The desolate wilderness was covered in white as far as the eye could see.
It was obvious that this was a snowy mountain.
Bright sunlight shone on the snow, causing the ice and snow to sparkle.
Ye Zichen stood in the snow. His black robes were especially eye-catching in the pure white. His expression wasn't too good. He looked to the north with a dark expression.
How lucky!
They'd emerged from the sub-dimension rift, but the unruly three-legged golden crow didn't give him a good look.
"It really is …."
Ye Zichen looked in the direction the three-legged crow had left. The crow had transformed into a blazing sun and burned away the black hole, opening up a spatial passageway. Ye Zichen's heart was filled with the joy of surviving a calamity, as well as gratitude.
He'd wanted to thank him properly once he'd emerged, but he hadn't expected the crow to scowl at him, as if someone had stolen his treasure.
Ye Zichen asked himself if he'd ever offended the crow. He really couldn't understand why this guy was so hostile towards him.
Fortunately, the three-legged golden crow was rational and hadn't attacked him.
It was just verbal mockery, and nothing else was out of line.
But even though Ye Zichen resented the three-legged golden crow, he still remembered this favor. When the opportunity presented itself, he'd definitely repay it.
At his level, it was impossible for him to return a favor with ordinary small favors. How exactly was he supposed to repay this life-saving favor ….
Blue bears liked peach juice. Ye Zichen wondered if the three-legged golden crow would be interested in such delicacies.
What he was more concerned about was its true form.
The three-legged golden crow!
In the legends of the Modern Realm, Hou Yi once shot down nine suns, leaving only one, the current sun.
The Modern Realm, which revered science, already knew that the sun was a fixed star. The three-legged golden crow was just a myth.
However, Ye Zichen had come into contact with a former deity, seen the Great Sage wreak havoc in the Heavenly Court, befriended the Heavenly Court's War God Yang Jian, and interacted with the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor. He'd also learned that the love story between the Supreme Treasure and Fairy Zixia really did exist. This time, the three-legged golden crow had transformed into a sun.
Was it possible that the sun the world believed to be a fixed star really was a three-legged golden crow?
Ye Zichen smiled and shook his head. He didn't dwell on the matter any longer. He had encountered too many strange things. Even if the sun was really a three-legged Golden Crow, it was nothing for him to make a fuss about.
Moreover, he still had to seek revenge from Gu Xuande!
Even if …
If Gu Xuande had not thrown him into the dimensional rift, he would not have met Pilar.
He couldn't bring this guy out of the Time Corridor either!
But that was a completely different matter!
He had been thrown into the Dimensional Spatial Crack, almost causing him to die in the Spatial Storm. No matter what, he would not let this grudge go. Even if he couldn't defeat him, he still had to demand an explanation from him.
"How is it? How does it feel to be in the God Race's territory?"
Ye Zichen glanced to the side. In the end, the great demon king left the subdimension with Ye Zichen.
At that moment, Pilar was just a few meters away from Ye Zichen. He looked around at the pure white snow, his eyes flashing with surprise, as if he'd never seen snow before.
"God Race?"
Pilar was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly understood.
"You humans really think too highly of yourselves. You're just an ordinary, low-level race, yet you call yourself a god race."
"I don't care what you say. In any case, everyone here calls this place the God Race."
Ye Zichen ignored Pilar's slander and chuckled.
Furthermore, Pilar's words weren't directed at him. He was merely stating a fact. There was no need for Ye Zichen to argue with him.
"Is this your territory?" asked Pilar.
"Of course not."
Ye Zichen looked around, then extended his divine sense outwards. If his guess was right, this was the Divine Mountain under the Jade Lake Palace Head's control. However, it was very close to the Central Divine Mountain.
It was just as the Divine Arbiter had said.
From here, he could clearly see that the Central Divine Mountain was surrounded by a blood-colored barrier. Divine sense couldn't reach inside, and the mountain was completely isolated from the outside world.
Ye Zichen had no way of knowing what Zhou Zhouwu was doing inside. However, Ye Zichen sensed something unusual about the blood-colored barrier.
"There's something special about this barrier!!"
Pilar spoke up as well. Clearly, she had also noticed the bloody orb of the Central Divine Mountain.
"Of course! The God Emperor lives there!"
"The God Emperor? Are you not? You're the Lord of the Emperor Star. If nothing out of the ordinary happens, you should be the leader of the human race. "
"Why do you say that?"
"Isn't it only natural?"
Pilar felt that Ye Zichen was absolutely right!
Perhaps it was because he was the Demon King that he had such thoughts.
In his inherited memories, the Lord of the Emperor Star's status was similar to his status as the Demon King. He was an existence capable of leading the human race to prosperity.
The Emperor Star should be the God Emperor of the God Race.
Unfortunately, this was a special time. The ambitious Zhou Wu wasn't the kind of wise ruler who could abdicate his throne.
Who knew? Zhou Wu might even be researching how to steal Ye Zichen's starlight and celestial fate.
"Let's not talk about this anymore!"
Ye Zichen couldn't be bothered to argue. He waved his hand and dropped the subject.
At this point in time, it was no longer important who would take the position of God Emperor. Besides, there was already a clear difference between the two of them.
The righteous and the unrighteous.
The righteous received much support, while the unrighteous received little.
That was the case between Ye Zichen and Zhou Wu. Practically all of the God Race's emperors were on good terms with Ye Zichen. As for Zhou Wu, he had practically no trusted aides he could use.
In these special times, he wasn't thinking about how to defend against foreign enemies.
Rather, he'd sealed up the Divine Mountains and was busy with who knew what.
To tell the truth, Zhou Wu wasn't much of a threat to Ye Zichen.
He wasn't much of a threat anymore!
However, the Central Divine Mountain's current situation was strange. He still had to be on guard. Once he returned to the Tenth Divine Mountain, he'd have to send some people to keep an eye on the Central Divine Mountain.
Pilar could tell that Ye Zichen didn't want to discuss this any further, so he didn't say anything else.
However ….
"I didn't think you'd really leave the Time Corridor. It seems you're coming back with me?"
Pilar's concession allowed Ye Zichen to shift the topic back to him.
However, he didn't resist too much. From the moment he left the Time Corridor, he'd already made up his mind.
"What?" asked Pilar.
"If that's the case, shouldn't we be more honest with each other?"
