Berserk God of War

59: Chapter 059: Into Ru Yun Mountain, Like the Arrival of a Kingly Beast 59: Chapter 059: Into Ru Yun Mountain, Like the Arrival of a Kingly Beast Luo Ning let out a breath and hurriedly said with a placating smile, “Young Master Sikong, you are truly magnanimous.

This young lady admires you.”

Having said that, Luo Ning cast a cold glance at Xiao Wu and the others, and called out sharply, “Let’s set off.”

She took the lead, walking side by side with Sikong Jing, followed by the chilling gaze of Xiao Wu and his comrades.

What in the world is Cousin Luo Ning up to?

Clearly, Sikong Jing has only reached the Bright Realm Ninth Layer.

Why is she saying that she needs to rely on him?

At that moment, Luo Ning’s voice rang out from up ahead, “Young Master Sikong, when did you reach the Bright Realm Ninth Layer?”

Her eyes bright with interest, she first met Sikong Jing when he was at the Bright Realm Sixth Layer, and he easily defeated her at that time.

She had also personally witnessed his breakthrough to the Bright Realm Seventh Layer, where with two punches he killed the Fierce Beast leader of the Third Level of the Dark Realm and slaughtered the entire Fierce Beast bandits group.

Now that he has reached the Ninth Layer of the Bright Realm, he must be even more formidable.

It was precisely because of Sikong Jing’s realms that Luo Ning no longer regretted inviting him, and felt even more emboldened to rebuke Xiao Wu.

“Just a couple of days ago,” Sikong Jing casually answered.

Luo Ning chuckled softly, “Young Master Sikong is incredible, to have reached the Ninth Layer of the Bright Realm in just a few days.

This young lady admires you even more.”

Xiao Wu and the others following behind nearly stumbled and fell to the ground.

What’s so great about the Bright Realm Ninth Layer, and why don’t we know about it?

Meanwhile, the two soldiers behind them who were on surveillance duty exchanged looks, with one asking, “Old Zhang, do you think General Chou Ye is making a mountain out of a molehill?

Just the Bright Realm Ninth Layer and yet we, two at the Peak of the Dark Realm, are sent to keep watch?”

“It’s because Miss Luo Ning said he slaughtered the entire Fierce Beast bandits group, and General Chou Ye also said he must be at least at the Seventh or Eighth Layer of the Dark Realm.”

Old Zhang spoke hesitantly, looking utterly baffled.

According to Chou Ye’s judgment, someone who could slaughter the entire Fierce Beast bandits group would have to be at least at the Seventh or Eighth Layer of the Dark Realm.

Chou Ye had never personally tested Sikong Jing’s realm.

The first soldier pulled a wry face and, staring at Luo Ning’s retreating back, said, “A woman’s words, trust them at your peril.”

The two of them knew very well that the credit for dealing with the Fierce Beast bandits group was attributed to Luo Ning by Chou Ye.

It was all fabricated on the spot at that time, and it’s quite possible that this criminal’s claim of slaughtering the Fierce Beast bandits group was just more of Luo Ning’s fabrications.

“Forget it, since we’re already out of the city, there’s no need to go back.

Let’s just keep watch.”

Having said this, the two casually followed along.

Soon, the members of the Luoshui Jade Line also emerged from Ru Yun Town and arrived at the foot of Ru Yun Mountain.

By that time, Lei Dong and the others were already waiting there.

Naturally, there were also several high-ranking members from both the Luoshui Jade Line and the Thunder Wing Trading House.

All were masters of the Human Realm, and the duel was to take place under their surveillance to ensure that no unstable elements would interfere.

For this duel, both trading houses had even temporarily sealed off Ru Yun Mountain, preventing others from entering or leaving.

Of course, they had also noticed the presence of the two soldiers.

The two soldiers did not explain the surveillance of Sikong Jing, merely mentioning that they had official business to take care of on Ru Yun Mountain.

Neither trading house dared to obstruct them.

“The time has come, let the duel begin.”

Following the order from high-ranking members of the two trading houses, both teams stepped into Ru Yun Mountain.

Of course, they did not enter by the same trail but were separated by a distance of ten kilometers, which would prevent both teams from clashing with each other right at the beginning.

Their only target was the Qian Yubao.

On the Luoshui Jade Line’s side, the moment Sikong Jing set foot on Ru Yun Mountain, he immediately froze in place, completely stunned.

His gaze carried an indescribable turmoil.

“Young Master Sikong, what’s wrong?”

It was only after Luo Ning turned around and asked in confusion that Sikong Jing snapped out of it.

“Nothing, I just feel that this is where I truly belong.”

Sikong Jing’s eyes were profound, his voice a bit hoarse.

At this moment, he seemed to hear clearly the various cries of beasts all around, feeling a sense of intimacy.

He, it was as if he had truly come home.

The True Qi within him also began to circulate unconsciously, and he felt his breathing synchronize with the ebb and flow of the clouds on Ru Yun Mountain.

The rhythm was in perfect harmony, and he fell into a wondrous sensation.

“Uh?” