Chapter 845 - Celestial Demon As One! (1/2)

Yin Shixuan woke up in puzzlement, he couldn't understand why he was here.

His legs were still the fishtail as Zhong Yue hasn't lifted the bloodline seals in him. Yin Fanxuan quickly asked Yin Shixuan what he had undergone, but he couldn't remember anything else other than him going onboard to land from the Heavenly River.

There were a few years of memories lost in him, it was truly peculiar.

"You've been kidnapped by a madman in a white robe," Yin Yunkang said, "You've been lost for a few years, it was Mister Yi that saved you."

Yin Shixuan thanked Zhong Yue over and over again, but seeing him still in a blurry state, Yin Yunkang immediately brought him back to the State of Heavenly River.

"Let me ride the carriage as my apology." King Zi Guang sat on the rider's seat and smiled.

Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan entered the carriage cabin and they rode back toward the Xian Tian Palace while little princess Mu Qingxuan and the other Xian Tian Palace gods followed beside the carriage.

As soon as the carriage exited the Diming Clan's territory, there were godly rays that filled the sky as Royal Prince Wen Yu led the Diming gods and stood before the carriage.

Zhong Yue walked out and looked over, Royal Prince Wen Yu bowed with a smile, "I've heard that Mister is coming to visit our Diming Clan and have thus led a welcome team to receive Mister's arrival. But Mister, why are you leaving suddenly and placed my joy in waste?"

Zhong Yue replied politely, "Your Royal Highness, forgive me, the Imperial Emperor has shone his wisdom and care on me, I am afraid I cannot visit you anymore."

Royal Prince Wen Yu frowned and sighed, "Mister, you have a mind and heart of your own, I do not dare to force you into anything. But I do hope, that one day when we see again, we can still be friends."

"Your Royal Highness, you are too polite." Zhong Yue looked over Royal Prince Wen Yu at the gods behind him. There were numbers of Deity Emperors and Creators in the formation, as if preparing to attack.

But Royal Prince Wen Yu was looking at King Zi Guang who was sitting on the rider's seat, he coughed and said, "Halt, stand aside and let Mister pass."

The Diming gods heed loyally to his command, they stood aside and opened up a pathway for Zhong Yue to leave.

Zhong Yue thanked and returned to the carriage, then, the Kirin carriage moved past the gods and left.

"Your Royal Highness, when Mister Yi returns to the Xian Tian Palace, Mu Xiantian will have another great talent assisting him in his treason, even the Yinkang Clan will stand on his side." A Creator frowned, he said, "Why don't we…"

Royal Prince Wen Yu shook, "Zi Guang is beside him, this isn't good timing to act. King Zi Guang is a sly and cunning fox, if we took any moves, we would most probably fall into his plan and most of us will not walk out alive. Return now, only my father can make the decision."

The gods nodded and left with him back to the Diming Clan.

…

The carriage moved toward the Xian Tian Palace; before it left the Imperial Star, there were rains of light that falls from above them. They looked up and saw godly rays raining down on them, oftentimes, the light rays would dim down and shine brightly again concomitant with rumbling noises.

"Press forward!" King Zi Guang ordered.

The gods surrounded the carriage and moved in the midst of the rain of lights. Then, there were beams of different colored lights that shattered the void and appeared above them. Moreover, they could even see a huge body tearing open a space rift, trying to move to them, but before it could even move his hand out from the void, it would be pulled back into the void and the space rift would close again.

After half a day, a huge head fell from the void and rolled down the space as a burning planet.

Then, there were severed limbs that fell from above, followed by a headless and limbless body. But even severed, the limbs were still moving, they crawled toward and attached themselves onto the body, but without the head's guide, the attachment went terribly wrong. One of the legs was attached to the broken neck and one of the hands to the thigh.

The headless body then quickly moved and crawled its way out of the scene.

As it left, the rain of lights also disappeared.

Another few days went by, and the surroundings suddenly turned dark and the lights were no more. They couldn't see the stars and sun around anymore but instead, there were burning ghost fires that replaced the countless astronomical bodies.

Right after that, there were white banners and flags that fluttered toward them, they numbered in millions and were concomitant with the ghostly cries, mourns, sobbings, chidings, and cursings of the poor souls.

"The old ghost of the Heaven Court! Mister Yi, it looks like Heavenly Monarch does value you very much." King Zi Guang was surprised and said to Zhong Yue who was sitting inside of the carriage cabin.

Zhong Yue opened the cabin's window and saw the ghost fires and the white banners. He squinted his eyes and could see vague silhouettes fighting in the dark. However, the impact of this battle wasn't as loud and obvious as the one before.

Instead, the battle was taken place in the dark and in quiet. He could only see the silhouettes flashing in the dark but there were no signs or impacts of any skills lashed out, not even a single noise from the change of bouts.

After a long time, the ghost fires and white banners left and disappeared in their vicinity, the surrounding was returned to normal.

"Mister Zi Guang, who was that?" Yin Fanxuan asked.

"The Left Prime Minister of the Heaven Court, Ghost Master Gui Youming. He was the military and war advisor to Heavenly Monarch back in the days of chaos."

King Zi Guang smiled, "The one who had his head chopped off and his limbs severed was Shen Wuwei, the Heaven Court's Field Marshal. One a scholar and the other a warrior. They are both Heavenly Monarch's most trusted subordinates. Heavenly Monarch doesn't make simple decisions and rough plans, with Gui Youming's and Shen Wuwei's defeat, our trip should be safe from now on."

The carriage moved for months before it returned to the Xian Tian Palace. When it was ten thousand miles away from the palace, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian led his Xian Tian Palace's Deity Overlords, Deity Emperors, Creators, the Heavens Lords, the princes, and princesses to welcome him.

Seeing the grand welcome formation, King Zi Guang thought, If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have forced it before already. Now Imperial Emperor values him even more than before. This treacherous subject will surely become even more arrogant and ignorant!
