Chapter 522: Chapter 508 Lingwei and Yunchu, Heavenly Gate’s Shocking Change_3

Ten Thousand Feet of Dust is precisely where mortals cultivate their hearts, selecting through the mechanism of reincarnation those most noble individuals from the Mortal World to be reborn in Immortal Heaven as Heavenly People.

It evolved into the foundational plane for the Corpse Dissection Immortals and the natives’ Heavenly Dao and is also the firmest defensive line above the Heavenly Gate.

Of course.

If not for the Killing Tree, becoming one of the Heavenly People would naturally be the best reward Heavenly Dao offers for their good deeds in their past life.

But with the Killing Tree, everything has changed.

These invaders, able to affect and taint our own Heavenly Dao, possess the power to break the established cycles of Heavenly Dao and the trajectories of fate.

Heavenly People who were supposed to enjoy a disaster-free lifespan of one hundred and fifty years could suddenly meet untimely deaths if interfered with by the force of the "Killing Tree."

Just like Long Lingwei and Long Yunchu, whose parents died in battle at the South Heavenly Gate in this lifetime.

This is also the fate that Heavenly People must bear against the backdrop of a great war; no one can remain uninvolved.

"Emperor?"

At this moment, someone suddenly spoke up from behind Wang Yuan.

It was one of the Heavenly Realm Subordinates arranged by Yushiqie.

As a higher-ranking Cultivator on the same path, his mere presence, seamlessly blending into the wind and rain, had gone completely unnoticed by Long Lingwei and Long Yunchu.

Now, his address of "Emperor" instead of "Star Lord" indicated his awareness of Wang Yuan’s powers as the half-ruler of the Underworld.

The previous conversation might not have been a joke.

"Are these two members of my Heavenly Realm, in their past lives, truly friends of the Emperor?

I can transfer them away from the direct confrontation at the thirty-third layer’s South Heavenly Gate to another place.

It can be said that the East Heaven Gate, solely responsible for leading the people from the Lower Realm, is just as important as the South Heavenly Gate and absolutely must not be treated carelessly. It’s just perfect to let such capable and strong individuals gain experience, don’t you think..."

Having authority even before the faces of the Corpse Dissection Immortals like Yushiqie and Marquis of Wind, this Subordinate, of course, is no ordinary Servant.

To decide the deployment of two ordinary Heavenly People was merely a matter of a few words for him.

In every part of the world, Jianghu isn’t just about fighting and killing; it is also about human relations and worldly wisdom.

This group of Heavenly People might have strong moral and ethical values, but they certainly aren’t fools.

Why not do a favor for this promising Eastern Ghost Emperor?

After all, unless one becomes a Corpse Dissection Immortal, who doesn’t eventually fall under the governance of Old Master Wang?

Whether they’re your people or his, sooner or later, they’ll all be ghosts under Old Master Wang!

"Hmm, thanks for the kind offer, but no need to trouble yourself. I have my own plans for them."

Just as if the Corpse Dissection Immortals had never existed and the plan to completely eradicate all the Weirdness from the Mortal World was in full swing.

Compassion cannot be consumed for sustenance. Only by sustaining a low-intensity war at great cost can we continuously cultivate reserve forces to replenish the frontlines of the Heavenly Gate.

Wang Yuan, the rapidly developing new Sage, is a direct beneficiary of this major policy guideline.

The same principle applies to the siblings Long Yunchu and Long Lingwei.

Keeping them away from the South Heavenly Gate and the war with Weirdness is also to keep them away from opportunities for rapid promotion.

Ending a life in mediocrity, what’s the difference between that and Breeding a pair of pets?

It is the truest form of selfishness to impose one’s will on loved ones in the name of "for your own good."

Wang Yuan would never do such a thing, neither to his parents nor to his future children.

Anyway, he himself was due to ascend and be stationed at the South Heavenly Gate this time, so he might as well personally take care of them.

But just as Wang Yuan was sending a message to Great Fate to help arrange a suitable defense zone for himself,

Ding! Ding! Ding!...

Suddenly, alarm bells thundered through the sky.

The ground beneath also trembled ever so slightly.

"This time it’s not an internal strife among the Heavenly Officials, the thirty-three heavens are launching an assault on the Heavenly Gate!"

Wang Yuan’s expression changed in an instant, and with no time to say goodbye to Yushiqie and Marquis of Wind, he burst into an Escape Light, soaring into the sky.

After leaping back to the Great Red Heaven Realm, he immediately dashed towards the South Heavenly Gate, now engulfed in a blaze.

There, the Military Aura surged towards the heavens, and war cries shook the skies.

But at this moment, what concerned him most was not the Heavenly Gate protected by three Corpse Dissection Immortals but the Lower Realm, which seemed to be on the verge of a storm...

According to the battle regulations given by Great Fate, once a great war begins here, formations will be activated to temporarily seal off the Heavenly Gate.

Not to mention that it was indeed impossible to travel through the Heavenly Gate, even if it were possible, returning to the Mortal World during warfare would certainly be deemed a grave crime of desertion!

This also meant that once there was trouble, Wang Yuan would not be able to return to support the Lower Realm for quite some time.

"Who exactly has gone mad this time?

I hope the Lower Realm will not encounter any trouble during this war."

But as he followed Great Fate’s directions over the ramparts and saw clearly that the opposing Heavenly Realm was... the West King Holy Mother’s second heaven, "Tai Ming Yu Wan Heaven,"

a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

"This seems to be no coincidence!"
