Chapter 677: Chapter 676: Cut the Crap! After I’m Done with Sakura, I Still Have to Go Save the Little Empress
"Why’d all the Sakura dogs run away?"
"Idiot, didn’t you see the National Guardian Divine Mosquito?"
"That’s not right. I remember the National Guardian Divine Mosquito wasn’t in Kyoto."
"Maybe he just rushed back."
"Whatever, it’s not important. The point is, as soon as the National Guardian Divine Mosquito came back, the Sakura dogs took off."
"And they had the nerve to come looking for trouble with the National Guardian Divine Mosquito."
"A couple of major dumbasses. The National Guardian Divine Mosquito didn’t even have to make a move to scare them off."
"They’re lucky they ran fast. Otherwise, the National Guardian Divine Mosquito would’ve pinned them down and wiped the floor with them."
The citizens of Kyoto didn’t know that time had been rewound, much less that they had already died once.
All they saw was that the once incomparably arrogant Sakura Ancient Gods, who had threatened to bathe Kyoto in blood, didn’t dare make a peep after the National Guardian Divine Mosquito appeared.
They immediately tore open a spatial rift and scurried away in disgrace.
In an instant, thunderous cheers erupted throughout Kyoto.
The people’s adoration for Chu Sheng once again rose to a new height.
Many even fell directly to their knees, kowtowing to Chu Sheng’s figure.
They had come to see Chu Sheng as the god who had saved Great Xia.
「Jing University.」
Xiao Tian smugly puffed out his chest and said to the surrounding students,
"See? I knew it. When Lord Mosquito makes a move, he gets the job done and then some."
"Sakura Ancient Gods? Please. In front of Lord Mosquito, they’re not even a fart."
Shen Yixuan stared dumbfounded in the direction where the Sakura Ancient Gods had disappeared.
Although he couldn’t figure out what had just happened...
Why the Sakura Ancient Gods had summoned their Divine Domains one second...
...and fled the next.
But he had to admit.
The National Guardian Divine Mosquito’s deterrent power...
...was too damn strong!!!
"Alright, from now on, I’m a Lord Mosquito fan with you,"
Shen Yixuan said seriously.
"My brother!"
Xiao Tian excitedly threw an arm around Shen Yixuan’s shoulders.
"Let’s go! We’re hitting the club tonight! My treat! To celebrate Lord Mosquito saving Great Xia again!"
For a time, all of Kyoto was a scene of peace and prosperity, brimming with joy.
Everyone was celebrating this hard-won...
No, wait,
It should be an easily-won victory.
Only the three Emperors who knew the truth—Li Guanlan, Lin Yuehua, and Feng Wuji—had their brows tightly furrowed.
There wasn’t the slightest trace of joy on their faces.
Only deep worry.
The three Emperors and Chu Sheng went to the Military Department’s most secure conference room.
As soon as the door was closed,
Feng Wuji fell with a THUD, almost kneeling before Chu Sheng.
"National Guardian Divine Mosquito, Lord Divine Mosquito, Lord Mosquito..."
"I’m begging you, please, just leave now."
"Although I don’t know what method you used to scare off Iyaki and Iyami..."
"...they are true Sakura Ancient Gods, with strength at the Refining God Realm at the very least!"
"Going after them alone in three days is no different from a suicide mission!"
Li Guanlan and Lin Yuehua said nothing.
But the worried expressions on their tightly-knit brows said it all.
Like Feng Wuji, they still didn’t have faith in Chu Sheng.
They still hoped that Chu Sheng would hide as soon as possible.
Hide somewhere the Sakura Ancient Gods couldn’t find him.
And once he was strong enough, he could come back and avenge them.
"Alright, that’s enough nonsense."
Chu Sheng waved a foreleg impatiently.
"Stop your damn whining. You sound like a bunch of women, nagging on and on."
"I didn’t come to the Military Department with you just to listen to you drone on."
"What’s the status on the information I had you collect about the ancient Insect Race?"
The three Emperors glanced at each other, and each saw the deep helplessness in the others’ eyes.
They knew Chu Sheng had already made up his mind.
No matter how they tried to persuade him, they couldn’t possibly change his mind.
"Lord Divine Mosquito, since you have already made your choice..."
