Supreme Uprising

Chapter 1083: Unruly

“Luo Yunyang wants to take part in the competition for the position of the Human Ruler. Ha ha! What an ignorant fool! Does he really think that the position of the Human Ruler is something he can covet?” In the center of Sky Star City, a young man spoke with a look of disdain.

The young man’s cultivation had reached the fourth level of the Heavenly Venerate. Although his cultivation wasn’t too high compared to Luo Yunyang’s, he was a member of the six most powerful families in Tianding Realm.

He wasn’t a son of the first wife, as the families were very meticulous about nurturing the sons of their first wives.

The sons of the first wives that had the cultivation of a Yuan Venerate already had a status that was much higher than his.

However, in Sky Star City and the region within the Vast Star Great Cosmos, he represented the tremendous force of Tianding Realm, which would make anyone shudder in fear.

His words and actions were enough to determine the life and death of the entire Sky Star City.

He was drowning in delight about having such great authority. After all, he had never thought that he would be entrusted with an important task by his family.

“Ninth Brother, I think Luo Yunyang is simply stalling for some time by fighting for the position of the Human Ruler,” a thin and somewhat shrewd man said with mirth. “He is afraid the old Patriarch of Hong Meng Sacred Hall is going to cause him trouble.”

“That patriarch naturally would not dare to disobey the order of the Divine Ancestor as long as Luo Yunyang competes for the position of the Human Ruler.”

A smile emerged on the face of the young man as soon as the man spoke. He patted the scrawny man and said, “Old Thirteen, you are still a smart man!”

In big aristocratic families, bastards like them would be ranked according to their birth date. However, their ranking was not in line with the core disciples of the family.

This sort of ranking left a bad taste in their mouths, as they were reluctant to accept it. However, no one dared to say anything on the surface.

They would also adopt this ranking between themselves.

“Ninth Brother, we don’t have to pay any attention to this.” The scrawny young man smiled and said, “I believe Lord Long Fantian will not pay much attention to this matter either.”

The people present looked respectful when Long Fantian was mentioned, not just because of Long Fantian’s capability but also because they knew clearly that Lord Long Fantian would soon become the Human Ruler.

It could even be said that Long Fantian was about to rule over the 36 Great Cosmoses.

These people did not harbor much hope in terms of their cultivation. Hence, they needed to please Long Fantian if they wanted to enjoy their lives more.

“Is the King-Grade Sky Star Wood ready?” the young man addressed as Ninth Brother said icily.

A middle-aged man who had been smiling while standing on one side suddenly stiffened up.

He said fearfully, “Ninth Young Master, the King-Grade Sky Star Wood is the foundation of all Sky Star Wood. The entire Sky Star Wood in Sky Star City will gradually disappear if it is cut down.”

“Those artisans would not cut anything even if one told them to do so!”

The young man addressed as Ninth Brother sneered, “Don’t you have another solution if the artisans are unwilling to cut it down?”

“Tell those vile creatures that I gave this command. If they dare to delay my event, I will make sure they pay with their lives and their families’ lives, let alone with that stupid Sky Star Wood!”

He sounded cold and emotionless. However, just as the middle-aged man started feeling afraid, he heard the Ninth Prince say more sinister words. “Listen carefully. You will also be buried with them when I take their lives.”

“No one can delay the enthronement ceremony of the Human Ruler. I want to build the most magnificent throne for Lord Human Ruler with the most gorgeous King-Grade Sky Star Wood.”

The middle-aged man’s face trembled as he said respectfully, “I have taken note of the Ninth Young Master’s instructions. Please rest assured that I will complete this task within the time you gave me.”

“Good. you can get the slave-hunting team to catch more slaves if there is a shortage of manpower. I don’t believe there’s a shortage of martialists in the whole Sky Star City!” the Ninth Young Master snorted coldly in arrogance.

Bang!

As he was speaking, an orb behind him suddenly broke apart. The Ninth Young Master immediately stiffened when he saw that, as he knew very well what this orb was.

Yuan Venerate Xing Mie was being suppressed in the North Sea, and this treasure orb was linked to the array formation suppressing him. The treasure orb would break immediately if the array formation was attacked.

“Who would dare to rescue Yuan Venerate Xing Mie on my watch? Do they really think nothing of the Dongfang Family?”

The Ninth Young Master roared ferociously. However, while he was doing so, a piece of jade on his body shattered.

The broken jade piece scared him all of a sudden, as it had been given to him by the head of his family when he’d left Tianding Realm.

The jade piece had only one function, and that was to prompt him to leave immediately when there was looming danger…

Danger? How could he be in danger when he was in the 36 Great Cosmoses? How could he be in danger in a realm full of mortals whose fate he controlled and who could be slaughtered if he wished?

