Chapter 1845: Asking the Heart, Guiltless
ud absorbed a vast amount of vitality, in reality, he couldn't absorb it completely and couldn't transform all of it into his own life force.At most, it could only absorb less than one-tenth. The rest...This sudden appearance of the human figure and monster naturally immediately caught everyone's attention, causing them to temporarily stop their movements and turn their gazes towards it. Even Jiang Yun and the Daoist Master were no exception.
And when Jiang Yun saw clearly this group of cultivators and demonic beasts, his face immediately showed a look of surprise.
Just as he was about to speak, a voice rose faster than his.
"Long time no see!"
This voice, it suddenly came from the Dao Sovereign.
And the person he was looking at this moment was actually the head of the many cultivators who had just appeared, a middle-aged beautiful woman.
A middle-aged beautiful woman is naturally Lei Mu!
Apart from Dao's second-rank, very few of the other cultivators present had ever seen Lei Mu, and naturally, they didn't know who she was.
But the golden thunder that surrounded Lei Mu, however, made them all feel a hint of threat and fear, and they didn't even dare to look directly at it.
Especially the words and tone Dao Zun spoke to Lei Mu at this moment, clearly showed that he knew Lei Mu, and their relationship seemed extraordinary!
This also means that Lei Mu's status should be on par with the Dao Zun.
And such people, any one of them, would absolutely be the most top-tier existence within the Dao domain.
The moment Lei Mu saw the Dao Zun, her body trembled involuntarily, but she quickly calmed down.
He didn't even bother to pay attention to Daozun's words, but instead turned his gaze directly to Jiang Yun, a look of concern on his face: "Are you alright"
Hearing Lei Mu's words, everyone understood. This powerful being who knew Dao Zun was here to help Jiang Yun.
As for the relationship between Dao Zun and Lei Mu, Jiang Yun would know best.
Back then, the Venerable One wasn't yet the Lord of Tao Domain. In order to seek out the Way of Thunder from Mother Lei, he feigned closeness to her, accompanying her on a journey through the Tao Domain.
Finally, after successfully obtaining the Dao fruit of Lei (thunder), he ripped off his disguise. Instead of showing gratitude to Lei Mu (mother thunder), he betrayed her and sealed her in the Lei Dao Mountains of Lei Ji Tian (thunder extreme heaven).
If it weren't for Jiang Yun's chance encounter and the subsequent rescue of Lei Mu, she might have already perished long ago.
Although Lei Mu's personality is tranquil and she avoids conflict, she still ignores Dao Zun when she sees him again.
As for Jiang Yun, he never expected that Lei Mu would come to the Shan Hai Realm at this time, and that she was here to save him. A warm current surged through his heart, and he gently shook his head and said, "I'm fine!"
Seeing that Lei Mu ignored him, Dao Zun was not surprised at all. His eyes swept over Lei Mu, Di Lingzi and the others, then he sneered coldly: "As beings of the Dao Domain, you fail to lend a hand when faced with an invasion by outsiders, and you even dare to help the treacherous agents of Mie Yu. You turn against us, the cultivators of the Dao Domain."
"From this moment forward, you are no longer beings of my Dao!"
“All cultivators from every domain, listen up! This traitor must be slain by everyone!”
The Daoist's words were extremely vicious.
He stood on the moral high ground, not only successfully reigniting the anger in the hearts of the Dao Domain cultivators but also labeling figures like Lei Mu and all those who wished to help Jiang Yun as traitors of the Dao Domain.
Anyone who betrays is extremely disliked.
Therefore, as the words of the Daoist Venerable fell, expressions of disdain and anger instantly appeared on the faces of all the cultivators from the Dao Domain. Their eyes toward Lei Mu and the others also held a cold and fierce intent.
Needless to say, at the Patriarch's command, they turned into streaks of light and rushed towards Lei Mu and Di Lingzi.
At this point, even if Dilinzi and the others wanted to leave the Shan Hai Realm, it would be too late.
However, despite the arrival of figures like Lei Mu and Bai Ze, the overall strength of the Shan Hai realm still fell short compared to that of Dao Domain cultivators.
