Otherworldly Desert Dust

"Lord Wu Hen, I'll refrain from discussing how to overturn the Rotating Martial God for now," Luo An said. "Once we eliminate the Rotating Martial God, won't we have to face the shared censure of the other eighteen Martial Gods? Besides, apart from these nineteen Martial Gods on the True Martial Continent, there are countless others from various continents, a total of a hundred. These hundred Martial Gods likely see us as part of the Demon Clan and will unite to exterminate us. Even if the Nuwa God End employs both Space Wander and Time Travel, it would hardly escape the Martial God's execution orders along the way, would it?"

Defensive tactics and proactive attacks are inherently different.

Behind the Rotating Martial God are eighteen Martial Gods of Wudou, whose statuses are extraordinary. Any force that shakes the position of a Martial God will certainly make them appear. Find adventures on My Virtual Library Empire

As for the Rotating Martial God invading the homeland, it is Jiang Qi's personal action. Other Martial Gods, if uninterested in the Nuwa God End, naturally won't intervene.

"Therefore, we must overthrow the Rotating Martial God within the rules, not under our name but under the name of their own Wuting," Wu Hen said.

"Their own name? Wuting is a Divine Subordinate Institution of the Martial Gods, how could they possibly stand on our side, let alone challenge the authority of the Martial Gods for our sake?" Luo An was even more puzzled.

"What caused this whole affair?" Wu Hen asked.

"It was naturally caused by the Demon Clan stealing the Ancestor Bone, forcing the Northern Guardian Lady to seal off the entire Wudou," Luo An replied.

"We support the Northern Guardian Lady to become a Martial God. In her name, we confront the Rotating Martial God Jiang Qi. From the standpoint of the entire True Martial Continent including all of the Martial God Alliance, it is viewed as a struggle between a newly rising prodigy and the Rotating Martial God. Whether it succeeds or fails, it's an internal matter of the True Martial Continent. What does it have to do with us outsiders? Jiang Qi has only perceived our existence without solid evidence; we still resist him under the identity of the Martial Artist Alliance—what's wrong with that?" Wu Hen explained.

"Didn't the Northern Guardian Lady just crack down on our alliance? Her Silver Gua Wu Rui almost flattened our territory. How could she side with us, not to mention how can we be sure she doesn't share Jiang Qi's ideologies?" Vice Hierarch Zhang Luo said.

"The Northern Guardian Lady is being suppressed by Jiang Qi, everyone in Wudou is clear about this," Luo An stated.

"Yes, and also the brothers from the Lu Yun Commerce have said that she actually stands by our side," someone mentioned Lu Yun Commerce.

"Is Lu Yun Commerce reliable?"

"Reliable, because I am Lu Yun," Wu Hen confessed.

"Ah???" The crowd looked at Wu Hen in surprise.

Lu Yun Commerce is a force second only to the Alliance, especially after Ruan Muhuan took control of the female monarch's position in Wuting, the entire commerce rapidly expanded. A large part of the commerce also consists of our fellow clansmen who possess rare Spirit Jade mines. They have not only become the biggest contributors to the defense of Nuwa God End but also trained many powerful Martial Artists. Their leaders, Guan Li, Cheng Xiaoshan, and others, are already influential figures in the homeland.

Lu Yun Commerce and the East Bright Alliance are a bit different. Lu Yun Commerce deals more closely with the forces of Wudou and has a better reputation outside than the East Bright Alliance. After all, with the staunch support of a city's citizens—original residents of the True Martial Continent— they believe in the name of Lu Yun far more than in the Rotating Martial God.

"Lord Wu Hen, so the person those residents believe in is actually you?" Luo An queried.

"I merely rescued a Ya City; the subsequent influence is mostly due to Lu Yun Gang and Ruan Muhuan, not so much related to me," Wu Hen responded.

"But those citizens of Ya City who now hold certain positions in Wudou still vividly remember your heroic deed back then. You inadvertently established your own faith, and their influence in Wudou isn't any less than our entire East Bright Alliance..." Luo An continued.

"If that's the case, we indeed can place our bets on the Northern Guardian Lady. Though she is the most likely to become a Martial God in the coming years, under Jiang Qi's deliberate suppression, whether she can eventually step into the Martial God Realm is still uncertain, and we simply don't have that much time," Zhang Luo said.

"That's not for you to worry about," Wu Hen stated.

"Will you be making a move? May I tentatively ask, is the person who slashed a Sword Trace on the Martial God Statue..." Luo An inquired.

Luo An had his suspicions but never dared to ask.

Wu Hen did not answer.

To others, this seemed like confirmation!

Good heavens, it really is Lord Wu Hen!

With the Rotating Martial God having commanded the Northern Guardian Lady to trample the East Bright Alliance, Lord Wu Hen took his revenge without delay, striking directly at the opponent's Martial God Statue with a sword, that massive crack impacted right in the hearts of all Wudou citizens—utterly staggering!

