Chapter 808: Where is the trust between people?!

At this moment, Wenming seized all the world's brilliance, becoming the sole focus.

His aura was supremely terrifying, having gone too far, too far along the Great Simplicity path.

This makes even the dullest deity understand——

There's a hidden hand!

An unparalleled hidden hand!

So-called Bird Master newcomer and Eastern Yi rising star—probably just an old cucumber painted green, pretending to be tender!

Compared to him, the gods are tiny as fireflies.

Torch Dragon Great Sage, roaring through the ages, is merely dimming the stars.

Primordial Phoenix Great Sage, undergoing rebirth at the dawn of ages, is only a crescent moon, unable to compare with the sun.

Only Xuanyuan, chanting 'Soul, soul, return,' can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, like twin suns in the sky!

You must know!

Supreme Emperor had just endured the Primordial Phoenix Great Sage's vicious 'assist,' his light returning, his essence restored, tracing back to ancient times; faintly, Pangu's aura emerged, and the Heavenly Dao phantom conjured by the gods' joint evolution was easily caught!

And Wenming?

On what does he stand equal to him?

Recalling Wenming's words upon his appearance, full of contempt……'counterfeit'……

At this moment, the gods conceived a bold idea, their souls trembling in shock.

"Absurd!"

"Too damn absurd!"

"He's not dead?"

The gods felt their nerves numbing, weary of an endless abyss world where each pit is lower than the last.

"Weary……let it be destroyed……"

The gods sighed deeply, wanting to speak but stopping, stopping then wanting again.

Can this world ever improve?

You leaders, so talented……how are we honest folk to cope?

Before, there was the Dao Ancestor; unbeknownst to gods or ghosts, the Heavenly Court fell like meteors, the dinosaur clan turned to ash.

After, there was the Dragon Ancestor; concealing heaven, crossing seas, stealing heaven, swapping sun, profiting from the dead, altering patents 'since ancient times'.

Then came Houtu; the Underworld welcomed great prosperity, in exchange for slaughtering the Heavens, violently striking Xihuang.

Now, again……

The gods stared with dead-fish eyes, watching the world shift, as someone made a splendid turnabout.

As they expected.

When Wenming no longer concealed himself, his divine might surged, he reclaimed the peak Dao fruit, the once-broken causality reconnected, mottled fragments of time fell, he revealed his true form—a generation of divine person standing firm through eternity, overlooking the birth and death of realms, watching history turn to void!

East Duke!

East Splendor Emperor!

East Splendor Purple Palace Lesser Yang Great Emperor!

Mastering the laws of Honghuang, as Lord of Lesser Yang, he is the Ancestor of Myriad Immortals!

He is also a deity who fell in plain sight once!

Besieged by the Heavenly Court and Dragon Ancestor, he was slain atop Feather Mountain, dead beyond death, even the Slayer Witch Sword pierced his body!

But now……

East Splendor Emperor shines boundlessly; aside from a worm-like thing at his feet, where is there any weakness?

In his prime, at his peak, he blinded the gods' eyes.

"I'm truly foolish……really."

Tiānwú Ancestor Witch muttered, 'I only know that Wenming lifting the Mountain-opening Axe to split Chonghua in one blow is problematic……I also know he can lead humanity to forge the Nine Provinces Boundary, which is unimaginable……'

"But I actually hung those unfathomable origins on that broken axe head……"

"Yet I never imagined Wenming became that darkness beneath the lamp……he himself is truly the supreme giant!"

Unexpected, yet reasonable.

This world's peak collision has never involved luck, never the weak overcoming the strong or reversing the Dao; only the strong crushing the weak!

Wenming slaying Chonghua is not luck; creating the Nine Provinces Boundary is not fortune.

He himself is a supreme figure, able to roam eternity, overlooking past, present, and future!

Yet more terrifying……such a figure could actually be so forbearing.

Feigning death, showing weakness……he even used the doubtful troops tactic, wielding an axe to act foolish, putting on the guise of a lucky one.

If not for Xuanyuan's rise today and the Phoenix Ancestor's fine assist, he would have defied heaven!

Who knows how long this East Splendor Emperor will stay hidden in the shadows!

Who is he waiting to scheme against?!

To receive such a grand welcome?

"Wuu wuu wuu……"

At East Splendor's feet, the worm-like thing struggled, jumped, and writhed.

Obviously, this is a humanoid existence, but in poor state, bound round and round with rope, leaving only a head exposed, sobbing bitterly——even his mouth was gagged!

The gods shifted their gaze slightly, saw its true form——oh, a little girl!

That's fine.

Having been schemed against by East Splendor, seized, captured alive, bound like a silkworm baby, perfectly normal.

