Chapter 859: The Six Monarch Races

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“What a huge piece of White Luminant Gold, it’s more than enough to forge an Imperial Emperor-level weapon!”

The celestials were amazed. To be able to acquire such a huge piece of White Luminant Gold was a solid evidence of the owner’s strength and fortune. Thus, the celestial old man raised his head up proudly and he said, “I put in a lot of effort to have this and was just planning to forge an Imperial Emperor-level weapon for my own use.”

“But this, can only change just one of Third Prince Mu’s fingers.” Fu Li grinned happily, “A Creator himself is more valuable than this piece of White Luminant Gold, let alone the third son to Mu Xiantian. Even if we disregard his prestigious identity, the treasures in his Yuan Shen secret realms alone may probably worth more than him himself! In addition to Mu Xiantian’s cultivation heritage, his bloodline, this Third Prince Mu is worth at least as valuable as an Imperial Emperor! I demand at least eight Imperial Emperor-level treasures! At least two of the eight treasures has to be paid upfront!”

“Fu Li, you ask too much! Who can ever afford such a hefty price?”

“The Third Prince Mu isn’t worth so much!”

The celestials in the slave market were shouting in a clamor, making loud noises about Fu Li’s price. All of a sudden, Fu Li stood up and abruptly stomped the huge bone club on the floor.

A loud boom echoed in their ears concomitant with the savage barbarian’s angered voice, “SHUT UP! Make any more noise and I will sell you people to the demons!”

Immediately, the slave market became steeped in silence.

Everyone knew just how brutal and barbaric the human beast Fu Li was. He spoke of no virtues or moralities, and no one dared to infuriate him further.

Almost every celestial race in the ancient universe was at least once a client to the Star Torrent Fortress’s human race. These humans were bound to no principles and laws, as long as the price was right, everyone and anyone could make the humans fight like beasts for them.

Humans of the Star Torrent Fortress were the greediest among the ancient universe, the only thing they recognized was wealth and their own selves. As the human race was one of a kind, this puny race belonged neither to the celestials nor the demons. As a result, it gave them the perfect justification to pick any side according to the payment that was offered to them. They fought the celestials for the demons, fought the demons for the celestials, sold celestial slaves to the demons, and sold demon slaves to the celestials.

“My initial plan is to sell Third Prince Mu to the monarch races, you people offer too low of a price. Do you think this is a game?”

Fu Li’s muscles were thumping in strength as a weird smile broke out on his horrific face, “But I do have some demon gods in the cages, although I’ve sealed them, they are quite strong and belong to Third Prince Mu’s Tiger Jiao Cavalry. These demon gods might’ve had Third Prince Mu’s locations in their heads, why don’t you people buy some of them and search their memories, that way, you can head out and capture Third Prince Mu yourselves, is it not?”

“Don’t worry, they aren’t expensive, I ask a Deity Overlord-level treasure for a True Deity demon slave, a Deity Emperor-level treasure for a Deity Overlord, a Creator-level treasure for a Deity Emperor, and an Imperial Emperor-level treasure for a Creator. The prices are now set and I have no intention of going back on my words!”

“Overpriced than the usual market, but a fair deal it still remains.”

The celestials were piqued in interest. Fu Li has asked too much, it was ludicrous to contract him with eight Imperial Emperor-level treasures for Mu Suge’s life. However, if they could interrogate and extract information regarding Mu Suge’s whereabouts from the demon gods of the Tiger Jiao Cavalry, they would be able to capture Mu Suge themselves and at the same times, save a huge amount of money.

“Your Highness, buy them all.” Zhong Yue remained usual ostensibly but quickly conducted his voice to Mu Suge and said.

Mu Suge’s eyelids thumped, to pull out such a huge fortune all of a sudden still distressed him greatly. To buy his own men back with his own money, since when has Mu Suge, the third prince of Xian Tian Palace, ever needed to stoop this low?

Whereas Zhong Yue continued, “Will the fortune not fall back into You Highness’s pocket after you make the humans yield?”

Mu Suge was enlightened, he stepped forth but before he could answer, someone else had shouted before him, “These demon gods, we Jitong Clan will buy them all!”

The Jitong Clan?

Zhong Yue traced the voice and saw a young man walking toward them with a few Creators guarding him in the center. The young man harbored the air of a noble and even the Creators were acting only as his guards, one could tell from this just how high positioned he was.

