Chapter 1249 – Rebellious Thieves
Bai Yujing jumped in shock. She had a good understanding of Qin Mu’s character, so she rejected him before he could say anything. She didn’t expect Qin Mu to be so terrifying when he said that idea.
“Who’s following us? You traitor!”
She couldn’t help but be angry, but her heart started to stir. Now that Celestial Venerable Hao was severely injured, and the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu only had his head left, Celestial Venerable Hao couldn’t move. Now was the best time to get rid of him!
It wasn’t just Celestial Venerable Hao, but also the chance to get rid of the Grand Emperor and Heavenly Lady Qiang!
If he could find them and kill Celestial Venerable Hao and the Grand Emperor…
Her heart pounded wildly. This temptation was too great. Even though she was a heavenly master of the celestial heavens, she couldn’t resist this temptation.
‘Getting rid of the strongest of the primordial era and the strongest of the current era in one go…’ She seemed to have heard her own thoughts, but she immediately reacted. This was Qin Mu whispering in her ear.
Bai Yujing pushed Qin Mu to the side and said, “I’m a heavenly master of the celestial heavens, so I can’t do as you do. However, as a heavenly master of the celestial heavens, I have to treat Celestial Venerable Hao as my responsibility and not let him be in danger.”
She said indifferently, “However, if someone kills Celestial Venerable Hao before me, I can only cry my eyes out.”
Qin Mu laughed loudly.
Bai Yujing rolled her eyes at him, feeling both angry and amused at the same time. “Don’t be happy so early, I won’t work with you… The divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu’s head is over there, let’s go that way!”
Lan Yutian was still comprehending the Dao. Qin Mu opened the lantern door and stuffed him into the lantern, allowing him to comprehend.
Although Lan Yutian’s talent wasn’t bad, his abilities were too weak to be of use in chasing after Celestial Venerable Hao.
Bai Yujing shook her head. “We can’t use lanterns. If someone sees us, they will definitely guess our identity.”
Qin Mu thought about it and kept the lantern.
The lantern belonged to Celestial Venerable Yue, and he had once traveled around with it. Furthermore, Bai Yujing had a lot to do with Celestial Venerable Yue. Celestial Venerable Huo and Son of Heaven Yin knew that Bai Yujing was Celestial Venerable Yue’s disciple and the reincarnation of South Deity’s soul.
The lanterns could indeed expose their identities.
In the main camp of the celestial heavens, Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu descended almost at the same time. They landed on the ground and staggered.
Celestial Venerable Huo grunted and turned his head to press down on his mouth, swallowing back the blood that had rushed to his throat.
The flaming wheels behind his head were tattered and almost extinguished. Dozens of sword wounds also appeared on his body, which were left behind by Founding Emperor.
Other than the wounds left behind by Founding Emperor, he also had injuries left behind by consciousness. Those were wounds left behind by the Grand Emperor.
These wounds looked like external injuries, but the internal injuries were even more severe. Within Celestial Venerable Huo’s body, in his divine treasures and celestial palaces, countless sword lights were rampaging, accompanied by Great Overarching Consciousness Skies.
Celestial Venerable Huo quickly walked into his hall and raised his hand to ring the bell. Immediately, palace maids came over.
Celestial Venerable Huo instructed, “Invite Red Deity over.”
Not long later, Red Deity Qi Xiayu came into the hall and bowed to Celestial Venerable Huo.
Celestial Venerable Huo suppressed his injuries and said, “Although the annihilation of the void will affect this place, it won’t destroy the Great Void. You don’t have to worry. Red Deity, Celestial Venerable Hao fought with the Grand Emperor and was severely injured. He fell into the Great Void. Don’t make a fuss and bring some experts to find Celestial Venerable Hao. This is the best time for you to make a contribution.”
Red Deity Qi Xiayu was astonished. She bowed to receive the order and planned to leave to find experts.
“Wait!” Celestial Venerable Huo called out to her.
Qi Xiayu stopped and looked at Celestial Venerable Huo in doubt.
Celestial Venerable Huo stood up and walked around unsteadily. After a moment, he made up his mind and said in a low voice, “Red Deity, if Celestial Venerable Hao’s injuries are too severe, then, then…”
He raised his palm and slanted it downwards. “Do you understand?”
Red Deity Qi Xiayu’s heart trembled, and she nodded solemnly.
