Talisman Emperor
Chapter 2099 Decision
Chen Taichong was the ancestor of the Chen Clan, and he was even an outstanding expert who had reached the Daolord Realm long ago. So, since it was even able to make him become extremely doubtful, it was clear that it was no ordinary matter.
Wu Xuechan glanced at Chen Taichong and said, “Daoist Dean, is there something difficult for you to talk about?”
Chen Taichong sighed with emotion, and then he took a deep breath and spoke in the end. “To be honest, according to the information I obtained, all the participating experts from the five high-level clans have taken Young Brother Chen Xi to be the target they had to eliminate during the Battle of the Dao Protector.”
Wu Xuechan's eyebrows shot up.
Meanwhile, Ming who had remained silent until now frowned and said, “What?”
It was not that Chen Taichong was not clear enough, and it was because this information was really too shocking. After all, it was the five experts standing at the peak of the Ninth Kingdom Region Realm!
Every single one of them could be considered as the favored child of the heavens among all the innate gods. Now, they were actually simultaneously targeting Chen Xi. This was not just targeting Chen Xi; it was an intention to exterminate him without giving him a chance!
Chen Xi's eyes narrowed, but she remained silent.
Chen Taichong had kept this secret in his heart for a long time, and it was like a lump stuck in his throat. Now that he had finally talked about it, it seemed like he had nothing more to hide and spoke frankly. “I know that this is very unfair to Young Brother Chen Xi, but I am powerless to change the situation.”
When he spoke here, his expression could not help but become a little gloomy as he said, “If Young Brother Chen Xi is unwilling to participate, then it is not too late to return now. I will ask Daoyuan to replace him. I guess the other clans won't oppose it. “
Wu Xuechan pondered deeply for a moment before he said, “Daoist Dean, do you know who gave the order for this?”
Chen Taichong's brows tightly united while gloom appeared on his face. He said, “That's what confused me. Even if they were clearly aware of Young Brother Chen Xi's identity, they should not form a unanimous opinion towards him. ”
“Could it be the Sovereign Sect?” Chen Xi spoke suddenly.
“The Sovereign Sect does not have such capabilities.” Wu Xuechan pondered and said, “But it is absolutely impossible not to get in touch with the Sovereign Sect.”
“What do you mean?” Chen Taichong spoke in surprise.
“All this is because Little Junior Brother's identity is too unique. He was the Savior of this era who had the River Diagram, and he was the heaven-defying variable in the eyes of Heaven Dao. ” Wu Xuechan did not hide it and talked about his deduction. “I guess you are clearly aware of what identity represents for all Divine Dao Protective Clans.”
Disciple Chen Taichong shriveled slightly while a bright light flowed from them. A long time passed before he sighed and said, “Actually, I have long understood. However, I never expected that such an unexpected effect would appear because of this. “
Chen Xi could not help but ask. “Why did all this happen?”
Because Chen Xi did not understand their conversation.
“Klan Protector of the Divine Dao protects the Godrank Mountain and the Order and Laws of Heaven Dao. Thus, the Savior was a heretic to Divine Dao Protector Clans. The Saviour's existence was a potential danger that could harm the Order of Heaven's Dao and oppose him. ” Chen Taichong took a deep breath and spoke slowly. “You are such a unique existence. If it was in the past, then while your identity would be extremely inappropriate, it would not have caused a huge commotion. After all, there are too many variables and heretics that exist all over the world.
“But now different. The Heaven Dao was making an unexpected change and signs of unprecedented disaster had appeared. Coupled with the Sovereign Sect's attempt to add fuel to the flames from the shadows, it wouldn't be strange for the five high-level clans to target you to be eliminated. “
After hearing these words, Chen Xi finally reached a complete understanding. So, it was actually my identity as Savior that caused all this!
In fact, Chen Xi could understand him well after he thought about it a little. Because the Divine Dao Protector Clans naturally protected the dignity and Order of the Heavenly Godsbane.
Yet he had the River Diagram, Samsara energy, and Origin World Core. Thus, he was clearly an unstable and perverted variable in Godsbane Heaven's eyes.
Since he still intended to participate in the Battle Protector Dao while under such circumstances, then it was impossible for them not to target him.
Just his name alone indicated that the biggest reason the Battle Protector Dao was being held back was to protect the Heaven Dao Order that belonged to the Heaven Godsbane!
Yet Chen Xi participated in such a battle, so she would definitely appear extremely conspicuous.
Of course, the five high-level clans would not make a unanimous decision if the Sovereign Sect did not add fuel to the flames from the shadows.
After all, no matter how special Chen Xi's identity was, she was only a Savior, and she was not the only Savior who had appeared in the world throughout the history of time.
For example, wasn't the Master of Oracle Mountain, Fuxi, a Savior as well? Wasn't my Man of the Age Master, Xuan, also a Savior?
…
“Chen Xi, have you decided?” ask Chen Taichong.
“I refuse to back away from something I have agreed to do.” Chen Xi spoke casually. He's been ready for this for a long time. It was not only for the sake of charging into the Daolord Realm, and it was also for the sake of smoothly taking his parents from Chen Xi and investigating the true secrets of the Heaven Godsbane.
“Are you ... sure?” Chen Taichong seemed to be a little excited but could not bear to let it be either.
