Chapter 735: Chapter 219 Parliament
Hua Cai left deep in thought and soon after, another meeting was convened at the City Lord Mansion, attended solely by the Heavenly Gods belonging to the Starry Sky Alliance.
Hereâs a brief introduction: currently there are twenty-three Heavenly Gods in the Starry Sky Alliance. After Yan Fei was killed by the Lionheart God, Hua Cai, supported by Jin Zhan, who was her right-hand man, took the lead for the star region. In addition, there were Nu Ri, All-Knowing, and a relatively weak Eternal Clan Heavenly GodâDe Kula. The rest of the star regionâs gods had fallen at the hands of the beastly gods.
The second group of Heavenly Gods was led by the Ancestor Dragon, who was a Demon Beast Heavenly God, including An Hou, Yao Ye, Chaos, Xiong Ni, Mu Shuo.
The third group was headed by the Great Bright Song Quan, who had gathered the old gods from all over the Star Sea god nations, but most of them were born at the end of the Era of the Gods. To save their lives within the Star Sea, they had split and forgone their powerful domains, which made their strength the weakest among the three groups. Still considered as Heavenly Gods, besides Song Quan, there were five others: the Thunder Flash God, Wind Che God, Fire Prison God, Heavy Gold God, and Demon Melody God. These Heavenly Gods had very singular systems, having ascended from single-series profession lords originally blessed by the gods. Naturally limited and now without domains, one could imagine their dire situation.
Lu Hong, however, was oddly labeled as part of both the beast gods and Star Sea godsâ factions, hence his say in matters was actually higher than Hua Caiâs.
The last group was the current Demon Race and underworld forces banding together, with five Heavenly Gods in total, three from the Demon Race: the three Holy Ancestors Frogo, Tao Tian, and Jue Feng, and two from the underworld, Ming San and Ming Si.
After learning that the Demon Kingâs resurrection used an ancient Formation from the elf race, Hua Cai had spent the whole night consulting the precious literature and documentation of the elves.
She indeed found detailed records of this great formation, which led to this assembly of gods meeting.
Seeing the group of Star Sea gods and the beast gods seated together, Hua Cai furrowed her brows slightly and asked, âMay I inquire where the Great Bright Heavenly God and Lord Ancestor Dragon have gone?â
âSong Quan had to leave due to urgent matters, and as for Brother Long, heâs still trying to figure out how to awaken his son.â
Hearing Lu Hongâs answer, Hua Cai nodded and then proceeded to preside over the meeting, âFellow deities, I have called you here because there are two pieces of news to share with everyone. Firstly, the resurrection of the Demon King that War God and Great Bright Heavenly God had speculated has now been confirmed.â
As soon as she said this, the Star Sea gods immediately panicked, âThe Demon King is really going to resurrect? Weâre doomed, doomed! Countless Heavenly Gods fell at his hands during the Era of the Gods; we stand no chance against him!â
An Hou and Yao Ye were also visibly shaken, clearly, the impact Liesuotus had on the Endless Forest had been devastating, and even after an endless amount of time, it still haunted them vividly.
Furthermore, many of their brothers had their brains brutally smashed by holding maces from the Demon Lords; their deaths were tragic. In the eyes of An Hou and Yao Ye, even the lords under the Demon King could overturn their old father and the multitude of divine beasts of the Endless Forestâhow much more unfathomable might the Demon King be?
