Supreme Uprising

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master's gaze was cold!

Even though the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master's words had tempted him slightly, Nalanye's words had thoroughly cleared any warmth he had felt.

What Nalanye had said was absolutely right. If Nalanye had fallen, then Ancient Underworld Hall, who lorded over the Mysterious Underworld Race, would definitely have beaten down Sky Martial Underworld Hall.

Furthermore, he wouldn't have been able to keep his position as the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master.

This was such a predictable outcome. Were they now expecting him to go lenient for the sake of the greater good? Wasn't all this just too silly?

The rancor he had in his heart against the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master increased when he recalled the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master's words.

The Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master was also flustered as he pointed at Nalanye. "Nalanye, I was advising your hall master to take the bigger picture into consideration, yet you are trying to cause trouble. Could you be a Human Race spy?"

Luo Yunyang didn't fear this in the slightest, as he knew that these were merely words that the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master had said in anger.

At once, he rebutted this. "Hall Master, your slandering ability is really impressive! Unfortunately, you should use your brains to think first before trying to slander me."

The Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master was particularly pissed upon seeing Nalanye criticize him in such an impudent manner. However, he too realized that he had gone slightly overboard with his words.

He had merely been angry. Nalanye was really something. His existence had caused the present situation of the Mysterious Underworld Race.

After taking a deep breath, the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master glanced at the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master. "Sky Martial, you should properly think through what I just said. As long as you are willing to avoid fighting, we are willing to support you in becoming the deputy head of the six underworld halls. What do you say?"

Deputy head of the six underworld halls? This position did not sound decent.

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master glanced at the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master and said icily, "Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master, do you think I care about being a deputy head?"

"What I want is accountability. Accountability that Ancient Underworld Hall ought to give us!" The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master glared at the Ancient Underworld Hall Master and said frostily, "If Ancient Underworld Hall doesn't give me an explanation, then I will get it myself!"

After he said that, he looked over at the Sky Gold Underworld Hall Master and the Sky Moon Underworld Hall Master. Although he didn't say anything, his gaze seemed to be soliciting their opinion.

Both the Sky Moon Underworld Hall Master and the Sky Gold Underworld Hall Master nodded their heads. Clearly, these two approved of what the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master had said.

The Ancient Underworld Hall Master was also sullen. In the past, the authority of the entire Mysterious Underworld Race had rested in his hands.

However, war and peace were now totally under the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master's control.

The Ancient Underworld Hall Master was merely a signboard.

Even though he was thoroughly displeased, he still endured this. However, he couldn't keep listening to the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master's overbearing words. Thus, he spoke up icily. "If you want to fight, then bring it on! What is the point of being so long-winded?"

Many people's faces fell when this was said. After all, this meant that there was no more margin for peace.

The Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master looked at the Ancient Underworld Hall Master while the Ancient Underworld Hall Master returned his cold gaze.

His intent was clear as day. This decision had been made by the Ancient Underworld Hall Master, who wouldn't sway once he made a decision.

Even though the Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master wasn't too pleased with the Ancient Underworld Hall Master's decision, he knew that it was very difficult to redeem the situation when he saw the Sky Sun Underworld Hall Master shaking his head.

After all, the Sky Martial Underworld Hall's request was something the Ancient Underworld Hall Master couldn't accept.

Although the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master held the advantage here, Ancient Underworld Hall was still the strongest of the six great underworld halls. Although it was at a disadvantage at the moment, it was still difficult to determine which side would come out on top.

The Ancient Underworld Hall Master couldn't lower his head right now.

If he did, not only would he be the greatest sinner of Ancient Underworld Hall, but his status would also be shaken.

Even within Ancient Underworld Hall, some people wanted to take his place.

"Ha ha ha! Sagu, you have finally become more unyielding. Very good. Since you want to fight, Sky Martial Underworld Hall will accompany you to the very end!"

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master then said, "Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master, Sky Sun Underworld Hall Master. Are the two of you going to fight with Sky Martial Underworld Hall? I have always treated you two as friends."

The Sky Intellect Underworld Hall Master and the Sky Sun Underworld Hall Master had made their decision even before the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master had spoken.

They quickly exchanged a glance upon hearing the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master's words. The Sky Sun Underworld Hall Master said, "Since the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master values our friendship, it would seem a little petty if our two halls did not accompany you."

"What I want to tell the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master is that he should not underestimate Ancient Underworld Hall. After all, it is the number one underworld hall of the Mysterious Underworld Race."

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master flashed him a faint smile. "Sky Martial Underworld Hall prides itself in the martial ways. However, we have never looked down on any underworld hall ever. Since you have already made your choice regarding this fight, don't blame me for what is about to happen."

