Chapter 679: Deterrence from Levitating Island (2/2)

“You fool, did you forget what master told us? If you want to do something, do it with confidence. Look at you, you’re so fearful that you don’t even have the courage to kill them. How can you still call yourself a monster spirit?!” Silverblaze’s gaze was as chilly as winter when she saw that Yuan Tong seemed to have some qualms about really going on a killing spree. At most, he only immobilized the Lang immortals during his wild antics.

“But if I start killing, won’t that make trouble for Lord Lu Yun?” Yuan Tong asked in a small voice. “After all, there doesn’t seem to be any enmity between Lord Lu Yun and the Lang Clan.”

Yuan Tong and Silverblaze had long learned of Lu Yun’s identity, since the golden scarlet ape hadn’t kept the information from them. Now that Yuan Tong was fighting for Lu Yun’s sake, he was deathly worried that the Lang Clan would blame any deaths on his great benefactor.

“You idiot!” Silverblaze erupted in a tirade. “They’ve already attacked Lord Lu Yun and tried to send him to the afterlife… Do you seriously think there’s no enmity between them?”

Yuan Tong wasn’t very sharp, and his thought process was slow compared to most people. So when he heard Silverblaze, he stared into empty space for a moment before suddenly exploding into action. Transforming back into his silverback self, he barked a challenge before careenering into the Lang Clan.

“Kill, kill, kill! The deader the better, kekeke!” The silver scarlet ape capered excitedly, cheering on her disciples from the sidelines.

When it came to being blindly partial to her own, she was even more extreme than the golden scarlet ape. Earlier on, the golden scarlet ape had been about to attack Lu Yun’s lightning rod, but the silver scarlet ape had swept him off his feet with her staff.

“This Lu Yun saved my life and freed me from that damned underworld, so stay put!” She bared her teeth. “If you start fighting, the taboo existences in Dusk Province will join the melee as well, and countless children in the North Sea will suffer!

“Listen carefully!” she suddenly bellowed. “Origin dao level combatants are prohibited from meddling in Lu Yun’s tribulation. Otherwise, don’t blame this queen’s staff for being merciless!”

Dong!

She viciously smashed a certain part of the air with her black staff and bared her teeth. “Did you not hear me? Origin dao level combatants are forbidden from making a move!”

Boom!

Space cracked at her feet and turned into an enormous black hole. In response, the silver scarlet ape yanked the cape off her dao partner and draped it over her own body.

“Monster Spirit Ancestor…” A vague figure walked out of the void. Without a doubt, it was a celestial emperor. However, he was employing a special power to hide his presence in order to conceal his identity.

“Shut your mouth!” When the silver scarlet ape heard the title the celestial emperor used to address her, she smacked her dao partner for lack of a more accessible target.

“Monster Spirit Ancestor? Kekeke. In this world, no monster spirit other than the fox deserves the title. My name is Silverlight, so that is what you should call me. As for this kid, he’s called Goldenlight.” Silverlight casually discredited her so-called monster sacred land with a few simple words. Without a monster spirit ancestor, or the ancient one’s sacred land, was her faction even worthy of being called such?

“Silverlight, are you not tempted by the Dao Flower?” The celestial emperor’s tones were cold.

“I am, of course I am! But even so, I have to let my arcane dao juniors fight for it. A battle at the origin dao level will affect the current balance of power. That chickenheart from the Purple Firmament ran away, so I have to protect this world myself!

“If origin dao immortals participate… Children!”

Fwoom!

The next moment, a full eighteen origin dao auras shot into the sky behind Silverlight, each of which represented a flawless origin dao immortal!

“Very well, origin dao combatants are forbidden from participating in this struggle!” the celestial emperor promptly declared. To think there’d be eighteen flawless origin dao immortals on Levitating Island! The number was too terrifying to contemplate.
