Chapter 222: The Ancestor and the Seven Divine Artifacts
Yunyao felt the change in the Mountain Goblins’ attitude most keenly. Last time, she was far from being considered a celestial being. If not for her extraordinary strength and obtaining some information through violent means, these Mountain Goblins wouldn’t have given her the time of day. However, their attitude towards Zhanyue was completely different, seeming very friendly.
“Are you confused? Hehe, it’s a secret. If you want to know, trade it for one of your secrets,” Zhanyue grinned mischievously. An emperor’s inheritor held countless secrets, and this woman’s secrets were very tempting.
“I don’t want to know,” Yunyao looked at that smug face and could only turn away. Looking at it for one more second would irritate her. If possible, she’d like to tie Zhanyue up and teach him a lesson. This man had taken many liberties with her and still acted so smug. How could the Illumination Goddess be so blind as to accept such a disciple? Although she knew something was off about the Illumination Goddess, not seeming like a normal living person, she could never guess that the Illumination Goddess was Zhanyue’s contract object, reborn through him. It was too incredible.
“Celestial ones, are you here to eliminate the Seven Disaster Beasts?” Mountain Goblin King Momo asked.
“Seven Disaster Beasts? Should be. We found this stone tablet written in the Mountain Goblin language, so we guessed the Mountain Goblins might know more,” Zhanyue said.
“I don’t know much about the Seven Disaster Beasts, but the ancestor should know. I can take you to see her,” Momo said. Zhanyue gave him a very friendly feeling, and with the Mountain Goblins’ simple and honest nature, this goodwill was enough to make them lower their guard.
“Ancestor?” Yunyao frowned. This Mountain Goblin King wasn’t being honest; he hadn’t mentioned an ancestor during her last visit. But it wasn’t his fault. Faced with such a violent woman, the Mountain Goblin King wasn’t stupid. How could he introduce the ancestor to her?
Momo smiled sheepishly at Yunyao, then said to Zhanyue, “It’s our Mountain Goblin Clan’s ancestor. Our Clan has about a hundred territories in this realm, but there’s only one ancestor, whom we’re currently supporting.”
“Is that so? Why are there over a hundred territories, but the ancestor ended up staying with you?” Zhanyue asked curiously, thinking secretly that he and Yunyao were really lucky to have found the most important Mountain Goblin territory.
