307: Chaos, ambition
"Who dares to kill the Young Clan Chief?" Hou Luo's expression was indignant. "Elder Yuan, I, Hou Luo, am untalented, but my Azure-Eyed Demon Ape are willing to serve you, to find the murderer and avenge the Young Clan Chief!"
The first step to clear his suspicion was, of course, to proactively approach and help the other party track down the murderer.
"Very good!" Yuan Fei nodded in satisfaction. "You immediately contact the Frenzy Ape Dao Province Chief and have him rush to Tu You Mountain! You and I will go to Tu You Mountain now!"
"Yes!"
Hou Luo dared not delay, immediately taking out a communication tool to send a message, but a moment later, his expression instantly changed.
"What's wrong?"
Noticing the abnormality, Yuan Fei hurriedly asked.
"Reporting to Elder Yuan, just two days ago, a Human Race intruded into Mad Ape Mansion and annihilated the Mad Ape Clan!"
Hou Luo said with a look of terror.
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Fei's expression changed, and a terrifying aura shot into the sky. The Mad Ape Ancient City, spanning hundreds of millions of miles, was enveloped in a dreadful Dao might, and countless living beings knelt on the ground in fear.
"Follow me!"
Yuan Fei was furious and, leading the clan's powerhouses, rushed towards the teleportation square. A gut feeling told him that the murderer was very likely related to this Human Race.
Hou Luo dared not delay, hastily giving a few instructions, and led half of the clan's powerhouses to follow, fearing that in a fit of rage, the other party might vent his anger on the Azure-Eyed Demon Ape.
While Yuan Fei and the others were heading to Frenzy Ape Dao Province, some Yao Race forces finally received the news!
The Blood-Eyed Demon Ape had always been closely watched by various forces, so any action by them would naturally be noticed by these forces. Upon learning the news, many Yao Race forces were astonished.
Although the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape only ruled one Heaven Realm, their strength was sufficient to rule a Dao Domain. This was because the Clan Chief of the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape was an Immortal Dao Lord, and coupled with his Bloodline, he was even more powerful than some other Immortal Dao Lords.
However, the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape's clan land was the place where the first Blood-Eyed Demon Ape fell in the past, transformed from his Dao Realm. Coupled with the scarcity of Blood-Eyed Demon Ape clansmen and their lack of ambition for hegemony, they had remained confined within the Sky Ape Dao Domain.
Now, with the death of their Young Clan Chief, it could be said that all hell had broken loose.
After all, this clan had always been vengeful. In the past, a Disciple from a Supreme Dao Lineage offended a member of this clan, and a great battle erupted between the two sides. In the end, that Supreme Dao Lineage handed over the Disciple to the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape for disposal, and only then did the battle cease.
"Good! This is truly wonderful!"
"Yuan Tongtian, you have this day too? I wonder what kind of reckless person it was, but he has allowed this seat to vent this anger!"
"Someone! Bring wine! This seat wants to get thoroughly drunk!"
In that ancient Dao Lineage, that ancient existence laughed heartily.
This was an old man in a green robe, not tall, but with an aura as profound as an abyss.
The Dao Lineage where the old man resided was the one that had fought against the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape. In those days, that Disciple was a junior he highly valued.
However, he was no match for Yuan Tongtian and was severely injured in that great battle. In the end, he had no choice but to hand over his junior, and after paying a hefty price to invite several existences of the same Realm to apply pressure, the matter was finally settled.
This incident became a pain in his heart and a humiliation. Even now, whenever the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape is mentioned, he is also brought up.
Therefore, for countless years, he had wished to surpass the other party every moment and wash away the shame.
However, Breakthrough in the Dao Realm is difficult, and Breakthrough to Dao Lord is even more difficult. Even within the same minor Realm, there are different levels of Breakthrough. Although he had been immersed in the Early Stage Dao Lord for tens of thousands of epochs, he was still a considerable distance from Breakthrough to the Middle Stage.
And Yuan Tongtian's strength was not only greater than his, but he could even fight an ordinary Middle Stage Dao Lord to a draw.
With such strength, he could only bury this humiliation deep in his heart.
Today, hearing that Yuan Tongtian's only offspring had fallen, he was naturally overjoyed.
Because at their Realm, it is very difficult to have offspring. Some powerhouses would even resort to murder and robbery for a Dao medicine that aids in reproduction.
In the past, Yuan Tongtian spent a hundred epochs searching for a Dao medicine to have offspring before finally finding one and giving birth to Yuan Hao.
Now, if he wants to have another offspring, he will probably have to expend a lot of effort.
"Old Ancestor, will he, in his rage, turn his anger on us?"
Just as this one was about to drink heartily, the Dao Lineage Chief came knocking.
With his cultivation, he naturally dared not utter that one's name. At such a level, if anyone speaks their true name, the other party will sense it. Therefore, in the Ancient Land of Dao, very few people would directly call a Dao Lord's true name, because it is very easy to bear the other party's Karma.
"Hmph! It wasn't us who did it, why should we be afraid of him?"
"Although this seat cannot defeat him, within our ancestral land, this seat has ways to deal with him!"
The old man in green robes was very displeased with this junior who disturbed his leisure. He was already annoyed; wasn't this just adding to his troubles?
This scoundrel!
These years, since Breakthrough was far off, he did not sit idly by. Instead, he went to the Human Territory and invited a Human Race Immortal Formation Master to set up a grand Formation for his Dao Lineage. This Formation was enough to withstand the attacks of an ordinary Middle Stage Dao Lord, so here, he was not afraid of Yuan Tongtian going mad.
Seemingly aware that he had disturbed the Old Ancestor's mood, the Dao Lineage Chief's heart tightened.
"Issue an order to have the high-ranking external members and Core Disciples secretly return!"
The old man in green robes thought for a moment and still said.
Although he didn't do it himself, he was afraid that Yuan Tongtian would go mad and attack his Disciples. However, he couldn't be too obvious, otherwise, it would be like telling the other party that he was the one who did it.
Although he approved of the reckless person's actions, he was unwilling to be a scapegoat!
"Yes! Old Ancestor!"
Upon hearing this, the Dao Lineage Chief quickly withdrew, fearing that he would hinder the Old Ancestor's enjoyment... Meanwhile, in the Sky Ape Ancient Realm!
This Realm is the center of the Sky Ape Dao Domain and also the territory of one of the Sky Ape Dao Domain's overlords—the Flying Sky Divine Apes!
The Flying Sky Divine Apes are said to be descendants of the Sacred Heavenly Divine Apes born in the Mythological Era. Their Bloodline is extremely strong, even more powerful than the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape. They possess three Immortal Dao Lord existences, making them a powerful clan even among the Yao Race.
At this moment, in an ancient palace within the Sky Ape Ancient City!
A figure shrouded in Chaos gradually revealed his true form. His body was permeated with Chaos Qi, Dao principles intertwined around him, and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth submitted at his feet.
He was like a Supreme being who had walked out of the creation of the world, calmly seated on the main seat.
He had just awakened from his seclusion and already knew about what had happened to the Blood-Eyed Demon Ape.
"I wonder who made the move!"
He spoke slowly, his gaze arrogant, looking down through eternity, gazing towards the Blood Ape Heaven Realm.
"Who knows? That old geezer has offended quite a few people. Who knows if it was one of them?"
Below, a phantom emerged from space, speaking calmly, his aura clearly that of an Immortal existence.
"This move is indeed ruthless, but with the pain of losing a child, I'm afraid there will be some excitement in the Sky Ape Dao Domain!"
Another phantom, no weaker than the two, emerged.
"Isn't this exactly what we want? This Dao Domain has been too peaceful for too long. It's good to let them stir up some trouble! We can then reap the benefits like a fisherman!"
The existence on the main seat smiled, his words carrying calm emotions but revealing an Supreme majesty that made people dare not look directly at him.
Thousands of epochs had passed, and he had made further progress, though he had not yet reached that ultimate step. However, his cultivation had reached a terrifying level, becoming profound and reaching the pinnacle.
It was precisely because of this that his long-dormant ambition was thoroughly ignited.
This time, his gaze extended beyond just the Sky Ape Dao Domain, to beyond the Sky Ape Dao Domain...
