Chapter 2295  Kulasʼ Mistake

After sensing Kulasʼ immense killing intent that engulfed the entire palace, Tian Yang rushed out of his room and ran toward the throne room, where Kulas was having his meeting with the Three Pillars of Heaven.

”Hey! Whatʼs going on?!” Sun Rouxi asked as she and the others followed behind.

”I would love to know, too!” Tian Yang said.

”Could it be one of his episodes?” Ren Xia guessed out loud.

”Episodes?” Jing Ruye questioned.

”Sorry, but itʼs a little personal, so I cannot explain without Kulasʼ permission,” Tian Yang apologized.

”Is that so…”

They quickly arrived at the throne room, only to find that its doors were gone—not opened or shattered, but forcibly torn away. Two members of the Three Pillars of Heaven lay unconscious on the ground, their bodies strewn amid the wreckage.

Tian Yang didnʼt hesitate and rushed inside. The remaining members stood before Kulas, each of them grievously injured. One, however, lay motionless on the floor, his entire head crushed beyond recognition.

”What is the meaning of this, Giant Emperor?! Why did you suddenly attack us?!”

”Have you gone insane?! Not only did you attack us, but you even killed one of us! Are you trying to declare war against the Three Pillars of Heaven?!”

The remaining members of the Three Pillars of Heaven shouted at Kulas while clutching their life-saving treasures.

However, Kulas merely stood there, as if lost in a daze.

”Kulas!”

Tian Yang rushed forward, positioning himself directly between Kulas and the others.

”Kulas! What are you doing?!”

This time, Kulas reacted. The emptiness in his gaze faded as reason swiftly returned.

”Wh-What happened…?” he asked in a puzzled tone.

”Thatʼs what we should be asking, Giant Emperor!”

”You suddenly attacked us while we were talking!”

”What!” Kulasʼ expression sank as he realized that heʼd just lost his temper again.

”How dare you act surprised like you werenʼt aware?! Are you mocking us?!”

”Bastard, you killed one of our people unprovoked! I hope youʼre prepared for the consequences!”

”W-Wait! I can explain!” Kulas hastily said.

”Thereʼs nothing to explain!”

”Weʼll be taking our leave now!”

The members of the Three Pillars of Heaven were all between Bronze and Golden Immortal, so there was nothing they could do before Kulas, who was a True Immortal. Even if they wanted revenge, they would need to return to their family first.

However, just as they turned around and prepared to leave, Tian Yang stood in their way and stopped them.

”Who the hell are you?!”

Tian Yang then said, ”Although it wonʼt change what had happened, allow the Giant Emperor to explain himself first.”

”Are you telling us to stay here and wait for him to attack us again?! How ridiculous!”

”I will personally ensure that he wonʼt harm another hair on your bodies. I promise,” he replied.

”We wonʼt listen to the words of a nobody like you!” ”You can trust him,” Sun Rouxi suddenly stepped forward and said.

”Lady Sun…? What is your relationship with this man?”

”Weʼre acquaintances.”

”...”

”Weʼll listen to your excuse, but we will leave immediately afterward.” One of them eventually said.

Now that he had a chance to clear up the confusion, Kulas explained his condition to them. However, it didnʼt lessen the victimsʼ anger. If anything, it only made them angrier.

”So you decided to meet with us while knowing about your own instability?! Thatʼs reckless and irresponsible of you, Giant Emperor!”

”It hadnʼt happened in over fifty years, so I thought it was fine…” Kulas sighed. ”I apologize for my mistake, and I am willing to compensate for your losses.”

”How dare you even speak of compensation?! You killed one of our people! Thereʼs nothing you can do to compensate for that!”

Kulas had no response, so he remained silent, his expression full of guilt.

Soon, Kulasʼ family and guards arrived at the scene, as they also noticed the commotion.

No longer feeling safe, the members of the Three Pillars of Heaven dared not linger any longer and prepared to leave.

”Lady Sun, weʼre leaving! We must report this to the rest of the family as soon as possible!”

Sun Rouxi wanted to stay a little longer to talk to Tian Yang more about the situation, but given the circumstances, she had no choice but to return to the Holy Continent.

Once they all left, Kulas explained the situation to his family.

”I fucked up,” he admitted with a heavy sigh. ”I lost my temper during our conversation, and by the time I realized, I had attacked them, even killing one of them.”

”This… what will happen now?” One of his wives asked.

”Will it lead to war?” Another asked.

”Given our current standing, itʼs unlikely that war will break out. However, itʼs not impossible,” Kulas said after pondering for a moment.

Now that the Giant Continent had become a true powerhouse, a war with the Three Pillars of Heaven would undoubtedly affect the entire world and unleash unprecedented devastation. It was not something that could be taken lightly.

”Thereʼs nothing we can do but wait for their response. Until then, I am going to enter seclusion,” Kulas suddenly declared. ”I must deal with this instability of mine once and for all, no matter what it takes.”

”Unless the Three Pillars of Heaven act, do not disturb me.”

After giving instructions to his family, Kulas turned to look at Tian Yang and said, ”Iʼm sorry. Because of my mistake, I have offended the Three Pillars of Heaven. You should leave the Giant Continent for the time being—at least until things cool down.” 

”Are you really going to push us away after what happened?” Tian Yang frowned.

”Yes, I am. Unless you know how to fix my condition, thereʼs nothing you can do for me. I know youʼre angry and disappointed, but I would rather you feel that way for the rest of your life than endanger you.”

”...”

As much as he hated to admit it, Kulas was right. There was nothing they could do, especially when they didnʼt even know what was causing his mood swings.
