Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1769: Chapter 733: A Flea’s Itch and the Final Harvest

In Bixuan True Monarch Mansion, Prince Bixuan Lu Changyan stood solemnly before the ancestor, Bixuan True Monarch, slightly bowed, looking as if he were being reprimanded.

Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi also stood on the other side of Bixuan True Monarch, his expression quite unpleasant.

It was clear that his mood was terrible.

The treasure he used for enlightenment was lost, and when he came to Prince Bixuan, there weren’t even a few consoling words; Prince Bixuan seemed indifferent as if it were gone, how could he not be angry?

But at this moment in front of Bixuan True Monarch, even if he was furious, he had to restrain himself.

"Has everything been investigated?"

After a long pause, the white beard under Bixuan True Monarch’s chin slightly trembled as he spoke.

"Ancestor, it has been investigated. Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion has mobilized Ninth Tier experts from other Star Domains and entered the Lower Pool Star Domain, holding military orders from the Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion, starting to take over the Lower Pool Star Domain and verify and clean up the traitors we once developed.

The surviving traitors only know that not long after Mr. Qu suppressed the Law River in the Lower Pool Star Domain, Eldest Princess Zhu Linxiao arrived hastily.

Half a day later, the elite from other Star Domains of Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion had already arrived.

The Little Star Monarchs we sent also disappeared entirely.

On the timeline, Zhu Linxiao’s appearance was exceedingly critical.

The current deduced battle situation is that Xu Jin somehow severed Mr. Qu’s Law River and then launched a costly surprise attack to kill Lu Sheng.

With Lu Sheng’s death, Liu Xi’s West Wind Chaotic Wind Banner was left uncontrolled, leading to the failure of space blockade on Lower Pool Star Domain.

At this time, Zhu Linxiao entered the Lower Pool Star Domain using possibly some means left within the Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion, killed Star Monarch You Le, and then cooperated with Xu Jin to slaughter many Little Star Monarchs, ultimately taking away the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner.

Moreover, due to significant consumption, apparently only a strong crossbow at its last shot, so when finding Star Monarch Qu Shanze suffering backlash and severely injured after retrieving the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner from beyond the heavens, they didn’t pursue further.

Currently, they have already returned to Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion with Xu Jin.

Immediately upon their return, the two retreated for healing, according to the report." Faced with the ancestor’s inquiry, Prince Bixuan Lu Changyan eloquently explained the deduced battle condition based on various pieces of information.

This battle condition has numerous exemplary corroborations, and Lu Changyan and his think tank believe that the correctness could be as high as ninety to ninety-five percent, also explaining the disastrous defeat in Lower Pool Star Domain.

What lacks, should only be some minor details.

The true reason for the disastrous defeat, one was their incorrect estimation of Xu Jin, two was employing unwise leaders.

Especially the second point is the main reason.

He didn’t expect that Lu Sheng, who was initially given significant responsibility, would be arrogantly reckless.

Otherwise, how could Lu Sheng, who already possessed the Combat Power of a Great Star Monarch, be suddenly slain by Xu Jin?

It must have been negligence, a seed of arrogance sprouted!

Hence, for the disastrous defeat in Lower Pool Star Domain, Prince Bixuan Lu Sheng bears significant leadership responsibility.

This candidate was arranged and selected by him, with the ancestor personally advising against any unexpected occurrences.

Unexpectedly, arrogance and negligence still occurred.

Originally, he intended to support Lu Sheng’s lineage, but unexpectedly, it ruined significant plans.

After the affair is settled, he plans to deal with Lu Sheng’s lineage.

Compared to this loss, this disposition could be considered extremely lenient.

After listening to Lu Changyan’s report, and carefully reviewing the compiled written report, Bixuan True Monarch sighed helplessly.

Bixuan True Monarch was somewhat at a loss.

Under normal circumstances, there was absolutely no possibility of failure.

Yet it was defeated.

It can only be said that this Xu Jin’s combat strength was stronger than imagined, daring to fight to the death with correct strategy.

Thinking this could be due to Xu Jin reaching the pinnacle of Law’s Heavenly Road, then entering the Secret Realm left by the Emperor, gaining something.

This made Bixuan True Monarch even more helpless.

If it were other matters, he would risk everything, employing various means to fight for a portion for his descendants.

But this Law’s Heavenly Road, tests the degree of understanding towards the Tao Rules, tests innate talent and insight.

No matter how much effort he exerts, it’s of no use.

And now, affairs have reached this point...

Resentment is merely dwelling in the past.

Years of life have taught him one thing, instead of dwelling on the past, focus on the future.

"Liu Xi." After weighing it over for a while, Bixuan True Monarch suddenly spoke.

"Subordinate here." Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi quickly clasped his hands and stood respectfully.

"Your West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner is lost, and in a short time, I’m afraid it won’t be recovered, but you don’t need to worry.

It’s merely a protecting treasure during enlightenment as True Monarch.

When you enlighten as True Monarch, I will definitely prepare meticulously for you, ensuring you won’t suffer!" Bixuan True Monarch promised.

"Thank you, True Monarch."

Since Bixuan True Monarch had spoken, what else could Liu Xi do, he could only comply and withdraw first.

But this promise, it seems the difference between having it or not, it’s like repeating the same old story.

The most frustrating part is, Bixuan True Monarch’s promise to fully support his enlightenment as True Monarch will be delayed again.

After this event, in a short time, the prestige of Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion might have the potential for resurgence.

At the moment of stepping out of the gate of Bixuan True Monarch Mansion, Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi suddenly realized, or rather made a decision, that he couldn’t place all hope for enlightenment as True Monarch on Bixuan True Monarch.

He must save himself.

He needs to find other hopes!

This old fellow, whose lifespan is nearing its end, without fully supporting his family or descendants, probably won’t genuinely assist him in breaking through as True Monarch!
