Rise of Humanity
chapter-759

Zhong Yue was a little lost, although the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds were huge, almost endless, where excatly could he hide?

WIth his identity exposed, Zhong Yue was now the most wanted man all in the universe. Even casually walking on the streets would lead to him being recognized almost immediately.

And it was still too early for him to head for Lei Zhe as his innate mortal body was yet to be cultivated; he had no confidence in passing through the 81 levels of Ancient Lei Zhe Realm.

“I want to receive Bai Canghai, the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud, Shi Buyi and the others first, then find Bai Canghai someone of his own kind.” Zhong Yue smiled, “I’ve promised to find him someone who also has a Curst Innate Spirit Body a long time ago. It’s time to fulfill my promise.”

Bi and An exchanged a look, “Then you may want to hurry. It will not be long before the Wei Shen Six Paths World and Realm Monarch Yunshan receive word of your escape. By then, the whole world, especially your courtyard, will be on full lockdown.”

Zhong Yue nodded while An continued, “There’s another thing you should know. After your capture, the courtyard was to be destroyed and your companions sold as slaves. However, the seventeenth prince stood out and claimed all of your belongings, dead or alive.”

Zhong Yue heaved a breath of relief, he thanked the three once again.

Bi and An then laughed simultaneously, “We were planning to have you as our Dao Guardian in our next life, other than to ensure our safety in the next life, we also wanted you to maintain a low profile for some time while acting as our Dao Guardian. That’ll supposedly help in delaying you from exposing your identity. However, who would foresee this sort of outcome so soon.”

Zhong Yue stiffened his face, “I have no intention of going back on my word. If I promised to be your Dao Guardian, then I will fulfill my promise regardless of what happens!”

Suan Ni abruptly asked, “That is your current plan. But let me ask you, what is your future plan after you’ve ascended into deityhood?”

Zhong Yue’s voice turned solemn, “I will go to the Zi Wei Galaxy!”

Bi, An, and Suan Ni were all shocked, To the Zi Wei Galaxy?

How audacious!

Then, Bi and An sent him off from the mountain, watching as Zhong Yue constantly changed appearances while heading toward the Lesser Saint Heaven Realm. The brothers sighed and An said, “Father told us to keep distance with him, but this time we’ve acted too close. If he gets caught, we will be dragged into a predicament as well, even Father will be implicated.”

An shook his head, “But he is in trouble, how can we stand by and watch? After this time, he will learn to be more cautious in the future.”

Suan Ni’s body was slowly petrifying into a statue. His voice came within the statue, “Your cultivation of a hundred lives is near its end. Reincarnate for just one more life and you will be able to escape the influence of the Six Paths and Reincarnation. Zhong Yue still intends to go to the Zi Wei Galaxy even after his terrible defeat here, he will see himself into another bigger trouble! Don’t get too close with him, or I am afraid that your efforts from your past 99 lives will go down the drain when you are on the cusp of success!”

“Fifth brother, rest assured, we know what we are doing.” Bi and An smiled in reply.

Zhong Yue returned to his courtyard, which was now effectively 17th Prince Helian Tianzheng’s current courtyard. There were soldiers on guard in and out, day and night.

Zhong Yue approached the gate guardians and was stopped, he took out a White Wu Chang’s mask and smiled, “Hand this mask to the seventeenth prince, tell him that an old friend is here to pay a visit.”

The guardian went in and came back not long after, saying politely, “Please, the prince is waiting for mister.”

Zhong Yue followed the guardian into his own courtyard, he was lead to the study room where Helian Tianzheng was sitting. The 17th prince was holding the mask in his hand, examining Zhong Yue from tip to toe in bewilderment. He waved his hand and asked the guardian to leave the room while sealing it after from the ears and eyes of the outsiders.

“Lord Yue, how daring!” When Helian Tianzhng saw Zhong Yue changing back to his true face, he exclaimed in shock, “You escaped! And you actually dared to come back! Do you know what this place is? This is the Realm Monarch’s residence, his strongest fortress! If you ever show any signs of Zhong Yue, you will die instantly!”

Zhong Yue smiled, “That’s why I didn’t show my true self before I come looking for you.”

Helian Tianzheng’s face turned gloomy, he waited for moments and siged, “Your audacity has earned my respect. Your men are in the courtyard, you are here to bring them away?”

Zhong Yue nodded, “You have my gratitude, prince. I am a Fuxi, are you not afraid of getting involved in troubles?”

Rays flashed across Helian Tianzheng’s eyes, he laughed, “What does it matter if you are a Fuxi or not? You’ve been captured and have never been here before. Furthermore, Shi Buyi, Old Man Six Paths, and the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud have escaped on their own. I know absolutely nothing regarding this matter.”

The two exchanged a look and laughed, then Helian Tianzheng’s psyche pulsed out from the study room. Moments later, Shi Buyi, Bai Canghai, Old Man Six Paths, and the Eighteen Emperors fo Heavenly Cloud came into the room. They were all overjoyed to be reunited.

“Time is not on our side. We will leave now before things get more complicated!”

Zhong Yue brought them into the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror and said, “Brothers and sisters, I will cast off your petrified eyes on the way out to avoid Queen Shi Ji’s tracking!”

Then, he bowed and thanked Helian Tianzheng and Helian Tianzheng reciprocated the formality. Zhong Yue’s appearance, bloodline, and aura changed again while he walked out of the courtyard.

Helian Tianzheng didn’t send him away and let him leave on his own.

Seconds before Zhong Yue exited the courtyard, he heard a lady’s voice asking, “Senior martial brother, can I ask you something, is your Lord Yue back yet?”