Seeing the destabilized emotions of the crowd, Hua Cai quickly reassured them, âHowever, you neednât worry too much. I have consulted the ancient texts of my elf race, and such a formation, if used to resurrect the dead, would require a number of souls that doubles with the strength of the resurrectee. That is why all souls in the underworld were swept clean. Moreover, given the Demon Kingâs strength, I roughly estimate that at the very least another hundred years would be required for his resurrection. Moreover, upon revival, the Demon Kingâs soul will be drained, and to return to his peak may actually take even more time. So even if the Demon King is successfully resurrected, we still have nearly two hundred years.â
A hundred years until resurrectionâupon hearing this, all the gods breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, the Demon Raceâs Holy Ancestor Frogo spoke up, âLady Hua Cai, you just mentioned that resurrection is possible. Under what conditions could the Demon Kingâs resurrection fail?â
âA lack of souls, or if the formation were to be attacked,â Hua Cai replied, pleased with Frogoâs keen insight, âGiven the overwhelming strength of the Demon King, even if ninety percent of all life in the Star Sea was extinguished, it might not sustain the revival of the Demon Kingâs soul. Of course, this is just my speculation; perhaps the Demon King is not as powerful as I imagine. Furthermore, there is the fragility of my elf raceâs Spirit Reanimation Grand Formation. Since the formation traps a large number of souls, it is not particularly stable; itâs constrained by soul control. So, if thereâs even the slightest external disruption, it could easily lead to chaos within the formation, causing it to fall apart.â
Jin Zhan, comprehending her words, joyfully said, âSo, to break the formation, we just need to reach it and land a punch, and the problem is solved?â
âYes,â replied Hua Cai, âTherefore, I believe we can dispatch a small elite force to infiltrate Abyssal Hell in search of an opportunity. Just one attack on the formation would mean victory for us.â
âCould we also seek help from the Hell Sect?â Thunder Flash God spoke up at this moment, âAlthough the Hell Sect is a vassal of hell, they seem to be all humans, and among them, a female Vice Sect Hierarch once openly defied Archimondeâs orders and chose to help humans resist the sea clan. Perhaps she could be of use to us.â
Though the reasoning was sound, it was a direct affront to Lu Hong.
âThunder Flash God, do you think a mere human can get close to the throne of hell?â
Unaware of Lu Hongâs blunt tone, Thunder Flash God replied, âWe canât rule out the possibility that the other party could approach the throne of hell. How about this, we send an elite squad into the Abyssal Hell. While they attempt to get close to the throne of hell, we make good use of this Vice Sect Hierarch from the Hell Sect. Two-pronged approach, double insurance.â
âExactly, exactly!â
These words won unanimous praise from everyone present.
But Lu Hong slammed his hand on the table, pressing down on the atmosphere of the meeting, âMy fellow Heavenly Gods, are we, the deities, to rely on a mortal who hasnât even reached the half-god realm?â
âLord War God, this is a matter of life and death for our Starry Sky Alliance, itâs not a question of mortals or not,â declared Fire Hell God. âMay I ask if you, Lord War God, have any better insights?â
âIn any event, I do not agree with involving a mortal at this time. This is a task that is simply beyond the capabilities of mortals.â
Lu Hongâs objection, unusually, did not receive support from anyone. Although Song Quan and his group were closer to Lu Hong, they were not as steadfast as Song Quan and had their own judgments, even opposing Lu Hong.
Since the Ancestor Dragon was not present, and An Hou was not fond of Lu Hong, his cheap uncle, he sneered, âIf you think it canât be done, then you do it. Go and destroy that formation. If you donât have the ability, then just stop blabbering.â
Frogo squinted his eyes, looking at War God with some confusion and remained silent.
Hua Cai was also in a dilemma. If Lando were to undertake this mission, the chances of success might actually be higher than these Heavenly Gods infiltrating the throne of hell, because Lando had seen the throne of hell, having been there before. If there had been one time, surely there could be a second.
After a long time, Hua Cai pressed down the godsâ criticism of Lu Hong and spoke, âI also think this plan is feasible, but itâs not something we can just finalize at will. Coincidentally, this Vice Sect Hierarch from the Hell Sect is within our Starry Sky City. Why not call her over and let her decide for herself?â
Amidst the crowdâs cheers, Lu Hong looked coldly at Hua Cai and said in a deep voice, âShe is the widow of De Kula; is that how you look after her?â
Hua Cai sighed and said to Lu Hong, âI know I may be letting De Kula and Lando down, but for the Starry Sky Alliance, for the living beings of this world, I believe that if De Kula were still alive, he would agree to this plan.â
âHeh,â Lu Hong sneered, âI guess he wouldnât want to.â
Lu Hong, isolated and unable to change the current situation, saw Lando summoned swiftly.
As she stepped into the hall, the inadvertent pressure emitted by the crowd of Heavenly Gods made her feel like she was falling into an ice cellar; her legs trembled, almost causing her to stumble and fall.
But Lu Hong was quick to support Lando and cast divine light for protection, which allowed Lando to catch her breath.
Looking at the room full of Heavenly Gods, Lando could sense that something significant was about to happen. But since she was already there, she had no choice but to steel herself and say, âLando has seen all the Lord Heavenly Gods.â
