My Fury Will Burn The Heavens

Dao Nu’s status and rank were quite high. He had already been with the Azure Supreme Thearch for thousands of years. He was almost like the spokesperson of the Azure Supreme Thearch. The Azure Supreme Thearch had never married and had kids. That meant he lived a life of solidarity. There were only two people he was close to. One was dead, and the other was Dao Nu. That was why the Dao Clan was allowed to manage the Azure Supreme Thearch Army.

The Azure Supreme Thearch was widely accepted to be the first of the four Supreme Thearchs. His battle capabilities were the most powerful, and he was the closest in terms of skill to the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch. As the Azure Supreme Thearch’s spokesperson, Dao Nu was very well-respected and revered. He seldom left the Azure Supreme Thearch’s side. This time, however, he had personally come to Nine Yang City for Jiang Yi.

“Brother Dao Nu.”

Heavenly King Mu stood up and cupped his hands. The other Heavenly Kings followed suit. Dao Nu was from their generation, but when Dao Nu had made a name for himself, none of them were Heavenly Kings yet. Even Heavenly King Yun was still the second Young Master of the Yun Clan. That was why Dao Nu referred to Heavenly King Yun as ‘Number Two of the Yun Clan’.

Heavenly King Yun remained expressionless as he got to his feet.

“Whether I can lift it or not is my business!”

Dao Nu’s back was as bent as a shrimp’s, but he still held his chin high, making him look especially crooked. His eyes were not blurry; instead, they were clear as day. As he glared at Heavenly King Yun, he said, “I came here today for my grandson. Number Two of the Yun Clan, are you going to give me face this time? If you don’t, don’t blame me for flying into a rage.”

“Flying into a rage?”

Heavenly King Yun’s expression hardened as he slowly said, “Do you think you alone can fly into a rage in Nine Yang City? If your master comes, maybe he will be able to. You, however… are not worthy!”

Heavenly King Mu noticed that something was amiss. He quickly stepped in and said, “Brother Dao Nu, Big Brother Yun, please calm down. We are all getting on in age. Let’s not get over-agitated over such a small matter. This will hurt the human race and aid the Netherworld Race’s agenda!”

Dao Nu’s sinister gaze scanned Jiang Yi from head to toe. Determined, he said, “I must take this lad away today. If you try to stop me, I will have no choice but to offend you.”

“Go ahead and try!”

Heavenly King Yun immediately stood in front of Jiang Yi. The four other Heavenly Kings got to their feet and stood on either side of Heavenly King Yun as well. If Dao Nu dared to attack in Nine Yang City, they could not sit back and watch.

Buzz!

Dao Nu’s ring lit up, and a green, huge battle saber measuring about six meters appeared in his hands. It was extremely sharp, and its aura was frightening. Jiang Yi could faintly see a green glow surrounding the saber. There were even mysterious patterns on the saber’s handle. The moment the saber appeared in Dao Nu’s hands, the circulation of the air in the entire hall stopped.

“The Heaven-Splitting Saber!”

Heavenly King Yun and the others’ expressions changed at once. This saber was the Azure Supreme Thearch’s weapon. The Azure Supreme Thearch used it for thousands of years. It contained all his realizations of the Heaven Daos, Quintessences, and Laws. Now, this saber was ranked second among the ten great divine weapons. It was second only to the Heavenly Thearch’s Divine Weapon.

Dao Nu slowly lifted his saber and pointed it at the Heavenly Kings. In a cool voice, he said, “Number Two of the Yun Clan, are you sure you want to fight me over a bastard like him? If you don’t let me kill this brat—not only would you be showing no regard to me, but even my master—the Azure Supreme Thearch—would be embarrassed. You should know how to deal with this.”

The hall was dead silent. It was so quiet that one would be able to hear a pin drop. Although Jiang Yi was standing behind Heavenly King Yun and the other Heavenly Kings, he felt pressed down by the aura of the saber. All his bones were cracking. Speaking aside, even moving an inch felt difficult for him.

This few-thousand-year-old Curmudgeon was really powerful!

