“Presumptuous!”
“You must be tired of living!”
There was an uproar as Lei Tingwei and countless elders of the Lei Clan were roaring with rage, but no one dared to make a move. After all, Lei Gu had shouted ‘stop’ earlier. The major clans had a very important rule. As long as Lei Gu didn’t give the order, not even Lei Tingwei would dare to overstep his authority.
Lei Gu looked very old, and even his brows were white. When he heard Jiang Yi’s statement, his face didn’t have any ripples of emotion as he simply responded indifferently, “Jiang Yi, you are indeed a generational prodigy. This old one is 87 years old this year, and it is indeed unfair for me to make a move to deal with you. But… this world was never fair to begin with. You have killed many of the Lei Clan’s descendants, and this old one has no choice but to kill you today!”
Lei Gu extended his hand which slowly condensed with essence force. Before his attack was even formed, a world-extinguis.h.i.+ng aura presence was emitted from his palm, causing everyone present to feel their soul spirit shuttering.
“Hahaha!”
Right at this moment, a burst of aged and forceful laughter echoed from the east. This voice felt as though it had echoed from over millions of miles away, making it feel like a mist and from very far away. The forceful voice echoed again. “Lei Clan’s little child, you are 87 years old this year? This Great One is already more than 700,000 years old. If I am to make a move and deal with you, would it be unfair?”
“More than 700,000 years old…”
Countless people rolled their eyes. If they didn’t hear it wrongly, then that person must be out of his mind.
What was the concept of over 700,000 years old? Humans would only be able to live over a few centuries even if they reached the DemiG.o.d Realm. Demonic beasts had a longer lifespan, but they would only be able to live up to three or four thousand years old. Seven hundred thousand years old? Wouldn’t that individual be a G.o.d?
“En?”
Lei Tingwei, Nangong Yunyi, Lu Li, Huangfu Qi, and the others were shaking. Some important elders of some clans had this change of expression. Lei Gu stopped the attack in his hand as he looked towards the east with a heavy expression.
“Ah? The Forebear is actually here?”
Princess Qianqian was surprised as she turned her head abruptly and muttered softly. The Black G.o.d’s grim expression also revealed a trace of surprise. The golden barrier vanished from his body as he had this respectful and devout expression.
“This voice…”
Jiang Yi’s soul spirit shook, and his dimmed eyes lit up quickly. He was very familiar with this voice. His Fire Cloud Armor, Heaven Evasion, and Dest.i.tute Dragon Gra.s.s were all granted by this individual.
That’s right!
The owner of this voice belonged to the Fengdu City’s ghost king inside the Mystic Divine Palace, the guardian of the Mystic Divine Palace!
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
Ten figures flew out rapidly from G.o.ds Bestow City like Azure Dragons. Immediately after, Situ Ao led a group of Situ Clan’s experts and flew straight for Sky Ascension Peak. The ten individuals at the front were all very old, and the one at the front was actually Lei Clan’s Patriarch. The ten of them flew to Lei Gu’s side and looked to the east with this stern expression.
Chi! Chi!
There was a rainbow radiance which broke through the sky from the east. It formed a heaven path just like a real rainbow. On the other side of the heaven path, four figures emerged, who were two males and two females. The four individuals had flouris.h.i.+ng aura presence, and many weaker martial artists could already feel the pressure when they were still ten million miles away.
“Demon Sovereigns!”
Many people exclaimed softly. Only the demon race’s Demon Sovereigns would possess such aura presence. From the looks of the situation, these four Demon Sovereigns were just opening up the path?
As expected!
There was a gigantic war chariot that flew from behind. The war chariot was covered in purple gold and was over 300 meters in size. The war chariot was pulled by two entirely snow-white unicorns, and the horns on these unicorns were golden in color. Two pairs of wings flapped constantly as they flew over rapidly while pulling the war chariot.
“Golden-Horn Dragon Horse!”
The eyes of some knowledgeable individuals had pulled back. In fact, these were not unicorns; they were the fastest type of demonic beasts from the Endless Deep Sea. The horns on these two dragon horses had evolved into a golden color, meaning these two dragon horses had reached the strength of the Demon Sovereign Realm.
On both sides of the war chariot, there were four individuals standing guard, and their aura presences weren’t inferior to the four at the front. There were also four individuals following behind the war chariot, and it was needless to say that they were Demon Sovereigns, too.
Twelve Demon Sovereigns, in addition to the two Golden Horn Dragon Horses, making a total of fourteen Demon Sovereigns!
The demon race’s strength realm was similar to the human race. The Demon Sovereigns were pinnacle existences, and their strengths were comparable to the human race’s DemiG.o.d. The Black G.o.d was also a Demon Sovereign, and when he appeared, even Lei Tingwei and the others had to go welcome him and bowed to him with respect. It was clear to see the strength and status of Demon Sovereigns!
