His answer was loud, clear and left no opportunity to turn back.

"So you admit it. Good" Qianqui said.

As it was said earlier. There was severel heavenly officials who has blood of mortal on their hand. But their old blood debts didn't escalate to this point. Pei su has General Pei behind him but he was still exiled. And Xie lian? He had no one.

This would depend weather Jun wu still cared about his past affection towards Xie lian. When Xie lian first ascended he was treated with utmost favor. In his second ascension they had huge fight before he was defeated and sent back down.

And this time they both maintained calm and composed relationship as if they forgot past matters, Jun wu even built a brand-new palace for Xie lian that is located in the best part of heaven. It was difficult to decide what would happened. Thus countless pair of ears perked up, wanting to hear how Jun wu would sentence Xie lian.

"Aren't they little too excited?" Banyue grumbled.

"I don't think he could do something like that" Qingxuan said to He xuan who just nodded saying nothing.

Before Jun wu could say anything Xie lian spoke up "My lord, Xianle has presumptuous request"

"Speak" Jun wu responded.

"I have a bad feeling about this request" 

"Me too"

"Mn"

"I humbly ask my lord to remove my godhood and banish me to mortal realm" Xie lian said.

"Whatt??"

"Your highness why would you ask that" Qingxuan said

Xie lian just kept his head low not saying anything to anyone.

Some of heavenly officials were shocked, some were amazed. No one wanted to be banished afterall. So much hardwork that one put to ascend only to plummet down. Xie lian had been banished twice, he must've already been used to it.

"Your highness do you know that many would kill to be there?" Pei ming can't help but sigh looking at xie lian as if he'd grown two heads.

"isn't it all same?" Xie lian asked and many remembered how he had lived all this time and winced while thinking about what he meant by that.

"Gege... Isn't my ghost city more livelier than heaven?" hua cheng asked and Xie lian smiled nodding.

"Then gege should visit more often" said hua cheng while giving him a big smile that instantly lighted up Xie lian's gloomy heart.

However Lang qianqui objected "i dont need you to banish yourself. Ascension is based of on skill alone. I only want a dual"

"I don't want to fight you" Xie lian replied.

"WHY NOT" Qianqui shouted "It's not like we have never fought before. Life or death doesn't matter, I don't need you to let me off easy either. Let's put an end to this!"

"No reason" Xie lian said "but fight me and you'll surely die"

"You will" Feng xin told Qianqui nodding. And many nodded as well agreeing.

Although the words were said casually, gasps could be heard from all around. Many of the martial gods had the same thought: You’re nothing more than a powerless rubbish god! How could you be so shameless as to tell Lang Qianqiu, the one Martial God of the East, “fight me and you will surely
die”? What arrogance! It was like he asked to be banished because fighting Lang Qianqiu was beneath him. Absolute bullshit.
