Chapter 1079: Chapter 581: Accusing the Mechanical Mother (Part 2)
"That is Wind Cloud Pride and Jiang Shu!"
"It’s said that several supreme geniuses from the War Alliance died at the Eye of the Void. Looking at Zhan Feng, he must be here for explanations from the Mechanical Clan!"
"The Mechanical Clan is in big trouble this time. Others fear the mother, and they rely on the Mechanical Mother’s cultivation at the Peak of the Tenth Realm to refuse confrontation with anyone. Now that Wind Cloud Pride has arrived, none of that matters!"
With that, several people flew to Zhan Feng and Jiang Shu, cupping their hands and saying, "The three geniuses, your fame precedes you."
Zhan Feng focused his gaze and lightly nodded, saying, "I remember you. You’re the ancient prodigy from the Divine Eagle Clan. What brings you here?"
To be remembered by Zhan Feng means they aren’t ordinary.
The genius from the Divine Eagle Clan took a deep breath before speaking, "I assume Brother Zhan is already aware of the Eye of the Void incident."
"At that time, I was in the Eye of the Void and could sense a heartbeat-like sound at the center, accompanied by a vast Dao Rhyme. But before we could approach, a Great Array erupted between heaven and earth, and countless light cannons appeared, bombarding fiercely."
This genius, being a renowned ancient prodigy, managed to survive with his rich experience and strong cultivation, but the strongest genius of this era in the Divine Eagle Clan wasn’t so lucky and perished on the spot.
Unable to swallow this injustice, he gathered a few friends to the Mechanical Clan’s station to demand answers, only to be driven away.
"They said it wasn’t their doing, claiming that their own geniuses died there as well."
"But aside from the Mechanical Clan, who else in the entire universe could deploy such a formidable Mechanical Array and trigger it without alerting anyone? Only the Mechanical Mother at the Peak of the Tenth Realm could achieve this!"
Who would believe such nonsense?
Yet the Mechanical Mother directly acted and suppressed and killed an ancient prodigy at the forefront, silencing everyone with iron-blooded means.
Throughout the universe, it seems only Wind Cloud Pride, Jiang Shu, and a few ancient prodigies can confront the Mechanical Mother directly.
Zhan Feng nodded solemnly and said, "Gather everyone here. I’m about to head to the Mechanical Clan’s station."
The genius from the Divine Eagle Clan was overjoyed.
They just needed someone to take the lead.
In no time at all, hundreds had gathered around Zhan Feng and Jiang Shu.
Among them were those who lost loved ones in the trap, opportunists hoping to gain in the chaos, and a few simply looking for excitement.
In short, these hundreds of majestic geniuses, led by Jiang Shu, Zhan Feng, and Zhan Yun, put tremendous pressure on the Mechanical Clan.
"Summon the Mother."
Jiang Shu said to the guard at the gate.
The guard, seeing it was Jiang Shu, knew he came with ill intentions and dared not delay, rushing into the station.
"Mother, after calculations, the probability that the trap was set by the Mechanical Clan is less than five percent..."
"Then who did it?"
Even in such a crisis, the Mechanical Mother remained extremely composed, gathering capable clan members to brainstorm and assess various possibilities.
The strong members of the Mechanical Clan had diverse appearances, some silent for a moment before saying, "Mother, it’s impossible to accurately calculate."
"That Mechanical Array is strong, but only for the Tenth Realm. It doesn’t rule out a Venerable level expert setting it up before the Deep Space Sea opened, making the possibilities endless."
The Mechanical Clan had long sold powerful formations externally, and the one used in the Eye of the Void was already rendered useless, making it impossible for them to extract any useful information from it.
Suddenly, the Mechanical Mother looked up and said plainly, "They’re here."
Just as she finished speaking, the guard entered and reported that Jiang Shu and the siblings Zhan Feng and Zhan Yun had brought people to cause a scene.
"Damn, they know full well our Mechanical Clan is innocent!"
"It’s precisely because they know how innocent we are that they’ve come."
"There’s no point discussing it now. It’s better to think about how to deal with them. These three aren’t like the others—they won’t be easily dismissed. Another fierce battle is unavoidable, and we may not be their match."
The combat prowess of Jiang Shu and the others was terrifying; even the Mechanical Mother could at most hold two of them in check. Adding in the hundreds of geniuses outside, how could they stand a chance?
Thus, they turned their gaze to the Mother for guidance.
"Jiang Shu must have obtained some fortuitous encounter, his realm advancing by leaps and bounds, now at the Peak of the Tenth Realm. His combat strength is absurdly strong, and even I have no absolute confidence to take him down."
What?!
At these words, the mechanical clan members showed strong reactions in their eyes.
After all, the Mother rapidly advanced to her current realm due to her immense potential, and even with such swift progress, she possessed combat strength said to be invincible at the same realm.
But with what does Jiang Shu compete?
He lacks the Mother’s innate potential, nor does he have Wind Cloud Pride’s foundation, even hailing from an insignificant planet with no background.
Yet now, the Mother herself says she might not be able to take Jiang Shu alone. It’s truly surprising to everyone.
"How long has it been since he achieved the Tenth Realm?"
"Doesn’t that mean he’s the number one below the Venerable Realm, even surpassing Zhan Feng?"
They marveled, watching the Mother stand and head outside.
As soon as the Mother appeared, Zhan Feng was already there in front of her, eyes blazing with fire:
"Mother, your actions in the Deep Space Sea have been fully exposed!"
"Are you planning to go against the entire cosmic realm?"
Zhan Feng’s anger was burning. Even though he now knew the Mechanical Clan might be wrongfully blamed, he couldn’t find the true culprit and had no energy to do so.
The best solution was to pressure the Mechanical Mother, forcing her to find the perpetrator.
To the Mechanical Mother, negative emotions like anger had long been purged. Upon hearing Zhan Feng’s words, she showed no emotional fluctuations, responding calmly.
"Whether I want to go against the entire cosmic realm, you know best."
Before the Mechanical Mother could finish, Zhan Feng continued:
"Mother, I don’t know if it was you, but can you explain why there was a Mechanical Clan array at the Eye of the Void and why the blood and flesh of the deceased bore your clan’s triangular mark?"
"Indeed, we ask the Mother for an explanation!"
"If you don’t give an explanation, don’t even think about leaving!"
At Zhan Feng’s words, the scene became chaotic. Many tried to incite trouble, using secret techniques to shout without a clear direction.
Jiang Shu raised an eyebrow and let out a light snort, unleashing an overwhelming pressure on a skinny figure in the crowd, pinning him to the ground, spitting blood.
The residences of these powerful clans were usually built atop space debris, simple structures, yet the Mechanical Clan’s station was luxurious but still trembled under Jiang Shu’s immense pressure.
"Brother Jiang has excellent Dao Practice!"
In terms of age, the genius of the Divine Eagle Clan had lived far longer than Jiang Shu, yet now he was calling him Brother Jiang, shouting earnestly.
The Mechanical Mother didn’t respond to Zhan Feng’s words but focused her gaze on Jiang Shu.
She knew Jiang Shu’s action was meant to give her a heads-up.
It seemed that without a satisfactory resolution today, this couldn’t end.
"The Formation could have been set by another Venerable in advance, and the mark could be imitated by the real mastermind. These aren’t sufficient to prove it was the Mechanical Clan’s doing."
"However, I can act to break open the Eye of the Void and let you obtain the fortuitous encounter."
