Chapter 682 - Zhang Ba


There was neither sorrow nor any hint of joy in Shen Lian. He walked down slowly from the void and ignored the moon. However, the Lunar Deity no longer dared to stay and disappeared into the night sky.


Diqiu had fallen and one by one, the demons fade with the sandstorm following the death of Emperor Xia. The respected Diqiu and the once invincible Xia tribe fell in hands of one man. It was impossible for them to make a comeback.


A flowing light flashed, Jing Shu switched back to human form and landed next to Kui Li. She looked at Shen Lian and was unexplainably stunned as Shen Lian gave her the feeling that he was invisible.


It was as if no other person or anything could knock him down. This was, of course, an illusion but it was a deep unforgettable impression.


The huge dragon body in the void fell from the sky as if a stretch of the undulating mountain range just landed on the ground.


Shen Lian raised his hand gently and the descending speed of the dragon gradually reduced. Diqiu had turned into an abyss. The waters of the Netherworld came through the ground and flowed quietly. Nobody knew how deep it was.


Shen Lian asked Jing Shu, "Do you still want to eat the dragon meat?"


Jing Shu looked at Yinglong who maintained its dragon posture before death. The meteorites surrounding it was held by Shen Lian's mana. Jing Shu felt depressed and decided that this heroic dragon should not be consumed by her. She shook her head in response.


Shen Lian nodded his head and the meteorites and Yinglong fell deep into the abyss. A loud thumping sound was only heard moments later. This showed that the abyss was unpredictably deep.


The demonic heart in Shen Lian's palm shrunk and eventually turned into a bead. The color of the bead was as dark as night as if it could swallow any hints of light around it. He calmly kept the demonic beads in his sleeves and had cast his eyes on the distant Yinshang.


Jing Shu hesitated and said, "You are too strong now, but…."


Shen Lian interrupted her, "Do you think that I am going to be famous?"


Jing Shu responded, "Yes, but I think you should lay low for a while."


Shen Lian uttered leisurely, "Being anonymous is a choice, being invincible is also a choice, but I do not have a choice." What he said was true. Daoist Master Shangqing would never allow him to live a peaceful and calm life for the rest of his life. That was not the reason why Daoist Master Shangqqing selected him and it was also not Shen Lian's style.


Although there was a dull side to Shen Lian's temperaments, that does not mean that he could accept living on in degradation.


The hurricane stirred up the torrential rain in between the heaven and earth. It wanted to hide all traces of the battle in the storm. Besides that, it also symbolized that Shen Lian's future path would be a difficult one filled with rain and storm. He had run out of options ever since the day he chose to cultivate the Mastery of Senses.


Shen Lian stood under the rain in solitary. He did not avoid the rain and thought to himself, "This storm could be a little more violent."


Meanwhile, a storm also struck Zhaoge. Tianyi thought to himself, "The next storm will be even more violent."


The territory of Xia Kingdom still existed and the population of the Xia tribe was still considered big. However, Emperor Xia and Diqiu were no longer there. In other words, the Xia Kingdom had vanquished.


Only Yinshang, the Zhou nation, and perhaps the Underworld Demon Sect could be considered key players of the vast Netherworld. However, it was clear that Yinshang and the Zhou nation had become opposite forces.


Almost everyone could predict that it was just a matter of time before the fall of Yinshang.


This was because no one in Yinshang could match Shen Lian. None.


However, Shen Lian did not ride on his momentum and pursue Yinshang after killing Emperor Xia. Instead, he returned to the Zhou nation and nobody knew what he was up to.


It had been a hundred days ever since the death of Emperor Xia and something strange happened in the Zhou nation. In the past hundred days, there was not even a single droplet of rain in the Zhou nation. The once vigorous rivers were drying up at such an alarming speed that it was visible to the n.a.k.e.d eye. Su Xiuqing of the Way of the Celestial Masters created several Water Luring Runes Book and delivered it throughout the nation. And yet, it failed to lure even a single drop of water.


Also, the cultivators that specialized in Water Methods noticed that they were unable to communicate with the waters of the heaven and earth. The clouds above the sky still existed but as it entered the skies of the Zhou nation, it would disappear quickly.


The only type of water that continued to exist in the Zhou nation was the water of the Netherworld. But it was not consumable for humans.


The moisture on the earth reduced gradually and the people of the Zhou nation began to suffer. The lowly cultivated cultivators were also affected by it. Even if they cut off consuming grains, they would still need to drink the dew to cleanse their Dao body.


Because of that, Yi Zhi who was in charge of the state affairs was worried sick. He had no choice but to go and seek help from Shen Lian at the Biyou Palace.


Shen Lian's stature was hidden from view in the army tent of the Biyou Palace. After killing Emperor Xia, he had never set foot out of the palace. Thanks to the special characteristics of the Biyou Palace, no one could predict what would his next move be.


"Statesman Yi Zhi greets the king."


Shen Lian's clear voice could be heard from the army tent, "I know your purpose of this visit."


Yi Zhi responded with a solemn face, "Your Majesty, did you know that some something so strange would happen to the Zhou nation?"


Shen Lian answered, "Yes I did."


Yi Zhi felt a strong sense of relief. He would not know what to do if Shen Lian did not know the reason behind the phenomenon. After all, if someone like Shen Lian could not tell explain the incident, the matter would probably be unsolvable.


He asked, "Your Majesty, do you have the solution to the problem or any indications on how I can solve this issue?"


Shen Lian walked out from the army tent and Yi Zhi was shocked to see him. This was because Shen Lian's face was filled with demonic marks and it was extremely terrifying.


He had a black bead on his neck that was oozing demonic Qi, causing Yi Zhi to have strange feeling of being in a demonic territory. Fortunately, Shen Lian's crystal clear vision showed that his divine thoughts were not affected by the demonic Qi.


Shen Lian said, "Yi Zhi, were you stunned by my appearance? This is exactly why I did not step out of the palace. The Primeval Demonic Thoughts was indeed something. After a hundred days, I have yet to make it surrender completely to me."


Yi Zhi let out a sigh of relief as he found out that Shen Lian was fine. But this appearance sure was terrifying. If someone saw Shen Lian looking this, it would definitely have caused some drama.


Shen Lian continued, "The drought of the Zhou nation is not a natural disaster. The source of the disaster is rooted from the Xia Kingdom."


Yi Zhi said, "Your majesty, please elaborate more on it."


Shen Lian sat in the lotus position opposite of Yi Zhi and said, " The Xia Kingdom was founded by a Monarch named Si Wenming. When he started the nation, he had two very reliable assistants aside from the help from various ministers. One of them was Yinglong and Yinglong was of the Dragon Clan that could control water. That was why the Xia canal could exist in a place like Diqiu. The other assistant was Tian Nuba. No one knew of her origins but she had the power to deplete the water source of any place. Her powers are deeply unfathomable and she was also nicknamed as Hanba. She had been missing for a long time and now reappeared in secret. The drought of the Zhou nation is her work."
