Chapter 3122: The Culprit Translator: Legge Ah Xie was the little girl the Martial Dao Prime Body encountered in the dream. In other words, the Lord of the Beast Dao, Empress Evil. That encounter seemed like a dream. However, in reality, Su Zimo and Ah Xie relied on each other for an entire lifetime in that dream! He did not know if the real Empress Evil looked like Ah Xie in the dream. In that dream, Ah Xie’s heart was filled with innocence. She stubbornly believed in the Cycle of the Heavenly Dao-kind people should be rewarded and evil people should be punished. However, there was no such thing as the Cycle of the Heavenly Dao in the real world. If there was a Cycle of the Heavenly Dao, the Nine Heavens should have been destroyed long ago! If there was a Cycle of the Heavenly Dao, those ancient Great Emperors would not have died one after another and bear crimes for countless eras. If there was a Cycle of the Heavenly Dao, the person who hid behind the scenes and instigated the Battle of the Dragons and Phoenixes and the Battle of the Kuns and Pengs that resulted in the deaths of countless living beings in the battlefield should have received retribution long ago and would not have survived until now! However, the person was sitting right opposite him currently. The Martial Dao Prime Body had a feeling. The Netherworld and the Six Paths were inextricably linked. In fact, they were the ones who joined forces to launch the Heaven Conquest Battle against the Heavenly Court. However, Empress Evil was different from Great Emperor Heaven Burial in front of him. Their Daos were different. But, what about the Fiend Lord? What about Brahma Ghost Mother? The Martial Dao Prime Body did not interact much with them and it was difficult for him to make an accurate judgment. Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament was originally sipping his tea leisurely when he suddenly felt two burning gazes on him! “Hmm?” Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament raised his brows slightly and looked back without dodging! The Martial Dao Prime Body wore a silver mask and his expression could not be seen. Only his abyss-like eyes were revealed, seemingly calm. However, Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament felt a trace of hostility and killing intent in the depths of those eyes! “What do you want?” Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament narrowed his eyes and asked. The Martial Dao Prime Body did not answer directly. Instead, he said self-consciously, “Back on Dragon Island of the Dragon World, the Dragon World Lord was poisoned by the Psychosis Curse and had already lost his mind. Under such circumstances, the surrounding Dragons looked at him with fanatical admiration.” “At that time, I felt that this fanatical gaze was a little familiar. However, I could not remember it for a moment.” “Later on, after guessing your identity, I remembered that I had seen that gaze from the Buddhist monks who followed Heavenly Lord Six Brahma. Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament said, “Actually, there weren t many Dragons who were inflicted with the Psychosis Curse. “That’s right.” The Martial Dao Prime Body nodded. “However, you saw through their hearts and played with their humanity. You used the Dragon World Lord and some Psychosis Curse Puppets to incite the Dragon race to fight and make enemies everywhere. In the end, it culminated into the Battle of the Dragons and Phoenixes.” “Is this my fault?” Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament chuckled. “You have to know that I didn’t control many Dragons. In fact, I had no interest in controlling so many ants.” “I only gave the Dragon race a chance to release the evil in the depths of their hearts!” “The reason why that group of Dragons became filled with hatred and could not distinguish right from wrong was because they hid these dark things in the depths of their hearts. However, I gave them a chance to release them. A strange and terrifying smile appeared on Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament’s face once more as he said faintly, “Do you know? There’s a fiend imprisoned in everyone’s hearts. All I did was to open the door of this cage gently…” At that moment, Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament indeed gave the Martial Dao Prime Body an unprecedented fear! He was like a fiend hiding in the darkness, making use of the weaknesses of human nature to manipulate people’s hearts. In the end, he changed people beyond recognition, turning them cold-blooded and heartless! In fact, he did not even have to kill personally to cause countless living beings to die! The living beings of the ten thousand races were like puppets in front of him. Actually, the Sect Master of the Academy was also an expert in observing and controlling human nature. Back then, there was a group of disciples of Heaven and Earth Academy who revealed that same fanaticism when facing the Sect Master of the Academy. Even if the Sect Master of the Academy ordered them to kill their family and friends, they would not hesitate. Suddenly, the Martial Dao Prime Body said, “With your methods, you should be able to control the Sect Master of the Academy easily with the help of the Nether Calamity Poison and Psychosis Curse. To think that you would let him off so easily.” With Great Emperor Heaven Burial’s style and temperament, he should not miss such an opportunity. At the mention of this, Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament smiled and said, “At that time, when the Sect Master of the Academy came to look for me, I indeed had such thoughts.” “However, this person was too cautious. The one who came to see me was only a clone.” “In addition, the collaboration he proposed indeed tempted me. Over the years, there haven’t been many people who could make me admire them. After chatting for a while, I actually couldn’t bear to part with him, haha! The Martial Dao Prime Body was silent. No matter what, the Sect Master of the Academy was indeed capable to be able to escape unscathed from Great Emperor Heaven Burial. “Too many people died in the Battle of the Dragons and Phoenixes and the Battle of the Kuns and Pengs.” The Martial Dao Prime Body sighed faintly. Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament could tell that there was something wrong with the Martial Dao Prime Body’ s tone and the meaning behind his words. He asked expressionlessly, “You want to seek justice for them?” “Someone has to pay for this debt.” The Martial Dao Prime Body said indifferently. “And you want me to do that?” Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament leaned forward slightly and stared fixedly at the Martial Dao Prime Body. He said slowly, “Many people from the Witch World, Poison World and Blood World have died as well. I haven’t settled that debt with you as well!” The Martial Dao Prime Body had a calm expression. “They deserved to die. That was the price they had to pay.” “Hahahaha!” Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament suddenly burst into laughter. Then, his expression changed. “They deserved to die, but the ants of the Dragon World, Parasol Tree World and the other thousands of worlds don’t?” “You have to know that once the Heaven Conquest Battle begins, these worlds will stand on the side of the Heavenly Court and block our path to them.” “Since we can’t avoid fighting them, I merely used some tricks in advance to have them kill each other. That way, our Heaven Conquest Battle will be smoother.” “Desolate Martial, let me tell you.” Immortal Emperor Nine Firmament said coldly, “No one cares about the lives of the ten thousand races of the medium chiliocosm. In the eyes of the ? Heavenly Court, they’re just a group of ants whose lives are worthless!” “Due to the Nine Heavens Formation, every Heaven Conquest Battle has to pass through the medium chiliocosm. The Heavenly Court will let the living beings of the medium chiliocosm charge ahead and stop us from conquering the Heavenly Court.” “There was originally no need to involve the living beings of the medium chiliocosm in this matter. From the beginning to the end, we only had one goal —to crush the Heavenly Court.” “It was the Heavenly Court who implicated the medium chiliocosm and caused catastrophe after catastrophe!” “The so-called chaos of the medium chiliocosm and the catastrophe of the world were all caused by the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Court is the true culprit!”
