Chapter 219 - Elder Ming Arrives

Chapter 219 - Elder Ming Arrives

Jiu Shen calmly watched the two opposing sides as they clashed with fierce momentum. Although the Undying Corpse Sect and the Xue Family were outnumbered, they had their corpse puppets which greatly reduced the difference in numbers. Besides, the corpse puppet didn’t fear getting injured or killed, making them a very fearsome opponent on the battlefield. Even the Embroidered Dragon Guards did not dare fight these corpse puppets carelessly.

On the other hand, Emperor Elyk and his father were facing Xue Yangkai, Xue Yangkun, and also both men’s corpse puppets. The father and son pair was able to hold on despite the numerical disadvantage they were facing. Not to mention that their enemies were all at the 9th-rank Saint!

It was already a very surprising matter for the father and son duo to survive up until now.

Looking at this, Jiu Shen sighed regretfully. He initially planned to let his subordinates fight with the Undying Corpse Sect and the Xue Family for them to gain battle experience and also increase their Sword Comprehension. However, it seemed like this plan was now foiled.

The Xue Family’s strength was too much for them to handle and perhaps, only Long Meili and Ice would be able to defeat them. It was because of the presence of the newly ascended Elder Ming who was now at the Nascent God Realm.

He might have used external help to achieve his breakthrough, but he was still a bonafide Nascent God Realm expert and someone with that kind of power could fight hundreds of 9th-rank Saint alone!

"Little Tiger, you might have to fight later on." Jiu Shen muttered to the bored little girl.

Ice glanced at him with shining eyes and she clenched her chubby fists while putting on a fierce look. "I want to fight! I want to fight! Meow!" She said excitedly.

She was confident about her strength and even if she fought with a Nascent God Realm expert, she was certain that she would be able to defeat them if she uses her true body. It must be noted that this little girl was merely disguised as a fat white cat. She is a true god beast progeny, a Glacial Sovereign Tiger! One of the most feared existences in the Primordial God Realm!

Loud battle cries rang out as the two sides battled violently. The sounds of multiple weapons colliding echoed throughout the entirety of the venue. Many soldiers from both sides had already fallen, but they continued their fight.

It was a cruel sight, but this was the fate of any soldier. They fight for their people and their country even if it means death.

Jiu Shen could only sigh at the sight of this, but this was part of their fate.

Another hour passed by and more people from both sides died from battle. The ground was already painted red as blood flowed unceasingly.

Suddenly, Ice who was still shaking from excitement glanced in a certain direction with narrowed eyes. "Stinky human, is that the person that you were talking about earlier?" She asked.

Jiu Shen did not even need to use his spiritual perception to know who she was talking about. He nodded his head at her and replied. "Mn. That man should be Elder Ming."

Ice stood up on Jiu Shen’s lap and stared carefully at the incoming figure with her enhanced vision. She was a god beast progeny, so her vision was far better than anyone in the same realm. Elder Ming was not even able to sense that he was already being monitored by a little girl.

"That man’s aura looks evil and vile. I wonder how many lives he had taken just to achieve his breakthrough?" Ice muttered solemnly as she stared at Elder Ming. Her usually childish demeanor was now replaced by a stern and grim atmosphere.

Hm?

Elder Ming who was nonchalantly walking towards their direction suddenly felt that he was being spied. He frowned and stared in the direction where he sensed the gaze.

He narrowed his eyes when he saw the familiar figure of a man with long silver hair. He saw him carrying a small little girl with a head full of short white hair. Strangely enough, the sensation that he felt earlier actually came from the little girl in Jiu Shen’s hands! Elder Ming could even see the girl smiling at him with a taunting look.

"Huh? I must be hallucinating. How could a little girl make me feel danger? It must be that Jiu Shen! Hmph!" Elder Ming snorted. He then tapped his feet on the ground as he flew through the skies at breakneck speed.

"He’s coming closer! Stinky human, release me! I want to bite that old man to death! He actually snorted at me! Meow!" Ice said angrily as she tried to escape from Jiu Shen’s grip, but she could not even move an inch no matter how she tried.

"Be patient." He muttered.

Not long later, everyone on the battlefield suddenly sensed a suffocating aura that almost made them prostrate in fear. They gaze at the skies and saw the figure of a middle-aged man who looked rather ordinary, but they could somehow feel a trace of profundity in his eyes.

The fierce fight between the two sides abruptly stopped upon his arrival.

"Who is that guy? Is he also someone from the Undying Corpse Sect?"

"If he’s capable of flight, then he should be someone who is at least at the 8th-rank Divine realm! We’re finished!"

"It looks like we’re going to die this time..."

Elder Ming put on an amiable expression as he surveyed the entire battlefield. He then frowned when he saw that both the emperor and his father were still alive and kicking!

Seeing his darkening expression, Xue Yangkai and Xue Yangkun cursed in their hearts: Oh shit!

Elder Ming slowly descended from the skies and ignored everyone else. His gaze was glued on the figure of a man carrying a little girl in his embrace. He then started talking with a smile. "This gentleman must Wine Master Jiu. It is a pleasure to meet you."

Jiu Shen did not even bother to reply and he merely glanced at him with a calm look.

Elder Ming’s smile froze after being disregarded in front of a large crowd. He thought that no one would ever dare disrespect him after becoming a Nascent God Realm expert, but who knew that someone with the guts of steel actually exists in the Silver Wing Empire.

"It looks like Wine Master Jiu does not want to become friends with me. Too bad. In that case, you’ll have to die today!" Elder Ming said and his gentle eyes slowly distorted and turned incredibly hideous. His aura also turned malefic and insidious!

This sudden change scared some of the people on the battlefield. Only Jiu Shen and Ice remained unperturbed upon seeing this.

"Haha! Look, that old man is funny. He looks like the clown that visited your store some time ago. Pfft!" Ice giggled as she pointed her chubby finger at Elder Ming. A mischievous smile was plastered on her lips.

Everyone sweated for the little girl. She actually dared to insult someone who was emitting such a dangerous aura!

"Oh my god! Sigh. What a pitiful child! Even if Wine Master Jiu is on her side, she would still not be safe. From how that guy looks, he seems to have a personal vendetta with Wine Master Jiu. She’s finished..."

The emperor’s subordinates muttered regretfully. They wanted to offer their help, but they could not even move under the intense pressure of Elder Ming’s aura, so they could only stare at the scene helplessly.

Elder Ming cackled with a malicious expression. It was as if he could not wait to devour Jiu Shen and the little girl in his arms.

"Jiu Shen. Jiu Shen. Jiu Shen. You almost spoiled my plans with your sudden arrival in the Silver Wing Empire. You even killed a descendant of my Xue Family. Do you think we don’t know about it? I would only be relieved if I see your corpse today. No, I will refine your corpse into my new corpse puppet! As for you little girl... I will eat your flesh... Kekeke!" Elder Ming’s voice sounded almost beast-like and his eyes revealed a tinge of crazed madness.

Jiu Shen ignored him and poked the back of Ice’s head as he said. "Little Tiger, it’s time for you to make a move. If you kill him, I’ll give you an additional bottle of milk tonight. What do you think?"

Ice’s expression brightened and she eagerly nodded her head. "Don’t take back your words or I’ll scratch your face." She said while looking at Jiu Shen.

Although the voices of the two were not that loud, everyone present on the battlefield were elite individuals, so they were able to hear their conversation loud and clear.

Elder Ming’s dark expression became even more unsightly when he heard them.

Roaaarrr!

"Go fucking die!" He shouted like a deranged beast.
