Chapter 609: The Battle of Zhuolu

Now that he and Audacious Xuanyuan are contending, it can only be considered an internal affair of the human race; regardless of who wins, the position of Human Emperor will not fall into the hands of an outsider.

Therefore, the two of them will fundamentally not take action.

Thus, after discussing the details with Xuandu and Guang Chengzi, the three of them immediately set off and came toward Mount Buzhou.

Very quickly, the three of them—Chi You, Xuandu, and Guang Chengzi—arrived at the foot of Mount Buzhou.

The ancient great war between the Wu and Demon clans led to the breaking of Mount Buzhou, but the lingering power of Pangu still remains.

As soon as the three of them stepped into the range of Mount Buzhou, they felt a massive pressure.

And at the foot of Mount Buzhou, many Wu clan tribes, both large and small, were spread out.

Looking at these Wu clan tribes, Chi You was filled with emotion.

"Back then, the Wu clan was the hegemon of the land, led by the Twelve Ancestral Witches who governed twelve great tribes, each of which was composed of countless small tribes—how prosperous were they?"

"I never imagined that after Daoist Houtu opened up the Underworld, the once-mighty Wu clan would become like this, with only over a million tribespeople left surviving at the foot of Mount Buzhou."

Xuandu and Guang Chengzi were not interested in the past of the Wu clan.

They knew clearly in their hearts that while the Wu clan currently appeared withered and fallen on the surface, they had actually shifted their focus to the Underworld, intending to firmly grasp the luck of the Earthly Dao in their hands.

How vast is the luck of the Earthly Dao? It concerns the fate of all living beings in the Honghuang world; as long as they occupy it for a day, the merit will be endless.

Therefore, the current Wu clan is not weaker, but stronger.

"Now that the eleven Ancestral Witches have entered the Underworld, the leaders of the Wu clan are Great Witches like Xing Tian, Xiang Liu, and Hou Yi."

"As long as we persuade them, we will succeed."

Guang Chengzi said indifferently.

"Indeed, this matter concerns whether you can defeat Audacious Xuanyuan; we should act quickly, otherwise delay will lead to changes."

Xuandu also spoke up to urge them.

Chi You no longer hesitated and immediately led the two of them toward the central Wu clan tribe.

"Who dares to trespass into the Wu clan?"

Just at this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out from behind the three of them, like rolling heavenly thunder.

Subsequently, a fiery red arrow suddenly appeared, fast as a shooting star, shattering the void; Guang Chengzi could not dodge in time and was struck directly in the center of his buttocks by the divine arrow.

Fresh blood sprayed out.

Guang Chengzi leaped up on the spot, his voice trembling as he let out a scream that pierced to the bone.

"Ah! You bold madman, how dare you severely injure me!"

And at this moment, a burly figure also appeared, scanning Guang Chengzi and Xuandu with a look of disdain.

"People of the Xuan Sect, what are you doing stepping into our Wu clan territory? Retreat quickly, or don't blame me for being heartless."

Chrysanthemums ruined, injuries all over the ground.

Watching Guang Chengzi clutching his backside with both hands, looking miserable, Xuandu and Chi You also instinctively tightened their own backsides.

Xuandu frowned as he looked at Hou Yi.

He did not expect that this Hou Yi, who looked thick-browed and big-eyed with a dignified appearance, would be so insidious in his actions.

Being hit dead center by an arrow, even an Immortal cannot withstand it.

Guang Chengzi almost collapsed on the spot.

"Hou Yi, you shameless scoundrel."

"Hmph, noisy!"

Hou Yi snorted coldly and drew the Sunset Divine Bow once again.

"Wait, Hou Yi, do you not recognize me anymore?"

Seeing that Hou Yi was about to strike again, Chi You hurriedly shouted loudly.

"Chi You? Didn't you reincarnate into the human race? How did you get mixed up with these people from the Xuan Sect?"

Hou Yi looked at Chi You and asked with a frown.

