Chapter 851 -855: The Terrifying Mechanist
…
A crystalline moon butterfly, shedding special luminescent powder under the moonlight, fluttered over the high walls and landed in the Colored Sand Pool.
The clear stream flowed gently along the terraced Colored Sand Pool, softly cascading over a pair of jade feet.
As the moon butterfly descended, it transformed into the outline of a woman, becoming gradually more distinct in the moonlight.
The woman in the Colored Sand Pool quietly closed her eyes to rest, basking in the gentle moonlight, and relishing the cool and tender caress of the pool’s current.
“What did you see?” the woman in the Colored Sand Pool asked.
“Flaunting God and that Master Zhu,” Xiang Shen answered.
“What did they say?” Xuan Ge inquired, standing in the Colored Sand Pool.
“The dark wind from Flaunting Heaven Peak and Hongtian Peak were extinguished, and a Son of Heaven figure was slain. Locals say that both peaks incurred the wrath of the gods and were slaughtered by the deities, but after some investigation, the people of Flaunting God’s peak found traces of the Yama Dragon. Hence, they concluded that the one who destroyed the two peaks must be a Dragon Shepherd with a Yama Dragon,” Xiang Shen said.
“So, is Fu Xin going to confront Master Zhu to demand recourse?” Xuan Ge spoke.
“Yes, he demanded that Master Zhu offer up two severed arms as atonement. Obviously, Master Zhu didn’t take Flaunting God very seriously. Flaunting has truly become more decrepit. In fact, not only newcomers like Master Zhu, but some of us from Tianshu who have obtained high god patterns in Dragon Gate, are gradually surpassing some of the old gods,” Xiang Shen said.
“In Dragon Gate, have you ever encountered him?” Xuan Ge continued to ask.
“Master Zhu?” Xiang Shen spoke.
“Mm.”
“No.”
“Regarding the matter of who destroyed Hua Chou’s body, do you have any other clues?” Xuan Ge said.
“There is someone who should be able to provide us with a quite favorable clue, and it seems they are about to arrive,” Xiang Shen said.
“Let’s return to the matter of Flaunting and Master Zhu. Slaying the two Heavenly Peaks, killing Hua Dongming as well as War Saint…” Xuan Ge said.
“This person has gone too far; he’s practically a Demon Lord,” Xiang Shen said.
“There are no shortage of slandered gods in Tianshu. It’s not a bad thing if someone clears some of them out,” Xuan Ge commented calmly.
“That may be true, but if Tianshu loses too many deities, we might only be able to suffer humiliation when facing other divine territories,” Xiang Shen said.
“Tianshu needs fresh blood. Let’s just observe for a while longer,” Xuan Ge said.
“He is the companion of Martial Saint, and Martial Saint has expanded your frontiers for you, strengthening the faith. If he is obedient, it’s not impossible to bring him into our camp. With such a Sharp Sword, we could cleanse Tianshu of its pestering, slandered, and Violent Gods. If Tianshu continues such chaos, its fate will end, utterly incomparable to other God Territories,” Xiang Shen said.
Just as Xuan Ge was about to speak, Worship Sage Song Tao came walking from not far away, standing outside the Colored Sand Pool at a respectful distance to give a greeting.
“What is it?” Xuan Ge asked.
Worship Sage hesitated for a moment.
“No matter, speak your mind,” Xuan Ge said.
“In the Northern Giant City, many citizens have built statues for Martial Saint,” Worship Sage said.
“What else?” Xuan Ge probed further.
“In the Twenty-Four Lakes Forest City, the rites they perform, they worship Martial Saint,” Worship Sage said.
“Have those citizens who worship Martial Saint been disturbed by darkness?” Xuan Ge asked.
“No, the statues of Martial Saint can likewise deter the night.”
“I understand, you may go,” Xuan Ge said indifferently.
Worship Sage seemed to have more to say, but upon seeing there was a guest present, he dared not say more and turned to leave.
Xiang Shen waited for Song Tao to leave before knitting his brows and speaking to Xuan Ge, “This Martial Saint Li Yunzi has already started to suppress the divine rights of other saints; is she now extending her reach to the rights of faith as well?”
“No place is better at winning hearts than the battlefield, where we don our armor and fight side by side,” Xuan Ge said.
“But she must not touch your divine rights; it’s time for you to strip her of her Saint position,” Xiang Shen said.
A God Country can only have one faith.
The Xuange God Country can only believe in Xuange!
Li Yunzi had overstepped!
“She can restrain Ming Meng God and has just returned in triumph. To act in such a way would only chill the hearts of the citizens of the God Country,” Xuan Ge said.
“But you must keep her under control, at least hold something that would make it impossible for her to resist, or perhaps some unforgivable evidence of her guilt,” Xiang Shen said.
“I have reached a preliminary conclusion about the Flowing God matter. It remains to be seen whether she’s willing to hand over the murderer,” Xuan Ge said.
“Ah?”
“The matter regarding the War Saint is not so easily covered up either. She suppressed it with military force, but inevitably there are those in the God Country Capital who are dissatisfied with her,” Xuan Ge continued.
“Indeed, with those two counts against her, going after her wouldn’t seem amiss to the citizens,” Xiang Shen said.
“Flaunting is unlikely to let Master Zhu off the hook, and this will involve her as well…” Xuan Ge continued.
“Got it. If we press on her for one issue, it might backfire. But if we accumulate these issues together, regardless of her contributions to the battle with Ming Meng God, she cannot escape punishment,” Xiang Shen said.
