Chapter 1453: The Cause of the Problem

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

 The Tianluo Continent, at the Mu Estate Headquarters in the North Territory.

At the back of the headquarters, a huge spiritual array was being set up on a high platform. The spiritual light was dim, as the spiritual array had not yet been fully set up.

However, upon this day, myriad rays of light suddenly burst out from the spiritual array, accompanied by a strong spatial fluctuation. The center of the spiritual array gradually tore open, revealing a space passageway.

At that moment, a person walked out of it. “The Transfer Spiritual Array seems to be a success.” The person smiled as he looked at the spiritual light that was exuding from the spiritual array. This was a sign that the spiritual array had been activated.

He was none other than Mu Chen, who had rushed back from the Northern Spiritual Realm to the North Territory. He had spent five days in the space passageway before he had reached the North Territory. However, Mu Chen was pleased with the speed of this travel, as without the help of the Transfer Spiritual Array, he would have needed at least two months to reach the Tianluo Continent!

Swoosh!

The moment that Mu Chen appeared, several shadows shot towards him. When they got near him, Mu Chen saw that they were guards, who were dressed in armor.

“Who are you? How dare you barge into the Mu Estate Headquarters?” The guards all shouted in unison as they looked sharply at Mu Chen.

“You have reacted swiftly.” When Mu Chen saw them, he smiled.

He was pleased with the performance of these guards. After he stepped out of the Transfer Spiritual Array, the guards were then able to see his face clearly.

“It is the Estate Master! Greetings, Estate Master!” When the guards saw that it was Mu Chen, they were shocked. They no longer looked imposing, but quickly knelt down on one knee before Mu Chen.

“You may rise.” Mu Chen smiled and waved his sleeve before helping them up.

Swoosh!

At this moment, two more spiritual lights came down from the heavens. They were imposing, and when they revealed themselves, Mu Chen saw that they were Mandela and Ancestor Xuan Tian.

“You have finally come back.” When Mandela saw Mu Chen, she heaved a sigh of relief and sounded as though a huge weight had been lifted off of her shoulders.

Mu Chen smiled at her, then turned to Ancestor Xuan Tian. He cupped his fist and said, “Thank you, Elder Xuan Tian, for protecting my Mu Estate during my absence.”

When Ancestor Xuan Tian heard his words of gratitude, he quickly smiled and said warmly, “Estate Master, please do not say that. I am the Elder of the Mu Estate, so it is my duty to protect it.”

When Mu Chen heard what Ancestor Xuan Tian had said, he smiled, although he was a bit taken aback. Previously, Ancestor Xuan Tian had been forced by Mu Chen to be the Elder of the Mu Estate and was unhappy about it. However, his attitude had clearly changed completely!

When Ancestor Xuan Tian saw Mu Chen’s baffled look, he smiled sheepishly and said, “The entire Great Thousand World has heard about how Estate Master has suppressed the Budur Ancient Clan recently.”

When Ancestor Xuan Tian had heard this piece of news, he had been shocked. Although he knew that Mu Chen was powerful, it had never crossed his mind that Mu Chen would create havoc in the Budur Ancient Clan and suppress the elders of the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage based on his strength alone.

He was even more surprised to learn that Mu Chen’s mother had become the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan. With such a strong background, not many forces in the current Great Thousand World would have the audacity to look down on Mu Chen and his Mu Estate. From what Ancestor Xuan Tian could see, the Mu Estate had a bright future ahead of it.

As Mu Chen was enlightened, he knew the thoughts that were running through Ancestor Xuan Tian’s mind. He was pleased by this. After all, if Ancestor Xuan Tian decided to remain as the Elder of his Mu Estate, it would definitely benefit all.

Thus, he softened his look toward Ancestor Xuan Tian. He then asked Mandela, “Is everything well with the Mu Estate?”

Now that the Mu Estate had ruled over the North Territory and continued to stretch its influence into the Tianluo Continent, the supreme forces behind the veteran forces would surely be wary of it. As such, things might easily get out of hand.

“Initially, they took some actions against us, but ever since they heard how you created havoc in the Budur Ancient Clan, they became quiet. The supreme powers behind them also show signs of retreating…” Mandela reported.

She had expected for their Mu Estate to face intense competition from the various forces, but after the forces had heard what Mu Chen had done with the Budur Ancient Clan, no one dared to do anything to the Mu Estate. When Mu Chen heard this report, he sighed. He knew that the supreme powers were not wary of him, but of his mother, as she was currently the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan.

Apparently, Mu Chen did not know that a Divine Ancestral Master could be so powerful. However, this was a good sign.

If the supreme powers had the intentions of retreating, then one day, the North Territory would become the overlord of the Tianluo Continent. Then, his Mu Estate would become a supreme power in the Great Thousand World with the help of the North Territory.

Of course, Mu Chen had to advance to the Divine level before any of that could happen. If he did not do so, the Mu Estate would not be deemed as a supreme power.

“What has happened to Nine Nether?” Mu Chen asked after he pushed away those thoughts. His eyes looked cold.

“We shall let Heavenly Sparrow Elder share those details with you. I have asked him to come here,” Mandela said.

The moment Mandela finished what she had to say, a streamer dashed toward them from afar, then stopped right in front of them. Mu Chen saw that it was Heavenly Sparrow Elder, who Mu Chen had met when he had come to the Tianluo Continent to fetch Nine Nether in the past.

“Greetings Estate Master.” When Heavenly Sparrow Elder saw the youth who was standing before Mandela, he was excited.

He then sighed. When he had visited this place previously, it was still known as the Daluo Territory and was only a small force in the North Territory.

