Chapter 268: Please Consider Your Words

“Bullying an old man takes no real skill!” You You stepped forward, shielding Old Divine Thought. “Stop calling them traitors! Explain how the Phoenix Clan became the Sin Clan when they’re clearly Divine Clan!”

“Traitors of heaven dare claim divinity?!” Yu Hao glared at Feng Rong. “Why not ask him what the Divine Clan did?”

Betraying heaven? You You recalled Nie Zheng’s texts mentioning this vaguely. She glanced at Feng Rong, who shook his head. “My legacy memories show nothing.”

“Cut the nonsense!” You You tapped her drawn sword against Yu Hao. “What did the Phoenix Clan do?”

Yu Hao sneered. “Before Ancient Times, Divine Realm clans invaded the lower realms, slaughtering Living Beings and triggering the World-destroying Calamity. Only the Heavenly Dao’s Saint saved the Three Realms by reshaping existence. Thus, heaven punished the Divine Clan – stripping their powers and exiling them as the Sin Clan.”

“Why invade?” You You pressed.

Yu Hao scoffed. “To rule the Three Realms.”

“You mean Human, Immortal, and Divine Realms?”

“Obviously!” Yu Hao snapped. “Other realms hardly matter – the dead inhabit the Nether Realm, and demons are extinct.”

“That’s illogical!” You You countered. “Divine Clan already ruled over lower realms. Mortals cultivate to become Immortals, who then ascend to divinity. The Three Realms naturally belong to Divine Realm’s hierarchy. Why destroy what you already control?”

It made as much sense as a CEO sabotaging their own company.

Yu Hao faltered before insisting, “The Divine Clan’s betrayal caused Ancient suffering. The Divine Realm’s silent alarm bell now rings with Demonic Energy surges – proof the Sin Clan’s return threatens order!”

“Your ‘Demonic Energy’?” You You smirked. “We’ve met demons.”

“Where?!”

“Dead. I killed them.”

Yu Hao gaped. Demons required godly strength to defeat.

“One demon claimed to be a True God from the Divine Realm,” You You added. “He murdered female Immortals like Qiu Yao did.”

“Lies!” Yu Hao spat. “The Gate of the Divine Realm stays shut. I barely sent a wisp of original spirit here. Only Sin Clan could—”

“Then how did Qiu Yao descend?”

“Divine Master Qiu Yao?!”

“Dead. I killed him too.”

Yu Hao paled. “So his extinguished divine energy meant…”

You You detailed Qiu Yao’s three Reincarnation schemes before concluding, “Our lower realm crises all originate from your Divine Realm. Feng Rong cleans up your messes, yet you attack him? If your alarm bell rings, maybe your realm should reflect on its own sins!”

Yu Hao’s numb knees throbbed painfully.

————————

You You suspected Yu Hao’s story hid gaps. Ancient Truths might awaken the Feng Clan, but current Divine Realm gods ascended post-exile and knew little. Even Feng Rong’s memories lacked answers.

She decided to consult Rong Fu and Rong Mu – Ancient war survivors. Leaving the Immortal Realm, she hauled the immobilized Yu Hao back to Zhen Yan Sect. Though merely an original spirit fragment, his divine power could wreak havoc once her binding skills faded. With Feng Rong, Yuan Qi, and her parents present, any troublemaking would be suicide.
