The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 1027 - 483: Taiqing’s Secret (Part 2)

Rhein raised his eyes and asked, "Did something inexplicable happen?"

Platinum waved his hand and said, "Okay, we did some manipulation."

Rhein’s eyes slightly narrowed with surprise, he hadn’t expected that’s how he had won back then.

"The death of Light is also intricately connected to us. Back then, he was ordered to perform a secret mission, heading to the deepest part of Buzhou Mountain. No one knew what Master wanted him to investigate, but he eventually offended the Supreme God. Naturally, for a mission of this level, there would surely be an emergency plan."

Platinum licked his lips, "And Silver and Gold were his backup."

Rhein’s eyes flickered as he hoarsely said, "So Silver and Gold never showed up."

There are too many reasons for such a thing.

For instance, the temporal turbulence intercepted the two Catastrophes, Gold and Silver, on their way to aid.

Or perhaps the Blood-hued Supreme shattered the entire space-time, making timely support impossible.

After all, it was Buzhou Mountain, and no one could clear up the truth.

Gold and Silver could even resort to a ruse of injuring themselves to prove their innocence.

There are too many methods.

No one could point fingers at them for anything.

After all, they were facing the Blood-hued Supreme.

"Yes, as for Jizi Chuan’s betrayal, that was indeed beyond our expectations, and the plan against him naturally couldn’t be used. Later, we planned many things, like the Night Watchers Faction’s coup, and the so-called Blood Moon Slaughter Incident. With the Bai Ze Clan’s support, we could effectively devise plans for the future."

Platinum said indifferently, "The entire Order World is actually still under our control. Of course, the reason we could win is that Master couldn’t spare much energy to deal with these matters. I always felt that she’s been troubled by something over the years, that thing consumed too much of her time."

This was the first time Rhein realized how terrifying his father was.

Even the old face became much more unfamiliar in his eyes.

"Father."

He suddenly asked, "Is The Order of the Hidden you?"

It was a groundbreaking question.

Platinum raised an eyebrow and countered, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Rhein slightly frowned.

"The so-called Order of the Hidden was just a fabricated charge, concocted by Qing and Chi back then to eliminate dissent, a boring story. I just never expected, even Master liked to play this trick."

Platinum waved his hand dismissively, "The world has always been cloaked by our will."

If The Order of the Hidden really existed, how could their plans have gone so smoothly all these years?

In his view, it was just some people pretending to be ghosts.

The whispering voice from the depths of hell echoed once again, sunlight filtering through the leaves became eerily dark, the mist in the cemetery grew deeper, the color seemed to turn black and white.

Rhein suppressed the palpitating feeling, seemingly able to see a pair of withered hands reaching for him.

"I don’t deny that the things we’ve done can’t see the light of day. However, those who achieve great things don’t bother with trifles, just as for the sake of the Supreme Position, Master killed the teacher. We are people who stand at the top of the world, inevitably using some despicable means. You must understand, the world is ultimately about the victor being the hero, the defeated the villain. Winning makes you a hero, losing makes you a scoundrel." Platinum looked at him with a meaningful gaze.

Rhein clasped his hands behind his back, gazing at the tombstone, and after a long while, exhaled deeply.

"I understand."

He hesitated for a moment before seriously asking, "Will the Primordial ever be resurrected one day?"

Platinum touched his chin and pondered, "Hard to say, the Divine Ruins in the Qilin Immortal Palace have already fallen silent, it’s unknown when it will open again. I don’t know whether, in the Master’s condition, he can use the authority left by the Qilin Venerable to resurrect. But as long as we continue ruling the world, there will always be a way."

The old man patted his shoulder, "I know Master’s state is quite sinister, even I’m unnerved, let alone you. However, this is our trump card. In Master’s legacy, the scriptures containing the Mysteries of Heavenly Beings, only Master can decipher it. Try to feel his will, and you can go further."

Rhein forcibly suppressed the deep emotions within, also attempting to reach out, stroking the tombstone.

There was a vague whisper in his ear, like a distant call.

So enticing.

Yet so terrifying.

"The You Ying Law’s path, your senior brother and sister will guide you. I will release a precious high-level evolver from the Black Prison, and by merging with his Holy Corpse, you will be able to grasp the Primordial Return."

Platinum’s eyes were increasingly filled with pride, he smiled with satisfaction, "Once you merge the Heavenly Person Seed, mastering the power of Heavenly Personification, you will become the most powerful human in the world. Don’t forget, the Ancestor from the Cheng Family is still in our hands, you will have no hidden dangers. You will replace me, standing at the pinnacle of this world!"

At sunset, Platinum walked out of the cemetery, a shadow cloaked in black robes appeared faintly in the mist.

"Tianji."

He asked solemnly, "Has there been any news from the Heavenly Destiny Pavilion?"

"After the Lu Shu’s Ancestor was sealed, the Heavenly Destiny Pavilion fell silent."

The First Saint opened his eyes in the mist, his voice rough and unpleasant like iron scraping against stone, replied, "And ever since Thunder held the press conference, it has caused an uproar worldwide. The Transcendent powers of various countries are restless, they might not be willing to work for us anymore."

"Those people are just jumping clowns, not worth fearing."

Platinum disdainfully waved his hand, "How is the situation at Buzhou Mountain?"

The First Saint hoarsely replied, "The Heavenly Fire God General is dead, all forces stationed at the Pamir Plateau are annihilated. A terrifying war is breaking out in the Ancient God Realm of Buzhou Mountain, that woman named Skylark is almost unstoppable, even many ancient Candle Dragon Clan members consider her a true God."

The statement is easy to understand, the Ancient Gods of the Candle Dragon Clan believe that mysterious woman is their Master!

"Will the Canglong Ancestor ever reach this day?"

Platinum murmured, "Luckily Buzhou Mountain erupted into chaos, otherwise it would be a huge threat to us."

The First Saint said in a deep voice, "President, what Skylark can achieve, Qilin can as well..." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Platinum’s eyes turned deep.

Indeed, Skylark and Qilin are beings of equal stature, even though the Rank is somewhat perceptive.

Skylark can command the ancient Candle Dragon Clan.

That young man can command the ancient Qilin Clan!

The critical point is that Qilin is already at the Sixth Rank, his combat power has surpassed the Holy Land Level.

When he arrives at Magic City, all the Holy Land Level of the Ether Association will be under threat of death.

"We should have killed him at all costs back then."

Platinum seemed to be annoyed as he rubbed his forehead, then ordered, "Temporarily seal the news of Qilin’s advancement, don’t cause panic internally. Qing and Chi will land at Hongqiao Airport at 1:40 PM, Gold and Silver will intercept them. Inform Chen Xingli to strictly monitor the area around Magic City, preventing enemy forces from invading."

At this point, they can only delay.

Once Rhein achieves the Third Law, then he’ll have the capital to exhaust Qing and Chi.

Of course, Platinum has a secret weapon, which is the corpse of the teacher in the cemetery.

"Understood."

Tianji silently vanished into the mist, disappearing without a trace.

Platinum was left standing in the dim twilight, listening to the Bell of the Central Spirit Core Institute, his mood inexplicably heavy.

After a long time, he took a phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

"Something wrong?"

An old voice sounded on the phone, "I told you, last time was the last time I’ll help you."

"Senior Lin Zhengchun, there’s something I want to ask your divination about."

Platinum smiled, "I want to know, whose hands hold the Heavenly Person’s Wedge?"
