Chapter 748 – Hostile World of Protagonists (2)

Three days quickly passed by.

While Miaomiao was busy paving cement for his new house's floor while inseminating semen in Xiong Zhenzhen and Liu Guang's bellies with his transformed tentacle genitals, four battleships with Shu Han's insignia flew over Pirate Hunter City. They flew from the northeast to the southwest, heading toward the southern sea.

Miaomiao hid his aura and looked up. He noticed Guan Yu's presence among the cultivators on the ships. Moreover, he detected several immortals and the aura signature of Hongjun.

RUMBLE

Something invisible stabbed Miaomiao's chest, but it was stopped before it reached his heart. Miaomiao groaned and forcefully ejected the invisible needle that had appeared out of nowhere.

Miaomiao pulled his tentacles back and transformed into a regular angel. He stopped hiding his presence and glared at the assailant, who was standing at the bow of the Shu Han's flagship.

On the bow, an old man in white robes looked down at Miaomiao. He gently stroked his beard and snorted.

"Consider yourself lucky. Had I been in my top condition, you would have died, Mao Miaomiao."

Miaomiao glared at Hongjun, "The venerable great dao sage resorts sneak attacks these days? I see that you've fallen low, Lao Tzu."

"True. I've fallen because of you and Mu-Nyang. That's why we will do anything in our power to kill you and your family!"

"…"

Miaomiao almost thanked Hongjun for telling him their plans. Still, he didn't think that Hongjun could easily make blunders like this for no reason.

He looked at his chest and the invisible needle. As Miaomiao inspected the needle closely, he noticed that it was wrapped around with a string of karma.

That karma also contained a memory of Hongjun. Miaomiao scanned through it and discovered two messages.

<Beware of Nian and non-player protagonists.

<The players are our real enemies. We should not fight each other.

"…"

Miaomiao didn't know why Hongjun warned him about Nian, but he appreciated the gesture nonetheless. He looked at the battleships and found that Guan Yu and other immortals had already noticed his presence, but Hongjun stopped them from pursuing Miaomiao.

Among the crew, Miaomiao recognized another faint aura of someone he had seen in his previous life.

Zhuge Liang

'That traitor!'

Zhuge Liang had been standing next to Liu Xuande and Guan Yu. He also looked down at the destroyed city and Miaomiao while he flexed the feather fan in his hand.

'I don't know what you're planning, but I have no intention of being friendly with you lots. Tricks and strategies cannot compete against absolute strength!'

Miaomiao snapped his finger and covered his manor with his dark domain.

.

When the dark dome appeared and blocked their vision, Hongjun and the immortals on the ship clicked their tongues.

"Lord Hongjun. Why don't we attack Mao Miaomiao right now? We have enough manpower to kill that man and complete Lord Pangu's assignment!"

Everybody on the ships could hear Liu Xuande's loud noise. They turned toward Hongjun as they were curious as well.

"We can, but how many of you will be sacrificed this time?"

Hongjun shook his head and turned to Zhuge Liang, who had been grinning from ear to ear.

The strategist tapped Liu Xuande's shoulder to get his attention. He then explained.

"It was my idea that we shouldn't fight Mao Miaomiao right now."

"What?! Why?!" Liu Xuande and Guan Yu were unhappy with their strategist's new policy.

"From what we know, Mao Miaomiao's strength is at least five to ten major realms higher than his current strength. From what we measured earlier, his strength is equivalent to a 2-star stellar constellation immortal. But in reality, his combat strength is stronger than any 10-star immortal. If we fight him now, we will lose 90% of our immortals here, and Lord Hongjun might even die in this fight."

"Huh?!"

Liu Xuande and Guan Yu couldn't believe Zhuge Liang. They looked at Hongjun in disbelief.

Hongjun nodded, "I launched a sneak attack on Mao Miaomiao with my full strength, but Mao Miaomiao doesn't even flinch. Do you think we will have a chance when he's fully prepared?"

"…"

"That's why I laid traps for Mao Miaomiao. If he falls for it, then we're good. If he doesn't, we can buy a bit of time to recuperate and restore our country's military strength."

"… I still don't get it."

Hongjun gave up on Liu Xuande's intelligence. He sighed, "In short, I distracted him with my karma law just now. We will head south to join forces with Kishin Douji and reform our troops. Once we manage to gather at least 1,000 immortals and one of us becomes a god, we will coordinate with the players on the mainland to destroy Mao Miaomiao and his ally's forces again."

Hongjun stopped looking at his subordinates. He gazed toward the northwest, where he had contacted a certain protagonist. He muttered to himself.

"Even if those messages are my ploy, I didn't lie about the protagonist. That man's luck is getting stronger now."

3,000 kilometers west of Chengdu

Beyond the wasteland, a mountain oasis and pink trees were hidden in the thick dust storm. In the forest of plum trees, bright buildings were the home of the wasteland's vagrants. Surrounding the oasis city, ten sects formed a formation, protecting the only city in their country.

Huashan Sect, Southern Edge Sect, Emei Sect, Wudang Sect, and six major sects held absolute power and produced a hundred immortals to protect their only sanctuary.

In Huashan Sect, a certain youth had been coaching his fellow disciples and forcing them to run while carrying heavy boulders. While the youth was busy, he heard a voice transmission from his new master – Pangu!

'The time has come, Xie Tian. In a few days, there will be a global arena event. You will take part in that event and kill your nemesis, Mao Miaomiao!'

Xie Tian smirked. His black aura and his black robes wiggled as if they were alive. On the back of his cloak, a thousand eyes moved around while his black dragon saber howled as if it was delighted.

"Is it time?"

'It is.'

"Good."

Xie Tian burst into laughter. He flew to the sky and kept climbing the altitude. In a few minutes, he got out of the atmosphere and stopped there, looking down on the massive planet.

Xie Tian's pupils and sclera turned black. His blood vessels darkened, and his skin turned grey. His physique got larger as his Mazinger Bloodline and physique reacted to his emotion.

As Xie Tian transformed, his heart pounded as the trapped soul of Xie Tian with the silver Qi tried to break out from the prison.

"Stay there, you idiot. How did you join forces with your enemy in your previous life!? You're a disgrace among us!"

'Let me out, you imposter!'

"Imposter my ass. I'm you, and you're me. We are one!"

'But you're not me! You're from the older timeline!'1

"Shut it, you incompetent fool! Your time is over. From now on, we will correct things how they should be! We are supposed to become the top dog in this universe, and we must kill Devil, Kishin Douji, Pangu, Mu-Nyang, Mao Miaomiao, and everybody in our way! We are destined to be the strongest cultivator in the universe, not them!" 

Xie Tian's aura expanded as he absorbed the stars' energies. Seven of his stellar stars in the new universe hummed as they provided Death Essence to Xie Tian, who retained the memories of all 25 million timelines.
