Chapter 3207: Bearing The Consequences Alone
A smile slowly spread across Tian Ci's lips as he looked at Lu Yin. "Look at these people from another megaverse. They think that they can hide. It's absurd, isn't it? We are the Boundary Guardians, and we are too familiar with this megaverse. Hide? Where can they hide?"
"Is this how you expel people?" Lu Yin's killing intent subsided, and his expression became unnervingly calm.
Tian Ci smiled at Lu Yin, though his eyes narrowed. "It didn't have to be like this. The Lost Clan had so many people, so wiping all of them out wasn't something we particularly desired. However, with Tian Fa dead, someone has to pay the price. Since it was the Lost Clan's fault, we'll kill all of them so that they can accompany Tian Fa in death.
"Humans always believe themselves to be clever, when they're really just fools. While I am also human, I'm well aware of our species’ weaknesses. Killing Tian Fa was your biggest mistake, and this is only the beginning of the consequences. Soon, you'll see the second, third, and fourth hidden locations wiped out.
“Dao Monarch Lu, what are you going to do?"
This was blackmail. Tian Ci was trying to force Lu Yin into attacking so that the Boundary Guardians would have a justified reason to destroy the Heavens Sect.
Lu Yin did not respond, and he instead simply stared at Tian Ci. This man’s death was already guaranteed, but how? As soon as Lu Yin did anything, both Tian En and Tian Feng would immediately appear. It would be very difficult for the Heavens Sect to fight against three Ortusers at the same time, and that was not even considering Aeternus, who was waiting in the wings. The final results were impossible to predict.
Over the years, Lu Yin rarely started wars when he did not see at least a seventy percent chance of victory. He seldom took risks when it came to large-scale conflicts. Unfortunately, at this moment, he was being backed into a corner.
Tian Ci sneered and waved his hand again, tearing the void open in another place. Lu Yin's expression changed, and he saw another city. This one was bustling with members of the Lost Clan. Many of them noticed Lu Yin, Tian Ci, and the Second Scourge through the spatial tear.
"This is the second one." Tian Ci's voice rang across the land.Far away, at the top of the black Mother Tree, True G.o.d closed his eyes. Humanity’s greatest weakness was their emotional nature. If Yong Heng were placed in Lu Yin’s position, the Lost Clan would be instantly abandoned to protect the Heavens Sect. After that, he would take his time and plan slowly. The Heavens Sect had so many human powerhouses at the moment that they could handle any crisis, given enough time. In particular, when Lu Yin became a Progenitor, or when he reached an even higher level of cultivation, who in the entire megaverse would be his opponent?
True G.o.d already knew that Lu Yin would not wait. That was human nature; they were driven by their emotions. They felt things so strongly that their feelings hindered progress and prevented people from making the right choices.
Tian Ci was also human, and he was simply all too familiar with human nature.
Slowly, one deliberate step at a time, Tian Ci walked towards the spatial tear. He was in no hurry, as he wanted to give Lu Yin time to struggle. The more that Lu Yin struggled, the more painful the results would be. If the Lost Clan was abandoned, then Lu Yin would lose the support of the Sixverse a.s.sociation. His t.i.tles, such as Dao Monarch of the Heavens Sect and leader of the Sixverse a.s.sociation, would mean nothing. However, if Lu Yin refused to abandon the people, then it would be time for war. While the Heavens Sect had not yet returned to the same level of power that it had once enjoyed, they were getting close, and that could not be allowed.
Tian Ci’s megaverse had paid an unbelievable price to gain entry to this megaverse. How could they allow the Heavens Sect to rise up again?
Tian Ci’s civilization were the true masters of this megaverse’s humanity.
Far away, someone entered the destroyed city of the Lost Clan. They saw the sea of corpses and Shan Fangyi’s corpse hanging in the sky. A heart-wrenching scream echoed out. "Xiao Fang-"
It was Xu Wuji. He was one of the few individuals who had known of Shan Fangyi's location. He had met her on several occasions, as they had already gained the Lost Clan's permission to be together.
