Celestial Peak

Chapter 467: Talking it through

Chang Ping who had been watching from the side could no longer tolerate the degree of this measly misunderstanding. She took off her mask and fought back the killing intent with her own, "Butler Sun!"

Sun Wu's eyes opened wide seeing Chang Ping, "Chang Ping?"

"He's the real First Young Master of the Wang Family! He's not a Revenant!"

"Is no, you have been missing for months after the Red Dawn World fell to the hands of the Abyssal Demons!" He bit his lower lip to the point of blood spurting out, "We do not even know the extent of what a Revenant could do, you could be one as well!"

"What!?" Chang Ping's qi surged.

Frustrating as it was. Sun Wu spoke with a clear and rational head. His words rang true. The Revenants were new enemies, they came from the Abyss bearing the face of the deceased, and Chang Ping who had been missing for so long could as well be a Revenant.

[It's impossible right?] Sun Wu was already wavering with his thoughts. But he continued his smile, the intent to kill did not subside the least bit and he just stared at the young lady before him, thinking, [Don't be fooled again, Sun Wu.]

Qinyang could feel the sensation of the killing intent ravaging her senses, it made her feel as though her skin was lacerated by invisible blades. She looked at the calm Sun Wu making his preparations, Qinyang took a deep breath.

Sun Wu saw Qinyang and shook his head, "Young Lady, this is a God's Domain, an Emperor's Domain will be crushed here in moments, do you think you can match me?" Sun Wu worriedly stated.

Anyone could create their own domain after setting foot on the Seventh Rank of cultivation, [Soul Revolution Realm] and like its name, a domain was very much affected by a cultivator's soul.

This Era had Nine Realms of Cultivation and it was separated into two distinctive parts, the Mortal Path, and the Ascension Path.

The first five paths were meant for Mortals, and the last four that's known as the [Four Steps to Ascension] or the [Ascension Realms], was for those who would become the soldiers in the Allied Forces.

The Four Steps of Ascension would start at the Sixth-Rank of cultivation or was also known as, the:

First Step/Sixth-Rank: Immortality Nirvana. 

The first step, like any other, was by the doorway, and beyond that would be the start of the true journey. And from the Second Step and beyond, a cultivator would be able to craft their very own.

Second Step/Seventh-Rank: Soul Revolution Realm A Ruler's Domain. 

Third Step/Eighth-Rank: Seizing Stars Realm A King's Domain

Fourth Step/Ninth-Rank: Heaven and Hell Harmony Realm An Emperor's Domain.

Underneath her mask, Qinyang smiled, "I respect and idolized the great Slaughter Emperor, but do not look down upon me. You're not the only one who can create a God-Class Domain."

Qinyang clasped her hands together, but before she could do anything, the twins already dragged her back to where the others were, "You know the condition, Young Miss, activating your God's Domain is a giant no.:

"But."

"Don't say anything else, you know you can't change our mind. Now go and rest there, we know you have grown to love to fight, but we don't care. We follow the deal." The twins now at the forefront looked at Sun Wu, "A God's Domain? As expected of the Slaughter Emperor, he's long past the Ascension Phase and already walks an original path." The twins stated calmly.

By this time, Sun Wu was already apprehensive. He had been listening to their words very carefully, and from what he could tell, the presence of a God's Domain was not enough to shake them the least bit.

This led to many possibilities, and one of these possibilities managed to shake Sun Wu to his core, [Stop deluding yourself, Sun Wu the First Young Master had been dead for millennia, he's not coming back now.] his grip on his spear tightened.

"So, are you two going to commence a God's Domain of your own? Or will you allow me to kill the Revenant behind you? Remember, the entire Alliance is seeking out the Revenants to be killed. They are growing stronger by the day, after all."

The twins turned their heads to the left, "Now, that we know that you are someone that's at the peak of the food chain, please explain to us why are you not using your brain?"

Their question managed to trigger Sun Wu, "How impertinent, some young whippersnappers dare say that to me? Do you long I had lived?" 

"We do not know, but surely can't be any longer than ten thousand years." The twins moved their qi, heavy white mist escaped from their palms, the twins saw Sun Wu's eyes wavering, "That's good to see that you're reacting in this way. Now, as you had said, let's talk this out, shall we?"

Their tone was flat and uncaring about the status of the person before them. It was borderline condescending, but Sun Wu didn't mind, his thoughts were racing and his eyes were wavering. The Domain reacted to his emotions; its integrity began to crumble as his killing intent slowly withered away.

"Origin Water Art: Misty Curtain." The twins replaced the Domain to cover themselves.

Sun Wu wanted to believe, but the scar on his right stomach ached, reminding him of his folly, "Prove who you are! The Revenants had also shown capable of attracting people around them like the First Young Master! 

"I had encountered many of you before! You Revenants have proven your dubiousness before, attacked the Master and the Madam!"

Sun Wu's angered voice echoed, he could still remember it, the time when the Revenants appeared before them, bearing the face of the First Young Master. They were happy to see him, the family came to embrace him only to be attacked.

This happened long before the name of Revenant came to be, it could be said that the Wang Family was the one who experienced it first.

Wang Ling tossed the mask he had to the side; he crossed the distance separating them. He was silent, his eyes empty.

He appeared before Sun Wu.

The loyal Butler wanted to raise his spear in defense, but those pair of lifeless eyes met with his own. 

"They attacked you, and my parents?" Wang Ling's voice was soft, eerily so. 

Listening to Sun Wu, Wang Ling learned of two things, that his parents were still alive and that the Revenants appeared attacked them before. 

He was calm as he asked for confirmation.

When that tone entered Sun Wu's ears, he was made to answer, "Yes." 

It was weird, but, a single memory appeared, a time when Wang Ling also turned into an object of reverence and fear in the Celestial Spirit Realm. That time, was when Wang Yue was kidnapped by the Xie Family.

Wang Ling stood before Sun Wu, silent, his eyes without life, and when the confirmation appeared 

The mist surrounding them that was formed from the Origin Water quickly parted because and for a second, the idea of his bloodied family appeared in his mind.

The fragments of the Blood Seeker Sword resonated with Wang Ling's heart and in a matter of seconds, a portion of the Origin Land turned blood red!

"THOSE! FUCKING!! BASTARDS!!!"

Wang Ling shouted at the top of his lungs his eyes turning red from rage!
