Chapter 1119: Ye Zichen's Goal
Ye Zichen's shocking words reverberated in her ears. Chi Mei looked over in a daze, then noticed Ye Zichen's expression. She had a bad feeling.
Erect another Divine Mountain?
This idea had been in place since the God Realm's founding. Ever since Empress Myrtlestar returned to the stars, the God Realm's map had been set in stone. It hadn't changed in the past billions of years.
Yet now Ye Zichen was saying he wanted to destroy the Divine Mountains and erect another?
She instinctively reached out to touch Ye Zichen's forehead. Ye Zichen frowned and dodged, only to hear Chi Mei speak up.
Then, she said, "Sweetie, are you sick?"
"You're the one who's sick." Ye Zichen rolled his eyes in exasperation, then said, "are you telling me I'm wrong? If you can have nine Divine Mountains hanging in the sky, why can't you have another? Besides, if a Divine Mountain exists, is it invincible? It can't be destroyed? "
In response to Ye Zichen's barrage of questions, all Chi Mei could do was shake her head repeatedly. She took a few steps back and stared at his resolute gaze in astonishment.
"Sweetie, your way of thinking is really dangerous!"
This was beyond Chi Mei's comprehension. She'd lived in the God Realm for so long, but this was the first time she'd heard of destroying or erecting a Divine Mountain.
Ye Zichen paid no heed to her exclamations.
The way he saw it, his way of thinking was correct. Since it existed, there was always a chance it could reappear, but there was also a chance it could be destroyed.
The other gods didn't think that way, nor did they do it. It could only be said that they weren't strong enough.
But that didn't mean it was impossible!
He'd thought that, as the Five Elements Great Emperor's son, she might be able to help him out. Now it seemed he'd been wasting his time.
Ye Zichen couldn't be bothered to waste any more time with her. He headed straight for his room.
"Serves him right."
By now, Gao Ruilong had already returned to the Gao Family's lands. News of his loss of both arms had instantly spread throughout the clan.
The Cai Family's Cai Renfei sat in the courtyard, his expression cold and mocking. He'd already warned Gao Ruilong about the marriage proposal, but he'd ended up like this. He could only say that he deserved it.
"Brother Fei, Gao Ruilong's already gone to see the family head. If you leave him early and come back, if he mentions this to the patriarch, then you … "
The one who spoke was a direct descendant of the Cai Clan. He could be considered Cai Renfei's brother. Just like Cai Renfei, he had been sent by the Cai Clan to the Gao Clan to seek refuge.
In the past half a year, the Cai Clan had been very careful when they came to the Gao Clan. After all, this wasn't the Cai Clan. It wasn't a place where they could do as they pleased.
As soon as Cai Renfei abandoned Gao Ruilong and returned to the clan, Gao Ruilong's hands were chopped off.
In the first place, the Gao Family didn't particularly like them. If the Gao Family Head took this opportunity to attack the Cai Family, it would be difficult for the Cai Family to escape destruction.
"What are you afraid of?"
Cai Renfei smiled faintly when he heard his brother's worry.
"The only reason Gao Ruilong ended up like this is because he's brainless. Recently, people from the Divine Mountains have come to visit the Gao Family. The Gao Family is incredibly busy right now. If Gao Ruilong went to his father for such a small matter, he would only be adding to his father's troubles. It's already good enough that he didn't get scolded by his father, but he still wants to put the blame on me? "
Before he'd even finished speaking, the jade slip in his brother's hands lit up. After reading the contents of the jade slip, a pleasantly surprised expression appeared on his face.
"Brother Fei, you're amazing! I just received word that Gao Ruilong went looking for Gao Xiong, but he was directly kicked out. From the looks of it, he even injured Gao Xiong. "
"Isn't that only natural?" Cai Renfei's expression was as cold as ever, as if everything was under his control. "Compared to the people of the Divine Mountains, Gao Ruilong's matter is nothing more than a trifling matter. He can't even handle a small matter like this, yet he still went looking for Gao Xiong? I'm afraid Gao Ruilong's position in Gao Xiong's heart can't get any lower. "
"From now on, we can't associate with Gao Ruilong anymore. If we stick with him, Gao Xiong might direct his anger at us. Gao Ruilong's chances of becoming the next head of the Gao Family are slim. Starting tomorrow …. Try to get in touch with Gao Yunting. "
"Understood!" The junior nodded.
After sending the junior off, Cai Renfei's eyes flashed with cold light.
"Ye Zichen!"
After returning to his room, Ye Zichen sat on his bed. Despite himself, he couldn't help but think of a plan.
In truth, selling off Sea Condensing Pills and attacking the Gao Family juniors had been part of his plan.
There was no need to explain how precious Sea Condensing Pills were. Even the immortal kings of the Lower Divine Mountains, including the seventy-two districts, fought over them like ducks.
Ye Zichen had suddenly announced that he was selling Sea Condensing Pills, and he'd even set a limit on how many they could sell.
Then, regardless of whether they had immortal kings or not, they'd all frantically gather their wealth to buy Sea Condensing Pills.
Clans with Sea Condensing Pills would help their immortal kings break through. Although it seemed like a boost to their clans' strength, wasn't it also weakening their clans?
When immortal kings broke through to supremacy, they had to ascend the Divine Mountains.
After losing so many of their immortal kings, Upheaval would become even more unstoppable. They'd sweep through the seventy-two districts, including the territories of the Lower Divine Mountains.
Although the Lower Divine Mountains was a barren wasteland, if they gathered all of its resources, even rulers might covet them.
After ascending to the Divine Mountains, Ye Zichen couldn't deny that he was looking for someone.
But don't forget, he was also here for revenge!
The Five Elements Great Emperor's enemies were the God Kings, but he'd hated the God Realm's lightning tribulation clan for a hundred years!
He'd heard from Yin Shang that the God Realm's Xiao Family wasn't to be trifled with. He naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble just because he was broke.
He needed a backer, and Upheaval ….
That was the foundation of all his plans!
Secondly, if he disregarded everything else and fought over Sea Condensing Pills, he'd cause the Lower Divine Mountains to run out of money, precious artifacts, and immortal herbs. All of those resources would be in Ye Zichen's hands.
Compared to strength, money wasn't all that powerful.
But once you had enough money, you could use it as a lever to move the world.
With the support of absolute resources, Upheaval would become Ye Zichen's sword, a tiger's leopard in his fight against the Xiao Family and the God Emperor!
These were all part of his calculations, and everything was going according to his plan, one step at a time.
As for the Gao Family, which he'd provoked on a whim ….
