Chapter 1150 - Killing Emissary (1/2)
The one he was worried about was neither Monarch Chang Sheng or Monarch Yang Zun. Who would harm Mu Xiantian but Zhong Yue himself!
After achieving the seventh secret realm, King Zi Guang started suspecting that a monarch was behind Zhong Yue. Zhong Yue’s background was very vague and clouded, and King Zi Guang was unable to discern his intentions. Though Mu Xiantian’s lady body was powerful, she was still not a monarch, and that meant that she was no match to that monarch lurking around.
If he left Mu Xiantian alone with Zhong Yue, he feared that Zhong Yue would kill Mu Xiantian!
As if he felt the gaze from King Zi Guang, Zhong Yue turned around, and a bright and warm smile appeared on his face as he said, “Senior Martial Brother Zi Guang, you should stop staring at me at my back, you are making me uneasy, it feels just like there is someone pointing a dagger at my back in point black.”
King Zi Guang, on the other hand, returned a smile and moved his vision aside.
Zhongyang Clan, the ancient monarch race that gave birth to five eras of Heavenly Monarch back in the Earth Order Era but now. The once powerful race was not forced into working with Monarch Chang Sheng.
Both Monarch Chang Sheng and Monarch Yang Zun found themselves outpowered by Queen Goddess and Monarch QIng He. Fortunately, as ancient monarch race, they prayed through the altar and summoned the monarch spirits down to aid them.
Throughout these days, Queen Goddess and Monarch Qing He merely surrounded them and no further actions were taken, as they were waiting for the remaining soldiers to arrive. A seemingly endless army surrounded Zhongyang Clan while Feng Wuji led the other generals to attack the Luli Clan and the other sovereign races. Countless gods were captured as prisoners and they were all sent to the Zhongyang Clan.
Seeing this scene, both Monarch Chang Sheng and Monarch Yang Zun inevitably frowned greatly.
And this expression of theirs changed immediately after catching a glimpse of the five monarchs altar being set up in the enemy camps.
“King Yi is here!”
Suddenly, something ticked Monarch Yang Zun off and he looked into the skies, “That ancient ship of King Yi is the only thing I know that can sneak past our Zhongyang Clan’s protective arrays.”
Monarch Chang Sheng raised his head at the same time, finding a massive ancient ship sailing out from the dimensions and arriving at the border of Zhongyang Clan’s sacred ground.
A voice was resounded out coolly, “We are King Yi and King Zi Guang of Xian Tian Palace, greetings, great monarchs.”
The two monarchs exchanged a glance and Monarch Yang Zun laughed, “It is rare for both King Yi and King Zi Guang to visit us! Come, please come in!”
At the same time, another voice burst out laughing, “Heavenly Monarch Wu Ming’s messenger, Yuan Shaotang, is here under Her Majesty’s order to meet with the two great monarchs!”
“Queen Goddess also sent an emissary?”
Monarch Chang Sheng and Monarch Yang Zun looked towards the new visitor, where they saw a Creator and his servants come walking towards Zhongyang Clan’s fortress wall right from the enemy camps.
“Let them in,” ordered Monarch Yang Zun.
After some time, Mu Xiantian, Zhong Yue and the others entered and that Yuan Shaotang also arrived, appearing proud and confident. Upon seeing Zhong Yue and King Zi Guang, Yuan Shaotang’s eyes rolled around and he smiled, “Isn’t this the god of war, King Yi? Mister Yi, your defeat and immediate retreat back to the Imperial Star surpasses even Mister Wuji, your reputation is now down in the drain and you still have the face to come here?”
Zhong Yue returned a smile without being bothered at all.
Yuan Shaotang’s vision landed on King Zi Guang as he mocked again, “As for King Zi Guang, you are not even as intelligent and wise as they say. You left behind billions of bodies back in the Heavenly River war and started turtling inside Heaven Breaching Fortress. You have the reputation but not the corresponding capability, an empty tin that makes the most noise and just like Mister Yi, shouldn’t you be embarrassed of yourself for being here?”
King Zi Guang too, smiled and ignored Yuan Shaotang.
Seeing how the duo remained silent, Yuan Shaotang burst out laughing and started walking towards the Zhongyang Clan’s saint palace to meet with Monarch Chang Sheng and Monarch Yang Zun.
Monarch Yang Zun then invited him to sit, and after taking his seat, Yuan Shaotang waited patiently for Zhong Yue and the others’ arrival.
Footsteps sounded out, and Zhong Yue and King Zi Guang marched into the saint palace. Mu Xiantian and Di Xiuluo, the former followed behind Zhong Yue and the latter behind King Zi Guang.
Zhong Yue and King Zi Guang first greeted and paid respect to the spiritual tablets of the five monarchs worshipped in the saint palace before greeting Monarch Yang Zun and Monarch Chang Sheng.
Right away, Monarch Yang Zun stood up and bowed back, before formally and seriously inviting them both to sit.
Feeling mistreated by the lack of similar treatment, Yuan Shaotang grunted and shouted, “Monarch Yang Zun, I too, am an emissary just like them. So why are you treating us differently? Are you looking down at Heavenly Monarch Wu Ming?”
Monarch Yang Zun gave him a cold glance and replied, “Not quite, King Zi Guang and King Yi are treated with more respect because they gave us what we wanted, the courtesy and appropriate level of respect to us. Our Zhongyang Clan’s spiritual tablets of the five monarchs are the tablets of the five Heavenly Monarchs of our clan from the Earth Order Era and they are all worshipped right at this place. The two misters first paid their respect to spiritual tablets of the five monarchs before Senior Martial Brother Chang Sheng and myself, which requires me to return the same level of respect to them, or I would be shaming my own clan. As for you, you greeted me right away and that makes you a junior of mine, so all I need to do is nod.”
Hearing this, Yuan Shaotang burst out laughing, as if he knew no shame, “Ancient races really have so many rules binding them. Monarch Yang Zun and Monarch Chang Sheng, Yuan Shaotang is here as an emissary to talk to you about surrendering!”
Without any unnecessary procedures, Yuan Shaotang went straight to the point and said, “Heavenly Monarch Wu Ming is the rightful ruler of this universe, with Qing He, Jin Tian and Yang Hou’s support and the surrender of the other monarch races, Her Majesty is responsible for securing a peaceful era for all living beings in this universe!”
The two monarchs, however, remained unmoved and they looked towards the two kings with an indescribable expression, as if they were waiting for the two kings to talk.
