Chapter 988 – Gaining Prestige for Gu Family (1/2)

Gaining Prestige for Gu Family

The 14th!

Each spatial passageway in the eight major palaces opened simultaneously. The first batch of gifted disciples immediately surged into it. The higher ups had already given the orders that whoever did well in this war, whoever had the most kills would be rewarded handsomely.

This excited the geniuses who had longed for a trial even more. They had the urge to rush into the Western Domain and eradicate the entire devil army.

Jiang Chen wasn’t excluded from the group. He, Gu Shuangtan and the rest of Gu Palace’s geniuses went into the spatial passageway in Gu Palace.

Desolate Palace!

“Are you sure that brat is Jiang Chen?”

Desolate Emperor sounded grim while his eyes stared at Desolate Wuleng unblinkingly.

“I’m not too sure about it, but I sensed a familiar Qi from him the instant he appeared. It was similar to the residual Qi left by Jiang Chen in the battlefield, but because it was merely a faint trace, I wouldn’t dare confirm it.”

Desolate Wuleng shook his head.

“In any case, this brat is disastrous. Whether he is Jiang Chen or Gu Chen, we must find a way to get rid of him. Presently, the Law Enforcement Palace’s seat is occupied by Gu Firmament. What you did just now was too reckless, but an opportunity has presented itself in front of us, that brat has already gone to Western Domain.”

Desolate Emperor’s face was cold.

“Palace master, are you going to kill him yourself?”

Desolate Wuleng’s eyes sparkled.

“He’s just a puny brat and doesn’t require my interference. There has to be someone among the geniuses who can eliminate him. Well, I am joining the war this time to suppress the ‘super’ Devil Saints; Saint Origin Palace intends to provide a chance for the geniuses to experience a cruel trial in the war. I will be watching the movements of the ‘super’ Devil Saints and keep them out of the battlefield. At that time, the whole battlefield would be yours.”

Said Desolate Emperor.

“Rest assured, palace master. No matter what happens, we’ll not let that brat return alive this time.”

Desolate Wuleng ground his teeth. In his heart, both Jiang Chen and Gu Chen were his enemies, and they must die. It was needless to say about Jiang Chen because the conflict between him and Desolate Family had become irreparable. Comparably, Gu Chen had dealt considerable damage to Desolate Palace not long after arriving at Saint Origin Palace. Not only had he killed a few geniuses of Desolate Palace, but also made Desolate Palace lose face. More importantly, the potential Gu Chen had was too great; he would surely become an enormous threat to Desolate Palace in the future. Regardless of which aspect they looked this matter up, it was necessary to get rid of him.

……..

In Pure Land, Gu Family.

A large batch of Saint Origin Palace’s geniuses had arrived. Their arrival inflated the void with their Qi. They were greeted by the elders of Gu Family and directed them to Western Domain without stopping.

Jiang Chen didn’t hurry to the battlefield. He went to see Gu Xuantian instead. As the patriarch and the leader of Gu Family, naturally, he was required to stay and guard for Gu Family.

“Patriarch, what’s the status in Western Domain?”

Asked Jiang Chen.

“The Devil Race ran a riot and attacked the domain. The circumstances is very intense. Many experts from the eight major families were sent to support them, but the Devil Race was still invading fiercely. Most of the regions in the domain had fallen into their hands within a short period of time. Despite having a Seventh Grade Great Saint from the Great Lightning Tune Temple guarding there and the special abilities and magical treasures of Buddha Sect that could suppress the devils, they were on the losing end. If it wasn’t for the several Eighth Grade Great Saints that came from Gu Palace, the entire domain would’ve been devoured.”

Gu Xuantian sighed, but according to the history of Saint Origin World, the war with the Devil Race would lead to severe outcome every time.

“I can already feel the situation in Western Domain. As far as I’m concerned, this is an excellent opportunity. I will now head to Western Domain and enter the battlefield. The world would surelybecome chaotic whenever the Devil Race rampages. Even the eight major families will find it difficult to survive through this ordeal. As such, I will entrust my family to you, patriarch.”

Said Jiang Chen.

“This is the very foundation of the Gu Family and I won’t allow anyone to come over and trample us. Han Yan and Yan Chenyu have already gone to Western Domain. The chaos caused by the devil race this time has brought in plenty of major powers including your enemies. In this trip to Western Domain, you will not only face the devil army but also the vengeance of your enemies. You’ve got to be careful. You have reached the point which is beyond my capability to help.”

Gu Xuantian patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder. Presently, Jiang Chen had grown beyond the limits of Gu Xuantian. His strength and wisdom would suffice to confront everything alone.

*howl…* *howl…*

Every corner in the vast Western Domain was occupied by the enemy. Angry howls of the devils could be heard everywhere. Boundless devil waves filled every spot of the domain. The war had already spread to a few million miles. The peaks of the mountain had collapsed and the land were crowded with devils, and lives were destroyed.

The nature of the devils was originally very ferocious. The exit of the Devil World had been fully opened and the Great Lightning Tune Temple was gradually losing their defenses. It only took two days for the devil army to dominate the entire Western Domain. Currently, corpses were lying all over the ground. Countless of human cultivators died tragically in the battlefield.

Killings were happening everywhere and powerful devils were seen in every place. The intervention of the eight major families didn’t alleviate the intensity of the war, not until the emergence of Saint Origin Palace’s experts.

There was a city at the edge of Western Domain. They weren’t exempted from the invasion though. About a hundred miles above the city was packed with devils. Looking below, there was a man who looked thirty-years old or so, leading a large number of cultivators to fight the devils with everything they’ve got.

“Argh…” “Argh…” “Argh…”

However, these cultivators’ cultivation were just too weak. Lots of them were Combat King, some were Combat Soul, a dozen of Combat Emperors and only one Minor Saint expert, whereas the number of the devils were still increasing, and the ones that were coming were becoming more and more powerful. At the moment, three Third Grade Minor Saint devils appeared in the sky.

Despair was plastered on everyone’s face. That middle-aged leader was the City Lord. He too had become desperate and lost his hope.
