The old ape gave the two of them a few more reminders before returning to the Sanguine Ape World.
Monkey seemed to have sensed the worry in Su Zimo’s heart and asked, “Do you have any old friends in the Dragon World?”
Su Zimonodded. “LongRan.”
Long Ran was the red-headed ghost of Tianhuang Mainland.
The reason why Su Zimo could stand at the peak of Tianhuang Mainland eventually was largely because of the red-headed ghost’s help. In fact, the latter had saved his life!
In reality, the existence of the Dragon Phoenix True Body was partly credited to the red-headed ghost.
Su Zimo often addressed Long Ran as the red-headed ghost. However, in reality, he respected him immensely.
In Su Zimo’s heart, Long Ran was like a teacher and a father. He was not just an old friend of Tianhuang Mainland.
Therefore, back when he met Long Li on the Dragon Abyss Star, he took the initiative to ask about the red-headed ghost, hoping that Long Li would take care of the latter.
When he left the Sword World this time round, the first person he thought of looking for was Monkey. The second was the red-headed ghost.
Night Spirit’s whereabouts were unknown and there was no way to find him.
Yun Zhu had always been in contact with Yun Ting and had once revealed Xiaoning’s situation to Su Zimo through Yun Ting.
Xiaoning was currently in the Elixir Firmament Immortal Domain of the Heavenly World and everything was going smoothly. She was fine.
Although Su Zimo missed her, he was not worried.
One day, he would return to the Heavenly World and settle some grudges.
As for the red-headed ghost, although he was taken care of by Long Li in the Dragon World, if he was in the Battle of the Dragons and Phoenixes, a Grotto- heaven King like him could die at any moment. A war between super large worlds would probably lead to great instability as well.
Now that he heard that the Battle of the Dragons and Phoenixes was so tragic, the situation of the red-headed ghost worried him even more.
Monkey knew the status of the red-headed ghost in Su Zimo’s heart. “Let’s go to the Dragon World! I’ve never seen a world war before. It’s a good opportunity to broaden my horizons and test my methods.”
“Of course we’ll go to the Dragon World.”
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, “However, there’s no need for us to interfere in the world war between the Dragons and Phoenixes. If possible, we can just take the red-headed ghost away.”
The Battle of the Dragons and Phoenixes had already lasted for many years and he did not know the reason at all.
Furthermore, since the battle between the worlds had reached this point and even Emperor experts from both sides had died, it was already an irreconcilable situation and there was no room for negotiation.
Su Zimo still had that self-awareness.
At the very least, given the current cultivation realm of the Green Lotus True Body, even if he partic.i.p.ated in such a world war, it would not affect the overall situation.
He had only one goal for heading to the Dragon World this time round—to bring the red-headed ghost away from danger.
The old ape sped through a spatial tunnel at an extremely fast speed.
Thinking about it, he had been out for a while. He had to return before the two Horse Monkey Emperors returned so that nothing else would happen.
The old ape was a peak Emperor after all and returned to the Sanguine Ape World in less than four hours.
The moment he descended in front of the cave abode, another Sanguine Ape Emperor welcomed him with an extremely shocked expression and even a look of astonishment in his eyes. He said in a low voice, “World Lord, something major has happened!”
The old ape’s heart sank as he asked hurriedly, “The two Horse Monkeys are back?”
“No.”
The Sanguine Ape Emperor shook his head and gulped. “They shouldn’t be able to return…”
“Hmm?”
The old ape frowned.
He seemed to have heard those words just now.
“What do you mean?”
The old ape asked with a frown.
The Sanguine Ape Emperor grinned. “A huge battle broke out in the Great Wilderness World. The Blessed Heaven World and the faction behind them sent a hundred Emperor experts to besiege Demon Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly…”
“I know that.”
The old ape was a little impatient and interrupted, “Those two Horse Monkeys went as well. Although Demon Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly is invincible, she can’t defend against a hundred Emperors and will definitely die. What did you mean by saying that they shouldn’t be able to return?”
“World Lord, you’re wrong.”
At the mention of that, the Sanguine Ape Emperor seemed to have become extremely agitated and his voice trembled. “More than half of the hundred Emperor experts of the Blessed Heaven World died and returned in defeat!”
