Chapter 533 - 533 Moon God’s Determination
When the Water Roc saw Lin Xuan standing in the sky, it did not dare to approach him. It was well aware of Lin Xuan’s strength. He was a powerful combat force that was comparable to Mother Earth, a terrifying existence that could flatten everything in a matter of minutes.
It hurriedly came to a stop in the air and prepared to make a turn to create a safe distance. However, it did not expect Lin Xuan’s speed to fasten. In the blink of an eye, Lin Xuan had appeared beside it and wanted to capture it.
Of course, as one of the ancient gods, it was not to be trifled with. Walking on the Dao of water, its ability to escape was top-notch. Just as Lin Xuan reached out his hand to capture the Water Roc, it suddenly turned into a ball of water vapor, causing Lin Xuan to only capture air.
When it reappeared, the Water Roc was already a few hundred meters away from Lin Xuan. It did not stop for a moment and was fleeing at high speed.
This Human Emperor was terrifying. Not only did he have a body and strength comparable to Mother Earth, but he also had immense speed. Where did this monster come from? He was definitely not a human, he must be some powerful ancient god!
Lin Xuan looked at the Water Roc’s escape but did not give chase. There was really no need to. The Water Roc quickly left, and even Lin Xuan would have to spend a lot of time catching up. Furthermore, Mother Earth, the Tiger Wind God, and the Thunder Kirin were nearby. If the four ancient gods attacked him, although his life would not be in danger, he would definitely be beaten.
It wasn’t worth it!
He turned around and disappeared into the sky in a flash of yellow lightning.
…
“What?”
The bunny-eared lady sat in the Hall of Gods, reading the battle report in her hand. This battle report was written by the messenger who had gone to reply to the letter. It clearly stated the situation of the temporary residence of the God of War in the eastern barren, and it also stated that several masters had had a terrifying battle there. Finally, she reached the summary of the situation — all the gods of the eastern barren were killed.
Not even a single one was left?!
The bunny-eared lady sat on the divine throne in a daze, and the battle report in her hand fell unconsciously. She leaned back on the chair, and countless thoughts rolled in her mind, but they were all rejected one by one.
The fallen battle report was picked up by the other gods. All the gods who saw the battle report narrowed their eyes and screamed loudly, attracting the attention of the other gods.
“What should I do? What should I do? The eastern barren is finished! The eastern barren is finished!”
“It’s all their fault. Why did he lead the team to the southeast mountain range?”
“Isn’t it good to be safe and sound? Why? Why did it become like this?”
“What do you think?”
“That’s right, God of Darkness. What should we do?”
After reading the battle report, all the gods of the eastern barren realized the seriousness of the problem.
It was not a small problem that all the gods of the eastern barren were annihilated. King Ri had brought one-third of the gods to the war. He had thought that they would fight across the mountain in the southeast mountain range and come back after he was satisfied with the fight.
Who would have thought that the southeast mountain range between the two sides would suddenly tip over against them. The two sides were honest with each other and stared at each other for a while. At first, there was nothing wrong. Under the will of the strong men on both sides, they were ready to go home. Who knew that the killing intent would suddenly arise.
After the first battle, there was the second battle. If it was just the death of ordinary humans, it would not be a big deal.
However, King Ri was captured by a mysterious man, and then the remaining gods of the eastern barren were all… Well they were all annihilated.
The power of the covenant of gods had dropped by one-third. If they could just rest in peace, increase the number of humans, and rope in some wild beasts, they would soon be able to make up for the rest of the top forces. Now, the Human Emperor had led his army to the eastern barren and crossed the natural chasm between the eastern barren and the North. They were nibbling away at the eastern barren bit by bit, constantly weakening the control of the covenant of gods over the eastern barren.
A large portion of the ordinary humans who had been left outside had already been brought to the North.
In the past, the covenant of gods had abandoned these ordinary humans because it was difficult to migrate them in a short time and because the covenant of gods could not accommodate so many people. However, because of the war in the southeast, the number of divine people living in the covenant of gods had declined sharply, and they urgently needed to replenish their numbers.
However, the Human Emperor was in a town not far from the covenant of the gods.
For a moment, all the eastern barren territory fell into silence. The current situation was going from bad to worse. They had wanted to call back the gods of the eastern barren territory who had gone to war to help the covenant of gods. Even if the Human Emperor was ahead of them, he would have a fifty-fifty chance of winning against the gods of the eastern barren territory at their peak.
Now, all the gods from the eastern barren had been annihilated, and the covenant of gods had become an isolated city, which had no entrance or exit. Although the strength of the city was still there, defeat and death were inevitable, and it was just a matter of time because they would be annihilated.
“What can we do now? Surrender or fight to the death?”
“The eastern barren is not finished yet, I will not surrender! I swear to live and die with the eastern barren!”
“Why don’t we escape? We can still escape if we abandon all the divine beings. The Human Emperor is taking his time because he’s giving us more time to make a choice.”
“Hehe, you guys are so short-sighted. You only see danger and not opportunity. I’m ready to join the Human Emperor and become the sacred beast protector of the Xia Dynasty. All I would need to do is relax and enjoy the worship of the entire Xia Dynasty.”
“With your rat-like appearance, the Human Emperor will want to kill you instead.”
Some of the gods were trembling in fear as they thought of their escape route. Some of the gods were making solemn promises, but they were only putting on an act for the God of Darkness. No one knew what they were thinking. Some of the gods were calm and unperturbed, ready to surrender to the Human Emperor and become the sacred beast of the Xia Dynasty, waiting for the Xia Dynasty’s Amnesty.
Only the God of Darkness, who was sitting on the high seat, leaned back against her chair. Her face was calm, and one of her rabbit ears was folded down. Her gaze was distant, and no one knew what she was thinking.
After a while, she stood up and left without saying a word. Perhaps she was really about to make her final decision.
After the God of Darkness left, many gods’ eyes flickered. They were quick-witted and made an appointment with a few gods they were familiar with to discuss their escape route. Some surrendered, some fought back, and some fled.
In the middle of the moon, silver light shone on the earth. Outside the emperor’s palace in the eastern barren, a slender figure gradually became clear.
“The Human Emperor of the Xia Dynasty, The God of Darkness of the eastern barren requests an audience!”
