Chapter 858: Preselling Third Prince Mu
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Um…” Mu Suge hesitated. After all, paying a ransom for hundreds of thousands of gods wasn’t cheap, in addition to the payment to make the wildmen yield, the amount of money to be taken out would be more than his expectations!
For him to pull out such a large amount of wealth all of a sudden was still a big pain to him.
He was the third prince of Xian Tian Palace and was a fond son to Imperial Emperor Xian Tian. However, he was just the third son, even with his eldest brother’s death at an early age, there was still a second elder brother above him.
He and the second prince, Mu Suwu, were not on good terms. If he could just save Fu Shu while at the same time, make the ancient universe’s wild human barbarians yield under the Xian Tian Palace, it would turn into a great chance for him to overcome his second brother’s suppressions, moreover, take the upper hand in their battle of kingship!
“The wealth and money needed for it, I can pull them out of my pockets; to let the barbarians be under Mister Yi’s lead, I am also more than assured. But Mister, can you help to fulfill a little request of mine?”
Mu Suge gritted his teeth and said, “To be frank, little sister Mu Qingxuan has been forcing me to marry a female Juling Creator. Mister, your wisdom is above mine, can you help me convince my brother, Mu Suwu, to marry a female Juling Creator instead?”
Upon hearing this, Zhong Yue’s face took on a forced smile, “Your Highness, it is a good thing to tie a marriage with the Juling Clan, with their support, wouldn’t time be the only issue to your rise to the throne? To let Prince Suwu marry a female Juling Creator, is Your Highness giving up the throne?”
Mu Suge laughed, “Mister, my father is the innate god, he lives as long as this universe lives. He will be long sitting on the throne of Heavenly Monarch, I don’t dare place my eyes on his throne.”
Zhong Yue shook, “Your Highness, you’ve underestimated His Majesty. Although your father eyed the throne a lot, it is and will not be his end destination. His Majesty’s destination is The Impossible World. When he leaves, the throne will be one of yours to claim, it isn’t impossible to have the family ruling the universe.”
Mu Suge’s eyes brightened up, “To rule the universe?”
“If His Majesty really enters The Impossible World, with his backing, ruling the universe will be a certainty” Zhong Yue answered with deep meaning behind his words.
Mu Suge’s breath hastened, he suddenly bowed almost to the ground and said, “Mister is really a Mister! Your words have enlightened me. The Juling Clan’s female Creator, I will marry one! The wild human barbarians of the ancient universe, I will make them yield, no matter the cost!”
Zhong Yue smiled, “They are hard to find, it’s still uncertain if we can make them yield. Your Highness, it should be the Golden Crow’s territory a little further ahead.”
“The Jinwu Clan?” Mu Suge’s heart sterned, he said solemnly, “Mister, is this Jinwu Clan the Golden Crow monarch race of the ancient universe?”
Zhong Yue nodded, “It’s them.”
Other than the 24 monarch races of the Zi Wei Galaxy, the ancient universe have their own monarch races too. Among them, the Jinwu Clan was one of them. All from this monarch race were the Golden Crows, powerful beings from birth and their oldest ancestor was an Innate Golden Crow who was known as the Great Monarch Jin Wu!
However, as one of the few eldest and most powerful monarchs, Great Monarch Jin Wu did not choose to settle down in the Zi Wei Galaxy due to him being one of the ultraconservatives that despise the very peace embraced by the demons and celestials in the Zi Wei Galaxy.
As a celestial, the innate celestial monarch hated the demons more than anything else. Thus, he has chosen to root his home in the ancient universe and with him, comes the Jinwu Clan.
In time, there were inevitably some of the Jinwu Clansmen that would leave for the outside world. Some went to the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds and some the Zi Wei Galaxy. Collectively as a whole, the Jinwu Clan could be said to be one of the great and powerful clans.
