Chapter 673 - 672: Rather Die Than Flee
Chapter 673: Chapter 672: Rather Die Than Flee
"Look, there are two Sakura People in the sky."
"Didn’t the National Guardian Divine Mosquito wipe out Sakura? How are there still remnants?"
"They were probably traveling in another country. Guess they got lucky and saved their hides."
"They can fly. They must be at least in the King Realm."
"King Realm ain’t squat. We’ve got at least two Emperor Realm experts stationed in Kyoto right now."
"It would’ve been so much better for them to just lay low and live, but no, they had to come to our Great Xia to die."
On the streets of Kyoto, the bustling crowds of people all stopped in their tracks.
They raised their heads, pointing and talking about the two figures in the sky.
Their tone was relaxed, without a trace of fear.
After all, Great Xia now had Chu Sheng, the National Guardian Divine Mosquito, as its anchor.
Forget two King Realm experts; even if two Emperor Realm experts came, they wouldn’t gain any advantage.
When Iyaki saw that the people of Great Xia showed no fear toward them, he couldn’t help but frown.
"Hmph! Ignorant Great Xia People."
Iyamei nestled in Iyaki’s arms and giggled.
"Don’t be angry, Brother. Let’s find that little mosquito first."
"Once we kill that mosquito, these Great Xia People will naturally fear us."
Iyaki nodded.
He channeled all his Divine Power and roared.
"People of Great Xia, listen up! Hand over the mosquito that destroyed my Sakura Empire immediately!"
"Otherwise, I, a god, will make all of Kyoto be buried alongside Sakura!"
Iyaki’s voice carried a terrifying divine power.
It instantly spread to every corner of Kyoto.
Jing University.
Xiao Tian, Chu Sheng’s number one fanboy, was in the middle of his Cultivation in one of the school’s Secret Realms.
When he heard the voice, he immediately ran out.
He looked up in the direction of the voice and curled his lip.
’Why are two more morons here looking for Lord Mosquito?’
’They couldn’t even pick a good time to get themselves killed.’
Shen Yixuan happened to be coming out of an adjacent Secret Realm as well.
Hearing Xiao Tian’s words, he rolled his eyes helplessly.
"Take a closer look! Do you see what Realm those two are at?!"
"Aren’t they just in the Pseudo-Divine Realm?"
Xiao Tian waved his hand dismissively.
"It’s not like Lord Mosquito hasn’t killed one before. Last time, didn’t he crush that Xuanyuan Changfeng fellow with ease?"
"Pseudo-Divine, my ass!"
Shen Yixuan swore.
"How many times have I told you? You should attend a few more academic classes."
"Xuanyuan Changfeng was indeed in the Pseudo-Divine Realm."
"But the power of these two Sakura People has already surpassed the Pseudo-Divine Realm!"
"Hehe~"
Xiao Tian scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Yixuan, what Realm are they in, then?"
Shen Yixuan’s expression was incredibly grim as he looked toward Iyaki and Iyamei.
He lowered his voice to a whisper.
"The Refining God Realm."
"It’s just one Realm higher than Pseudo-Divine. You think they can beat Lord Mosquito?"
Xiao Tian’s face was still full of disdain.
In his heart, Chu Sheng was invincible.
No matter what Realm his enemies were, Chu Sheng could defeat them with ease.
Shen Yixuan, however, shook his head, his expression grave.
"Every level up in the Divine Realm is a qualitative leap."
"Especially from the Pseudo-Divine Realm to the Refining God Realm."
"Without the Forbidden God Law, many in the Emperor Realm could advance to the Pseudo-Divine Realm."
"But among those in the Pseudo-Divine Realm, not even one in ten thousand can advance to the Refining God Realm."
"What’s more..."
Shen Yixuan fell silent for a moment.
"They... are likely not ordinary members of the Refining God Realm."
"If I’m not mistaken, they are very likely the Ancient Gods of Sakura."
"Their true power is definitely not limited to the Refining God Realm."
