There's Something Wrong With This Account

By the creek behind the mountain, Lu Xun and the Junior Priest fell into a long silence.

Just as the Junior Priest had said, he was the key to open the road towards Heavenly Dust. Even though his hands weren’t stained with any blood, those who were killed by the foreign race were, more or less, connected to him.

They stood on different grounds, and hence could not arrive at a solution through discussion.

The Junior Priest looked at his reflection in the stream, the extraordinary fireflies from the back mountain circled around like lanterns. After a while, he was the first to break the silence, saying:

“I too looked good like you when I was not this old.”

“I don’t believe that.” Responded a certain man with [Charisma 10], implying that he thinks you’re boasting.

“There may be some truth to it.” The Junior Priest dismissed the comment.

Lu Xun asked himself, if he were to age like this before even reaching his twenties, talking so much that it would leave him coughing half to death, he definitely wouldn’t be as cool about it.

Lu Xun looked at the Junior Priest and asked, “Can you tell me about your world?”

“Anything, as long as you’re willing to talk about it.” Lu Xun was not selective when it came to gathering information.

“Our world is governed by a deity,” The Junior Priest began, defining the nature of the foreign race’s world with his first statement.

“The deity grants us everything, gives us strength. And in return, we wage wars in their stead.” In just one sentence, the Junior Priest explained the reason behind the foreign invasion to Lu Xun.

——This is the intention of those three narrow eyes!

The three narrow eyes are the deity of the foreign race and the Blood Covenant probably originates from it.

“This kind of feels like [Main God Space].” Lu Xun thought to himself.

If he understood it this way, everything would seem much simpler.

The foreign race can be seen as invaders and destroyers dispatched by the deity.

Their mission is to destroy this world, not to occupy it.

Lu Xun wasn’t sure why, but he surmised the issue lay with those three narrow eyes.

To humans, invasion means conquest, but to a higher being like a deity, perhaps they receive more benefits by destroying the world?

“Like…the Power of Heavenly Path?” Lu Xun pondered in his heart.

Actually, he wasn’t entirely sure about this. If he equates the three narrow eyes with the Heavenly Path, why hasn’t the Heavenly Path itself shown any sign of action when the deity of the foreign race has?

“Wait!” Lu Xun suddenly came to a realization.

He recalled, during the player’s public beta, when the world experienced anomalies due to the massive influx of players, the old man called it —[Heavenly Dao Collapse]!

Realising this, he felt excitement, his heart started beating faster.

“Is it like this? Just as I thought?” Lu Xun’s expression was complicated.

In fact, his dilemma was largely because he had nearly come to believe that the Heavenly Dust Continent was the real world.

If he still considered this as a game, then the game’s big story is relatively simple.

Add to it an external invasion aiming to destroy the world, needs the help of players – brave young man, go and make miracles happen!

If it were a simple game, it probably would have started by telling you these game backgrounds.

After Lu Xun had absorbed and processed this information, he probably understood why the old man wanted him to take the Junior Priest for a walk, to see more.

It was to let him witness more of the beauty of the Heavenly Dust Continent.

Even though this could not shake his spirit, even a tiny piece of information leaked out would benefit Lu Xun or the entire Heavenly Dust.

Time passed moment by moment, and it was almost midnight.

At the moment, they had wandered to the jujube tree behind the mountain.

It wasn’t the season for jujubes to ripen, so there were no fruits on the tree.

Lots of jujubes were indeed stored in Lu Xun’s storage ring, which he got earlier, but he did not take them out for the Junior Priest to eat.

Given his condition, how could he chew on jujubes?

The Junior Priest sitting under the tree suddenly said, “Someone is looking for me.”

Seems to him, he had sensed something.

“Did the foreign race come to Demon Sect?” Lu Xun asked.

The Junior Priest shook his head, saying, “They’re hesitating at the border of the Eastern Region, contemplating whether to step inside.”

“Your Divine Sense is exceptionally wide reaching?” Lu Xun was awestruck. “Is this another benefit granted by the Power of Heavenly Path?”

“You could say that.” The Junior Priest nodded.

Lu Xun felt somewhat envious.

“Why bless me with Primordial Power? Wouldn’t it be better to have the Power of the Heavenly Path?” Lu Xun questioned the game.

He had once examined all the categories within the Special Attribute Points, yet there was no Power of the Heavenly Path.

As for the Foreign Race making their way to the Eastern Region, Lu Xun didn’t pay much attention.

With his masters and peers around, he felt secure.

Even if the Great Sacrificial Rite himself were to come, he would just be beat up by his master.

…

…

The Eastern Region, on the borders.

Present here were a Rank Eight Foreign Race, two Rank Seven Foreign Races, and five high-level Foreign Races.

The leading Foreign Race was a seductively beautiful woman. Those autumn-water-like eyes of hers appeared to be filled with affectionate emotions in every look.

She was dressed in a light yellow long dress, which extended down to her ankles. While this could have been an elegant and graceful dress, the slit on the side ran all the way up to near her buttocks.

This kind of slit was different from the cheongsam. The hemline of a cheongsam was tight with limited exposure, but this dress had a loose hemline that would completely blow open with a gust of wind.

The end point of the slit was right on her bottom line, adding endless allure to an otherwise prim and proper dress.

Her look was akin to the dress. When she had her eyes shut, she looked pure and saintly, yet the moment she opened those eyes, they immediately carried a demonically charming quality.

The lady from the Foreign Race took a deep breath, closed her eyes half-way, slightly raised her chin as if savoring a particular scent.

After a few seconds, she spoke in a confident tone: “The Junior Priest is in the Eastern Region.”

This conclusion made the Foreign Races hesitate.

— Should they enter?

Under normal circumstances, this was a place they shouldn’t enter!

Everyone who entered would perish without exception!

At the border, they didn’t even have the courage to enter casually.

After hesitating for a few seconds, the Foreign Race woman sighed: “Our Supreme Lord has commanded… to spare no expense.”

“Understood.” The rest sighed in unison, then followed her into the Eastern Region.

She tried to find a rough location based on the leftover scent from the Junior Priest.

However, just a moment after they had barely entered the Eastern Region, they stopped.

They had encountered someone blocking their path.

— A Taoist nun in a black Daoist robe, emanating an icy aura, was suspended in mid-air. Her dark hair spread over her shoulders, and in her hand, she held a wooden sword that was simplicity personified.

Her appearance made the heart of every male Foreign Race skip a beat.

In this ancient backdrop, wasn’t a Daoist robe also a kind of uniform? Furthermore, the essence of a nun added an element of taboo.

However, the aura emitting from this nun in the next moment changed the expressions of all the Foreign Races.

“Form a formation!” the leading Foreign Race woman commanded.

But she received no response.

With great difficulty, she turned her head. Her autumn-water-like eyes were filled with infinite shock, because every person behind her now had a thin red line on their necks!
