Chapter 809: 718 Run after provoking trouble

Realm of the Spiritual Pivot, Five Lights Clan.

A vast estate, where Wu Yuzhu was reporting to Mo Sen.

"What? The Yaksha Clan suddenly launched an attack, targeting the domains under the control of our Five Lights Clan?"

Mo Sen said with furrowed brows, a look of confusion on his face.

"They claim our clan members have ambushed and killed their own, and we have already lost more than ten Divinity Transformation Cultivators."

Wu Yuzhu reported truthfully.

This was only the loss of the Five Lights Clan, not including the casualties of their vassal species.

"Ambush and kill their clan members? Even if our people had killed one or two Divinity Transformation Cultivators, would that be reason enough for them to spark a war of such scale across over sixty domains?"

Mo Sen voiced his bewilderment.

The Yaksha Clan, leading their vassal species against the Five Lights Clan, and the Five Lights Clan directing theirs in resistance—the flames of war spread to more than sixty domains.

"Yes! Mo Xin and the others are also very puzzled. They believe they are being framed. No matter how they try to explain, the Yaksha Clan elites simply won’t listen. Some of the Yaksha Clan Divinity Transformation Cultivators possess Middle Grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasures. Our clan members are no match and have suffered heavy casualties."

Wu Yuzhu continued, as if remembering something, she added, "Patriarch, I suspect that the Yaksha Clan high ranks know about the mission Mo Xin and the others undertook in The Lower Realm. The Yaksha Clan cultivators are acting under the guise of being victims to target us, when in fact, they’re after Fairy Yulian’s avatar."

"Even if they knew of Mo Xin and the others’ mission, they should be looking for Fairy Yulian’s avatar in secret. Why attack the domains we control?"

Mo Sen asked, still puzzled.

"There are two possibilities. First, they may not know any more leads and want to exterminate Mo Xin and the others to gain clues about Fairy Yulian’s avatar. The second possibility, they want to keep us busy while they search for Fairy Yulian’s avatar in the shadows. Why else would the Yaksha Clan mobilize several vassal species against us? It defies logic."

Wu Yuzhu analyzed.

The Yaksha Clan had deployed a great number of Divinity Transformation Cultivators against those of the Five Lights Clan. There must be a motive, and it certainly wasn’t for revenge—Five Lights Sect Cultivators had not attacked any from the Yaksha Clan.

"Send Divinity Transformation Cultivators to The Lower Realm immediately, with Middle Grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasures. We must teach the Yaksha Clan cultivators a lesson, they think we’re an easy target, and that we can be bullied. Also, take the Soul Chasing Disk with you, we must find Fairy Yulian’s avatar."

Mo Sen ordered.

"Yes, Patriarch."

Wu Yuzhu agreed, taking her leave to carry out the commands.

······

The Zihao Mountain Range was located in the southwest of the Zihao Realm. It used to be a stronghold of the Five Lights Clan but was now under the control of the Yaksha Clan.

Deep within the mountains, a large number of Yaksha Clan cultivators could be seen. In a resplendent golden palace, Tao Feng sat in the main seat with more than ten Divinity Transformation Cultivators sitting to both sides, their expressions somber.

"Fairy Zhu has been killed, the fifth-grade Soul-devouring Clam is indeed troublesome."

Tao Feng said with a frown.

Zhu Yue had rushed to the frontlines, personally leading the fight against the Divinity Transformation Cultivators of the Five Lights Clan. Zhu Yue was unstoppable, slaughtering four Divinity Transformation Cultivators. However, after being severely wounded by Mo Hai’s Soul-devouring Clam, which damaged her Divine Soul, she ended up killed by Mo Hai witnessed by all the cultivators present.

"Yes! Fairy Zhu’s Nascent Soul self-destructed, and Mo Hai was seriously injured."

A curvy woman in a golden dress sighed.

Zhu Yue was their leader, and her death had dealt a severe blow to their morale.

"What? Zhu Yue has been killed?"

An icy male voice rang out.

The voice had barely faded when a Golden Flying Boat flew in, carrying twenty-two Soul Transformation Cultivators. Leading the group was a burly man in a green shirt with icy cold eyes.

"Tao Feng, people from the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot have dispatched another twenty Soul Transformation Cultivators to The Lower Realm to support us. This is Zhu Qing,"

a rosy-cheeked elder in a green robe introduced.

"Describe the circumstances surrounding Zhu Yue’s demise,"

Zhu Qing ordered.

"Here’s what happened. The Five Lights Sect amassed a large number of elites to confront us, and we couldn’t break through their defenses for a long time. Fairy Zhu rushed to the front lines herself, leading us into an attack against the Five Lights Sect. She fought valiantly, killing five Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators, but she was gravely injured by Mo Hai’s Soul-devouring Clam, her Divine Soul shattered, and she perished. Fairy Zhu’s Nascent Soul knew it could not escape and chose to self-destruct, which also heavily injured Mo Hai."

Tao Feng’s face showed admiration as he finished speaking.

He hadn’t had much affection for Zhu Yue, but she had charged ahead of her troops and died on the front line, choosing to take the enemy down with her in death.

Zhu Qing’s brows were tightly furrowed. They had come from The Realm of the Spiritual Pivot to back up Zhu Yue, intending to clarify the details of the ambush, but Zhu Yue had perished, leaving nothing to investigate.

A coincidence? Or was there something more mysterious at play?

"Tell me about the battle situation,"

Zhu Qing commanded.

Tao Feng complied with a sound, delivering a detailed report.

In a manor enveloped in yellow fog, Shen Long and Chu Buyu sat in a Green Stone Pavilion, with five round beads flickering with yellow light floating above their heads, shielding them and the Spirit-Seeking Mouse.

The five yellow round beads were a complete set of lower-grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasures, the Concealment Spirit Pearls, with an excellent hiding effect.

A tall man in golden clothing stood not far away, clearly a Yaksha Clan Cultivator, but only at the Nascent Soul Stage, and controlled by Shen Long using a treasure.

Chu Buyu had manipulated Zhu Yue to rush to the front lines, fighting a fierce battle with Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators from the Five Lights Clan, cleverly ambushed by Mo Hai’s Soul-devouring Clam, resulting in the destruction of Zhu Yue’s physical body. Chu Buyu then directly triggered the Soul Capturing Bead to self-destruct, along with Zhu Yue’s Nascent Soul.

With no one left to testify, although there were many suspicious points, both clans were already blinded by rage.

Tao Feng, boasting a middle-grade Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, had killed five Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators from the Five Lights Clan, and this was a blood debt.

"Master, twenty-two people have arrived, Tao Feng is reporting to one of them, they seem to be of high status, probably from the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot,"

the Spirit-Seeking Mouse said.

"The allure of the Ten Thousand Spirits Command, the seventh-rank Absorbing Thunder Pearl, and the seventh-rank Leading Thunder Pearl is not small, so it’s normal for the Yaksha Clan to send more Divinity Transformation Cultivators,"

Chu Buyu said with a smile.

All this was fabricated information; without it, they couldn’t have gained the attention of the Yaksha Clan.

"The things we’ve done aren’t flawless, and there are still quite a few suspicious points, but fortunately, both clans are not readily inclined to cease hostilities. Let’s leave this place first and bring back what we’ve collected to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot to see if we can get any other clues. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for us to find Fairy Jade Lotus’s incarnation,"

Shen Long said.

They had assassinated two Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators from the Five Lights Clan and obtained no clues. Continuing to stay in The Lower Realm would risk exposure.

They had secured Master Blood Shedding’s stash in The Lower Realm and planned to bring it back to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot for their true forms. Without clues in the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot, searching for Fairy Jade Lotus’s incarnation in The Lower Realm would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.

The man in gold summoned a Golden Flying Boat over three meters long, Shen Long stored the Spirit-Seeking Mouse, and walked onto the boat with Chu Buyu.

Chu Buyu put away the Concealment Spirit Pearls, took out a small yellow flag, and gave it a gentle wave. A large swath of yellow fog surged from the flag, obscuring her and Shen Long’s figures.

Before long, the yellow fog dissipated, and Shen Long and Chu Buyu had vanished.

The man in golden clothing stepped onto the Golden Flying Boat, performed a spell, and the boat soared into the high skies. The Yaksha Clan Cultivators didn’t interfere and allowed the man in gold to leave.
