SWNOVELXO Chapter 666 Taoist Ancestor Mr. Huan
"Shu Ziche, are you crazy?" There was no need for Yuanqing to step forward and speak; a sect master from another sect had already come forward.
Yuanqing coldly snorted and was about to stand up.
What surprised everyone was that the Divine King Kaiyi of the God tribe did not break out in anger.
Not only did he not break out, but the Divine King Kaiyi also coughed and then said somewhat awkwardly, "May I ask if Mr. Huan is present?"
Mr. Huan?
Everyone was stunned. Who is Mr. Huan?
The cautious appearance of Divine King Kaiyi indicated that this Mr. Huan seemed to have significant influence.
But none of them knew who Mr. Huan was.
In an instant, these sect masters in the Council Hall understood that Divine King Kaiyi was being so cautious, plus the God tribe had come to negotiate peace.
The first thing in the negotiation was not to discuss territory division but to inquire about Mr. Huan.
Is it not obvious that there's a powerhouse in the Human Tribe named Mr. Huan who had warned the God tribe?
Otherwise, why would the God tribe proactively seek peace?
Who else but a Combined God Strong person could make the God tribe so cautious and take the initiative?
Yuanqing clasped his fists toward the void, speaking gravely, "Huan Ancestor has been in seclusion, and he hasn't said when he'll emerge.
Why do you inquire about our Human Tribe's Unification God Ancestor?"
Upon hearing the words "Unification God Ancestor," the mind of Divine King Kaiyi buzzed.
All doubts were now cleared up.
The Human Tribe actually produced an Unification God Ancestor.
What's the point of fighting now?
Fortunately, this Unification God Ancestor doesn't like causing trouble, or else where would the God tribe find a space for survival?
The warning words of Mr. Huan to the God tribe still echoed in his ears.
Mr. Huan had said that if they angered him, he would directly obliterate the God tribe, leaving not even a hair behind.
Divine King Kaiyi said again, a bit awkwardly, "Our God tribe and the Human tribe have always been amicable neighbors. After this negotiation, let's return to our original friendly state.
As for Dao Ruins, since we are neighbors, how could we occupy the trial territory of the Human Tribe?"
This was negotiated by the God tribe.
First, inquire about Mr. Huan; if no benefits can be gained, then take the second path.
Because entering Dao Ruins is a must; since the God tribe can't own Dao Ruins, then they'll secretly enter Dao Ruins.
The God tribe cannot allow the Tree Ancestor to exist alone within Dao Ruins.
The words of Divine King Kaiyi left many more bewildered. What is going on?
Wasn't the God tribe's invasion of the Human Tribe about Dao Ruins?
Why now, when Dao Ruins is given to the God tribe, do they not want it?
If the God tribe doesn't want Dao Ruins, they naturally won't rush to send it out.
This peace talk ended in an atmosphere of joy for both hosts and guests.
After Divine King Kaiyi left, many of the Human Tribe sect masters still couldn't believe it. Was this a dream?
"Alliance Hierarch, does our Human Tribe truly have a Unification God Ancestor?" Finally, someone couldn't help but ask.
Yuanqing spoke gravely, "Yes, I was fortunate enough to meet Mr. Huan once. I didn't expect Mr. Huan to come out this time to resolve this for the Human Tribe. Mr. Huan has always been focused on the Great Dao, not concerning himself with other matters.
Now, with our Human Tribe's Unification God Ancestor, Mr. Huan, coming out to support us, we no longer have to endure endless worry."
After speaking, Yuanqing also bowed respectfully to the void, "Thank you, Ancestor, for your protection."
He could not help but do so.
This excuse was given by the Divine Race; if he didn't make use of it, he wouldn't be fit to sit in the position of the Alliance Hierarch of the Heavenly Judgment Divine Alliance.
Seeing Yuanqing saluting the void.
Everyone in the Council Hall stood up, saluting the air and loudly shouting, "Thank you, Ancestor, for your protection."
Soon, the message from the war platform came through.
The God tribe voluntarily retreated and restored the big array between the God tribe and the Human Tribe.
With the God tribe voluntarily retreating, the Human Tribe naturally hurried to restore the array.
In just a few years, the number of cultivators who died between the Human and God tribes was over a hundred million.
After a few years of war, the conflict between the two tribes ended, returning to the previous state, as if nothing had ever happened.
The battle between the God tribe and the Human Tribe ended.
The first thing the Great Sects in the Upper God Land needed to do was not to discuss what to do if the God tribe reversed their stance, but to investigate the Dao Ruins Street Dao Ruins Guild Trading Building robbery.
The Dao Ruins Guild was previously the number one guild in the Divine World.
This guild had nine Divine Kings.
However, in this war, four fell on the war platform battlefield.
Two fell in Dao Ruins Street.
Now the Dao Ruins Guild only has three Divine Kings, with one seriously injured.
But the Dao Ruins Guild's influence in the Divine World is not limited to just nine Divine Kings; many sects have their people there.
An elder of the Heavenly Judgment Divine Alliance is also a Divine King of the Dao Ruins Guild.
Now, without the need to deal with the God tribe, the Dao Ruins Guild's demand to thoroughly investigate the Trading Building robbery has been promptly put on the agenda by the Heavenly Judgment Divine Alliance.
...
Ding Huan didn't know they had been investigated.
If he knew, he would certainly ask the God tribe to continue attacking the Human tribe.
You Gods can destroy the Upper God Land, but you must not interfere with my secluded cultivation.
At this moment, he had already stepped into the tenth level of Divine Monarch.
Meanwhile, Yi Jie also faced a third-level Divine Beast Heavenly Tribulation.
