Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 1853: Extortion


With such an unconventional supreme leader, it seems like the entire human world is about to undergo tremendous changes. Meanwhile, over at the Four Great Heavens... it's truly becoming dangerous!

This guy clearly seems like the type who won't reason with you at all!

In that instant, Fa Tian and Li Guang almost simultaneously had a similar thought: The Heavenly Lord... is truly boundlessly wise! It seems that in the future, Immeasurable Heaven and Purple Gold Heaven are really in trouble.

Thinking of this, Li Guang suddenly asked, "Heavenly Lord Chu, all those people just went out... What are they going to do? Could you tell us?"

"Of course, it's no big deal!" Chu Mo casually replied, "They went hunting."

"..." Fa Tian and Li Guang were both speechless, staring at Chu Mo.

Hunting?

Who is the prey?

With an army of tens of thousands of cultivators at the ancestral realm, who in the world would remain indifferent?

If they casually invaded a major heavenly realm, the turmoil it would cause would be unparalleled!

Thinking of this, both Fa Tian and Li Guang felt a bit uneasy.

Li Guang looked at Chu Mo, gave a dry smile, and said, "Um, Heavenly Lord Chu, can you tell us... The two of us, representing Carefree Heaven and Immeasurable Heaven, have come under the decree of the Heavenly Lord, to extend our sincerity and goodwill."

Fa Tian nodded beside him, "That's right, we came here with sincerity..."

Chu Mo casually said, "Oh... I see, then I'll have them change course."

Change... change course?

Fa Tian and Li Guang almost shivered. Poor these two ancestral-level heavenly cultivators, their skills are above all creatures in this world. But at this moment, they were truly a little scared by Chu Mo.

In their hearts, they wondered if this guy really wanted this group to attack our heavenly realm at first?

But thinking again, they understood that the nearest heavenly realm to here is the Great Carefree Immeasurable Heaven. If there's an attack... it would certainly be there first.

But who can say for sure about such things?

Who knows if Chu Mo might, out of nowhere, decide to attack Namo Heaven and Carefree Heaven?

Li Guang quickly said, "Heavenly Lord Chu, please make sure to notify those people... The two of us are here to negotiate peace!"

Chu Mo nodded cheerfully, "Alright, don't worry, as long as your sincerity is there, we naturally don't want two strong enemies."

Still have to be sincere? Is this extortion?

Although the two heavenly envoys brought a lot of resources, just to befriend Chu Mo, at this moment, they felt like lambs to the slaughter.

Once again, they were filled with doubt: Is this guy in front of us really a Heavenly Lord? Where's your majesty? Where's your aura? Where is your field? Aren't this kind of haggling in negotiations and blatant extortion usually done by subordinates?

The two were almost in tears, a rightful Heavenly Lord brazenly extorting them.

This kind of scene probably has never happened since the beginning of time.

They suddenly missed Pangu and thought: If the great Pangu were alive, ruling this Fifth Heaven, as long as the Four Great Heavens showed a little goodwill, nothing would have happened with Pangu, right? Why did the Heavenly Lords of the Four Great Heavens have to be at odds with Pangu back then?

Later, on the border wall, the two heavenly messengers who initially came with infinite confidence, with a bit of humiliation, handed over all their resources.

These resources were truly considerable.

Combined, they could make up for about half of what Chu Mo spent to set up three arrays.

But Chu Mo was still not very satisfied. After understanding their thoughts, Chu Mo began to scheme. He looked at Fa Tian and Li Guang and said, "Your sincerity... how should I put it, it's barely adequate. Your calculations are indeed precise. The resources you brought are just right to make up for half of our losses. If the other two heavens also send resources, well, it would equal our total losses. I must say, you Four Great Heavens... are pretty good at counting."

Fa Tian and Li Guang were speechless, listening to Chu Mo's sarcastic words, both feeling enormously wronged, thinking that these resources were originally meant to exchange for our people! Now we've brought no one back, and the resources are given to you, so why do you still look unsatisfied?

However, they only thought this. From the moment they saw the ten thousand cultivators at the ancestral realm going to attack the Four Great Heavens, they both understood that the human clan's counterattack has begun.

If at this time, they still talked about the demands of the Four Great Heavens or offered peace, they themselves felt it meaningless.

The human clan wasn't as weak as they imagined, and moreover, under the leadership of this unconventional Heavenly Lord, they were strong!

They will only grow stronger in the future!

At this moment, Chu Mo said, "That's it, then. You can go back. This time, the resources you provided are merely our war losses, but our psychological wounds are not so easily healed."

Damn it! What kind of psychological wounds do you have? Are your psychological wounds the result of wiping out the entire allied forces of the Four Great Heavens?

Fa Tian and Li Guang both felt an urge to curse.

Poor souls, these two ancestral-level heavenly beings, have never gone through such an ordeal.

