Chapter 1016: Chapter 312: The Return of the Ancient Gods_3
“So?”
Nu Ba felt somewhat bewildered.
Just because The Three Pure Ones aren’t worried, Sun Wukong isn’t worried either?
What kind of logic is that?
Sun Wukong gave a faint smile and said, “So, we don’t need to worry either. The Three Realms won’t be destroyed, rest assured.”
Seeing Sun Wukong so confident.
Nu Ba nodded, ultimately saying nothing more.
If Sun Wukong truly wasn’t worried, she was happy as well.
It’s better than seeing Sun Wukong looking anxious.
Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, “Don’t think those three old fellows don’t care; many things are under their control, so there won’t be any problems.”
Is it really like that?
If that’s truly the case, no wonder the Great Emperor Ziwei is so wary of The Three Pure Ones.
As the Heavenly Emperor, but the true control of the Three Realms lies with The Three Pure Ones.
No one can stand that.
So, the Great Emperor Ziwei wants to scheme against The Three Pure Ones, even at the cost of sowing discord among them and causing them to turn against each other.
Time passed little by little, and the atmosphere of the Three Realms became more and more oppressive.
Only Huaguo Mountain remained filled with laughter and joy.
At this time, Lord Taishang and the others also set out to meet Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate and discuss some matters.
At this moment, The Three Pure Ones remained as The Three Pure Ones, but they felt a layer of estrangement between them, invisible yet truly existent.
The last incident indeed caused a rift among The Three Pure Ones.
Lord Taishang opened his mouth, wanting to explain, to tell the others it was all Haotian God’s conspiracy.
However, seeing Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s sullen face.
He got angry as well and coldly snorted, choosing not to explain.
Anyway, even if he explained, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate would most likely not give him a good face, nor believe him.
In that case, why bring trouble upon himself?
Lingbao Dao Venerate, however, tried to persuade the two, intentionally or unintentionally.
But the more they listened, the angrier they became, until the atmosphere here turned cold.
Lingbao Dao Venerate was both amused and frustrated, he couldn’t help but say, “I was originally trying to mediate between you, but I seem to have made things worse, the more I speak, the more vigorous you become. Fine, I won’t say anything more, you take care of yourselves.”
With that, he turned and left.
However, Lingbao Dao Venerate’s words still lingered.
“Rest assured, we The Three Pure Ones will always be one, from The Primordial to now, always have been. When Emperor Jun and the others return, we’ll face it together.”
“I hold the same attitude.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate said calmly.
“The old Taoist has the same attitude.”
Lord Taishang said dryly.
Their tones were not good.
They exchanged glances, and could vaguely see the fire in each other’s eyes.
At this moment, it seemed the two were close to brawling with each other.
“Hmph.”
They quickly turned away, unwilling to look at each other again.
Lord Taishang’s mouth twitched, and he swung his sleeve and turned to leave.
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate was immediately furious, how dare the other do such a thing in front of him.
He too wanted to swing his sleeve and leave.
But as he was about to do so, he realized this was his own place, why should he leave?
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate almost laughed in anger, that cranky old man had muddled his thoughts.
Calming his thoughts, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate became a bit more composed.
In fact, he knew very well that The Three Pure Ones are one, and even if there’s a bit of a rift, it doesn’t affect their actions.
In terms of interests, they are united.
Just like Lingbao Dao Venerate said, they are forever one.
An alliance of shared interests is the most solid alliance.
Moreover, The Three Pure Ones have been friends since before the opening of the heavens.
Having come this far, it would be impossible without camaraderie.
Having a rift over a small matter would indeed be unreasonable.
“It’s not my fault, that nasty Taoist hit me first.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate snorted coldly.
In fact, he was just angry at the Heavenly Court for a moment.
What made Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate most angry was that in the beginning, Lord Taishang actually attacked him, injuring him for the sake of Sun Wukong.
That was what made Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate feel most wronged.
If anyone were here, hearing Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s tone and seeing his wistful expression, they wouldn’t believe he was Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate, one of The Three Pure Ones, and an overwhelmingly strong being to his core.
They might think they were witnessing a resentful woman instead.
At this moment, Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate’s expression was indeed like that of a resentful woman.
“Hmph.”
Yuanshi Heavenly Venerate himself also felt something was off, he snorted, regained his composure,
This expression was truly embarrassing and definitely couldn’t be seen by others.
In the golden autumn of October, among mortals, there was a scene of harmony.
The summer heat had receded, replaced by a coolness,
Yet at this time, the atmosphere of the entire Three Realms had tightened to the extreme.
Even mortals sensed something different.
At this moment, the Three Realms seemed shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere.
Throughout the Three Realms, even the chirping of birds was absent, and some wild animals dared not appear.
While quiet, this situation was oppressive, as if something terrifying was about to happen, like a harbinger of doom.
Boom.
Above the Vault of Heaven, a blood-red lightning suddenly streaked across.
In a short time, a fierce wind arose between heaven and earth, and the whole world darkened.
Thunder roared, not only in the Mortal World but also across the Heavenly Court and even in the Netherworld.
Everyone felt that oppressive aura growing heavier and heavier.
