The voice in the sky paused for a moment after saying that, as if he were expecting cheers and applause from the valley.
But what he got was nothing but cold silence.
All the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector were confused. Looking at each other in bewilderment, they found it absurd and amusing.
"'Xing Yao Federation'? 'Special district'? 'Supreme Council'? What kind of nonsense is that?"
"He is not Master Spiritual Vulture. I've heard Master Spiritual Vulture's speeches before. His voice is definitely not so frivolous and casual!"
"Fake! Fake! Impostor!"
Hearing the clamor of the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector, Elder Scorching Sun's face was even more gloomy. He sneered and said, "You are truly incoherent and irrelevant. Has any fellow Cultivator picked up a certain weird secret technique of telepathy and come here to make fun of me?"
"Absolutely not. Everything I said was true. I was thinking for you, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun. You are in great trouble, and you are about to be killed. Do you know that I am the only one who can save you right now?"
The voice in the clouds grew anxious. "The whole thing is rather complicated. If I have to explain it in terms that you can understand, it will go something like this. In fact, I am a legendary 'deity' who travels in the Ancient Sages Sector under the identity of 'Master Spiritual Vulture' to lead you to the 'deities' realm '. Right now, Qi Zhongdao, Han Baling, Yan Liren, and the other fellow Cultivators have been brought to the' deities' realm by me. They are deeply awed by the prosperity and development of the 'deities' realm 'and have decided to join a' deities' realm 'named the Xing Yao Federation.
"As you all know, Emperor Phoenix Zhu Zongyou and King Dark Cloud Han Baling are the legal rulers of the Great Qian Dynasty and the Dark Cloud Prairies, respectively. There are also Qi Zhongdao and Yan Liren, representatives of the major sects in the world of Cultivators, Qi Changsheng and Wan Mingzhu, representatives of the bottom-level people, and Master Bitter Cicada. Therefore, the decision is quite democratic, legal, and representative. All in all, the Ancient Sages Sector has become a member of the Xing Yao Federation, and we are here to establish a special district.
"Of course, the 'deities' realm and the deities' realm that I mentioned are not the same as what you are imagining. But that is a different question. Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun, can you retract your technique and let's talk later?"
"…"
Elder Scorching Sun was stunned for a long time before he burst into laughter. "Ha. Hahaha. Hahahaha!"
After he laughed, the soldiers and disciples of the Angry Fire Army and the Red Sun Sect laughed too. The laughter seemed to be contagious and soon spread throughout the valley. The hundred thousand Cultivators were all convulsing with laughter. The hundreds of square kilometers around the Angry Fire Mountain were brimming with a cheerful atmosphere, turning into an ocean of joy.
"Immortals, Immortal World, Immortal Kingdom?"
Elder Scorching Sun laughed so hard that his tears were almost flowing out. He pointed at the sky and shouted, "Whoever you are, your lie is too absurd. If you are really a deity who has returned from the deities' realm with countless divine weapons, divine generals, and divine boats, where are the divine weapons, where are the divine boats, and where are Qi Zhongdao, Yan Liren, Han Baling, and all the other fellow Cultivators? Why are all of you acting so sneakily and not daring to come out and meet people? Instead, you're bragging here! "
"That's why I said that you are in big trouble!"
The voice in the clouds said, somewhat pitifully. "Before we left, we issued the 'Divine Wrath Order', ordering all the Cultivators in the world to behave themselves and not to use their weapons or commit crimes. But you turned a deaf ear to it, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun. Not only have you been recruiting, expanding, and swallowing the smaller sects that are not obedient to you, showing no respect to the 'top ten experts' at all, you were even bold enough to kill Fellow Cultivator Qi Changsheng's Heaven Battering Army. Even 'Heaven Sweeping King' Zhao Changlie, the deputy commander of the Heaven Battering Army, was captured by you and humiliated in public.
"This is a big deal, really. We've only been back to the Ancient Sages Sector for half a day, and we've already collected so many evil deeds of yours. Right now, none of the fellow Cultivators here want to talk to you anymore. They only want to throw a bunch of warships at your face. 'Heaven Battering King' Qi Changsheng, in particular, is already jumping up and down in fury, yelling that he is going to mince you into pieces and feed you to the dogs! It's all thanks to me that you were able to keep yourself alive until now, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun! "
After hearing that, the valley fell into silence again.
All the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector were dumbfounded. They looked at each other with the same question in their eyes. "Did — Did I hear it wrong?"
Elder Scorching Sun was so infuriated that he was about to explode. Even the fiery fiend in the sky was waving its claws and shrieking, "Good. Good. Mince you into pieces and feed you to the dogs. After I find where your real body is, I'm going to do exactly what you did and make you beg for death!"
"Why didn't you listen to my advice?"
The voice in the sky couldn't have sounded more aggrieved. "I've already put in all the good words for you here. I said that although the federation is a society governed by laws, the situation in the Ancient Sages Sector is rather special after all. It is in a different phase of social development from the outside world, and there are all kinds of historical problems. Han Baling, Qi Changsheng, and other fellow Cultivators are not pure, innocent lotuses. Fighting and killing are nothing out of the ordinary for them, right?
