Book 5: Chapter 145: Luring the Wolf Home

At the entrance of a city:

The Mosquito Daoist appeared sunk in depression.

This is uncanny! I quietly informed ten powerful animal spirits, and they all went to the Solar Divine Palace to report to the Supreme Genesis. Why is there no more word from them? Why? Did those ten animal spirits vanish? Screw this c.r.a.p! What bulls.h.i.+t is this?! The Mosquito Daoist was utterly depressed.

After a while, the Mosquito Daoists expression changed. Could Gu Hai be aware of it, and he dealt with those ten animal spirits?

On a mountaintop:

The Great Light Sovereign Deity looked at the ten fearful animal spirits before him.

Speak! Who is it? the Great Light Sovereign Deity demanded coldly.

We dont know, either. We just got a letter delivered to us, telling us to report this matter to the Solar Divine Palace, and that there would be a big reward. WeIGreat Light Sovereign Deity, we really dont know anything! the ten powerful animal spirits insisted anxiously.

The Great Light Sovereign Deity narrowed his eyes slightly. Humph! Gu Hais reach is really far. To think that he even has men in the Solar Divine Palace? Trying to report it? In your dreams!

Heaven City was not far away.

Surrounded by many angels, Gu Hais flying s.h.i.+p flew towards a large cloud sea.

I recall that you mentioned the Revival Pool earlier? Is that how Yehua revived? Gu Hai looked at Long Sanqian.

The Revival Pool is a special treasure belonging to the Supreme Genesis. According to my father, the Supreme Genesis formed it by gathering boundless power of faith. Only extremely powerful angels are qualified to store a wisp of their Soul Energy in it as an anchor. That way, even if they die outside or if their spiritual souls get shattered, the power of faith can bring the shattered soul fragments back to the Revival Pool. The power of faith will nourish them inside, restoring their spiritual souls and reconstructing a new body! Long Sanqian exclaimed.

Oh? Doesnt that mean that they have an extra life? Gu Hai raised his eyebrows.

Yes. Unfortunately, it is useful to only angels. Otherwise, all the various factions around the world would fight over it, Long Sanqian said with a bitter smile.

Why?

Im not sure. Long Sanqian shook his head.

While you are not, I am, Long Aotian immediately sneered.

Oh? Elder Brother, you know? Long Sanqian said in surprise.

[TL Note: In Chinese culture, one addresses elder cousins as elder brother or elder sister.]

Of course. Why can only angels revive? That is because angels are spirit-a.s.similated humans. A spirit-a.s.similated human had their mortal soul eaten by the primogenitor before having a drop of the primogenitors essence blood injected into them. The result is spirit a.s.similation. However, the mortal souls of the angels are not eaten by the Supreme Genesis. Instead, they are eaten by the Cross Annihilation, Long Aotian explained c.o.c.kily.

The Cross Annihilation? The tenth of the top sixteen ancient treasures? Gu Hais expression changed.

Thats right. The Cross Annihilation consumes the humans mortal soul, and the Supreme Genesis provides the essence blood. The result is angels. When angels die outside, the Cross Annihilation summons their souls with the power of faith, using their mortal souls as anchors, bringing back even shattered soul fragments and fixing them. Of course, there is only one chance for that. The consumed mortal soul is used in summoning the souls, and the mortal soul will shatter afterwards, with no chance of restoring it, Long Aotian said with certainty.

Oh? Then, why does it work for only certain angels? Long Sanqian asked, feeling bewildered.

Do you not need to use the power of faith to summon the souls? Thats why they claim to outsiders that it can revive only important angels because they stored a wisp of their Soul Energy as an anchor. That is all a lie. No, more specifically, it is to trick the angels. It is just that the insignificant angels are not worth wasting so much power of faith, Long Aotian explained.

The Revival Pool? It is related to the Cross Annihilation? Gu Hai felt slightly startled.

Mister Gu, your companions are truly well-learned. To think that they even know of my Heaven Citys secrets! Yanxuan suddenly turned his head and looked at them.

Well-learned? Thats too polite. First Young Master Yanxuan, this humble one has something I do not understand. Would you explain it to me? Gu Hai said with a smile.

Oh?

According to that Angel Jia Mi, Bing Ji is imprisoned, awaiting being given away in marriage? Gu Hai said, feeling curious.

Before Yanxuan could say anything, Yehua sneered, Gu Hai, I thought you had already forgotten about Bing Ji. Humph! Bing Ji failed to complete the Eastern Monarchs mission and even wrecked Fathers plan. The Eastern Monarch is furious and wants to marry Bing Ji out. As for the candidate, Father will decide. Father wants to sell her for a good price. Whats wrong? You cant bear for that to happen? Hahaha!

Yehua looked at Gu Hai ferociously.

So, that is the case? Gu Hai released his bated breath.

Mister Gu, I heard that Bing Ji fell in love with you and lost her chast.i.ty when she went to the Han Royal Dynasty. I believeMister Gu is interested in trying? Yanxuan said with a faint smile.

Trying? Sure. Later on. Gu Hai shook his head.

Later on? Yanxuan appeared somewhat confused.

The angels soon arrived above the cloud sea, and everyone saw the vast Heaven City.

Countless angels flew all over the place. When seen from a distance, it seemed like a peaceful holy realm.

Whoos.h.!.+

The angels flew into Heaven City. Gu Hais gaze s.h.i.+fted to the center of the city, where a pure-white light glowed.

That is the Revival Pool? Sima Changkong asked in curiosity.

Activate the ritual array! Yanxuan suddenly shouted.

Boom!

Suddenly, a large barrier formed around Heaven City amid loud noises, enveloping the entire city and blocking all pa.s.sage.

