Chapter 497 The Truth “Since he is in the Demon Clan territory, can’t we kill him here?” Xu Beiwang asked. In his opinion, even though this man had killed over ten Immortals, as long as he had not reached Golden Immortal Realm, Xu Beiwang could summon the Immortals here and the fiercest beasts to kill that man. Wei Gong shook his head, “If we could kill him, I would not be standing here.” Confused, Xu Beiwang asked, “May I know the reason?” Wei Gong sighed, “Since he is under the protection of Qi Granted by the Tao of Heaven, he would not just idle around, right?” “The protection of Luck of heaven? He was given the Luck of heaven?” Xu Beiwang was shocked, then he realized the seriousness of the problem, “Who… Who is he?” Wei Gong cast him a complicated glance. His words sounded even more complicated, “Prince An of Tang Empire, Li Ye.” “Li Ye?” Xu Beiwang murmured this name. He felt like there were a million words he wanted to say, but he did not know where to start. He did not know how he should react to that answer. Later, he only popped a question, “So the message is about how to deal with him? But we can’t kill him. How are we supposed to do anything to him?” Wei Gong was back to his usual calm self. After all, he had known about this long ago. He said slowly, “He might be the scourge of the Immortal Court. There is a possibility that he will end the Immortal Court’s reign of the mortals. If he can’t do that, he will not become a threat to us. Then we can discuss the possible ways of killing him.” “There are not many powerful Great Cultivators around Li Ye. He only has the help of the cultivators of the demon clan. Now Immortal Court has sent forces to the mortals’ world. They want to conquer it and choose an emperor. You know the might of the Taoist Soldiers. The mortals can’t stop them.” “So our mission is to ensure no cultivators can leave this place!” “The scale of the beast tide this time is bigger than ever. I heard that the Immortal Court will dispatch all the powers they have accumulated during the past thousands of years. As long as the beast tide causes enough chaos in this land, their cultivators cannot come to Li Ye’s aid.” “As long as we can hold them back for a period of time, the Taoist soldiers will have enough time to descend to the mortal world. By then they will be able to defeat Li Ye’s army and conquer their land. We will choose one mortal to be the emperor to continue our reign of the mortals. By then, Li Ye will not be much of a threat by himself.” Xu Beiwang suddenly understood and nodded. He finally understood why the Immortals needed to command the beast tide this time. Compared with all the beast tides on this land, the beast tide in Blackstone was very small. But according to what Wei Gong said, it was the vanguard, which was of crucial importance. It was imaginable that the beast tides on this land would be full-blown within a few days. It would be a true feast for those beasts by then. Wei Gong glanced at Xu Beiwang, the disappointment plain in his eyes. “You were assigned to lead a legion and expected to achieve something great. But sadly, you have not done anything useful yet. It is really bad for the overall situation in Blackstone Ridge. Xu Beiwang opened his mouth and found himself at a loss for words. Indeed, it was his fault. He did not have any excuse for it. There were three Taiyi Real Immortals commanding the beast tides in Blackstone Ridge, except for the center.. Xu Beiwang was the first to be totally defeated. Though there were not many of the beasts under his command that died, he deserted them on the battlefield and returned alone. It was not considered as retreating, but giving up one-third of the periphery battlefield. The impact of that was beyond any doubt. “I encountered someone who serves Taoist Dust. I do not know what he is capable of and I do not dare to fight him… Besides, Zhenjiang City has sent three Taiyi Real Immortal Realm cultivators, six thousand Qi-refining cultivators and hundreds of great cultivators to attack us. It is impossible for us to defend…” Xu Beiwang said with a trace of bitterness. “Never mind!” Wei Gong flailed his hands, seemingly reluctant to say anything. “Indeed, The Taoist Dust’s followers are hard to deal with. I will think about it after I deploy troops of defense. Before that, you should stay by my side and prepare yourself for combat.”Read More chapter at vi pnovel. com He returned alone, but Wei Gong did not blame him. Instead, Wei Gong gave him a chance of redemption, which made him feel elated. “I will not fail you!” … Compared to Huaguo Mountain, Macaque Mountain was much grander. Beside its towering main peak, the other peaks surrounding the main peak seemed like stars pampering the moon. No doubt it was dangerous to walk about on these mountains. However, Huaguo