"It’s just that their Cultivation has been partially suppressed due to the existence of the Forbidden God Law."
"Your speculation is correct."
Just then, Vice Principal Sun Deming walked over, his face heavy.
"Principal Sun."
Shen Yixuan and Xiao Tian called out in unison.
Sun Deming frowned, looking at the two figures in the sky.
"The Principal just issued an emergency order."
"All students and faculty are to evacuate Kyoto immediately. Get as far away as you can."
"What?!?"
Shen Yixuan and Xiao Tian were both stunned.
The fight hadn’t even started.
And they were being told to run?
Sun Deming sighed helplessly.
"Principal Li said that the power of these two Sakura Ancient Gods is far beyond our imagination."
"If we stay, we’re just throwing our lives away."
"Just run as far as you can."
"Where there’s life, there’s hope."
Shen Yixuan and Xiao Tian looked at each other.
But they refused to move an inch.
And nearly all the students and faculty of Jing University made the same choice they did.
Everyone stood their ground, looking up at the Sakura Ancient Gods in the sky.
Their eyes were filled with anger and defiance.
If they were the Ancient Gods of any other nation,
everyone might have hesitated, might have followed the order to evacuate.
But facing the Sakura Ancient Gods,
even knowing they couldn’t win,
they would never...
flee in the face of the enemy!!!
「Meanwhile.」
Great Xia Military Department.
In the high command conference room.
Lin Yuehua and Feng Wuji heard Iyaki’s roar.
Feng Wuji’s brows furrowed tightly.
"Strange. How did the Sakura Ancient Gods get out with the Forbidden God Law in place?"
"How could they not be suppressed by the Forbidden God Law?"
Lin Yuehua’s answer seemed unrelated. "So Xuanyuan Changfeng, that test subject, was a success after all."
"What?"
Feng Wuji looked at Lin Yuehua, confused.
He didn’t understand why she had suddenly brought up Xuanyuan Changfeng.
Lin Yuehua’s voice grew even lower.
"Blood sacrifice of one’s own people."
That hint instantly jolted Feng Wuji.
His eyes shot wide open.
"Are you saying the Sakura Ancient Gods also sacrificed their own descendants to be able to walk freely under the Forbidden God Law?"
Lin Yuehua nodded.
"Other than that, I can’t think of any other way."
But Feng Wuji had a new question.
"But Sakura was already wiped out by the National Guardian Divine Mosquito."
"The entire Sakura Island has already sunk to the bottom of the sea."
"Where did the Sakura Ancient Gods find descendants to sacrifice?!"
"Sakura is gone, but Sakura People are still scattered in every corner of the world," Lin Yuehua reminded him.
"That’s not right either!"
Feng Wuji shook his head.
"There were few Sakura People scattered around the world to begin with."
"Among them, how many could possibly be their direct descendants?"
"Unless..."
As Feng Wuji spoke, the pieces finally clicked into place.
A look of disbelief appeared on his face.
The Sakura Ancient Gods, Iyaki and Iyamei, were a brother and sister of legend.
The entire lineage of Sakura Ancient Gods originated from this pair of siblings.
In other words, all Sakura People were their descendants!
"Right. You can’t apply Great Xia’s ethics to Sakura."
Feng Wuji shook his head with a bitter smile.
"What a bunch of animals."
"Let’s go."
Lin Yuehua stood up, her gaze fixed resolutely on the sky above Kyoto.
"If we don’t show ourselves soon, there’s no telling what kind of madness those two shameless bastards will unleash."
Feng Wuji followed resolutely behind Lin Yuehua.
He calmly said just one word.
"Go."
The faces of the two Emperor Realm experts both held a look of grim determination, as if ready to die.
「Before leaving.」
Lin Yuehua stopped a general at the Peak of the Emperor Realm.
"General Zhang, I’m giving you an order."
"Go to the Himalayas at once and find the National Guardian Divine Mosquito."
"Tell him he must not return."
"He can come back when his power is great enough to avenge us."
This was the best plan Lin Yuehua could think of.
