Chapter 804: Treacherous or Loyal?

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Zhong Yue continued training the Xian Tian Royal Guard, he requested high tier techniques and arts from Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, stating that the reason was that the royal guards’ cultivation techniques were too poor as they were right now.

However, with King Zi Guang on the side, he stopped Imperial Emperor Xian Tian from giving Zhong Yue what he wanted. In the end, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian gifted Zhong Yue only with a few Creator level arts.

“My king, you must not let your disciples compete and exchanged cultivation ideas in the army anymore.”

King Zi Guang advised, “Yi Feng might be able to learn your arts and skills through your disciples. If he bears no ill intent, then there would be no problem but if he…”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s heart thumped right away; though every disciple received his teachings, none had received a complete heritage from him. Whatever he taught his disciples were only fragments of his arts. After that, he would let his disciples learn and create their own arts.

However, with the large number of disciples, if Zhong Yue manages to learn whatever they learned from Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, Zhong Yue would be able to compile them all and complete the puzzle.

In these few days, there were at least 20,000 Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s disciples that fought with the Fuxi in the Xian Tian Royal Guard and there were also quite a few Heavenly Deities that gave advice to the Fuxi gods.

At this rate, it was only a matter of time before the Zhong Yue learned all of Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s techniques and arts!

As such, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian immediately forbade his disciples from competing with the Xian Tian Royal Guard; when the order was passed down, the army became as quiet as before and even if the disciples visited, they merely engaged in small talks with Zhong Yue instead of competing.

This old fox Zi Guang is foiling my plan every time!

As much as he hated King Zi Guang, Zhong Yue couldn’t do anything about him and he said to the Yan Sovereign, “I am preparing to derive the Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s Dao techniques but as soon as I gain some traction, King Zi Guang comes in and ruins my plan.”

Just like King Zi Guang said, Zhong Yue’s purpose was not benign. Apart from training the 8,000 Fuxi, he was also trying to study Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s techniques and arts.

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian was a man of great knowledge, something that could be seen from his disciples. As time passed, with the absurdly strong calculations, Zhong Yue would definitely be able to learn everything he needed about Imperial Emperor Xian Tian!

And by that time, that was to become his greatest asset against Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.

Yan Sovereign then said, “Zi Guang has always been shrewd and he is extremely loyal to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian. It is not easy to fool him.”

“Zi Guang is not a problem, the real problem here is Imperial Emperor Xian Tian.”

Zhong Yue’s eyes flashed and he tested, “Yiqi, do you have any idea of dealing with Zi Guang?”

The Yan Sovereign kept quiet.

Zhong Yue knew that the two had a very close relationship; if Zi Guang was ordered to kill the Yan Sovereign, he would definitely refuse to do so, but the converse was true too. Hence, Zhong Yue decided to drop this subject as he also knew about how deep their relationship was.

“The 8,000 Fuxi needs experience or they will never achieve anything.”

Zhong Yue came up with another idea and reported it to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, “The humans are weak and there are no worthy treasures, no places to acquire experience in the human’s Heavens. Your Majesty, pardon your humble servant from asking this, do you have any sacred grounds to recommend that can temper them? One that a suitable level of danger for these inexperienced soldiers?”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian sought suggestions from King Zi Guang again, who said, “He is planning to use your resources to train his army. We can’t turn down this request and have him look for one himself.”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian shook and said, “Zi Guang, aren’t you being too cautious? The Xian Tian Royal Guard are my royal guards. If we don’t allow this and that, how is Yi Feng going to train the army into a powerful army? How will these Fuxi be able to aid me in my conquest?”

With that, King Zi Guang decided to make some concessions. He said, “My king, there are many Heavens in your hands and they are divided into three categories, the first, second and third tier. The first tier is opened to your disciples and inner circle, while the second and third are opened to those who contributed greatly. Just open the third tier Heavens to him.”

“Zi Guang, you are still acting very stingy. I’m afraid that this will disappoint Yi Feng down tremendously.”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian then gave out an order that allowed the second tier Heavens within Xian Tian Palace to be opened to the Xian Tian Royal Guard.

