Chapter 510 - 510 | Danger
In a few years from now, if everything went like the previous timeline, the Lower Heavens would see the rise of God\'s Legion, and leading them would be two very powerful figures.
Wang Yao and Shi Yan.
Everyone would know that Wang Yao was the leader, but the one who deterred the most was Chaos Emperor Shi Yan.
His feats would make him an insurmountable wall in the eyes of his generation, an unfathomable existence in the eyes of mortals, and an Emperor in the eyes of everyone.
Chao Emperor Shi Yan - this was what he would be proclaimed.
The first cultivator to be titled an Emperor.
"....and you\'re saying that all this was propaganda to showcase Wang Yao\'s power?" Ye Tian Yun frowned.
Wang Yao nodded, "Yes. Once the image of Chaos Emperor was etched in the heart of the Lower Heavens cultivators, it was later revealed that this powerful existence was a subordinate of Wang Yao."
Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin, "That\'s a good strategy. He created someone to compare himself with and then thoroughly suppressed the other party\'s presence, making himself rise in the eyes of the people."
"Yes," Wang Yao nodded, "Fang Chen wasn\'t called the master strategist for no reason. This plan was the reason why his position was cemented in the God\'s Legion, even though he never became one of the core members like his friend Xiao Ming."
"Oh," Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Did he choose not to become one? Or Wang Yao didn\'t wish for him to be?"
Wang Yao replied, "The first option. Fang Chen chose not to be part of God\'s Legion. Rather he called himself a friend of the God\'s Legion."
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "That\'s clever."
Wang Yao nodded, "Yes, it is. By becoming a friend of the God\'s Legion, he was on equal standing with the whole Legion instead of being Wang Yao\'s subordinate."
Ye Tian Yun asked, "Did Wang Yao not see through this?"
Wang Yao shook his head, "It was too late by the time that guy noticed this. However, by this time, Fang Chen had already shown his worth, and Wang Yao didn\'t wish to send him away because that would be a big loss for the God\'s Legion."
Ye Tian Yun frowned, "What did he think of Fang Chen?"
"A nuisance." Wang Yao replied, "In that guy\'s eyes, Fang Chen was a nuisance. And when you killed Fang Chen, you actually did a favor for Wang Yao. This is the reason why there wasn\'t a huge reaction from the God\'s Legion."
"Oh…" Ye Tian Yun had a thoughtful expression as he replied, "I was waiting for them to lose control of their emotions and go berserk. If they had gone out of control, I could have gotten one more fish in the hook."
Wang Yao shrugged, "I don\'t think so. Wang Yao may not have liked Fang Chen, but Fang Chen was very loyal to the God\'s Legion. He even arranged some things long before his death."
" Yes," Ye Tian Yun nodded, "I suffered a lot even after that bastard\'s death."
Wang Yao smiled, "It was too late by the time Wang Yao understood Fang Chen\'s importance. If he had Fang Chen in the Upper heavens, he may not have had to come back in time and lose everything."
Ye Tian Yun lightly nodded, "Fang Chen was indeed someone with high intelligence, and I knew this when I saw him in front of me. Still, I chose to kill him because I couldn\'t look at him without having Butler Liu\'s mangled corpse flash in front of my eyes."
Wang Yao pursed his lips, "Butler Liu was quite unfortunate."
"Oh, this reminds me," Ye Tian Yun suddenly asked, "How did you guys succeed in defeating Butler Liu? From what I have seen, Butler Liu\'s cultivation is way beyond the Saint Realm. How did you defeat him?"
Wang Yao shrugged, "He was heavily injured. His cultivation had regressed to Half-Saint Realm."
"Heavily injured?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "When did that happen? I never saw him injured...:"
Wang Yao frowned, "Really? Butler Liu was in a really bad state. Even in the Half-Saint realm, he was very weak."
"What…"
This came as a surprise for Ye Tian Yun.
He had never noticed even a bit of injury on Butler Liu.
After a few moments of thinking, Ye Tian Yun asked, "Do you know how Fang Chen killed his father, Su Ming? Sect Leader Su is definitely not an existence he can handle."
Wang Yao frowned, "Why not? Sect Leader Su Ming isn\'t as powerful as you think, he was only in the Peak of Nascent Soul Realm when things got heated, and by the time the final day came, his cultivation had regressed to the Core Formation Realm."
"What?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "That\'s impossible. I can confirm that Sect Leader Su has at least the cultivation realm of the Great Saint Realm."
"Great Saint Realm!?" Wang Yao\'s eyes opened wide in shock, "Are you kidding me? A Great Saint Realm can rule the whole Lower Heavens, why would he just be a Sect Leader of an insignificant sect?"
"And don\'t forget that he never attacked the Fang Clan, no matter how much he hated the other party. Why was that the case if he had such a high cultivation realm?"
Ye Tian Yun frowned, "I don\'t know, but he is in the Great Saint Realm, that\'s a fact."
"Damn, then why was he in the Nascent Soul Realm when Fang Chen began to target him?" Wang Yao was confused, "And how do you know his cultivation?"
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Sect Leader Su Ming is a part of the Great Ye Corps. Butler Liu and I met him before we visited Wang Yao."
"Oh?" Wang Yao was surprised, "That\'s news for me. I wasn\'t aware of what was happening outside, so maybe that\'s why I missed it."
Ye Tian Yun shrugged, but suddenly a thought flashed in his eyes.
"Didn\'t you say Butler Liu was heavily injured and his cultivation was regressed?" He asked Wang Yao.
"Yes."
"Then what if Sect Leader Su was also suffering from the injury? We know that both of them are part of the Great Ye Corps. Maybe they suffered from the same injury?"
"Hm.. maybe…" Wang Yao lightly nodded.
"Wait a minute…"
Suddenly Ye Tian Yun remembered something.
"Butler Liu called Sect Leader Su to the Middle Heavens for a mission, and before coming back here, he also told me that he will be going to the Upper Heavens for a mission."
"Most probably both of them are going to the Upper Heavens for the same mission…"
"Is this the mission in which they will be heavily injured?"
Ye Tian Yun frowned as he thought about this.
If he knew about this earlier, he would have at least warned Butler Liu to be careful during the mission and retreat when things get out of hand.
\'Who is this enemy… able to crush even Great Saint Realm cultivators…\'
\'Sigh... I hope everything\'s alright...\'
"I have already affected the timeline a lot… I wonder if the outcome of the mission will be affected…."