Heading towards Lei Mu were the two Sect Masters, Wu Xingzi and Mu Xiao. With their combined power, even if they weren't Lei Mu's match, they could at least hold her off.
And the remaining Grandmaster of Zhen Dao Zong, Zhen Wuji, alone could easily sweep away everyone including Di Lingzi.
Moreover, Jiang Yun knew very well that those cultivators who had spontaneously come to the Shan Hai Realm wanting to kill her had no grievances with the Shan Hai Realm or herself.
They were completely deceived by the Dao Sovereign, manipulated by him. They turned against their own people in order to protect the Dao Domain.
They, venerable!
They should not die in the struggle between themselves and the Daoist!
At that thought, Ginger Cloud suddenly roared, "Stop!"
Jiang Yun's roar successfully drew the attention of everyone, causing them to halt their movements and refocus their gaze back on Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun's gaze swept across everyone, and he calmly said, "To be frank, even Jiang himself doesn't know where he truly comes from."
Although Ginger might not necessarily be a creature from the Dao domain, Ginger grew up here, in this Shan Hai world.
"For me, the Shan Hai Realm is my home, and the Dao Domain is also my home!"
Next, Jiang Yun's gaze turned coldly towards the Daoist Sovereign, pointing at all the cultivators of the Dao Domain: "Daoist Sovereign, they are all cultivators of the Dao Domain, beings of the Dao Domain."
As the venerated lord of this domain, you are their protector in their hearts. To deceive them like this, to incite them against me and provoke a war with the Shanhai Realm—don't you feel any shame
"For the sake of hindering Jiang Mo's growth, for your own selfish gain, you slander me as a traitor of Mieyu, slandering that I will bring Mieyu cultivators to conquer Dao Yu. You, do you have any evidence"
"On the contrary, the one who truly colluded with Mieyu is you, Dao Zun!"
"Lord, if you are truly the ruler of this realm, dare you fight me one-on-one"
You win, from now on, Jiang Yun acknowledges you as his master, the nine clans acknowledge you as their master, all living beings in the Shan Hai Realm are at your disposal.
"I have won. I ask for nothing else, only that you tell them the truth!"
"Venerable, dare you fight me!"
Within the vast expanse of the Shan Hai Realm, everyone fell silent once more. Only Jiang Yun's voice continued to echo endlessly.
Although they didn't believe what Ginger Cloud said at all, when Ginger Cloud finally dared to challenge the Dao Lord again alone, their hearts were touched in some way.
Although Jiang Yun had just pierced Dao Zun's brow with his sword, Dao Zun was unharmed. This alone proved that Jiang Yun's strength was still inferior to Dao Zun's.
Even so, Jiang Yun still wanted to challenge the Dao Sovereign alone, and after winning, she didn't ask for anything, only hoping that the Dao Sovereign could tell the truth.
From this point of view, at least it seems that Jiang Yun is innocent!
To this, Dao Zun's face curled into a sneer as he lightly shook his head. "Jiang Yun, you don't need to act so righteous and just, creating confusion here, nor do you need to provoke me into a battle with you!"
"You are a cultivator from the Destruction Domain, and I am the Venerable of the Dao Domain. Between us, there is inherently no possibility of coexistence, and there will inevitably be a battle, unavoidable."
However, this battle, whether we win or lose, has nothing to do with personal grievances between you and me. It concerns only the safety of my Taoist domain!
Moreover, my previous imperial decree stated facts. Could it be that you want me to fabricate lies to deceive all living beings in our Dao domain
As for the evidence you seek, is it not obvious
"As the Venerable of this Dao, this Shan Hai realm holds a repulsive force against me. Furthermore, there are nine forces from the Annihilation Domain pressing down upon me. If you have no ill intentions, why treat me in such a way"
"Of course, if you want even more direct evidence, I can give you that too!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the Daoist Grandmaster waved his sleeve. Before everyone's eyes, three figures materialized.
And seeing these three people, Ginger Cloud's brows furrowed slightly.
Although he didn't know them, he had a strong sense of familiarity with the three.
They, they seem to be members of the Nine Tribes!
