Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1612: One Thousand Fifty-Six Lu Ya_2

"You are too domineering. South Kunlun is the ancestral land of our Qilin Clan, the place of our birth. We have the freedom to dispose of it as we wish. What business is it of yours?"

"Don’t overreach. Mystic Sect may be powerful, but you ultimately do not represent it. Besides, though my Qilin Clan has declined, we are not to be trifled with."

Hearing the terms offered by this group of Great Divine Transcendents, Jiang Chen had not yet spoken, but the second elder of the Qilin Clan nearby could no longer restrain himself and spoke out.

That’s bullying!

It truly is bullying!

These people, they simply do not regard the Qilin Clan at all. Since ancient times, South Kunlun has been the ancestral land of the Qilin Clan. Whether it should be separated from Kunlun Mountain should be for the Qilin Clan to decide.

But these Great Divine Transcendents have already treated South Kunlun as their own territory, bypassing the Qilin Clan and deciding the ownership of South Kunlun.

Such an attitude, the second elder of the Qilin Clan could simply not endure; when has his clan ever suffered such humiliation? Even if it means falling out with everyone, he must express his stance.

South Kunlun belongs to the Qilin Clan, and aside from them, no one else can claim ownership over this land.

"Fellow Daoist, your words are too harsh. South Kunlun is the clan territory of the Qilin Clan, this fact is undeniable and we recognize it."

"Moreover, fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood us; we have no intention of seizing South Kunlun."

"We mean that even if the entire Qilin Clan left, South Kunlun would still be yours. Without the permission of the Qilin Clan, no one shall enter."

Behind Queen Mother, a Sub-Saint spoke up, his tone moderated by three degrees, explaining their meaning to the second elder of the Qilin Clan, not as forceful as before.

The meaning from the people is simple: the Qilin Clan can leave, but South Kunlun cannot be disturbed.

And after the Qilin Clan leaves, South Kunlun would still belong to them, even if no one resides there, and no one would forcefully occupy it. As long as the Qilin Clan wishes, they can return at any time.

"You are really bullying too much!"

The second elder of the Qilin Clan understood their intention, yet he still could not hide the fury in his heart. If one cannot even decide the stay or departure on one’s own land, does it really still count as one’s own land?

According to these Great Divine Transcendents, it was as if they were leasing South Kunlun to the Qilin Clan, hence leaving the land but not the people when departing.

"Fellow Daoist, it’s not that we are bullying too much, but rather you are acting too excessively, risking shattering everyone’s rice bowl."

"Kunlun Mountain as a whole is the first sacred mountain of the Prehistoric World, solely possessing Heaven and Earth’s fate. If South Kunlun leaves, causing Kunlun Mountain’s name as the first sacred mountain to be undeserved, who would compensate us for the lost fate and fortune?"

"Kunlun Mountain is the foundation for our Dao, and any interference with Kunlun Mountain’s fate is an obstruction to our achievement of Dao."

"Obstructing one’s path to Dao amounts to a grievance of life or death, I advise your Qilin faction to think carefully."

A number of Great Divine Transcendents forcefully responded. The matter pertained to achieving Dao, and there’s no room for them to retreat, no matter who stands in their way, they must fight with all their might.

Therefore, even though they know that the Qilin Clan has the holy Qilin and the backing of the Human Race and four other clans, they remain unafraid.

Without a heart ready to forsake life and forget death, how could they achieve Dao?

"You..."

The second elder of the Qilin Clan, unafraid, was about to retort sharply, but just at that moment, Jiang Chen suddenly extended his hand to stop him.

"Ah, fellow Daoists, you are being too severe. Why so extreme? Let me say a few words, and then we can make decisions. It’s not too late."

With a possibility of turning things around and without having completely severed relations, Jiang Chen still did not wish to confront these Great Divine Transcendents. He felt that they could discuss; maybe they could even form an alliance.

"It is said that the Star Lord is eloquent, then let us hear what the Star Lord has to say that can turn this damaging act to Kunlun Mountain’s interests and boosting your Human Race’s foundation, into something beneficial for us."

From the back of the crowd, someone rightfully mocked.

