Chapter 816: Reunion

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Without hesitation, Zhong Yue walked right into the ruined divine temple and sat down under the menacing gaze of the many human gods who stood beside him. Consort Tian Si giggled and said upon seeing this, “Relax. Let us all have a seat. We have the upper hand now and if I say there is no escape, then there will be no escape for him.”
With that said, this gorgeous human lady had a seat and the others sat down after a brief hesitation but they still had Zhong Yue surrounded.
Zhong Yue looked around and examined these gods, noticing that the majority of them were all Heavenly Deities followed by True Deities and a few Deity Overlords, to which he said, “Never thought that the Consort had built such a strong powerbase outside the Human Sovereign Palace. Without relying on the Human Sovereign Palace, you must have struggled through a lot in order to achieve this.”
Consort Tian Si, however, did not address Zhong Yue’s comments and she said with a sweet smile, “Anymore useless words coming from your mouth, I will kill you, Mister Yi.”
Zhong Yue answered her with a laugh and said, “May I ask which race the Consort came from in your previous life?”
“I have no previous life.” shook Consort Tian Si after she was stunned for a second.
Zhong Yue smiled and said, “I have a way. Please look at this divine mirror of mine.”
With his fingers reached out and with a simple wave, totem patterns flowed out from his fingers and formed a divine mirror where there were six light wheels that contained the Reincarnation power in it.
The expressions of others changed right away and just as they were about to act, Consort Tian Si faced towards the mirror and said, “What did you see, Mister Yi?”
This divine mirror of Zhong Yue’s was actually a technique he developed based on the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror and this was a technique capable of revealing everything about one in their past life, but Zhong Yue saw nothing in the mirror.
He then faced his mirror towards the other gods and to his surprise and confusion, none of these human gods had gone through reincarnation.
“Rest assured, Mister Yi, if there are one of them that reborn, he will not be able to hide from my art of Karma.”
Consort Tian Si’s beautiful eyes blinked and asked, “What are you trying to do, Mister Yi? Is there a need to be that careful?”
Zhong Yue dispersed the divine mirror right away and asked again, “Under whom are you serving right now, Consort Tian Si?”
Consort Tian Si burst out laughing right away and she left Zhong Yue’s question unanswered, “If you ask any more questions, I will be left with no choice but to kill you!”
Zhong Yue laughed right away and said, “Do you think I will come here alone if I had no backup plans or any way to protect myself?”
Consort Tian Si’s expression stiffened up and she smirked, “You brought Zi Guang with you?”
“Of course not. He is eager to kill me and you think I will be friends with him? I am here to see you in order to team up with you against him. Consort Tian Si, I wish to learn and exchange knowledge from you about the art of Karma so that I can overwhelm him in intelligence.”
Consort Tian Si frowned and after looking at Zhong Yue from head to toes, she suddenly sneered, “You are trying to triumph against him and replace him?”
Zhong Yue kept quiet and Consort Tian Si shook her head after some consideration, “I will only be strengthening Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s power if I exchange ideas and discuss the art of Karma with you. Why would I do that?”
Zhong Yue answered, “Do you think you can win against Zi Guang?”
Consort Tian Si mocked right away, “One Zi Guang is already more than enough. With your addition, things would be even harder for me. You wish to obtain my art of Karma in order to know my roots and if you team up with Zi Guang after that, I will die in no time. Mister Yi, I fear that you have wasted your time in coming here, I will never tell you my art of Karma.”
Zhong Yue sighed at Consort Tian Si’s rejection; though she was talented, she had no trust in him. But if Zhong Yue were in her shoes, he wouldn’t trust her either; after all, she was serving an unknown power and if he revealed his secrets to her, he would be dead meat if she sold him out.
“I am intrigued. How many brilliant humans like the Consort are out there?”
Zhong Yue lowered down his conditions and asked, “Who is your husband?”
Consort Tian Si smiled and replied, “We humans produced abundant talents each year but none from the Human Sovereign Palace. Thank you for your concern, Mister Yi. Whereas my husband, he is also a talented human who knows a lot, if you survive, I suppose you will get to know him one day.”
From her tone, Zhong Yue noticed her dissatisfaction towards the Human Sovereign and she did not even reveal anything to Zhong Yue.
“Then I suppose the feeling is not mutual between us.”
Zhong Yue stood up and said, “I thought I ran into someone I could share my knowledge with but I never thought that you’d be so wary towards me. If that’s the way it is, then all I can do is excuse myself.”
Under the fierce gaze of the human gods, Zhong Yue walked towards the exit. The human gods immediately sought further instructions from Consort Tian Si, who was also hesitating. Previously, she knew nothing about King Zi Guang’s intelligence, thus, she was happy when she ran into Zhong Yue who was also an expert in the art of Karma. But now, after knowing how powerful King Zi Guang was, she feared that she would place herself in danger by keeping Zhong Yue alive.
“Consort, if I tell you that I am not a reincarnated innate god but a human, will you believe me?” asked Zhong Yue as he suddenly stopped and turned around at the exit.
Consort Tian Si was shocked for a second and she mocked, “I will not! No human can be that strong like you! If you’re not a reincarnated innate god, who is?”
With a nod, Zhong Yue turned around and flew away like a meteor.
“Consort, should we catch up with him and….” said a human god fiercely as he did a cutting throat gesture.
This man is fooling with my mind so that he can escape alive!
Consort Tian Si immediately cleared the confusion in her and without hesitation, she flew up and chased after Zhong Yue as she smirked, “So be it! You won’t escape from my calculations!”
