YM778.TV Chapter 2038: One-Man Reinforcement Army
There was no time to reminisce, however. The Taie Sword in Zu Ans hands moved intricately sending hundred-meter-long streaks of resplendent sword ki everywhere to behead group after group of monsters.
The young ladies eyes were full of shock. These monsters they had felt helpless against were being chopped to pieces in batches like chives! Even the thin-skinned monsters that were the toughest to deal with couldn\'t withstand a single attack from Zu An\'s sword ki.
Right now, Zu An was focused on saving people, which was why he took out his divine weapon. With his cultivation and a divine weapon, how could the power he displayed be something these monsters could possibly resist?
Again and again, large groups of monsters died all around them. The remaining monsters were left feeling a bit scared. Even though they didnt have intelligence and moved based on their instincts, they could clearly sense just how terrifying the new human was.
Thats definitely not food! We\'re actually the prey in his eyes.
Soon after, all of the monsters tacitly decided to run away in alarm. However, Zu An unleashed dozens of streaks of sword ki, erasing another large batch of monsters. Only a few managed to get away successfully.
He sighed in regret. Due to the inherent ceiling of the world\'s origin, his cultivation rank seemed to have already reached a bottleneck, stopping at level 76. Otherwise, the monsters he had slaughtered as of late could have been enough for him to climb another level.
Fortunately, even though he couldn\'t increase his cultivation rank, the Kun Peng and Heaven Devouring Sutra replenished his ki through the killing of monsters. From start to finish, he never felt tired at all, and didnt have to fight painstakingly like the others only to eventually die from exhaustion. That was why, even though he had used the Rune Weapon Chart to summon all kinds of weapons, he still wasnt sucked dry.
Only when the monsters all left did Zu An look at the woman in his arms. Her beautiful face was especially pale. He couldn\'t help but ask worriedly, Are you hurt?
Yu Yanluo\'s injuries werent light. Even though her life wasnt in danger, it wasnt that far off.
Clan leader frequently used her bloodline power to fight against the monsters. Her consumption of energy has been really great, the white-clad young lady said.
Little White, so many brothers and sisters from the clan have fallen in battle. My bit of fatigue is nothing, Yu Yanluo said; a strong sense of grief filled her beautiful eyes.
Little Blue looked at the shriveled corpse and said, The most regretful one was Elder Zhu. If he had just persisted for a bit longer, big brother Zu wouldve already arrived.
Yu Yanluo looked at him with a sentimental expression, saying, If not for Elder Zhu risking his life to save us, we might not have been able to last until this moment.
Zu An was also filled with sadness. Whether it was the time he had saved Suolun Shi or this time, he had arrived a bit too late, which resulted in people dying.
He thought for a bit, then proposed, Lets bring his corpse back to be buried properly in the Snake race\'s territory and offer compensation to his family. Build a monument for him as well, for the Snake race to eternally pass down his heroic deeds.
Yu Yanluo nodded and said, Thats all we can do. Apart from Elder Zhu, many brave warriors also sacrificed their lives here. I will also show them the glory and honor they deserve.
Clan leader is wise and virtuous! Little White and Little Blue exclaimed, bowing respectfully.
Zu An used the chance to ask, Why are you all here? What exactly happened recently?
Yu Yanluo sighed deeply, saying, It seems we fell for the Second Princes ploy.
Zu An wasnt surprised to hear that, as he had already reached the same conclusion.
Yu Yanluo continued, The Second Prince didnt wish to fight bitterly against the monsters, but instead, already colluded with the monsters a long time ago. The pretext of advancing into the sealed land was nothing more than a ruse to draw in the elites from the various races, to take us all out in one go.
Besides that, many other tribes have likely already colluded with the monsters, Zu An added.
How do you know that? Yu Yanluo asked in surprise.
Zu An told her what had happened with the Little Golden Peng King.
Hmph, and to think we actually used to adore him, Little Blue said angrily, seeming really unhappy.
Little White snuck Zu An a look, then quickly added, That was before we met big brother Zu.
Little Blue was stunned. She quickly nodded in agreement.
Zu An couldn\'t help but chuckle. The Little Golden Peng Kings status was respected, and he had been handsome too. He was even one of the Fiend races four great generals, so it wasnt surprising for him to be the target of many young ladies admiration.
Yu Yanluo also sighed and said, I never expected the Little Golden Peng King to fall into a state like that. Even so, compared to the tragedy he created, all of this is something he brought upon himself.
This time, out of the Fiend races main forces, the Elf race stayed behind in the King Court, and the Peacock Wise King stayed behind in Primeval Iron City as backup. The Second Prince led the army in rebellion, and the Golden Peng race committed betrayal. Now that the Demon races army still hasn\'t arrived, if I am not mistaken, a huge problem likely happened among the Demon race. The Scorpion King and Flying Leopard Kings troops still havent arrived at Primeval Iron City either, and there are rumors that the two have also defected. Additionally, the Lion race and the Hyena race... There are quite a few among them who have also defected. There are even traitors among the Golden Crow race.
Zu An was shocked to hear that. He said, The fact that you still havent been completely wiped out even in this kind of situation is a miracle in itself.
It is actually thanks to the Second Empress. If not for her commands being excellent as she decisively led the troops to charge into the depths of the sealed land, we might have already been completely trapped in the encirclement prepared by the monsters and completely slaughtered, Yu Yanluo said, her voice full of admiration.
Zu An was stunned. No wonder no monsters had emerged from the sealed land. So it turned out they were all busy chasing after the Second Empress. He had never expected that charming woman to have this other side to her.
As if guessing his thoughts, Yu Yanluo teased, If the Second Empress is able to safely return, she should be able to rely on her own prestige to secure the young Fiend Emperors position. She will no longer require your help.
Isnt that even better? Zu An replied happily. In the past, the reason why the Second Empress hadn\'t been able to fully display her talents was because everyone treated her as a pretty decoration without any skills. Now that she had shown her competence, it was almost as if she could now live as her true self.
Yu Yanluo had initially wanted to say are you not scared that she will no longer be fond of you anymore?, but after thinking about the current situation, she figured that such words were already quite meaningless. She changed her mind and said, Eventually, the Second Empress suffered defeat after defeat before running to Qielu Snowfield. She found the Mente City recorded in legends and used it to fend off the encirclement of countless monsters.
However, her side all knew that if things went on much longer, it would eventually result in their loss. That was why she absolutely needed reinforcements. Furthermore, after the series of betrayals she experienced, I was the only one she could trust. That was why the task of breaking out and seeking reinforcements fell to us.
Zu An was stunned, asking, The one she trusts the most is you? bender
Yu Yanluo smiled and said, In the end, you are the reason for that. She thought I still didnt know about your relationship and continued to put on all kinds of acts. She really thought I couldn\'t figure out the reason why she trusted me.
Little Whites mouth was wide open.
Did I just hear some incredible gossip I shouldnt have heard just now?
Little Blue, in contrast, had a thats only natural expression on her face.
As expected of big brother Zu, the only man even my throat cant handle. Isnt taking care of the Second Empress easy enough?
Zu Ans face heated up. He coughed and said, Now that you\'ve found me, your mission is already complete. Return to Primeval Iron City first.
Yu Yanluo was stunned, asking, Youre not going back with us?
Zu An shook his head, saying, Speed is a crucial asset in war. The Mente City the Second Empress is defending might have already fallen. I must hurry to rescue them as quickly as possible.
But what can you do by yourself? I think we should return to Primeval Iron City to gather reinforcements. That was the Second Empress plan... Yu Yanluo hurriedly said.
Zu An smiled and said, I alone am equivalent to a great army. Even though his voice seemed calm, there was a mysterious power behind his words.
Yu Yanluo became briefly absentminded, while Little White and Little Blues heart rates quickened.
Then Ill go with you, Yu Yanluo said. She had experienced all kinds of situations, so she immediately calmed down.
Your injuries are too severe and, you wouldnt be able to offer much help even if you returned with me. I would only end up being distracted taking care of you. You should return to Primeval Iron City and quickly report all of the intelligence you have, Zu An said. When he saw that she wanted to say something else, he said to the other two young ladies, Little White and Little Blue, I\'ll give the two of you a mission too. Safely escort her back to Primeval Iron City. Can you do this?
We can! Little White replied as she reflexively stuck out her chest, seeming to have gained newfound confidence.
In contrast, Little Blue moved closer to him with a smile and asked, Then what kind of reward will big brother Zu give us after?
What kind of reward do you want? Zu An asked, stunned.
Little Blue licked her lips and said, The same as last time.
When those words were spoken, Little White was a bit confused, but Yu Yanluo looked at the two of them with a strange expression.
Zu An was speechless.
This little fiend is completely different from young human ladies, as expected.
Zu An quickly took out a pile of defensive magical treasures to give to their group, saying, Even though Ive already cleaned out the monsters along the way, take these with you just in case.
Please dont continue that topic! I dont want to be treated as a pervert!
