Heaven Slaying Blade

Chu Chu glanced at Chu Mo, her face slightly shy: "Brother, don't talk about me, tell me about you and your wives. Tell me their names, I'll see if I know them?"

Chu Mo knew girls were shy, so he didn't continue teasing her and said: "You have two sisters-in-law, one is named Qi Xiaoyu from the Elf Clan, and the other is Shui Yiyi, the heiress of the Shui Family in the Yanhuang Domain."

"Not bad, there's even one from the Elf Clan! Hmm, I've heard about this race, they're all extremely proud and never intermarry with outsiders. Qi Xiaoyu... this name, I haven't heard of. I wouldn't dare say for certain that she doesn't exist, but for a woman who can catch my brother's eye, she can't be too weak. Maybe she's an anomaly too." Chu Chu said with a smile: "As for the Shui Family in the Yanhuang Domain... the Shui Family has a good relationship with our Chu Family, but I... have never heard of someone named Shui Yiyi."

"Could it be that the names of the two great universes are different?" Chu Mo looked at Chu Chu: "Is there such a possibility?"

Chu Chu shook her head and said: "Probably not, according to Luo Feihong's kind of saying, it's a phenomenon generated by a combination of factors such as reincarnation, fate, and cause and effect. So the two sisters-in-law that brother found for me, maybe they are anomalies."

Chu Mo smiled bitterly: "What anomaly or not, as long as I can find them, it's fine."

Chu Chu softly comforted: "Brother, don't worry, good people will have heaven on their side. I always feel that the other party may not really have huge malice when they led brother into this situation. Because if they wanted to kill brother, brother should have been powerless to resist. Whether it was before or now, it should always be like this."

Chu Mo agreed with Chu Chu's view; here, there might indeed be a situation he couldn't understand. But whether it's good or bad, this feeling of being a pawn in someone else's game isn't very enjoyable.

Just like Zi Dao, Ouyang Fei, and the Chu Chu in front of him. They refuse to cut off their divine status fundamentally because they don't want to implicate themselves. It's not because they really don't want to cut off their status.

Even if they all trust Chu Mo greatly, knowing that they won't be in any danger with him holding the Edict of the Investiture of the Gods, they ultimately dislike the divine status in their minds.

Chu Mo and Chu Chu continued discussing many experiences from their childhoods.

Compared to Chu Mo's complex and rough experiences, Chu Chu's experiences were really much simpler.

"From young to old, wherever I went, I was truly adored. When I was in the Yanhuang Domain, I was the princess of the Chu Family, almost everyone doted on me and surrounded me. So, as for battle experience, I can't say I don't have any, but it's really weak."

"Later, when I entered the Immortal Domain of Luotian, those people in the Imperial Clan also doted on me a lot, Brother Ji Qi, Prince Ji... They were very kind to me, as were my grandfather and uncle, which goes without saying."

Upon hearing the familiar names of Ji Qi and Prince Ji, Chu Mo felt a very mysterious feeling. Clearly, they were people he was familiar with, yet they appeared in another universe.

"There were many misunderstandings between me and Prince Ji; he tried to kill me several times..." Chu Mo laughed as he talked about some old grievances with Prince Ji.

Chu Chu listened in shock and exclaimed she found it hard to imagine.

Chu Chu said: "It seems that although the two universes are broadly similar, there are great differences in details. My combat power was truly honed in the Trial Field. At that time, I went in quietly, incognito, and otherwise, everyone would spoil me, indulge me, and give in to me. But one day I will go to an unfamiliar environment, one day no one will pamper me, what will I do then?"

Chu Mo nodded, he understood Chu Chu's mentality well.

Chu Chu said: "I deliberately made myself look unattractive and went into the Trial Field, where I spent five years and directly became first on the Heavenly Ranking! Hehe... Am I impressive?"

"Impressive!" Chu Mo said seriously, "Brother took one or two years!"

"..." Chu Chu rolled her eyes and couldn't be bothered to deal with her somewhat improper brother. She continued: "Later, I ignored my father's and mother's advice and entered the ancient battlefield... It was there that I truly understood what cruelty means, what slaughter means. It turned out, the Trial Field, known as the genius meat grinder, truly isn't much. The ancient battlefield is the true kill zone. Trillions of beings enter, and only fifty can survive. Heh, what an irony, the way of the Great Dao."

Chu Mo smiled bitterly: "The Great Dao reaches fifty, Heaven's cycles are forty-nine, humans escape as one..."

