Immortal Supreme Sovereign - C135
At the same time that the black rune appeared on Wen Zhenghua’s face, the zombie that had been entangled with Han Xiangtian suddenly stopped and flew towards him as if it was summoned.
“Quick, stop the living corpse. Wen Zhenghua wants to merge with him.” Seeing the actions of the two, Leng Qinghe gave a loud shout as he flew in front of Wen Zhenghua with an illusory sword in his hand, directly slashing at him.
Although the sword did not have a physical form, the sword Qis that flowed out caused the nearby ground to shatter into pieces. Even though there was demonic energy continuously replenishing around him in the center of the sword Qis, Wen Zhenghua still felt as if his skin was being sliced by thousands of swords and was extremely painful.
On the other side, when Han Xiangtian heard Leng Qinghe’s words, he thought of what Han Xiao had said about flying in front of the corpse, and summoned a ball of flame to sprinkle down from all directions. “Fire Cage, Prison Immortal.” With Han Xiangtian’s shout, countless pillars of fire shot into the sky from where the flames scattered. With Han Xiangtian as the center, the entire sky was dominated by flames, and the corpse couldn’t help but be stopped in its tracks by the flames.
“Roar!” Feeling that he was trapped, the zombie roared into the sky. Then, it turned around and directly appeared in front of Han Xiangtian in a flash, mercilessly attacking him.
Han Xiangtian had also seen the power of this accompanying corpse before, so he naturally didn’t dare to be careless. He brandished the long spear in his hand, and blocked the movements of the accompanying corpse.
Clank, clank, clank, clank.” The spear stabbed into the living corpse with a crisp sound, as if it had not hit a body, but a stone or a weapon.
“Dang.” Another crisp sound rang out as the spear left a white mark on the zombie’s body, but the zombie didn’t seem to notice as it pounced towards Han Xiangtian once again.
At this moment, Wen Zhenghua was also attacking Leng Qinghe without any care for his own life. Every punch and kick caused the ground to shake, and every Martial Technique he executed caused cracks to appear in the surrounding palaces and the ground.
Although Han Xiao could also feel the intensity of the battle in the air more than a hundred meters away, and although he was worried and wanted to move forward, he knew that even if he went up, he would only be cannon fodder, and that would only distract Han Xiangtian and the others.
“Heavens, what happened?”
“Run! The house is about to collapse!”
“Wait a moment, quickly, someone help me up.”
“Run! We’re going to die!” The imperial palace was in a state of chaos due to the effects of the battle. The imperial concubines who lived here were all panicking as they grabbed the valuable items from the palace and ran outside, as if they were worried that they would be affected too if they ran too late.
“First Sword Style.” Leng Qinghe let out a soft shout as he swung his arm, sending out a golden sword Qi towards Wen Zhenghua.
When Wen Zhenghua saw the golden sword qi, he felt a strong sense of threat. Leng Qinghe’s own martial art was called the Five Styles of the Sword. Although it was only five moves, it was extremely powerful; as long as Leng Qinghe used the Five Styles of the Sword, even a late stage Immortal would die with hatred.
“Yun!” Just as Wen Zhenghua was about to use his martial art, he felt a pain in his chest when he lowered his head to look at his chest, where a wound over a foot long had appeared. At the same time, he felt a wave of sword Qi rush through his body, cutting his internal organs into pieces. He hurriedly used Origin Energy to protect his important internal organs, but the sword Qi completely ignored the Origin Energy, directly slicing his internal organs into pieces.
“Cough, cough.” He looked at the pieces of flesh in the center of his palm, and he could feel that his life force was rapidly slipping away. The living corpse seemed to have sensed the danger coming from this side and accelerated its attack, and at the same time, it wanted to escape from the fire cage. However, Han Xiangtian was determined to trap him and not give him any chance to escape.
“Wen Zhenghua, who refined the accompanying corpse?” Seeing that there was no longer any threat from him, Leng Qinghe slowly walked up to him and asked.
“I accidentally read it when I was flipping through the ancient books. At that time, I thought that the accompanying corpse could quickly increase my cultivation, so I refined two of them.” Wen Zhenghua said.
“I’m not a three year old child, you can’t lie to me about that. I’ll give you one more chance to ask, who refined the corpse of the companion. If you still don’t want to tell me the truth, then I can only kill my way up to the Demon Shadow Sect to find the answer.” Leng Qinghe said coldly. His left hand was slightly bent, ready to take Wen Zhenghua’s life at any moment.
“Yes!”
“Bang!”
As soon as Wen Zhenghua said that word, a loud sound suddenly came from the other side of the fire cage. The fire cage that covered half of the sky was immediately blown away by the explosion.