Heavenly Sparrow Elder had looked down on the Daluo Territory back then. After all, the Nine Netherbird Clan was a Divine Clan, and its base and strength were way beyond the Daluo Territory’s.

He had never thought that the Daluo Territory would become the Mu Estate after a few years, much less the lord over the entire North Territory! Now, even the other top forces in the Tianluo Continent dared not vie with the Mu Estate. Moreover, Mu Chen, who used to be a nobody, but now that he had stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level, even the top powers in the Budur Ancient Clan could not deal with him.

When Heavenly Sparrow Elder had met Mu Chen previously, he had looked upon him as a junior. Now, upon meeting him again, he had to address him as “Estate Master.”

“Greetings, Heavenly Sparrow Elder.” Mu Chen cupped his fist in response to Heavenly Sparrow Elder. He looked gentle and did not show any signs of arrogance because of his status.

Heavenly Sparrow Elder heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Mu Chen was as humble as before. He knew that those geniuses who possessed similar talents as Mu Chen were often arrogant.

Back then, their clan had not been kind to Mu Chen when they wanted him to break the bloodline bond with Nine Nether. However, Mu Chen did not seem to have taken the matter to heart.

“Nine Nether indeed has foresight. She is better at judging people than us,” Heavenly Sparrow Elder said as he smiled wryly. If they had known that Mu Chen would have such great achievements, they would not have been troubled by the bloodline bond, but would have accepted it happily.

“Heavenly Sparrow Elder, please tell me what has happened to Nine Nether,” Mu Chen requested with a smile.

When Mu Chen asked about Nine Nether, Heavenly Sparrow Elder looked sad and said, “Estate Master, please save Nine Nether and our Nine Netherbird Clan!”

When Mu Chen heard him, his face no longer looked gentle, but his eyes became cold. He then said, “Don’t worry. I will not let anything bad happen to Nine Nether. What has happened?”

“Some time ago, Nine Nether came back and told the Clan Leader that she wanted to look for an opportunity to help her evolve. She said that she was too weak, so she wanted to awaken the Undying Bloodline and step into the Sovereign Divine Beasts category,” Heavenly Sparrow Elder reported with a wry smile.

When Mu Chen heard this, he squinted his eyes. Nine Nether must have known that Mu Chen had stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level, but she was still far behind him.

She knew that she would not be able to help him if she remained at the status quo. Thus, she had returned to the Nine Netherbird Clan to look for ways to evolve.

When Mu Chen thought of this, he felt emotional. Nine Nether had clearly done this for his sake.

“She was so persistent that the Clan Leader had no choice but to bring her to the Phoenix Clan. There is this Deification Pool at the Phoenix Clan, whereby all of the ancestors of the bird divine beasts have agreed that, before their Heavenly Sovereigns pass on, the Heavenly Sovereigns will sit in the Deification Pool and will fuse their Blood Essence into the pool,” he explained.

He then added, “This will be the opportunity that they leave behind for their descendants as well. After one of our ancestors has passed on in the pool, we can then send one more person to the pool. After our discussion, we decided to give the spot to Nine Nether.”

Having said that, Heavenly Sparrow Elder suddenly sighed, then said bitterly, “Here is the problem… No one expected for the son of the Phoenix King, Huang Xuanzhi, to cultivate the Nine Rounds Toward Sanctification Technique. This is a Rare Super Power. Every round, he needs to swallow the bloodline of a Sovereign Divine Beast. Huang Xuanzhi has completed eight rounds and is now eyeing the bloodline of Nine Nether’s Undying Bird.”

“Nine Rounds Toward Sanctification Technique?” Mu Chen was shocked, as this Super Power was listed on the 36 Rare Super Powers and was extremely powerful. He had not expected Huang Xuanzhi to be able to cultivate it!

“Nine Nether is the hope of our clan. If the bloodline of her Undying Bird is devoured by Huang Xuanzhi, she will not be able to advance any further. Basically, she will be crippled!” Heavenly Sparrow Elder said, while gritting his teeth.

He then added, “The Phoenix King has told us that, if we are unwilling to hand over the bloodline, once they enter the Deification Pool, Huang Xuanzhi will take it from Nine Nether personally. If this happens, Nine Nether may even lose her life!”

He shook his head, clearly tense as he continued, “According to the rules, we can find someone to protect Nine Nether when she enters the Deification Pool, but the only Heavenly Sovereign in our Nine Netherbird Clan is only at the middle stage of the Spiritual Grade Heavenly Sovereign level. As such, he will not be able to protect Nine Nether.”

He shook his head once more. “During this period, we have been doing our best to invite qualified Heavenly Sovereigns here, but they are afraid of the Phoenix Clan and have refused to help us. Thus, we have come here, hoping that Estate Master can help Nine Nether!”

When Heavenly Sparrow Elder said this, he was tearful and was about to kneel before Mu Chen to start truly begging for his help. However, Mu Chen lifted him up.

As Heavenly Sparrow Elder looked at Mu Chen’s face, he felt unsettled. He did not know if Mu Chen would agree to help Nine Nether or not.

Although Mu Chen and Nine Nether were bonded by the bloodline, after all, it was the Phoenix Clan that they were talking about, and no ordinary Heavenly Sovereign in the Great Thousand World had the audacity to set himself against the Phoenix Clan. As he looked at Mu Chen, he finally saw a mocking look on Mu Chen’s face.

“He wants to get it for himself?” As Mu Chen turned to look at Heavenly Sparrow Elder, his calm and cold voice caused even Heavenly Sparrow Elder to shiver. He was touched by what Mu Chen had just said.

“Heavenly Sparrow Elder, bring me there. I would like to see what capabilities this Huang Xuanzhi possesses that can enable him to take the bloodline away…” Mu Chen requested.
