453 A Sudden War
Yuchi had spent about 15 years away from the angel race’s territory. Thankfully, the return journey would only take 10 years.
However, things changed when Yuchi y returned to the territory of the myriad races.
He discovered that the moons in the sky had changed. Almost half of them were gone!
By this time, it was already the fifth year.
Bu Tingyue had grown up a lot in the past five years, and was currently cultivating next to Yue Hanjiang, who would give her pointers on her cultivation.
The alchemists had indeed selected the right person, as Bu Tingyue had made rapid progress over the past five years. She had gone from a normal person to someone who had B-grade strength in this time..
Although this strength was nothing to shout about in this world, for a mortal, this was a momentous achievement.
Bu Tingyue had also gotten to know Yuchi over the years, and had grown to admire him.
Seeing his sudden change of expression startled her. She had always known him to be a calm person, so something big had definitely happened for him to react like this.
However, she did not ask him about it, as it was something that would not concern her, nor did she possess the ability to do anything about it.
After finding out the different levels of power in this world, Bu Tingyue was shocked to find out that Yuchi was on the verge of becoming a god.
To her, that was a simply unfathomable thing!
Yue Hanjiang, on the other hand, went straight over to her master’s side when she saw his expression change.
However, before she could say anything, something unbelievable happened.
In the distance, in a place that could not be seen with the naked eye, but could be sensed within the Heavenly Dao, a moon fell from the sky.
This meant that the moon god race was under attack!
Yuchi was puzzled by this, as the moon god race was not weak.
Previously, the moon god clan had good intentions, but made things worse, causing the human race to lose so many people. However, from this, it could be seen that the moon god clan’s foundation was extremely powerful. Even their abandoned equipment were considered priceless supreme treasures, and had allowed the human race to run rampant for a while.
In such a situation, who would attack the moon god race?
Could it be the Knights of the Round Table?
However, the Knights of the Round Table were only Dao heart realm experts. The moon god race’s combined overall strength should have reached the peak of the demigod realm, and with their immense foundation, it should have only taken a matter of minutes to destroy the Knights of the Round Table. How could their moons be shot down?
It was impossible to determine the specifics of the situation from a distance, but Yuchi really wanted to know what was going on.
…
To Yuchi, in the ten years he had been gone, the moon god race had been attacked by the Knights of the Round Table, who had chosen to kill their own jinxes in order to reach the demigod realm.
Thanks to that, the Knights of the Round Table gained eight demigods, who possessed immense strength. Unlike the demigods from the Sea of Oblivion, who were busy trying to break through and reach the true god realm, these eight demigods were obsessed with something else entirely, which was to destroy the moon god race and return the stolen Heavenly Dao to the world.
As such, a shocking battle erupted between the eight demigods and the moon god race.
In the eyes of the Knights of the Round Table, this was a righteous crusade. Although the Knights of the Round Table were the ones who had killed their own jinx, they had only done so because they needed to defeat the moon god race. As such, it was the moon god race that was at fault.
Were it not for the existence of the moon god race, their jinxes would have lived with them in harmony. To the guardians, their jinxes were a core part of their existence.
For example, Yuchi would be quite calm when he was being scolded by others. However, if the target of the scolding was Hanjiang instead, he would react emotionally and decisively.
This was the main reason why Yuchi had killed those few people from the Alchemist Valley. In other words, to the guardians, the jinxes were their bottom line.
Thus, the Knights of the Round Table had gone off the deep end, and had given in to their fanatic desire to massacre the moon god race, leaving none alive.
As for the Sea of Oblivion, they could indeed act and kill these eight demigods. However, doing so would come at a great cost to themselves.
Given the fanaticism displayed by the Knights of the Round Table, negotiations would never work, and fighting, no killing, was the only way to stop them.
Although the Sea of Oblivion did not condone this war, they did not have any sympathy toward the moon god race either.
There were no benefits involved, so why would they interfere in this matter? It would be a pointless venture that would only harm themselves.
