The words of Long Yi greatly startled Ou Yala. The patriarch and elders of the Winged Clan flew into a rage, and the people standing behind Long Yi burst into laughter while covering their mouth. They knew him too well. He would never stop until people died of shock. He enjoyed the feeling of messing with other people.
“You… you disgraceful stinking brat! You actually dare to blaspheme the Wind God. Seems like you don’t feel like leaving this place alive…” The complexion of the Winged Clan patriarch become ghastly pale, and he furiously said while pointing at Long Yi
“Of course I want to leave this place. I would definitely live a good life after leaving this place! However, I am afraid that you are the ones who won’t be able to leave this room alive.” The corner of Long Yi’s mouth rose but a wisp of killing intent flashed through his black pupils.
The Winged Clan patriarch could no longer swallow his anger. In an instant, he erected a cyan colored protective screen as he complacently laughed at Long Yi, “We are leaving. I hope that all of you can enjoy the sumptuous meal the Winged Clan prepared.”
The moment the Winged Clan patriarch finished speaking, a shadow appeared behind him. A qi blade made up of true qi flew towards his neck at lightning speed.
Sensing the attack, the Winged Clan patriarch dodged without breaking a sweat. He may be old, but that didn’t affect his abilities at all. He was still an extremely powerful individual.
Hiss, a sound of torn skin and gasping flesh resounded. Although the Winged Clan patriarch had avoided the attack, a long cut appeared on his back.
“You… how can it be?” the Winged Clan patriarch turned away and managed to catch a glimpse of Long Yi’s afterimage. It slowly disappeared under his gaze as Long Yi appeared right before his eyes.
“I have already said that the people who are going to die here won’t be in my group.” Long Yi smiled and used Great Cosmos Shift. In a flash, his speed reached the extreme. The combination of magic douqi and internal force increased his attack power by another level. The Winged Clan patriarch fought back hastily but the feathers of his wings were unable to touch Long Yi in the slightest, the all flew around under the influence of Long Yi’s magic douqi.
Seeing as their patriarch was in trouble, Ou Yala and the other elders finally came back to their senses. The managed to insert themselves into the fight as they helped the Winged Clan patriarch to narrowly avoid death.
“All of you, stall him for a moment. I’ll leave the cave and unseal it so all of us can leave this place.” the Winged Clan patriarch hastily said as threw out a scroll with a flick of his hands. In an instant, a miniature transmission magic array appeared on the ground as the Winged Clan patriarch instantly stepped into it.
“Space Restriction.” When the figure of Winged Clan’s patriarch was disappearing, a chilly voice suddenly resounded within the cave. Everything seemed to come to a standstill, and the figure of the disappearing patriarch appeared again with a horrified expression plastered on his face. Wushuang who was in the air stared at him with a cold gaze.
Pengpeng, Long Yi released internal force from his entire body as he shook off everyone who was tying him down with their attacks. With a wave of his hand, the three god-beasts appeared. Even without command from Long Yi, they began attacking the members of the Winged Clan.
Under the Qilin Holy Fire casted by the Fire Qilin and lightning strikes coming from the Violent Lightning Beast, the Winged Clan patriarch didn’t have time to dodge. The patriarch was instantly turned to dust as he disintegrated. It was just like the time when Long Yi had disintegrated and passed through the world, however, Long Yi didn’t know if the patriarch was lucky enough to pass through space and time in order to be reborn.
“Well, the hindering fly is finally dead. I think that we can have a proper discussion now. Shaman Ou Yala and the elders, what do you guys think?” Long Yi said while looking at the stupefied members of the Winged Clan. Reaching out to grab a chair which only had two legs remaining, Long Yi sat down in the middle of the room without a care.
“You…… you killed our patriarch……” Ou Yala said with her voice trembling while pointing at Long Yi.
“No, how can I, such a kind-hearted person that couldn’t bear to even trample an ant to death, kill a person? Your patriarch merely had the honor of receiving the summon of the Wind God and he went over to the divine realm.” Long Yi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
“You…… you……” Ou Yala was speechless when she heard what Long Yo said. Suddenly, she remembered the magical beasts which killed the Winged God patriarch. Turning around, she sized the three beasts up. As she stared at the three beasts, three names appeared in her mind… These weren’t magical beasts, these were god-beasts! Ou Yala instantly cried out in alarm, “Fire Qilin, Violent Lightning Beast and Holy Light Beast! How in the world is this possible?”
“What do you mean impossible? I already told you that the Wind God is my woman, but none of you guys believed me.” Long Yi laughed as he enjoyed Bertha’s massage on his shoulders.
Ou Yala and the elders stared at Long Yi in a daze. Originally, they thought that whatever Long Yi said was purely sheer nonsense. However, their beliefs were shaken when they saw the three god-beasts Long Yi had summoned. These were god-beasts under the command of the main gods. How was it possible for them to submit to Long Yi, this human? It was even more incredulous for them to become his magic pet.
“Since you guys seem like you have no idea what is going on, I shall explain it to you guys. Don’t you guys already know that the Divine Realm has seven main gods?” Long Yi leaned back and coincidentally bumped into Bertha’s chest. He immediately felt a soft and elastic feeling sticking to his back.
Bertha’s beautiful face flushed red in an instant but she didn’t push Long Yi away. Instead, she gave up massaging Long Yi’s shoulders and started massaging Long Yi’s head. His head was comfortably nestled in the middle of those two soft bouncy mounds of flesh and Long Yi relaxed his entire body.
When Ou Yala and the Winged Clan elders heard Long Yi’s question, they simultaneously nodded their heads. As for Wushuang and the rest, they pricked up their ears as they wanted to listen to what nonsense Long Yi would cook up.