"It is exactly because they cannot be generalized that we have to establish a 'special district'!
"Yes, we did establish the 'Divine Wrath Order' years ago, but you did not break out of seclusion until after we left, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun. Perhaps you did not understand the situation at that time. Besides, we were partly in the wrong. We promised that we would be back in a year and a half, but as it turned out, the dark nebula was too tricky to deal with. We got lost halfway and were delayed for more than a year.
"All in all, although what you did was unpardonable, it was still understandable. Considering that you have worked hard for a hundred years, we should still give you a chance to turn over a new leaf and repay society and the public.
"After much persuasion, Qi Changsheng and the rest of the fellow Cultivators finally agreed to it reluctantly. However, they had one condition, too.
"If you choose to confess and be executed after witnessing the formidability of the 'divine boats' and the 'divine soldiers' of the Federation, your sincerity will not be demonstrated at all. It will seem that we are the ones who are bullying you.
"If I can convince you to drop your magical equipment and techniques and raise your hands to surrender without any evidence, it will mean that you still have the potential to be reformed. All the fellow Cultivators here are all broad-minded people who care about the universe. They won't bother you about the violation of the 'Divine Wrath Order' anymore.
"Really, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun, you must think carefully. You only have one life. Is it easy to advance into the Divinity Transformation Stage after all the hard work? This is your last chance. You must seize it. Don't get yourself killed! "
Hearing that the voice in the sky was getting more and more outrageous, all the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector in the valley swallowed hard and shuddered.
It was impossible for them to imagine Elder Scorching Sun burst into fury.
Elder Scorching Sun was shaking so hard that he could barely cover his head. The air within a hundred meters around him was emitting redness like magma. But he was so infuriated that he laughed and gnashed his teeth. "Alright. I wonder, how do you want me to 'seize the opportunity', Fellow Cultivator Spiritual Vulture?"
But his eyes hinted at the disciples of the 'Red Sun Sect' nearby to fly to the sky on the red clouds and search for the source of the wretched voice.
He was certain that the guy must have grasped a certain zigzagging secret technique and was chuckling in a corner!
The voice in the clouds, however, seemed quite happy. "It's great that you are so considerate. Right now, a lot of media outlets in the Federation are paying attention to our magnificent landing. I personally hope that we can make a peaceful, friendly, and happy landing into a model of 'peaceful settlement'.
"Here's the thing. With the power granted to me by the 'Ancient Sages Special District Committee' and the 'Ancient Sages Temporary Special Law', I declare that in the next forty-eight hours, centered at the gate of the 'Red Sun Sect', the five hundred square kilometers around the Angry Fire Mountain will be a no-fly zone. All the Cultivators are not allowed to rise or fly on their swords. All in all, if you stay more than five meters in the sky for more than three seconds, you will be shot down. This is a temporary rule to maintain order. I hope you can understand.
"Also, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun's Rising Sun Ceremony is so grand that everyone in the world knows what he is up to. All the Fellow Cultivators who have come to participate in the Rising Sun Ceremony today are suspected of violating the Divine Wrath Order. They must be screened and investigated one by one.
"Rest assured. It is just an investigation. If you do not violate the 'Divine Wrath Order', you will be set free very soon.
"After our starships descend below the atmosphere, the screening and investigation will begin. Now, please stay where you are, fellow Cultivators. Also, I'll have to trouble Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun to maintain the order with your disciples and troops. That will be your atonement for your crimes. I guarantee that as long as you help us complete the screening and investigation with all your heart, your crimes will certainly be punished leniently.
"I'm done. Does everybody understand me? What about you, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun? Do you have any questions?"
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Shua! Everybody stared at Elder Scorching Sun, waiting to see how he would respond to such … crazy words.
Elder Scorching Sun's face turned from white to green, from green to red, from red to purple, from purple to black, and from black back to white. The earth below his feet was vaguely shaking, as if infinite magma was about to spurt out. The fiery fiend in the sky was rolling nonstop, with thunderbolts exploding inside its body one after another!
"B * stard, you have tricked me to such an extent!"
Elder Scorching Sun opened his hands. The light balls above the six giant hands of the fiery fiend all exploded. Thousands of arcs of light filled the entire sky, making the sky that was already burning even more dazzling. The whole valley seemed to be on fire, too. All the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector could not help but close their eyes. All they could hear was Elder Scorching Sun's desperate roars. "Show yourself! Show yourself! Show yourself! Show yourself, you b * stard who is hiding your head but showing your tail! "
"You …"
The voice in the clouds was not affected by the light balls and the electric arcs at all. It was still as clear as ever, but it sighed gloomily. "I'm already such a coward, and you are still asking to be killed. What else can I say? You are doomed. Really, Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun, even if all the deities and devils in the universe kneel before me and beg for mercy on your behalf, they will not be able to save you. "
The fourth update was delivered again!
Speaking of which, Old Cow changed his cover again today. It was the cover of the first episode of the simplified version of '40,000 Years in the Space Zone'. He felt that it was quite delicate. Hahahaha.
