889 The Primordial Realms Disabled Elderly Village (2/2)
”Yes, yes!”
Behind him was a woman who replied impatiently. ”Just now, someone called out for you from within the fog. If you don't go over soon, he will be poisoned to death by you.”
”He won't die. When I heard him calling out just now, I ordered the poison within his body to stop growing… Eh, it's Qi Kang and Daoist Lin!”
Human Emperor Qi Kang was completely relieved, and he passed out. When he regained consciousness, he saw that he was lying on the body of a huge spider that was running forwards noisily.
Dao Master Lin Xuan was already completely healed and was sitting beside him.
He got up and looked around his surroundings, seeing his own disciple floating in mid-air with a sword on his back.
”Little Brat Su, this is?” Human Emperor Qi Kang saw that there were other people around—Jade Face Poison King, the God Eyes Spear God who called himself Blind, the Thief God who escaped extremely fast, the Art Saint Heavenly Painting Crown Prince, the old blacksmith, the most beautiful Granny Si, and others.
”We are going to save people.”
Village Chief looked back at him. ”Teacher, if you arrived a little later, we would have left the Heavenly Saint Academy. The cities around the academy have already been cleared by us.”
Human Emperor Qi Kang looked about and asked in puzzlement, ”Where are the people that you have saved?”
Suddenly the giant spider stopped. They had reached. Within the town were some old people who didn't manage to escape in time. Mute had a loud voice, and he yelled for everyone in the town to come out and stand together.
Deaf leaped down from the back of the spider and unraveled a scroll painting. He flipped it in their direction, and all of the people of this town were taken into the painting.
Human Emperor Qi Kang looked at the painting. The people from the town were walking about the painting, and there were other people there as well, amounting to tens of thousands of them.
Qi Kang was dumbstruck, and he noticed that within Mute's chest were hundreds of such scrolls.
”It's good that Teacher is awake.”
Village Chief continued, ”Along our journey, anyone can die but Deaf. No matter what, we have to escort Deaf alive to Eternal Peace's capital city!”
Human Emperor Qi Kang nodded silently. Suddenly, he asked in a hoarse voice, ”What happens after we reach the capital city?”
Village Chief was silent for a moment before he replied with a choked voice, ”I don't know either… I don't know either…”
”Four great heavenly teachers, four great heavenly kings, where are they?” Human Emperor Qi Kang asked again.
Everyone remained silent. Village Chief choked out, ”I don't know…”
”They are the forces of Founding Emperor, we are Eternal Peace.”
Granny Si smiled warmly. ”It's only rational that they don't help Eternal Peace. If we asked them to help, we would just be bringing harm to them.”
Everyone nodded their heads and didn't speak up again.
”By the way, do any of you know Wei Suifeng?” Human Emperor Qi Kang suddenly thought of the weirdo in the cage and asked.
Granny Si was astonished. ”Wei Suifeng is the Heavenly Saint Cult's Founding Master, the big disciple of Saint Woodcutter. Why does Human Emperor Qi know of his name? Mu'er has been looking for him for a long time. He said that he left some geographical maps behind that hid many secrets.”
Human Emperor Qi Kang looked blankly before he cried out, ”Heavenly Saint Cult's Founding Master? No wonder he was of such devil nature! I saw him, he was drowned in the river by the celestial heavens' Green Deity of the Eastern Sky and then fused with the ghost ship. He also said something about following the map to save him. I think…”
He hesitated for a while before continuing, ”I think that he may be the most powerful person after the annihilation of the Founding Emperor Era, and from the Eternal Peace Era until now.”
Granny Si shook her head. ”This founding master is one who washed his hands of all responsibility and vanished after founding the Heavenly Saint Cult. He can't be too powerful. If he can even cultivate to become a god at present, it would probably be due to a miracle.”
Human Emperor Qi Kang was taken aback, and he scratched his head. ”He may have already cultivated to the Emperor's Throne Realm. He may be the one and only existence on the Emperor's Throne Realm in Eternal Peace.”
Everyone was astonished.
Village Chief clarified, ”You said that he was drowned in the river by the celestial heavens' Green Deity of the Eastern Sky and that he fused with the ghost ship?”
Human Emperor Qi Kang nodded his head.
Village Chief spoke resolutely, ”Then he can't be saved!”
Everyone was puzzled. Village Chief explained, ”Mu'er spoke of the ghost ship to me before. He said that he relied on the divine arts of the four deities of the ancient gods and the power of the most formidable ancient army of gods and devils to solve the divine art of the ghost ship and walk out alive. Wei Suifeng has fused together with the ghost ship, where can he find the four deities of the ancient gods? Don't bother thinking about saving him, he is definitely dead without question.”
Granny Si furrowed her brows.
Butcher smiled. ”We should still tell this to Mu'er, whether or not he wants to save him is up to him.”
Granny Si let out a sigh of relief, and then she asked again with worry, ”Does anyone know where Mu'er ran off to?”
Human Emperor Qi Kang hurriedly replied, ”He is still in the Great Ruins and should be near Border Dragon City! When we were passing by there, there was an army of the celestial heavens that said they were following orders to go and kill the Son of Youdu!”
Village Chief pondered over it and said resolutely, ”Cripple, go and inform Mu'er. You have the greatest speed and the least courage. When a fight breaks out, you just run off, so there's nothing much you can do here.”
The honest Cripple snorted, a little unhappy.
Blind added with concern, ”Cripple, be careful on your way there, don't die.”
”I haven't stolen from the celestial heavens yet, so how can I die?”
Cripple laughed out loud and instantly vanished, and a series of thunder rumbling could be heard from afar. Clearly, he was already several hundred miles away.
”This rascal, he runs pretty d*mn fast!” everyone exclaimed in admiration.
Cripple sprinted all the way, and after a few days and nights, he reached the surroundings of Border Dragon City. Looking around, he didn't find any traces of Qin Mu. Instead, he saw that suddenly, the sky was filled with radiant stars, and all of a sudden, within a split second, a resplendent galaxy emerged.
Cripple was startled. The stars in the sky multiplied and grew larger and larger, and the sounds of war drums could be heard indistinctly.
Very soon, the bright stars could be identified clearly with the naked eye. They were ancient gods, completely different from mortals. They were like the ancient gods that had walked out of myths and legends, and the halos at the back of their heads resembled stars.
”Lay the inescapable net and capture the Son of Youdu!” A voice that sounded like thunder and lightning came from the skies.
Cripple's heart flickered, and he moved along the direction of the galaxy flow. From afar, he could see the boundless darkness that resembled an enormous black pot covering the Primordial Realm upside down, enshrouding it for god knows how many tens of thousands of miles.
In the darkness, innumerous celestial troops and generals drove battleships and rushed forwards. The rays of light from the various divine arts tore through the darkness.
Within the torn darkness, a god with three heads and six limbs was slaughtering mercilessly. He had drawn the attention of almost a third of the army of the celestial heavens that had come to the lower bound.
Cripple retracted his head. ”That's Mu'er? The Mu'er that used to fight with me over sugar-coated haws when he was a child?”