The Ancient Underworld Hall Master didn't speak again. Instead, he led the Sky Intellect Hall Master and the Sky Sun Underworld Hall Master away with him.

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master finally relaxed when only their side was left. He glanced at Luo Yunyang and said, "Deputy Hall Master Nalanye, the entire Sky Martial Underworld Hall has to thank you this time."

"If you hadn't slain Jiuzi Xuanming, Sky Martial Underworld Hall would have fallen to a point we could never have recovered from. Deputy Hall Master Nalanye, accept my kowtow!"

Luo Yunyang knew that the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master was doing this to win his favor, but there was no lack of sincerity in his gesture either.

His current status in Sky Martial Underworld might have been stable, but he had still pretended to be coy and rejected the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master's suggestion. "Don't stand on ceremony, Hall Master. I really can't accept it."

"I was able to defeat Jiuzi Xuanming this time mainly because of your guidance and grooming." Luo Yunyang went on. "If you had not allowed me to obtain the Second Ancient Yuan Underworld Lord's inheritance, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to go head-to-head against Jiuzi Xuanming."

"If you hadn't let me cultivate the Sky Martial Divine Bowl, I, Nalanye, wouldn't have obtained the inherited techniques of the Sky Martial Divine Bowl and wouldn't have been able to kill Jiuzi Xuanming."

"Therefore, I should be thanking you, Hall Master."

A bright smile was plastered on the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master's face. He had started to get a little worried ever since Nalanye had killed Jiuzi Xuanming. He had been afraid that Nalanye might no longer listen to his orders given his disgusting and overwhelming power!

However, it looked like the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master had been worried for no reason. Nalanye wasn't prideful. He had instantly credited the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master himself for this, which made the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master feel very pleased.

Meanwhile, Luo Yunyang had even taken out the two ultimate treasures he had obtained from Jiuzi Xuanming and handed them to the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master. "Hall Master, please accept these spoils from my fight with Jiuzi Xuanming!"

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master was tempted when he saw the ultimate treasures glowing with a purple brilliance. He had seen these two ultimate treasures clearly when Jiuzi Xuanming had wielded them, especially the Mandala Lotus, which was an ultimate defensive weapon. It could be said that stepping on the Mandala Lotus was akin to having an extra life.

However, even though he really liked them, he also knew that he couldn't accept these two treasures no matter what.

Nalanye's decision to give them to the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master was showing him sufficient respect. Even though Nalanye's cultivation base wasn't stronger than his own, he ought to treat him the way he had dealt with the Sky Moon Underworld Hall Master and the others.

Therefore, while many covetous eyes were watching, the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master chuckled. "Nalanye, Sky Martial Underworld Hall has always had one rule. Any items seized belong to the person who obtained them."

"These two ultimate treasures should be yours to begin with. Furthermore, they are suitable for you to use."

After he said that, the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master said in an unquestionable tone, "You should never let go of things that belong to you."

Luo Yunyang, who had known that the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master would say this, no longer continued his charade. He only replied respectfully, "In that case, thank you, Hall Master!"

The Sky Gold Underworld Hall Master and the Sky Moon Underworld Hall Master looked at the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master enviously. They were envious of the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master for having such an impressive subordinate as Nalanye.

His cultivation base was not inferior to theirs, yet he was still extremely loyal to the Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master. Such a subordinate was hard to find.

They exchanged a glance before the Sky Gold Underworld Hall Master spoke. "Since we have already fallen out with the Ancient Underworld Hall Master, the most important thing to do right now is gain the support of the Nine Underworld Armies."

"The three of us together can control four armies, while there are also four people that are loyal to Ancient Underworld Hall."

"If we gain the support of Commander Golden Mysterious Lord and his army, which is fighting the Human Race, we will be set."

"If the Golden Mysterious Lord supports Ancient Underworld Hall, then things won't look good for us."

The Sky Martial Underworld Hall Master and the others all became solemn when the Sky Gold Underworld Hall Master said that. Luo Yunyang also had a grave look on his face.

The Golden Mysterious Lord wasn't unfamiliar. Back in the Dual Realm Sky, the Golden Mysterious Lord's move had caused the Human Race great trouble.

After coming to the Mysterious Underworld Race, Luo Yunyang had never come into contact with the Golden Mysterious Lord again. Now, the Golden Mysterious Lord had finally appeared in Luo Yunyang's line of sight.

Even though he was rather interested in the Golden Mysterious Lord, he also knew that he didn't know much and might slip up if he said too much.

Therefore, Luo Yunyang chose to remain silent on this matter.

"I have some relation to the Golden Mysterious Lord. How about you let me handle it?" The Sky Moon Underworld Hall Master paused momentarily before saying, "However, the Golden Mysterious Lord was even closer to Jiuzi Xuanming!"
