Chapter 374 - Theres Still Hope (1/2)

“Th-this…” The Eight-armed Giant Beast’s muscles twitched. For a few times, it wanted to charge out, but when it thought about the little bird on its head, it felt cold as though a bucket of cold water was poured down from its head.

Nonetheless, it widened its huge and fierce eyes and stared ahead. The Humans’ city appeared to be a detestable place to it, and it hated the tiny cultivators to their bones.

On the other hand, the little bird was excited after watching what happened. It remarked with a laugh, “This human’s quite interesting for being able to utilize the Illusion Art in this way. It’s such a pity that he was born in this world…”

The Eight-armed Giant Beast expressed, “This human must die!”

“You can kill him but only if you make the fight more intense such that they’re well-matched so the Sky-devouring Evil Remnant will be drawn here.” The little bird was not bothered.

“Yes, sir.” The Eight-armed Giant Beast lowered its head.

It later looked up and gave a special order.

The ferocious beasts outside the prefecture were stunned when they heard the sound, but they soon gripped their dead comrades with their teeth and swarmed back to where they came from. Needless to say, the three humongous creatures were abandoned on the battlefield.

After all, the three giant beasts’ bodies were too huge. Unless the Eight-armed Giant Beast made a move, they could not be carried away at all.

Seeing as the beasts outside the city retreated like a tide, the people on the walls looked at each other. When someone cheered all of a sudden, it was so contagious that the other people began to follow suit.

Genuine smiles were seen on everyone’s faces. When the Earthly Dragon Beasts showed up earlier, the people were in despair.

This was because the three giant beasts exceeded the Humans’ capability to resist. Even when almost all Supreme Great Ancestors from the city left to fight, the other people did not feel a.s.sured at all.

It was when Ou Yangming and the reinforcements appeared there was a radical change in the situation.

In particular, the Earthly Dragon Beasts suddenly went mad, where they trampled on the beast herd and killed each other in the end. The outcome was unexpected, but it gave everyone hope again.

On the city walls and behind them, countless people jumped with joy and embraced each other. They also wielded their weapons to express their delight for having survived the disaster.

Although they did not fight at close quarters with their enemies, they had the same feeling from watching the fight from the walls. Given that the people on the walls were already feeling that way, the ones around the three ma.s.sive creatures, especially the great ancestors from the prefecture, felt more deeply about it. They were in disbelief when they looked at the three carca.s.ses. Elder Universe finally sighed after a long time. He looked away and expressed his grat.i.tude, “Thank you, everyone.”

Ni Jingshen and the other people felt like they had just awakened from their dreams. They quickly thanked the Supreme Great Ancestors, who had come to help.

Woo Lejia and the other great ancestors from the capital knew very well who the elders were and how close they were with Ou Yangming. They dared not be conceited at all, so they humbly returned the salutations.

On the other hand, Wu Hanning had stopped and put Ou Yangming on the ground.

Ou Yangming panted heavily and was still pale, giving him a poor complexion. It would not be too much of a burden if he performed the Simulated Spiritual Fist under normal circ.u.mstances, but it was completely different if he paid it with the Charm Arm Guard and used them against gigantic creatures like Earthly Dragon Beasts.

Wu Hanning retrieved a jade bottle and poured out a pill, which she sent to Ou Yangming’s mouth.

The young fellow looked at her before he opened his mouth and swallowed the pill.

It was just a simple act where the princess fed him a pill, but it was clear that there was an unordinary relations.h.i.+p between them.

Nevertheless, the great ancestors including the anxious ancestors from the Ni family turned a blind eye.

Ni Jingshen later cleared his throat and stated, “Gentlemen, your weapons…”

The Supreme Great Ancestors from the prefecture p.r.i.c.ked up their ears and looked at the weapons eagerly.

When they previously fought together and noticed something unusual, they could not talk about right away because the fight was intense. The great ancestors from the capital were not slick enough when they fought the three Earthly Dragon Beasts, but their weapons left deep impressions. Given that they were able to break the dragon beasts’ defenses, they had to be magic tools.

It would not be surprising if there were one or two magic tools.

Since Ou Yangming could smith three magic tools, it would make sense that he could smith three more.

However, if each of the 26 Supreme Great Ancestors had a magic tool, it would be too shocking

Woo Lejia chuckled and responded, “Our weapons are all magic tools.” “Magic tools—they’re magic tools indeed…”

The great ancestors from the prefecture exchanged glances and were envious, but most of them looked at Ou Yangming in confusion.

‘Did Master Ou Yangming smith these magic tools?’