"...we will support you with all our might."
Lin Yuehua sighed.
She took out a thick folder and handed it to Chu Sheng.
"This is all the information our Military Department has gathered on the ancient Insect Race."
"Also, if there is anything else you need help with, please don’t hesitate to ask."
Chu Sheng took the folder and flipped through it casually.
The information compiled by the Military Department was very precise, saving Chu Sheng a good deal of time.
Chu Sheng thought for a moment. There was indeed one urgent matter.
"If you have nothing better to do, go help me find some Emperor Level Spatial Treasures."
"I’m still short two of them. The sooner, the better."
In the next three days, he needed to increase his strength as quickly as possible.
He didn’t have time to search everywhere for Emperor Level Spatial Treasures.
After he took care of things with the East Japan Divine Domain, he had to rush off to the Spirit Realm to find Gu Yuexi without delay.
And finding five Emperor Level Spatial Treasures to synthesize the Boundary Star Astrolabe was the most important prerequisite for traveling to the Spirit Realm.
’A mosquito’s life...’
’...is so busy!!!’
The three Emperors were all troubled when they heard Chu Sheng’s request.
Emperor Level Spatial Treasures were already extremely rare.
The entire Great Xia Military Department only had one, the Void Emperor’s Seal, and it had already been given to Chu Sheng.
Finding another two would be incredibly difficult.
But the three of them still nodded solemnly.
"We will do our utmost to find them."
"You don’t have to look."
Chu Sheng produced a folded slip of paper and handed it to Lin Yuehua.
"Just follow the addresses on here and pick the two easiest places to retrieve them from."
The addresses on this slip of paper were precisely the ones Immortal Venerable Shi Xi had given him.
On it were written the specific locations of six undiscovered Emperor Level Spatial Treasures on Blue Star.
Emperor Level Magical Treasures were already rare.
Spatial-type Emperor Level Magical Treasures were rarer still.
In the six hundred years since the Spiritual Energy Awakening, the number of Emperor Level Spatial Treasures discovered by humanity...
...totaled no more than a dozen or so across the entire globe.
And yet, Chu Sheng had casually produced the locations of six of them.
The three Emperors stared at the slip of paper, at the detailed addresses and retrieval methods listed one by one.
They were once again dumbfounded.
They felt even more strongly...
...that Chu Sheng’s background was unfathomably deep...
Ignoring the dumbfounded trio,
Chu Sheng left the Military Department with Xue.
For the next three days,
he planned to sweep through all the Secret Realms related to the Time Law.
Then he would visit all the places related to the ancient Insect Race to see if he could further increase the collection progress of his Mosquito Daoist Bloodline.
...
「Meanwhile.」
After leaving Great Xia, Iyaki and Iyami did not return to the East Japan Divine Domain.
Instead, they came to the Extreme North Divine Domain.
This was the territory of the Norse gods.
The two of them walked into a magnificent hall and looked up at the high throne.
"Odin, you must have heard the news about that mosquito."
"If we don’t kill it soon,"
"once it’s fully grown, all of our Divine Domains will be finished."
"It will kill every single one of us."
Odin stared at Iyaki and Iyami for a while before finally speaking slowly.
His voice was like a great bell,
yet it was filled with contempt.
"A common White-striped Aedes Mosquito has you this scared."
"You two were useless in the Divine Revelation Era."
"You were useless during the Fall of the Gods Era."
"And now, in this era of Spiritual Energy Awakening, you are just as useless as ever."
"You..."
Iyaki trembled with rage.
His Divine Domain slowly began to unfurl.
The divine power in his body began to surge wildly.
"Courting death!"
Odin snorted coldly.
His right hand slammed down on the handle of the Thunder God’s Hammer.
An even more terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire hall.
A great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
Iyami quickly tugged on Iyaki’s sleeve and shook her head at him.
Iyaki snorted coldly.
He unwillingly dispersed his coalescing Divine Domain.
Iyami turned to Odin and flashed a sweet smile.
"Lord Odin, everything you’ve said is correct."
"My brother and I are indeed useless."
"But this mosquito is no ordinary mosquito."
"It carries the aura of the Mosquito Daoist, you see!"