"Yes, the person who set up the situation is truly frightening, using every conceivable means. Their methods are so advanced, it's unimaginable. I always feel that this matter is inseparable from several major ancient clans in the Tunnel. Today they claim innocence, saying there are gaps in the Tunnel's history. But in my view, the one who benefits the most has the biggest suspicion!" Chu Chu said.

"I think so too, but really, it's too difficult to figure this out. These several major ancient clans in the Tunnel aren't that easy to shake." Chu Mo said.

"Actually, not necessarily. Did you see Luo Feihong? He's the most outstanding Heavenly Genius of the younger generation in the Luoshui Family. But remember that shout he gave before?" Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo and asked.

Chu Mo thought about it, then couldn't help but laugh and said: "He was cursing at the time, saying Luoshui Family members are bastards..."

"Don't you find it strange?" Chu Chu laughed.

"A bit strange, this young man is quite fierce, he even curses himself when he's mad." Chu Mo said truthfully.

"..." Chu Chu was speechless, scolded and said: "Not that, I mean, can't brother see that most of the younger generation of these ancient clans don't have a strong sense of identification with this Investiture of the Gods thing."

Chu Mo sighed: "But you have to understand, silly sister, in the end they will grow up, and they are ultimately the beneficiaries. No one will easily break their own rice bowl."

"There will be." Chu Chu said confidently: "As far as I know, among the younger generation of the entire Luoshui Family, at least half of the outstanding individuals openly supported Zi Dao and Ouyang Fei's escape, otherwise how do you think they escaped so smoothly? If everyone had taken it seriously, they would have had no way to escape! Yes, you heard correctly, it's half, and it's open support!"

"How could it be like this?" Chu Mo was somewhat surprised.

"Firstly, the beings on the Investiture of the Gods are too powerful. In front of these beings, these ancient clan offspring feel they have little ability and are powerless. For proud beings, this feeling is hard to endure. Particularly ironic is that such powerful beings are bound by someone! Similar sentiments prevail among cultivators. After reaching a certain state, the importance placed on freedom surpasses numerous benefits. This is why slaves are almost unseen in our universe."

"Secondly, the most important function of the beings on the Investiture of the Gods for these ancient clans is to use them to fend off the invading beings from the Gray Land. Young people, as you know, are mostly hot-blooded. They dislike anything that forces them onto the battlefield. In their eyes, true heroes are those who willingly choose to die bravely without any coercion. So they sympathize with the beings on the Investiture of the Gods, though this isn't the main point."

Chu Chu gave a cold smile: "The key point is, the Edict of the Investiture of the Gods... is limited, it can only be held by a few. And then these beings on the Investiture of the Gods are a very strong force. Many actually want to recruit some of these talents. But it's impossible... because they're firmly in hands with the Edict of the Investiture of the Gods. Perhaps, our batch is the only exception! Because the bastard who held the Edict died! I had suspected earlier if Zi Dao and the others had conveniently taken the Edict. But the Luoshui Family strongly denied it. Now it's finally confirmed that it's the case."

Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo: "Considering these reasons, most of the younger generation among both the Luoshui Family and other ancient clans don't like the Investiture of the Gods."

Chu Mo recalled Guochang and Gu Bingbing's remarks, again observed Luo Feihong's stance, and began believing that events might indeed be as Chu Chu described. If so, perhaps achieving that goal might truly be hopeful.

Chu Chu continued: "Additionally, these ancient clans are quite lenient towards the younger generation independently establishing their own forces. They don't deliberately suppress because it's akin to cultivating an extensive network. Ideally, by the end, the entire forest is theirs! Otherwise, if left as a lone tree, no matter how mighty, how much could it really withstand the wind and rain?"

Chu Mo nodded.

"Therefore, there is significant potential here. Brother, we should regroup, rally some people, and form a force! I've actually long had this thought. Push Luo Feihong to the forefront, let him lead. This force should first unify the Heavenly Geniuses among these ancient clans' younger generations. Find those who are like-minded. Then, based on the beings from the Investiture of the Gods, cut off their divine status. We don't demand loyalty; even if a third is loyal, our force would be quite intimidating!" Chu Chu spoke as if imagining something amusing, and with a smile, she said: "At that point, the ancient clans will surely go insane, they will be furious, wishing to suppress us, then they'll realize suppressing us equates to suppressing their own family members!"

Chu Chu looked at Chu Mo excitedly and said: "So in the end, there's only one possibility! That is... these ancient clans will have to accept the existence and rise of this force, whether they want to or not! Then, brother will control everything from the shadows without needing to appear. By then, we can truly stir up a storm!"
