Chapter 485, Death
Inside the Misty Rain Pavilion, in the Orchid Moon Pavilion, Lu Lan danced gracefully, accompanied by music and dance from her people. Various rare fruits and fine wines were served for the Nightfall God to enjoy.
When Yunyan, the mistress of the Misty Rain Pavilion, arrived, she saw two True God servants guarding the bottom of the pavilion. Most of the forces in Snowfield City knew that these were servants of the Nightfall God.
After opening the palace gate through the array, Yunyan entered Lanyue Pavilion and saw Lulan and her twenty-four True God Clan members dancing together.
Yunyan quietly stayed in the corner. Ever since Lord Nightfall visited Misty Rain Pavilion two centuries ago, Misty Rain Pavilion's situation in Snowfield City had improved considerably. Even Lord Puba died here for disturbing Lord Nightfall's music and dance performance. One could imagine that none of the dark forces in Snowfield City would be willing to offend Lord Nightfall for the sake of a mere Misty Rain Pavilion.
Let alone true gods, even void true gods residing in a large city, besides receiving offerings from the city lord's mansion, also have to receive offerings from the dark forces. The Misty Rain Pavilion isn't considered particularly powerful in Snowfield City, and Yunyan is merely an ordinary void true god. Although skilled in singing and dancing, she still needs to receive offerings from the dark forces.
Since the Nightfall God left last time, the dark forces have not come to collect the offerings for the past two centuries. Who dares to speculate on the thoughts of these gods? What if they think the Misty Rain Pavilion is alright, but you go to collect the offerings and get killed by the god in an instant?
That would be a pointless death.
Moreover, since Lord Nightfall, Lord Dark Edge, and Lord Crimson Flame had all visited Misty Rain Pavilion, its influence among Eternal True Gods had greatly increased. With Misty Rain Pavilion's fortunes improving, Yunyan personally rushed over upon hearing the news of Lord Nightfall's arrival at Orchid Moon Pavilion.
While enjoying the song and dance, Ye Muxuan, who was sitting in his seat, suddenly changed his expression. At the same time, Yunyan, who was quietly waiting in the corner, also changed her expression.
A causal communication token appeared in Ye Muxuan's hand. At this moment, the causal relationship within the token had dissipated, which meant that the token's owner had perished.
From the corner, Yunyan suddenly rushed out and hurriedly said, "Divine Lord—"
Lu Lan was dancing, her movements graceful and swaying to the rhythm of the music, when a sudden burst of smoke startled her. The petals of the pink and blue flower above her head trembled, causing her to lose her rhythm. The twelve tribespeople accompanying her also went off-beat, and the flowers above their heads wilted in fright.
Ye Muxuan raised a hand, and Yunyan, who had rushed out, stopped instantly, not daring to approach. When Lu Lan looked up, she noticed that the Nightfall God's face was frighteningly gloomy. Although she had only seen the Nightfall God once before, she only realized now that the Nightfall God, with his gloomy face, possessed a very heavy aura of power.
Ye Muxuan stared at the causal communication token in his hand. The hall was silent for a while. After a while, Ye Muxuan waved his hand, and Lu Lan and the other twenty-five clansmen retreated with pale faces.
"Divine Lord—" Yunyan stepped forward and looked at the same causal communication token in Ye Muxuan's hand. She suddenly realized that the Night God also knew about it.
That's true. Rumor has it that the Nightfall God and the Dark Edge God have an excellent relationship. Whenever the Nightfall God comes out of seclusion, the two gods often eat and drink together. The Dark Edge God even gifted the Nightfall God a mechanical treasure of the Eternal True God level, which is quite valuable.
"Dark Edge God, what have you been up to lately?" After a long while, Nightfall God's voice echoed in the hall.
"Some time ago, Dark Edge God-King received a request from the Food Kingdom to refine a batch of legion-type mechanical treasures. Most forces in Snowfield City know about this." Yunyan thought for a moment and said, "Two eras ago, Dark Edge God-King completed the refinement and sent it to the Food Kingdom together with Stone Fir God-King."
Shishan Divine Lord is the eldest disciple of Anfeng Divine Lord. He has received Anfeng's true teachings in crafting mechanical treasures and is a master-level treasure refiner who can replace Anfeng Divine Lord in overseeing the Dark Treasure Pavilion. I saw him once before in the Dark Treasure Pavilion; he is a somewhat taciturn rock-like life form.
So it's no wonder I didn't see Lord Anfeng and Lord Shishan when I came out of seclusion last time; they were escorting this batch of mechanical treasures to the Food Kingdom.
"You don't need to get involved in this matter." Ye Muxuan stood up, holding the communication token that had lost its cause and effect in his hand. He took a step forward, passed directly through the formation, and left the Misty Rain Pavilion.
