Chapter 821: Accepting The Role As A Dao Lord (2/2)

”Alright. Leave now.” Wu Wang was a man of action. With that, he immediately announced the exodus of the Gods Race from Gods Precipice Continent.

…

Very High Heavens Cosmos City. The seals and defensive array around the city had been reduced to dust. The huge words ”Gods Race’s Fifth Immortal City”, which had been placed up by the Gods Race after the Human Race had been chased out, was also torn apart.

None of the tens of thousands of Gods Race cultivators in the city escaped; they were all slaughtered by the coalition of various races.

Mo Wuji stood in mid-air outside the city. The Immortal World cultivators had already started to clean up the battlefield, while the cultivators from the other races had started to withdraw from the city.

The Gods Race had finally been expelled from Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. The five immortal cities that the Gods Race owned in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos now belonged to the Human Race.

The Dao Emperors from the Demon Race, Vampiric Race and the Sea Race, as well as tens of Grand Emperors and late-stage Immortal Emperors stood behind Mo Wuji. Feng Huang and Ape Mo stood right next to Mo Wuji.

At this instant, all of them had complicated feelings in their hearts. They looked at Mo Wuji with eyes filled with respect and fear. Mo Wuji had already shocked them with his individual combat power, but that Godsword of Mo Wuji’s had shocked them even further.

When they were invading Very High Heavens Cosmos City, Mo Wuji merely used one slash. With that one slash, Mo Wuji ripped the defensive array of the city apart. Not only that, more than ten thousand Gods Race cultivators were reaped of their souls with that slash.

Even though everyone knew that Mo Wuji intentionally used that slash as a demonstration of his power, they could not help but reel in fear. The majesty and boundless killing intent within that slash still lingered in their minds.

Even a Dao Emperor could not resist Mo Wuji. If you offended this person, then your race might really get exterminated.

Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said loudly, ”Even though everyone was discontented with how the Gods Race was bullying all of us, I, Mo Wuji, still have to thank everyone for lending a hand to help my Immortal World wrest back our five immortal cities.”

”Brother Mo, congratulations on having the five immortal cities return to their rightful owner. We still need Brother Mo to lead us to invade Gods Race’s Gods Precipice Continent,” Vampiric Race’s Ni Kai celebrated secretly in his heart. Fortunately, he had not been bent on cooperating with Gods Race’s Chai Nuo. Otherwise, he would be a person condemned in the Vampiric Race’s history.

”Wuji, you should not reject it any further. Our Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos requires a Dao Lord. Wuji, your cultivation is the strongest, so it’s natural for you to take that role.” Feng Huang brought up the topic again.

”Right, Dao Lord Mo should not push this matter away. Besides Brother Mo, there’s no one else that I would accept as the Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.” Ni Kai did not hesitate to show his agreement.

”That’s right. We agree that Brother Mo should be the first Dao Lord…”

Back in Cosmos Edge, there were still a significant number of people that disagreed. But now, almost everyone jumped to support Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji was very clear that there was no need reject this matter any further. In actuality, everyone wanted this role as the Dao Lord. However, not everyone was as strong as him. If he became the Dao Lord, the status of the Human Race in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos would rise, and the Human Race would be able to obtain more benefits. This was instrumental in the rise of the Human Race.

”Fellow daoists,” Mo Wuji clasped his fists, ”Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos has indeed been a mess for a long period of time; the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor itself is especially fraught with casual murders. Since I have the support from everyone, then I, Mo Wuji, humbly accept the position as the first Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. After the matter with the Gods Race concludes, I will organise a gathering at Cosmos Edge to discuss important matters. This First Dao Lord Estate will be constructed at the place that my Human Race used to stay in Cosmos Edge.” [1]

”Dao Lord Mo, rest assured. I, Feng Huang, promise to make the First Dao Lord Estate the number one building in the entire Cosmos Edge,” Feng Huang did not hesitate to say.

Most of the big powers had already nominated Mo Wuji as the Dao Lord. Even the address of the First Dao Lord Estate had been chosen. At this time, no one showed any dissent.

When Immortal Empress Wen Lan, Jie Ying, and Lu Ziting heard that Mo Wuji was going to be the first Dao Lord of Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, they were filled with incomparable emotions. This meant that even if Mo Wuji was no longer in Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, the Human Race wouldn’t be bullied.

Mo Wuji announced, ”Let me arrange some matters regarding the immortal cities first, then I will bring everyone to Gods Race’s Gods Precipice Continent.”

With that, Mo Wuji said to the Human Race Immortal Emperors, ”Immortal Empress Wen Lan, Sect Head Jie, Sect Head Lu, our Immortal World doesn’t have enough people. Thus, we will temporarily seal the other four immortal cities. Wait till I install more powerful arrays and till our Immortal World has more people before we open them up for use. Now, let the cultivators of our Immortal World stay in this city in front of us. From now on, this immortal city would no longer be called Very High Heavens Cosmos City. It will be called Ping Fan Immortal City.”

[1] LOL I thought he was going to split this land with the races that helped him. Scumbag much?
