Chapter 499 The Final Battle

Then White Wolf pondered for a moment and said, “But we had better not bring the beasts together with his. Once they encounter cultivators from the Immortal court, I will lose control of them. I am afraid that they might snap at us in the end… We can bring the wolf pack, though.”

Li Ye contemplated on it and found it reasonable. Though White Wolf could control the beasts, the Immortals were better than him. “Well, it is unnecessary to bring the wolves then.”

There were only about 5 hundred wolves and only a few of them were very helpful on the battlefield. Many of them died when the beasts were attacking them. Li Ye believed they would not be of much help.

Seeing Li Ye busy deploying his forces, Zhao Batian waved his hands and a demon cultivator of Taiyi Real Immortal Realm approached.

“How far is the beasts’ den from here?” Zhao Batian asked.

“We can be there within four days if we are fast enough.” This Taiyi Real Immortal was called Zhao Dengke, the general of the Zhao Family in Zhenjiang City. He had the face of a horse, but actually he was a buffalo demon.

Zhao Batian nodded. Zhao Dengke had told him about it before. The den was on a mountain, which could be regarded as the main peak of Blackstone Ridge. It was guarded by cultivators of Taiyi Real Immortal Realm.

Li Ye did not ask any more since they might not be able to answer his questions. At least You Daxiao and the panther demon could help him in the dark. Besides, with the help of the Shield of heaven, he could at least run from danger, especially when there were so many cultivators.

Under Zhao Dengke’s lead, the cultivators went straight to the Blackstone ridge without talking too much.

Although Zhao Batian was a petulant man, he was not stupid. He sent several cultivators of Immortal Realm to act as scouts, while other Great Cultivators were asked to march through the woods. Li Ye was impressed by Zhao Batian’s decision.

“Four day’s march? That will be boring!” The sparrow sighed on Li Ye’s shoulder. He looked upset and its head was down.

Li Ye took out Zhao Batian’s storage bags, retrieved some Dan Pills and gave them to the sparrow.

The sparrow’s eyes brightened when he saw the pills. He flapped his wings to collect the pills. One second later he began eating the pills, its head moving up and down like a sewing machine.

Li Ye asked a question that had long been in his heart, “You take these pills to strengthen your cultivation?”

It was extremely interested in Dan Pills. The first time Li Ye met him, he had been captured by the tiger demon in Star Pavilion because he was found eating pills without the tiger demon’s permission. Although Li Ye often “abused” this creature, he only did it when the sparrow made a mistake. Actually, Li Ye had been nice to him.

Li Yan allowed this creature to stand on his shoulder, which was a firm proof that he bore no ill intent toward the sparrow. And Li Ye had been giving the sparrow pills. He even doubted that the sparrow might fly away to look for more pills one day, given the fact that the sparrow was so obsessed with Dan Pills.

The sparrow did not answer instantly. After he finished all the pills, he eased himself back onto Li Ye’s shoulder and said with satisfaction, “Of course. It is much faster, like I am on a rocket… a flying sword. It took me to another level in the blink of an eye.”

“On a rocket?” Li Ye frowned, he heard the words clearly.

“Rocket? What is that?” The sparrow looked away, pretending that he did not know the word.

“You don’t know what the word you just said was?”

“I said flying sword! Flying sword! Your Highness, you must have misheard!” The sparrow sounded very serious as if he really did not say that word.

Li Ye pondered for a moment and decided to stop asking. He was not so sure if the sparrow had said the word “rocket”.

Because of the poem “You woke up, my little fish”, he highly doubted that the Duchess was also a transmigrant. But if the sparrow was also one, would there be more transmigrants?

Transmigrate to be a sparrow? Li Ye found it rather ridiculous.

If the creature was also a transmigrant, it meant that it could not even talk before it underwent a long cultivation. And he had to protect himself from other demons. Li Ye could not imagine the hardship.

“By the way, I remembered that I asked you why you still have not taken on your human form. You said that you will not do that before that thing is done. What is that thing?” Li Ye kept chatting with the creature. It would be boring if they did not do anything during the march.

The Duchess, proprietress and all the other cultivators looked at them, seemingly ready to listen to the answer. They were so bored that they did not mind listening to some gossip.

The sparrow sighed. There was retrospect in his eyes and somehow it made the cultivators feel sad. “Once upon a time, I was in a true relationship, but I never treated it seriously. No matter what she had done, I never cared until I lost it. It was not that I did not care about it. It was a lie I told myself. But it was too late then…”

Li Ye laughed, “A female sparrow?”

“That sounds like discrimination?” The sparrow complained.

“Never.” Li Ye held back his laughter and said, “So what is that thing?”

“I swore to kill all of those who murdered her! Before that, I will never take on my human form!” The sparrow said with resentment.

“Who killed her?”

“A very powerful man. I can’t defeat him now. But I will find him when I am powerful enough to beat him!”

Li Ye nodded his head to show his support. Then he took out several bottles of Dan Pills and threw them to the sparrow. The sparrow took them. His eyes reddened. “I will follow you to the immortal world after this!”

“I appreciate that.” Li Ye smiled.

When Li Ye was speaking with the sparrow, Qi Potian and the cultivators from Liuxi Town sneaked into Zhao Batian’s group. He had helped some cultivators who were not very good at taking a long trip, which earned him a good reputation.Read More chapter at vi pnovel. com

Every time he received praises, he would say proudly while patting his chest, “I, a butcher from Blackstone Ridge, and an Elder of Killing hands, must tell you that helping each other is a good quality of our Big Master and a behavior standard we all should follow. It is only natural for me to give you a helping hand.”

He sounded modest, but his face was full of complacency.
