Chapter 611: Chapter 610: The Sakura Ancient Gods Are Dead? Did Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng Do It?
The Sakura Country’s national treasury was emptied overnight!
The eastern capital has been reduced to scorched earth and ruins!
The five great Ancient Gods of Sakura have all perished, their bodies and souls utterly destroyed, without even a trace of their Divine Souls left behind!
Mount Fuji has fully erupted, a super-tsunami has swept across the entire nation, and Sakura Country has sunk completely beneath the sea!
...
Piece after piece of explosive news instantly set the entire Great Xia forums ablaze.
"Can someone tell me if any of this news is actually true?"
"It has to be fake! How could five Emperor Realm Middle Stage experts just vanish like that?"
"A super-tsunami swallowing the entire Sakura Country? Even screenwriters wouldn’t dare write something so ridiculous! The media these days will make up anything for clicks!"
A tide of doubt flooded the internet.
The vast majority of people felt the news was too outrageous to possibly be true.
However, these skeptical voices were soon drowned out by a growing number of posts providing concrete proof.
"I’m on a reef by the East China Sea right now. With my own eyes, I saw monstrous waves hundreds of meters high rising up from the direction of Sakura Country. The entire sea level has risen!"
"I have a friend in Sakura Country. He confirmed the first three news items are true. As for the last one... I can’t reach him anymore."
"Open your damn eyes and look carefully! This news was officially released by Great Xia!"
The people of Great Xia finally accepted the unbelievable truth.
The Sakura Ancient Gods were truly all dead.
The Sakura Country, arrogant for hundreds of years, had truly become a thing of the past.
...
「Jing University.」
Xiao Tian, Luo Qingyu, and Shen Yixuan dragged their exhausted bodies through the campus gates.
Their clothes were still stained with dried blood, their hair was a mess, and their eyes were completely bloodshot.
They had been immersed in the Alien Race battlefields recently, killing quite a few members of the Alien Race.
They were still students and weren’t required to go to the Alien Race battlefields.
The university didn’t mandate it, and the Military Department hadn’t drafted them. They had volunteered to go.
The current situation in Great Xia had already reached a precarious point.
Ever since Chu Sheng annihilated the Qin Family, the Qin Family’s ancestor had, in a fit of rage, abandoned his post guarding Sakura Country.
After he stormed off, the ancestors of the Xia Family and the Xuanyuan Family also went on strike one after another.
Of Great Xia’s eight public-facing Emperor Realm experts, three were suddenly gone.
Morale on the Alien Race battlefields was naturally affected, so they had taken the initiative to contribute.
Just then, the chatter of the surrounding students suddenly reached their ears.
"Did you guys hear? Sakura Country is gone!"
"It’s more than that! I heard those five Sakura Ancient Gods are all dead too!"
"Oh my god! For real? Who’s that powerful?"
"No idea. The internet is in an uproar about it, and there are all sorts of theories."
The three of them stopped in their tracks, exchanged a look, and shouted in near-perfect unison, "Holy crap, the Divine Mosquito is in Sakura Country!"
They didn’t stop to wonder why the Sakura Ancient Gods had suddenly died, nor did they ponder why a super-tsunami had erupted.
They had only one thought on their minds— ’What happened to that mosquito?’
"That’s the Divine Mosquito we’re talking about! He’s got incredible luck, he’ll definitely be fine!" Xiao Tian, as Chu Sheng’s number one fanboy, said with a resolute tone.
But Luo Qingyu frowned. "But I heard it stole Sakura Country’s national treasury. The Sakura Ancient Gods would never let it get away with that."
Hearing Luo Qingyu’s words, the conviction on Xiao Tian’s face began to waver.
After all, he had a notorious reputation for jinxing things.
Last time, he had said that the Divine Mosquito wouldn’t even be afraid of facing three Half-Emperor Realm experts.
And then, three Half-Emperor Realm experts really did show up right after.
This time, he really didn’t dare to speak casually.
"Let’s stop guessing blindly. We should first check online for any news about the Divine Mosquito."
Luo Qingyu took out her phone and quickly opened a forum on a social media app.
