Chapter 788: The Experts From The Gods Race Return (2/2)

Mo Wuji stood up and clasped his fists towards Feng Huang and Ji Ku, ”I've already learnt a lot from this conversation with Dao Lord Feng and Immortal Friend Ji. I will not impose on Dao Lord Feng any further. We will meet again in the future.”

With that, Mo Wuji turned and left. He didn't even slow down.

”Wait, Immortal Friend Mo, I have some god equipment from Cosmos Wall in my mansion. Even though they aren't anything much, it would provide a glimpse of the stage beyond the Immortal Emperor Stage,” Feng Huang hurriedly cried out.

Mo Wuji turned his head and said solemnly, ”I understand Dao Lord Feng’s kind intentions. But now, I need to find a person.”

”I wonder where Immortal Friend Mo is heading towards?” While he knew that he wouldn't be able to get Mo Wuji to stay, Feng Huang still chose to ask.

”I will look around.” By the time he finished saying that, Mo Wuji had already left the resthouse with Yan Yuerong.

”What's wrong?” Feeling that something was amiss with Feng Huang, Ji Ku asked this question again.

Feng Huang frowned and said, ”The Gods Race asked me to get that Mo Wuji to stay. They would rush to Cosmos Edge in half a day. It seems like I’ve underestimated the importance that Gods Race placed on Wu Li. I originally wanted to befriend Mo Wuji before he leaves Cosmos Edge. As long as Mo Wuji leaves before the people from Gods Race arrive, then this would no longer be my business. However, I never expected that the Gods Race would send a message even before Mo Wuji left. They were clearly threatening me.”

Feng Huang indeed wanted to make an investment. However, he didn't expect that before he could complete his investment, the Gods Race had sent him that flying messenger sword. Clearly, the Gods Race were very clear of his personality, and they also placed much importance on that Wu Li.

Ji Ku asked doubtfully, ”Just now, that Mo Wuji seemed to be in a hurry to leave. Could he have seen the contents from the flying messenger sword?”

Feng Huang shook his head, ‘Thaht’s impossible. Just now, there wasn’t any spatial ripples formed from the usage of spiritual will. Even if there was, there are seals on the flying messenger sword. They wouldn’t be simply broken. Even though Mo Wuji is a Grade 7 Array Master, he wouldn’t be capable of that.”

The reason why Feng Huang dared to make such assertations was because he had felt Mo Wuji releasing his spiritual will back when Mo Wuji broke the seals on Ju Chuan’s storage ring. However, he didn’t feel any movement of spiritual will at all just now.

”There’s no need to care about the Gods Race. Brother Feng had tried to get Mo Wuji to stay, to no avail. At that point, you would have to battle with Mo Wuji in order to get him to stay,” Ji Ku reassured.

Feng Huang nodded but didn’t say a word. He had recorded what had happeend just now. When the Gods Race sent that message, he could help as much as he can. However, he definitely wouldn’t pit his life against Mo Wuji’s just because of a flying sword from the Gods Race.

…

At the same time, a flying ship was speeding towards Cosmos Edge.

There were four people on the flying ship. The man at the front had black and white runic tattoos on his face. His body was exuding sharp and heavy killing intent, and his aura was so intense that it seemed to tear the space around him.

This man was a Dao Emperor of the Gods Race - Wu Wang. Not only was he the ancestor of Wu Li, he was also Wu Li’s master.

”We just sent a flying messenger sword to Feng Huang. Feng Huang wouldn’t help Mo Wuji by telling Mo Wuji about us, right?” The one speaking was an old man standing next to Wu Wang. His skin was like a tree bark and his voice was like a leaky flute. His aura was also strong and intense; his cultivation was no lower than Wu Wang.

Wu Wang said coldly, ”Anyone that dares to kill the young lord of my Gods Race would rush to leave Cosmos Edge. I understand Feng Huang’s character very well; he likes to create opportunities. If I didn’t send that flying messager sword to him, he might actually befriended that person, then helped that person to escape.

But now that I sent him that message, he doesn’t have the balls to reveal the secret. Knowing that we will arrive in half a day, he will try to keep Mo Wuji for at least an hour or two. That would be enough. That fella killed my Gods Race’s young lord and three Immortal Emperors. If I don’t shatter this person’s bones, scatter his ashes, and burn his soul, I, Wu Wang, would be wasting my long years of cultivation.

…

”Brother Da Huang, are the experts of the Gods Race coming?” Seeing Mo Wuji anxiously bringing her to leave Cosmos Edge, Yan Yuerong knew that something was amiss.

Mo Wuji nodded, ”Yes. The content of that flying messenger sword was a request from the Gods Race, asking Feng Huang to try and delay me for half a day. Four Dao Emperors from the Gods Race would be coming soon.”

Yan Yuerong heaved a sigh of relief, ”That’s ok. Half a day is enough for us to escape.”

Mo Wuji laughed ruefully and said, ”Half a day? I’m sure that it would already be amazing if we even have an hour. The Gods Race is making use of Feng Huang’s character. If Feng Huang saw half a day, he would not wholeheartedly delay me, and would only get me to stay for an hour or so. He would already consider that helping the Gods Race. I am sure that in less than an hour, the experts from the Gods Race would arrive in Cosmos Edge.”

”Ah…” Yan Yuerong realised that she was still too inexperienced. She hurriedly asked, ”Then where are we going?”

”To the Shattered Ruins. I have a jade letter map of the Shattered Ruins. Only if I am able to step into the Immortal Emperor Stage within the Shattered Ruins, then I would have the qualifications to return and discuss the dao with these Dao Emperors.” Mo Wuji retrieved his immortal concealment boat. After entering it with Yan Yuerong, the boat shot into the vast void. In an instant, it disappeared without a trace.
