Chapter 533 - A Warm, Bright Smile (1/2)
The laughter continued and the divine weapons burst into godly auras. Immediately, it has caused a series of chain reaction, triggering the divine weapons in the many races to emerge on their own.
At that instant, the whole Ancestral Star was lit up like a firework. The divine weapons and godly spirits emerged again and protected their people!
Even the divine weapons the experts have brought along with them had to emerge to protect them from being crushed by the immense godly auras around them.
The closer they move toward Swords Gate, the more terrified the experts were. Their presumptuous and overbearing manner was now gone. They traced the sound and met with a young man standing on the top of Swords Gate. He stood before the Golden Summit, holding a cold and frigid face without the slightest expression of welcoming them nor asking for their forgiveness as what he had said.
"He knew we are coming and is giving us a show of superiority?", on the northside, Shi Buyi nearly hopped up from his seat on the deck of a warship. He suddenly laughed and pointed his finger at Zhong Yue, he said, "You see that? In just a few years, the humans have grown to such a strong stage. With him there on their side, the human race will never fall and this is just the dawn of everything. They will rise higher and higher while in turn, look at all of you, fighting and scheming internally, trying to snatch my powers away for your own."
He said frigidly, "If you three are given the power to rule, the East Barren will not last even for a decade before it is devoured by the Zhong Shan Clan member. We monsters will be enslaved by the humans for eternity!"
Behind him, the monster lords were in complete silence. Especially the three island lords, their faces were changing continuously.
While on the west, Feng Wuji abruptly stood up from his seat, he stared closely at Swords Gate and glanced around the Great Wilderness. In that moment, regrets filled into his heart, he thought, If I had let go of my lust to be the Xiao Mang high priest and instead to calm myself and be a good headmaster, such honor and glory will be mine to claim already. It wouldn't be the Zhong Shan Clan member who stands that now…
On the south, Mister Kun Da of the Kun Peng Celestial Race remained silent, but the gloomy expression that clouded his face clearly stated his unbalanced emotions.
While Clan Master Xia and Zhurong Yanqin exchanged a look, they both thought tacitly, When did the Great Wilderness Swords Gate turn so strong?
"It'd be hard to eat a few humans out from the Great Wilderness from now on…", a celestial expert mumbled.
The human race was the weakest and most humble race in the world. Even when the Lesser Void World has reappeared in the Ancestral Star, the human race was evaluated as the food of the many races despite their growth in strength.
But how many years have just passed from then until now?
And the human race has grown to such a place where it was now strong enough to be able to face squarely with the other races!
It was truly terrifying!
This was something not even the first headmaster could have done, not even those days were the humans be on such a level!
"A show of strength…?", Mister Kun Da sneered coldly, he said in a placid tone, "Today, we aren't here to witness your strength. We are here to question the sin Zhong Shan Clan member has done! We are here in the name of justice and we demand an explanation from Swords Gate. My fellow friends, not even the strongest living can bend the rules of justice, let alone Swords Gate!"
Clan Master Xia stiffened up his face, he nodded and answered, "That is true. My fellow friends, let's go to the Swords Gate Mountain!"
The many experts reached to the Swords Gate Mountain under the lead of their heads. The vessels docked beneath the mountain and the heads of the races have reached to the Golden Summit.
"Where is Headmaster Jun?", they asked.
The experts glanced around, the human disciples have gathered around and stood on guard. The lead of them were Zhong Yue and Shui Zian, following by the elder council, elders and hall masters.
Rays flashed across Shi Buyi's eyes, he said while smiling, "The heads of many races are here, but why is Headmaster Jun not yet arrived? If she is not here, none of you present are in a position high enough to stand on par with us. Is this how the humans treat their guests?"
Shui Zian stepped forward, he clasped his hands together and said in a smile, "Heads of many races, our Headmaster Jun is now in a closed door training on the Celestial Water Star, she wouldn't be able to receive you all. But before she leaves, she has appointed an acting headmaster, every affairs now will be handled by him."
"Jun Sixie, on the Celestial Water Star?", it was like a cup of cold water poured into a pot of boiling oil. The heads of the races and many experts plunged into a clamor. Feng Wuji's face changed drastically, his confident took a great hit and he exclaimed in disbelief, "She has ascend into the deityhood?"
In order to fly out of the Ancestral Star, one would need to pass through the Pure Yang lightning zone; and to fly out of the Pure Yang lightning zone, one would need to cultivate a Pure Yang Yuan Shen, which also means, ascending into the deityhood.
If Jun Sixie was now on the Celestial Water Star, it means that she was already a human god. That being said, the human race would be officially a strong faction that was on par with all the others!
If that's the case, how would they dare to come and pressure the humans?
Shui Zian held a bright smile on his face but never explained, it was best to the human race for such misunderstandings to persist.
All of a sudden, Feng Wuji regained his usual composure, he laughed and said, "No, Jun Sixie is not a god yet. She is just a human and even with the Water Innate Spirit Body, the humans just don't have such talents to ascend into the deityhood. Furthermore, it's too short a time for her to do it even if she could in the first place. Thus, Headmaster Jun must have used some sort of teleportation portal that sends her out of the Ancestral Star. It's still a question if she can make it back alive."
The heads of the races weren't idiots as well, they were capable on getting the truth on their own and with Feng Wuji pointing it out to them, they immediately realized it as well. Jun Sixie was just a True Spirit magnate, even if she was truly a great talent, she wouldn't be able to breakthrough to the Imminent Deity level so easily, let alone deityhood!
The smile that radiated across Shui Zian's face never changed even so, he said while smiling, "Senior martial brothers, why don't you all enter the palace and enjoy some teas while we discuss of the affairs."
"No need for that.", Shan Shen high priest said, "We are here for an explanation. You humans have fraternized with the insect race insect gods and caused the death of many experts and gods! Since Headmaster Jun is not in, I request Senior Martial Brother Shui to hand out the Zhong Shan Clan member!"
