Chapter 190 - End Of An Era

Chapter 190: End Of An Era

A huge fire was burning an entire era.

Taizhong was really satisfied that he was able to die together with his Empress.

But Emperor Tianqi had lost the plot.

It is okay that you are dead. No one cares about that. But can you tell me where the dragon vein is?

The dragon vein is gone!!!!!!

This was the biggest issue!

Emperor Tianqi was infuriated and with a slap of his palm, he caused the air to shake and the flames were extinguished.

He charged in and saw a giant hole. The hole was so deep that it reached the dragon vein but the entire area was empty.

The dragon vein was gone!!!!!

Such a huge dragon vein had disappeared!

The enormous golden dragon vein which gave of a majestic aura had been stolen!

“Investigate it, find out for me who it is. I am going to kill his entire family!!!!” A heart-wrenching roar spread out from the palace deep in the night.

….

Heaven Heart had walked out of the palace a long while ago. Obviously, he wouldn’t be trapped in such a small palace.

“Just like that, I have completed the two contracts. It is time to head back!” Heaven Heart was really satisfied. He turned around and hid in the darkness.

On the other side, Tian Guangming had completed his second contract.

“I am just too fast. Hearing the sounds from the palace, they must have started fighting.” Tian Guangming looked towards the palace and smiled in delight.

“It is best if Heaven Heart is delayed and Master has to save him. Then, all his face will be lost.” Tian Guangming had a sinister thought.

He heard that Taizhong was really strong and Heaven Heart might not have been able to defeat him.

“I can return after I complete the last contract and Master will definitely reward me.” Tian Guangming said confidently as he rushed towards the third location.

….

On this day, God Capital wasn’t peaceful at all!

On this day, the Crown Prince had been killed, causing a huge storm in the city. Then, an old ancestor flew out from the palace to take revenge but had been killed instead.

In the night, after the people in the city started to fall asleep after much difficulty, there was a loud explosion. This drew all their gazes towards the palace.

Something happened in the palace!

It wasn’t a small matter!

Ka ka ka!

The army started to patrol and footsteps spread out on the streets. The soldiers hurried by and the sound of weapons and armor hitting each other reverberated, terrifying the people in God Capital.

Something huge happened!

At that point, everyone started to panic.

God Capital, Duanmu Family!

The Duanmu Family members left the small wooden hut with sadness on their faces.

They had just said goodbye to the old ancestor. As they found out that the old ancestor was coming to the end of his life, they all felt bad.

All of them always felt at ease knowing that the old ancestor was in the Duanmu Family. Now that the old ancestor was about to die, that sense of ease was gone.

After sending them off, Duanmu Yue looked at the tired old ancestor and sighed.

After losing the Soul Raising Tree, the old ancestor was getting older and older by the second.

One could really see it happening right in front of their eyes.

At this rate, not to mention three days, he might not even survive one day.

Duanmu Yue consoled, “Old ancestor, don’t be sad. It is not good for the body.”

Old Ancestor Duanmu closed his eyes. “I can leave already, but I am just waiting for some news.”

Old Ancestor Duanmu was still worried about Taizhong!

“Old Ancestor, I have sent many scouts over and my spies in the palace will send me news too.” Duanmu Yue said.

“You are a good kid. Remember to treat your wife well and keep the family united. You have been suppressing your cultivation and should have accumulated enough, so you can break through now.” Old Ancestor Duanmu said many things right away and his breathing became rushed.

Duanmu Yue felt heart pained. He was about to tell him to stop when some scouts rushed back.

“Old Ancestor, the scout is back!” Duanmu Yue said emotionally.

Old Ancestor Duanmu opened his eyes and looked on weakly.

“There was a fire in the palace’s restricted land. Emperor Tianqi rushed back and destroyed it with a slap. The dragon vein has also been stolen.” The scout replied swiftly.

Duanmu Yue’s eyes opened wide, and he didn’t dare to believe his ears.

The dragon vein was actually stolen?

The old ancestor was paying attention to something else.

He heard that the restricted land was in flames and then Emperor Tianqi destroyed it with a slap. He then looked in that direction with a calm but sad expression.

At that moment, old ancestor suddenly felt grateful for the Empress for setting that plot which hurt the relationship between the two of them.

If not, the Duanmu Family would have been the one to be wrapped up in the heartless matters of the palace.

“Okay, then all of you head out and let me be alone.” Old Ancestor Duanmu waved his hands and chased them out.

Duanmu Yue hesitated for a moment before walking out.

In the wooden hut, the small flame blazed and shone onto Old Ancestor Duanmu’s face.

“The past is like the wind; let our grievances pass along with us and disappear into the river of history. The future belongs to the young.” The old ancestor sighed and closed his eyes.

He fell asleep and dreamt about many things of the past.

He had forgotten about some of those matters but now he was dreaming about them.

A handsome man, who was a year older than him, stood in the fields and waved at him with a bright smile on his face.

Beside him stood a jade-like little miss. She was beautiful and generous and shouted, “Little brother, come over!”

The 18-year-old Taizhong and Empress were here to welcome the 17-year-old Old Ancestor Duanmu!

At this moment, Old Ancestor Duanmu smiled and chose to end his own life.

No one would be 18 forever, but there would always be people who were 18 years old!

Life after death would be tough, so it was best to reminisce about one’s memories from when one was 18.

That was happiness too!

Outside the wooden hut, Duanmu Yue knelt on the ground and tears flowed uncontrollably.

“Goodbye Old Ancestor!”

….

On that night, dozens of old people had their debts claimed by the Bank of the Universe.

Many of them tried to fight back but Lucifer and Moon Angel defeated them.

After Li Xiandao and Seven saw all of this, they nodded their heads in satisfaction, “Their cultivation is not bad. They didn’t waste my resources.”

After they entered Eternal Land, Li Xiandao told them to cultivate and break through. He provided them with spiritual energy and opened the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository to them. He also told them to take any god source that they needed.

Li Xiandao played a small part in them breaking through so quickly.

“They have now grown, so you can just control the scenes from the shadows.” Seven said.

“Not bad. I like being an evil mastermind.” Li Xiandao laughed out loud.

“Oh right, I told you to investigate the red watch. How is it?” Seven suddenly asked.

Li Xiandao’s expression didn’t change. “There hasn’t been any news yet. Once they all return, I will send them to find it.”

“We have to find it.” Seven reminded Li Xiandao.

Li Xiandao nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.
