Chapter 1142: Chapter 694: Blood Bridge Chapter 1142 -694: Blood Bridge Yu Dahe, his eyes nearly splitting with rage, trembled and said, “What did you say?” Master She sneered sinisterly, “These two children, you cannot save them. Their Divine Souls have already been sacrificed to the Divine Lord!” Mo Hua pretended not to understand and looked puzzled, “What on earth is a Divine Lord?” Master She was slightly annoyed and cursed inwardly. Ignorant child, speaking nonsense, daring to desecrate the Divine Lord, I will make sure you receive Divine Punishment and beg for death that will not come! Yet, he suppressed his anger, his voice indifferent, his expression reverent: “The Divine Lord is the lord of thousands of deities, the supreme ruler who reigns over all beings!” Mo Hua then understood that Master She was just a half-baked follower. He did not actually know what or who the Master of the Great Wilderness, the Divine Lord, was but considered it a noble deity worthy of his worship. Mo Hua, with a look of disdain, said, “Old fool, what are you blabbering about? What divine lord of all deities, what supreme ruler?” “People are the most intelligent of all beings, where are these deities you speak of? I’ve never seen any.” Master She glanced at Mo Hua with contempt and sneered: “People with mortal eyes cannot see the true world, nor understand the grandeur of the Divine Way.” Mo Hua snorted, “Just spouting nonsense.” Master She disdained to argue with such an ignorant youth, but as he stared at Mo Hua, his crazed eyes revealed a trace of sharpness and confusion. He had found it odd before. Who exactly was this kid? If he was not mistaken, these people should be the Hawk Dogs of the Taoist Court. As for what scent the Taoist Court’s dogs had caught, to break through numerous dangers, set an ambush, and capture his group… Master She couldn’t figure it out. But at this point, pondering was meaningless. The top priority was to escape. Master She surveyed the cultivators before him. The most surprising to him was this young boy. Among the cultivators of the Taoist Court, why blend in such a boy with faint Blood Qi and merely at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment? This was strange. Moreover, looking at the boy’s delicate and arrogant demeanor, clearly he was someone coddled and inexperienced in hardship. Other cultivators from the Taoist Court also seemed quite indulgent towards him. Could he be a scion of a Great Family, blending into the Taoist Court early to accumulate Merit Points and “gild” himself, laying out a splendid future? The more Master She thought about it, the more it seemed likely, and he sneered inwardly. Truly seeking death! Trying to earn Merit Points, only to come to this mortal hell. Probably unaware of how many ways there are to spell “death”… Master She silently watched Mo Hua, a cynical smile briefly crossing his eyes. Mo Hua, feeling a flicker of Divine Sense, detected Master She’s chilling hatred. His eyebrows slightly raised, but his face remained expressionless, still wearing a brazen and domineering look. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮 Meanwhile, on the other side, upon hearing the children were beyond saving, Yu Dahe turned pale, his hands holding the children trembled uncontrollably. Gu An seeing this, kicked Master She, drew a knife, and held it to his throat, coldly saying: “Old fool, speak! What must be done to save these two children?” Master She issued a disgust-invoking chuckle, yet remained silent. Mo Hua, seeing Master She’s bizarre demeanor, got a bit angry and menacingly threatened: “Old coot, if you don’t speak, I’ll burn all your hair off, strip your skin, and turn you into a bare ‘beggar chicken’.” Master She sinisterly said: “Young boy, listen to my advice, don’t be too impetuous.” Mo Hua, without another word, formed a Fireball, ready to burn Master She’s hair, intending to scorch him right there. Master She, eyes full of disbelief, his voice pitched high: “Stop—” What kind of upbringing does this kid have? Why act this way? Mo Hua, his little hand holding the hot Fireball, placed it near Master She’s hair, and demanded: “Will you speak?” Master She, furious beyond restraint, yet quickly calmed down and said resignedly: “I can tell you, but you might not believe.” Mo Hua said, “Just speak.” Master She, eyes full of resentment towards Mo Hua, then helplessly said: “This matter is actually simple…” “The River God requires a sacrifice.” “I have already sacrificed the Divine Souls of these two—children, to the River God.” “These children, although they are sacrifices, it doesn’t necessarily have to be these children.” “Just select two living people, use them as the new sacrifices, personally take them to the ‘altar’, and exchange them to retrieve these children’s Divine Souls, and naturally, they can be revived…” Mo Hua’s heart stirred. Taken to… the altar? The altar! Not the altar in the unfinished Demon Palace, but the one that has been built and in operation for hundreds of years! Mo Hua’s heart shuddered, but he kept his composure and doubted aloud: “Old coot, you’re lying!” “I might believe you about the existence of deities in this world. But earlier you mentioned the Divine Lord, now the River God, you’re so inconsistent, who really is the master of you old dog?” Master She, furious, wished he could slice Mo Hua a thousand times, but still contained his rage, and indifferently said: “The River God is an incarnation of my Divine Lord.” “The presence of the River God is, in essence, the Divine Lord himself.” Mo Hua instantly understood, combining theological knowledge and the sights from the fishing village, he roughly grasped the situation. The River God is the River God, the Great Wilderness Evil God is the Great Wilderness Evil God, they are distinctly different. However, the Great Wilderness Evil God has tainted the former River God. Thus, the current River God has become an avatar of the Great Wilderness Evil God.
