Chapter 1424: Complete Suppression

Beast Warriors!

When Kou Chongxue mentioned them, the expressions of those present changed. Without a doubt, everyone present, including those from the Star Origin Dao Field, were no strangers to Beast Warriors. It was also clear that they had their fair share of encounters.

As for Beast Warriors destroying the delicate balance in the Heaven Observation Field and threatening the cultivation world, all of them were clear about the implications.

Beast Warriors were completely different from cultivators and the way they cultivated made it such that they had already become public enemy number 1.

Kou Chongxue’s revelation pushed the Star Origin Dao Field into the crosshairs of everyone present!

As soon as he spoke, Hong Xian of the Spirit Mammoth World growled, “Patriarch Kou, do you have any evidence to back your accusations up?”

“Of course. Dou Jie, a fifth tier True Immortal of the Star Origin Lord Manor has infiltrated our world and hid for a long time, promoting the secret art of Man and Beast as One. We caught him red handed and captured him alive, which is why the Star Origin Dao Field came knocking.” Kou Chongxue replied immediately.

“Man and Beast as One? Is that the skill that can turn a human into something that isn’t a man or a beast?” The person who spoke this time was True Immortal Zuo Li of the Spirit Thistle World.

Kou Chongxue nodded in response, “Exactly.”

Sighing softly, Zuo Li revealed a solemn expression and said in an extremely serious voice, “We cannot allow this technique to spread in the Heaven Observation Field.”

After he spoke, he turned to stare at the members of the Star Origin Dao Field who had deployed their battle formation and snapped, “Is the Star Origin Dao Field really behind this?!”

“Preposterous!” Yuan Yan roared in anger, “How dare you frame my Star Origin Lord Manor?!”

“Heh, aren’t you guys really amazing? How scary...” True Immortal Shao of the Spirit Tinkle World snorted in a strange voice, “I wonder how you’ll explain the matter of Dou Jie being captured alive then? Don’t tell me he did it himself without authorization and your Star Origin Dao Field has nothing to do with it.”

Obviously, there was no way the Star Origin Dao Field wouldn’t know what he did. However, if that was really true and they decided to sacrifice a fifth tier True Immortal like him, things would get interesting.

Alas, the Star Origin Lord Manor seemed to have already prepared their excuses. They maintained their position in the Seven Stars Seven Tribulation battle formation and their auras showed signs of merging. It seemed as though they had prepared themselves for the worst-case scenario.

Yuan Yan snorted coldly and eventually spoke in a low voice, “Dou Jie is a member of our Star Origin Lord Manor and we will not give him up no matter what. Members of the Spirit Luxuriant World, we’ll pretend this never happened if you free him now. If you refuse, we might be forced to leave today, but you can’t be sure everyone will arrive in time every time you’re under attack...”

Yuan Yan seemed to have taken a hard stance on the matter, but in reality, his tone was already softening.

No matter what, he was once a Star Origin Guards Commander. They might be much stronger than the Spirit Luxuriant World, but he would still strive to end the conflict without a battle.

Of course, he didn’t forget to threaten the Spirit Luxuriant World and show off the prestige of the Star Origin Dao Field at the end regardless if they were actually in the wrong.

Soon after, Pei Lu added, “We did not know that Dou Jie actually got his hands on the Beast Warriors’ inheritance, and our Star Origin Dao Field will also not stand for the proliferation of Beast Warriors in the Heaven Observation Field. No matter what damage Dou Jie caused, only our Star Origin Lord Manor has the right to punish him. No one else gets to judge our fellow cultivator.”

“Of course... Our Star Origin Lord Manor is willing to make up for the damages caused to your Spirit Luxuriant World by his actions.” Pei Lu concluded.

Not only would they be able to draw their line between themselves and Beast Warriors, they would also be able to save Dou Jie and they would also tear up the alliance of the Spirit Worlds easily with that 1 compromise.

No one knew if Pei Lu came up with the plan herself or if they had already discussed how to play good cop bad cop from the very start.

If the Star Origin Dao Field had already come up with their excuses, Kou Chongxue, Shang Xia, and the other True Immortals of the Spirit Luxuriant World weren’t idiots either. They had long expected the Star Origin Dao Field to weasel their way out of it and Kou Chongxue simply ignored them as he turned to the members of the Spirit Mammoth World and Spirit Abundance World to ask, “Aren’t Beast Warriors hard to capture outside the Heaven Observation Field because of their ability to hide in their beasts and travel through the chaotic streams? Right, now that I think about it, the Man and Beast as One secret art Dou Jie had been spreading has 1 distinct difference. Not only do those who practice it gain the ability to hide their aura, they can even gain Sixth Order fighting strength without becoming a True Immortal. Furthermore, they can merge with a spiritual beast and gain a much longer lifespan than experts of the same level.”

Kou Chongxue noticed the weird looks in the high-level True Immortals of the other Spirit Worlds after speaking so much.

He wanted to add something else to fan the flames, but he thought of something else at the last moment and continued, “Right, in order to be extra careful, all of you should inspect the factions in your world after you head back.”

The True Immortals of the other worlds didn’t need to say anymore. They started to circulate their energy as their gazes towards those of the Star Origin Dao Field became a lot more unfriendly. They also quickly moved to take on their battle formations in preparation to face the enemy.

The Seven Stars Seven Tribulation Formation was also operated to their limit as the experts of the Star Origin Lord Manor flew closer to each other and inched their way back to their Star Ship. They looked like they were ready to make their escape at any moment.

“Hmph, if all of you join forces, it’s indeed possible to take us down even with our battle formation, especially since True Immortal Shang has reached the sixth tier. However, if we go all out today, how many of us will be alive to tell the tale?”

If Yuan Yan had said as much, everyone might not have taken him too seriously and thought that he was trying to scare them off. However, the person who spoke was Pei Lu which made the threat a lot more real.

It was especially so after she revealed that Shang Xia was a sixth tier True Immortal. The True Immortals of the other worlds were slightly affected, even the Spirit Luxuriant World’s allies.

Zuo Li was the most heavily affected. In the alliance, the Spirit Thistle World stood firmly at the very top because of their collective strength. In the past, before he broke through, Shang Xia was the only fifth tier True Immortal in their alliance, weakening the influence of the Spirit Thistle World.

Zuo Li used everything he could to enter the level of Returning to the Origin to catch up to Shang Xia, becoming the second fifth tier True Immortal of their alliance. Along with Lian Jingyi’s breakthrough to become a fourth tier True Immortal he thought that their Spirit Thistle World would finally be able to stand tall among their allies.

Who would have thought that his sense of superiority barely lasted when Pei Lu brought him such devastating news that Shang Xia had already become a sixth tier True Immortal?!
