YM778.TV Chapter 462 I am Being Framed!
Today, no one could save him.
"Law Inheritance Grounds truly are good things. Perhaps we should endeavor to find a few for our less gifted members."
Konrad wondered from within his chambers. Following his abduction of Tara, he used the Devil Body leading Chandra by the nose to return him to his Moon Refining Palace with his haul. A haul that would undoubtedly bring him many calamities. Better, with another Devil Body, Konrad’s used the Radiant Light Mountain’s deserted state to bypass their defensive formations and empty their treasury.
Now, as Brihaspati summoned his holy judgment on the Moon Refining Palace, little did he know that he’d already gone bankrupt. So much for the Cardinal Light Lord.
Although Konrad didn’t care for the usual pills and elixirs, one problem he now faced was poverty. Indeed, within the Higher Realms, there were only two valid currencies:
Divine Stones and God-Jade. In a world were Saints stood in the billions and Sages in the millions, Holy Rank currencies simply didn’t have a foothold. Only in the Lower and Middle Heaven did they find a use. 1 God-Jade was worth 1000,000 Divine Stones, and there were only two ways to obtain those currencies. Either you found/excavated them, or you refined them.
Konrad could undoubtedly refine God-Jades. However, it was a time consuming and harrowing process for little gains and substances. The correct path was to snatch them. Now, thanks to Brihaspati’s generosity, Konrad’s coffers contained 190 billion God-Jades. Thereby making him one of the wealthiest individuals of Heaven. Of course, that was the Radiant Light Mountain’s reserves. On their bodies, Brihaspati and his disciples undoubtedly had more.
Not that it mattered. Right now, after laying down incriminating evidence in Chandra’s chambers, Konrad’s Truth Devil wrought the same fate of larceny onto the Moon Refining Palace treasury. As a notorious despot, Chandra imposed harsh taxes on the sects within his Domain. Therefore, his coffers overflowed with much more God-Jade than any of the other Primogens.
A whopping 260 billion. When Brihaspati sold the Nagas into slavery, the only result he could obtain, Konrad would use that money to buy both males and females. The males could become food and puppets for his legions while the females would serve as dual cauldrons and worship his rod.
Thus, Chandra and his Moon Refining Palace would become some of the greatest contributors to the Jade Dynasty’s hegemony. An acceptable result. But another "innocent" expert was doomed to find himself embroiled in this clusterfuck.
.....
Before the dreadful mixture of Fate Wielding and Light Embodiment within Brihaspati’s Towers of Retribution, the entirety of the Moon Refining Palace convulsed in fright. Loyalty was never a strong trait of the Nagas. And faced with their own, imminent destruction, they didn’t dare gamble on their calamitous patriarch’s skills. Instantly, all sought an escape!
The majority of Chandra’s consorts were no exception!
Alas, Brihaspati’s Towers of Reckoning suppressed all across tens of thousands of kilometers, standing as the sole judges of their fates!
"Brihaspati, stop this nonsense at once! Even in the most frenzied of state, there is no way I would have assaulted your wife! And even if I did, how could I sneak into the Radiant Light Mountain without alerting you? The only devas able to achieve that feat are Surya and the Warden!"
Chandra snapped, and as if to back his words, ten light beams rippling with Legendary God cultivation bases came from afar to land before them all. Naturally, those ten were the remaining Primogens. And believing that they came to back him up, Chandra surged with joy!
"Brothers and sisters, please ex-"
Chandra began, but when the rays dispersed to reveal the Deva Primogens, a simple glance at their faces allowed Chandra to see that their visit heralded nothing good for him!
This time, even Surya daggered him with soaring fury!
"CHANDRA! HOW DARE YOU ABDUCT THE ETERNAL VOID DOMAIN’S RAKSHASIS?! THIS EMINENCE WILL BUTCHER YOU!"
Durga, the Cardinal Void Lady howled with her wild, yet enrapturing face twisted by savage fury!
Of the thirteen primary Deva Races, in terms of bloodline strength, rakshasas and rakshasis were undoubtedly the most powerful, ranking even above the Warden’s Brahmas. The reason? They were all born with two bodies, thereby allowing them to pursue two cultivation paths to the extreme. Thanks to that, Durga was not only a Space Embodiment but also a Darkness Embodiment.
However, there were two fatal flaws. First, they didn’t have Ancestral Glories. Second, though the two bodies could unite in one, they didn’t share one consciousness. Both would always possess dramatically opposed personalities that made cooperation challenging.
For that reason, Durga’s Eternal Void Sect was divided into two palaces:
The Dark Void Palace, and the Shifting Void Palace.
Only harrowing moments would force them to unite to display their blood’s strongest strength.
This was one such moment! Never in her wildest dreams did Durga expect that Chandra would be so bold as to abduct and defile her proud Rakshasis! Rakshasis were amazons born with the strongest willpower among the Three Realms’ races. For them, such humiliation was 100,000 times worse than death!
If she didn’t skin the pig alive, Durga could not vent the hatred in her heart!
And she wasn’t the only one!
"Chandra! Do you think that just because our cultivation is inferior to yours, you can humiliate us Divine Lords in such a wanton manner? Today, you must surrender your life!"
Agni, the Divine Flame Lord snarled, speaking for all seven Divine Lords! For indeed, in his Konrad-guided lust-frenzy, Chandra assailed their domains with great fanfare and abducted half-a-dozen devi from each sect!
How was this a deva? Clearly, he was a wanton demon! Heaven could no longer tolerate this stain!
"The Nagas cannot be blamed for having such an ancestor. We should give them a way out. However, Chandra, you’ve gone too far. Today, you must perish. But considering our years of friendship, I can promise you to shelter your descendants."
Surya declared, causing Chandra’s eyes to widen in disbelief while all strength left his body.
"Impossible...that’s not...possible. Completely...impossible! Framed! I am being framed!"
Chandra wailed! Alas, none could buy those words. Brihaspati, however, couldn’t help but frown. All other cases could be attributed to Chandra alone, but his wife’s abduction? No. Someone else was involved! Someone used Chandra’s lust-frenzy to lure him into this situation, frame him, and harvest benefits on the sides!
From the corner of his right eye, Brihaspati glanced at Surya who appeared filled with righteous indignation!
The hypocrisy! At that time, Bhumi, the Divine Earth Lady, stepped forward!
"Chandra, enough rubbish! Where is my daughter?!"
Bhumi snarled, and by "daughter," she naturally meant her Tara.
Again, Chandra floundered, and subconsciously shifted his gaze toward his chambers. Was Tara really there? If she truly stood in that pile of women, regardless of right or wrong, there was no way out!
Little did he expect that the deviously cunning Surya would wave his hand, using his Truth Wielding to shift all the ladies within Chandra’s chambers and make them appear to all!
Now, both Chandra and Brihaspati firmly believed that Surya was the mastermind behind everything! And seeing this, Konrad burst into laughter.