Mountain was blessed with more beauty. After all, it was a sacred place in the mortal world. Its history was lengthy. But now Huaguo Mountain was desolate, while Macaque Mountain teemed with life. Some demons said that the Macaque King was carefree and others said he was still wild. But what was confirmed was that Macaque King liked living in the woods and playing with the demons at his service. He did not like handling the affairs in his territory and others were often confused by his way of doing things. When the first beam of light touched the trees in the mountain, a monkey demon ran out from its cave with a handful of fruits. He dashed down the winding passage. Soon he stopped at a plain piece of ground outside the woods. This was where the monkey demons often played with each other. They liked drinking, wrestling and combing each other’s hairs in this place. But now it was too early for them to come here. The monkey demons that usually came here to play were bad at cultivation. Once their cultivation and spiritual intelligence had leveled up, they would be too busy with their cultivation, instead of playing with the common monkeys. On the edge of the plain ground, a monkey hung on a tree. It looked peaceful as it swayed with its arms crossed and eyes closed. “Your grace, here is your breakfast. The monkey demon put the fresh fruits on a stone table beside and arranged them neatly. The monkey hanging on the tree opened its eyes sluggishly. He waved and a peach appeared in his hand. He steadied himself by grabbing the branch with one arm. Then it started to enjoy the peach. The demon monkey picked up a bunch of grapes and began eating them. “I did not want to bother you while you were enjoying your peach.” A spirit in the form of a monkey suddenly appeared behind the trunk. It floated in midair and it seemed unhappy with the monkey. Its voice was very low. “Is there anything more important than eating a peach?” The monkey said in a carefree manner. It did not even look back as if the spirit behind it was his shadow.Read More chapter at vi pnovel. com The spirit sneered, “Li Ye killed the bear demon in Panfeng City, then he went to Blackstone Ridge to deal with the beast tide there. Do you think he has been in any real danger? You are the king of Macaque Mountain. You don’t feel embarrassed at all?” The monkey threw away the peach-stone and grabbed another peach. “Let him do what he wants. But he can never run away from me. I did not finish him off at Panfeng City. But since I can do it here, what should I worry about?” He took a bite of the peach as he said so. The sound of his chewing was loud. “It is so boring.” The spirit replied with a gloomy face, “Can you be more serious about it? It is not as easy as peeling a peach! That damn stone monkey asked us to let him in. I can’t let him do anything he wants on the land. He must be killed as soon as possible!” Macaque King finished his second peach and jumped from the branch. He stretched his body and said, “I will do it in the same way regardless if I am serious or not. In my opinion, none of these things can be more important than my peaches.” Then he waved his hands and said, “Anyway, inform Zhao Bofu that he should send a message to the cultivators at Blackstone Ridge.” The spirit did not say anything because it knew Macaque King’s temperament. It turned around and decided to do the things he was just told to do. … Li Ye and Zhao Batian were already in position. They glared at each other as if there was a feud between them. On the top of the mountain, there were about six hundred Great Cultivators watching. They all found themselves a place where they could get a better view. The match was about to begin under thousands of eyes. “A Ground Immortal Realm cultivator challenging a Sky Immortal Realm cultivator? He is absolutely looking for defeat. Who does he think he is?” A rogue cultivator of Sky Immortal Realm sneered. “He defeated several cultivators and became overconfident. He must be thinking he is unbeatable now. It is ridiculous!” A cultivator of Ground Immortal Realm sneered. He sounded envious of Li Ye. “Although arm-wrestling does require some skills, it will become meaningless if one side has an absolute advantage of power.” Someone sighed. But then all the cultivators from Zhenjiang City and other rogue cultivators found that all the Great Cultivators who came here with Li Ye seemed very confident about Li Ye. It made them feel confused. They wondered why these cultivators were not worried for their companion. The female cultivator saved by Li Ye even looked excited, as if she had been expecting this. Zhao Batian looked at Li Ye with bloodshot eyes, “Young boy, don’t cry if you lose!” Li Ye’s eyes were also red and he said, “You too!” Then the two began competing.