「Pfft…」

Tiānwú spat out a mouthful of soda water; ahead, awesomely booming, he caught Xuanyuan—the Supreme Emperor, Haotian—with one hand, and at that moment he didn't even notice.

Normal… normal my ass!

It's a girl!

Girl… isn't she dead?

She died in an accident, encountered disaster in the East Sea, and was suspected to have been besieged by many powerful beings.

For this, the Dragon Ancestor even gave all sorts of explanations, striving to lift the black pot that someone had placed on his head—"I plotted the killing of Donghua, but I truly did not intend to harm the girl!"

However today…

The truth came to light.

What accidental death, what tragic ending…

It doesn't exist!

The girl didn't die!

She's alive!

She's in perfect condition!

That's too outrageous!

In the endgame stage, a perfect Taiyi combat power… this is going to overturn the whole board!

That's a pity.

The girl didn't manage to flip it.

It's obvious that she was framed by Emperor Donghua and in an instant became a prisoner.

She was defeated.

Thinking back, she set a trap in the cycle of reincarnation; Houtu took the field, facing Xihuang, deliberately presenting an empty underworld while she herself hid within, awaiting uninvited guests.

Such a fishing scheme ultimately reaped its just deserts.

Wenming came, Wenming fled; as she went to pursue, ultimately a splendid turnabout——

You think I'm just Wenming?

No, I'm still Donghua!

Surprised or not?

Unexpected or not?

Not only are you not dead, but… I'm not dead either!

The girl received a heavenly gift from her older brother, accepting it with tears.

She wished she could grow more legs and add a few wings, just to escape and ascend, then return to rally her subordinates for a siege.

Unfortunately, she couldn't beat her opponent, and she couldn't even escape.

She was completely subdued by the long-plotting Emperor Donghua.

Bound like a caterpillar, her dignity swept away.

A generation goddess, fallen to this… Is this a distortion of human nature, or a loss of morality?

The gods wore complex expressions; they couldn't speak, thus unable to give an answer.

In fact, compared to Donghua's binding method, they'd rather sigh to the heavens——

A pair of siblings, vying to fake their deaths… Can the spirit of this age still be good?

「Still, you guys know how to play. 」

Xuanyuan let out a faint sigh, invisibly easing the aura of shattered worldviews, calling the gods back to reason, no longer doubting the world.

「Each to each. 」

Donghua chuckled lightly, bent down, lifted the girl by her collar, and pulled her up.

The girl widened her eyes, her struggle becoming more intense.

But it was useless.

With his other hand, Donghua curled his index finger and gave her a flick, suppressing her resistance.

While consolidating his familial throne, he leisurely said, "These abilities of mine are merely minor tricks; I owe it to Xihuang finding the opportunity, grasping the Witch-Slaying Sword, thereby allowing me to alter the past and correct the outcome of my death by this sword."

"Not easy!"

Donghua sighed, and under everyone's gaze, his words sounded as if they were true: "To save me, I troubled the Green Emperor too much."

"With supreme divine powers, he shaped my faith-body, then changed his appearance, placed me among the Eastern Barbarians, drawing the fate of the White Emperor Shaohao… until the moment ripened, he found the opportunity, seized the Witch-Slaying Sword, and cut forth an era, allowing me to return as a king."

"……" The captive girl, listening on the side, suddenly widened her eyes, struggled to turn her head, her gaze full of disbelief——

When you beat me before, you weren't saying that!

Donghua glanced sideways, looking at her with a half-smile.

——Silly little sister, learn a thing!

If you want to set a trap to harm others, you must always maintain your persona!

How can you play the peak tournament if you can't even stay calm like you?

If you're going to deceive, keep deceiving until the end of the era!

Donghua gave the girl a look, letting her ponder it carefully, while at the same time exchanging pleasantries with Haotian: "Then again… you… your schemes are too many."

"Sever the witch-demon qi, force the primordial holy camp to reappear, thereby linking the glory of the Dragon-Phoenix era, scheming against the gods, tracing back the ancient splendor of the human path, and freeloading on a grandest sacrifice."

"You only moved one piece, yet you forced the opponent to fill in the rest of the steps… honestly speaking, you're still the cleverer one."

"Heh…" Haotian merely gave a light chuckle, its meaning unclear.

"However…" Emperor Donghua didn't care about Haotian's attitude, his eyes bright and spirited: "I'm here!"

We're here!

He tightened his grip on the girl's collar.

If there were only three thousand divinities and the Heavenly Dao were incomplete, perhaps you would truly succeed, having blocked the steps of the primordial divine camp.

What a pity...

We're still here!

Donghua's figure grew more stalwart; with a gesture of his hand, the grand ceremony initiated by the Yuanhuang Great Saint was drawn down onto him and the girl.

In an instant, a vast and ancient aura surged, as if returning to the origin had brought forth some great existence.