Xu Wuji had never expected his last time seeing Shan Fangyi to be their final goodbye.
He rushed towards her.
Tian Ci frowned. "A mere ant wants to destroy my masterpiece?"
With that, he waved a hand, and a blast of wind sent Xu Wuji flying back.
The man slammed into the ground, thrown by the wind. He spat out blood, but still glared at Tian Ci with undimmed fury. "It was you? You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"
He unleashed his voidforce energy to release a fierce attack at Tian Ci.
The man’s expression turned cold. "You are seeking death."
Suddenly, he turned around, only to see a card approaching him from behind.
Tian Ci did not even move as he was sucked into that card.
The card belonged to Shan Zheng, and Xu Wuji leaped into it.
Lu Yin's heart dropped. This was not good.
Before his thoughts could process any further, the card cracked. Tian Ci emerged, holding both Shan Zheng and Xu Wuji by their heads. He looked over at Lu Yin. "Dao Monarch Lu, here we have one person from the Lost Clan who deserves death, and one person from your Sixverse a.s.sociation who dared tp attack me. Do you think I should kill them, or not?" R?N∅?Εṣ
Shan Zheng and Xu Wuji were both peak powerhouses, and Shan Zheng was even a sequence powerhouse. Even so, the two had been easily and instantly crushed by Tian Ci. The man’s strength far surpa.s.sed them both, and it had been impossible for them to fight back.
Shan Zheng's card had already been shattered, and Xu Wuji's head had an open fracture. Blood streamed down the man’s forehead, and his consciousness was quickly fading. "Xiao Fang... Xiao… Xiao Fang…"
Tian Ci's expression was extremely arrogant as he asked Lu Yin the question. The dignified Dao Monarch of the Heavens Sect was at the mercy of another. Lu Yin had already become a figurehead for humanity in the megaverse, and shattering that figurehead would deal a second major blow to humanity.
The Heavens Sect had been destroyed once before, and if it was destroyed a second time, there would be no chance for it to rise a third time.
"Release them," Lu Yin quietly ordered. Only a few times in the past had he ever wanted to kill someone so badly. Previously, he had felt the same about Nightking Zhenwu, Shao Yin, and w.a.n.g Fan. Tian Ci had just made it onto that list.
Tian Ci sneered. "Tell me, how did Tian Fa die?"
Lu Yin clenched his fists.
From the First Scourge, Di Qiong, Arrow G.o.d, and the others were able to see what was happening. The First and Second Scourges were adjacent, and without the interference of divine energy, there was no problem for them to see what was happening in the other Scourge.
The Boundary Guardians were existences that not even the Three Pillars and Six Skies fully understood. Were all of them Ortusers?
Ancient G.o.d watched on calmly. The Boundary Guardians’ appearance marked the beginning of the third Divine Commandment.
w.a.n.g Xiaoyu dropped her eyes to look at a lake of divine energy.
In the depths of that lake, Hui Wu looked up. He seemed to meet the woman’s gaze.
Within the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, the Great Sovereign frowned.
In the Second Scourge, Lu Yin slowly relaxed his hands. "Do you understand me?"
Tian Ci sounded as though he admired Lu Yin. "Of course, I understand you. I have to admit, you are truly extraordinary, standing out from all the other humans in this megaverse."
Lu Yin stared at Tian Ci, and slowly asked, "I meant, do you understand my personality?"
Tian Ci raised an eyebrow, but said nothing.
Lu Yin’s voice turned glacial. "Whoever I want dead, never survives. Not. One."
"Are you threatening me?" Tian Ci mocked. He was an Ortuser, as well as a Boundary Guardian.
Before Lu Yin could reply, light spread across the Scourge, and Tian En appeared. "Tian Ci, what are you doing?"
Tian Ci's expression remained unchanged. "Carrying out my duty."
"Stop. Our duty is to expel creatures which do not belong to this megaverse, not to wage war on humanity," Tian En stated softly.
