435: Disharmony in Heaven

"No... that can't be!"

Xin Huan was slightly startled, then frowned and said, "I don't seem to have sensed anything unusual along the way!"

The Star Lord said in a deep voice, "According to what you said, Tang Sanzang's strength has reached an inconceivable Realm. With that kind of power, it is absolutely impossible for you to have survived a single punch... He deliberately let you return alive, and then..."

"Then followed us all the way to find where we are!"

Xin Huan's expression instantly turned ugly, and he looked around in panic.

The Star Lord was silent for a moment, then turned to look around. Suddenly, he stared fixedly in one direction, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Since you have already come, why not come out and have a chat!"

A gentle breeze blew by. The Star Lord turned around abruptly, only to see a monk sitting calmly in the spot where he had originally been sitting, flipping through his book.

"Hiss..."

The Star Lord couldn't help but gasp, while Xin Huan's legs went weak from fright, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Heh heh, Star Lord? You have kept me in the dark for so long!" Tang Ku looked at the Star Lord in front of him with a playful expression and smiled, "Which one of the Nine Luminaries Star Lords are you?"

This Star Lord was speechless for a long time. After a while, he finally said, "I'm sorry... It was really a last resort that I didn't reveal my identity at the beginning. After all, the entire Heavenly Court has long been divided into different factions, and I had to be on guard!"

Tang Ku sneered, "My purpose for coming this time is actually very simple. I think you can guess it, right?"

The Star Lord gave a wry smile, "Hmm, I've guessed a bit... Ask your questions if you have any, but don't give Xin Huan a hard time. He hasn't come into contact with the real core!"

Tang Ku said in surprise, "Oh, you are actually someone who thinks of your subordinates... Heh heh, don't worry, I won't make things difficult for him. As long as you tell the truth and I get the answers I want, I will turn around and leave immediately without hurting you at all!"

The Lunar Star Lord nodded, then signaled Xin Huan to leave quickly with her eyes. Xin Huan hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but sigh and turned to leave the palace.

"I am the Solar Star Lord, one of the Nine Luminaries Star Lords, directly under the jurisdiction of the Jade Emperor. In terms of status, I am the highest among the Nine Luminaries Star Lords!" the Star Lord said with a helpless wry smile.

"Hmm, I think I understand!" Tang Ku looked at the book and tapped the table with his hand, "What else?"

The Solar Star Lord couldn't help but swallow his saliva, forcibly suppressing the thought of running away... The pressure Tang Ku gave him was too strong, so strong that it suffocated him. Not to mention that his magic power had not fully recovered, even in his prime state, he would still have no chance to escape from Tang Ku's hands.

"And there's this... the previous massacre of the Daughter's Country was instigated by the Luo Hou Star Lord among the Nine Luminaries, who incited the Lunar Star Lord to do it. I tried to dissuade her, but she wouldn't listen!" the Solar Star Lord said with a helpless wry smile.

"Oh, you are speaking very cleverly. You are telling me that you have nothing to do with the city massacre, is that what you mean?" Tang Ku couldn't help but sneer, "Why should I believe you?"

The Solar Star Lord suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you didn't believe me, I should be dead by now!"

Tang Ku was stunned, then smiled, "Not bad, you were actually able to sense my hidden Killing Intent... Hmm, there isn't such heavy baleful aura on you, so I conclude that the city massacre has nothing to do with you!"

The Solar Star Lord cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for sparing my life... What else do you want to know?"

"I want to know everything!"

Tang Ku said in a deep voice, "Everything you know, including the current situation of the Heavenly Court and the relationships between the various factions, and also... what are you planning to do?"

The Solar Star Lord organized his thoughts and then said, "This matter is very complicated... Hmm, it needs to start with the decree passed down by the Saint... At that time, the Saint calculated that there would be a great catastrophe in the Three Realms in the future, and the Jade Emperor received a decree from the Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Lord, hoping that he could scatter the people of the entire Immortal Realm. When the great catastrophe arrived, the people of the Immortal Realm would abandon their Physical Bodies and descend to the Mortal world to find opportunities... Hmm, that is to say, let us perform Possession on Mortals to seek a comeback..."

Tang Ku gave a noncommittal "Hmm." The Solar Star Lord could not see any expression on Tang Ku's face and couldn't help but say with three parts of anxiety, "At that time, the Jade Emperor was still somewhat skeptical, but the Saint's words are always correct, so he had already made preparations. We, the Nine Luminaries Star Lords, took the lead in choosing countries on earth to attach ourselves to..."

Hmm, of course, there are also differences among us. For example, the radical faction led by Luo Hou, Ji Du, and Yinghuo chose to descend directly and perform Possession on Mortals for their own use. However, in this way, the souls of the Mortals would become lonely ghosts because they have nowhere to attach themselves to, but they can recover their strength in a very short time..."

And those of us conservatives led by me, Chenxing, and Taibai hope to have our immortal souls reside within human bodies. Although we use human bodies as shells, we will not harm their original bodies. However, in this way, we cannot guarantee that our strength will be restored for a long time... Hmm, you have also seen that Xin Huan was originally a general of the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Mansion, and his strength should be far more than this..."

Tang Ku frowned slightly, "When I entered the city, I found that the people in the whole city had basically been replaced by your people, filled with Immortal Origin Power. Is this also fake?"

The Solar Star Lord said, "Whenever there is a Possession, there will inevitably be a large number of wandering ghosts in the city. And because they are considered to have died unnaturally, there must be deep resentment. Did you see any resentment in this city when you came in?"

Tang Ku nodded and said, "Not bad, you are right about this... Hmm, your purpose..."

"Our main purpose is, of course, to re-establish the Heavenly Court, and the main means is to seize Luck for our own use. This is also the reason why we chose to possess some emperors in the human world!"

The Solar Star Lord said, "In this Chechi Kingdom, I originally intended to possess the old king... Oh, the one you, Holy Monk, have seen... But he was very old, and before I could find him, he had already passed away. Later, I could only wait for the new king to ascend the throne before possessing this body to restore my strength with the power of Luck..."

"Oh... So your various factions sent people to Chang'an, just to find a way to steal the Luck of the Tang Dynasty?"

Tang Ku frowned slightly.

"...Uh, I don't know about others, but my true purpose... is not that!"

The Solar Star Lord said with a wry smile.

"Then why did you let your subordinate Xin Huan say that?"

Tang Ku frowned slightly, "What is... your true purpose?"

"Our true purpose..." The Solar Star Lord thought for a while, then couldn't help but grit his teeth and shake his head, "This... I cannot tell you!"

Tang Ku's eyes turned cold and sharp, and he said in a deep voice, "Are you not afraid that I will kill you right now?"

"I... even if I die, I cannot tell you this. If you want to ask about anything else, I will tell you everything I know without reservation!"

The Solar Star Lord said in a deep voice.

Tang Ku suddenly calmed down. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly revealed a smile, "So that's it... You went to Chang'an to find someone, right?"

"How did you know... uh..."

As soon as the Solar Star Lord opened his mouth, he realized he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly covered his mouth. However, this made his actions even more strange, and even appeared somewhat ridiculous!