Within the second tier Heavens contained precious treasures and materials, the Creators’ knowledge, and Hell Reincarnation also existed in them. But they had nothing related to the ways of achieving the Bloodline Wheel.

In terms of quality, the second tier Heavens was inferior to the Ancient Land of God Graves and Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror.

This Zi Guang is getting annoying!

Zhong Yue sent the Fuxi under his lead into the second tier Heavens but had Chi Song, Bing Rong, and the other captains remain with him. He then reported back to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, “The nine Fuxi captains had achieved the Bloodline Wheel and the second tier Heavens is useless for them. Could your majesty award them with a different fortune.”

This time, Imperial Emperor Xian Tian did not seek advice from King Zi Guang and he allowed them all to enter the first tier Heavens and trained with his disciples.

Upon knowing this, King Zi Guang went to see Imperial Emperor Xian Tian and he warned, “My king, the Fuxi are an outsider race. How can we gift them such good fortune?”

Imperial Emperor Xian Tian smiled and replied, “They are the captains with great talents so it’s natural for me to pour more resources into training them. If they receive nothing from me, they may not be so willing to pour their hearts into serving me in the future.”

King Zi Guang stomped his leg hardly and said again, “Treacherous Yi Feng is cunning in every way! I fear that they would not serve you loyally even after you gifting them with such benefits!”

“Worry not. I have Yi Feng fully controlled in my hands. If his enemy is still alive, he has no way to go except serving me. ” Imperial Emperor Xian Tian answered calmly, “Besides, after I sit the throne and take control over the whole world, there would no longer be any benefit for Yi Feng to betray me.”

King Zi Guang kept quiet after that and he headed towards the Human Sovereign Palace, where Zhong Yue and Yan Sovereign were discussing some matters. As they noticed King Zi Guang’s arrival, they both stood up and Yan Sovereign asked with a smile, “Zi Guang, your visit is rare!”

King Zi Guang greeted Yan Sovereign and before Yan Sovereign could say anything, he said furiously, “I’m here to see the treacherous subject!”

“Where is he?” asked a surprised Zhong Yue.

King Zi Guang stared at Zhong Yue right away and smirked, “Why pretend you don’t know anything when you know exactly who I’m referring to?”

Zhong Yue smiled and invited him to seat as he said, “Brother Zi Guang, I believe that it’s not offtensive of me to call you brother. Brother Zi Guang, as a smart and intelligent person, could you please explain to me how I am treacherous?”

King Zi Guang had his seat and he said, “After receiving permission to lift the Xian Tian Royal Guard’s human Fuxi bloodline, why didn’t you lift the seal in yours?”

And before Zhong Yue could say anything, King Zi Guang said again, “Imperial Emperor Xian Tian allowed Xian Tian Royal Guard to enter the first and second tier Heavens but you didn’t enter. You have 8,000 men under your lead but you demanded nothing! If you’re not a loyal servant, then you are a treacherous one!”

Yan Sovereign smiled and said, “Commander Yi Feng is a loyal one…”

King Zi Guang spat and he said right away, “Who doesn’t have their own little plans. It is the ones who demand nothing that are truly insidious. I serve Imperial Emperor Xian Tian loyally so that I can make myself proud by making use of my talents, so that I can honor my ancestors and so that I can have money, fame, and power for myself! But this man here, he wants nothing, not even the release of his bloodline!”

“Is that so?”

Zhong Yue replied calmly, “Is that why Brother Zi Guang suspects and refuses to believe in me? Brother Zi Guang, if I lift the curse in my bloodline, do you think I will walk away alive once his majesty sits the Heavenly Monarch’s throne?”

King Zi Guang’s heart thumped but that did not stop Zhong Yue from speaking, “Those who lift the seal will all be gone when His Majesty rises as the new Heavenly Monarch, not even those who aided and contributed greatly in His Majesty’s conquest will be exempt. Brother Zi Guang, who do you think is the one that will kill them all by then?”