"Who is that?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chen, who had initially been in an alright mood, immediately darkened his expression. Then, almost without hesitation, he reached forward with his hand.

The target, was none other than the speaker himself.

"Stop!"

"Star Lord, hold on!"

Jiang Chen, known for his capriciousness, directly took action, which indeed startled many Great Divine Transcendents. They tried to forestall Jiang Chen’s attacks and protect the speaker.

However, the moment they exchanged blows, everyone realized that they were no longer on the same level as Jiang Chen.

Boom!

A terrifying surge of Emperor Qi in the color of violet burst forth from Jiang Chen’s body, forming a massive violet handprint that reached towards the front.

In the meantime, those Great Divine Transcendents also countered, their diverse radiances shining brightly, and powerful Divine Abilities exploding forth.

But, the moment their Divine Abilities made contact with the violet Emperor Qi, they were instantly nullified. Their Laws disintegrated, and the Great Dao unraveled, turning into nothingness in an instant.

Destruction of All Laws!

The Emperor Qi of violet was one of the most potent forces in the Prehistoric World, innately possessing the power to obliterate all laws. Jiang Chen further infused his own understanding of the Dao of Destruction, enhancing its power to destroy all laws even further.

Before him, any power would return to nothingness, vanishing like the mundane, returning to the ordinary world. Like fireworks, brilliant for a moment, leaving nothing but ashes scattered on the ground.

"Come out now!"

At his command, the person who had previously mocked him was seized by Jiang Chen, falling from mid-air, landing ingloriously before the crowd.

"So it’s you!"

Upon seeing the person’s appearance clearly, Jiang Chen could not help but be startled; he actually recognized this person!

Previously, Jiang Chen found it strange that anyone would dare to mock him openly given his current status. This person dared to mock him in front of everyone; either he had admirable courage, or he bore a deep-seated grudge against him.

Now seeing this person’s true identity, Jiang Chen understood the reason.

It couldn’t be courage, for sure; if it were, he would not have survived to this day, likely falling during the Great Ancient times.

Therefore, it must be a deep-seated grudge that made this person mock Jiang Chen regardless of the circumstances.

"Lu Ya, no, Great Sun Tathagata, no, I should call you the Crown Prince of the Demon Clan."

"Unexpectedly, you left an incarnation here. But thinking about it now, it makes sense that you left one in Kunlun Mountain."

"After all, Kunlun Mountain is the domain of myriad deities, nowhere ordinary beings can enter lightly. Hiding inside, as long as the insiders don’t speak, who would know you’re here?"

As Lu Ya stood up, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but sneer. This man was none other than the only remaining offspring of Di Jun, the Crown Prince of the Demon Clan, Lu Ya.

"Innate Fiery Body, Di Jun really went out of his way to protect you, even finding such treasures for you."

With Jiang Chen’s cultivation now, a single glance was enough to discern Lu Ya’s roots. He wasn’t an incarnation of the Great Sun Golden Crow, but rather an incarnation of the Innate Fiery Essence, hardly weaker than his original body.

Therefore, the cultivation of this incarnation was not any lesser than his real body, being at the realm of Quasi-Saint Perfection.

Lu Ya, the recluse of Kunlun, the crown prince of the ancient Demon Clan’s Heaven Court; many thought he turned to the Western doctrine during the Investiture of the Gods, but this was not the case.

Lu Ya was Di Jun’s only remaining offspring, the one Di Jun worried about the most before his demise.

Thus, before the outbreak of the great witch-demon war, Di Jun, using the Demon Summoning Banner as a price, sent Lu Ya to the Emperor Wa Palace, hoping Empress Nuwa would protect him.

Initially, Empress Nuwa refused, given the animosity between the Human Race and the Demon Clan, she naturally did not wish to shelter Di Jun’s offspring.

But Di Jun pleaded using the bond they shared in constructing the Heaven Court together, and also mentioned that during Di Jun’s marriage to Xihe, it was Empress Nuwa who officiated it, and she played matchmaker for their union.

Now that their offspring faced danger, how could Empress Nuwa simply sit idly by?
