Chapter 1269 - Battle Between Various Races
Liu Wuxie walked the mountain range, scanning every ridge and ravine. He searched for blacksmithing materials and stayed alert for ambushes.
Above White Moon Valley, quasi-immortal artifacts hovered in the sky, tracking everything that unfolded within.
"Planet Lord, he's dead." On a warship a few hundred miles from the Heavenly Dragon Sect, the Tranquil Meteor Star's planet lord, Shen Tian, who looked forty-something but had lived for centuries and doted on a daughter he had late in life, heard the report with barely contained fury. When he learned of his daughter's experience, he nearly stormed the Heavenly Dragon Sect himself, but reason kept his rage in check.
"Why are there no words from the experts we sent?" Shen Tian asked, face grim. He had dispatched several experts to Mount Dragon City. Not only did they fail to kill Liu Wuxie, but they even vanished mysteriously.
"Perhaps they couldn't find his exact location and are embarrassed to contact us," said a servant at his side. None of them imagined someone had killed those experts.
"Brother Shen, long time no see!" Space rippled, and a middle-aged man stepped onto the Tranquil Meteor Star's warship.
"Brother Mu Ye!" Shen Tian greeted.
The visitor, Mu Ye, was Mu Heng's father and planet lord of the Sky Cloud Star, similar in age to Shen Tian. Their two worlds lay close and had long been allies. They had planned an alliance marriage between Mu Heng and Shen Yue, intending to wed the pair once they secured standing in the Heavenly Dragon Sect. No one foresaw the disasters that followed.
Both families suffered significant setbacks in the Heavenly Dragon Sect, and they could reclaim their pride only by killing Liu Wuxie.
"What are you discussing?" Mu Ye asked; with their familiarity, pleasantries were unnecessary.
"That brat," Shen Tian said without concealment. The Tranquil Meteor Star experts behind him stepped forward and greeted Mu Ye.
"I heard that he registered for every event. He's simply courting death," Mu Ye said, venom glinting in his eyes. Everyone understood they were speaking of Liu Wuxie. During the Heavenly Dragon Sect's wilderness training, Liu Wuxie had caused Shen Yue to lose control of her bowls and humiliated Mu Heng, indirectly shaming both planets and turning the two planet lords into laughingstocks among their peers.