Once again, Jiang Yi was humbled. He once used the mummy alone to fend himself against Dao Leng’s attack. The mummy only suffered a superficial wound that had already healed by now. For that reason, he felt no real fear towards Pseudo Thearch-Ranked martial artists. Now, however, he fully understood just how strong and terrifying Pseudo Thearch-Ranked martial artists could be. Dao Nu had not even dealt an attack, but Jiang Yi already felt like he was on the brink of death.

Jiang Yi also knew that he was feeling this because of the Heaven-Splitting Saber. This saber belonged to the Azure Supreme Thearch. For some reason, he felt a strange emotion in his heart. The Azure Supreme Thearch’s battle armor was already so strong. If he could find the remaining parts of the Fire Dragon Sword and its artifact spirit, how much stronger would the Fire Dragon Sword be?

At that moment, Jiang Yi had not even thought about exposing the secret of the Fire Dragon Sword. In fact, if he exposed it now, he would die even sooner. The thirty-six Heavenly Kings were obviously not of one mind. The voting process alone had shown him this.

Heavenly King Yun hesitated as if trying to measure the pros and cons of his actions. Would it be worth it to fight Dao Nu over one Jiang Yi?

Dao Nu had already made such extreme moves. He even presented the Azure Supreme Thearch’s saber. It was obvious that he was trying to show the Azure Supreme Thearch’s approval of his actions. Why else would Dao Nu dare to take this saber out?

If the thirty-six Heavenly Kings joined forces and if they used the Battle Formation that the Heavenly Thearch left behind, they did not need to fear the Azure Supreme Thearch. However, one also had to look at the situation. If they fought the Azure Supreme Thearch over such a small matter, it would not be worth it at all.

It would be too easy for the Azure Supreme Thearch to kill all of them. After all, they could not possibly stick together all the time. The Azure Supreme Thearch only needed to kill one of them for the Battle Formation to lose its power. Then, the Azure Supreme Thearch would be able to easily take over the Nine Yang Army.

The human race was going to meet its end. They could be wiped out by the Netherworld Race soon. Was it worth it to have such intense internal conflict? Neither side would want to see a full-blown civil war. That meant that one of them had to give way.

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

At that moment, they heard footsteps outside the hall. The footsteps were light and slow, but they rang clearly in everyone’s heads. What’s more, there was a strange rhythm to the footsteps. The moment they heard these footsteps, the mutual hostility in the hall dissipated.

“En?”

Dao Nu turned his head, focusing his wolf-like eyes on the corridor outside the hall. Heavenly King Yun and the others rejoiced at once. Jiang Yi turned around to look as well, and his soul spirit shook.

At the door stood a skinny, old man. He wore sandals on his feet and was dressed in a white robe. He had no hair on his head, but both of his eyebrows were so long that they stretched to his chest. This man’s gaze was very calm, but when Jiang Yi met his eyes, he felt like he could see the entire void; it was limitless.

Soul-spirit formidable martial artist!

Jiang Yi immediately knew that this man was a formidable martial artist trained in his soul spirit. What’s more, the cultivation level of his soul spirit was undoubtedly high. This was the scariest man he had ever seen. Just looking at this man made him feel like turning away and never looking back again.

The skinny, old man slowly walked towards them. Without any regard for anyone in the hall, he walked right towards the first seat and sat down. Then, he turned to scan the group before saying, “Dao Nu, what are you doing here? Are you trying to pick a fight?”

Dao Nu narrowed his eyes and glared at the bald, old man. Slowly, he said, “Boss Wei, I want to take someone away, but Number Two of the Yun Clan is not giving me any face. I have no choice but to threaten them with force. Boss Wei, be our judge. If you allow me to take this man away, Dao Nu will help the Nine Yang Army out of any trouble that they meet in the future.”

“Boss Wei?”

Jiang Yi nodded subtly. It looked like this was the legendary leader of the thirty-six Heavenly Kings, Heavenly King Wei, nicknamed ‘Devil May Cry’.

Heavenly King Wei fell silent. He frowned and closed his eyes, looking like an old sovereign meditating. Everyone at the scene fixed their eyes on him. Jiang Yi’s heart was once again in his throat. A full three minutes later, Heavenly King Wei finally opened his eyes and said, “I’m sorry, Dao Nu! I will not give you this face today. You… may leave now.”