Tian Ci scoffed. "Wage war? What qualifies them to wage war with us? Lu Yuan?"
"Tian Ci-"
"Tian En, do you believe that humanity can still be saved?" Tian Ci interrupted before Tian En could finish speaking.
The b.u.t.terfly's wings fluttered. "What do you mean?"
Tian Ci spat, "Human nature never changes. In the past, Tai Chu grew arrogant and reckless. He allowed the astral beasts to be enslaved and ignored us. He got what he deserved! We should have reshaped that era, but instead, we hesitated. That allowed the Origin Universe to catch its breath. Now look at what the Heavens Sect has become.
"They take in creatures from other megaverses, disrespect us, and have made a mockery of Tian Fa, even causing his death. All of this is on humanity.
"They have a vile nature and resist enlightenment. They are arrogant! If things are allowed to continue, they will destroy this entire megaverse. I don't want to see another Tai Chu appear.
"You're too kind, and you don't realize that humans will only take advantage of your kindness. Ask Dao Monarch Lu here if he cares about you. Has he ever understood your kindness?"
"Exactly." A short distance away, an oval-shaped stone appeared. This was the last of the Boundary Guardians, a being named Tian Feng. They served as heaven’s seal.
Tian Feng agreed with Tian Ci. "Human’s have a vile nature. I've always wanted to seal all the humans of this megaverse away, trapping them forever as punishment, but I've never had the opportunity. Tian Ci, this is the time."
Tian En sighed. "Isn't that too cruel?"
Tian Ci snapped back, "If you think that’s cruel, then just stay out of it! Look at how many wars the humans of this megaverse have started. What do you think, Yong Heng?"
From very far away, True G.o.d’s answer came from atop the black Mother Tree. "Humans cannot be subdued."
Tian Feng sneered. "Exactly. They cannot be tamed."
Tian Ci turned back to Tian En. "The two of us can handle this, fulfilling our duty as Boundary Guardians. You can resume your own duty and stay put."
"Enough with the noise." A soft voice filled the air.
Tian Ci and everyone else turned towards the voice. It came from the bottom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Realm, which was where the Great Sovereign sat.
She slowly turned around so that she could look at the Second Scourge, and her eyes fell upon Lu Yin. "Child of the Lu family, what are you waiting for? Is it that, the more you obtain, the more you're afraid to lose? Or have you already grown fearful? You intend to simply allow these few fools to shout? They’re nothing more than beasts."
Tian Ci glared at the Great Sovereign. "Tai Hong, your nature is even worse than the rest of your kind. Such disrespectful words will not lead you to a good end."
Tian Feng also threatened the woman. "I wanted to seal her long ago. If not for the fact that Tai Chu's disciple accidentally ran into her, she would not have survived this long. Still, that doesn't matter. That disciple died in her stead, which was punishment enough."
Tian En sighed. "Humans may resist enlightenment and have vile natures, but they are still a species that belongs to this megaverse. Let's try to leave some of them alive."
From what was being said, it sounded like, regardless of whether Yin tried to save the Lost Clan, the Boundary Guardians would eventually take action against the Heavens Sect.
Tian Ci had run out of patience. Even if Lu Yin decided to abandon the Lost Clan, the man still intended to attack the Heavens Sect and completely erase all traces of human legacy from the megaverse.
Lu Yin looked up and let out a long breath. "You crazy woman, since when were you able to tell me what to do?"
The Great Sovereign snorted coldly.
"While these beasts might be noisy, they do have a point. Is human nature so vile?" Lu Yin dropped his head and grinned. "It’s true, it's quite nasty. If you have the ability, then come and take care of it!
"If the heavens won't destroy me, then I'll destroy the heavens! Hear me, Heavens Sect! As your Dao Monarch, I order the Boundary Guardians to be killed! All resulting karma and all consequences of this will be borne by me, Lu Yin, alone!
"Let's show them how our vile species sharpens our fangs and tears all of our enemies apart!"
