Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1615: One thousand fifty-eight Great Earthquake
Chapter 1615: One thousand fifty-eight Great Earthquake
Furthermore, the benefits that Hou Yi’s return to the Human Race brings are not as simple as just adding another Great Divine Transcendent to their ranks.
Hou Yi’s status in the Witch Clan is by no means ordinary; he is the second figure after the Twelve Ancestral Witches, with a status only under Xing Tian and is the heir to the Di Jiang tribe. At the same time, he is also the second in line to the Witch Clan leader’s succession.
This means that if Xing Tian does not wish to take up the position of the Witch Clan leader, then the role would fall upon Hou Yi’s shoulders.
They say the Ten Golden Crows are noble, the children of the Heavenly Gods. But is Da Yi’s status any lesser? Otherwise, how could he slay Di Jun’s nine sons? How could he intimidate the numerous Demon Gods?
Even with Di Jun’s capabilities, he did not dare to confront Da Yi openly in revenge but instead plotted against him in secret.
With such a high status within the Witch Clan, binding Da Yi to the Human Race’s chariot is equivalent to binding the Witch Clan to it as well.
Not to mention anything else, just to resolve the karma between Da Yi and the Human Race, the Witch Clan would have to assist the Human Race with all their might to ensure Da Yi’s smooth return.
Now, with just a few words, Jiang Chen can bring in such a powerful ally for the Human Race. Why would he not do it?
As for sparing Lu Ya, heh, when did Jiang Chen say he would not kill Lu Ya? He merely said he would let him off this time, as if he never saw him, hence sparing his life.
However, if he encounters Lu Ya again, actions will still need to be taken. Jiang Chen has already shown great mercy by sparing Lu Ya once. How could he possibly spare him a second time?
"Fellow daoists, I don’t have that much time to wait for you to consider. It’s just a simple question, do you agree to my condition or not?"
Jiang Chen did not wish to waste more time on Lu Ya and thus issued the last ultimatum to everyone present.
Lu Ya’s life, compared to the grand scheme of the Human Race, truly is insignificant. Similarly, breaking Di Jun’s seal on the Moon Star and releasing the Original Source mark of Da Yi sealed within is also not a big deal for these Great Divine Transcendents.
Indeed, doing so would bring substantial trouble to the Demon Clan. But what of it? The problems of the Demon Clan are for Di Jun Taiyi to worry about. What concern is it of theirs?
Moreover, they have no choice. Without doing this, they cannot save Lu Ya’s life. To fulfill the trust of their good friend and protect the only offspring of Di Jun, they are compelled to agree to Jiang Chen’s demands.
Imagine, even if Di Jun Taiyi returns one day, he would also understand their actions. Compared to Lu Ya’s life, lifting the seal on the Moon Star really isn’t a significant price to pay.
As for whether these Great Divine Transcendents can break Di Jun’s seal, Jiang Chen is completely unconcerned. In this world, there is no invincible Divine Ability, nor an unbreakable seal.
The reason why no one has undone it before is that no one has taken it seriously. But once someone does take it seriously, even the most formidable seal can be found a way to break.
Di Jun may be formidable, but he has fallen for far too long, having been eliminated by the times, and one should not underestimate the wisdom of the people today.
"Alright, as long as the Star Lord is willing to spare Lu Ya’s life, we agree to the condition," came the gentle sigh of a Sub-Saint, agreeing to Jiang Chen’s terms.
This Sub-Saint was one of Taiyi’s former good friends, with Lu Ya having been entrusted to his care by Taiyi.
He owed Taiyi a huge favor in the past; if not for Taiyi imparting his cultivation insights to him, he would not have been able to reach the realm of Sub-Saint today.
So even though he knew Lu Ya was big trouble, he could not refuse Taiyi’s request.
"Star Lord, this is a command token left by Brother Taiyi from back in the day. Holding this token and going to the Moon Star will break the seal left by Di Jun,"
This Great Divine Transcendent stepped forward, positioned himself between Jiang Chen and Lu Ya—first shielding Lu Ya behind him—then, taking a golden command token out of his sleeve, he handed it to Jiang Chen.
"The Taiyi command token?"
Upon hearing the name and purpose of this item, everyone present, including Jiang Chen, couldn’t help but change their expressions.
What did Taiyi mean by this? Why would there be a token left specifically to break the seal left by Di Jun on the Moon Star?
Could it be that he had foreseen today’s events long ago, hence leaving behind a token in advance to solve Lu Ya’s dilemma? ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Jiang Chen reached out and took the Taiyi command token, examining it closely.
The token was entirely golden, emitting a faint golden light. Inscribed within with Innate Divine Script was the word "Pardon," written in a grand and airy style, with strokes exuding a commanding and domineering power, as imposing as the divine might of the heavens.
This was the unique power of Taiyi, the regal aura of the celestial heavens, not easily replicated by others, which made it evident that this was personally inscribed by Taiyi himself.
"Sigh!"
Seeing the expression on Jiang Chen’s face, the Great Divine Transcendent guessed his thoughts, letting out a barely noticeable sigh, yet he did not disclose the purpose behind Taiyi’s leaving of this token.
Indeed, this token was intentionally left by Taiyi, but the one he was guarding against was not Jiang Chen, but Heaven’s Queen, Xihe.
Taiyi was worried that Xihe, in her quest for revenge against Di Jun, would choose to harm Lu Ya, thus specially leaving this token behind. In case Xihe took action against Lu Ya, the token can be presented to negotiate bypassing Lu Ya in exchange for lifting the seal on the Moon Star as a condition.
However, what Taiyi did not anticipate was that it would not be Xihe who made a move but Jiang Chen who would come instead.