Oh? Gu Hai smiled faintly.

Gu Hai, to think that you still can smile! Hahaha! Even at your death, you still do not understand your situation! Hand over the Cla.s.sic of the Dao and Virtue. Otherwise, we will use force! Yehua suddenly shouted furiously.

The Cla.s.sic of the Dao and Virtue? Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.

Clearly, the angels did not know that Gu Hai had already torn the Cla.s.sic of the Dao and Virtue.

Thats right. Gu Hai, this young master was previously worried you would go all out in a life-and-death struggle, tearing the Cla.s.sic of the Dao and Virtue to flee. Thats why I lured you here. Unexpectedly, you were so cooperative. I do feel quite curious about this. Did you really think that I was truly inviting you over as a guest? Yanxuan asked with slightly narrowed eyes.

First Young Master Yanxuan, initially, I felt somewhat embarra.s.sed about planning to do this. Now, I have nothing to worry about, Gu Hai replied with a smile.

Worry about what? Yehuas face sank.

Yanxuans face sank as he noticed that something was not quite right. However, he could not figure out what it was. His father had told him that Gu Hai was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and the rest were his subordinates. Is Gu Hai going to tear the Cla.s.sic of the Dao and Virtue?

Angel Jia Mi said that Bing Ji is imprisoned. Initially, I was thinking about how to save her. Given the situation now, theres no need to save her anymore. I dont even need to search for her, Gu Hai said with a faint, cold smile.

What did you say? Yanxuans face sank further.

Gu Hai, what madness are you raving about? Yehua glared, not understanding.

Ao Shun, capture Yanxuan. I want him alive! Gu Hai commanded.

Ah? Long Sanqian and Long Aotian felt startled.

What is Gu Hai doing? Entering their territory and attacking them?

Yes! Ao Shun answered.

Ao Shun? Yanxuans expression suddenly changed. Things were not going as planned.

Ao Shuns figure flashed and instantly arrived before Yanxuan.

Boom!

The two attacked simultaneously, clas.h.i.+ng. s.p.a.ce trembled, and a violent windstorm surged out.

Argh! Argh! Argh!

The immense force knocked Yehua back.

What? Gu Hai, did you put on a weak facade? Yehua shouted as the windstorm sent him flying.

The Supreme Genesis is not at home; what do I have to worry about? Since you delivered yourselves to me, you cant blame anyone else, Gu Hai retorted coldly.

Long Aotian, attack with everything you have. Capture Yehua! Gu Hai commanded Long Aotian.

Long Aotian? Yehuas face sank.

However, Long Aotian did not move.

Huh? Gu Hais face sank as he looked at Long Aotian.

My grudge with the Supreme Genesis is only over Yehua. Now that Yehua is alive, what do I have to worry about? Hahaha! Gu Hai, you are seeking your own death. Dont drag me in. I will only observe! Long Aotian said with a faint smile.

Elder Brother! Long Sanqian said with an anxious expression.

Shut up, Sanqian. This has nothing to do with you! Long Aotian said in disdain.

On the other side, Ao Shun and Yanxuan fought. On this side, many angels protected Yehua.

Yehua initially felt somewhat worried about Long Aotian. However, there was now dissent among Gu Hais ranks.

Yehua suddenly showed a ferocious expression. Hahaha! Gu Hai, to think that you have this day! Capture Gu Hai! Hurry! I want the Cla.s.sic of the Dao and Virtue!

Yes!

Many angels immediately charged at Gu Hai.

Fire! Mu Chenfeng shouted.

Boom!

Suddenly, ten-odd angels leading the charge exploded.

The Heaven Blasting Cannon again? Yehuas expression changed.

Humph! There is only one Heaven Blasting Cannon! Attack! Quickly capture Gu Hai and the rest! Yehua shouted while glaring.

Yes!

Suddenly, several six-winged angels flapped their wings and rushed towards Gu Hais flying s.h.i.+p.

Bring out all the cannons! Mu Chenfeng shouted.

Rumble!

A total of eighteen Heaven Blasting Cannons appeared and aimed at the six-winged angels.

Theyre fake! They must be fake! How can there be so many Heaven Blasting Cannons? Thats impossible! Capture them! Yehua roared while glaring.

Yes!

The six-winged angels continued charging over.

Fire!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

As a string of explosions rang out, nine six-winged angels blew up. The blasts sent the remaining six-winged angels tumbling.

What? They are all real? Yehuas expression changed.

Fire again! Mu Chenfeng shouted.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The angels surrounding the flying s.h.i.+p exploded into pieces. Then, the Heaven Blasting Cannons aimed and fired at the remaining six-winged angels.

How could it be like this?! How could it be like this?! Yehuas expression changed wildly.

At the side, Long Aotian showed an unsightly expression. He initially wanted to see how the angels dealt with Gu Hai. Unexpectedly, Gu Hais Heaven Blasting Cannons were so powerful.

High in the sky, the expression of Yanxuan, who was fighting with Ao Shun, changed. I lured the wolf into our home? This is bad!

First Elder Lu Fa! Heaven City is in danger! Quickly come out! Yanxuan shouted.

Rumble!

Ten-odd buildings in Heaven City suddenly shook, spewing large amounts of black energy.

Oh no! Gu Hais face sank.

Mu Chenfeng, protect us! Gu Hai shouted.

Yes! Mu Chenfeng shouted.

Boom!

Gu Hai stomped and launched himself at Yehua.

Stop him! Stop him! Yehuas expression changed as he tried to flee into the distance.

Many angels rushed towards Gu Hai.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Heaven Blasting Cannons immediately exploded all the angels charging towards Gu Hai. He moved extremely quickly, instantly arriving near Yehua.
