Chapter 289 - Mystique Rank Demon Wolf (1/2)

The Grand Supreme Rank was something that only appeared in legends. It was a level that they could only dream of reaching. Their only brush against it was in the rumors about ranks for humans, where it was said that the levels above Tenth Level were the Earthly Venerable Rank, the Heavenly Venerable Rank, Mystique Venerable Rank, Godly Venerable Rank, and finally Peerless Power. As for mystical beasts, what came after the Tenth Level was Earthly Adept Rank, Heavenly Adept Rank, Mystique Adept Rank, Daemon King Rank, and Grand Supreme Rank.

A Grand Supreme Celestial or Mystical Beast was equivalent to a person at the level of Peerless Power. It was a rank that was even higher than the Godly Venerable Rank!

“Your Highness, Daemon Kings are naturally more powerful than Mystique Venerable Rank combatants.” Nie Qingyun lowered his voice and said cautiously. He was also a little frightened.

Little Wingsy had been lagging behind, so Nie Qingyun and Great Emperor Mingwu did not know much about him. They just knew that Little Wingsy’s knowledge was still that of a child’s. However, in terms of strength and physical power, he should have already reached Daemon King Rank.

Therefore, Nie Qingyun was extremely respectful and humble towards Little Wingsy.

“What’s to fear about them if they’re lower than Daemon King Rank? If anybody from their sect dares to challenge us I’ll just beat them up!” Little Wingsy raised his fists and huffed. He glanced at Xie Dao and Xie Jian.

Xie Dao and Xie Jian’s legs weakened at Little Wingsy’s glance, almost as if they had encountered some terrifying being. This little boy was already a Daemon King. Even the Daemon Fire Sect could not stand up to him. They no longer had anyone to back them up.

It seemed like Little Wingsy and Ye Chen had not encountered a Grand Supreme Rank combatant yet either. Nie Qingyun and Great Emperor Mingwu glanced at each other. Little Wingsy was the type to speak rashly. From his words, they obtained information that gave them a bit of confidence.

Little Wingsy clenched his fists and marched up to Xie Dao and Xie Jian. He was prepared to beat them up violently.

Although there was no doubt that Xie Dao and Xie Jian would be defeated, Ye Chen was worried that an accident might happen. He flew towards Little Wingsy’s direction and had advanced several dozen meters when he suddenly sensed a Psyche scouting the area.

Ye Chen frowned. There were Celestial Beasts here as well?

He snorted coldly and released his own Astral Body.

The Psyche quivered in fright after touching Ye Chen’s Astral Body and quickly shrunk back.

Ye Chen’s Astral Body chased after it all the way to a woodland hundreds of meters away. In the thick grass was a giant wolf with fiery red fur. The giant wolf was as tall as a person and looked extremely sturdy.

The giant wolf felt Ye Chen’s Astral Body sweep over it and immediately lay on the ground, trembling in fright.

It did not expect to meet a Daemon King here. That strength was not inferior to the three Wolf Kings. It was almost frightened to death. If Ye Chen decided to kill it, it would not have any chance of survival. It was impossible to try and escape from a Daemon King! Now, it could only lie down obediently and wait for the Daemon King’s actions.

Seeing the demon wolf lie prone on the ground, Ye Chen frowned.

This was a Mystique Adept Rank Celestial Beast!

What was a Mystique Adept Rank demon wolf doing here? Could it be that the Wolven Kingdom decided it wanted to be in the war between the Xiwu Empire and the Nanman Kingdom? Or did the Wolven Kingdom simply send this demon wolf to take a look at the situation?

If it was the former, then Ye Chen would not know what to do. However, if it was the latter, then that made things easier.

“Where are you from?” Ye Chen’s Astral Body passed the message.

“Your Highness, I’m from the Wolven Kingdom.” The demon wolf spoke the human language and said respectfully.

“Is the Wolven Kingdom preparing to intervene in the war between the Nanman Kingdom and the Xiwu Empire?” Ye Chen asked. Although he had some encounters with the Wolven Kingdom, he would never take the initiative to provoke the Wolven Kingdom before he grew strong enough. However, if the Wolven Kingdom wanted to attack the Xiwu Empire, it would be a different story.

“No, Your Highness, the Wolven Kingdom isn’t planning to interfere in the war between the Nanman Kingdom and the Xiwu Empire. However, the Nanman Kingdom and the Xiwu Empire are inside the Wolven Kingdom’s sphere of influence, so the three Wolf Kings sent me to observe the war situation between the two countries. We did not expect to encounter Your Highness here.” The demon wolf did not dare to conceal anything and laid everything bare to Ye Chen. Its head was almost touching the ground. At this time, it was scared to death. Ye Chen could instantly crush its Psyche, and just one thought was enough to kill it. It could only hope that Ye Chen would spare it out on behalf of the three Wolf Kings.

“I’ve been living amongst the humans for several decades and have been staying inside the Xiwu Empire. I want to keep the Empire. I ask that the three Wolf Kings don’t interfere, otherwise I’ll certainly pay my respects to them some other day.” Ye Chen was silent for a long time. These words could be considered to be giving face to the Wolven Kingdom. After all, he was a Daemon King Ranked being!

“I’ll certainly convey Your Highness’s words to the three Wolf Kings.” The taut strings pulling the demon wolf’s heart suddenly relaxed at Ye Chen’s words. The Nanman Kingdom really was pitiful. They had planned to attack the Xiwu Empire for a long time, and when they finally did, they found that a Daemon King was hidden within their ranks. Was provoking a Daemon King not equivalent to courting death? It seemed like they had to knock some sense into Tuoba Hongye when they went back. They could not handle the Xiwu Empire.

“Alright, go.” Ye Chen retrieved his Astral Body. The demon wolf repeatedly kowtowed and thanked him before running away with its tail between its legs.

Seeing the demon wolf running, Ye Chen frowned. Once news of his appearance in the Capital City of the Xiwu Empire spread, the Nanman Kingdom would definitely stop attacking and retreat their army. The Grandruler of Nanman, Tuoba Hongye, was not an idiot. He knew who they could provoke and who they could not.

However, for the time being, the Xiwu Empire could not launch a counterattack on the Nanman Kingdom. Ye Chen could not fight, because the moment he did, his real strength would be exposed!

Temporarily stabilizing the situation would already be a very good turn of events for the Xiwu Empire.
