Chapter 1139: Hero or Coward
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Heavenly Monarch Di Ming is challenging Mu Xiantian to a deathmatch in half a year?”
This news spread out quickly, not only did Zhong Yue learn about this, but the others also learned this news. In an instant, an uproar rose across the universe.
This news was just way too shocking, the battle between two monarchs, one being the current Heavenly Monarch, the other being a monarch innate god. Both sides were now on horrible terms after the war had lasted so long.
And now, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was forced into the dead end, left with no other option but to fight Mu Xiantian head-on. From this, everyone could tell that Heavenly Monarch Di Ming had no more tricks up his sleeves anymore.
“Half a year later, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming will be able to open the seventh secret realm?”
Outside Southern Heaven Gate, inside Heaven Breaching Fortress, Zhong Yue was a little surprised. Back then, Zhong Yue crushed Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s chance of opening the seventh secret realm by using the pressure coming from Mu Xiantian as a drive. Such a chance was beyond rare, and Heavenly Monarch Di Ming would have to wait countless years for such chance, not to mention the difficulty increased by fold when he wanted to achieve seventh secret realm with his queen, Queen Goddess at once.
Would the duo be able to achieve the seventh secret realm in just half a year’s time?
“Senior Martial Brother Zi Gang, where is His Majesty?” Zhong Yue asked, “Any news from His Majesty?”
King Zi Guang nodded, “His Majesty has received my words, don’t worry, for too long he has waited for this battle. Now that Heavenly Monarch Di Ming requested a fight, he had just delivered what His Majesty wants into his hands. What I’m worried about is that Heavenly Monarch Di Ming has always kept a low profile so why is he doing this right now? This is definitely not his style, I fear that he has something up his sleeves.”
Zhong Yue kept quiet and suggested, “Can His Majesty’s celestial true body head out? Without his celestial true body, it will be difficult to fight against both Di Ming and Queen Goddess at once.”
King Zi Guang too, frowned, Mu Xiantian’s demon true body ascended as a monarch first, which gave it the power to seal his celestial true body. Without becoming a monarch, the celestial true body will not be able to get out. But with this battle just around the corner, how could Mu Xiantian let his celestial true body continue to cultivate?
“Mo Yin is here!”
Zhong Yue summoned the ancient ship and smiled, “Do you want to come and take a look at Mo Yin’s formation with me?”
King Zi Guang boarded the ship and replied, “You, as the commander-in-chief of the armies, are brave enough to risk yourself, so what else do I have to be worried about?”
All of a sudden, Zhong Yue caught a glimpse of Di Xiuluo, who was always following behind King Zi Guang and he had a migraine upon seeing Di Xiuluo. He did nothing however and proceeded to control the ship, sailing out from the fortress. Somewhere about five stars’ distance away, Mo Yin’s army was in a formation. They were setting up camps and their speed was still incredibly quick albeit not as fast as the Heaven Breaching Fortress’.
“How secure, there is no opening at all.”
King Zi Guang praised and he transmitted a message to Di Xiuluo, “King Yi wants to kill me just now, yes?”
Di Xiuluo nodded softly and King Zi Guang continued, “Just as I thought. If I came out alone with him, he would throw me to Mo Yin and have him deal with me.”
Zhong Yue arrived at about four stars’ distance away and continued pressing forward. Just as he was about to check on Mo Yin’s formation, there were innate gods entering his sight and enlarging quickly along with their terrifying presence.
Their aura was so condensed that it turned into an invisible wall that blocked the thousand winged ancient ship. Zhong Yue immediately felt that they had rammed onto a wind wall, creating a loud crashing noise.
“Such powerful strength… Sign of Nine-Five is really spectacular!”
Zhong Yue praised before he activated the ancient ship once again, cutting through the wind wall created by Sign of Nine-Five with ease. The Sign of Nine-Five, however, remained expressionless but they did not plan to stand aside. Energy started sparkling in their hands as they charged up their attacks but they quickly stopped for they saw Di Xiuluo standing at the front deck. The Sign of Nine-Five bowed right away and allowed the ship to pass by them.
“Heh, Senior Martial Brother Di seems to hold quite a high position.”
Zhong Yue smiled, “Even the Sign of Nine-Five had to bow before you.”
Di Xiuluo, on the other hand, still kept a cool expression and not a single word was spoken.
King Zi Guang smiled, “That’s who he is, please don’t get angry at him, King Yi.”
Meanwhile, a warship ascended into the air with Mo Yin onboard and Zhong Yue bowed, “Mister Mo.”
“Mister Yi.” greeted Mo Yin, “What do you think of my formation?”
Zhong Yue praised, “Like a spiderweb, like a web, layer after layer, deep like the abyss, dangerous like the volcano, solid like the mountain, one part moves, and everything follows suit instantly, it really is gorgeous. But, heh, there is always a but to everything, not even this can help you, for the Heaven Court’s reign is coming to an end, there is nothing you can do. In the near future, everything you built right here, your men, your formation, will all fall before my stampede.”
His words provoked the generals under Mo Yin, but when they wanted to attack, Mo Yin halted them, “Have you forgotten that the five great monarch spirits failed to defeat King Yi? There is nothing you can do about him. King Yi, you are here to take a look at my formation and here it is, lying right before you. Half a year later, however, you will know who is the final winner when Mu Xiantian dies. I’ve already prepared a perfect position for you, it will only be yours if you surrender, King Yi.”