But the Golden Crows wasn’t king in the ancient universe, there were still some other monarch races that stood on par with their strength. Furthermore, the ancient universe had many mysteries clouding its true power, no one knew exactly how many great presences were hiding in it, leading to the rumors of it having greater forces than the Zi Wei Galaxy.
Some even said that there were the old and undying beings of the ancient period living a hermit life in the ancient universe, which was why the Great Monarch Jin Wu still couldn’t have brought the whole ancient universe under his rule.
In truth, Zhong Yue himself didn’t have any knowledge of what was it like exactly in the ancient universe; however, before he came, he asked Nuxi regarding the ancient universe’s general situation, and in addition to the ancient universe’s wild human barbarians that were constantly talking to him, he was able to pinpoint the Jinwu Clan’s territory easily.
The Jinwu Clan’s sacred land was known as the Valley of Tang, it was an innate sacred land as well as the birthplace of an incredibly strong sun.
Zhong Yue and Mu Suge looked afar and saw billions of suns linking together in a piece and hovered above the continent. On the continent, there was a colossal Fu Sang Divine Tree that towered in the center of the continent, it was so huge that it felt like a Heavens itself. It was also the center to which the suns were orbiting around, forming a picturesque scene.
Rumors had it that Great Monarch Jin Wu was born on this gigantic Fu Sang Divine Tree in the Valley of Tang, he was an innate god born by the natural wonders of the ancient universe.
Then, Mu Suge and Zhong Yue moved for the Valley of Tang. Suddenly, Mu Suge said, “Mister, I heard that there is also another valley that stands as the opposite of the Valley of Tang. It is the valley where the suns fell and the place of sunsets; an innate sacred land as well, but one that belonged to the demons. There, an innate demon god rose and he was the grand ancestor to Realm Monarch Bo Luo.”
Zhong Yue nodded, “I’ve heard of him before, his name is Bo Xun.”
Soon after, they had arrived at the Valley of Tang. As one of the eldest clans, the Jinwu Clan ruled millions of races under their name. The Valley of Tang was a valley of peace and prosperity. There were all kinds of races living in the Divine City of Valley Tang, but they were mostly just celestials with a minority of demon slaves.
The Divine City of Valley Tang was surrounded by huge and lofty walls made from the cores of suns, but it wasn’t hot at all inside of the city. This wasn’t just the sacred land to the Jinwu Clan, it was also the sacred land to the many celestial races living under the Golden Crows.
In the city, other than those of the Golden Crow’s faction, there were also merchants that came to do business and races that had good ties with the Jinwu Clan visiting the city.
One could say that the Valley of Tang gathered people from all walks of life; it was the best place to gather intelligence here.
The city gates of the Divine City of Valley Tang was long opened, a huge scale was hovering above it, shining on everyone that enters and exits the city.
In the reflections on the scale, everyone’s secrets were clearly exposed to it; no demon could slip through its inspection and sneak into the city.
Among those who came, there were often celestials that had demon gods as their slaves and mounts. And when the scale mirror shone on the demon gods and perceived their existence, there would be Golden Crow gods that came forward and recorded everything in a strict and detailed manner.
“Your Highness, you have 500 thousand Tiger Jiao Cavalry in your Yuan Shen secret realms, there are many demons among them, right?”
Zhong Yue looked at the Golden Crow scale and frowned, “This is a scale taken down from Great Monarch Jin Wu’s toes, you won’t be able to hide them from it.”
Mu Suge smiled, “Mister, have no worries. My father has placed seals in my Yuan Shen secret realms, even Great Monarch Jin Wu cannot see through the secrets in my Yuan Shen secret realms.”
As the blood of Imperial Emperor Xian Tian’s celestial lord flows in his veins, he wasn’t a target to the scale; as long as the demon gods in his Yuan Shen secret realms weren’t exposed, he would be alright.
And although Zhong Yue cultivated the demonic cultivation base, he was an authentic celestial; thus naturally, he was fine too.