At that moment, almost everyone was discussing it.
Just who could wipe out five Emperor Realm Ancient Gods in one fell swoop and also sink the entire Sakura Country into the sea?
"I bet it was Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng! Weren’t they the ones who went to Sakura Country to fill the void left by the Qin Family’s ancestor? It must have been them!"
"The user above has a point! They’re our Great Xia’s youngest Emperor Realm experts. Their strength is undeniable!"
"I once saw Emperor Feng fight on the Northern Territory battlefield! Back then he was only at the Royal Realm, but he could go toe-to-toe with a Half-Emperor. Killing an Emperor Realm Middle Stage Sakura Ancient God now should be no problem for him!"
"And Emperor Lin! He’s a true genius, even stronger than Emperor Feng!"
"Looking at it this way, it must have been Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng who teamed up, killed the Sakura Ancient Gods, and eliminated a great threat for our Great Xia!"
"Hmph! In the end, isn’t it all that damn mosquito’s fault! If it hadn’t offended the Qin Family, Ancestor Qin Yuan wouldn’t have washed his hands of the matter, and the Sakura Ancient Gods wouldn’t have come out! And now two Great Emperors have to clean up its mess!"
Soon, however, someone raised an objection.
"Can you stop hyping them up? Use some common sense, will you? Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng are only at the Emperor Realm Early Stage."
"In the Emperor Realm, the gap between each minor stage is like a chasm that’s impossible to cross. Let alone fighting one against five. Even if the two of them teamed up, they’d be lucky to beat a single Emperor Realm Middle Stage expert."
"That’s right, the Emperor Realm isn’t the same as the Royal Realm. Cross-Level Combat is practically impossible. Therefore, the ones who killed the five Sakura Ancient Gods definitely couldn’t have been Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng."
"If not them, then who could it be? Could it be those two Emperor Realm experts from Northern Europe?"
"Give me a break! The moment those two saw that Ancestor Qin Yuan wasn’t getting involved, they packed their bags and ran."
For a time, the forums were filled with a cacophony of opinions. Everyone put forth all sorts of theories, but none of them could truly hold water.
Seeing this, an extremely absurd thought suddenly popped into the minds of Xiao Tian’s group.
’Could the deaths of the Sakura Ancient Gods... be related to the Divine Mosquito?’
As the number one fanboy, the more Xiao Tian thought about it, the more possible it seemed.
So, with trembling hands, he posted a comment on the forum: "If it’s impossible for anyone else, then the Divine Mosquito must have been the one who killed them!"
This single sentence instantly drew countless mocking and opposing replies.
"Are you kidding me? Is this some kind of sick joke?"
"Something even Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng couldn’t do, a mosquito managed it? Have you lost your mind?!"
"Yeah! That mosquito was at the King Realm at most before. Even if it stole Sakura Country’s treasury, the highest it could have reached is the Royal Realm. A Royal Realm expert killing five Emperor Realm Middle Stage experts? You might as well say it can fly to the heavens!"
"Breaking news! After that mosquito emptied the treasury in Sakura, it was cut down in a single strike by the Sakura Holy Emperor! Many people in the eastern capital saw it with their own eyes!"
"No way! So the mosquito really did steal the treasury?"
"It’s a thousand percent true! A friend of mine was in the eastern capital at the time and saw it himself. The Sakura Holy Emperor was absolutely livid."
"User above, is your friend still around?"
"He’s not... The last message he sent was that the Holy Emperor had killed the mosquito."
"See! The mosquito is dead! How could it come back to life and then go kill five Sakura Ancient Gods? Use your brain!"
"I’m sticking to my opinion. It was definitely Emperor Lin and Emperor Feng."
Seeing the news that Chu Sheng was dead, the three of them froze.
"Impossible," Xiao Tian murmured to himself.
Shen Yixuan patted his shoulder. "Don’t get worked up. This is probably just a rumor someone started for attention. Lord Divine Mosquito is so powerful, how could he possibly die?"
"Right! It must be a rumor!" Xiao Tian nodded emphatically.
