Dreams and fists shatter the sky

Chapter 264: The Attitude of the Divine Race Towards the Human Race

Inside a luxurious suite at a grand hotel, numerous powerful members of the divine race gathered. They surrounded the body of their fallen comrade, solemn expressions clouding their faces.

One of them sighed, "What should we do next? Act like nothing happened or report it to higher authorities?"

Another lowered his head, sighing despondently, "This matter was our own initiative."

"Will our Lord intervene?" asked a more hot-tempered individual, rising to his feet. "Why wouldn't he? We eliminated Ye An for our Lord's sake!"

"As long as Ye An is dead and the unrest is quelled, the divine beings will surely promote our Lord. What threat can Mu Tianyi pose then?"

"Does Mu Tianyi dare to defy the divine command?"

"Let's take a step back. Lin Ying killed our divine being within our territory. Isn't this an insult to our glorious divine race?"

"The divine race is sacred and inviolable!"

"In my view, our Lord will certainly intervene, both for justice and reason!"

Suddenly, a heated debate erupted among the members of the Tianqi Party.

Finally, the person sitting in the middle stood up abruptly and said indifferently, "I will truthfully report this matter to our Lord."

His words carried a clear meaning: their people should not have died in vain; they must force the humans to account for this!

Subsequently, he swiftly departed for the heartland of the divine race, eventually arriving outside an elegant pavilion nestled among scenic mountains and clear waters. He kneeled before a figure whose age, gender, and identity were indiscernible from behind.

Suddenly, the figure picked up a shard of a teapot and placed it gently on the table within view.

The subordinate raised his head, utterly incredulous. The teapot shard bore clear marks of a blade.

The Lord couldn't have cut the teapot himself.

So...

Lin Ying had already been here.

"Guess what he said to me," the Lord's voice was remarkably gentle, soothing as a breeze in spring.

At that moment, the subordinate's scalp tingled with dread.

Lin Ying had truly been here.

Had he grown so powerful in just three thousand years?

Facing the Lord, he dared not ask.

The Lord continued softly, "He told me, 'Respected Lord, times have changed.'"

Pausing briefly to sip from a new teacup, the Lord continued calmly, "Give this assassin's needle to your child."

With those words, a golden steel needle appeared before the subordinate.

Quickly, he reached out with both hands to accept it, then knelt deeply, bowing heavily, "Lord, my son will not fail your expectations!"

Finally, he turned and left the pavilion, his heart throbbing with excitement.

The Lord had finally been provoked.

Three thousand years ago, during the Battle of Ascension, the Lord single-handedly held off seven generations of kings for three full years without falling behind, creating a perfect battleground for those followers of Mu Tianyi.

Yet, who could have foreseen that the useless Mu Tianyi would lose?

Even so, the great divine beings were unwilling to bestow the position of Divine King upon the Lord, allowing Mu Tianyi, that wretch, to continue to hold it.

For three thousand years, everyone had swallowed their pride.

But today...

Lin Ying's provocation had finally provoked the Lord.

He had presented a specially crafted needle for assassinating humans and ordered the subordinate to give it to his child.

The child of Yening was Yelu, killed by Liu Jun more than twenty years ago!

Back at the stronghold, Yening called all his colleagues together and presented the assassin's needle.

The members of the Tianqi Party gazed upon the golden needle with hope in their eyes.

Yening slammed his hands down on the table and said, "How many years have we been waiting for this day?"

He picked up the assassin's needle, his eyes piercing as he scanned the gathered individuals, "See this? You all should understand."

"This time, our Lord's mind is made up!"

"I'll say only one thing!" Yening's voice suddenly rose, "Kill Ye An! Our Lord ascends to the Divine King's throne!"

Below them...

The crowd of believers roared in unison, "Kill Ye An! Our Lord ascends to the Divine King's throne!"

"Kill Ye An! Our Lord ascends to the Divine King's throne!"

"Kill Ye An! Our Lord ascends to the Divine King's throne!"

Finally, Yening declared coldly, "Let the operation begin!"

...

Meanwhile, the operation to kill Ye An was in full swing.

On the other side, Ye An was still wandering through the divine realm, like an inquisitive child.

The divine realm had no tall buildings, only palaces of various styles and colors. The divine race wore luxurious robes and adorned themselves with exquisite jewelry, always wearing no less than three pieces; otherwise, it would be considered disrespectful.

The streets were clean and beautiful, the scenery magnificent, and the inhabitants of the divine realm were of exceptionally high quality. Even the receptionists at the hotel's front desk greeted Ye An with smiles, paying no mind to him being a member of another race.

During lunchtime, Ye An entered a restaurant.

A peer of his age stared curiously at him, even approaching him and asking, "Are you a human?"

"I am," Ye An nodded.

The divine youth looked utterly astonished, "I heard humans live in very cramped conditions, harsh environments, and most struggle just to survive."

"But you... you must be a young lord among humans!"

Upon hearing this, Ye An frowned, "The lives of humans are not as bad as you think."

The divine youth shrugged nonchalantly, "Perhaps."

Suddenly, Ye An changed the subject, asking, "How do you view humans?"

"View humans?" The divine youth pondered for a moment before saying, "They are a higher race among the many realms, stronger than most ordinary races."

Seeing the divine youth's casual demeanor, Ye An felt somewhat annoyed. He said, "You don't know that the human realm is now one of the Eight Realms, on par with the divine realm."

"What?" The divine youth burst into laughter, "Your human textbooks are quite amusing."

"Where is this 'Eight Realms'? There is only the divine realm, the only true realm."

Ye An was perplexed, "What about the demon race, the ghost race?"

"The demon realm and the ghost realm?" The divine youth shrugged, "Realms slightly stronger than the human realm, inhabited by very ugly creatures."

"What about the demon realm?"

"The realm where a group of animals not yet enlightened lives, a primitive forest."

Ye An possessed the ability to see slow-speed views, allowing him to clearly discern all micro-expressions.

The divine youth's eyes were extremely innocent and bright, devoid of any lies.

Ye An asked, "So in your textbooks, where does the divine realm stand among the many realms?"

"The position in the many realms?" The divine youth looked puzzled again, "The administrators, right?"