“Bam.” A figure covered in flames descended from the sky and landed heavily on the ground. After seeing the figure, Han Xiao’s pupils constricted as he shouted, “Royal father.” He shouted and wanted to run over, but the weakness of his body made him stand up and heavily fall to the ground. He could only hate himself for his incompetence on the ground.
“Hahahaha, I understand. Leng Qinghe, do you want the answer? Then come with me to the Underworld to ask.” Seeing the explosion, Wen Zhenghua suddenly laughed out loud, and suddenly rushed forward to hug Leng Qinghe tightly. His body swelled rapidly, and with a “peng” sound, half of the palace was completely turned into powder, while the guards nearby, upon being hit by the explosion, all of them fell to the ground, losing their breath. Han Xiao, who was too close to the ground, was once again hit by the explosion, and was sent flying two hundred meters away before he fell heavily onto the ground.
However, at this moment, he could no longer feel the injuries on his body. His eyes were fixed on the center of the explosion.
A thousand meters away from Han Xiao and the rest, a young man dressed in a purple robe was being pulled by a Four-Eyed Spirit Beast. He was watching the explosion with a smile on the corner of his mouth, flanked by the current Sect Master of the Devil Shadow Sect, Zou Shimei, and Han Zhao, who had disappeared in the western gorge.
“Wen Zhenghua is smart enough to understand what I mean. However, Han Zhao, you guys have really failed this time. Not only did you fail to control the Yun Ming Empire, but you also caused me to lose two of my dead bodies. How do you think we should punish you?” The young man said lazily. Although his tone was plain, it made Han Zhao shudder.
“Young Master, I, this lowly person, have also worked hard. You also saw that if it wasn’t for that lowly bastard Han Xiao, this matter would have been accomplished long ago.” Han Zhao immediately knelt down in fear.
“Young master, it’s too late to punish them now. This lowly one is worried that Leng Qinghe and the others will follow up on the matter regarding Wen Zhenghua and investigate the Devil Shadow Sect. When that time comes, Young Master’s plans for all these years will be revealed.” Zou Shimei said worriedly.
“Before I came here, I already thought of the accident and had them move those zombies away. In addition, Wen Zhenghua wasn’t punished by you to face the wall, since you only know that he was facing the wall, then what did it have to do with you? It’s a pity that it took 10,000 people to make that corpse of Wen Zhenghua, but now I have to personally destroy it.” The violet-clothed youth said indifferently.
“Originally, I wanted to use the relationship between Han Zhao and Wen Zhenghua to control the Yun Ming Empire and slowly use the citizens of the Yun Ming Empire to refine the living corpses. Who would have thought that these two pieces of trash would not even be able to accomplish such a small task. However, the progress of the Qing Empire has successfully made up for this loss.” Zou Shimei said.
He indifferently glanced at the purple-clothed youth and said, “After all, the Qing Dynasty is only a small empire. In terms of overall quality, it is much worse than the Yunming Empire. However, it is still better than nothing.” After speaking, the purple-clothed youth stood up and gently placed his hand on Han Zhao’s head and said, “However, although there is the Qing Dynasty, this failure was entirely because of you and Wen Zhenghua. If you didn’t leave Han Xiao and Han Xiangtian alive, how could there be such trouble? Since your mufei and grandpa are dead, you should go and match them up.” After saying this, the purple-clothed youth fiercely smacked his hand on Han Zhao’s head. Before he could even beg for mercy, Han Zhao’s head was smashed into pieces, and all the bones in his body had been shattered into pieces.
Seeing the purple-robed youth’s move, Zou Shimei’s heart trembled. She quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped the purple-robed youth’s hand and threw Han Zhao’s corpse down. Then, she stood respectfully behind the purple-clothed youth with her head lowered, not daring to say another word.
“The disciples of the Cloud Ming Empire should give up as well. If anyone asks, just say that they have betrayed the Devil Shadow Sect and do nothing.” The purple-clothed youth said as he looked in the direction of the Cloud Imperial Palace with an indifferent expression.
“Yes, little one understands. Han Xiangtian and the others.” Zou Shimei asked.
“It doesn’t matter that they were lucky this time around, but the omen academy has already set their eyes on the corpses. They should keep a low profile for the time being, after all, there are still ten years until the Saint Force invades. I don’t want anything to go wrong at this time.” The purple-clothed youth indifferently said as he turned around and was about to let Zou Shimei follow him, but just as he turned around, he seemed to have thought of something and said, “That’s right, show me that Han Xiao’s information. I really want to know what kind of person would cause my plan to go down the drain.” After speaking, he drove the carriage away.
