Chapter 147 - Meng Chuans Rescue (2/2)

Inside their manor, Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were sleeping soundly on the bed. The white jade token placed under his pillow suddenly turned red-hot. Meng Chuan had already refined it with his Quintessential Essence; thus, he could sense the changes in the token immediately.

Oh? Meng Chuan—who had been sleeping—suddenly opened his eyes. He sat up and retrieved the white jade token from under his pillow. His Patroller token was very important. Whenever he slept, he would place it underneath his pillow. He always carried it with him, never separating from his body when he was awake.

Green Mountain Prefecture? Meng Chuan glanced at the map of the eighteen prefectures on the white jade token. The location where Green Mountain Prefecture City stood glowed red—it was the source of the current heat coming from the token.

Liu Qiyue woke up, and curiously asked, “Why are you up?”

“Green Mountain Prefecture needs help. I’ll be back very soon.” Meng Chuan glanced at Liu Qiyue and instantly put on his boots, taking his saber and robe with him. The windows to the room automatically opened, and with a whoosh, he transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew out the window.

Liu Qiyue sat up and looked out the window. She saw the bolt of lightning streak across the sky and quickly disappear into the night sky.

Ah Chuan has gone to rescue others? Liu Qiyue sat on the bed. She had known about Meng Chuan’s extra duties, but it had been over half a year since they had come to North River Pass, and this was the first time Meng Chuan had gone to rescue a prefecture.

I hope he can make it in time and save more people. I hope Ah Chuan returns safely too. Liu Qiyue looked at the crescent moon outside the window and prayed silently.

Meng Chuan was rushing towards the battlefield. Currently, she could only pray for blessings. She couldn’t go with him.

Reinforcements needed to arrive as soon as possible! Bringing Liu Qiyue along would reduce Meng Chuan’s speed by 40 percent. It would take him longer to arrive.

…

Green Mountain Prefecture City’s north city wall.

The six demon monarchs were the first to arrive. They were faster than Wang Fucheng and Hu Xiao—who were rushing to the wall from the center of the city. Jadesun Palace was located nine kilometers away from the north city wall. The demons only needed to travel three kilometers.

Boom!

The six demon monarchs moved across the city wall and headed straight for the two Godfiends that hadn’t hidden their auras.

The demon monarchs also released their demonic powers. A gray fog spread 1000 feet around them. Dozens of patrolling soldiers on the city wall—which spanned more than 1000 feet—turned into pools of blood, dying on the spot. Following that, the demon monarchs entered the city and casually destroyed the buildings. People in the vicinity died immediately.

When the other soldiers saw this scene from afar, they could only hold in their grief. They knew the difference in strength between mortals and demon monarchs was too great! These demon monarchs were killing humans as if they were stepping on ants. They hadn’t started the true massacre yet.

“We still have Godfiends.” The soldiers continued staring into the distance. They could already feel the ground trembling.

“The demon army!” The soldiers saw an incoming army.

A blinding flame lit up on the city walls, illuminating the surrounding area. They could barely see the horde of demons charging towards them from the dark mountains. The demons at the forefront were extremely fast—so fast that their figures blurred as they rushed over.

“They’re here. The demons are here.” These soldiers knew that they had to risk their lives for the entire city behind them.

…

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, crossing three mountain peaks. He used each mountain peak as a platform as he leaped towards Green Mountain Prefecture.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Lightning erupted from Meng Chuan’s body as he rushed towards the prefecture.

A typical Great Solar Godfiend with a perfected Lightning Devastator Fiend Body could move with speeds that matched a Regis Godfiend’s. They could leap a distance of one kilometer each time! However, after Meng Chuan became a Great Solar Godfiend, the lightning within his body became even stronger. His Godfiend Body had been forged using nine bolts of heavenly lightning—beyond the usual amount needed—and he had attained the Diamond Body, which allowed his meridians to withstand greater bursts of Quintessential Essence. With all this, he could travel 1.5 kilometers in a single leap.

This speed was considered rather fast among Regis Godfiends.

Quick, quick. Faster. Meng Chuan frantically rushed towards Green Mountain Prefecture City. It took him over ten leaps to cross the mountain range.

Meng Chuan quickly passed the 2.5 kilometer-wide Muma river—the raging Muma river is the largest in the Yuan State.

Swoosh.

In midair, he used the Swallow Stance once, flashing across the entire Muma River. With another two flashes, he disappeared into the horizon.

Currently, Meng Chuan was as fast as lightning. He was charging towards Green Mountain Prefecture City at an astonishing speed!
