God Emperor
Chapter 2321 - Each With Their Own Ulterior Motives
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The 2,000-meter-long purple meteorite crashed heavily on Mistress Fireborn’s body. A surging purple murderous aura rushed into her body and destroyed her vitality.
The red flame on Mistress Fireborn’s body was extinguished. She screamed and fell rapidly.
Rumble
The purple meteorite hit Mistress Fireborn again, turning her Neverwilt body into a bloody mess as if she was about to explode.
Just as the purple meteorite was about to launch its third attack, the 8,000 words of the Scroll of Truth and Deceit flew over. In an instant, a laugh came from the purple meteorite as it disappeared without a trace.
“Saint Lord Zuo Mu is too cunning. He doesn’t even fight head-on with the Supreme Artifact. He would run right after he attacked.”
Supreme Saint Yuan Fei’s state of mind was usually very calm. But he had lost two Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints of Great Perfection level in an instant. No matter how good one’s state of mind was, they would go mad.
He had never suffered such a loss, even when he fought against the three middle clans.
Mistress Fireborn, covered in blood, was floating in the void like a red leaf. There were living signs but no active signs of spiritual power. She entered a state of unconsciousness.
“Hurry back and meet us.”
Pan Ruo sent Lord Sinluo a message through voice transmission.
Lord Sinluo was also frightened. He released all of his spiritual power. While he was wary of his surroundings, he flew in the direction of the Scroll of Truth and Deceit.
Supreme Saint Yuan Fei split his spiritual power into two and sent them to the side of Mistress Fireborn and Mad Whitejade Lion to check on their condition.
“Luckily, they are still alive,” said Supreme Saint Yuan Fei.
Pan Ruo sighed and waved her hand. “Ask the vessel spirit of the Mystic Eye of Myriad Realms to send them out of the battlefield.”
Supreme Saint Yuan Fei was helpless and finally nodded his head.
The injuries of Mistress Fireborn and Mad Whitejade Lion were too severe. There was no way they could recover during Celestial-Hunting Festival. It’d be best to send them out of the battlefield.
After Mistress Fireborn and Mad Whitejade Lion were sent out, Supreme Saint Yuan Fei sighed. “If all of us had followed your proposal to stick together, no matter how strong Saint Lord Zuo Mu was, he would not have succeeded. Losing two Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints was disadvantageous
to us.”
Pan Ruo remained calm. She said, “Saint Lord Zuo Mu was an ascendant from Snowman Clan. He was later taken in as a disciple by the leader of the Fane of Meteorite. He was extremely talented and was known as the Supreme Saint with the highest potential to attain divinity. It was a pity that he was too
eager for success. In order to break through his cultivation realm at the greatest speed, he had been controlled by his inner demon. Within a few months, he had refined more than ten planets of the Asurans.
“The Supreme Saint from the Fane of Meteorite rushed over to stop him but was killed instead.
“He killed seven Supreme Saints of the Fane of Meteorite in a row when he was on the run to a desolate starry space region. In the end, he was captured by the Destiny Guards.
“Although Saint Lord Zuo Mu was at the mid-stage of the Thousand-Koan Realm, with his talent and cultivation in the Path of Dimension, his battle prowess won’t be inferior to a peak-stage Thousand-Koan Realm elite.
“Of course, after entering the Celestial-Hunting battlefield, his spiritual power has been sealed, and he only has one meteorite armor to use. Hence, his attack power should not be so horrifying.
“However, he should still be able to reach the advanced stage of the Thousand-Koan Realm.”
Supreme Saint Yuanfei nodded slightly and said, “It seems that even if we have the Scroll of Truth and Deceit, the two of us may not be a match for Saint Lord Zuo Mu. This battle has become difficult!”
Pan Ruo stared at Zhang Ruochen and Que Fei, who were still in an intense fight. She narrowed her eyes and said, “Ask Que Fei to return. Only with the combined strength of the four of us can we deter Saint Lord Zuo Mu. As for Zhang Ruochen…”
Under the protection of the 8,000 Words of Truth and Deceit, Lord Sinluo returned to the Scroll of Truth and Deceit. With lingering fear, he asked, “What exactly happened to Mad Whitejade Lion and Mistress Fireborn? Is It Lord Homnless? Or is it Luo Shengtian?”
Yuan Fei explained Pan Ruo’s speculation to him.
Lord Sinluo slapped his forehead and showed regret. He said, “Pan Ruo is very thoughtful. If I had listened to her earlier, how could I have lost today?”
“Not yet.”
Pan Ruo said again, “Now that there are three major forces, we still have a chance to kill Zhang Ruochen and take his treasures.
“However, before that, perhaps we can join hands with Zhang Ruochen to get rid of Saint Lord Zuo Mu.”
“Join hands? How could Zhang Ruochen possibly join hands with us?” Lord Sinluo smirked and shook his head.
Pan Ruo’s face remained emotionless. Her eyes were deep. “Saint Lord Zuo Mu is our common enemy and a great threat to Zhang Ruochen. He might join hands with us. There is no perpetual enemy.”
Moyin, who looked like an evil demonic beauty, swallowed all Hundred-Shackle Realm Celestial Captives. It rushed to the nearby starry region and landed on a cosmic rock. Its aura became stronger.
Zhang Ruochen and Que Fei had already discovered Saint Lord Zuo Mu’s presence. They didn’t dare to continue fighting and separated.
Dark patterns flowed on Zhang Ruochen’s arm. The cold Power of Darkness eroded half of his body.
Que Fei did not gain any advantage either. He was hit in the abdomen by Zhang Ruochen’s last sword strike. The Time Marks entered his body and cut off 300 years of his lifespan. He was weakened.
Moyin walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side and asked with concen, “Master, your injury…”
“It’s okay.”
Zhang Ruochen stood straight, his eyes bright, his temperament outstanding. Although there was no trace of blood on his face, there were three wounds on his chest. Nevertheless, his condition did not affect his fighting spirit at the slightness.
As long as his fighting spirit remained, no one would dare to treat him as a severely injured person.
Creak, creak
Moyin’s snow-white fingers grabbed Zhang Ruochen’s wrist and absorbed the Dark Power that invaded his body bit by bit, transferring it into its own body.
As a Saint Devourer, there were very few powers in the world that it could not absorb.
Pan Ruo stared at Zhang Ruochen and Moyin’s intimate scene. But her expression remained the same. She said, “Zhang Ruochen, we are all hunters. Why don’t we work together to get rid of the prey who is lurking in the dark?”
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ruochen agreed without hesitation.
“Okay, but I’d like to know. How are we going to split the points after killing him?” Zhang Ruochen said.
Lord Sinluo snorted. “The points for the twelve Hundred-Shackle Realm Celestial Captives are enough for Bloodysky Clan to get a high ranking among the Immortal Vampires. Do you still want the points for a Thousand -Koan Realm Celestial Captive?
“If you refuse to join hands with us, you will end up dying in the hands of that Thousand-Koan Realm slave.”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were indifferent. He didn’t even look at him. Instead, he kept staring at Pan Ruo’s beautiful face and said, “If that’s your attitude, I won’t accompany you. Moyin, let’s go.”
“Wait.”
Pan Ruo glared at Lord Sinluo with her bright eyes. “A Supreme Saint’s vitality is very strong,” she said. “He is hard to kill. Only if we work together and use our Supreme Artifacts will we have a chance to kill the Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive. After we get rid of him, we’ll split the points equally.
‘What do you think?”
Mo Yin’s delicate body leaned gently to Zhang Ruochen’s side. She whispered in his ear, “Master, don’t believe her. After killing the Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive, we will become their next target.”
Zhang Ruochen ignored Moyin and said, “I have a better suggestion. Why don’t the points go to whoever kills him?”
Hearing this, Lord Sinluo, Que Fei, and Yuan Fei all laughed. Zhang Ruochen’s suggestion was their wish.
“Alright, it’s decided,” Pan Ruo said.
Such a powerful Thousand-Koan Realm slave must have more than three million points.
No matter what, Zhang Ruochen had to kill him. He couldn’t let him fall into the hands of other Supreme Saints of Infernal Court.
To lead Bloodysky Clan to the first place among the ten great clans, to make Immortal Vampires the first of the ten clans, to accumulate the highest total points, this was something he had to do.
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that the reason that the twelve Celestial Captives and that Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive appeared must have something to do with Pan Ruo.
It was hard to get a second chance like this.
“TIl force him out first.”
Zhang Ruochen grabbed Violet Gourd and poured Saint Qi into it. As he activated the Dimensional Inscriptions and Supreme Inscriptions on the Gourd, he secretly transmitted his voice to the Saint Devourer, “When I attack them, you finish them off as fast as possible.”
“Them? Master, are you talking about the cultivators of the three upper clans? Aren’t we cooperating with them? Why are we attacking them? Even if we finish them off, how are we going to fight against that Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive?”
Moyin was surprised. She hadn’t expected Zhang Ruochen, who had just agreed to team up with Pan Ruo’s faction, to plot against them.
Pan Ruo and the others won’t see this coming.’
He didn’t explain much to Moyin. The Supreme Inscriptions and Dimensional Inscriptions in the Violet Gourd were activated. They shone with a dazzling purple-gold light, illuminating the entire starry sky.
“It’s Supreme Power. Zhang Ruochen’s Gourd is a Supreme Artifact. No wonder it’s so powerful. This should be his greatest trump card.”
Que Fei was shocked. He thought about it carefully,’ If Zhang Ruochen used the Supreme Power of Violet Gourd in our fight, would I be able to resist his attack”
Supreme Saint Yuan Fei couldn’t open his eyes because of the purple-gold light. He used his hand to block it. When he moved his hand away, he realized that Zhang Ruochen had used the Great Dimensional Shift to appear in front of him. He was only a hundred miles away from them.
“Oh no. Quickly activate the Scroll of Truth and Deceit.”
Supreme Saint Yuanfei reacted the fastest. He stepped on the scroll.
Whoosh!
The scroll, which was only 30 meters long, expanded quickly, revealing more words. It became more than 50 kilometers long, more than 50 kilometers long… and it continued to grow bigger. It released more and more Supreme Power.
Words flew out of the scroll and tightly wrapped around the four of them.
KABOOM!
The Dimensional Array at the mouth of the Gourd covered the scroll.
Immediately after, the dimension within the Array rapidly collapsed, so was the defensive barrier formed by thousands of words.
Whoosh
A streak of scarlet-golden Supreme Power surged out of the mouth of the Gourd and transformed into a pillar of flame that was dozens of meters in diameter. It charged toward the scroll.
The defense of the scroll only lasted for a moment. The four people standing on the scroll were all knocked out of it and sent flying.
“Zhang Ruochen, you b*stard, you broke your words. I want you dead…” The pillar of fire hit Lord Sinluo. Half of his right body melted. He grimaced in pain and couldn’t even curse properly.
Yuan Fei and Que Fei were distinctive powerful elites who had survived hundreds of battles and were highly intelligent. Yet, they were caught off guard by Zhang Ruochen. They were dumbstruck, unable to figure out what was going on.
‘A Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive is still lurking around. Why did Zhang Ruochen attack us?
‘Didn’t he afraid that the Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive would take advantage at the end of our fight?
“Zhang Ruochen is too sinister. From the beginning, he planned to get rid of us first. Oh no, that Saint Devourer is here. Everyone, break out of the encirclement and leave this space region first,” Pan Ruo said.
She wasn’t injured. Zhang Ruochen didn’t target her since her cultivation was the lowest.
The Saint Devourer’s lightning vines spread toward them from different directions. Its intention was obvious: it wanted to trap them inside and kill them.
Yuan Fei and Que Fei had both been hit by the Supreme Power. They suffered different degrees of injuries. Hence, they didn’t dare to resume the fight. They used the Scroll of Truth and Deceit to clear a path and killed their way out.
Pan Ruo was one step ahead of them. She flew out of the range of the lightning vines.
Lord Sinluo wasn’t as lucky as them. He was wrapped like a dumpling by the vines. After being struck by lightning thousands of times, he finally stopped struggling and fainted. He became the Saint Devourer’s captive.
“Don’t swallow him yet. I have use of him.”
Zhang Ruochen spread his arms. Boundless power erupted from his body. Like a storm, it swept across thousands of miles of starry sky.
‘Wherever the storm passed, space shattered.
Countless tiny Dimensional Cracks were torn open. The purple meteorite had no place to hide. It had to reveal itself.
The purple meteorite was surrounded by a powerful force. Even Zhang Ruochen’s Dimensional Storm couldn’t tear the space there.
“Zhang Ruochen, you’re quite a ruthless character. You dared to scheme against the cultivators of the upper three clans and fight me alone.
“If you hadn’t been injured and were in your prime, you could be strong enough to fight me.
“But now, you’re simply courting death.”
The deep voice resounded through heaven and earth.
Whoosh
Above the purple meteorite, a light flashed and a 60-foot-tall figure appeared.
It looked like a human.
Saint Lord Zuo Mu emitted a cold aura, turning the starry sky into a sky full of flying snow. It was an eerie scene.
A moment later, the purple meteorite was covered in snow and turned white.
Zhang Ruochen was already at the end of his rope. He had used Violet Gourd and Dimensional Storm. Now, he had no energy left to fight.
His consciousness became blurry. If it wasn’t for his willpower, he would have already fallen.
However, he had no other choice. He could only do that.
If he chose to cooperate with the upper three clans, whether he attacked or not, he would expose himself. All the deities were watching, Pan Ruo could help him secretly, but she would never do so openly.
If Lord Sinluo and the others knew that he couldn’t attack, how could he leave alive today?
Ifhe left directly and didn’t cooperate with the upper three clans, his condition could get exposed and get himself killed.
Of course, what Zhang Ruochen was more afraid of was that the upper three clans would cooperate with the Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive to get rid of him first.
Therefore, the only way to survive was to agree to join hands then get rid of the cultivators of the upper three clans by surprise. That Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive might seem powerful and invincible, but he had a huge weakness.
He was not a threat to Zhang Ruochen at all.
Zhang Ruochen was not afraid of a Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saint whose spiritual power was sealed..
