Chapter 821: Accepting The Role As A Dao Lord
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
”Master, our Gods Race has as many experts as there are clouds…” A boy, who looked only a few years old, said proudly to Wu Wang.
Before he could finish his words, Wu Wang’s palm slapped across this boy’s face, directly causing some of this boy’s teeth to fall off.
All the Gods Race experts within Gods Precipice Court were so shocked that their mouths went ajar.
No one could understand why Elder Wu Wang, who adored the young lord deeply, would actually lay hands on the young lord. One must know that countless of maidservants had been killed just because they didn’t meet the expectations of the young lord.
The boy, whose mouth was now bloodied, sat there on the ground, staring at his master in disbelief. He had actually been slapped by his master, and many of his teeth had actually been shattered.
”Wu Li, you b*stard. Do you know the calamity you have brought to the Gods Race? My Gods Race is soon going to be exterminated, and that’s all because of your arrogant and wanton killing of geniuses back in Cosmos Edge. If you hadn’t been so arrogant as to offend Mo Wuji, why would you have been killed by that fella on the Dao Discussion Stage? Now, it has even caused my Gods Race to fall to such a state? If I knew that this would happen, I would have let you die. Why did I waste my Gods Race most supreme treasure on you?” Wu Wang seemed to be roaring as he pointed and scolded this young boy.
At this moment, Gods Precipice Court was deafeningly silent.
Everyone knew that this young boy was the Gods Race’s Young Lord Wu Li. The young lord had been killed by Mo Wuji on the Dao Discussion Stage, infuriating the Gods Race and leading to the massacre of millions of Human Race cultivators. At the same time, the Gods Race used a supreme dao fruit which allowed Wu Li to be reborn from a trace of his soul.
”Elder Wu, that Mo Wuji is only one person, nor does he have three heads and six arms. As for that puny army of the Human Race, it isn't even enough to cause a dent in our army. As long as we get rid of that Mo Wuji, the other races would definitely sway their loyalties. Those people are merely rats that follow where the wind blows. After we eliminate Mo Wuji, we will slowly settle our debt with them.” A late-stage Immortal Emperor walked forward, bowed and said.
”Yes, Grand Master, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on the young lord. Our Gods Race is the superior race; our young lord was honouring those people when he devoured their spiritual roots. To actually go against us, these people are clearly courting their deaths.” Another man came forward. This time, it was a Grand Emperor.
Wu Wang's anger seemed to have dissipated after that previous outburst. He remained silent for some time before he waved his hands towards those people that came forward, ”If that Mo Wuji was so easy to deal with, my hands wouldn't be so tied. To true experts, quantity would not be a threat. Even though my Gods Race has many people, I am the only Dao Emperor. Do you know how long it took for Mo Wuji to kill Chai Nuo? Two moves. Chai Nuo only managed to block half of Mo Wuji's first move, before he had his body and soul destroyed by Mo Wuji…”
The experts in Gods Precipice Court all went silent. It was true that Chai Nuo could not be compared to Grand Elder Wu Wang. However, Elder Wu Wang could dream of killing Chai Nuo in two moves.
”According to the news I received, he also has a Xiantian Godsword. In Very High Heavens Cosmos City, he only needed a single slash to kill tens of thousands of experts of my Gods Race. There were even intermediate-stage Immortal Reverents among them. Think about it, does our Gods Race have enough experts to get cut down by that Godsword of his?”
Wu Wang sighed, ”Actually, this was also my fault. I have been too indulgent with Wu Li.”
A bearded Immortal Emperor came forward and said, ”Grand Elder and Wu Li cannot be blamed for this matter. Wu Li is the hope of our Gods Race; there's nothing wrong with him devouring mutated spiritual roots in Cosmos Edge. Cosmos Edge is where experts gather; that's also the place of Wu Li's fortune. The only thing we didn't expect was that a Mo Wuji actually appeared in the Human Race.”
Wu Wang waved his hand, ”Our mistake wasn't because of Mo Wuji, but choosing to act against the Human Race. The Human Race was the original race that began cultivating the Dao. In the vast cosmos, there are countless of stellar talents. Even if Mo Wuji didn't appear, there would be other experts.”
”Grand Elder, what should we do now? With Mo Wuji's power, he definitely wouldn't stop at the cities that we have in Heaven's Beyond.” The very first late-stage Immortal Emperor said anxiously.
Wu Wang sighed once more, then he turned to look at the bloodied Wu Li. After some time, he finally said, ”You are right. Even though I have yet to see that Mo Wuji, I know how powerful he is. He definitely wouldn't stop at that. If I'm not wrong, they would definitely come to our Gods Precipice Continent. Even though our Gods Precipice Continent is rich in immortal spiritual energy, we aren't as elusive as the Human Race's Very High Heavens. The moment the Very High Heavens gets closed off from the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos, it would be hard to find it. However, our Gods Precipice Continent isn't able to do the same…”
As he said this, Wu Wang's gaze swept across the hall. He suddenly raised his volume, ”Immediately being Wu Li away from Gods Precipice Continent. At the same time, bring all the cultivation talents away from Gods Precipice Continent…”
”Grand Elder…” When these Immortal Emperors heard Wu Wang's decision, they lost the colour in their faces.
The Gods Precipice Continent was the wellspring of the pagoda Race's strength. Grand Elder Wu Wang's words meant the abandonment of Gods Precipice Continent. If they did that, the Gods Race could only cower within a lower world. It would be hard for them to rise again.
Wu Wang extended his hand, ”This matter is decided. Execute it immediately.”
With that, he especially walked to Wu Li's side, supported Wu Li up and said warmly, ”Wu Li, you are the only inheritor of my Gods Race's ancient bloodline. If you are able to awaken your bloodline, you would definitely be able to lead the Gods Race to greater heights. I only hope that you remember who was the one who forced our Gods Race to this state and take revenge for our Gods Race. It's true that I shouldn't have acted against the Human Race. However, my Gods Race doesn't have to fear what we have already done. It's true that the Human Race is strong, but our Gods Race ancient bloodline is much stronger.”
”Yes, master. Wu Li will definitely remember master's words. If I don't destroy that Mo Wuji's body, scatter his ashes and burn his soul, then I, Wu Li, am not fit to be a member of the Gods Race. As long as I, Wu Li, am still alive, I will make sure that the Human Race goes extinct,” Wu Li clenched his fists and swore resolutely.
