Chapter 912: Recruitment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Yunmu walked out of the tent when Xiao Nan just happened to bring over the laborers covered in dust in front of him. He saw that the majority of the laborers were sage flux experts. Only the elder who had previously gone to call Yan Xiu was a half god expert.

But having a cultivation base couldn’t change anything in ore mountain. Each and every day, they would keep collecting resources from the caves, so they were no different from ordinary people.

The majority of the laborers were branch family descendants of Morrow Clan who had offended the direct descendants and had been sent to the ore mountain to work. Only a small minority belonged to the lower city, but despite originally belonging to different classes in Asura City, they were all doing the same thing.

The leader half god remained overcautious and respectfully said, “Lord, you asked Xiao Nan to bring us over. Do you need something from us?”

“Today I called you over to ask you something, is there anyone among you who wants to leave the ore mountain? Don’t worry, I am not joking with you. You all also don’t need to be anxious, just reply to me sincerely!” Li Yunmu slowly said.

The moment he finished, the laborers looked at the people next to them suspiciously. When the half god elder first heard the words, a dazzling light blossomed in his eyes. The next instant though, they dimmed again.

Although the other party had said that he wasn’t joking, saying stuff like that they could leave was something that they didn’t dare to believe in.

He looked at Li Yunmu and cautiously said, “Is lord making fun of us?! From the time we left Asura City, we became unable to return and were turned into abandoned people.”

When Li Yunmu heard the half god elder’s words, he said with a faint smile on his face, “I will naturally help you lose the identity of abandoned people. That is, if you follow me to Asura City and are willing to break away from your original clan to become members of Ground Clan.

“Ground Clan??”

“When did a Ground Clan appear in Asura City?”

“I remember when this lord came, lord supervisor called him lord ancestor. Could this lord be a lord ancestor of Asura City?”

The half god elder standing in the front listened to the discussion of laborers behind him. He had been in the ore mountain for a very long time, so long that he no longer knew how many years had passed. However, he still remembered the appearance of the ancestor of Morrow Clan he had seen before, and it didn’t match that of Li Yunmu.

It could be judged that Li Yunmu wasn’t an ancestor of Morrow Clan, but his appearance matches that of branch family descendant of Morrow Clan, since he had a face at the front and back of his head, just like the elded. Yet the lord was able to become an ancestor after being born as a branch family descendant of Morrow Clan?

The half god elder bowed slightly and suspiciously said, “I would like to ask lord, when did Asura City have a Ground Clan?”

Before Li Yunmu could say anything, Yan Xiu walked out from the tent behind him and looked at the group of laborers.

“You all were found guilty and sent to ore mountain many years ago, so you naturally don’t know anything about Asura City,” he said with disdain in his voice. “Although Lord Chen Xiu was born as a branch family descendant of Morrow Clan, he was adopted as the sixth son by god father, which made him into the sixth ancestor of Asura City.

“Lord ancestor then created the fifth clan in Asura City and called it the Ground Clan. The descendants of Ground Clan are the former slum dwellers of lower city.”

While he spoke, there seemed to be a large wave rising among the laborers. The eyes of the half god elder who was acting as the leader went wide while looking at Li Yunmu, and he remained speechless for a long time. When did the branch family descendants become so successful? Also, it was no wonder then that he possessed the cultivation of the god realm despite being a descendant of Morrow Clan.

The other labourers were also excited. They clearly remembered Li Yunmu’s words from a minute ago. He was the sixth ancestor of Asura City and possessed a revered position, so the words out of his mouth were very precious and could hold not lies.

“Lord, what you said just now, was it true? Can you really take us out of ore mountain? Can you really remove our status of abandoned people?”

“If you can, then lord I am willing to be a descendant of Ground Clan.”

One after another, the originally full-of-despair eyes of the labourers filled with energy, and they spoke over one another. Even the half god elder standing at the front nervously looked at Li Yunmu.

“Everything is real, None of those who want to return will be left behind.”

Li Yunmu looked at the group of the excited laborers and nodded.

After he spoke, a divine presence erupted from his body. He extended his palm, and it enlarged countless times in front of the labourers. A crack was in the hollow of palm, and it quickly expanded to reveal a world inside.

“Anyone who wants to leave can enter the world in my palm.”

When Li Yunmu said that, the half god elder standing at the front looked inside. Without hesitating, he then entered, and the other laborers looked at each other before going into the crack one after another. Before long, all the laborers were within the heavenly world.

Yan Xiu standing by the side saw the crack in Li Yunmu’s palm, and a glimmer of greed appeared in his eyes. A space which could store living people was naturally a treasure. He had been a god for many years, but he had never obtained such a divine treasure, so when he saw it, sinister thoughts took root in his heart. He thought once more if he should make his move on Li Yunmu or not.

He had been a god for several years while Li Yunmu had been raised in a few days by god father who had used power of belief on him. With this kind of method, he would at most be a false god. Unlike him, Yan Xiu had only used power of belief after rising to half god realm step by step.

Many years had passed since then, and he had become a mid stage god, so he should possess more than enough strength to deal with Li Yunmu.

However, Asura was backing Li Yunmu. If Asura had given any trump cards or if Asura one day learned that he had killed Li Yunmu, then the world in the palm wouldn’t make up for the losses. Although treasures were important, his life was even more valuable.

Li Yunmu pulled back his palm, then turned to look Yan Xiu, who was fighting a war in his heart, and said with a mysterious smile.

“Are you interested in this world in my palm?”

After saying that, Li Yunmu extended his palm toward Yan Xiu with the crack slowly fusing in it. Yan Xiu snapped to attention to look at the crack, but divine presence erupted from Li Yunmu body, and the man retreated a few steps.

“Remember, tell the clan patriarchs that I will collect this gift, so they should wait for my return gift.”

After those words, his figure fluctuated, and he turned into a blur that flew toward Asura City.

Yan Xiu looked at Li Yunmu’s figure which turned into a black dot in the sky and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. When he shot a glance into the world in the palm, he sensed the presence of fifteen gods. When he associated it with the missing gods of the four clans, Yan Xiu’s heart filled with dread.

There were even late stage gods among the fifteen gods, but they were all defeated by Li Yunmu. When Yan Xiu looked at the world in the palm, he had the thought of stealing it, but if he had attempted anything, he probably would have also fallen into the world in the palm.
