Chapter 892 Unexpected Call
"Hehe~! Any words at all? You all look like you've seen a ghost." Kali's teasing tone cut through the atmosphere.
She, Cain, and Luo Na usually floated next to Xuegang's group. They all were acting as if they hadn't just committed the gravest sin across the entire Soul God World. That kind of confidence is admittedly admirable.
But the reality of the situation was sinking in for the supreme geniuses.
There was a tremble in Xuegang's voice as she said, "You-you all...now you have really done it. If you were to let them go, it could've been different. But certainly now, Grand Celestial Sword, Supreme Soul Void, and Divine Frost Time will want your heads. Even those top three Inner Ridge powers will not let you off."
Many others in this same situation would be utterly fearing for their lives. Xuegang's gang could for sure say they would be trembling beneath the sheer pressure of offending numerous powerful sects all at once.
Especially since it was sects standing at the very top of the entire Soul God World!
The concern they expected to see on Cain's group faces simply did not happen. Calmness never left their bodies.
"Is that so? Would anything have changed even if we did let them off?" Cain lightly chuckled.
"That's..." Xuegang's group opened their mouths to speak but suddenly paused. His words continually swirled in their heads.
Luo Na, without any worries at all took the time to say, "Their intention to kill us was already intense due to the Emperor Of Gods Manual. Even if were to spare them, they will not let us go due to the manual. No matter what method they would use, everything would end with us getting chased by True Divinities. This is also not taking into account that the one who called the hit on us would see the failure and most likely spread the word across the entire Soul Core Region. Our fates were sealed no matter the path we chose."
Nobody in Xuegang's group could refute her words. The only possible way to lessen the time would be if they somehow managed to enslave the entire supreme genius groups. But not even a Demi-God can completely enslave a Holy King soul, much less supreme geniuses equal to half-step Heavenly Venerates.
The Blood Shadow organization had truly marked Cain, Kali, and Luo Na for death the moment the hit for them was made.
"Uhm...is-is there any way we can help?" Yang Yimu asked in a shaky voice.
She wanted to sound confident that they could actually provide some sort of aid. But all of them knew it was practically a fool's dream for one top sect to resist two other top sects. Much less three at the same time along with the top three of the Inner Ridge.
The trio also clearly understood this. Kali causally laughed as she said, "Appreciate the loyalty, but we all damn well know it's impossible for even your sect to resist everyone. Don't worry. You can avoid our troublesome situation since we already have a plan coming up."
"A plan?" Xuegang curiously questioned. It was only now that she and the others noticed that Cain had already taken out a contact ring.
Cain was on the line with Yan Kui at this moment. He knew he had to act fast so he gave a brief rundown of the situation.
Afterward, he directly asked, 'A family like yours must have some sort of abandoned place we can use for a temporary hideout. At least until we can find a way to sneak into the core region.'
'Ah. Actually, instead of just hiding out. My family does have an instant teleportation array that can drop you into some random place in the core region. We can use this. But we'll need to act first. I fear that the storm of your actions will shake the entire Soul God World very soon.'
'Right. And make sure you inform the Elders so can they take the appropriate moves when everything comes to its head.' Cain ordered and ended the call.
The plan was already set in motion. Cain faintly smiled at Xuegang's group as he said, "We have a place to be now. It will most likely be years before we see each other again. By that time, it will be quite an interesting meeting."
"You..." Xuegang, Yang Yimu, Song Shen, and Zhen Meng opened and closed their mouths.
Their talents were grossly high. But it was honestly hard to see them alive with the bearing of True Divinites now breathing on their necks. There was one saying everyone across the entire Soul God World knows.
Offending any True Divinity is the direct road to death!
Simply contending against Heavenly Venerate prowess is nowhere near enough to survive.
However, in the end, the only thing Xuegang could do was just pray for their survival. Their hands were completely tied.
"Haah...so it seems it's farewell for now. Here. If you three somehow managed to resist everyone and live in the end, you can contact us for any help at all. I pray for all of your success." As Xuegang spoke, she tossed over her direct contact rings.
The trio caught the contact rings with their same calm stride. With one last nod, Cain, Kali, and Luo Na immediately took to the sky.
The trio was out of sight in mere seconds.
Xuegang, Song Shen, Yang Simu, and Zhen Meng took one last deep sigh before flying out in the opposite direction. The events of today would never be able to leave their minds.
In the opposite direction, even when they were completely alone, Cain, Kali, and Luo Na still carried their strong, calm confidence. They weren't even putting up a front for Xuegang's group.
Kali was always ready to take on any kind of danger. But she knew they had to plan out their next moves very carefully. She asked, "So? You already contracted some brilliant plan with that girl, right?"
"Mn. We can't afford to mess up now. Any slight mistake can have us experience a fate worse than death." Cain seriously spoke, his nerves genuinely at their most extreme.
This may be the first time he actually felt so much nervousness coursing through his mind.
Neither Luo Na nor Kali could escape this feeling of dread as well. One of their greatest hurdles was now right in front of them. It was a time to either fly high into the heavens or sink into the depths of the ocean.
...
Numerous miles away. Deep within the Lightning-Destruction Sect.
lightsnοvεl.cοm Inside a luxurious chamber glittering with soothing divine lights, two maidens were in the middle of a causal conversation.
The heaven-defying maidens were Yan Kui and King Yui.
For a while now, all had seemed normal. That was until a contact ring gleamed from Yan Kui's body.
The call she received instantly changed her mood. An unprecedented, focused expression slipped onto Yan Kui's face. Only seconds passed when Yan Kui got off the call, a thoughtful look crossed her face.
"Eh? Sister Yan?" King Yui worriedly called out. Joy, calmness, and serious determination were what she had seen from Yan Kui.
Never before had she seen such a wistful look on Yan Kui's beautiful face. It was as if for a moment, she looked to be facing the greatest challenge that she had ever faced before.
"Mn. Oh, apologies sister Yui. There is something I need to do for our special geniuses." Yan Kui barely looked at King Yui when speaking.
Her mind was too focused, so she didn't even pay that much attention to what she was even saying. With a step glimmering a Dao light that broke apart space Yan Kui vanished into the void space.
"This..." King Yui faintly clenched her palms.
A sudden bead of sweat rolled down her cute face. She turned instantly worried. But it was not for the reason most across the entire sect would expect.
Instead of going somewhere else in her faction to find help or thinking about what she could do, King Yui took out a special contact ring. A contact ring that would shock even the elders.
When her soul energy linked within, the call was picked up in only mere moments.
'Mn? Yui? You know it's dangerous to just randomly call, so this better be good.'
The voice that was speaking was none other than the other Supreme Emperor genius dominating the sect, Emperor Hian!
Indeed, one of whom many others consider Empress Kui's mortal enemy, someone whom Yan Kui herself dislikes, was directly speaking to one of her close friends! n(/o--v)/e-)l-(b()I((n
Yan Kui cut directly to the chase. 'Hian, I can already feel something is going on. Never before I have seen Kui's expression shift so drastically. All she said was that something about the trio was occurring. And as far as I can gather from her, the trio were on this expedition with Empress Soaring Roc.'
'Oh? This is quite urgent.' On the other side of the line, Emperor Hian was calmly cultivating in his secluded chamber.
This sudden news awoke him out of his cultivation trance.
