Pangu's Direct Descendants

Li Fan and the three women remained on Taiyin Star, waiting for Empress Ziguang to emerge from seclusion. At the Grand Unity Assembly a million years from now, Northern Black Emperor Doumu Yuanjun could not be absent.

Goddess Taiyuan took a little schadenfreude in it. "Ziguang, hurry up and break through. If you really can't, fight me. Break through in battle, in a desperate situation—that's where the real deal shows."

Li Fan was speechless. He felt that Taiyuan was settling a personal score, plainly looking for a chance to beat Empress Ziguang up. Opportunities like that were rare.

"Goddess Wangshu, what do you think of Azure Emperor Yang Mei? That old fellow isn't reliable!" Li Fan wanted to remind the goddess to beware of Yang Mei.

Wangshu nodded. "If my guess is right, Yang Mei should be the Space Demon God. Space Law is one of the ten great laws of the Prehistoric Universe. It isn't something just any Innate God-Demon can cultivate."

"And he cultivated it so quickly. This time, when I broke through to Grand Unity Perfection, even without a supreme treasure, I still couldn't easily see through him. He should have also broken through to the Twelve Heavens of Grand Unity."

Li Fan knew that Goddess Wangshu had it figured out. Every one of these Great Divine Powers in the Prehistoric Universe was deeply calculating and hid their cards better than anyone else—Old Ancestor Hongjun especially.

A hundred thousand years passed. Ziwei Emperor Star erupted with dazzling purple light, which shone down from the purple radiance filling the skies of the Prehistoric Universe.

Immediately afterward, the Big Dipper Seven Stars blazed brightly, their starlight flowing together with that of Ziwei Star. Starshine fell like rain, illuminating the entire Star Sky!

Li Fan and the other two knew that Empress Ziguang had succeeded. She had broken through to the Grand Unity Eleventh Heaven.

Li Fan deserved half the credit for Ziguang's breakthrough. With the establishment of the Zhou Tian Star Array and the Sun-Moon Fixed Orbit, the evolution of the stars of the Prehistoric Universe had entered the fast lane. Empress Ziguang's Path of the Ziwei Taihuang was closely tied to the Star Sky.

All Grand Unity Experts had learned that Doumu Yuanjun had broken through to the Grand Unity Eleventh Heaven. However, because of the Myriad Gods Conference, the current Grand Unity experts were all competing fiercely among themselves.

The Great Divine Powers all wanted to climb another level. Only powerful cultivation could determine how much say one had at the Grand Unity Assembly. If the Three Emperors did not possess Grand Unity Perfection cultivation, who would listen to the rules they set?

Ziguang walked out of the Ziwei Divine Palace and stretched lazily. She was in a wonderful mood. This time, she would make Taiyuan call her big sister. Hehehe!

Ziguang felt like she was on top again.

If Li Fan had known what Empress Ziguang was thinking, he would definitely have told her to wake up. The number one War Goddess of the Prehistoric Universe had not earned that title through boasting, but by fighting Chaos Demon Gods!

Ziguang passed through the Star Gate and arrived before Li Fan and the other two in a single step.

The establishment of the Zhou Tian Star Gates had made travel through the Star Sky extremely convenient. There was no longer any need to enter spatial passageways and endure the boundless darkness within the cracks of space.

Li Fan, Taiyuan, and Wangshu congratulated Empress Ziguang. They clinked cups of fruit wine, then the four discussed what proposals they should put forward at the Myriad Gods Conference.

The four looked at one another, but for a while, none could think of anything.

Wangshu looked at Li Fan. "Li Fan, you have plenty of clever ideas. Or perhaps you have some important intelligence we can bring to the Myriad Gods Conference and share."

"Let me think first." Li Fan frowned, tapping his fingers against his cup of fruit wine.

What Li Fan thought of was intelligence concerning the Ferocious Beasts and Mount Zhou.

Li Fan said, "During the last God-Demon War, the balance of the Primordial World was broken. Earth Vein Malevolence leaked out, with the Northern Primordial World suffering the worst. The Chaos Demon Gods will definitely make something of it there. Earth Emperor Yuejian should have noticed it already."

"There's one more thing. Goddess Wangshu, you know I am from Mount Zhou. When the Three Emperors went to Mount Zhou last time, they most likely had their eyes on it. I know that Pangu's Direct Descendants are also on Mount Zhou!"

Ziguang and Taiyuan were shocked. They had thought Li Fan had been nurtured by Taiyin Star. After all, it was perfectly normal for Supreme Stars to have a few secrets.