Yunyan stared blankly at Ye Muxuan's disappearing figure. The array surrounding Yanyu Tower wasn't just the Lanyue Pavilion in front of her, but covered the entire cave. Moreover, only she possessed the token to enter and exit freely; none of the other members residing here, even Lu Lan, who was highly regarded by the Nightfall God, had the token to enter and exit freely.
However, the Nightfall God Lord simply took a step forward, completely ignoring all the array defenses, as if these arrays were just for show.
Is this the terrifying aspect of the Night God?
Turning her gaze away, Yunyan noticed a grain of cosmic sand that Ye Muxuan had casually tossed aside next to his seat.
"Nightfall God—" Yunyan stared at the grain of cosmic sand, thinking of the departing figure, her emotions were hard to describe. After holding it in for a long time, she carefully uttered a sentence, "—So terrifying."
Inside the Dark Treasure Pavilion, Ye Muxuan met Baomu, the second disciple of Dark Edge Divine Lord. Baomu had obviously also received news of his master's death and was calmly comforting the shop's employees.
Upon seeing the appearance of the Nightfall God, Baomu breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, with its senior brother in charge and its teacher as a powerful backer, the Dark Treasure Pavilion was a highly respected institution among the major powers of Snowfield City. Now that its teacher and senior brother had both perished, the best outcome for the Dark Treasure Pavilion was to fall into the hands of the City Lord's Mansion.
But before that, many dark forces in Snowfield City will likely try to profit from Dark Treasure Pavilion, and the fate of many of Dark Treasure Pavilion's servants and disciples is probably uncertain.
"Divine Lord." Baomu came out to greet Ye Muxuan and respectfully welcomed him into the Dark Treasure Pavilion.
In the quiet room, Ye Muxuan didn't mince words and went straight to the point: "You know about the death of Lord Anfeng?"
""
"Divine Lord, my teacher—" Baomu lowered his head, and in his hand appeared the causal communication tokens of his teacher, Divine Lord Anfeng, and his senior brother, Divine Lord Shishan. Sure enough, the causal relationships on the two causal communication tokens had dissipated.
The one in his hand might be considered a mistake, but with the two in Yunyan's hand, it couldn't be an accident. Now, with Baomu here as well, it means that the cause-and-effect communication tokens in the hands of three people have malfunctioned at the same time, which is basically impossible.
Therefore, Lord Anfeng truly perished, along with his most outstanding disciple.
Ye Muxuan's eyes dimmed slightly. This was the first Eternal True God he had encountered since arriving in the Origin Continent and Snowfield City, and also the first Eternal True God he could call a friend.
Dark Edge Divine Lord obtained the treasure-refining inheritance left by the Wu Kingdom, while I obtained the "Three Lives Scroll" inherited by the Wu Kingdom's ruler, as well as the inheritance of Xihe Great Sage, the strongest in the Chaos Realm under the Wu Kingdom's ruler. It can be said that I have a natural alliance with Dark Edge Divine Lord.
Previously, if it weren't for Dark Edge God Lord acting as an intermediary, Ye Muxuan would never have come into contact with Blood Eater God Lord, the hidden son of the Food Kingdom.
"From now on, the Dark Treasure Pavilion will be under my name. What do you say?" In the quiet room, Ye Muxuan looked at Baomu and suddenly spoke.
"Thank you for your mercy, Divine Lord!" Baomu suddenly looked up and said with delight.
Lord Nightfall has always been a loner, but his willingness to take over the Dark Treasure Pavilion now is clearly out of respect for his teacher, and this timely help naturally moved Baomu.
If the Night God doesn't lend a hand, the destruction of the Dark Treasure Pavilion is already a foregone conclusion!
After emerging from the meditation room, Baomu, the representative of Dark Edge God, immediately announced that Dark Treasure Pavilion would now be under the command of Nightfall God.
This announcement caused a huge uproar in Snowfield City. The City Lord's Mansion, the Ten Legions, the Snowfield Guards, the Five Great Families, and numerous dark forces all focused their attention on the Dark Treasure Pavilion. At the same time, news leaked from somewhere that Dark Edge Divine Lord and his eldest disciple, Stone Fir Divine Lord, had perished!
Ye Muxuan went to the Yanfeng Guild Hall, and after returning, in just one night, thirteen dark forces disappeared from Snowfield City, and tens of thousands of people died, including seventeen leaders of the Eternal True Gods.
The city lord's mansion, the city guards, the five major families, and other forces were completely unaware of this.
The news spread throughout the city the next morning, and all the forces in Snowfield City knew that Lord Nightfall was making an example of someone, but no force heard any commotion, and no force or powerful figure obtained any evidence.
There's only one thing: the seventeen Eternal Gods' divine bodies remained intact; they were directly killed by their wills!