Zhong Yue burst out laughing, “Mister Mo, how about that stone tablet that you prepared for me several times? Will I be able to see it half a year later?”
Mo Yin too, laughed as he had his men setting the stone tablet, “If you don’t surrender, this is where your head will be!”
The two then looked each other into the eyes, with Zhong Yue walking away after smiling softy.
Mo Yin smirked and without a sign, he ordered, “Push forward for another star’s distance!”
Lou Zhengshi and the others had a shock and they shouted, “King Yi is just right in front of us, if we move closer by a star’s distance, we will only be four stars’ distance away and if King Yi attacks…”
“He is already right at the Southern Heaven Gate, if he is not afraid, why should we be afraid as well?”
Mo Yin roared, “Move closer!”
Without any choice, Lou Zhengshi and the others started ordering their men and pushed forward again.
About a few days later, the camps were set and the armies gradually marched into the camps, only to have Mo Yin shout, “Move closer again!”
His words left Lou Zhengshi and the others terrified, they hurriedly went to Mo Yin, who answered, “This is the plan, we will push forth step by step, taking every precaution and eliminating every opening he has to defeat us!”
The army started operating under his orders, advancing even closer to the Heaven Breaching Fortress, where Mo Yin gave out the same order again. Now, they were two stars’ distance away and just as this site was established, Mo Yin gave the same order once more.
When this new site was established, it had already been about two months, just as Mo Yin was about to give out the order again, he was stopped by the others, “If we move any closer than where we are now, we will have no time to get ourselves prepared for a war if King Yi attacks suddenly. We think that it’s better to keep some distance away from King Yi.”
Mo Yin smiled, “The reason I want to move closer is to keep him occupied, forcing close to him with us at the back and the Heaven Court at the front, trapping him in the middle. But… if you’re afraid, then so be it.”
Right now, they were only a star’s distance away and this distance did not make Lou Zhengshi and the others feel safe. The nervous generals kept an eye on the movements of the enemy, day and night without fail. As for Mo Yin, he did not seem worried at all, instead, he had the ladies to entertain him, from day to night everyday.
Without knowing, half a year passed and just like the other days, Mo Yin got himself drunk again and slept soundly with a few ladies in his arms while the commanders shook their head.
Isn’t Mister Mo being way too careless right now? The war is about to happen but he is still fooling around.
When the ladies woke up from their sleep, Mo Yin was nowhere to be found, there was also one of them that lost a set of her clothes and she couldn’t help to hide herself in embarrassment.
This was a puny matter however, compared to Mo Yin’s disappearance.
Lou Zhengshi and the others started looking for him but he was nowhere to be found, it was only until then they started panicking, flipping the entire site upside down but to no avail.
That was when the officer guarding the gate reported, “My lord, there is this court lady that says she wants to visit her family in Heaven Court, she’s been gone for about a day.”
Upon receiving this news, they immediately knew, This lady must be Mister Yi, he stole the lady’s cloth and ran away disguising as a court lady!
Lou Zhnegshi calmed himself down and said, “Calm down, his wife and children are all in Heaven Court, there is no way he would abandon them! We must hurry, secure his family before he reaches them!”
Not long later, news came from Heaven Court, reporting that the palace where Mo Yin’s family resided was already gone and that there was a general escorted them out to stay in the Heavenly Monarch’s palace with the reason that the Heaven Court wasn’t safe anymore.
Their limbs turned cold, their eyes looked dead at the Heaven Breaching Fortress dangerously close to them, their mind went blank and they did not know what to do anymore. There had been a frequent change among the army divisions, they were assigned to different places to repel the enemies that arrived with the name of “justice”. Because of that, they’d let down their guard and gave Mo Yin the chance!
“We’re too close to King Yi’s army now, backing off right now will only bring us a disastrous defeat, it’s impossible to chase after this traitor now…” Lou Zhengshi murmured.
Any further, they would be running right into the enemy’s ranks, any step backward and Zhong Yue’s army would attack and crush them with an unstoppable momentum for none of them was as good as Mo Yin at improvising on the spot.
For the sake of his own life, Mo Yin chose to sacrifice all of them!
“Daddy, are we going to the Imperial Star?”
A tiny boat sailed out silently from the Heaven Court and headed straight to the Imperial Star and inside the cabin hid Mo Yin’s family. They all looked worriedly at Mo Yin and his youngest son asked, “Is there any place for us in the Imperial Star?”
The boy looked right into his father’s eyes brightly, “Are they not going to eat us? Mummy said that the celestial races like to eat humans most and daddy you said that you decided to come out because you saw them eating humans! Daddy is a hero!”
Mo Yin shook his head and smiled, “Hero or coward, how can one tell? This time, I am a coward.”
His old mother stood up in quiver, “Yin’er, I’m blind but not deaf, I can sense a god standing right on our path!”
Mo Yin’s heart skipped a beat, without a thought, he got out from the cabin and saw an ancient ship with countless pairs of wings floating right above them, with a person drinking fine wine alone on the deck.
“This god is absurdly strong!”
His blind mother’s heart started pumping quickly and she grabbed her son’s hands, “Is he sent to kill us? Go! I am already old and there is nothing more left for me to see! Run! I will stop him!”