Chi You was stunned, then said:

"They have come to assist me and have no malicious intent."

"Hou Yi, to tell you the truth, I have come this time to ask for a favor!"

Hou Yi scanned Guang Chengzi and Xuandu with a glance and said indifferently:

"People of the Xuan Sect have always had vicious minds."

"Since you have already colluded with them, do you still have the face to come seeking help?"

"Retreat quickly and return to the human race, otherwise don't blame me for being impolite."

Back then, Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi repeatedly assisted the Demon clan and plotted against the Wu clan.

Later, during the great war between the Wu and Demon clans, they even took action personally, wanting to suppress Di Jiang.

If it hadn't been for Lin Xia's help, the Wu clan would likely have been severely crippled by the Demon clan long ago.

Therefore, regarding the Xuan Sect, Hou Yi could be said to have no good feelings at all.

"What Hou Yi says is correct; Chi You, if you stay with them, you will sooner or later be plotted against by the Xuan Sect. I advise you to take care of yourself."

Just at this moment, Xing Tian and Xiang Liu also appeared one after another, landing beside Hou Yi.

Xing Tian glared angrily at Xuandu and Guang Chengzi.

Seeing that these Great Witches were so overbearing, Xuandu could not help but frown.

"The three of you, we have come today to offer a good thing to the Wu clan; why must you be so standoffish?"

Xuandu said slowly.

Xiang Liu snorted coldly.

"Hmph! A good thing? What good things could you people of the Xuan Sect possibly have?"

The Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao are inherently opposed, and Seeing Hongjun even once took action to suppress Daoist Houtu.

Therefore, Xiang Liu likewise had no good feelings toward the disciples of the Xuan Sect.

"Why are the three of you so impatient? It won't be too late to listen to me finish what I have to say."

Xuandu said slowly:

"Now that Shennong has abdicated, Chi You is contending with Audacious Xuanyuan."

"Once Chi You can defeat Audacious Xuanyuan, he can sit on that throne of the Human Emperor."

"And Chi You is the reincarnation of a Great Witch; once he becomes the Human Emperor, he can assist you in plundering the luck of the human race."

"By then, the Wu clan will surely become even more prosperous."

"Do you think this counts as a good thing?"

Hearing this, Xing Tian fell silent.

He was indeed somewhat tempted; it is common knowledge that the luck of the human race is currently flourishing.

The Wu clan has already occupied the luck of the Earthly Dao; if they could also seize the luck of the human race, the Wu clan would surely be invincible in the world and become the true hegemon of the Honghuang world.

Xuandu looked at the silent Xing Tian, a smile appearing on his face, and he was just about to speak to add fuel to the fire.

Just at this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out.

"Bold Xuandu, how dare you speak so brazenly in our Wu clan?"

A giant palm suddenly appeared; Xuandu only felt a massive pressure descend, completely unable to avoid it, and was directly slapped flying by the giant palm, spitting blood from his mouth.

The figure of a stunningly beautiful woman appeared, looking at Xuandu with a stern gaze.

"Jiufeng, why do you take action to hurt people?"

"Hmph! Human race scum, a person who forgets their roots—that little plot of yours was already foreseen by Daoist Houtu long ago."

Jiufeng sneered.

Hearing the name Daoist Houtu, Xuandu's expression changed instantly, and he was just about to get up.

Jiufeng slapped down again; a golden palm print appeared, condensing endless power of rules.

Boom!

Xuandu and Guang Chengzi were instantly swatted away, sent flying ten million miles, their physical bodies nearly annihilated.

"Get lost; if you dare to step into the Wu clan again, I will surely make you vanish into ashes."

Jiufeng said angrily.

Xuandu and Guang Chengzi were terrified.

Jiufeng's cultivation at this moment had clearly reached the Quasi-Saint realm; she was not someone they could provoke.

"Jiufeng, I will never let this grudge go."

After leaving behind a harsh threat, Xuandu and Guang Chengzi fled far away.
