Chapter 427: Of a Common Origin

Village Chief followed that man and saw traces of battle in Fengdu City. Some gods and devils could still be seen encircling paper men and paper horses, which bewildered him.

”Fengdu just went through a huge battle. King Yama had personally led us to fight against Youdu,” the man said. ”This isn't the first time, though. We've fought quite a lot of times in the past. This time it was because of Youdu's invasion. Youdu is always observing the world outside Great Ruins and they felt that Eternal Peace Calamity was about to erupt so they got ready to collect their souls, but they were forced back by us.”

Village Chief was dumbstruck. War between Fengdu World and Youdu World?

He had no idea that such a thing had actually happened in Great Ruins which were shrouded in darkness!

There had been a war between two worlds yet Great Ruins was still calm and peaceful. No traces of anything happening could be detected, which was simply inconceivable!

As for 'Eternal Peace Calamity' and 'collecting the souls' that his master had mentioned, it was even more terrifying. He shuddered not from the cold. Just the couple words from his master contained enough information for him to lose himself in deep thought.

If that wasn't enough, he learned that Fengdu had fought with Youdu numerous times in the past, which meant that were numerous other secrets about which people didn't know.

They came to a mansion and the man knocked on the door, smiling at the elder who opened it. ”Old fart, I've brought your disciple's disciple to see you! Good disciple, come and greet your grandmaster!”

Village Chief aimed a kick at his butt and balls before saying angrily, ”How could you speak like that to my grandmaster? My grandmaster is still your master yet you show no etiquette at all!”

His master grew furious. ”He tricked me to take up this role, and can you imagine how much hardship I suffered for it? A family wrenched apart, friends dying one by one, so calling him old fart is already letting him off lightly! Besides, I'm your master, so where's your etiquette? Your temper has grown eh, you need a beating!”

”Stop quarreling!” The elder was also furious. ”We are all human emperors, so how can we quarrel every time we meet? I'll bring you to meet my master. That old scumbag will definitely be happy seeing you guys dead as well!”

Village Chief and the tall and sturdy old man were both slightly unhappy. Village Chief said, ”Grandmaster, even though he's your master, he's also my great-grandmaster, so isn't it slightly disrespectful to call him old scumbag?”

The elder sneered at him. ”That old scumbag tricked me to become the human emperor and made my life hard, taking away all the fun from it. If he wasn't already dead, I wouldn't want anything more than to beat him to death! Let's go, I will bring you guys to meet him!”

Village Chief and the tall and sturdy man looked at each other in dismay. The master dusted off his clothes and asked in a low voice, ”Good disciple, have you passed down the position of the human emperor?”

Village Chief nodded.

The tall and sturdy man let out a shaky breath and said, ”After your disciple dies, he will definitely find this place to scold and beat you, saying that you have ruined his life.”

Village Chief became nervous and shook his head. ”Mu'er is a good child and wouldn't do this. Mu'er is the most filial…”

The tall and sturdy man sneered at him. ”I thought you would hug me with a face full of tears after you died, yet you ended up giving me a kick! If you are like this, then what could be said about your disciple? Just wait for him to beat you up after he dies! That's right, have you lied to him before?”

Village Chief's face instantly blackened as he muttered, ”I lied to him, saying that he's an Overlord Body, and he ended up pretty hardworking.”

”What Overlord Body?” The elder turned his head back, looking rather curious.

Village Chief told them the whole story, and the two devils were dumbfounded. They were speechless for a long time and could only raise their thumbs up at Village Chief.

”You are definitely dead!” the two of them said over and over again. ”Your lie is the most ruthless; you're definitely going to die! Even though we also lied to our disciples, we didn't lie this horribly. You are good, making him live his whole life in a huge lie. After he dies, he won't just stop at kicking you and calling you an old fart!”

Village Chief's face grew black as charcoal. He consoled himself, ”Mu'er won't do that, he won't do that, Mu'er is the most filial…”

”You were also very filial back then. You were the most filial to me, but didn't you kick me down the bridge the moment you saw me?”

”Shut up, old bastard!”

…

The divine flood dragon king chased after the traces of the injured god, all the way to God Broken Mountain Range. Qin Mu suppressed his feebleness and refined spirit pills to heal the divine flood dragon king's injuries.

Driving Moon Ship had exhausted him greatly. The moon was a treasure forged by God Zi Qing, but it was already extinguished, so it wasn't able to supply the humongous energy that Moon Ship required. To drive it then, Qin Mu had to sacrifice his lifeforce.

When he had fished out a new sun for the sun herders, he had exhausted a huge amount of life force and could only barely recover by soaking in the pond of pure yang. Controlling Moon Ship had also exhausted him greatly. It was a pity that the degree of damage to Moon Ship was much more severe than that to Sun Ship, and the pond of pure yin had also dried up, so he was unable to replenish his life force. He could only rely on himself to slowly recover.

However, since he had to chase after the injured god so he wouldn't be able to reach Eternal Peace, Qin Mu had no time to treat himself.

”This god of High Heavens didn't go by Surging River…”

The corners of Qin Mu's eyes wrinkled and his heart sank.

If the god of High Heavens had taken the path of Surging River, he could use Dragon King to block him. With his battle power added to that of the divine flood dragon king, they should have been able to take him down.

But since he didn't walk by Surging River, even if the divine flood dragon king caught up, it was unknown if he was strong enough to take down that god.

”If I use Secrets of Dragon Control by Dragon Rearing Sovereign to borrow the power of the flood dragons, I might be able to fight.”