“What?!”
The old ape was shocked and exclaimed.
“That Blood b.u.t.terfly has become a Great Emperor?”
The old ape blurted out and denied immediately, “No, that’s impossible! There will definitely be a phenomenon after becoming a Great Emperor and all living beings of the ten thousand races will sense it.”
“It’s Desolate Martial!”
The Sanguine Ape Emperor said, “Desolate Martial returned in time and suppressed a hundred Emperor experts single-handedly. He was invincible and more than ten peak Emperors died. Those two Horse Monkeys died in Desolate Martial’s hands as well!”
When the old ape heard that, his mouth opened instinctively and his eyes widened. His emotions surged and he could not calm down for a long time.
More than half of the hundred Emperor experts were dead or injured!
More than ten peak Emperor experts died!
The Blessed Heaven World had lost!
Furthermore, it was a crus.h.i.+ng defeat!
On the one hand, the old ape was shocked by the terrifying combat strength Desolate Martial displayed.
On the other hand, he felt an indescribable joy when he learned that the Blessed Heaven World had suffered a crus.h.i.+ng defeat and the two Horse Monkey Emperors were dead!
It was as though all the emotions that he had suppressed for many years were vented at that moment.
“Good, good…”
After a long while, the old ape merely repeated the word ‘good’ repeatedly.
“There’s more.”
The Sanguine Ape Emperor continued, “More than 200 years ago, Monkey King Scarlet Sea and the others who chased after Yuan Huang and that sword cultivator had not returned all these years…”
“Not long ago, there was news from the Horse Monkey lineage that the Soul Scrolls of the 18 Kings had shattered!”
The old ape’s eyes lit up.
The shattering of the Soul Scrolls meant that the 18 Grotto-heaven Kings were already dead!
Earlier on, Monkey did not say much about their situation.
He merely mentioned that the two of them were trapped in a black hole for more than 200 years and obtained the inheritance of Great Emperor Combat by chance.
The old ape thought that Monkey King Scarlet Sea and the others had lost them and did not ask further.
To think that the 18 Horse Monkey Kings would all die!
From this timing, could the deaths of Monkey King Scarlet Sea and the others be related to Monkey and Su Zimo?
Impossible.
From Su Zimo’s aura, he had just entered the Grotto-heaven realm. How could he have killed Monkey King Scarlet Sea and the other 17 Kings?
Something must have happened.
The old ape shook his head gently and stopped thinking about it.
After all, compared to the battle in the Great Wilderness World, the death of 18 Horse Monkey Kings was nothing.
It was only at that moment that he understood the meaning of Su Zimo’s previous words.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly!
The old ape’s expression changed as though he had thought of something!
Something was amiss!
According to Monkey, the two of them had been trapped in that black hole for more than 200 years and had just come out of seclusion. How did Su Zimo know about the death of the Horse Monkey Emperors and the crus.h.i.+ng defeat of the Blessed Heaven World?
The old ape frowned in confusion.
“Emperor, the Kings have died one after another and the Horse Monkey lineage is already in chaos. Coupled with the crus.h.i.+ng defeat of the Blessed Heaven World, there’s probably no way the Blessed Heaven World would care about them.” The Sanguine Ape Emperor said with a smile.
At the mention of that, a blood glint flashed through the old ape’s eyes.
“We can take this opportunity to settle old scores with this group of Horse Monkeys!”
The old ape said slowly with a cold tone, his decrepit aura swept away.
Through this opportunity, with the old ape’s abilities and methods, he could completely control the Sanguine Ape World once more and escape the surveillance and restrictions of the Blessed Heaven World.
However, the old ape still did not intend to let Monkey return.
The chaos of the medium chiliocosm had already appeared and a battle was about to begin.
Many years ago, he put down his dignity and chose to bow down to the Blessed Heaven World.
This time round, he would hold his head high and never return!
Unyielding, resisting, fighting against the heavens and the earth!
This was the glory of the Sanguine Ape lineage!
If he was defeated, Monkey would be the future hope of the Sanguine Ape World.
