Chapter 735: Brothers in Hardship

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

Chu Fen felt shivers down his back upon hearing how he was addressed; he didn’t dare turn to face Overlord Chu. Instead, he revealed a smile uglier than his crying face.

He firmly changed the topic. In an instant, he was brimming with enthusiasm as he welcomed Yaoyao and the sagemaster.

However, Overlord Chu was quite stubborn. Seeing that Chu Feng didn’t respond, he called him brother again. He also came close to him from behind. This time, his speech was relatively distinct and no longer inarticulate.

Yaoyao and the sagemaster heard and watched it clearly!

Yaoyao’s whole body was lustrous and shining. Her beauty was unreal and calling her a fairy wasn’t enough to describe her grace. She was truly exceptionally charming, and her allure topped the entire world.

In the ancient periods, she was number one throughout the starry skies. She was gifted not only with talent and power, but also appearance, and so she was the number one beauty during that time.

Many years had passed and she was still magnificently beautiful with her black curved brows and limpid eyes. Her beauty was not native. Now, she was smiling with her red lips and pearly white teeth while staring at Chu Feng with her pretty eyes!

“Yaoyao, I’ve missed you so much. It’s been so long and I’ve been very worried!” Chu Feng was staking everything at this moment. He was thick-skinned and incomparably corny as he approached her.

This was because the current situation was simply inexplicable. After all, Overlord Chu’s brain wasn’t too effective and he was strangely stubborn. He didn’t listen to others and was now still calling out to Chu Feng!

“Really?” Yaoyao’s gentle smile was gorgeous. Her figure was lithe and she came forth agilely, swaying like a dazzling divine lotus.

Then the corner of her mouth twitched slightly and she said, “Since that is the case, let’s go for a walk in the forests. I want to hear everything you have to say.”

Chu Feng was scared even though her big eyes were spiritual and her smile was slightly playful. She was definitely going to put him in order ruthlessly!

Chu Feng decided to change the topic again. He looked at the sagemaster and said, “Sagemaster, you are a hero in my eyes. A bright light on my path ahead, my goal is to work hard, catch up with you, and finally surpass you.”

The sagemaster was very calm. With deep eyes and silver hair as bright as snow, he was quite handsome. He smiled and nodded at Chu Feng before saying, “The old man isn’t in the right state. I should console him first so that he rests in the copper coffin!”

Clang, dong!

The bronze coffin opened. Then the sagemaster vanished from the area with Yaoyao’s grandfather and entered deep underground.

“Brother!” Overlord Chu yelled again.

This time, Chu Feng was truly almost in tears. Only him, his sworn brother, and Yaoyao were left now. What was he going to do now that the sagemaster, someone who was so good-tempered, was temporarily gone?

“Yaoyao, there’s been a misunderstanding!” He hurriedly explained.

“Go. Tell me over there!” Yaoyao’s translucent hand patted his shoulder very naturally. There was a burst of divine radiance and she quickly departed taking him with her.

“Brother, no, old man, save me!” Chu Feng yelled at Overlord Chu.

Overlord Chu was instantly dumbstruck and stood on the spot. His head was tilted as he pondered for a while, looking at the view of Yaoyao’s back with an absent-minded expression.

This led to Chu Feng disappearing with a shriek as Overlord Chu didn’t react or stop her.

Soon afterward, there was thunder and lightning in the depths of the mountainous forest. Thunder shook the rear of the mountain, and Chu Feng didn’t reemerge for a long time. There was a lot of activity in the area.

At Mount Eternal by the Eastern Sea, a group of great demons, who were incomparably excited, set off on their journey. They had contacted Chu Feng earlier to find that it was him who had let out the unrivalled supreme old man.

That’s why the group of people was coming.

With the big black yak in lead, he brought a group of brothers here on a big spatial ship to find his friend. They wanted to celebrate this great victory.

As they rushed here they happen to see Overlord standing here all on his own. He looked like he was in deep thought and reminiscing.

The big black yak had good eyes and could see him from afar. At once, he was ecstatic and said, “Without saying, that must be our sworn brother!”

He jumped off the battleship. He straightened out his black suit and sorted out his swept-back hairstyle. He took large strides and rushed over. With matchless passion, he said, “Brother!”

Although the big black yak was in human form, he had kept the pair of his big horns this time. He was now swaying his head, unbearably enthusiastic as he introduced himself.

“Brother, I’ve come to see you!”

Then the big group of great demons behind him, which included the Manchurian Tiger, the old donkey, Ouyang Feng, Zhou Quan, and the Horse King, also addressed him as brother.

They were almost dressed like each other. Apart from Yellow Ox, the others were all wearing black suits and shiny black shoes. Of course, to show their manners, they took off their black sunglasses and had no cigars in their mouths.

The whole criminal syndicate gang called out brother in a low voice in a uniform manner.

Overlord Chu lifted his head, stupefied. Had it been before when his mind wasn’t clear, he would’ve probably swatted them with his palm and beaten them to a pulp.

But lately, he was slowly regaining wisdom and could even recall some things from the past. Therefore, he wasn’t as irritable.

He was slightly confused and stared blankly at them.

“Brother, I am your third younger brother. My name is Demon King Ox!” The big black yak introduced himself. Originally, he was older than Chu Feng, but he hated being called the second brother. He didn’t want to be second, so he wormed his way into being third.

The Manchurian Tiger came forth, too, and said, “Brother, I am your fourth younger brother. My nickname is Siberian, my main name is Manchurian!”

“Hee-haw, hee-haw...” The old donkey opened his mouth. He started calling out but, before he could speak, instantly took a couple of hooves, such as cow hooves, bear paws, and horse kicks.

He quickly exposed his big teeth and changed his remark. He said, “Brother, I am your fifth younger brother and my name is Lu Feiyang. I’m four hundred and one years old and you can call me old Lu.”

“Brother, my name is...”

The group of great demons came forth, and the band of followers also greeted him. They were lively as they bustled around Overlord Chu as a group, encircling with him in the center.

Only the Ouyang Toad was giving off an icy aura. He fell back quietly because he had caught sight of Yaoyao!

That sister was gracefully walking out of the forest. This intimidated Ouyang Feng so much that he straightened his neck. Just then, he too gathered over and wanted to greet his brother too.

But he realized that even though this old man was just a reincarnation born from a drop of blood, his origins were still terrifying and he shouldn’t address him carelessly.

Ouyang Feng’s background could be traced down through hints. It was very possible he was from Yaoyao’s family and he could be related to the supreme divine beasts they kept. He wouldn’t dare illicitly call him his relative!

At this moment Yaoyao came over, stepping on the leaves like a fairy.

“Princess... Yao!” The big black yak and the others shivered when they saw Yaoyao. They stood perfectly upright before goosebumps covered their entire bodies.

They also caught sight of Chu Feng. They noticed his clothes were rugged, and his appearance was messy. It was rather fishy.

Quickly, they changed the topic as they sensed the situation was far from good!

“Brother Chu Feng, what’s with you? How come you’re badly battered? There’s also expanses of scorched and black areas. Have you been struck with thunder?”

“Brother, I’m not scolding you, but if you bluff every day, you’ll definitely be struck by lightning and thunder. This definitely came true!”

The bunch of old brothers deliberately made fun of him. They wanted to use Chu Feng as a shield.

Yet this time, Chu Feng turned and left. He wasn’t going to help them and take the blame.

“I have matters. You guys chat at leisure, I’m going to find the sagemaster. ” Without turning, back Chu Feng dashed into the underground.

Then the people here quivered. There was a bang and everyone started running off in all directions. They were ready to charge out of Mount Zhijin and escape back to the Eastern Sea.

But the next moment, there were rolls of thunder and flashes of lightning here. Gales began abruptly and thunder boomed throughout. The great demons wailed like ghosts and howled like wolves. Their cries were mournful as they emitted black smoke. The striking made them weep loudly and their bodies shook in disorder. They laid strewn all over the area looking miserable.

Yellow Ox was also lying on the ground, groaning. In fact, he was considered rather quiet. He hadn’t gone over to greet Overlord Chu just then but was still struck with thunder.

As for Ouyang Feng, he was feeling extremely wronged. He shrieked, “Sister, goddess, this doesn’t have anything to do with me. I didn’t illicitly call him my relative. You are my own sister by blood. Strike those bastards dead, I’ll keep watch for you. Don’t... don’t strike me!”

It was better when he wasn’t calling. As he called out, he received more bolts of lightning. Green smoke came out from his ears and eyes as lightning spewed from his mouth.

The old llama also felt injustice, like his disciple the Horse King. Their bald heads were black from the strikes, and they laid there sprawled out on their backs.

Still the old grandmaster of Wudang, who was in charge of defending the Immortal Islands, hadn’t come, otherwise, he wouldn’t have escaped the lightning strikes, either.

After who knows how long had passed, Chu Feng came out from the little world in the depths of the Earth’s core with the sagemaster. He caught sight of the great demons on the ground, groaning as they were nearly cooked alive.

The corner of Chu Feng’s mouth twitched. He had hidden in the underground just then with the spirit of you die I’ll survive. Upon seeing this sight when he came back, he was silent in tribute toward them.

“Chu Fung, you bastard, he basically wants to kill us all, ah!” The toad laid there with electricity running through him still. He spasmed continuously with arc after arc of electricity.

Even Yellow Ox received preferential treatment. After a couple of strikes, Yaoyao beckoned and drew him to her side. He wasn’t muddled from the lightning.

Chu Feng put on an act and said, “What a scandal! Stand up, the battle isn’t over yet!”

Immediately, the group of people called it quits. The big black yak shouted, “Brother you’re really not tasteful. You didn’t give us a warning!”

The old donkey was even more indignant and said, “Princess Yao, Chu Feng was beaten embarrassingly but how come we were almost cooked from the lightning? It’s not fair!”

Chu Feng wanted to cross over and beat the old donkey up viciously. How dare he try and take him down under again?

Ouyang Feng spouted electric arcs from his mouth and nose, and said, “Yes, yes, it was Chu Feng who called us here. He told us before that we must be educated and polite to call the old man our brother!”

Chu Feng’s eyes twitched. He stamped on Ouyang Feng’s mouth and said, “Shut up. Do you guys know what I’ve gone through just then? I almost experienced a full lightning tribulation? I went through a most profound ‘reflection’ and I had to eat a Six Paths of Reincarnation Pill for recovery!”

Everyone was at once shocked when they heard this and showed expressions of sympathy.

The sagemaster began to speak and said,” What Chu Feng said is correct. Indeed the battle isn’t over, and I think they’ll be back again. They must be surveying from outside of the Earth with unresignation in their hearts. But either way this time, they’ll be rather painful and the ranks of some communities will definitely fall!”

His silvery hair was like snow as he smiled weakly and said, “Very well, we’ll draw them in so to make it easier for Chang Ming and the others to attack.”

Him mentioning Uncle Ming made it clear that he had interacted with Uncle Ming prior to coming here!

At this time, Uncle Ming was opening up another battlefield. He was operating wantonly with a group of individuals who had escaped out of the universe’s dark prison, dividing them into several groups to form rebel bands throughout the universe. Attacking separately, they pounced dashed to the strongest groups’ important grounds!

These people came from great origins and were old saints who had previously ran into misfortunes. Many were truly ferocious fellows and held great resentment from being imprisoned for so many years. Now, they were maddened and their destructive power was terrifying!

Meanwhile, before their operation, they had also recruited some terrible exiles. They hadn’t told them what they were going to do and had only mentioned there was a big business. The exiles were shocked after the real operation, but these people were even more cruel. Usually, they dealt with profitless businesses, so now that there was someone leading the way and the returns could be shocking, they were each like wolves and tigers as they charged ahead!

“Dammit, charge in and scramble! In any case, their heaven illuminator experts aren’t home and came out in full strength, running to surround the Earth. We’ll loot them thoroughly, and then burn their old homes!”

“The Deity Race have several direct descendents who’re no weaker than their divine son. Kill them for me! Dammit, back then, those people even tried to take my grandchild to be their slave and threatened to kill them if they didn’t obey. Today, I’ll destroy them!”

“Go, kill them! Take their lives while it’s chaotic! Who’s coming with me to the Spirit Race? I heard they have divine medicines there, so let’s pick their medicine farms completely!”

“Old brother, is anyone going to the Xilin clan? There are some gems and divine trees there, but it’s possible the number nine from the starry skies back then, Wei Heng, is keeping watch there. Do we have any top-notch saints here to keep Wei Heng off? This time, as Wei Xilin, the Xilin clan’s clan master, has just died, we can eliminate the clan and seize all their fortunes!”

In the eyes of some, the Deity race and the Netherworld race have profound foundations and could only be attacked sneakily. After beating them and snatching things, they needed to set fires and run as the water was too deep there.

But Xilin clan was simply a big gold mine. Wei Xilin had just died in battle, so they probably didn’t have any supreme clan-guarding weapons. Taking the advantage that the other veteran races hadn’t yet reacted and came forth, they would ransack and take everything here before anyone else.

Of course, this was on the premise that someone could deal with Wei Heng, the number nine within the starry skies.

“Don’t worry, I reckon Wei Heng has probably run away ahead of time, afraid that the sagemaster will look for him to settle accounts. Let’s charge!”

“Everyone, group up. Our group will go to the Machine Race. Legend has it there’s a divine pool there and the Divine Immortal Fluid there can help people perfect an Immortal Vajra body, which is unaffected by evils. Go!”

In the depths of the universe, there was chaos as they rose from the dark. Some veteran saints and exiles were taking action with many rising up through witchcraft!
