Chapter 469: Chapter 412: I’ve also failed countless times in the past! (Vote for monthly ticket!)
Indra was fully concentrated, as if he were a beating drum.
He waved the Vajra Pestle in his hand, the pestle wrapped in thunder and lightning, drawing a smooth curve through the air before instantly landing on Kashigyakya’s head.
Bang!
Kashigyakya screamed in pain.
Bang!
At that moment, Indra’s Vajra Pestle did not stop, and to ensure Kashigyakya was sufficiently awake, he had to be careful.
"Mother!"
"Save me!"
Kashigyakya let out a startled cry.
The sound was earth-shattering, echoing in all directions.
Indra’s grip on the Vajra Pestle tightened as he fell into thought, wondering if Kashigyakya would bring Parvati, the Lady Master, over.
But he immediately realized his error.
No!
Parvati was still in deep meditation, no matter how much he screamed she wouldn’t hear!
Thinking this, Indra’s gaze shifted and he saw Kashigyakya already soaring upwards, shooting towards the depths of the starry sky.
"Thinking of running?"
"Antaka, catch him!"
"We can’t let him go berserk!"
Indra commanded.
Upon hearing this, Antaka was slightly startled and subconsciously removed the blindfold.
A curtain of darkness descended in an instant.
Shh!
The devouring power surged forth, deeper than the abyss, darker than a black hole, instantly seizing Kashigyakya and dragging him back.
Antaka sensed every scene unfolding.
He felt the scene of Kashigyakya failing to escape and being captured once again.
A smile crept across his lips as he shook his head, pleasure rising inexplicably within him.
He was truly happy!
Antaka immediately stimulated the power of darkness again.
The vortex of darkness in his eyes exploded in growth!
Boom!
The darkness enveloped everything like a giant black hand, instantly pulling Kashigyakya back with a jerk.
Kashigyakya flailed forward, but could not struggle free from the grip of the dark force.
In the next moment, he turned his head abruptly.
Crack!
A Vajra Pestle intertwined with lightning thundered down upon him.
With a thud, Kashigyakya’s head rocked, instantly losing all strength to resist and crashing down into the void.
Antaka was contented.
He closed his eyes and the darkness dissipated abruptly.
Streaks of lightning descended, like a prison of electricity, enveloping Kashigyakya, and the Vajra Pestle struck down like a bolt from the blue.
"Ow!"
"Mother, save me!"
"Mother!"
Kashigyakya cradled his head, howling in pain.
Mother! Mother! Mother!
Kashigyakya’s voice spread in all directions, echoing in the starry space, rippling through the layers of planets.
At that time, in the distant starry sky.
A trail of lights suddenly flew in, falling instantly like shooting stars.
"Kashigyakya!"
"Kashigyakya!"
"Kashigyakya, what’s happened to you!"
Accompanied by the anxious calls, the Pleiades Goddesses all descended here.
"The Pleiades Goddesses?"
"It’s Kashigyakya’s mother!"
"The Goddesses have arrived!"
Witnessing this scene, the Devas murmured softly among themselves.
They couldn’t help but shift their gaze towards Kashigyakya’s direction.
Antaka also frowned slightly.
He suddenly felt the Pleiades Goddesses’ worry for Jiumolu.
Is this Jiumolu’s mother?
"That’s Kashigyakya, the son of Pleiades!"
"No mistake!"
"They really are Jiumolu’s mothers, and it seems quite normal!" Antaka silently observed, thinking to himself.
At that moment, the Pleiades Goddesses, blinking, all looked worriedly in Kashigyakya’s direction.
Under the watchful eyes of all.
Indra too noticed the newcomers, his face instantly turning solemn. Beating up someone’s son in front of their mother was indeed not the best of manners.
He rotated the Vajra Pestle in his hand, immediately retracting it, disappearing into his grasp.
Ah! Ah!
Indra coughed lightly twice, straightening his clothes.
He bowed his head, cast his eyes downward, and gazed at Kashigyakya, who was crouching with his head in his hands.
"Kashigyakya?"
Indra tentatively asked.
At this, Kashigyakya’s body trembled.
He lifted his head and looked towards the Pleiades Goddesses, tears sparkling in his eyes that stood out radiantly among the many stars.
"Kashigyakya!"
The Pleiades Goddesses shook their heads and reached out their hands, looking at Kashigyakya with pity.
"Mother!"
Kashigyakya’s voice turned sour as he murmured.
He couldn’t help but stand up and run to the Pleiades Goddesses, plunging into his mother’s arms.
"Child!"
"Child, it’s okay!"
"Yes, it’s okay!"
At that moment, the Pleiades Goddesses surrounded Kashigyakya, gazing at him with pity.
Kashigyakya finally broke down and cried.
"Wuu wuu wuu!"
"Mother!"
"I lost, I am a loser, a total failure!"
Kashigyakya wept incessantly.
The Pleiades Goddesses crowded around him, gently patting the back of the child.
Soon, Kashigyakya’s crying gradually ceased.
He finally calmed down.
"It’s okay, Kashigyakya, you can come to us!"
"Yes, we used to call you Jiumolu because we thought you had grown up, that you were a mature person, and that we should respect you more!"
"It’s our fault!"
The Pleiades Goddesses consoled Kashigyakya.
Kashigyakya’s mood finally calmed down as well.
He brought his palms together, looking blissfully and gratefully at his mothers.
"My mothers!"
"Praise to you!"
Kashigyakya smiled, looked at his mothers, and brought his palms together in reverence.
"By the way, Kashigyakya!" one of the Pleiades Goddesses suddenly spoke up, asking, "We just saw you fighting with your teacher, what was that all about?"
Kashigyakya’s pupils contracted, and he was momentarily stunned on the spot.
His neck stiffly turned.
Swish!
In an instant, Kashigyakya saw the figure of Indra, and his forehead started to throb with pain.
That Vajra Pestle on his head really hurt!
He felt somewhat guilty and somewhat afraid.
"Teacher!"
Kashigyakya whispered.
Indra looked serene, a faint smile on his face as he watched Kashigyakya.
"It’s good that your heart has calmed down!"
"Stay poised!"
Indra smiled as he said.
Upon hearing this, Kashigyakya finally began to speak.
He pursed his lips, looking down with difficulty accepting it, his fists clenched tightly, and said, "But I lost; I was defeated by Asura."
"I am not worthy to be the Heavenly Emperor!"
"Not at all!"
Kashigyakya said through clenched teeth.
He couldn’t accept his defeat!
Back when he was just born, he had defeated Tulaka Asura, saving the world from fire and water, astonishing the Three Realms, making all Asura tremble at the mention of his name.
But now, he had been vanquished by Asura.
And by two unknown Asura at that!
He could not accept it!
Upon hearing this, Indra shook his head slightly and spoke with a smile, "The power of the Asuras is not weak, on the contrary, it’s very strong."
"Kashigyakya, you recognized your own strength."
"But you have not recognized your own weakness!"
Indra said.
Kashigyakya looked puzzled.
"Weakness?"
"Teacher, do you also fail?"
Kashigyakya looked up and asked.
"Of course!"
Indra slightly tilted his head back, gazing deeply into the starry sky, then shook his head, saying, "Back then, I lost countless times too!"
"At that time, I was very young!"
