Chapter 719: Chapter 719: Even Shi Yaoguang Is Ashamed of It

"Boom——"

After a dull roar of thunder.

Zhao Muze was still kneeling in the same spot.

Not even a hair on his head was out of place.

Heavenly Dao: "..."

Shi Yaoguang: "..."

Quan Jinbei: "..."

Facing the disdainful and questioning gaze of Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei, Heavenly Dao felt somewhat choked up.

"A misstep!" he forcefully argued on behalf of himself, "It’s just a minor blunder, that’s all. It’s very normal, everyone has moments like these."

Hearing this, Shi Yaoguang reluctantly admitted he was right.

"Then do it again."

Heavenly Dao: "..."

He hemmed and hawed for a moment, his face wearing a look of righteous indignation, "I think there’s no need, right? Haven’t I already proven my attitude sufficiently?"

He did, after all, bring down heavenly thunder.

However.

Thunder that was completely useless might as well not have come down at all.

Shi Yaoguang found it simply embarrassing.

Heavenly Dao: "..."

Heavenly Dao felt wronged as well.

Recently, he had really been sulking to death.

Originally, he had just created a world obsessed with romance.

A romance-obsessed world is great, isn’t it? With the sweet love of a male and female protagonist, he could absorb the influence contributed by humans.

But what happened?

Shi Yaoguang, this cannon fodder sent to deliver vegetables to the female protagonist, suddenly turned the tables.

Literally stepped over the female protagonist.

Just how terrible he felt, one can only imagine.

But she still wasn’t satisfied.

She just kept making a spectacle of herself.

Not only did she tear apart his male and female protagonists, she also devoured an avatar split from his own essence!

Is this something a person does?

If it were anyone else, knowing they had provoked Heavenly Dao, they would immediately atone with their death—that would be the normal course of action.

Of course, ordinary people wouldn’t even have the chance to offend Heavenly Dao, let alone willingly face execution.

Even though these cannot be conflated, Heavenly Dao still felt annoyed.

Why on earth?

Just because Shi Yaoguang is awesome,

Just because Shi Yaoguang is special?

She was given face!

Not giving it anymore!

He just wanted to let her know that she is no different from anyone else!

Heavenly Dao thought highly of himself, but alas, he simply couldn’t achieve this.

To be unable to do so was one thing, but instead, he’s...

In short, the degree of his misery was beyond words!

He had thought that encountering Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei, such an odd couple, would be the biggest crisis of his life as Heavenly Dao.

Who would have thought, the Divine Sense he left casually behind would actually catch a scum stealing the fortune of Heavenly Dao!

Alright, although it wasn’t the Divine Sense of Heavenly Dao who caught him, Heavenly Dao’s Divine Sense noticed it, didn’t it?

Originally thinking, unable to deal with Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei, wouldn’t it be justifiable to take care of this little thief who was stealing his fortune?

Unexpectedly.

This little thief also had a significant backing.

Although he didn’t know where this little thief got the nerve from,

But...

Heavenly Dao was just a coward.

Heavenly Dao knew he shouldn’t be like this.

But he was helpless.

"Heavenly Dao?" Shi Yaoguang called out to him as Heavenly Dao was lost in his confusion.

Heavenly Dao became even more withdrawn.

Heavenly Dao didn’t want to speak.

Yet Shi Yaoguang, lacking any sense of awareness, just opened her mouth to rush him.

"Heavenly Dao, are you up to it or not? Weren’t you going to punish him? Get on with it!"

Although Heavenly Dao detested Shi Yaoguang to death inside, he couldn’t show it on his face and even made a gesture with his eyes towards Shi Yaoguang.

Unfortunately, Shi Yaoguang ignored him.

He could only look towards Quan Jinbei, hoping to reach a consensus with him.

Unfortunately, Quan Jinbei was on Shi Yaoguang’s side and, seeing Shi Yaoguang ignoring Heavenly Dao, he also paid no heed.

Heavenly Dao became even more withdrawn.

This cannon fodder is truly too troublesome to deal with.

He had just thought this when he suddenly realized something.

No.

That’s not right.

Shi Yaoguang is no longer cannon fodder.

Before the Heavenly Dao’s true form fell into slumber, Shi Yaoguang had deceived Quan Sicheng’s affections.

And then...

She had taken over Quan Sicheng’s role as the male lead of the world, becoming the female lead instead.

Now, as the female lead of the world, Quan Jinbei would be the male lead.

It must be said, even if standing on opposing sides, Heavenly Dao didn’t dare to provoke Shi Yaoguang anymore.

After all, she was now his patron, his source of sustenance.

Thinking of this, Heavenly Dao felt even more aggrieved.

He was truly too miserable.

He swore, there was absolutely no Heavenly Dao more miserable than him in this world.

Alright, even if not as Heavenly Dao, he was still the most miserable one.

The three people standing before him now, he couldn’t afford to provoke any of them.

And here he was talking about being the ruler of the world.

Wouldn’t it be more straightforward to say he was just an underling to these three?

While Heavenly Dao was wallowing in self-despair, Zhao Muze finally came to his senses as well.

It seemed he might not have to die after all.

Because...

Heavenly Dao simply couldn’t deal with him.

Looking at how angry Heavenly Dao was just now, it was clear he had no intention of letting him off the hook.

But, he wasn’t affected at all.

This was enough to prove how formidable his current body was.

As for Heavenly Dao, he simply had no way to harm him.

Realizing this, Zhao Muze no longer continued to kneel.

He wasn’t one who naturally enjoyed kneeling.

If he could stand, naturally he would stand tall and upright.

The self-absorbed Heavenly Dao, seeing Zhao Muze’s action, almost had another heart attack.

He, as Heavenly Dao, was really too aggrieved.

How had he come to be so pathetic?

As Heavenly Dao, he didn’t even have the most basic respect! How was he supposed to live like this?

How aggrieved Heavenly Dao felt, Zhao Muze had no idea.

All he knew was that even the most powerful Heavenly Dao couldn’t touch him.

Doesn’t that mean his wish to unify the world could soon be realized?

Thinking of scenes of tribute from all nations, he couldn’t help but reveal a smug smile.

If it weren’t for the necessity of borrowing the Little Prince’s fate, he wouldn’t want to bother helping restore Zhao Country at all.

But it didn’t matter.

Even if it meant restoring Zhao Country, in the end, he would be the one to enjoy it.

The State Preceptor had come to fully accept his identity as Zhao Muze, replacing the Prince of Zhao Country.

Now, he was Zhao Muze.

The previous Zhao Muze had long perished.

Even his sacrificed soul had reincarnated.

Upon thinking this far, he paused suddenly.

It seemed something was not quite right.

Indeed...

Logically speaking, after being sacrificed to Heavenly Dao, the Little Prince should have been dead.

Even if he hadn’t died instantly, after a thousand years, he should not still be alive.

Originally, Zhao Muze thought that having sacrificed the Little Prince’s soul, he himself should be extremely unlucky and weak.

But he had overlooked one point.

The souls of ordinary people are not that powerful.

Realizing this, Zhao Muze felt a thud in his heart.

But soon, he brainwashed himself again.

It was probably just his own overthinking.

Zhao Muze was just an ordinary prince after all.

Other than having a slightly purer bloodline, there was nothing outstanding about him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been successfully sealed and his soul sacrificed by him.

With this thought, Zhao Muze felt reassured.

His gaze toward Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei carried a bit more contempt.

Gracious gentlemen — it was all an illusion.

Or rather, that was merely how the Little Prince of Zhao Country had originally appeared.

The fact that the State Preceptor could even think of restoring Zhao Country was enough to prove that he was a man of great ambition.
