Chapter 110: Cold Moon Lone Disk
Chapter 110: Cold Moon Lone Disk
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The afternoon sun was shining gloriously when a bright moon suddenly appeared and lit up the entire sky with moonlight.
At that moment, several experts in the Royal Capital lifted their heads simultaneously to look at the cold moon in the sky that covered the sunlight.
Amongst the experts was a 30-year-old man whose eyes resembled a middle-aged man that had gone through countless experiences. He was holding a jade bamboo and frowning with an appalled expression. “It is the Moon Empress’ Cold Moon Lone Disk!”
One had to know that among the Moon Empress’ feys, the Cold Moon Lone Disk was mainly used for killing. What exactly happened for the Moon Empress to summon the Cold Moon Lone Disk?
Opposite the man with the jade bamboo was a middle-aged man in red armor, and he was holding a black stone1. When the cold moon appeared in the sky, the black stone dropped on the board and disrupted the black and white stones. It interrupted the game that was about to settle with a winner.
“Bamboo Monarch, has the Moon Empress’ Cold Moon Lone Disk reached the Myth Breed? I wonder how much stronger is the Cold Moon Lone Disk as compared to back then...”
The Bamboo Monarch held the jade bamboo and said with a grave expression, “You know of the Moon Empress’ temper too. Since her Cold Moon Lone Disk appeared, something major must have happened.”
The Bamboo Monarch turned into an afterimage after speaking and headed for the place where the cold moonlight was. The red-armored man also left afterimages as he followed the Bamboo Monarch.
The Spirit Guards HQ was considered the place with the strongest combat power within the Royal Capital. Multiple individuals wearing Spirit Guard crests were entering and exiting the headquarters.
In the Spirit Guards HQ’s Chief Hall was a rather skinny and masked woman. Her eyes flashed as she looked at the cold moon through the window and said, “A tall moon high up in the sky. A blade that has been withdrawn for ten years. Why are you making a move again? I hope that the situation isn’t like the previous time.”
After speaking, the black-clothed masked woman vanished from the Chief Hall. A few pieces of paper floated down from the table, making them look lonely.
In the imperial court of the Royal Capital’s Radiance Imperial Palace was an old man in the main seat. Two middle-aged men, who had similarly overwhelming prowess, were seated on his left and right.
The old man looked at the cold moon that had suddenly appeared and knocked on the table with his finger, while the other hand held his forehead. He turned to look at the two middle-aged men and muttered for a moment before he said to the man on the left with a cold face, “Iron Prison, go and find out what happened to make the Moon Empress so enraged. When a tree falls in a horizon of mountain trees, it is as clear as when the moon shines down on the river1. I hope that the Moon Empress’ radiant moon of wrath isn’t going to be scorching like the incident ten years ago.”
A man in golden armor stood up from the seat on the left with his blade in hand and acknowledged in a cold tone. “Yes.”
Subsequently, the golden-armored man vanished from the left seat.
The man on the right seat looked as though he had a smiling face. He involuntarily asked, “Your Excellency should know of Iron Prison’s temperament. Aren’t you afraid that Iron Prison will only further infuriate the Moon Empress?”
The old man looked at the smiling man on the right seat and said, “Cicada Song, if Iron Prison doesn’t go, the person that infuriated the Moon Empress will not have any chance of survival.”
The smiling man said without paying much mind, “The Moon Empress isn’t easily enraged. Since the Cold Moon Lone Disk appeared, it means she has the intention to kill. Those who infuriated the Moon Empress naturally have to pay the price, even Iron Prison. Therefore, I should go too.”
The old man stayed silent for a moment and nodded. The smiling man then vanished from his seat the instant that old man nodded.
...
After a loud “How dare you!?” echoed, the moonlight of the cold moon poured toward this place.
Lin Yuan felt as though the moonlight had a healing effect. In just a short moment, all the pain and the internal burning sensation of his body was slowly vanishing due to the moonlight’s nourishment.
However, Cheng Rui and Cheng Wu were feeling something that was entirely different.
The moonlight instantly disintegrated Cheng Rui and the Spine Gu on his body. Cheng Wu’s Diamond/Fantasy V, Gold Ring Spine Gu was also immobilized after getting fixated by the moonlight.
Even though the Gold Ring Spine Gu was a Diamond/Fantasy V source-type lifeform, when illuminated by the moonlight’s radiance, its feelers, legs, and armor were still slowly disintegrated.
Cheng Wu’s body was also feeling something strange as the moonlight’s radiance illuminated him. He felt that his body was burning up, but it was a burning sensation without pain. However, he could clearly feel that the cells within his body were constantly vanishing. In just a short period of time, three fingers from his left hand had already disintegrated.
Cheng Wu immediately yelled, “Will the Moon Empress, please be merciful! I don’t know what wrong I have committed for the Moon Empress to personally punish me!”
A woman wearing moon-colored robes descended along with the moonlight. In just a split second, she stood beside Lin Yuan. A small rabbit, which was eating a radish, was on the moon-robed woman’s shoulder.
The small rabbit looked at Lin Yuan and hopped off on him. It used its small claws to scratch on the radish for a long time before pulling off a small piece of radish skin. It looked at the radish skin with heartache while looking at Lin Yuan with dislike. The small rabbit lifted its head to see that the Moon Empress was looking at it, so it unwillingly placed the radish skin in Lin Yuan’s mouth.
Lin Yuan’s body was already recovering under the moonlight’s radiance when he suddenly fully recovered. He had a strong feeling that his body was quickly reverted to its prime condition when the radish skin entered his mouth. Even Red Thorn, Chimey, and Genius, which lay injured in his spiritual spatial zone, instantly recovered.
When the small rabbit saw that Lin had recovered, it quickly opened up Lin Yuan’s mouth and pulled out the radish skin. It then cleaned the radish skin on its fur before pasting it back onto the radish carefully.
Lin Yuan stood up and noticed that the Moon Empress was looking at him with concern. Before he could speak, the Moon Empress said with self-blame, “When you left, I should have asked either Cold Moon or Mystic Moon to follow you. It is my negligence. I didn’t think that someone would actually dare to make a move in the Royal Capital’s suburban area.”
As soon as the Moon Empress finished her statement, the domineering moonlight felt as though it was going to penetrate the sun.
Cheng Wu was currently circulating all his spiritual power to resist the moonlight that was penetrating through all pores. He wanted to recall the Fantasy V Gold Ring Spine Gu, but the moonlight didn’t allow it to move an inch.
Once the Moon Empress spoke to Lin Yuan, Cheng Wu’s entire body was drenched. The depths of his soul emitted a sensation of terror as he plopped and knelt on the ground. He couldn’t even say what he wanted to say.
Cheng Wu’s heart was shocked and sorrowful when the moonlight completely disintegrated Cheng Rui, but now, Cheng Wu was filled with hatred toward his own grandson.
My grandson sought revenge on the Moon Empress! This insect-like kid actually had an overwhelming backer like the Moon Empress!?
In normal times, Cheng Wu would wish for a chance to bootlick the Moon Empress. Unexpectedly, he had actually taken the initiative to touch the barrel of a gun that he should have never even gotten close to!