In just a short time, Zhong Yue had disappeared.
The Karmic Lines in Consort Tian Si’s Dao Yi Secret Realm immediately twined around and calculated Zhong Yue’s movement and suddenly, with a soft groan from Consort Tian Si, Zhong Yue’s Karmic Lines broke.
Cutting my Karmic Lines? This brat is improving quickly!
Consort Tian Si was caught off guard, but this new development also piqued her interest in Zhong Yue. She felt a power sneakily corrupting her and with a grin, she took out her zither and strummed it softly, destroying Zhong Yue’s Karmic Lines. “I can’t calculate you and neither can you!”
The many human gods finally caught up and they all asked, “Consort, what do we do now?”
“Report back to Master and request for immediate support!”
Consort Tian Si took out a bunch of incense and started praying. The smoke released by the burning incenses then turned into the figure of the black-robed man while Consort Tian Si bowed ad said, “Master, I’ve completed my mission but King Zi Guang’s intelligence is fearful. That human man from Xian Tian Palace is called Yi Feng and he is also an expert in the art of Karma. He is currently in the Imperial Star now and I hope that you can send out people to kill him right here!”
The black-robed man said, “Yi Feng? I know him. He is a reincarnated innate god and I know about his origins. If he surrenders, you will be my left arm and he will be my right arm. With that, King Zi Guang will no longer a problem for us! I will send a squad to you and bring him to me alive.”
Consort Tian Si frowned but as much as she wanted to kill Zhong Yue, she didn’t dare to go against her master’s orders. With no choice left for her, she nodded and said, “The problem here is that he ran away and I’ve failed to locate him. Can Master help me?”
“Of course. Wuji, follow Consort Tian Si and listen to her while you aid her in locating this Yi Feng.”
The smoke suddenly intensified and ignited, turning into a fiery door while gods started walking out from the door under the lead of a young man with three heads, each carrying a smile on his faces.
These gods were all Deity Overlords but this young man was just a Heavenly Deity. However, the Deity Overlords seemed to be very respectful toward this young man.
“Greetings, Consort Tian Si. I am the Xiao Mang Celestial Race’s Xiao Wuji,” said the young man as he bowed at Consort Tian Si, “Consort Tian Si, do you have anything that carries that Yi Feng’s scent? Anything will do.”
Consort Tian Si looked at this Xiao Mang Celestial race’s young man and suddenly asked, “You are a human too?”
The young man stood up straight immediately and laughed happily, “You must be kidding me, Consort Tian Si. I am from the Xiao Mang Celestial Race’s member, how can I possibly be a human?”
This young man was Feng Wuji, the man that walked out from the Ancestral Star before Zhong Yue but now, his name was Xiao Wuji.
“You have the bloodline of a human,” said Consort Tian Si coldly upon his denial.
Feng Wuji frowned slightly and this time, he replied with a slightly cold attitude, “Consort Tian Si, we are both serving under the same master. I believe that it’s best for us not to make any reckless assumptions. The Heavenly Monarch has lost the qualities to become the ruler and I am here under orders from my teacher in the name to choose another brilliant ruler for the world’s sake. You should know who I am and that humans are nothing compared to my identity. Whatever you say can be ignored for the first time but do not blame me for being mercilessly if there is a second time.”
As they spoke, the incense was about to finish burning and while the black-robed man’s figure was about to disappear, he said, “Consort Tian Si, Xiao Wuji is not a human and his origin is a respectable one that even I need to respect. Please do not lose your manners in front of him. And Wuji, please do not kill that Yi Feng, bring him to me alive.”
“Your wish is my command,” bowed Feng Wuji with a smile.
With that, the incense turned into ashes and the black-robed man’s figure vanished.
Feng Wuji stood up straight again and this time, he smiled at Consort Tian Si and said, “Consort Tian Si, please don’t tell me that you do not even have anything that carries this Yi Feng’s scent.”
Consort Tian Si giggled and said, “In order to calculate his whereabouts, of course I have his scent. But with Mister Xiao’s scary origin, how come you possess a human bloodline?”
Feng Wuji frowned upon hearing this, without a sign, he grabbed onto a human god’s neck and snapped his head cold-bloodedly before hurling the body aside.
“Consort Tian Si, pardon me, I did not hear what you asked clearly, could you please repeat it?” asked Feng Wuji with a soft smile.
Consort Tian Si was furious and shocked while the other human gods all unsheathed their weapons out of anger.
Consort Tian Si looked at the Deity Overlords standing behind Feng Wuji and before she said anything, she suppressed her anger and shouted at Feng Wuji, “This is Mister Yi’s scent. Mister Xiao, I am feeling uncomfortable now, please pardon me! Let’s go!”
With that, she left with the human gods in tow.
Feng Wuji on the other hand, took over the airstream and after smelling it, he was stunned for a moment and with another smell, he laughed happily, “Never thought I would run into you here! Now, this is surprising! My beloved disciple, the disciple I taught personally, we have crossed paths once again!”
He burst out laughing and along with the Deity Lords, he charged out from the divine temple and flew away.
At the same time, Zhong Yue stopped and landed before a sacred mountain where an eight to nine-year-old boy was sneaking around suspiciously.
Zhong Yue was surprised after finding this young boy to be very familiar.
Meanwhile, after noticing Zhong Yue, this young boy blinked his eyes and turned around.
And that was when Zhong Yue realize why did this boy was so familiar looking and he shouted while he smiled happily, “Stop right there, Xing Tian!”