The Phoenix Ancestor watched this scene, his face drawn long, his expression perfectly managed, expressing dissatisfaction.

How unreasonable!

You all, what do you take my Killer's Trick for?

A power‑up tool?

Yuanhuang was furious.

But I have to admit, this tool is incredibly useful.

Donghua's figure blurred, as if traced back to the original source, it was the outflow of the August Heavenly Emperor's will!

The girl blossomed radiantly, a hint of Nüwa's purity and dreams!

They could not represent the true descent of a great being, yet that Dao and that Law surged forth like a flood covering heaven and earth.

In an instant, the illusory Heavenly Dao constructed by the Myriad Gods became real!

Because Fuxi and Nüwa, their Dao and their Law, are none other than the pillars of the Heavenly Dao, this greatest of creations!

One represents omniscience, deciding the world's future; hence the so‑called "Heavenly Dao trend" and "Heavenly Mechanism", which practitioners of Yi Dao can investigate and divine—this is indeed a backdoor left by the Mountain‑opening Ancestor!

One represents omnipotence, mastering the regulation of cosmic balance; the birth and death of all things are a transformation, the turning of immortal divinity!

Yi Dao and transformation shaped the foundation of the Heavenly Dao; only then did the Myriad Gods' Great Dao expand and supplement it.

Finally, the Heavenly Dao knows all! The Heavenly Dao can do all!

This is the core, this is the key!

When Donghua and the girl arrived, tracing back to the source, they manifested the two supreme Dao, filling the gap of the Myriad Gods.

When that illusory Heavenly Dao became real, a supreme divine might erupted; the strongest force shattered every rule and law, leaving the Human Dao with an enemy!

Clang!

Haotian's gaze was indifferent; the Xuanyuan Sword trembled in his hand, about to cleave the Heavenly Dao's divine might.

Yet Donghua leapt forward, "Using my sword against me? What are you thinking!"

With a shout, the sword lost its divine efficacy, withering like a dream‑like bubble.

It was essentially illusory, a reflection of time, endowed with reality by supreme power.

But facing the true Creator, it remained powerless.

Haotian watched silently, then unleashed a straight, upright punch; the Myriad Heavens shuddered, ancient waves surged, as if the aftermath would shatter everything beneath that blow.

The Heavenly Dao was blasted away, Donghua bore the brunt!

As long as the heart does not die, without a sword there are still people!

Donghua charged ahead; in terms of relationship and entanglement, the Human Dao's karma with him runs too deep.

Souls hui and xi, indeed can be said to be two aspects of one entity.

But... is there a connection?

Real fellows, a fist‑to‑flesh exchange!

Whether you're brother or father, beat them to death!

Ha!

Donghua swung his arms like a windmill; the girl was lifted, transformed into a divine weapon, striking across the ages!

The Myriad Gods were shocked.

The Human Dao was shocked.

Nüwa was shocked!

The girl's eyes stared wide.

If her mouth weren't blocked, she'd surely curse the world to pieces.

Still, though not refined, the effect is surprisingly good.

The Human Dao truly held back, unable to strike a heavy blow!

Haotian was forced to change his move, thus opening a gap.

Boom!

Donghua seized the opportunity, smashed the Heavenly Dao, and secured a path: "Go quickly! I'll block him!"

His figure glowed, burning and sacrificing, to give the Myriad Gods a chance to grasp this hard‑won opportunity.

?!

The Myriad Gods stared, then swiftly acted.

They seized the opportunity, crossed this barrier, and charged into the Honghuang realm.

Why?

Before leaving, the Golden Mother questioned, she wanted to rescue the girl, but facing Donghua's licentious might, she ultimately dared not act.

I too am a part of the primordial divinities!

Donghua, tall and majestic, "The Human Dao's transformation, disregarding the Myriad Gods' achievements, arrogant and self‑important—how unreasonable!"

I fight for fairness!

"……" Golden Mother stared deeply at him, also looked at the girl, "I hope so."

"Buzz!"

She threw out an ancient mirror, that was the Kunlun Mirror, "Hope it can help you……"

Afterwards, time and space faded, she also disappeared, she returned to Honghuang.

In the end, only Haotian, Donghua, and the girl remained here.

Time collapsed, the passage shattered, this place seemed to have been exiled to a realm beyond, cutting off past, present, and future.

"Everyone left."

"Yes, that's right."

"There's also a Wa."

"Just seal it."

Improper conversation took place, illustrating how precarious trust between people is.

The girl stared dumbfounded at the scene of collusion and mutual corruption, leaving everyone stunned.

"Quick quick quick! Change clothes! Change the vest!"

Majestic as Donghua, lofty as Haotian, they acted swiftly, meanwhile sealing the girl's perception and cutting off crucial information.
