Rise of Humanity

After joining Huangting army, Lou Zhengshi’s expression was awfully gloomy. After explaining what happened, he said, “King Yi is really a formidable opponent, he managed to force me off with his unexpected and irregular attack patterns. Mu Xiantian had made the right decision to make him a commander,” With King Yi around, the Heaven Suppression Fortress is a tough nut to crack.”

Ten days, five defeats and five raids, not only did they fail to set up their camps, they had also lost almost every resource they had and suffered casualties, which was considered a great humiliation to someone as renowned as him!

Ting Daoji smiled, “Senior Martial Brother Lou, let him have all the intelligence he wants and there will be nothing he can do before the absolute power of our joined forces! Besides, I have brought along our Huangting Clan’s monarch weapon!”

Lou Zhengshi nodded, “True, with the bell here, we wouldn’t suffer many losses even if we are defeated.”

Hearing this negative statement, Ting Daoji frowned, “Why the sad face?”

“The Yu Lin Army was routed entirely, Senior Martial Brother Sui Qinghong had recruited a few million more soldiers but they are all amateurs.”

Lou Zhengshi sighed, “He himself, on the other hand, was still treating his injuries, which almost took his life. Senior Martial Brother Pan Ji also sent words that his navy had been defeated after being snuck up on by King Yi. A few days later, we will be welcoming more enemies from the Shield Wall Fortress and Heaven Riding Fortress. This will be a very tough fight.”

Ting Daoji had a scare and he shouted, “Them too?”

Lou Zhengshi nodded, “He had returned to the Imperial Star and is preparing to bring out the Panhu Clan’s monarch weapon but that would take him half a year or so. As long as we can hold ourselves for half a year …”

“Senior Martial Brother Lou, I think you are afraid of King Yi now! What you say right now will hurt our morale.”

Ting Daoji smiled, “My son, Fengcen had cultivated the Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils and by tomorrow, after baiting King Yi out, we will hand the responsibility to my son to kill him! Without King Yi, the Heaven Suppression Fortress will lose its backbone!”

Lou Zhengshi sighed, “I certainly hope so, but right now, I’m not even sure that Fengcen could kill him now.”

Full of confident and proudness, Ting Fengcen smiled, “Senior Martial Uncle Lou, leave everything to me!”

A hopeful Lou Zhengshi replied with a laugh, “Then I will be awaiting for the wonderful show you are going to present to us tomorrow! If you kill King Yi, you will be the one contributing the most and you will be rewarded richly!”

The happy Ting Fengcen shouted right away, “Be prepared then!”

Ting Daoji added, “Then we will set up the camps tonight. Tomorrow, we will have a True Deity challenge King Yi to a duel, even if he does not accept the challenge, my son will be able to kill him if he shows up!”

Lou Zhengshi nodded and the army immediately rushed towards the fortress and set up the camps quickly. Throughout the night, Lou Zhengshi stayed up with a worried heart, fearing Zhong Yue would raid them at night again, but that did not happen.

On the second day, Lou Zhengshi picked out the most outstanding True Deity from his army and said, “Ziyu, go and challenge King Yi. Worry not, even if you are defeated, you will still be rewarded.”

That True Deity Ziyu immediately mounted his water dragon beast and charged towards the fortress with his spear in his hands.

As the beast arrived before the fortress, Ziyu raised his head and shouted, “Listen up!”

An arrow flew out from the top of the walls, pierced through his head, his body fell off from the water dragon beast and a soul flew right back into the Heavenly River Navy Fleet’s Heavens.

The beast shivered right away and cowarded around, quickly fleeing back into the camps.

Angered and surprised, Lou Zhengshi shouted, “Darn King Yi! Without even saying a word, he killed my favourite general! What now!”

Ting Daoji said, “How about we send another True Deity?”

With a nod, Lou Zhengshi proposed, “That was one of my most favourite general. Brother Daoji, could you send someone capable enough for this job from your army?”

Ting Daoji hesitated but he quickly said to an elder, “Daofeng, your daughter Fengxi is also a True Deity. On top of that, she is a lady and King Yi won’t kill her without saying a word I assume. Besides, as a lady, if King Yi does not accept her challenge, it would make him a coward.”

Ting Daofeng nodded, he then sent his daughter out and added, “When you go out, explain your purpose before getting close to the fortress, I fear that they will attack without a word again.”

With a nod, Ting Fengxi got up her mount, which was a massive hydra and she stood at the middle head of the nine headed hydra.

The hydra slithered towards the fortress and the beautiful and snowy white skin Ting Fengxi said loudly, “King Yi, I’ve always heard of how powerful you are and that you are the number one in the Board of the Future Monarch. As a True Deity, I wish to challenge you, do you accept?

The hydra continued moving forward under the control of its master and Ting Fengxi shouted again, “King Yi, are you afraid of a lady?”

Arrows rained down from the walls and without able to say another word, Ting Fengxi was killed right away, arrows nailed onto her yet the hydra remain unscathed.

