1677 The Moon Empress and Goddess of Mercy’s Confrontation!
This high-class dimensional lifeform could have accidentally entered the main world through a pinnacle Class 5 dimensional rift before leaving descendants with their rare bloodline in the depths of the sea.
At first, the Goddess of Mercy did not agree with this theory.
But when an expert from the Freedom Federation contracted the sacred source lifeform called the Moving Source Water, the Goddess of Mercy sensed an affiliation with the bloodline’s roots.
This was what eventually led her to believe Tower Canon.
The Goddess of Mercy had used resources to nurture this expert and even enabled him to become one of the Freedom Federation’s royalty.
Yet, the expert eventually died at the hands of the Moon Empress.
This was the reason the Moon Empress had overtaken Second Page Revival’s place as the Goddess of Mercy’s most hated person.
But this still meant that the Goddess of Mercy hated Second Page Revival.
Second Page Revival decided that she would only protect herself during the fight.
Even if all the young experts from the Freedom Federation envoy group died, she would not step in.
Second Page Revival did an estimation of time and realized that First Page Crimson’s four horsemen would be arriving soon.
As a result, she calmed down significantly.
The Bamboo Monarch replied coldly to the Goddess of Mercy, “It’s not a good habit to make oneself an uninvited guest. You also don’t have to worry about how capable we are.”
The Goddess of Mercy was unbothered by what the Bamboo Monarch said.
But when her gaze fell on the Moon Empress, her aura sharpened into ferocity, and malevolence filled her eyes.
“It’s been a long time, Moon Empress.”
The Moon Empress looked at the Goddess of Mercy and said, “Ten years indeed is long. Our power will probably increase even if we don’t do anything. But my guess is that you’re not having a great time being constantly stuck there.”
The Goddess of Mercy smiled bitterly. As long as the mermaid bloodline could not be evolved, her power would be stuck at its current level.
Thus, no matter how hard the Goddess of Mercy had worked over the last ten years, her power had not grown in the slightest.
The Moon Empress’ words were like salt that rubbed into the Goddess of Mercy’s open wound.
The Goddess of Mercy had only come to the Radiance Federation to take Qian Yu safely back. This was only because Qian Yu’s sacred source lifeform allowed the Goddess of Mercy to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Otherwise, she would not have bothered with choosing an expert and nurturing him.
But when she heard what the Moon Empress said, the Goddess of Mercy exploded.
“Moon Empress, it’s true that my power hasn’t increased in the past ten years. But so what? You are only left with a few years in your lifespan. You’re either struggling fruitlessly or already on your last legs!
“If your power hasn’t improved since a decade ago, the Radiance Federation will probably lose a member of royalty and a Class 5 Creation Master in three or four years’ time. The Radiance Federation will be in the same situation it was in a few decades ago, having one fewer Class 5 Creation Masters than the Azure Federation.
“At that time, the membership of the three great federations will be reshuffled. I heard that the Sand Island Continent just obtained its second Class 5 Creation Master. I wonder if the Radiance Federation will be able to remain a part of the three great federations in that not-so-distant future?”
The members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence were seated atop the silver pillars, and contestants who had already been eliminated were watching this confrontation unfold.
The Moon Empress knew that the Goddess of Mercy wanted to use her to belittle the Radiance Federation and deliver a blow to the Radiance Federation’s spirits.
Hence, the Moon Empress did not waste time speaking.
She pointed at the Goddess of Mercy, and a moonbeam chain shot out toward the Goddess of Mercy.
At first, the Goddess of Mercy seemed unbothered. But when she saw the faint light covering the moonbeam chain, her expression turned solemn.
The dark red spots on the fishtail started to grow larger until the gold and red fishtail turned fully red.
The Goddess of Mercy flew in a circle in the air, and the fishtail slammed against the moonbeam chain.
At that moment, there was also faint light on the Goddess of Mercy’s tail.
When the two entities crashed against each other, the Goddess of Mercy looked at the Moon Empress in shock and said, “Interesting! You managed to resolve your lifespan peril! There isn’t any treasure on earth that can significantly increase lifespans. Your power must have reached another level. But even if you trigger your birth horoscope, you’ll only be able to reach that level.”
The Goddess of Mercy’s expression was no longer as haughty as it had been.
Besides that elderly man, the Radiance Federation now had another genuine top expert.
The Goddess of Mercy was confident that she would be able to retreat safely if only the elderly man was present. But now, the Moon Empress had joined the party.
Even if the Goddess of Mercy managed to escape, she would be able to take Qian Yu with her.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Qian Yu was the Goddess of Mercy’s heart. If he died, she would lose all hope. Thus, the Goddess of Mercy did not say anything else.
With a flash, she reappeared next to Li Yang.
The Moon Empress shared a look with Night Leaning Moon.
The two of them initially intended to do all they could to keep the people from Tower Canon in the Radiance Federation.
The Moon Empress made this decision because she had increased her power.
But now that the Goddess of Mercy had arrived, the Moon Empress had no choice but to reassess her plan.
She was not afraid of the Goddess of Mercy because Lin Yuan had helped her to take a step further after awakening her birth horoscope.
The Moon Empress was confident that she would be able to perfectly protect the Radiance Federation even if an expert with Eternal power arrived on Radiance Federation soil.
However, if the Goddess of Mercy attacked with her full power, the Radiance Federation would be utterly ravaged, and many regular people would be dragged in.
The responsibility of a member of royalty was to safeguard the Radiance Federation.
Technically, every federation in the world should be of equal standing.
However, there were always top experts within federations, and these top experts acted as the best deterrents and means of protection for the federations.
For example, because of the Startling Lines Continent’s lack of such top experts and Class 5 Creation Masters, they existed in constant turmoil despite being rich in resources.
The Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation had never gotten along, but neither of them had attacked the other.
This was the reason why.
No matter which side attacked first, they could not be certain of their victory.
The Goddess of Mercy’s arrival forced the Moon Empress to reconfigure her original plan.
However, she did not know which two pages of Tower Canon had come.
The Goddess of Mercy was the main reason the Freedom Federation and Tower Canon had never managed to become truly close.
At least four of Tower Canon’s current Eight Pages detested her and had fought against her.
Initially, the Moon Empress had not planned on touching the Freedom Federation envoy group.
As such, the Goddess of Mercy’s arrival might not be a bad development.