The Jitong Clan was another monarch race in the ancient universe. In the Zi Wei Galaxy, there were 24 monarch races; whereas in the ancient universe, there were also 12 monarch races.

Among the 12 monarch races of the ancient universe, half of them were celestials and the other half were demons. The Jitong Clan was one of the celestial monarch races, it was also a great clan that was no weaker than the Jinwu Clan.

All of a sudden, another voice was heard laughing, “I too have interest in these demon gods, I wonder if Brother Yunfei is able to let me have them?”

The young True Deity turned around and his heart stiffened up, he smiled and replied, “Ah, Senior Martial Brother Mo Haozun of the Moyun Clan. I suppose, the rule of first come first serve is something that you are no stranger to, correct?”

Moyun Clan? Another monarch race!

Zhong Yue was surprised, he looked over at Mo Haozun and saw a young Heavenly Deity noble who was also surrounded by Creators around him.

The two monarch races, I am afraid Mu Suge can no longer retrieve his subordinates anymore.

Just when Zhong Yue was thinking this, space shuddered again and an extravagantly decorated carriage was heading toward the slave market. It emanated a unique force field that stagnated the surrounding air. As a result, the gods in the slave market were forced to step aside from its path and those who refused to were compressed into tiny beads by its pressuring force field.

Metamagnet Force Field? And a spatial force field?

Zhong Yue was shocked, he could see the two kinds of force fields that the carriage emanated. They were heavily related to the powers of metamagnet and space, manifesting their energies into force fields that could distort the space around it, almost making itself into a mini Heavens. The carriage was truly a stunning treasure.

From within, a young True Deity donned in luxurious clothing walked out. He said insouciantly, “The Dafan Clan is expecting some guests soon and has planned a grand bouquet as a welcoming ceremony. These demon gods will serve as the best raw materials to prepare for the foods needed for the feast. Brothers, please be kind and spare them to me.”

“Fan Bozhu of the Dafan Clan, you are also here in our Jinwu Clan?” A Golden Crow celestial walked out from the crowd and with a smile across his face, he said, “My dear guests from afar, you need not fight for the slaves anymore. The Jinwu Clan demands these demon gods. Fu Li, you are a frequent visitor to the Jinwu Clan, I suppose, you may just be able to seize this deal for the Jinwu Clan, can’t you?”

“Senior Martial Brother Jin Chufei, shouldn’t you leave some for our Dayu Clan?” Another young celestial surrounded by bodyguards stepped into the circle and said politely, “Senior martial brother, Third Prince Mu has dished himself onto the table, all the monarch races intend to have him. The Jinwu Clan isn’t going to reject us all by force, is it?”

“Senior Martial Brother Yu Tai, drop the excessive politeness.” Rays flashed across Jin Chufei’s eyes as he smiled, “Third Prince Mu had too much fun in his Zi Wei Galaxy, so much that he now thinks our ancient universe is also a playground his father owns, but it’s time that we teach the Zi Wei Galaxy lesson. Any single one of our six monarch races can easily batter him down to the ground, can’t we? So, let us in the Jinwu Clan do the hard work and when we put him in a cage, any guest will be welcome to visit his own solo zoo.”

Mu Suge was enraged, but he was forced to swallow it down his throat for the moment.

“Your Jinwu Clan is really forcing this, aren’t you?”

Suddenly, a peal of loud laughter came from behind the crowd and a True Deity was seen moving forward in big steps while laughing happily, “Although this is your territory and your sacred land, in the free market, only a fair trade matters most. You think the Jinwu Clan is wealthy enough to buy all of the demon gods, but I too, say our Tianyao Clan has the same wealth!”

Immediately, the Moyun Clan, Dafan Clan, Jitong Clan, Dayu Clan, all of the experts from the monarch races gave a cold sneer.

The reactions had clearly shown their discomfort with the Tianyao Clan’s arrival.

This was because the Tianyao Clan was a monster race instead of a celestial race. And to the celestials, the monsters and humans were the lowest positioned races despised by all. But because there was a monster monarch that rose in the history of the Tianyao Clan, it was also listed as one of the monarch races.

But even though the other five monarch races didn’t favor the Tianyao Clan, it was a great clan among the six monarch races and the other five would still treat it fairly well in public.

Jin Chufei answered politely, “Senior Martial Brother Yao Xingyue, what do you have in mind?”

