Chapter 236: 236. Everyone is Here (III)

An immense surge of spiritual energy, even greater than the eight Spirit Lord beasts combined, erupted over the eastern side of the city. The level of power was unmistakable, it belonged to a Spirit King! Only it wasn’t only one!

The attack that followed was two-pronged, with one launched from directly above and one from the east beyond the horizon.

One attack belonged to a giant shadow of a man glowing brilliant gold. He was an armored deity twenty meters tall, wielding twin axes that seemed to cleave apart the sky. He descended from the heavens like a falling star, directly at Queen Sundew who was caught unprepared.

The mantis queen rapidly descended as well and retreated towards the east, in the direction of her lands, but that way was cut off. The second attack that came from behind belonged to a gorgeous half-naked goddess surrounded by a cloud of lotus petals. The air all around for ten kilometers calmed down and it was as if the battle suddenly was no more and everyone stopped fighting.

Queen Sundew could not completely resist this mental attack and its movements became sluggish. It could not dodge the golden avatar’s attack and could only brace for impact.

Boom! Boom!

Twin axes slammed into insect carapace, completely shattering two out of six limbs.

The mantis queen shrieked in agony and retreated southward, towards the toad king and its subordinates. The golden warrior gave chase but before he could launch another attack, a huge lion paw swiped down from the sky. He Zicheng had joined the battle and the protective formation was abandoned and receding fast. He didn’t want to lose this opportunity and sought to crush the oversized bug.

“Ahhhhh!”

With two claws gone, Queen Sundew could not defend properly. The lion’s paw landed directly on its body. Its shell was smashed and green blood sprayed out everywhere from deep gouges.

“Humans!!!”

The queen’s deafening screech that followed was defiant even though it was grievously wounded.

As it continued to flee, its body glowed a brilliant green. The horrible injuries transformed visibly. New shells grew to replace broken ones. A new pair of claws even grew out to replace the ones that were broken.

It was not fully healed although its spiritual aura was much weaker than before. It continued to flee and by now, Qu Shen and the martial monkey along with the toad king had all joined in the battle.

“Don’t let it escape!” Immortal Solemn Duke Huang Wuji bellowed.

King Huo Tu and King Wu managed to reach Queen Sundew and flanked the mantis protectively on both sides. Together, they rapidly flew towards the east, towards the wilderness.

“After it, it’s weak now. We can kill it!” He Zicheng yelled as well.

The two lords of Beast God Sanctum joined Huang Wuji and gave chase.

“Hurry up, Gong Liyun!” Qu Shen screamed behind at the lagging goddess.

“So noisy!” Immortal Gentle Lotus Gong Liyun muttered indignantly.

She followed along but turned around briefly and made an enticing pose at the nine human Spirit Lords who were all completely astonished. She squeezed her ample breasts together, displaying her barely covered assets proudly for them to see. She even winked at them though it was unclear who she was winking to.

Chen Wentian knew exactly who she was winking to, him. He shuddered as a chill swept over his body. His balls retreated into his body and his little dragon shriveled into a tiny lizard. This old woman was dangerous as always and her interest in him was just as great as before.

“You all, don’t let the beast lieutenants escape so easily!” He Zicheng’s voice drifted back to them, “It’s nine against eight, kill at least one of them!”

“Yes, my lord!”

“Yes, lion lord!”

The eight beast lieutenants had gotten far. They were also trying to escape towards the east and stayed roughly together. Going as a pack was much safer than heading off in a direction alone. Eight Spirit Lords would barely be able to hold off a stray Spirit King that dared to look in their direction for a little while.

The nine human lieutenants gave chase, with Ji Tiangu and Gu Lan in the lead. Those two were the most energetic and their prior fatigue and desire to flee was completely gone. It was now their chance for payback and with a numerical advantage, anything was possible.

The beasts were smart but not smart enough. In their eagerness, they ran straight into the numbing domain left by Gong Liyun that dulled their minds and dimmed their souls. Although it was no longer active, the residual energy still was strong enough to affect them. It was just enough for the humans to catch up.

“Come here, you’re a big one! Moooooooo!” Ji Tiangu roared and transformed into a humanoid ox ten meters tall.

“Come here, fatty meat bag!” The giant green mantis screeched and charged.

“Haha, brother, I’ll show you my recent improvements in strength!” Gu Lan yelled and transformed into a three-meter-tall monkey with blue fur and muscular limbs.

“Come here you ape!” He yelled and tackled General Kong, the steel-furred gorilla.

One by one, the other human and beast immortals paired off and found their opponents. In the blink of an eye, Chen Wentian was the only one without anything to do.

He rolled his eyes and had a quick word with Mei Qiaofeng and Tie Buqun. He reminded them of their true goals. They were not here to kill beasts but to kill certain humans. They understood quickly and the three of them began to plan as they fought.

Now was the perfect opportunity to enact their revenge. The Spirit Kings were far away. Here in this chaotic battle with seventeen spiritual energies and seventeen immortal Daos, it was easy for accidents to occur!

Mei Qiaofeng and Tie Buqun didn’t really care who died as long as someone died. The main enemies were still He Zicheng and Qu Shen and those two were still too strong and untouchable. They also could not go for He Xinghan as it was that would cause more trouble than the man was worth.

Chen Wentian finally chose for them and settled on Ji Tiangu as the target. The man was obnoxious and a serious problem for his counterpart, He Xingping. Mei Qiaofeng and Tie Buqun agreed as they also disliked the ox man. They were never friends to begin with.

“Alright, I can do it by myself but I need you to hold some people back when I make my move.” Chen Wentian said, “I need one of you to interfere with that ugly ape Gu Lan no matter what and I also need one of you to watch for anybody else that might want to jump in and save Ji Tiangu.”

“I’ll take Gu Lan.” Tie Buqun said.

“And I’ll take the others.” Mei Qiaofeng said.

“Good. Remember, be subtle. I don’t need much. Five seconds of interference should be the most I need.” Chen Wentian said. “When he dies, we immediately run.”

“Agreed!”

“Let’s do it!”
