Chapter 929: Interrogation (1/2)

Yu Rang deployed such marvelous sword dao that even the dead Xuanyuan Sword had transformed into a sword soul in his hands. The sword was the greatest manmade treasure in the world, and one of the strongest as well.

Lu Yun inclined his head at the human descendant. “It is the honor of the human race to have such a warrior as you.” He put away the spear and axe, dismissed the Size Manipulation death art, and raised cupped fists at Yu Rang—greatly startling the yin soul.

Though he was battling Lu Yun, Lu Yun’s identity was the Flame Emperor and a most venerable senior of the human race. Yu Rang felt completely unworthy of the courtesy, even though he’d just smashed one of the Flame Emperor’s attacks to pieces.

“But!!” Twin black flames burned in Lu Yun’s eyes when he jerked his head back up. “How dare you run around with this akasha ghost?!”

Swoosh!

He vanished where he stood to reemerge in front of Yu Rang, slapping the yin soul with everything he had. Lu Yun put so much force behind the slap that he punched through Yu Rang’s body of qi, shattering half of the yin soul’s face and revealing his true form beneath.

“Do you know that this akasha ghost latched onto the great Pangu’s body like a parasite and blasphemed against his true form?! Pangu is the father god of the human race and our ancestor! How dare you conspire with the akasha ghost that desecrated the great god!!”

SMACK!

Lu Yun slapped Yu Rang’s other cheek and pulverized the yin soul’s head this time.

“Do you know that when humanity conquered the heavens, it was this akasha ghost who backed the celestial court and killed countless members of our kin?!”

Boom!

Lu Yun slapped Yu Rang a third time and crushed his body of qi to pieces, dragging the yin soul out with his bare hands.

Lu Yun burned with hatred!

Humans had conquered the heavens in the ninetieth year of his arrival in the great wilderness, but he hadn’t been able to contribute to their efforts after breaking apart the formation that the celestial court had set up around Mount Buzhou. At the time, he couldn’t afford to fight again in the great wilderness.

Despite that, he kept abreast of many developments.

When the human race and celestial court met in their final clash, the court hadn’t been able to put up any semblance of a fight. Haotian’s confidence and valor, as well as that of numerous other connate demon gods, had deserted them after Lu Yun’s heaven-defying punch.

But against all odds, the celestial court still made the human race pay a heavy price and many great gods fighting for humanity even died. All of that could be traced to the akasha ghost supporting the celestial court.

After the court lost and Haotian surrendered in defeat, the akasha ghost continued to plot and scheme from the shadows. Lu Yun learned from Wanfeng that peace and tranquillity hadn’t descended after his departure, that a great deal had still happened.

Ah Bao and Shaodian all became chaos realm experts, but somehow died to the akasha souls. No one knew how Leize and Huaxu died, but in Lu Yun’s eyes, there was none that could threaten them apart from this akasha ghost.

The destruction of human dao hadn’t been a side effect of establishing immortal dao or betrayal of all life either, but because this akasha ghost and its tribe had attacked it!

If the human dao had been whole and able to resist the akasha ghost and whatever was turning dead worlds into realm monsters, would Hongjun and Daoist Yuyu have needed to slaughter innocents and establish an immortal dao drenched with blood?

And now, someone who claimed he wanted to take revenge for human dao and revitalize it shared the same path as the real enemy of the human race!

Hellfire danced in Lu Yun’s hand as he delivered a crazed barrage of face slaps to Yu Rang’s form.

Dazed, the yin soul’s mind spun from the abuse. He’d congratulated himself just moments ago for being stronger than the Flame Emperor, but now that he’d gotten a clearer look, he realized that this ancestor was infinitely close to the creator realm.
