Chapter 1981 Human

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Unsurprisingly, if the news could get to Star River, there were others that were aware of the commotion that Ryu had kicked up. So, it was even less surprising that they would be here. The moment the group crossed the rainbow wall, they had been sensed by several existences. The good news was that these existences were extremely spread out. After all, their first role was to defend the border. This had been a pre-emptive measure taken just in case the Fiends truly went crazy.

The bad news was that they were undoubtedly hostile.

Just to make it through the wall the first time, Star River had certainly broken a great deal of rules. On top of that, the Human Emperor was on a mission and shouldn't be allowed to return right now. Then there was Hope, who was an unregistered, unknown Dao God.

And finally, there was the greatest sinner of them all, Ryu, who they would have surely preferred to have died on the other side.

It could be said, then, that all four of them were rebels, traitors, or whatever word you would like to use to describe criminals that should be hunted down to the last man.

It was as though at that moment a man riding on the back of a lion with a flaming mane crashed to the ground. Mountains collapsed and overturned.

A Middle God.

There was clearly very little respect. With a Higher God like the Human Emperor present, a Middle God should be obedient to the point of tucking their tail.

Then there was the fact that Star River was also a Higher God. But she was in disguise currently, not wanting to implicate the Rebirthing Cultus Sect in all likelihood.

Unfortunately, this flaming Fey didn't care in the slightest.

Ryu couldn't help but chuckle.

"Kill him."

The Human Emperor's eyes widened as his head snapped toward Ryu.

"Do you want to waste time here? I promise you that they will take this opportunity to knock you down several pegs. Whatever pathetic holdings the humans have left in this world will be crushed."

"But-"

Ryu continued to speak as though he couldn't sense the Human Emperor's anxiety.

"I also can't believe my Human Race has fallen to such a level. You know, I've never been to a world where Humans aren't King. You're really dropping the ball here!"

The Human Emperor's gaze flickered.

It sounded like Ryu was being the same unruly teen he always was, but the words suddenly hit the Human Emperor in a different way.

Other worlds? Humans were King?

Suddenly, he made a decision.

His palm slammed out with a vicious momentum.

The Fey was taken aback, his eyes widened. He had never expected this to happen.

"Stop!" Star River called out. But she was a step late, not having expected the Human Emperor to actually listen to Ryu.

From what she knew, the Human Emperor was a very mild-tempered man who often kept his head lowered. He didn't try to stir up trouble anywhere because it would only implicate his people.

But now he wanted to kill a Dao God under the umbrella of the Sun Fey? What the hell was he thinking?!

This wouldn't just be a normal fallout, especially considering the commotion that was already being kicked up.

The palm landed.

"You-!"

The Middle God Fey didn't even have the time to react before he was smashed to a pulp.

The gap between a Middle and Higher God was so large that the former didn't even have a right to resist.

This was an insurmountable gap.

"Let's go," Ryu said.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Star River put her hands to her head, truly feeling like tearing her hair out.

Insane. She was in bed with insane people.

However, that was when something that made her eyes widen happened.

The Human Emperor's body shook and a bottleneck he shouldn't have even been close to suddenly loosened. Then, all at once, his aura underwent a shocking breakthrough.

It was so powerful that Star River was sent stumbling several steps back. But her shock was so great that she didn't seem to notice at all.

The commotion was fierce. So fierce that there wasn't a single Dao God of the Real Plane that didn't sense it. And, every Peak Dao of the Chaos Plane did.

The only ones who might have been left in the dark were those stuck in Ioly Worlds, holding down the fort. And yet, the most powerful of them also sensed it.

A Peak Dao God had been born.

All of the Dao Gods tried to think of who it might be. But the only one with enough experience and who was close enough was the Human Emperor...

And that was simply unacceptable to them. There was no way they could accept such a thing.

It took many hours before the Human Emperor's aura settled down, his eyes flickering with one part confusion and another part gratitude.

"There's no need to be confused. Your Dao is about protection, but offense is a sort of defense as well."

Enlightenment washed over the Human Emperor when he heard these words, and having only just broken free of one breakthrough, he seemed to be having another.

However, this time, he couldn't help but look toward this young man with awe.

Even Dao Gods wouldn't dare to casually comment on the Dao of their juniors, regardless of how low-level the Dao was. If they were going to, they would have to be incredibly subtle. Yet, Ryu did it as though he was just waving a hand. He even mentioned the word Dao on purpose.

Just what kind of monster was he?

Under the shocked gaze of Star River, the Human Emperor's Dao actually progressed from the

Middle Founding Grade to the Higher Founding Grade.

That was actually a level beyond hers. And now that he was a Peak Dao God...

She didn't even have the right to question him any longer.

And yet, this still felt like the beginning.