Xuan Ge shook her head.
She had no intention of punishing Li Yunzi.
Li Yunzi was her ultimate Sharp Sword.
As a Mechanist lacking certain aspects, Li Yunzi was someone who could complete her. Xuan Ge preferred to keep Li Yunzi in the God Country, using her overreaching acts and secrets as leverage to maintain control over her.
“Is your assignment going well?” Xuan Ge asked.
“Naturally, we are fully prepared and ready to move out.”
“Go ahead, I won’t intervene.”

Xia Mountain Semi-Court
Zhu Minglang was browsing through the paintings Nan Lingsha had made.
At that moment, an extremely ominous premonition surged in his heart.
Subconsciously, he lifted his head and glanced at the twilight sky dome, beside the moonlight, his own Fu Chen Star suddenly flashed a blood-red light…
A blood disaster???
Zhu Minglang looked at his Fu Chen Star in astonishment.
The brilliance of Fu Chen Star was a reflection of his own God’s Light projected onto the firmament.
Therefore, the blood light of Fu Chen Star meant that he was doomed to a bloody disaster, although it was just a start of becoming a divine being, it should be understood in this way.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh WHOOSH!!!!”
Suddenly, gusts of golden wind started sweeping outside the Xia Mountain Semi-Court, Zhu Minglang lifted his head and saw those golden winds intertwine in the space around, forming a thick barrier of golden wind!
The barrier of golden wind became more and more solid, eventually becoming like a huge cage that enveloped the Xia Mountain halfway up.
Zhu Minglang frowned.
This was the capital of the Xuange Divine Country, and it was very close to the Xuan Ge Temple.
After the formal commencement of the Leader’s Conference, any person including True Gods was strictly forbidden to engage in combat within the Xuange Country Capital.
Zhu Minglang was puzzled, wondering who would dare to defy Xuan Ge and all the Leader’s Conference’s accords and directly make a move against him here.
But very soon, Zhu Minglang realized something was amiss.
Golden helmets and silver chains…
It was the God Forbidden Army of Xuange Country Capital!
Everything happened so suddenly, before Zhu Minglang could act, the entire Xia Mountain Semi-Court was overtaken by a divine troop; a large number of the God Forbidden Army with golden helmets and silver chains appeared outside the courtyard and quickly sealed off the place without leaving any openings!!
The leaders were Worship Sage Song Tao, the mysterious man in tiger skin, and Xiang Shen; they appeared out of thin air within that golden wind barrier…
“Worship Sage, what is the meaning of this?” Zhu Minglang asked, not understanding.
“Master Zhu, why are you here??” Song Tao asked.

“This is the courtyard I bought.” Zhu Minglang said.
“Well, that is convenient. We are ordered to lie in ambush here to arrest the murderer who killed the Flowing God. This woman by your side is the person we need to capture,” Song Tao said.
Zhu Minglang’s expression did not change, but he was secretly shocked!
Discovered???
What’s going on? Everything was hidden so well, and the other side had no clues at all. How could they surround this place without any signs!
The God Forbidden Army was Xuan Ge’s strongest force. They were specially designed to deal with beings of divine levels, and they clearly used extremely powerful Divine Aids. They had shielded Zhu Minglang’s crisis Divine Sense and also arranged a quite powerful trapping God wind formation!
“Do you have any proof? You can’t just capture people whenever you want,” Zhu Minglang spoke and began to stall for time.
Why was he discovered so suddenly??
Could it be Xuan Ge??
Xuan Ge had used her Mechanist Divine Skills!!
This was troubling.
If Nan Lingsha was captured, things would become complicated.
The one killed was Flowing God, a True God of the Hua Chou Faction; this was far more serious and complex than the affair with the War Saint.
The War Saint, after all, was the aggressor, and seen by an army of a hundred thousand gods, Zhu Minglang could somewhat justify self-defense. But for the incident where Nan Lingsha killed the Flowing God, it involved Saint Hua Chong and the divine authority of True Gods; it was an absolute crime!
He couldn’t let them take Nan Lingsha away…
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Minglang asked questions while placing his hand behind his back.
If the truth was revealed, they would have to fight their way out.
However, this place was too close to the Xuan Ge Temple, and the other party had come fully prepared with immense strength; escaping would be very difficult, and once a fight broke out, various True Gods would keep coming.
“Master Zhu, this matter should have nothing to do with you, so it would be best not to intervene too much. We are just asking this lady to go to the Divine Temple for a few questions that our God Xuan Ge wants to ask personally. If there is no guilt, she will naturally not be troubled,” Xiang Shen spoke at this time.
A few questions?
How many could withstand the inquiry of a Mechanist?
Once taken away, it meant conviction.
Zhu Minglang maintained his smile while whispering to Nan Lingsha, “I’ll take you and fight our way out. We cannot just surrender.”
However, Nan Lingsha shook her head.
“Listen to me,” Zhu Minglang said seriously.
It was unclear whether Xuan Ge was friend or foe.
Furthermore, Li Yunzi had mentioned that Xuan Ge only needed her and didn’t fully trust her. Xuan Ge had apparently seen through Nan Lingsha’s deed of killing the Flowing God and most likely knew of her connection with Li Yunzi. By capturing Nan Lingsha at this time, it was very possible she was maneuvering to coerce Li Yunzi…
The Mechanist was truly frightening, and he should not underestimate a divine being with such capabilities.