Their assumption was not entirely wrong. Li Fan had been nurtured by Mount Zhou and born on Taiyin Star, so he could be considered part of the Star God Lineage.

Empress Ziguang and Goddess Taiyuan wore looks of sudden realization. No wonder Li Fan cultivated so quickly.

This was a small misunderstanding.

Wangshu's expression turned solemn as she said to Li Fan and the others, "Do not spread the matter of Pangu's Direct Descendants being on Mount Zhou. The karma involved is far too great."

"Some Grand Unity experts may not welcome Pangu's Direct Descendants. Treasures stir people's hearts. Not one of the three World-Opening Supreme Treasures is in the hands of Pangu's Direct Descendants. Is that possible?"

"Do all Grand Unity Experts have the fortune needed to suppress Innate Supreme Treasures? To accept the karma, take the benefits, and then refuse to do the work—that is a path to death!"

Taiyuan said seriously, "Li Fan, if this information becomes public, some people may throw themselves into the arms of the Chaos Demon Gods!"

In truth, many Grand Unity experts had long suspected that Pangu's Direct Descendants were on Mount Zhou. Li Fan's words merely confirmed it today.

The three World-Opening Supreme Treasures differed from other supreme treasures in that they naturally carried a small portion of the authority of the Primordial World.

Holding a World-Opening Supreme Treasure was like holding a hot potato. The karma connected to Pangu was too great. No one knew whether Pangu was truly dead.

Ziguang looked relaxed. "At this Myriad Gods Conference, the four of us will just be spectators and see what the Three Emperors are really plotting."

Afterward, Li Fan and the other three drank tea and discussed the Dao, enjoying themselves immensely.

Before long, the Five Divine Emperors tokens held by the Three Goddesses lit up. Wangshu did not need to guess to know that it was a Divine Emperor Conference convened by Azure Emperor Yang Mei.

Taiyuan sneered. "That old Yang Mei has been targeted by the Three Emperors. He finally can't sit still anymore."

Li Fan looked eagerly at the Three Goddesses.

Wangshu looked helpless. "Fine, fine. I really can't say no to you. Li Fan, come along too."

Li Fan's Grand Unity Dao Fruit followed the Three Goddesses toward their destination.

Above the River of Time—

Azure Emperor Yang Mei approached Li Fan's group of four with a smile. He knew that Li Fan's arrival meant the four had already formed an alliance.

The six gathered together. White Emperor Luohu gave a cold laugh. "Yang Mei, why did you call us here? I'm very busy."

Yang Mei's expression remained calm. "The Five Emperors Alliance is a loose platform. Its members communicate important information, help one another, and exchange information..."

Ziguang looked impatient. "Yang Mei, stop beating around the bush. If you have something to say, say it quickly."

Yang Mei slowly said, "Heavenly Emperor Cangli may be preparing to attack me. Can you all help me?"

Goddess Taiyuan's gaze turned icy. "Help? Of course we'll help. We'll help Cangli Clan beat you up!"

Yang Mei laughed awkwardly. "Taiyuan, don't joke around."

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

The atmosphere fell awkwardly silent. Because of the last God-Demon War, Goddess Taiyuan held a deep grudge against Yang Mei. Neutrality meant absolutely not being neutral.

Wangshu snorted coldly. "Yang Mei, the fact that you are the Fifth Demon God has already been exposed. You should be thanking me that I didn't attack you directly."

Yang Mei looked stunned. "Taiyin Star Lord, do Chaos Demon Gods deserve to die?"

Li Fan suddenly cut in. "They do. What, if you don't die, should I die instead?"

Goddess Ziguang looked at Li Fan approvingly. He had half my style.

At that moment, Yang Mei said to Luohu, "I know the whereabouts of Shen Ni, the Destruction Demon God."

Yang Mei's words struck straight at the heart. Luohu changed his expression instantly.

Luohu had long coveted Shen Ni's God Slaying Spear.

Luohu's face broke into a smile. "Yang Mei has not brought disaster upon the Prehistoric Universe either. I think this matter can be discussed at length."

As expected of someone from the Demonic Dao—he told people what they wanted to hear, and ghosts what ghosts wanted to hear.

Seeing Yang Mei and Luohu hit it off, Li Fan and the other three left without looking back.

Whenever Li Fan thought of the Later Generations' Dao-Demon Era, when Hongjun led Yang Mei in ganging up on Luohu, he wanted to laugh.

The causes of the past became the fruits of today; the Dao of karma was ever-changing and unfathomable!
