Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family
Chapter 193 Praying for Rain (2)
Today, the entire City of Enlightenment was bustling again. All the orcs in the city hid in the shade listlessly, looking at the fierce cypress wearing sacrificial robes on the high platform in the center of the city.
Xiong Bo was seen leaning on a cane, chanting spells non-stop. Cheng Mo shielded the sun with her hands, looked up at Xiong Bo, and after he finished his blessing speech on the stage, he began to dance for rain.
"Lord City Lord, will this really work?" Duoduo approached Cheng Mo cautiously and asked in a low voice.
Cheng Mo smiled helplessly. He was actually not sure whether this rain-praying ritual would work, but he did not want to ruin everyone's expectations, so he could only vaguely answer, "Let's see first."
After Xiong Bai finished dancing a song, he sat down cross-legged, panting. Yan Hai also walked over tremblingly, walked around Xiong Bai who was sitting cross-legged and recited blessings.
At the same time, outside the world——
"What a trouble!" Banmu's face was extremely gloomy, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. He flashed and easily repelled the intruder. The intruder was no match for Banmu and could only glare at him fiercely before turning around and preparing to leave.
However, when the intruder tried to escape, Banmu blocked his way with amazing speed. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a cold smile, and then he raised his hand without hesitation and pierced the intruder's chest directly. The intruder opened his eyes wide and fell to the ground with resentment on his face. He could not understand why Banmu killed him until his death.
Banmu looked at the energy crystal in his hand indifferently and said softly, "The tenth one." He casually put the energy crystal into the pocket he had prepared.
However, at this moment, Banmu suddenly felt a strong sense of fatigue. His body, which had been holding on tightly, lost its strength in an instant and fell to the ground involuntarily. He spurted out a mouthful of blood, which dyed the ground red. Banmu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked up at the sky with displeasure and cursed: "Tsk, if you don't let me kill, I will kill anyway!"
Despite his poor physical condition, Banmu still stood up with difficulty and flashed back to the Beast Temple in Tianwai Tian.
At this moment, Banmu was sitting on the throne, concentrating on healing his injured body. Suddenly, he heard a prayer from the underworld: "Water..."
"Tsk!" Banmu frowned impatiently. He opened his eyes, his heart filled with annoyance.
Since the rain stopped in the lower world, he could hear the voices of the high priests in the lower world praying for rain from time to time. However, the world consciousness had clearly told him that he could not interfere with this matter. Therefore, he decisively blocked the passage between the outer world and the lower world to reduce the transmission of those rain-praying voices. He thought that this would give him a moment of peace, but he didn't expect that today there would be another voice coming over.
Ban Mu stood up with a pale face and paced in the hall: "Rain, rain, rain! If I could make it rain, it would have rained long ago! Can't you guys find a water source first?! It's so noisy down there!"
"Banmu!" Suddenly, the voice of world consciousness sounded, instantly interrupting Banmu's irritable muttering.
Banmu was startled, and quickly raised his hand to hide the bag on the throne behind him. Then he stared at the world consciousness that appeared in front of him with vigilance, and asked with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "What are you doing here? Why don't you go to guard the lower world and come here to cause trouble?!"
The world consciousness seemed to be a little afraid of Banmu, but when he thought of the reason for his visit, he plucked up his courage, flew to Banmu angrily and asked: "What have you been doing recently? Why did all those invaders die in Tianwai Tian? Did you kill them? Didn't you suffer any backlash? The world consciousnesses of other worlds have come to me one after another to ask for my people!"
"What am I doing? Humph!" Banmu was furious when he mentioned this. "I am doing my best to protect this world! If I wasn't the beast god of this world, I wouldn't bother to care about these things! And those ignorant invaders, what qualifications do they have to invade our world wantonly and then leave safely? Since you choose to invade other people's worlds, you must pay the price for it!"
"But doing this will do you no good!" The tone of the world consciousness softened, and its momentum was no longer strong.
"I don't need any benefits. I just want to make them understand that this world is not a place they can manipulate at will. If anyone dares to make plans against us, they must be prepared to pay the price with their lives!" Ban Mu snorted coldly, then sat back on his lofty throne.
"There is no need to kill them all. You can just expel them from the country! After they leave, just hand them over to Xingheng to deal with them. Xingheng will naturally imprison them in the star field. In this way, they will never be able to take a step forward again, let alone continue to invade our world." The world consciousness still tried to persuade Banmu to change his mind, but Banmu obviously did not buy it.
"I, won't!" Banmu shouted these three words stubbornly, then waved his arm vigorously, and the world consciousness instantly flew out like a kite with a broken string. Then, the palace door slammed shut with a crisp sound.
"Banmu!" The World Consciousness roared in frustration, "You can't keep doing this! If you do this, you will definitely suffer backlash! You will really lose your life!"
"You don't need to say too much!" A cold response came from the hall, revealing Banmu's firm and resolute attitude.
"You!" The World Consciousness was so anxious that it was like an ant on a hot pot, spinning around in circles: "Does he really not want to live? Want to commit suicide by backlash? Absolutely not! Oh, right! I have to go find Cheng Mo right away! Cheng Mo will definitely be able to persuade him to give up this idea!"
At the same time, in the City of Enlightenment in the netherworld, all the orcs were staring at the scorching sun above their heads like sculptures, longing deep in their hearts for a heavy rain to fall from the sky. However, no matter how much they wished, even though their necks became stiff and their eyes ached, they were unable to witness even a drop of rain.
"Did I fail?" Cheng Mo's heart was filled with endless helplessness and loss.
At this moment, a sudden cough broke the quiet atmosphere. The one who made the cough was Xiong Bai who was on the high platform. His body suddenly began to tremble violently.
"High Priest!" Upon seeing this, the people around rushed forward in panic and held tightly to the crumbling cypress tree.
"High Priest, what's wrong with you?" Cheng Mo looked at Xiong Bo's face, which was red from coughing, with a look of worry. Someone happened to hand him a glass of water. Cheng Mo hurriedly took the glass and carefully fed the water into Xiong Bo's mouth.
Xiong Bai finally stopped coughing, but his eyes revealed deep helplessness. He looked up at the sky, then shook his head in disappointment and said in a heavy tone: "Cheng Mo, this time, I did not receive the guidance given to us by the Beast God..."