On the wall, a divine general reached his head out and shouted, “Our lord’s wives said no lady is to try to hook up with our lord! Any lady who dares to hook up with our master will be shot dead! Go, bring a man here if you want a challenge!”

Ting Daoji, Ting Daofeng and Lou Zhengshi all became infuriated right away.

An elder quickly said, “They say to change to a male challenger, what if we send a male out?”

With grin, Lou Zhengshi said, “Then they will say that King Yi will not allow any male to get near his wives and that he will kill them all!”

The elder then stuttered, “He can’t be that shameless, can he?”

Angered by his question, Lou Zhengshi shouted, “You can try if you don’t believe me!”

Ting Daoji immediately sent a male True Deity out to challenge King Yi again, only to see the god’s mount returning alone as he was killed just like the duo before him.

“Our lord says that this brat is too handsome and he is afraid that this brat will try to hook up with our madams. He also said that you should send an ugly one!”

“He has no honour!” shouted the angry Ting Daoji and the others.

Lou Zhengshi smirked, “And he can be even more shameless than you think! If you sent an ugly one, he will say that all ugly ones should be killed! He will have all kinds of reasons!”

Ting Fengcen, on the other hand bowed, “There is no need to send anyone anymore! I will go challenge him myself! Their arrows will have no effect on me! After all, I am a Deity Emperor!”

Ting Daoji and the others exchanged a glance before nodding silently and Lou Zhengshi said, “I will plant a protective spell in your psyche ocean, if King Yi decides to play dirty again, this spell will be able to protect you!”

With a flick of his mind, his psyche turned into a Heavenly River and it gushed right into Ting Fengcen’s forehead.

Ting Daoji also said, “I will to plant a seal too!”

After that, the other elders and generals of the Heavenly River Navy Fleet also planted their own respective defensive spells and seals into Ting Fengcen’s forehead and laughed, “With that, you will not be killed for sure!”

Ting Fengcen immediately started walking out and he smiled, “With all these spells and seals, King Yi is dead for sure! Men, bring me my mount!”

A giant white elephant with three heads was brought up and it was also a Deity Emperor level mount.

Ting Fengcen started moving towards the fortress and he shouted, “King Yim you are after all, the first in the Board of the Future Monarch and it is quite humiliating if you are challenged by a True Deity. Now, I, Ting Fengcen, a Deity Emperor wishes to challenge you, will you accept? I did not bring any weapons with me so that we can have a fair and square battle!”

In the fortress, after hearing this voice, Yin Bokang smirked right away, “A Deity Emperor challenging a True Deity and he says this is fair? Why don’t this Imperial Emperor here challenge you, a mere Deity Emperor?”

Hearing this, Ting Fengcen’s expression changed right away.

Zhong Yue looked out and after finding out who was challenging him, he was stunned for a second and he smiled, “It’s him.”

In his psyche ocean, Xin Huo shouted, “That little brat that cultivated Fuxi Celestial Race’s [Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils]! This darn brat! Clearly he is trying to bait you out and kill you with his half mastered technique!”

Zhong Yue smiled, “It should be, those True Deities sent out to challenge me probably came with the same motive.”

Xin Huo replied, “The [Three Eyes Heavenly Pupils] is extremely dangerous. He may have only partially mastered it but it is still powerful.”

Zhong Yue’s heart moved and he asked, “Compared to you?”

“He is trash.” said the little flame proudly, “My technique was directly drilled into my brain by Monarch Xi Hao himself, it is perfect in every aspect. If I use it through your body, it would be as strong as Monarch Xi Hao using it while at the True Deity level!”

Hearing this, Zhong Yue’s worry was erased and he immediately stood up, “If he wishes to challenge me, I will give him the challenge he very much desired!”

Meanwhile, something tingled Ting Daoji, Lou Zhengshi and the others and they immediately noticed the moving luxurious looking banners in the Heavenly Suppression Fortress, which banners belonged only to the commander!

“King Yi is moving!:

Lou Zhengshi could not held back his excitement and he clenched and waved his fist, “Crown Prince Fengcen had shown us a path to success! I will report this to the Heavenly Monarch and ensure His Majesty rewards him greatly! Brother Daoji, today, your son had bathed your race in honour and glory!”

On the fortress walls, Zhong Yue slowly ascended the stairs and revealed himself in plain sight.

Happiness struck Ting Fengcen right away and with his forehead split apart, the divine third eye emerged but at the same time, the same thing happened to Zhong Yue; both had the divine third eye and the same art!

As soon as the eyes met, eye-blinding light flashed across the field and six divine light pillars crossed!

Zhong Yue’s sleeves waved vigorously along with the impact.

Meanwhile, the elephant Ting Fengcen rode on turned around, carried him back to the camps and Ting Daoji and the others quickly approached him, only to find him sitting on the back of the elephant, looking alive and lively.