In their minds, the Heavenly Lord is the topmost existence in this world, every move they make, every word they speak, conforms to the Heavenly Dao. Every sentence they speak is well thought out. Every action they take has profound influence.

As for this Heavenly Lord Chu Mo? No matter how you look at it... he seems like one of those pesky humans who, once they grasp the rationale and gain the upper hand, just won't let go.

Thinking of this, Fa Tian said with some difficulty, "Heavenly Lord Chu, you see, we have come here with great sincerity. Our people have died... well, this can't be blamed on you, Heavenly Lord Chu, but we are thinking, in the future, if we can coexist peacefully with your Fifth Heavenly Realm. To not hurt each other. On your side, can you make a promise?"

Li Guang, over there, also looked at Chu Mo with a face full of hope.

Although they can't bring back the cultivators of their Great Heavenly Realms, to bring back a promise would be good!

This way, at least, it doesn't seem like they're that incompetent.

After all, whether or not they can bring back people is not something they can decide. But whether or not they can get a promise from Chu Mo is something they can strive for.

"I can't." Chu Mo straightforwardly refused the two of them.

At this moment, Fa Tian and Li Guang both had an impulse; they really, really, really wanted to just strike out at Chu Mo. They thought of killing him and be done with it!

If they could, they would undoubtedly attack without hesitation!

But the problem is, despite appearances suggesting that Chu Mo has no aura emanating, just one thing shows clearly that they, at their level, can't perceive anything from Chu Mo. In other words, they can't fathom Chu Mo's depth!

To be unreadable to them, in this world, there is only one type of person—Great Heavenly Lords!

Great Heavenly Lords mean that they are definitely not opponents they can defeat.

Not to mention, this is the Pangu World!

With the blessing of this world, Chu Mo could even easily suppress them.

Thinking of this, Fa Tian said with some bitterness, "Then, Heavenly Lord Chu, what will it take for you to agree?"

Chu Mo glanced at Fa Tian, then at Li Guang, and said, "This matter depends on your sincerity."

"But we have already expressed our sincerity!" Li Guang said with a face full of helplessness.

"The sincerity you've expressed this time is actually the damage caused by your Four Great Heavens coalition to the Pangu World. This has nothing to do with your current request at all." Chu Mo said indifferently, "So, if you truly want to show your sincerity, you need to start over again."

Seeing the two wanting to argue, Chu Mo said, "Don't think I'm bullying you, or that I'm making extravagant demands; in fact, I still do appreciate you."

"..." The two were speechless.

Thinking, do we need your appreciation? You haven't even lived through many years in total, and we... we are top-tier beings who've lived through endless ages, alright?

Chu Mo continued, "You expressing goodwill at this time makes me quite relieved. Therefore, my army will not advance towards your Great Heavens for now. However, given the many mistakes you've made before, there comes a time when these mistakes need to be corrected."

After a moment of silence, Chu Mo put away his cavalier demeanor and looked at them seriously, "Don't forget, I am a descendant of Pangu! Also, a bearer of Pangu's legacy. How did your Four Great Heavens treat Pangu back then? This debt has to be settled sooner or later."

The two envoys originally intending to argue with Chu Mo shivered all over at the mention of Pangu's name. They looked at each other with a speechless feeling.

Yes...

Pangu!

The name that the Four Great Heavenly Realms can never escape!

This is the true root of the conflict between the Human Clan and the Heavenly People.

Indeed, judging by the current strength, the Human Clan is far inferior to the Four Great Heavens. But that's not how you measure it. Otherwise, the forty-thousand coalition of the Four Great Heavens would have flattened the entire Pangu World. But what was the result? Didn't they all die?

So now, the humans of the Pangu World truly have the confidence to challenge, even threaten them!

War, this thing has always been something the Heavenly People dread the most.

But humans are different; humans are inherently born with a belligerent nature.

Finally, Fa Tian and Li Guang sighed, then looked at Chu Mo and said, "This matter is beyond our decision. So, Heavenly Lord Chu, please temporarily restrain your subordinates and do not let them enter Namo Heaven and Carefree Heaven. When we return, we will report to the Great Heavenly Lords, and whatever the result, we will certainly give you an answer, Heavenly Lord Chu."

"It's up to you. Ten thousand Pangu years." Chu Mo said indifferently, "That's the deadline."

The two nodded, then Fa Tian said, "Oh, right, Heavenly Lord Chu, there's one more thing, consider it an act of goodwill from us."

"Speak," Chu Mo looked at Fa Tian.

Fa Tian said, "The Immeasurable Heavenly Realm and Primordial World's Purple Gold Heaven might have sent a large number of warriors here again. It might not take long before they arrive. At that time, I hope you, Heavenly Lord Chu, will be extra careful."

Chu Mo nodded, showing no sign of surprise, "I understand."

Fa Tian and Li Guang nodded and then left with heavy hearts. Their figures quickly disappeared in the vast universe.
