Chapter 926: Surrounded
The words of their parents had left them dumbfounded, even so the two moon princes aren’t ready yet to accept the Immortal Sun Emperor once again as someone that would stand by the side of their younger sister. In their eyes, he is still that bastard who had exploited their sibling’s love and used that as a form of alliance with their empire when in reality even though this man had never harmed their younger sister directly, she is the loner of the Immortal Sun Empire. The man who had given up her all for love yet at the same time a foolish woman who was never loved back by the man she had given her heart for. Moreover, the reason she had died is for this man’s sake which the two of them cannot accept.
On the other hand, the Everlasting Moon Emperor and Everlasting Moon Empress looked at their two sons with ugly faces, just based on this reaction, it would take a long time before these two can move on from the past they are used to. Of course, the two of them had no intention of forcing them to accept the Immortal Sun Emperor.
"Alright. We will not force you like the man. Just don’t get involved with the matter of your sister for now. She will go home once she feels like it. No need to force her home," Yue Yuya said as he stared at his son with a warning gaze.
In the end, the Twin Moon Princes promise that they will not force their sister to go home to ask her to throw that bastard by her side away from her.

At the Regal Lei Clan’s Palace...
The two ancestors and their direct descendants had gathered for a family meeting. The news about the Pill Tower and its origins had reached their ears as well. Since it has something to do with the Divine Doctor, their family is also interested in this Pill Tower and the Sentient Tree of Knowledge it possessed.
Lei Yuhuang asked, "What do you guys think? Do we need to get involved with the happenings at the Inner Haven?"
"Brother, that’s the legacy of the Divine Doctor! It’s an extremely rare treasure!" Lei Yuwang said.
Lei Yuhuang frowned and said, "Unfortunately, we do not excel in medicine so what’s the use of this legacy even if we got it?"
"It was actually no use at all~. Whatever that legacy left behind by the late Divine Doctor it would fall in her hand no matter what. There is no need to get involved with the pill tower. We should focus on holding back the Alchemy Association from getting involved though," said the Immortal Thunder Emperor, Lei Yuye.
Aside from Lei Yuye, the others inside the room were confused by his words. They actually didn’t understand the meaning of what he had said just now. With all eyes falling on him, Lei Yuye was playing with the little lizard he had signed a contract with. It seems there is something he had forgotten to inform the family about his eldest niece.
Lei Yuhuang asked, "Brat, what are you talking about? Explain it to this old man!"
"Hah? I said that the legacy of the late divine doctor, forget about it. We should focus on holding back the Alchemy Association and maybe the Yun Clan. As long as they don’t get too involved my niece can handle the rest," Lei Yuye recalling about the little bastard staying by his niece’s side suddenly said, "Maybe they actually don’t need help? If that little bastard turned serious, forget about the Yun clan, maybe the Alchemy Association would be burned down."
In the end, the Immortal Thunder Emperor got smacked on the back of his head by his own old man who was angry that this stupid son of his is not properly explaining things to him.
"Speak human, brat!" Lei Yuhuang said.
OW~
"Old man, that hurts! Why did you hit me!?" Lei Yuye complained. But he stopped it instantly seeing that his old man was about to seriously hit him for a second time. This time his head might explode like a rotten watermelon.
"Ah? Did I forget to tell you that Xue’er is the current Divine Doctor?" The Immortal Thunder Emperor said while rubbing his swollen head. "We have the current Divine Doctor in the family. Why do we need to fight for the legacy of the late Divine Doctor? Just ask Xue’er for help if you are feeling ill. Hiss~ Old man! Why did you hit so hard!?"
There was a short silence for a while before everyone except Lei Yuye exclaimed the same thing.
"Xue’er is the Divine Doctor!!"
"Yes. Did I not tell you before?" Lei Yuye asked.
Lei Yuhuang looked at his second son like he wanted to beat him up more and he truly did so in the end.

Inner Haven. Divine Beast’s Sanctuary.
The Divine Beast Tribe learned about the appearance of the legacy of the late Divine Doctor and then finally the existence of the sentient Tree of Knowledge. But unexpectedly, the Phoenix, the Dragon, the Whale and Tiger clans didn’t seem to be that interested in such things. Even though the reputation of the Divine Doctor is considered legendary, these races don’t trust humans that much and didn’t think well of the so-called divine doctors born from the human race. They were more inclined to believe the shaman in their tribes instead. As for the sentient Tree of Knowledge, they are even more uninterested. It would have been a different story if it was a world tree instead. This one is considered extinct and is considered a divine tribe by the Divine Beast Tribe. Unfortunately, all of the world tree within the Immortal World had been burned down and destroyed by the Fairy race and the Immortal Start Empire.
The Golden Dragon Emperor who was napping within the cluster of clouds was suddenly visited by the Nether Ice Phoenix Emperor and told him the news about the Divine Doctor’s Legacy.
"Old Snake, wake up for a moment. I have news to share with you. Caws~" said the Nether Ice Phoenix. "This is something about the Divine Doctor!"
The sleeping golden dragon slightly opened his eyes and snorted, "Stupid Bird, you are not even sick why find a divine doctor. There is no need to find one just grab a shaman in the clan, it’s just the same. Yawn~"
"It is not the same. This box seems to be intentionally attacking you, Old Snake~" the Nether Ice Phoenix said.
The Golden Dragon was annoyed by the squawking Ice Phoenix and almost used its tail to hit it. The Nether Ice Phoenix dodged it and flew away. The other divine beast tribe watching and listening to the conversation between the dragon and the phoenix understood the content of their conversation. This includes the other two main divine beast tribes, the Floating Island Whale Tribe and the White Tiger Tribe.
The Floating Island Whale leader speaks up, "Forget about the divine doctor. The two of you should be focusing on the incoming arrival of your tribe’s Ancient Nest!"
"The Phoenix-Dragon Ancient Nest. That’s quite an old place for your tribe. Do you still use that place for your descendants’ trial ground?" The White Tiger Emperor asked.
The Golden Dragon responded, "It seems that this time trial for the Nether Ice Phoenix and the Golden Dragon Tribe would be more noisier than the one they would be expecting. This should be interesting~."

Inner Haven. Pill Tower.
Surrounding the Pill Tower which is now the Sentient Tree of Knowledge, Yue Guishu, are countless cultivators. They had encircled the place from both the ground and the sky. The only reason they aren’t directly attacking the sentient being was only because they all wanted the Tree of Knowledge and if the tree spirit is willing to leave with one of them, then that is better. However, each one of these people looked like they were proud of their own. Would they even be able to accept if the treasure they desire would fall into another person’s hand. Clearly, that will be something completely out of the question.
Moreover, in the eyes of the Golden Dragon Tribe and the Nether Ice Phoenix Tribe, the human race is the weakest and the race they hated the most. After all, there are human stories stating that they had caught a dragon or a phoenix as a pet before. For the proud and arrogant main Divine Beast Tribe’s leaders, letting a human go over their heads was something they can accept.
The cultivation realms of these people were varying from Early God King realm to False Emperor realm. That’s how much the existence of the Sentient Tree of Knowledge had attracted the attention of all of these cultivators.
A False Emperor cultivator had spoken, "Pill Tower Master, Han Siyu! It’s time for you to give up the ownership of the Pill Tower!"
An old man’s confident and even sarcastic voice echoed in the whole area. Now everyone is waiting for the people inside the Sentient Tree to come out. They were all forcing the pill tower to come out and confront them for the sake of the owners of the Pill Tower. Everyone in the area waited for the reaction of the Pill Tower people. Just as everyone thought that the old man leader from the Pill Tower, Han Siyu would come out, someone else had come out instead.
Yue Xuexia said, "No use asking Han Siyu to come out. The real owner of the Pill Tower is none other than this empress!"
It was the Goddess of the Moon who is now using the bloodline awakening form of an Ancient Elf. Her arrival had stunned everyone leaving them all dumbfounded. Her current appearance is simple to beautiful and astounding that no one else can move their gaze from himself.