He suddenly felt that these thoughts were ridiculous. However, right at that moment, someone shouted. “Who dares to enter the Dongfang Family’s territory? Do you have a death wish?”

As soon as these words were said, a surge of powerful force enveloped the space surrounding them.

Although the Ninth Young Master’s cultivation wasn’t high, he was still a bastard of his family and was considered well-informed. Thus, he was able to sense a dozen auras with a moment’s effort.

All these auras belonged to Yuan Venerates.

Although they were all Taishi Yuan Venerates, this many Taishi Yuan Venerates already exceeded the power of the three other Taishi Yuan Venerates he had brought over.

He even felt that the leader of this group of Taishi Yuan Venerates was more powerful than the leader of his bodyguards.

“All you bandits are running amok in the Vast Star Great Cosmos. We were ordered by the Middle Hall Master to capture you all. We will kill you without pardon if you dare to resist!” The faint voice sounded incomparably calm, but the more calming it sounded, the eerier it felt.

The Ninth Young Master did not dare speak now because of the warning of the jade piece given to him by his family. However, Yuan Venerate Green Leaf, the one with the strongest cultivation base among the three Yuan Venerates that followed him, sneered, “Just the few of you are talking about killing us? Let me tell you something. You better scram!”

“Otherwise, that bullsh*t Middle Hall Master of yours will not be able to bear the anger of the Dongfang Family, let alone the rest of you!”

Yuan Venerate Green Leaf’s words calmed the Ninth Young Master almost immediately. This sudden situation had startled him so much that he had even forgotten about the powerful supporters behind him.

“You are courting death!” the first person that had spoken said again icily before a massive white crane appeared in the void. The white crane shrouded the sky, while its wings looked like two gigantic divine swords.

The Ninth Young Master felt as though the void around him had been enveloped as the massive wings moved in the void. Even people like Yuan Venerate Green Leaf and the others, who were also in the void, found it hard to move as well.

A dazzling luster illuminated for a split moment and Yuan Venerate Green Leaf’s body was severed into half. The two other Yuan Venerates that followed behind Yuan Venerate Green Leaf were about to take action. However, several light shadows had already enveloped them almost at the same time.

Although they were all Taishi Yuan Venerates, there were still stronger and weaker Taishi Yuan Venerates. The gap in cultivation and sometimes in battle experience would cause one side to be suppressed completely by the other.

Thus, the two Yuan Venerates were no match for those Yuan Venerates, who were already much stronger than Yuan Venerate Green Leaf, who was their leader.

One of the Yuan Venerates asked in fear while being suppressed, “Aren’t you afraid that Tianding Realm will not agree to let you all behave with such disorder?”

“Disorder? Are we as disorderly as you guys? Have you calculated how many sects you have destroyed after you people came to the 36 Great Cosmoses?”

The person that spoke was Yuan Venerate Xing Mie. A raging fire was burning in his eyes. He would never forget about his sect, his friends, and relatives, who had been turned into ashes by the three people in front of him.

They had been high and lofty at the time, just like gods above the nine skies.

The reason these people had kept him alive was not because they were kind but because they wanted to use the power of the North Sea to obliterate his spirit consciousness and as a result turn him into a puppet when the right time came.

He had thought that his whole life was over and had not expected to be rescued by the people of Hong Meng Sacred Hall. Hence, he would not lose or give up such an opportunity for revenge.

Yuan Venerate Xing Mie even ignored the injury on his body as he moved frantically toward the Yuan Venerate whose entire body was shrouded by purple light. Although he knew that his attack would not break the Yuan Venerate’s defense for the time being, he had to make his move.

His hatred for them was all the motive he needed.

In a short moment, the three Taishi Yuan Venerates had already been suppressed and annihilated. Although the Ninth Young Master wanted to leave, he could only step out in peace.

“My family’s patriarch is a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate. Let me go and I will not pursue this matter in the future.”

He would not pursue the matter himself, but the Dongfang Family would certainly do so.

The calm-looking Yuan Venerate White Crane glanced at the Ninth Young Master and said coldly, “You still hope to go back? How could the ghosts of Sky Star City let you go? Why would the martialists of the sects you slaughtered let you off? You killed innocent people in Sky Star City! How can we let you go?”

“You… You are so unruly. Are you trying to rage war against the Tianding Realm?” the Ninth Prince said fearfully. His voice trembled in fear as he put up his final struggle.

“We don’t intend to go to war against Tianding Realm yet. We are just punishing criminals who entered the 36 Great Cosmoses on their own and behaved arbitrarily!” Yuan Venerate White Crane scoffed in disdain.