Zhong Yue looked up and saw two ladies walking toward him. One was the sly and cunning Shi Yinji and the other was Jun Wudao in her female’s clothes, which was also Yi Wanjun.

Zhong Yue’s heart skipped a beat, he stopped and answered, “I don’t know too. Princess Shi and Miss Yi, you may want to try the seventeenth prince.”

The ladies were disappointed, Yi Wanjun sighed and shook in despondent, “It seems like he will never come back…”

Shi Yinji sighed also, “I haven’t let him tasted my whips yet and he was captured away by Zi Guang already…”

When Zhong Yue continued his way out of the courtyard, Yi Wanjun’s voice suddenly shouted, “Stop right where you are!”

“How did you know my surname?” Yi Wanjun’s eyes glared in bright rays as she examined him from top to bottom.

Zhong Yue smiled, “The prettiest lady of the Heaven Realm, how can I not know?”

Shi Yinji immediately understood Yi Wanjun’s meaning, she gave a frigid smile and said, “You are a weird one. When the other men saw Wanjun’s female attire, their souls would all fly out of their agape mouths. Yet you, your eyes are clear as crystals, completely unperturbed. Either you are not a man, or you are used to seeing beauties like us!”

Zhong Yue was bewildered, he laughed, “No wonder the dear ladies are puzzled. To be frank, I already have a person in my heart, that’s why although you two are pretty like goddesses, I am not far too attracted.”

“Someone?” Shi Yinji raised her whip and said, “You referred her as a person? So you are a human Qi Practitioner? But why did my senses tell me you are a celestial?”

The duo surrounded Zhong Yue in the middle, their eyes stared at his face, trying to pick up even the slightest change of his expression. They were both meticulous ladies, once they spotted a loose thread, they would relentlessly tug and pull at it.

Zhong Yue asked helplessly, “Ladies, is there anything else you need?”

Shi Yinji rolled her eyes playfully, she suddenly lashed her whip at him and said frigidly, “Whether or not you are him, let me just lash you first and we’ll discuss further later!”

Paj—

A crisp sound resounded their ears as Zhong Yue stood unmovingly, allowing the whip to fully lash on him, he said, “Ladies, can I leave now?”

Shi Yinji raised her whip and wanted to lash on him again, but hesitated soon.

Then, Zhong Yue walked and crossed shoulder with Yi Wanjun as he left. Suddenly, a sweet yet trembling voice said from the back, “Bring me away with you!”

Zhong Yue stopped for a split second, then continued walking. He smiled and said, “Miss, I have owed too much to too many people, I cannot afford to bear any more on my shoulders. What lies ahead of me is not a road of joy or happiness. I cannot bring you along.”

Shi Yinji bit on her lips and suddenly, she shouted at the top of her lungs, “Are you him or not?”

Zhong Yue walked out of the gate, his voice could be heard lingering in their ears, “You’ve already lashed your whip on me, does that count as fulfilling your wish?”

Shi Yinji’s body shuddered, tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably while Zhong Yue waved his hand and left.

All of a sudden, Yi Wanjun rushed toward him and said while smiling, “The path ahead is filled with obstacles, but will it be anymore deadly than the times I’ve spent alone in the Prison Realm? Back then, I saw no hope, felt no emotions, and feared death’s arrival every single second of my life. Lord Yue will never return, I no longer have a reason to stay in the Heaven Realm and will eventually return the Prison Realm. But instead of returning to the Prison Realm, I might as well follow you. Your future is dark and cloudy, but will it be worse than the Prison Realm?”

Zhong Yue startled, a sudden gush of warmth surrounded his heart and somewhat, he nodded.

“Yinji, are you coming?” Yi Wanjun turned and looked at Shi Yinji.

Shi Yinji’s face was filled with hesitation, she suddenly bit on her lips and shook, “I will not. I am the princess of the Wei Shen Six Paths World, the beloved daughter of the Realm Monarch, why should I follow a poor kid and live a wanderer’s life? Go, go and never return! I don’t want to see you ever again!”

Yi Wanjun was shocked but followed as Zhong Yue left.

“Wanjun!” Shi Yinji shouted, “I am better than you! I’ve slept with your man before! But don’t blame him, I forced him into it!”

Yi Wanjun’s body shuddered slightly as she walked away.

Behind them, Shi Yinji’s face was gloomy and her expression was cold. When she could no longer see their backs, the princess headed back to her courtyard in tears.

“I can’t, I can’t… I am the daughter of the Realm Monarch, the daughter of my Mother Queen. If I follow you, they will be able to track and catch us. I can’t….”

On the way out, Zhong Yue asked Yi Wanjun to enter the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror as well while he rushed toward the teleportation formation at the abandoned border of the Heaven Realm. It was the same formation that was used to send King Geng away from the Wei Shen Six Paths World.

A few days later, he arrived at the teleportation formation and immediately let the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud out of the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror. He asked them to sit down and he said, “Your petrified limbs and eyes are the works of Queen Shi Ji. If I break them away, Queen Shi Ji will be able to sense us immediately. But if we don’t, then Queen Shi Ji will be able to track your location. Thus, we have to be quick, to break all the seals away in a short time and leave before Shi Ji arrives.”

“Please do it, King Geng!” Heavenly King Lu’s expressions were filled with excitement while he said solemnly.

Just before Zhong Yue was going to do it, a thought flashed across his mind and he suddenly understood why Shi Yinji didn’t follow him.

The young man from the Zhong Shan Clan was silent for a long time after that.