“Go quickly.” Celestial Venerable Huo waved his hand.
In another hall, Celestial Venerable Xu also suppressed his injuries and instructed his trusted heavenly king, Heavenly Lord Xi Muhong, to say, “Celestial Venerable Hao was severely injured by the traitor, the Grand Emperor. We don’t know if he’s dead or alive. Heaven Sovereign Xi, bring some of your trusted aides and don’t make a scene. Go find Celestial Venerable Hao.”
Heavenly Lord Xi Muhong was a handsome man, but his aura was a little sinister. “Celestial Venerable, I lead troops into battle. I should leave this to Meng Yungui and Heavenly Master Meng.”
Celestial Venerable Xu took a look at him and said calmly, “Meng Yungui may be smart, but he has a lot of selfishness. He’s not as pure as you. Go ahead, wait a moment!”
She looked at Heavenly Lord Xi. “If Celestial Venerable Hao is seriously injured and can’t be treated, you should know what to do, right?”
Xi Tianjun was astonished and said with a smile, “Celestial Venerable, you should have done so long ago! I shall take my leave and settle this great matter. I won’t disappoint you, Celestial Venerable!”
Celestial Venerable Xu let out a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, “There should be quite a number of people looking for Celestial Venerable Hao now, right? Other than Celestial Venerable Huo and me, I’m afraid that Celestial Venerable Qin of Founding Emperor and Divine King of creation called Lang Wo will also send out their elite soldiers to take this opportunity to kill Celestial Venerable Hao. However, this is indeed the best time to kill Celestial Venerable Hao!”
Just as she had expected, Yan Yunxi received Founding Emperor’s order and immediately summoned Lü Zheng, the donkey, to set off.
At this moment, numerous masters of creation’s elders roared and rushed out in all directions.
Yan Yunxi retracted her gaze and saw an old bull running over. Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher Zhou Cha sat on the bull’s back and said solemnly, “Heavenly Teacher Zi Xi, let me help you.”
Yan Yunxi was a little unhappy when she saw a black tiger running over. Saint Woodcutter sat on the tiger’s back and said, “I’ll help too.”
Yan Yunxi’s gaze wandered around them. One of them was extremely brave, while the other was extremely intelligent. They were both people she liked, but they weren’t perfect.
“Only Jiang Baigui…” She shook her head.
Bai Yujing and Qin Mu rushed towards the place where the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu’s head had fallen. The two of them searched around, and Bai Yujing checked the techniques and divine arts he had used to travel. She asked, “Did Master Yue not teach you the art of space?”
Qin Mu shook his head. “Every time I go to see her, I don’t see her. She’s always hiding behind the screen. Have you seen her?”
Bai Yujing also shook her head. “I want to see her, but I don’t dare. She… she was injured by Celestial Venerable Huo?”
Qin Mu recalled how he had helped Celestial Venerable Yue enter the path in her dream and said, “She was disfigured by Celestial Venerable Huo.”
Bai Yujing was silent.
Suddenly, the two of them stopped and saw a strange world in front of them that was like a nightmare. There were devils in their hearts that were twisted everywhere. These devils were of all shapes and sizes and were the fear in the hearts of gods and devils.
The Land of the Great Void originally had heart devils, but they were strange. They weren’t the heart devils of the people who came to the Land of the Great Void, but the heart devils of the past masters of creation.
These devils came from the battle when the Grand Emperor attacked the Great Void.
The Grand Emperor’s supreme consciousness realm was broken by Yun, Ling, and Yue, and he died on the Lotus Continent. The Land of the Great Void collapsed. At that time, the masters of creation tried to restore the Land of the Great Void to its original state, but they couldn’t.
Their visualization turned the Land of the Great Void into a place that would always return to its original state no matter how much it was destroyed. Even if the heart devils were killed, they would reappear.
The masters of creation couldn’t survive here, so they wanted to migrate to the Paramita Void.
The heart devils now came from the crumbling void and were different from the native heart devils of the Great Void.
Boom, boom, boom. A huge corpse of a master of creation crawled out from the mountains on all four limbs. It stepped on the mountain rocks, sending them flying. Countless heart devils circled around the huge corpse.
“The void is destroyed, and the Land of the Great Void has changed again!” Qin Mu’s expression was grim. The Great Void was even more dangerous than before.
The walking corpse roared, and all the devils in his heart looked at Qin Mu and Bai Yujing.