"What you need to do is stir up a voice of resistance against the Rotating Martial God in Wudou, gather as much brutal sentiment about the Rotating Martial God as possible, make it known throughout the city that he conspired with the Demon Clan to oppress a newly rising prodigy. It's best to spread it to the ears of other Martial Gods too, giving the Northern Guardian Lady the most legitimate reason to resist him..." Wu Hen instructed.

Dealing with Martial God Jiang Qi is one aspect; to secure our foothold, we still must give a reasonable explanation to the other eighteen Martial Gods.

Even for the exalted Martial Gods, if there are nineteen in the Wuting Martial God Alliance and one more emerges, one must surely be eliminated.

Wu Hen was certain that if Ruan Muhuan eliminates Jiang Qi for a legitimate reason, she would be the nineteenth Martial God. Even if the other eighteen Martial Gods hold grudges, they are unlikely to actually fight to the death against the new Martial God.

Wu Hen has never feared this Martial God Jiang Qi.

What he needs to consider are the other Martial Gods of the entire True Martial Continent.

"I understand now, in Lord Wu Hen's eyes, Jiang Qi is not an invincible being. Yet, for Nuwa God End to safely traverse the True Martial Continent and reach Cang Chu Divine Realm, we must not conflict with the entire Martial God Alliance, regardless if our hearts long for this world or if we are to pack up and move on. We cannot allow Nuwa God End to be exposed on this cruel True Martial Continent, subject to joint hunting by the Demon Clan and the Human Clan, or else the hard-earned era will turn into a bubble," Luo An, possessing strong comprehension, immediately understood Wu Hen's intentions.

He truly is a hero emerging in this era with a deep understanding of the current situation.

Facing the pressure from the Martial God, they could not back down; they had to pick up weapons and fight.

But the battlefield cannot be at Nuwa God End!

Let it be here in Wudou. Let us resolve this with the Rotating Martial God!

In this vast Alliance, tens of thousands of heroic figures may hesitate, suffer, and doubt when asked to forsake their true commitment.

But if they are asked to wield weapons to defend the Divine End, to clash with that Rotating Martial God, they would not hesitate in the slightest!

"Exactly, we can take the initiative to strike. These beings that scorn our existence will not ravage our homeland again!"

"Hahaha, I never thought after so many years wandering in the True Martial World, there would come a day to slash at a Martial God. If it comes to uprising in Wudou, I wouldn't even frown..."

"Of course you wouldn't frown, dying merely destroys a Virtual Device."

"I have no issues. If we really take down this Rotating Martial God, I won't need to bid farewell to my beloved sister."

"I've adopted a group of orphans, watching them grow little by little over the years. To just leave them behind, it really pains me."

"I knew there would come a day like this, so I've always walked here in the form of a soul. However, if I have to battle with this Martial God in Wudou, I will not retreat!"

With everyone's opinions unified, Alliance Hierarch Luo An couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he had indeed built a high prestige over the years, and his fellow brothers all obeyed him, Luo An also realized he was just a gang leader in a virtual life, nothing more. The true deciders of everyone's fate were those human frontiers, those like Lord Wu Hen who single-handedly confront high-dimensional insects.

Similarly, even though they all confront Martial God Jiang Qi, Lord Wu Hen's approach could indeed make everyone willing and enthusiastic...

He truly is a spiritual leader!

Not only surpassing others in Combat Power, but his understanding of human nature is also very profound.

"Lord Wu Hen, since Lu Yun is you, doesn't that mean the Northern Guardian Lady is your..." Luo An asked quietly.

"I heard that the Northern Guardian Lady has always been a widow for someone; I didn't expect it was for Lord Wu Hen."

"Love-struck female knight, truly enviable."

"Well, if we support the Northern Guardian Lady to become a Martial God, won't she just slay us all with one sword, stepping over Qin Hefang's body, just as heartless and cold-blooded as Jiang Qi?"

"Impossible, don't compare Jiang Qi with Ruan Muhuan!"

"But no one can escape that Law, will Lord Wu Hen definitely be the exception?"

From fervent passion to lively gossip, then shifting to discussing the laws of human nature, the heads of the Alliance really weren't much different from boys in a dormitory, discussing issues from women to the conquest of the universe... Only, they weren't just idly chatting in a narrow dorm anymore.

"Gentlemen, prepare yourselves, swords shall shine at dawn on the second day!" Wu Hen said seriously, uncaring of everyone's opinions.

"At dawn, the swords shall shine, and Martial God Jiang Qi will be toppled from his divine platform!"

"Whether it's the vilest criminals in the lowest ranks of the True Martial World or the exalted Rotating Martial Gods, anyone who tramples on the souls of our sincere brethren shall pay the price they deserve!" Wu Hen declared.

The crowd was initially startled.

No one expected that Lord Wu Hen was concerned about that seemingly 'foolish' woman, yet in reality, Qin Hefang's actions had indeed touched the heartstrings of everyone who had ever invested emotions in the True Martial World...

Those who trample on the souls of sincere brethren must pay the price, even the untouchable Martial Gods of the True Martial Continent!

For a moment, even those deeply immersed in the True Martial Jianghu felt a surge of passion.

Yes, whether staying or going, their emotions were united!

The actions of this Martial God Jiang Qi are unforgivable!!
