Chapter 2568: Murdered
“The Golden Crow Ten Princes!” Wuhui was both alarmed and infuriated. “How dare they! The Golden Crow Princes are supposed to come out in turn to serve as the world’s sun. There is a strict sequence to their appearances, so how can they appear together? Don’t they know that all lives will wither if they do this? This is against the celestial laws!”
Zu An was dazed. This wasn't his first time undergoing this event. Witnessing this scene once more felt unreal to him.
He couldn’t help but ask, “I know that the separation of heaven and earth has temporarily severed connections between the Celestial Court and earth, but why doesn’t the Celestial Court react when ten suns have already risen in the sky?”
Wuhui’s complexion looked awful. “A day in heaven is a year on earth. That’s the gap between deities and mortals. Countless lives will have died by the time the Celestial Court noticed the ten suns. This won’t do! I have to immediately inform the powerhouses on earth.”
Flames flared from Wuhui, and he was about to fly off when he noticed Yun Yuqing and called out, “Miss Yun, let’s go together.”
Knowing she would reject his offer, he added via telepathy, “Miss Yun, I know you can’t bear to part ways with your lover, but there’s no point staying by his side now. He has a goddess and a saintess with him now. Not only are they of a high stature, but they are also beauties who don’t pale in comparison to you. It’ll only make things awkward if you get in the middle of them now.”
Yun Yuqing was about to turn down Wuhui when she heard those words and hesitated.
Wuhui took this chance to press further. “All men have this bizarre mindset where the more noble a woman is, the more they subconsciously value them. I don’t doubt the deep bonds you share, but you’re at a disadvantage against those two women.”
Yun Yuqing lowered her gaze. Those words struck a chord in her heart.
“But you need not worry. Your bloodline is the noblest of them all; it's just that it hasn’t fully manifested. Come with us. I’ll restore your position. You shall become much nobler than them. You’ll be able to stand on equal terms with them by the time you return.” Knowing she was moved, Wuhui switched to a gentler tone and added, “We’re going to contact important celestials residing on earth right now. These connections may become invaluable in aiding your lover in the future.”
Yun Yuqing’s eyes lit up. She was finally convinced. “All right, but I’d like to have a private conversation with him first.”
