Chapter 875 - Sly Old Fox! (1/2)
“Baole, what you said is right. Although I don’t know the specifics, I know that the Violet Gold civilization’s place is a mark that outsiders are unable to steal. The first emperor of the Divine Eye civilization obtained it by chance back then. It can only be transferred when the royal family is willing to do so wholeheartedly. And to the Violet Gold civilization, helping the Divine Eye royal family destroy the three greater sects is a piece of cake. Naturally, they won’t incur huge losses just for a small gain and affect their chances to enter the Planet cemetery.
“So, they decided to ally and cooperate with the royal family.”
Listening to that point, and combining it with the information he obtained previously, Wang Baole mostly understood the reason for the battle. But when he thought of how the Divine Eye civilization, which he already saw as being in his possession, was going to be taken away from him, Wang Baole still felt indignant in his heart and was in a dilemma.
“How many Planet realms does the Violet Gold civilization have?” So Wang Baole hesitated and asked again.
“There are a total of five greater sects in the Violet Gold civilization. The Heavenly Spirit Sect is ranked fifth and has three Planet realms. If we add them up together, the entire Violet Gold civilization should have 18 Planet realms!” Seeing Wang Baole’s indignance, Zhao Yameng sighed softly and continued speaking.
“According to the plan, they originally didn’t need to come here in waves. But an unforeseen event happened to the Divine Eye royal family and made it such that the Eternal Star gate couldn’t be completely opened in one go to enable the whole Violet Gold civilization army to descend…” Speaking to that point, Zhao Yameng swept a glance at Wang Baole and already had guesses and answers in her heart.
“After the accident happened, the Heavenly Spirit Sect was assigned to be the first wave of descenders. Their mission isn’t to eliminate the three greater sects by themselves but to open the Eternal Star gate again here and enable the second wave to descend successfully. They will complete the elimination of the three greater sects together while preparing to enter the Planet cemetery.”
Wang Baole furrowed his eyebrows. He understood why the Heavenly Spirit Sect retreated to the Eternal Star after suffering a setback in the battles against the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect and Violet Gold New Dao Sect. Although Wang Baole also felt that the Divine Eye civilization would be eliminated after hearing that information, the indignance in his heart made him feel that as opposed to just giving up, he should try fighting since there might be a chance to turn things around.
Thinking to that point, Wang Baole took a deep breath.
“Yameng, stay here for the time being. When this thing is settled, I’ll take you back to Earth no matter the outcome!”
Being suddenly captured by Wang Baole, and with the scene being witnessed by many Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples, Zhao Yameng also understood that even if she returned and her master protected her, it would be difficult to explain herself. So she nodded. Just like that, as Wang Baole took a step, he brought Zhao Yameng along as he left the underground of the main star where his true body was with a flick of his body. When he appeared, he was already in the cosmos. With another flick, he moved with astonishing speed as he headed straight for the Sovereign Planet.
The two of them returned very quickly as Wang Baole sped back. After sending Zhao Yameng to the Soul Rift Legion base, Wang Baole wasted no time, instantly arriving within the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s mountain gate.
His status and identity were different from before. When he arrived, he didn’t even need to report his arrival. And he didn’t hide his Divine Will disturbances, instead, dispersing it directly while he arrived.
“Patriarch, Long Nanzi greets you!” Even though the Sovereign Patriarch gave him a sufficiently high status and started calling him Fellow Daoist, Wang Baole was still very tactful and proficient at interpersonal relations. He was very clear that he wasn’t a Planet realm. It would be fine if he didn’t display his strength, as being humble wouldn’t have much effect and would cause people to underestimate him. But now that his strength had already been recognized, being humble would have a different effect on people.
So the moment his Divine Will spread, a vortex instantly appeared in mid-air in front of him. The vortex was like a skylight, as it showed the world where birds were chirping and flowers were blooming within it. One could see a lake and a penthouse beside the lake. At that moment, the patriarch was sitting there and nodding while smiling at Wang Baole through the vortex. He felt very satisfied in his heart at the fact that Wang Baole was still referring to him as the patriarch. However, deep in his eyes, a sense of greed unnoticeable by outsiders flashed past when he saw Wang Baole.
“Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi, I trust you’ve received my voice transmission? Come over!” Hiding his inner greed, the Sovereign Patriarch got up while smiling.
Wang Baole took a stride and stepped into the vortex. When he arrived, he was already outside the penthouse and beside the Sovereign Patriarch. The moment he arrived, he bowed to the patriarch with cupped fists.
“Patriarch, I was still cultivating just now. Please forgive me for coming late.”