“As a matter of fact, among the seven main gods, the Lightning God and Wind God were lovers. They were deeply in love with each other, until one day, the Fire God came in between them and expressed her love for the Lightning God. Since the Lightning God was a romantic person, he naturally wanted to possess both beauties. However, both the Wind God and the Fire God were main gods in the Divine Realm! How could they share the same man? As such, they began fighting over the Lightning God to see who would be the one to obtain the love of the Lightning God. With waves surging forth, even fowls and dogs of the Divine Realm were not left in peace. In the end, a catastrophe struck the world.” Long Yi shook his head and sighed as he displayed a look of reminiscence on his face.
“What led to their disaster?” Ou Yala couldn’t help but ask when she saw that Long Yi wasn’t continuing his story.
“That…… that is the secret of the Divine World, it shouldn’t be spoken of casually. You only need to know that they made a serious mistake. Later, Tianfa [1] of the Divine Realm punished them. Tianfa is the control mechanism of the Divine Realm. After Tianfa dished out punishment to both the Wind God and the Fire God, the infatuated Lightning God tried his best to lessen the punishment bestowed onto both the gods. His explanation was that everything that happened was his fault. As a result, the divine body of the Lightning God was annihilated and his soul was banished to this Mortal Realm to suffer by Tianfa as a punishment. He must experience 49 paths of difficulty to reconstruct his divine body.” Long Yi continued and the women behind him listened to him with great interest.
The expression of Ou Yala changed as she said, “You mean to say you are the reincarnation of the Lightning God whose divine body is annihilated by Tianfa?”
“Miss Shaman, you are such a genius. You definitely deserve to be called the loyal believer of the Wind God. You were able to guess my secret in an instant.” Long Yi said with a smile.
“Young Master Ximen, you said that you are the Lightning God. Do you have any evidence to back your words up?” Although the elders of the Winged Clan were already 70% convinced by Long Yi’s story, they didn’t fully trust everything Long Yi said.
“Are these god-beasts in front of your face not enough evidence?” Long Yi said with a frown.
“Does Young Master Ximen have any other evidence other than the god-beasts?” Another elder of Winged Clan asked.
“Of course, I have! Look carefully.” Long Yi shouted with a solemn expression on his face and his body suddenly emitted silverish purple radiance. If he didn’t have the idea of subduing the Winged Clan, he wouldn’t have bothered to spend so much energy convincing them.
————
Everyone had their eyes wide open. Looking at Long Yi, he started floating in the air above the chair he sat in. Moreover, his body was surrounded by a silverish purple radiance as he truly resembled the Lightning God.
Long Yi gave a shout and at the space between his eyebrows, a strange vortex appeared where strong purple radiance was flashing about. The Lightning God spirit tablet drilled out from the space between his eyes as it slowly spun in the air.
Bang, Ou Yala and the elders of the Winged Clan simultaneously fell to their knees. Currently, they no longer had any doubts in their heart. When they thought about how they had been making things difficult for the Lightning God just a moment ago, cold sweat continuously flowed down from their forehead. When they thought about how this was the lover of the Wind God, the god which they believed in, they almost fainted.
Long Yi took back the Lightning God spirit tablet and dispersed his aura. Sitting down on his former chair with only two legs remaining, he enjoyed the warm fragrant jade.
“All of you can rise. The current me has yet to achieve the godhood I had in the past. I have yet to completely crash my way through those 49 paths of difficulty. Are you all willing to help me?” A trace of wicked smile appeared on Long Yi’s face as he said these words. Swindling people was so wonderful. It was exceptionally wonderful when the people he was cheating had complete faith in whatever he was saying. There was no wonder there were so many divine scoundrels in the world.
“The commands of the Lightning God, none will dare to disobey. Even if we have to give up all our possessions, we will not hesitate to do so.” One elder of the Winged Clan hurriedly said. He wasn’t stupid, this was a huge opportunity for the Winged Clan. If the Winged Clan was able to form good relations with a God, wouldn’t they be able to live unhindered in the entire Blue Waves Continent? Moreover, now, the Lightning God was in the midst of misfortune. Sending charcoals in snowy weather was far more effective than adding a flower to the brocade. This was the perfect opportunity to get closer to a god.
Long Yi smiled and said, “Very well, but don’t call me Lightning God. From now on, all of you can call me Young Master.”
“Yes, Young Master.” Elders of Winged Clan said in unison as Ou Yala hesitated.
“Miss Shaman, is there any problem?” Long Yi raised his eyebrows and asked.
“No, but what about the patriarch?” Ou Yalal gritted her teeth and said.
“Patriarch? Didn’t I just tell you where the patriarch went? He had the honor of being summoned by the Wind God and was transported to the Divine Realm. From now on, you shall be the patriarch of the Winged Clan. Don’t say that you can’t handle the small task of being the Winged Clan patriarch.” Long Yi said with indifference. He knew that as long as Ou Yala and these elders of the Winged Clan didn’t cooperate, this matter wouldn’t be resolved easily.
“We sincerely heed the instructions of Young Master.” The elders of the Winged Clan said in unison. At the same time, they simultaneously warned Ou Yala with their eyes, telling her to not be ignorant.
Ou Yala gritted her teeth and after agreeing respectfully to Long Yi’s order, she added, “I wonder what our Winged Clan should do to help Young Master?”
“You should know the current situation the Blue Waves Continent is in. This is my biggest problem at the moment. All you have to do is to help my Ximen Clan unify the entire Blue Waves Continent. If we are able to do that, there would be no boundaries between nations and there would no longer be wars.” Long Yi said with prestige and his black pupils shined. He had already thought of the best move for the Winged Clan in order to achieve the best results.
