I Have A Qi Fortune Altar-Chapter 1521 - 731: Now, Who Holds the Advantage? (Part 2)
"I see, but this is no matter, both I and Nangong Lie have achieved our goals. Peilu, you... did well."
Then, Chen Yuan paused for a moment, seemingly sensing something, and said with a smile:
"Look, here he comes!"
As Chen Yuan’s words fell, an overwhelming energy surged from all directions, and in the void, beams of light spread out, directly sealing a space of several dozen miles.
At the same time, endless dark clouds began to gather near East Mountain Valley.
A voice of heavy majesty resounded between heaven and earth.
"Chen Yuan, since you’ve come to South State, how could this lord, the host, not welcome you? Haha... Or do you think my hospitality is lacking?"
In the void, a middle-aged man in a Flood Dragon robe slowly appeared between heaven and earth, his immense energy fully displayed at this moment.
Then, beside Nangong Lie, five more figures appeared, most of whom Chen Yuan found very familiar.
None other than those who had caused chaos at Shushan and then fled.
The Back Mountain Ape of the Hun Tian God Ape clan, the strongman of the Heavenly Blue Demon Bull clan, the Heavenly Peng Demon Saint who had been torn by Chen Yuan, except for the Soul-devouring of the Red Nether Blood Tiger clan, the other three appeared at this moment.
In addition, there were two others, one a middle-aged woman in a black long dress, resembling the Nine Spider Demon Saint Chen Yuan had slain, being her elder sister.
The other, dressed in Mysterious Armor and holding a long spear, was Nangong Lie’s adopted son and shadow, never having appeared in the eyes of the world.
He was an arm!
Counting Nangong Lie himself, a total of six Yang God True Monarch level experts appeared here, blocking all the roads between heaven and earth.
Next, roars suddenly erupted outside East Mountain Valley, and tens of thousands of elite Zhen Nan soldiers appeared simultaneously from the four directions.
Divided into four divisions, each totaling fifty thousand, cultivated with great effort by Nangong Lie, no less than the Central Plains elite of the Beiliang Army.
Nearly able to match two Yang God Realm level True Monarchs!
Even stronger than the three hundred thousand Forbidden Army positioned by Jingtai at Purple Gold Mountain back then.
Flags fluttered, cold winds howled.
After the Zhen Nan soldiers roared, there was silence, only the heavy breathing of their war horses beneath them, some of which had mutated, with even larger bodies.
Stronger than the finest warhorses of the Northern Border.
Bred by Nangong Lie himself, these exotic war horses were a crossbreed with the demon clan’s exotic beasts, more terrifying, more powerful, and they were all armored, etched with formations, exuding immensely powerful auras, making the battle formation even more terrifying.
Yet the more this was the case, the paler Chen Peilu’s face became, because this was almost half of Prince Zhen Nan’s strength, if lost here today, there would be no chance to vie for dominion over the world again!
He... was at fault!
But at this moment, he was suppressed by Chen Yuan, unable to move at all.
"Chen Yuan, you dare kill my sister of the Nine Spiders, today, you will pay with your life!" the middle-aged woman shouted fiercely at Chen Yuan.
"Chen Yuan, the grievances of the past should be settled today!"
The Heavenly Peng Demon Saint snorted coldly, his eyes filled with blood-red anger.
The arm that Chen Yuan had torn nearly brought him to the brink of ruin, recovering only after a long period of recuperation, and using much of the Heavenly Peng clan’s resources.
These grudges, these accounts, should all be settled!
"Hahaha, Chen Yuan, what other tricks do you have? ’Unique in a thousand years,’ today, you will surely fall beneath my iron fist!" Tong Bei Demon Saint was full of confidence.
Not only him, but indeed they all were very confident!
But besides Chen Peilu, no one noticed that even after Nangong Lie and others appeared, Chen Yuan showed no panic, nor did his soldiers.
Instead, they quickly gathered into a battle formation.
Originally, Zhu Huai, who might have panicked, was not to be trusted, and who had no idea what was happening, was now also full of confidence under Chen Yuan’s earlier words.
The master had long planned!
"The world is yet undecided; when did South State become your territory, Nangong Lie?" Chen Yuan stood calmly with his hands behind his back, not at all shocked by Nangong Lie’s appearance.
But looking at Chen Yuan’s expression, Nangong Lie felt a vague sense of unease. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Yet he quickly dispelled these thoughts, convinced that Chen Yuan’s calmness was merely a bluff, it must be!!!
This time, Nangong Lie had six True Monarch level experts, and two hundred thousand elite heavy armored cavalry ready at any time, far surpassing Chen Yuan’s current forces.
No matter how you look at it, two hundred thousand to less than a hundred thousand, six True Monarch Demon Saints against four Demon Saint experts.
He had the advantage!
How could he lose?
Huh?
How could he lose!
Nangong Lie kept reminding himself to banish any fear towards Chen Yuan, since the advantage lay with him, why fear a mere Chen Yuan?
"Since the fall of the former Chu, the establishment of Great Jin, I have guarded the border in South State for the Central Plains, this is a great merit for the human race, South State is even my fiefdom.
Why can’t I be considered the host?"
Nangong Lie retorted.
But Chen Yuan placed his hand on Chen Peilu’s head, pressing it lightly, turning him directly into nihility, like some fragments, drifting between heaven and earth.
Nangong Lie didn’t even glance at him.
He was merely a pawn, and now that his mission was complete, whether he lived or died didn’t matter, his followers were many and wouldn’t miss a mere Heavenly Core Master.
"You are but a traitorous dog to the human race, what face do you have to call yourself a meritorious subject? Colluding with the Southern Border demon clan, devoid of conscience...
Nangong Lie, you... deserve to die!"
Chen Yuan’s gaze sharpened, rebuking.
"Hahaha, do you think this is like sentencing Jingtai? Think that judging this lord will grant you victory? Now, you are already but dry bones in a tomb.
This lord knows that Heavenly Sword True Monarch Jiang He and Netherworld Prison True Monarch Chu Changfeng are in East Mountain Valley, but... so what? Do you think you can destroy East Mountain Valley and then annihilate this lord.
That’s just wishful thinking, bringing you here today, is to make this East Mountain Valley your grave, letting you, the human True Monarch famed throughout the world, fall here.
Since killing Jingtai, you’ve become the most renowned figure in the world, but precisely because of this, you’ve fulfilled your mission, and now you should die!"
Nangong Lie snorted coldly, thinking he had revealed Chen Yuan’s trump card.
But Chen Yuan remained unperturbed, naturally thinking about it would make one realize, he couldn’t have come to South State with just Zhu Huai, who had just entered the Yang God Realm; there must be others.
And while Chen Yuan was hidden, he deliberately revealed himself to Chen Peilu, passing the message to Nangong Lie, making him understand.
The advantage was his!
But... the truth was different.
"Seems you know quite a lot, but... did you ever consider that while you were luring me into East Mountain Valley, I was guiding you here?"
Chen Yuan laughed heartily, his laughter shaking the heavens.
"What did you say?!"
Nangong Lie and those around him all changed their expressions dramatically.
The next moment, a blinding blood light erupted from the ground, shooting skyward, causing the earth to shake, and massive cracks appeared.
A gigantic turtle poked out its head, with Zhao Danqing standing on its back, hands behind his back, with a faint smile.
On the left, dressed in white, Jiang He, clad in battle armor with a Divine Spear in hand, and Chu Changfeng slowly appeared, while on the right, Xu Yan Monk joined his hands, chanting Buddha’s name.
Behind them, the Immortal Sword’s clang echoed to the sky, slicing open the void, Shushan Sect Leader Ling Xu Daoist held the Slaughter Immortal Sword, staring icily at the Demon Saints.
In front, Shushan Qing Xu Daoist stood with his sword, vigilant towards the opposite side.
In all directions, Nangong Lie and his group were instantly surrounded.
Between heaven and earth, a profound silence reigned.
Chen Yuan’s lips curled into a smile, as he took step after step into the void, looking Nangong Lie in the eye, he said calmly:
"Now, who holds the advantage?!"