“I.” Chen Xi smiled while her black disciples were filled with a stern expression.
“Good!” Chen Taichong slapped his thigh and let out a long sigh. “I can finally rest in peace.”
Chen Taichong laughed lightly and waved his hand. “I'm mentally prepared for the consequences. Now that disaster is imminent and Heaven Dao is undergoing an unexpected change, my Chen Clan will have no other chance if we do not take the risk now. “
He paused for a moment before continuing. “As for consequences…. Heh, it won't be too late to face them after the Battle of Dao Protector ends. ”
Wu Xuechan actually started laughing when he heard this, and he nodded. “True, this sudden change in Heaven Dao was unprecedented, and no one could say exactly how this calamity would end.”
Chen Taichong's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard Wu Xuechan agree to his decision, and then he burst into laughter. “Taking a step forward can cause my Chen Clan to suffer an unexpected calamity that might bring danger to the entire clan; but in the same way, it is, it might bring unprecedented wealth to the clan and allow the entire clan to ascend to the skies! How can I give up without trying? ”
Even though he spoke like this, Chen Xi could still see that Chen Taichong must have been subjected to great pressure when he made such a decision.
Because this decision is like a gamble!
It was a gamble with the entire Chen Clan as chips, and he bet on uncertain luck where the severity of consequences for the flop was apparent.
However, Chen Taichong had dared to make such a decision, and it was clear how much pressure he was under because of this. After all, his actions were no different than ‘against sky’!
…
After which, Chen Taichong awakened the light orb again, and began to uncover more experts participating in the battle.
However, when compared to the experts from the five high-level clans, the remaining experts were all Ninth Region Star Lords of medium-level and low-level clans.
There were 16 experts among them who represented a mid-level clan, and Chen Xi was one of them.
Most of the experts were from low-level clans that were the weakest part of the Dao Dao Protective Clan. They had a total of 78 experts participating in the battle, and they were all Ninth Region Star Lords as well.
Of course, even if they were all Ninth Region Star Lords, it was, and even if the mid-level and low-level clans had much higher numbers that were more than 10 times higher than the five high-level clans. Anyone with a functioning brain could understand that Ninth Region Divine Lord experts from mid-level and low-level clans were not on the same level as those from high-level clans.
But even then, Chen Xi still did all of their names to memory and made sufficient preparations. He refused to underestimate anyone because of the uncertain danger behind every name he did not know.
Although the possibility was small, no one dared to say that no heaven-defying monsters would emerge from among low or medium-level clans.
Not to mention that even if they were from low and medium-level clans, they were still innate gods! They were endowed naturally by nature and they were much stronger than the usual Lord of the Ancient Gods of the Ninth Region Domain!
In fact, they were only weak compared to the Ninth Star Region Master of the five high-level clans!
…
The Battle of the Dao Protector is scheduled to begin 7 years from now.
At that time, Chen Taichong would bring Chen Xi to Godrank Mountain to participate in the unparalleled battle.
As for how the Battle Protector Dao would help, what kind of environment and danger he would face, or how he should capture the fate meeting he was looking for from the midst of a cruel and brutal rivalry were the things Chen Taichong did not discuss about . Chen Taichong simply told Chen Xi to ask his father Chen Lingjun to get the answer he was looking for.
After all, Chen Lingjun was a famous figure who participated in the Battle of the Dao Protector many years ago before he reincarnated himself!
After they ended their conversation, Chen Taichong accompanied Chen Xi to visit his parents.
As for Wu Xuechan and Ming, they stayed at the Cloudglow Pavilion. They were naturally ineligible to participate in the Battle Protector Dao, and they could not bear to interfere with Chen Xi's chance to meet his parents. Thus, they had no choice but to stay in the Cloudglow Pavilion.
…
After he sent Chen Xi to meet Chen Lingjun and Zuoqiu Xue, Chen Taichong did not return to the Cloudglow Pavilion, and instead he arrived at the Chen Clan's limited area.
“Chen Xi has agreed, and this decision even got approval from the Great Lord. In other words, we have no way out from now onward. ” Chen Taichong walked into the secret world, and he stood tall in the middle of the boundless world as he spoke in a low voice.
“Big Brother, our Chen Clan will be destroyed if it fails. Are you really going to insist on doing this? ” A heavy sound like thunder rumbles all over the world.
At the same time, other voices echoed beside him. They also expressed agreement, concern, and so on and so forth.
“No need to say anything. Our Chen Clan had a very good chance of advancing to the ranks of a high-level clan when Lingjun was still a part of our clan! But in the end, we compromised. Not only did we lose Lingjun, it even caused our Chen Clan to be unable to recover from that setback and fall into decline until now. I don't want the same thing to happen again! ” At this moment, Chen Taichong looked arrogant and had an imposing majestic aura. He fully revealed his firmness and unyieldingness as a Daolord.
For a time, the heavens and earth here were silent, and there was no sound against the decision.
Chen Taichong turned around and walked away as he watched this scene.
He seemed to have thought of something on his way out, and a wisp of extremely cold killing intent appeared in his eyes. “After the Battle of the Protective Dao is over and if Chen Xi can return alive, then all of you should do one thing at the first possible moment. Paralysing that traitor, Chen Lingkong, who colluded with the Sovereign Sect in secret and refused to fix his path until now! “