Fortunately, Ding Huan had set up a seventh-level Concealing Divine Array, shielding Yi Jie's Divine Beast Heavenly Tribulation, so that Li Yin Divine Valley was unaware.
Li Yin Divine Valley's Council Hall.
Even though Sect Master Xian Wushang was severely injured, he convened a sect meeting as soon as he returned.
He felt that this matter wasn't over yet. After all, the reliability of the supposed Unification God Ancestor 'Mr. Huan' was questionable.
As the master of a sect, even if powerless to prevent the God tribe from occupying the Human tribe, he had to consider his sect's interests.
Looking at the Council Hall of the sect, with only two Divine Kings left including himself, Xian Wushang's eyes showed some sadness.
This battle with the God tribe also claimed the lives of two Divine Kings from Li Yin Divine Valley.
He was fortunate; otherwise, he, as the Sect Master, would not have left the battle stage alive.
"Elder Yu, while I was away from the sect, did the God tribe not attack Li Yin Divine Valley's Protecting Array through the Great Star Desolation veins?"
Although Xian Wushang was on the battlefield at the battle stage, his greatest worry was the God tribe attacking Li Yin Divine Valley's Protecting Array and then attacking the Human tribe from behind.
He simply couldn't leave.
No Divine King could leave.
As long as one was a Divine King, they had to stay at the battle stage to confront the God tribe.
This is also why Ding Huan and Mo Changcan could cultivate openly without any Divine Kings pursuing them.
Just as Elder Yu Ning was about to speak, they heard a hoarse voice outside, "Brother Wushang, you're not dead yet, are you?"
Xian Wushang was startled, then suddenly stood up, laughing heartily, "Brother Ziche, instead of returning to your sect to heal, how did you come to my Li Yin Divine Valley?"
The visitor was Shu Ziche, also a steadfast advocate of war.
Unfortunately, there were too many people in the Human tribe who were concerned with their own interests, so they could neither fight with all their might nor had the courage to flee.
This situation resulted in the Human tribe suffering more losses than the God tribe each time.
However, Shu Ziche and I had little influence; apart from fighting valiantly when it was our turn, it was difficult to sway the situation.
Fortunately, Shu Ziche and I, along with a few other sect masters advocating for war, could barely establish a foothold at the battle stage outpost.
"Wushang, I have some important things to discuss with you. How about postponing your council meeting for a bit?" Shu Ziche, being on close terms with Xian Wushang, spoke without much restraint.
Xian Wushang nodded, "Let's go, to my Li Yin Peak."
"Sect Master, the sect's Protecting Array is safe and sound, you don't need to worry. I also often go to inspect it, and there have been very few attacks in the past one or two years." Elder Yu promptly conveyed what he knew.
Xian Wushang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
His greatest concern was the Divine Clan cultivators from the Great Star Desolation veins.
"Wushang, have you noticed anything unusual about this matter?"
After following Xian Wushang to a private Guest Hall, Shu Ziche, without any pleasantries, immediately voiced his doubts.
His purpose for coming here today was also to discuss this matter with Xian Wushang.
Xian Wushang sighed, "It's not just you and me, I estimate over ninety percent of the people feel something is off about this matter. The Gods can occupy the Upper God Land, so why make peace? Why abandon Dao Ruins?"
"That's the issue. If it's a conspiracy, it doesn't make sense. What kind of conspiracy involves giving up something so easily acquired? Isn't a conspiracy meant for Dao Ruins? Why bother?"
Shu Ziche had always been unable to understand this matter; he had little common ground with Yuanqing and the other Divine Kings.
So after the peace talks concluded, instead of returning to his sect, he came to Li Yin Divine Valley to find Xian Wushang.
"Ziche, do you think that the Unification God Ancestor Mr. Huan, as mentioned by Yuanqing, truly exists?"
Shu Ziche was silent for a while before sighing, "Previously, I thought it was absolutely impossible for him to exist, because the Divine World is a shattered boundary after the calamity. It's a known fact for countless ages that reaching the God Unification Realm in the Divine World is impossible. However, the God tribe's retreat without any apparent cause is unnatural. The only explanation is that our Human tribe really did produce an Unification God Ancestor. The reason I came here today is that I received a piece of information..."
"What information?"
Shu Ziche said with a serious tone, "I received information that a powerful being from the Human tribe really set up a Slaughter God Array in the Great Star Desolation veins. This Slaughter God Array can silently kill Divine Clan cultivators through Dao Rhythm Law, while Human Clan cultivators can escape this Slaughter Law. The reason the God tribe opted for peace talks is that this powerful being warned the God tribe that if they dared to act against the Human tribe again, he would not hesitate to annihilate them."
Xian Wushang stared blankly at Shu Ziche for a long while before speaking, "This... isn't this rumor too exaggerated?"
Shu Ziche shook his head, "This is not a rumor; it's information given by an insider I arranged within the God tribe. He is one of the survivors and has hidden within the Great Star Desolation, not daring to show his face. Moreover, the information he provided isn't just confined to this; there's an even more terrifying piece of news."
"What is it?"
"It's related to the God Unification affair. I previously believed Unification was impossible, but do you know why the God tribe suddenly wanted to seize Dao Ruins? It's because the Tree Ancestor of the God tribe might have been trapped within Dao Ruins, and they wish to rescue their Tree Ancestor, whose power is also likely at the God Unification Realm."
(Goodnight, fellow cultivators! For the past few days, my old illness has flared up, and I've been coughing so badly that I can't write. I can only stop here for today. Tomorrow may have no updates for a day; sigh, after the release, I've always done three updates a day to keep going. I didn't expect to have to stop due to health reasons. Sorry about that.)
