The Last Primal

Chapter 999 999 - A Peach Tree

?

How difficult would it be for someone to declare such an outrageous claim?

Throughout history, there have been countless storms and yet, the only ones that were passed down in the world were the so-called righteous, evil, or demonic, and the religious teachings.

How difficult would it be for someone to alter the fate of all living beings?

Even with Number 13's means, she could only change the fate of Aiden alone with the help of a sacred item like the Saraca Flower.

Anyone else wouldn't even dare to dream of something as such!

Prior to this, the greatest goal in Aiden's martial art was to head to another world and follow in Number 13's footsteps.

And yet…

The twilight and the hellish scene of the Northern Countries had given him a tremendous trigger.

It was a sort of helplessness that brought forth indignance in Aiden's heart!

Was that this world's mortal's fate?

Were those the fates of the living beings?

Why?

"I want to establish my own course!"

Aiden had laid down a great vow!

His vow was eternal and had an immortal legacy.

There were many legends about it in the later generations.

However, it was rare for them to imagine that the fates of all living beings would start to change right from this dilapidated ancient city with a single old man in his twilight years as witness!

It was nearing the end of autumn right now and the weather had turned frosty.

The old captain stood in the chilling gust and his frail body swayed slightly. However, he had no intention of leaving.

Finally, he turned around when night fell. "Let's go."

The moment the old man turned around, Aiden discovered that his dear friend of his seemed to have aged considerably overnight.

Those hazy eyes no longer had any fluctuation within them.

They were still as an ancient well.

For the past many years, the old man had been waiting every single moment for this day to arrive.

Right now, he no longer had any regrets.

Aiden supported the old man to the carriage and they continued ahead.

…

Although the two of them remained in the carriage, they caught wind of quite a bit of news throughout the way.

In the past two years…

The Empress of Great North led the army personally to defend the borders. She devised strategies and managed to defend against the attacks of the allied army of the three dynasties countless times with the terrain advantage. However, as time passed by, the situation turned increasingly difficult for her.

A month ago, the Empress of Great North was injured and nearly died.

More than 500 kilometers around the borders fell in defeat!

The might of the allied army was unstoppable and they infiltrated forcefully up North. Just like that, they overtook quite a number of vassal states within the territories of Great North.

The Great North army of martial artists escaped while protecting the Empress of Great North the entire way. They were forced back to the North of the Iron Mountain Range and to the nearby city, almost forced to give up the whole countryside as well.

The situation of Great North was extremely treacherous right now!

Somewhere else near a small town.

Upon arriving, Aiden released the Purple Flame Bird. He put away the carriage and supported the old captain to the ground.

The leaves of autumn fell and the place was in chaos.

The streets of the small town were desolate.

Although it was daytime, there were not many people on the streets, and doors on either side were tightly shut as well.

Before long, the allied army of the three dynasties would cross the Iron Mountain Range and invade this place.

There were not many people remaining in this small town by now; they were mostly old, weak, women, children, or people who were extremely sentimental about the place.

Aiden supported the old man back to his mansion.

Pushing the door open to enter, the peach blossom tree was still present.

Everything was the same as before.

The captain said, "Let's stay outside, looking at the skies and the world to the end."

"Alright."

Aiden returned to the living room and moved a bench outside. He helped the old man to lean on it before taking some blankets over to cover the latter.

He headed to the backyard and got some bricks and mud.

Before long, he set up two small furnaces in the courtyard beside the old man and lit some firewood in flames.

Even after many years, his skills in doing so were not rusty.

Aiden sat at the side and gazed at the burning flames of the furnace in a daze.

A long time later, the old man suddenly said, "Aiden, I'm already someone that's about to die. Don't stay here to accompany me, go on."

Aiden lowered his head and did not speak.I think you should take a look at

Still, the old man said, "The young miss is injured and I know you're worried. She's definitely not in a good state right now. Go take a look and help her out."

"She'll be fine,"

Aiden replied, "As the empress, news would definitely spread a long time ago if anything happened to her."

The old man shook his head and sighed internally.

He could tell that despite Aiden's remark, the latter could not conceal the worry deep in his eyes.

"Brother, don't worry. We don't have to worry about such stuff,"

Aiden pinched the end of the old man's blanket and said softly.

The old man nodded with heavy eyelids.

The journey from the capital of Great North to this small town was long and even someone who was fit would feel fatigued, let alone an old man at the end of his road.

Unknowingly, the old man fell asleep.

Aiden sat in the courtyard and gazed at the South of Iron Mountain Range. He had a cold gaze and icy expression, remaining silent.

Late at night…

The old man was already deep asleep.

Finally, Aiden rose slowly and sped in the direction of Iron Mountain Range!

Under the shroud of the night, Iron Mountain Range seemed extremely sinister and spooky. The shadows of trees swayed and the roars of ferocious beasts caused the mountains and earth to quake.

From time to time, ferocious birds would glide through the air.

All of a sudden!

A gray-robed figure arrived in the skies above Iron Mountain Range!

Under the cold moonlight, demonic energy shrouded that person and conjured a series of menacing ancient demons one after another!

Aiden stood in the air with his mighty figure. His black hair danced and his eyes were bloodshot, resembling a peerless demon king!

Instantly!

All the demonic beasts in Iron Mountain Range caught sight of that figure.

"Roar!"

Aiden opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar into the valley beneath him!

The weather changed!

From Aiden, all the demon beasts sensed a trepidating aura.

It was a fear that stemmed from deep in their bloodline!

A new 'king' was born in Iron Mountain Range!

All the spirit beasts and most of the spirit demons knelt on the ground in dead silence.

However, there were still some demon beasts that glared menacingly with malevolent auras.

"Howl!"

The overlord of Iron Mountain Range, the alpha gray wolf, reared its head into the skies and howled.

The wolves got up one after another and responded in kind!

Their howls spread through the entire place!

Aiden flew through the air silently and arrived before the alpha. Reaching out, he pushed down against the head of the alpha with his massive palm!

The alpha opened its blood-filled mouth and chomped down savagely on Aiden's wrist!

The flesh on Aiden's arm expanded and his tendons pulsated!

His entire arm seemed to be made of steel!

The alpha not only failed to bite completely, he nearly broke his own fangs!

Bang!

A single round.

The alpha was murdered by Aiden in a single round and its body split into pieces!

At the same time, a Martial Master realm Silvermoon Lion lunged over from behind. With the cover of the moonlight, the Silvermoon Lion's body was almost invisible!

As though he had eyes behind his back, Aiden threw a punch in reverse without even turning back!

Boom!

The Silvermoon Lion was killed by Aiden with a punch as well!

Fresh blood splattered.

Two ancient remnant beasts could not even withstand a single punch from Aiden!

"Roar!"

Drenched in blood, Aiden looked down at the entire valley and howled once more.

No other demon beast dared to make a sound.

Complete silence blanketed the mountain ranges and swamps!