The Tianyao monster laughed, “We of the six monarch races are all more than wealthy enough to buy the demon gods, it’d be endless if this evolves into a price war. If this is the case, why don’t we decide the winner through a show of strength? What do you all think, senior martial brothers?”

Ji Yunfei, Mo Haozun, Yu Tai, and the others smirked frigidly with auras faintly rising in their bodies.

Whereas Fan Bozhu immediately unleashed both his aura and inner core force field on the spot. He said in a placid voice, “Fine. The strongest one owns the demon slaves!”

Mo Haozun smiled, “A battle for superiority is bound to happen among us sooner or later, it is a good time to do it now!”

These nobles from the six monarch races were different in cultivation level, the strongest being the True Deities and the lowest being the Heavenly Deities. But even so, as the prominent experts of their respective races, they were no weaklings to be underestimated!

As their auras were unleashed and their battle will was let loose, even the ordinary Deity Overlords had to step aside.

All of a sudden, Zhong Yue cleared his throat and said, “Senior martial brothers, may I join too?”

The gods shot their eyes filled with curiosity at him. Jin Chufei frowned while Yu Tai laughed, “Brother, do you think your wealth is comparable to the six monarch races?”

The gods immediately plunged into laughters mockingly.

Zhong Yue replied with a gentle smile, “Some minor wealth like this is just nicely within my budget to spend. I too wish to buy these demon gods, I wonder if the Jinwu Clan is going to pressure on the prospects of your own slave market and not share the opportunity?”

Immediately, Mu Suge’s six light wheels revolved rapidly and countless treasures radiating in colorful lights flew out from his Yuan Shen secret realms. The treasures piled up into mountains. Some of them were as small as a bead and some bigger than a planet itself. The various treasures almost blinded the gods’ eyes!

Some with sharp eyes could even see a few treasures emanating with innate Qi within the mountains of treasures!

A Creator seneschal carrying such a great wealth in his Yuan Shen secret realms all the time, they couldn’t help but suspect this young man may also be a noble from one of the monarch races?

Jin Chufei asked, “Brother, with such wealth, you are probably from a great clan too but you do not look like anyone I know. Spare Chufei’s rudeness, but may I know where are you from?”

Zhong Yue smiled, “The politeness is unwarranted. Yi is my surname and Feng is my name. My race embraced a few monarchs in the past and we just happened to be moderately wealthy.”

Jin Chufei and the others searched through their memories and couldn’t match him to anyone they knew.

A few monarchs in the past? This Yi Feng’s race sure is some huge clan. But among the six monarch races, there seemed to no clans that had taken the surname of Yi, nor were there any in the filthy demon’s six monarch races. Could he be from one of the hidden monarch races?

There were great mysteries deeply veiled in the ancient universe, including the presence of some hidden races that were strong and powerful but waned due to myriad reasons. However, these hidden races shouldn’t be taken lightly as some of them held incredible power no weaker than the known monarch races.

This Yi Feng should be someone from one of the hidden monarch races , Rays flashed across Jin Chufei’s eyes as he thought, then he put up a smile and said, “If that’s the case, then we will duel and the final winner will own the demon slaves. I intend to test Brother Yi’s strength first; Brother Yi, please.”

As he challenged, Zhong Yue’s body abruptly flickered in their eyes and appeared right in front of Jin Chufei in an instant, shocking the latter to turn into his Innate Golden Crow form and flash out.

But suddenly, Zhong Yue had also turned into an Innate Golden Crow and pounced on Jin Chufei. Two Golden Crows could be seen fluttering in the air.

The two Golden Crows were each contained within a sun, and as they fought the suns were also clashing together.

In the change of a few bouts, one of the suns had extinguished in flames and fallen from the sky. It crashed to the ground and Jin Chufei was reverted back to his celestial form, blood could be seen trickling down the corner of his mouth.

The other sun slowly descended from the sky and suddenly, Zhong Yue fluttered his wings and pounced down at the Dafan Clan’s Fan Bozhu!

Fan Bozhu sneered, and his body shuddered for a split second as the space around him was distorted by the metamagnet force fields.

Zhong Yue was unfazed, he cast out his inner core’s innate force field and clashed head on with Fan Bozhu’s force fields, causing the three force fields to creak.

Zhong Yue stepped in midair and in nine steps, an irresistible aura brimmed out from his body. In just one punch, the space and metamagnet force fields were reduced into ashes and Fan Bozhu was sent flying in the sky with blood spurting out from his mouth!