Zhong Yue smiled and said, “Here, there is a slave market and a gladiator arena. The slaves are usually demon Qi Practitioners and also the demon gods. Whenever a celestial is receiving a guest and or for any reason at all, wanted to have a feast, they would buy these demon slaves and slaughter them for their meat and inner cores. On the other hand, the gladiator arena is the best entertainment here, the celestials would often throw their demon slaves into the arena and bet on them for money.”
Mu Suge was dumbfounded, he shook his head, “How brutal.”
Of course, Zhong Yue himself had never been here and so everything he was saying was just words he heard from Fu Li. He smiled and answered Mu Suge, “If the human barbarians are to sell your subordinate demon gods, this is the best place to come. Your Highness, let’s head for the slave market now, they might already be transported here and ready to be sold by the humans.”
Mu Suge’s face darkened, he said worryingly, “We have to be quick, I am worried my subordinates will expose my locations to the others.”
The two asked around for the slave market and rushed toward it. All of a sudden, there was a huge clamor happening in front of them, a voice was heard shouting loudly, “Happening now in the slave market! Fu Li of the Star Torrent Fortress is preselling the third son of the Zi Wei Galaxy’s Mu Xiantian! Those with the highest bid will have him!”
“Mu Xiantian of the Zi Wei Galaxy? That sissy comes from the ancient universe but he is the one and only scum of our kind! I now bid on his third son, I will castrate that little scum and make him my slave!’
“Sissy’s third son? Good, good, no one fights with me for his head!”
“This Mu Xiantian is the biggest traitor to all of the innate gods, his son is mine to torture!”
“What? Mu Xiantian still has the audacity to send his son back here?”
…
Mu Suge’s face grew dark and gloomy, his hands were shivering in the sleeves while Zhong Yue asked puzzlingly, “Your Highness, what has His Majesty done in the past? Why is his reputation in the ancient universe this bad?”
“I too, wonder.” Mu Suge mumbled.
Suddenly, Zhong Yue smiled, “The crowd is agitated now, perhaps it is unwise for Your Highness to reveal your identity. Your Highness, I plead you to disguise yourself as one of my followers and allow me to do the talking.”
Mu Suge heaved a breath, he covered his face with his sleeves and when he lowered his hands again, he was a completely different person. From a young and mighty prince to a dying old man with a face crawling with wrinkles.
He stood behind Zhong Yue and acted like a follower, an old slave.
Zhong Yue moved forward casually, he pushed the people in front of him to the side and laughed outwardly, “Mu Xiantian’s third prince? He is mine! Human Fu Li, how much does he weigh?”
Thanks to Fu Li, the whole of slave market was already crowded with people. The human giant was squatting in the center of the plaza holding a bone club that was inversely sticking into the ground. Beside him were cages and inside of the cages were the over 200 thousand demon gods.
Seeing the demon gods, Mu Suge’s eyes turned red in anger as they were none other than the cavalries under the lead of his Tiger Jiao Cavalry; they were all brought here by the wicked human for sale!
But what enraged him even further was the huge banner set up beside the human giant, it wrote, “Presale of Mu Xiantian’s Third Prince.”
“Shut up, all of you!’ Fu Li’s deep and resonating voice rushed into their ears as he said, “A price worth his life and I will hunt him down now for the highest bidder!”
Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes, he signaled Mu Suge and Mu Suge nodded. Then, he took out a circular disc and said with a hoarse voice, “The treasure of a Creator for the life of this third prince.”
Fu Li curled his arms in front of his chest and criticized, “Poor bumpkins.”
Mu Suge’s face blushed red in anger as well as embarrassment while another old man beside him grinned, “A Creator-level treasure for the life of Mu Xiantian’s third son? How uneducated. Little Brother Fu Li, by luck I have encountered a piece of White Luminant Gold and acquired it. What do you think of it?”
Hu—
A ball of White Luminant Gold as huge as a planet was cast out from the old man’s Yuan Shen secret realms. It shone with a blinding radiance and its Metamagnet Divine Ray even distorted the surrounding space itself!
