. It could be seen that it was a long-planned thunder strike to eliminate certain forces.

It was true that this would cause considerable internal friction, but the acc.u.mulated drawbacks of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals in the past fifteen years were swept away overnight. The relations.h.i.+p between the Union and the ancient Earth Immortals became closer again, and the ruling power of the five major sects was further consolidated. Compared with the previous situation where the undercurrents were raging under the centralized power, it was really much more advantageous, and it was undoubtedly the time to set things right.

The Nine-Tailed Fox, who lighted the fuse, wisely chose to retreat after her success. She left the Heavenly Sage Hall the first chance she got and was ready to go on her merry way. However, before she went too far, she already fell into a new predicament.

“Hey guys… The task is completed, so stop following me, okay? I’m not your mother…”

The fox girl tried to shoo away the entourage behind her.

“Don’t you guys have your own family and friends? For example, you, the lead disciple of Shengjing, why are you not kneeling in front of Hetu to greet him? What are you pestering me for?’

Qiong Hua, who was called out by the fox girl, smiled and said, “You are holding w.a.n.g Lu’s token to mobilize us here, if we don’t follow you, who else should we follow?”

The fox girl said angrily, “Then I order you guys to disband and go back to your own places! Even if I’m just a fox, I too want a private life, okay? I’ve been alone for thousands of years, can’t you guys give me a chance to leave?”

Qiong Hua said, “The authorization period given to you by w.a.n.g Lu has just pa.s.sed, and now you have no right to order us.”

“… I don’t know what to say. Are you guys making fun of me on purpose? Because I’m the Nine-Tailed Fox, you guys are deliberately making fun of me, right?”

Qiong Hua explained, “As the pilots of Zakus, we controlled the most important forces in Nine Regions. For safety reasons, obedience to order is already embedded in the creed of the primordial spirit, so even if we want to disobey, we can’t. You ordered us to follow you, so we can only follow you until there is a new order.”

“Who else can give you orders beside w.a.n.g Lu?”

“No one else. No second person is allowed… In the deployment of Zakus, w.a.n.g Lu only trusted himself, not even Senior Gem Emperor.”

When she heard this, the Nine-Tailed Fox couldn’t help but scratch her head and said, “That guy looks very smart, so how could he make such a low-level mistake like not setting up his subst.i.tute? Who will replace him when he falls?”

Qiong Hua seriously said, “If w.a.n.g Lu falls, there’s no need to consider the issue of succession. Right now, anyone in Nine Regions can be replaced, but not him.”

“Do you think so highly of your old enemy?”

Qiong Hua said, “I would not consider w.a.n.g Lu to be my old enemy, That would be bad for me and Shengjing Sect.”

The fox girl pouted, “Tch, really boring.”

With that, she stopped paying attention to these stubborn pilots and walked around the Heavenly Sage Hall, minding her own business.

For this group of testing machines that insisted on following her, the fox girl was actually not as repulsive as it seemed. It was true that by following her around, these Zakus were an inconvenience, but were they not also protecting her? As a Fallen Immortal traitor who once nearly exterminated Spirit Sword Sect and recently inflicted serious damage to Daoist Master Feng Yin, without the protection of these Zakus, she would be very alarmed every step of the way in Nine Regions.

Halfway through, the fox girl suddenly thought of a problem.

Qiong Hua said that anyone in Nine Regions could be replaced, but not w.a.n.g Lu. But now, it appeared that w.a.n.g Lu had been banished to the endless void. Could he ever come back?

When she thought of this, the fox girl suddenly got a headache. Although she was forced to betray the Immortal World and jumped to the Nine Regions side, a betrayal was a betrayal, and the Immortal World would never consider the word mercy to a servant. Now she had no choice. Once the s.h.i.+p of Nine Regions sank, she would undoubtedly die.

“I have to think about it. Is there any way to bring that guy back to Nine Regions?”