“Of course it’s Imperial Emperor Xian Tian…” murmured King Zi Guang as his heart tightened.

“The Fuxis are a great threat to everyone. In history, those with great power that served under a lord will usually end up tragically whenever the lord becomes the king, not to mention a Fuxi. The only reason I did not lift the seal was that I do not wish to die. As for my zero demands…”

With a proud smile, Zhong Yue said arrogantly, “I am an innate god in my previous life. Do you think I will be interested in a mere first tier Heavens? Everything that I’ve hidden away for myself before I was reborn is greater than just a tiny first tier Heavens!”

King Zi Guang’s expression calmed down as Zhong Yue explained but he continued to press on. “You know that the Fuxi’s bloodline is dangerous but you insisted on obtaining such great power for you men. You tried your best to strengthen your army, what do you have to say about this?”

Zhong Yue was left speechless by this question for a second before he explained again, “It’s His Majesty who made this decision, not me. He assigned me this army to take on the toughest wars for him and if the army I lead is a bunch of Fuxi who know nothing, how are we supposed to take on such wars and become the Xian Tian Royal Guard? Even if I did not request anything, this much can only be considered the necessary capital for His Majesty to fulfill his own goals.”

This time, it was King Zi Guang who was rendered speechless as he too felt that this was the case. After all, the decision to lift the seal on Fuxi bloodline was unilaterally made by Imperial Emperor Xian Tian. This decision was made so that Imperial Emperor Xian Tian could gain the upper hand in the battle against Heavenly Monarch and this was completely unrelated to Zhong Yue.

After a moment, King Zi Guang began a new round of interrogations, “You keep addressing Imperial Emperor Xian Tian as if he is already a Heavenly Monarch. Only a treacherous servant, not a loyal and wise servant who thinks for his master, would do something like this!”

“And that is treacherous?” countered Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue asked unhappily, “Brother Zi Guang, talking behind my back in front of His Majesty, insulting me and humiliating my loyalty, is that what a good subordinate does?”

King Zi Guang’s expression faltered and Zhong Yue continued, “Being unable to understand His Majesty’s reasons, setting up another subject that contributed through a series of poisonous ways, it that treacherous?”

His expression changed once again but Zhong Yue still continued, “Stopping His Majesty from empowering his army, are these the acts of a wise and loyal advisor?”

King Zi Guang was at a loss for words.

Yan Sovereign, on the other hand, smiled and said upon seeing this, “That’s enough. You should both restrain your anger and frustration and talk to each other in a peaceful manner.

King Zi Guang sighed and as he got up, he excused himself and said, “From now on, Zi Guang will never question Mister Yi’s actions.”

Yan Sovereign sent King Zi Guang out and after they got out from Yan Sovereign Palace, Yan Sovereign asked, “Zi Guang, is Yi Feng a suspicious one still?”

King Zi Guang nodded without hesitation, “Though I am left speechless by his words, deep down, I know that he has ill-intent.”

Yan Sovereign was puzzled and King Zi Guang continued, “His evil is hidden deeply within his heart, but it cannot escape me! Loyal or not, I can tell with just one look! Tell me, is there any innate gods that would be this loyal all the way from the beginning? Serving under another innate god? Even if this innate god that reborn, he will still differentiate himself from the ordinary gods and in his heart, he will always be on top of the others. The more loyalty he shows, the more suspicious he is.”

Yan Sovereign felt a chill travel his spine but he had to admit that he feared and admired King Zi Guang’s intelligence at the same time. King Zi Guang said, “But I have contingency plans in place already. If Yi Feng betrays our king, his life is forfeit!”

With that, King Zi Guang bade farewell with Yan Sovereign and left.

Yan Sovereign then returned to his Palace and after telling Zhong Yue about what King Zi Guang said, Zhong Yue frowned and he thought, Contingency plans? My life forfeit… What is this……

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically as the cogs in his mind began to turn.