Right now…
Fourteen Demon Sovereigns were actually used as guards and attendants? It had obviously foretold the status of the individual sitting inside the war chariot—the Thearch of the Endless Deep Sea!
The Endless Deep Sea was ma.s.sive, and it was 100 folds bigger than the Blood Night Fearsome Sea. It was the place with the demon race’s largest a.s.sembly. Back then, many great demons that had been pursued by the Mystic Thearch were all chased into the Endless Deep Sea. The G.o.ds Bestow Tribe was able to survive until this date was also because of the alliance with the Endless Deep Sea. Therefore, everyone suddenly understood at this moment why at the old fellows from the four major clans had all emerged and had such solemn expressions.
“Something isn’t right…”
Many people suddenly thought of a question. That aged and forceful voice had said that he was going to make a move to deal with Lei Gu? The G.o.ds Bestow Tribe and the Endless Deep Sea were allies. Without the G.o.ds Bestow tribe, the Endless Deep Sea and the East Imperial Continent wouldn’t have a buffer zone. Why did the owner of that aged voice say he wanted to deal with Lei Gu?
Swis.h.!.+
The four Demon Sovereigns were the first to arrive while the Black G.o.d carried Princess Qianqian and quickly greeted them. Qianqian then flew directly into the purple gold war chariot before the war chariot slowly stopped.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
All the Demon Sovereigns flew over and knelt down on one knee while shouting, “Welcome, Thearch!”
Lei Clan’s Patriarch, Lei Banxian, led all the Half G.o.d experts, cupped their fists, and bowed. “Welcome, Lord Ao Lu!”
“Welcome, Lord Ao Lu!”
Lei Tingwei and the others quickly gathered and bowed with cupped fists and greeted loudly with respect. The old fellows had already lowered their heads; would they dare not do the same?
“Hmph!”
A cold snort echoed as the purple gold war chariot flashed with radiance and vanished from mid-air. A black-robed elder with green hair appeared in the sky while Princess Qianqian was lovingly pulling his hand.
The green-haired elder looked even older as his face was filled with wrinkles. The aura presence from his body made everyone feel as though he was a pseudo-divine artifact that had been through eternity. He didn’t look at the kneeling Demon Sovereigns nor Lei Banxian, Lei Gu, and others. Instead, he looked at Jiang Yi and grinned. “Kid, it has been a long time.”
Jiang Yi’s mouth was still dripping with blood, and his face was still ghastly pained. He stared blankly at the elder, swallowed a mouthful of bloodied saliva, and replied, “Senior, we… never met before, right?”
“Hahaha!”
Ao Lu laughed heartily, and there wasn’t any intention to rebuke Jiang Yi. Instead, he nodded and said, “That’s right. You haven’t seen this Great One before, but I have seen you before. I am indeed old and muddled.”
“Forebear isn’t old at all!”
Princess Qianqian let out a sweet smile and immediately looked at Jiang Yi and asked curiously, “Forebear, didn’t you just return? How did you get to know Jiang Yi?”
Qianqian’s question was the same question that everyone wanted to ask. Ao Lu rubbed Qianqian’s head with drowning love and laughed while saying, “Qianqian. Forebear is able to return all because of this kid. If this kid didn’t see through the Mystic Thearch’s arrangements, Forebear might have to die of old age inside the Mystic Divine Palace.”
“Ah?”
Qianqian’s eyes lit up while Black G.o.d and the others looked at Jiang Yi with astonishment and grat.i.tude. Everyone was in a daze as they looked at Jiang Yi with an especially complicated expression.
“Not good!”
Lei Tingwei, Lei Qiyan, Nangong Yunyi, and many of the three clans’ members s.h.i.+vered. Everyone had understood why Ao Lu mentioned that he was going to deal with Lei Gu earlier.
As soon as Ao Lu cast his glance at Lei Gu and the others, his expression turned cold as he asked in a serious tone, “Lei Clan’s little child. Are you sure you are going to kill this kid? If this Great One wants to protect him today, are you going to start a fight with this old one?”
Buzz!
Just as Ao Lu’s voice turned silent, the aura presences of Demon Sovereigns from the Endless Deep Sea had all turned berserk while their eyes were filled with severe killing aura. They had the expression as though they were going to raze G.o.ds Bestow City to the ground as soon as Ao Lu gave the orders.
“I…”
Lei Gu’s expression had a deathlike pallor while his eyes flickered. He stared blankly for a moment and gritted his teeth. “Lord Ao Lu, this person is a spy from the East Imperial Continent!”
“Bullsh*t!”
Ao Lu immediately responded with a burst of foul language. He glared at the members of the Lei Clan and said, “If this kid is a spy, then your entire Lei Clan are spies. What are you glaring at me for? Do you believe this Great One will kill you with a single slap?!”
