High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 1058 - 489: Tragic News! Jiang Ye’s Fury (Double-Length)

"Heaven-Burning God Clan, Profound Ice God Clan, Thunder Marsh God Clan."

These three god clans correspond to the three major secondary Starry Sky Civilizations within the White Dragon Star System Group.

Heaven-Burning Civilization, Profound Ice Civilization, Thunder Marsh Civilization.

The strength of these three civilizations is on a higher level compared to the Huanglong Civilization as a whole.

Jiang Ye’s countless battles in the Pantheon have proven this point.

Facing the gods of other clans, Jiang Ye still has a chance to hold on for a breath.

But when facing these three god clans, he cannot withstand even a moment, completely overwhelmed.

"These three god clans."

"They should be the biggest obstacles to competing for the top three in the Hundred-Star Divine War," Jiang Ye thought to himself, "Next, I must engage in battles with these god clans as much as possible to understand their characteristics."

This is one of the advantages of the Pantheon.

With the help of the Pantheon, through countless life-and-death battles, he can gradually grasp the weaknesses of these Starry Sky god clans.

When it comes to actual combat, this experience will be Jiang Ye’s greatest trump card.

Soon.

Jiang Ye’s true form left the place and returned to the Profound Light Hall.

"The life and death cultivation of the Dao body."

"The true form, however, perceives the world and cultivates divine powers," Jiang Ye was filled with fighting spirit, "There are six months left, let’s sprint."

Toward the peak of the Demigod level, sprint!

...

Five months later.

As the Hundred-Star Divine War approached, the geniuses of the god clans were all eager for battle, and within and outside the Huanglong Civilization, the air was filled with a tension as sharp as drawn swords.

Within the Profound Light Hall.

Jiang Ye felt that his cultivation had reached the current peak, continuing to cultivate yielded no obvious effect.

"Months of cultivation."

"I wonder how the outside world is now," thought Jiang Ye.

In these months he had devoted himself to cultivation, isolating himself from all external matters.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ye’s mind stirred, and he stepped out from the Profound Light Hall to start receiving information from the outside world.

But to Jiang Ye’s surprise.

The first news he heard was a major disaster.

"What?"

"A major accident during the hunting event months ago?" Jiang Ye’s expression changed slightly, followed by an intense contraction of his pupils.

Boom!

In the next moment, Jiang Ye’s figure had transformed into a streak of Flowing Light, breaking through the restrictions of the Bright Heart Hall, racing towards Wang Zilu.

With his current Divine Son authority, he could freely traverse the territories of the various god clans.

In a short moment, Wang Zilu’s residence was already in view.

Only to see the vermilion gate shut tightly, the guards at the door showed a troubled expression upon seeing Jiang Ye approach, yet dared not block him, only bowing and saying, "Divine Son Ye Jiang, His Highness has ordered that no one is allowed inside."

"I came to see Wang Zilu," Jiang Ye said in a low voice.

The guard’s expression was one of distress, "Forgive me, Divine Son, but His Highness has stated that he will not receive any visits."

Jiang Ye raised his hand to push open the door, stepping forward to enter, but a light golden screen suddenly rose, blocking him outside.

This was the royal family’s protective barrier, evidently activated by Wang Zilu intentionally.

Jiang Ye’s palm was pressed against the light screen, and his heart sank.

In six months, there’s enough time to heal injuries, even if severely injured and near death; with the royal family’s treasures, he should have recovered. However, not only has Wang Zilu shut himself away, but he has even refused him entry; things must be worse than he imagined.

"Wang Zilu, I came to see you."

Jiang Ye’s divine thought passed through the light screen, reaching the depths of the residence.

Within the residence, all remained silent, with no response.

Jiang Ye continued, "I do not intend to disturb you, but hearing that something happened, I could not rest easy."

Still silence.

Jiang Ye sighed lightly, his tone softened, "The Hundred-Star Divine War is coming soon. You and I are both forces of Huanglong. If you have any troubles, speak up, I will help you solve them."

After a long time.

The light golden screen finally slowly dissipated.

Jiang Ye stepped into the residence. The courtyard was filled with fallen blossoms, yet no one tended to them. The scene was desolate, starkly different from the usual prosperity of the royal residence.

In the depths of the courtyard, in the pavilion, a slender figure stood quietly before the window, back facing Jiang Ye, dressed in snow-white clothes, yet her aura was exceptionally weak.

It was Wang Zilu.

"You’ve come." Her voice was very light, with a trace of trembling, never turning around.

"Why didn’t you tell me?" Jiang Ye walked forward slowly, his gaze falling upon her back, the unease in his heart growing stronger.

Wang Zilu’s body slightly stiffened, slowly turning around. Her face was covered by a white veil, concealing most of it, leaving only a pair of reddened eyes exposed, their gaze dim.

Her right arm hung empty, the sleeve falling, lightly swayed by the breeze.

The divine thought of Jiang Ye quietly spread out, through that layer of thin veil, taking in the appearance of Wang Zilu completely.

It was originally a face of beauty that captivated the starry sky.

Now it was covered with hideous black scars, spreading from the forehead to the chin, utterly ruining the once stunning features, leaving behind an unspeakable ugliness.

The missing right arm, at the wound, was enshrouded in a cold demonic qi, constantly corroding the surrounding flesh, making it impossible for her to reconstruct the arm.

Jiang Ye’s heart sank to the bottom.

Wang Zilu possessed the royal bloodline, her life force was extraordinarily strong, not to mention losing an arm or a face; even if half of her body exploded, with the royal resources, she could recover in a short time.

But now, not only her beauty was entirely ruined, but her arm was also irreparable.

The only reason was that the methods of the one who harmed her were exceptionally insidious, and that demonic qi had a highly corrosive force, completely suppressing her vitality.

"I’m disfigured." Wang Zilu said softly, raising her hand to cover her face.

Her voice was very light.

But Jiang Ye could hear the desperation in the girl’s tone.

That once flawless jade-like face had now become terribly ugly, and seemingly irrecoverable.

Wang Zilu has not yet broken through to the demigod level, and lacks the recovery ability of that level.

Even if a God acted, she would at least need to have the strength of a demigod level, otherwise, she couldn’t withstand the majestic divine power.

A strong sense of guilt surged in Jiang Ye’s heart.

Half a year ago, Wang Zilu personally came to invite him to hunt in the starry sky, but at that time he was absorbed in the insights of the spear path and felt that the hunting matter was insignificant, so he declined politely.

If he had agreed then and went with Wang Zilu, with his strength, how could he have let Wang Zilu fall into such a situation?

Alongside his guilt.

Boundless anger also rose in Jiang Ye’s eyes.

"Who did this?" Jiang Ye said in a low voice.

"Mo Wushuang." The hatred flickered in Wang Zilu’s eyes.

"Mo Wushuang?"

"Again, it’s the Cangxu Civilization." A strong killing intent rose in Jiang Ye’s heart.

But soon, he calmed down.

"Where’s your brother?"

"Logically, Prince Zijun shouldn’t have failed to protect you." Jiang Ye said in a deep voice.

Mentioning Prince Zijun, Wang Zilu revealed a slight bitter smile.

"My brother could indeed handle Mo Wushuang."

"But at that time, it wasn’t just Mo Wushuang from Cangxu Civilization." Wang Zilu said helplessly: "Mo Tianlun was also there."

Mo Tianlun?

Jiang Ye’s brow furrowed, he certainly recognized this name.

This person was the top genius of the previous generation from Cangxu Civilization, an existence equivalent to Bai Cantian.

"Mo Tianlun?"

"How could he appear there?" Jiang Ye said in a deep voice: "Didn’t Huanglong send Bai Cantian as reinforcements upon receiving the news?"

In such hunting activities, usually, it’s agreed upon by the high-ups of each civilization.

If one side sends a genius from the previous generation, the other side would also send an equivalent genius to participate.

"No."

"Before the hunt began, both parties had an agreement." Wang Zilu shook her head slightly: "No top geniuses would be dispatched for this hunt."

"But Cangxu Civilization broke the agreement."

"Mo Tianlun suddenly appeared, and on our side, there was simply no corresponding combat power, the entire hunting team was crushed by Cangxu, suffering severe casualties." Wang Zilu bit her silver teeth tightly: "Mo Wushuang attacked me while my brother was restrained by Mo Tianlun."

Breaking the agreement?!

Cangxu Civilization had done such things more than once.

"What a Cangxu Civilization." The killing intent in Jiang Ye’s eyes almost turned into substance.

How shameless!

Mo Wushuang, Mo Tianlun!

Many thoughts flashed through Jiang Ye’s mind, firmly remembering these names.

"Why didn’t you tell me earlier?" Jiang Ye softened his tone.

Wang Zilu’s body trembled slightly.

"I’m sorry..."

"I didn’t want you to see." The girl lowered her eyes, seeming a bit afraid to look at Jiang Ye: "The current me, looks terrible, right."

She avoided Jiang Ye’s gaze, her slender body slightly curling up, like an injured little beast, her pride utterly shattered, leaving only pitiful inferiority and despair.

Jiang Ye looked at her, his heart filled with a mix of anger and guilt, transforming into an unspeakable heartache.

He crouched down slowly, ignoring Wang Zilu’s subconscious dodge, he reached out his right hand, gently holding her cheek.

His palm was warm and strong, with a steady power that instantly calmed Wang Zilu’s trembling body.
