Chapter 1359 Shameless Villain

The earth shook, and the sound of footsteps reverberated from behind the massive stone.

When Darren released his god's sense, he detected that countless skeleton soldiers were on the other side of the enormous stone.

"Sir, what are those skeleton soldiers? Are they an Archean race?" Darren asked.

"No." The Primitive Emperor shook his head before continuing, "There was no such Archean race. I guess some master created them for war. They have been rotting for so long that I don't believe they will have much strength."

"Well, they do seem weaker than cultivators at the low-level of the Celestial God Realm. However, what they lack in terms of strength, they make up for in number." Darren agreed with a nod.

"Don't worry. I'll take care of them," replied the Primitive Emperor. Now that he had returned to his hometown, there was a continuous flow of Archean godly energy for him to control. Thus, it would not be hard for him to deal with all these skeletons.

"Hold on, sir." Surprisingly enough, Darren stopped him.

"What's wrong, Darren? If I don't kill them, you may be in danger, along with all the people outside. They may be killed or severely injured," the Primitive Emperor frowned as he asked. He couldn't fathom why Darren would stop him.

The expression on Darren's face darkened as he sent a piece of his memory to the Primitive Emperor. It showed him the incident that happened when Darren wanted to borrow elixirs.

"Humph!"

A snort escaped the Primitive Emperor when he learned the reason for Darren's annoyance.

"How could these people be so cold and shameless?"

It wouldn't have hurt those people to help out. On the contrary, assisting Darren would have been as easy as lifting a finger! But they chose to be silent and pretended to heal their wounds instead.

Since they turned a blind eye to his plight, Darren wasn't inclined to protect them.

"Let's go and see."

Darren and the Primitive Emperor flew to the other side of the stone. Since Finley and the others were still recovering, the Primitive Emperor released a streak of god's power to protect them.

On the other side of the stone, the skeletons were approaching the group of humans. While there were thousands of skeletons, there were only dozens of human talents.

The cultivators panicked. The last time they encountered a dangerous situation, there had only been a few hundred skeletons. At that time, they had tried to flee, and over ten cultivators had died. This time, they were faced with a significantly larger army of skeletons. Fear and horror reflected on their faces as they wondered how they would deal with the situation. Since there were over a thousand skeletons in this group, they knew that they would be challenged when resisting.

"What should we do?"

They huddled closer in the corner and whispered to one another.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Several skeletons suddenly rushed over, while the others stopped about a thousand feet away. They would be part of the second wave of attacks on these humans.

Soon, t

he couldn't stand it. He hated these people who only cared about themselves. Not only had they ignored Darren when he begged for help, but they had also selfishly clung to the elixirs that he desperately needed. And now, when Darren was behaving with them the way they had acted with him, they were making false countercharges.

Eallard Liu had intended to beseech the Primitive Emperor to help them despite their actions earlier. Now it seemed that there was no such need. They deserved death.

"Kill!"

The skeletons charged. The panicked cultivators summoned their skills and courage and turned to face their opponents. Both sides collided with each other fiercely.

Dust billowed, and the ground trembled. God's power was everywhere!

The two sides fought fiercely.

Six hours passed, and over ten cultivators had been killed. Of course, the skeletons also suffered significant losses.

The fight lasted for three days and three nights.

On the human side, half of the cultivators had lost their lives. But, all the skeletons had been annihilated. After all, these skeletons had already decayed, and their strength was not comparable to that of the real Celestial God Realm masters.

The cultivators who survived were severely injured—some had broken arms or legs, and blood gushed from every wound. They looked extremely miserable.

Darren, the Primitive Emperor, and Eallard Liu watched the entire battle from inside the barrier's safety. Later, when Finley and the others woke, they joined them behind the shield.

After everything settled, a young cultivator, who held a blood-stained spear, limped toward the barrier.

"See? We killed all the skeletons even without your help!

Do you still remember what we said before the fight began? If any of us survives, we will consider you to be our enemy for life! You shameless rat! You've brought disgrace to the entire human race!"

he bellowed arrogantly. After all, he had just defeated enemy troops despite being part of a force that was inferior in number.
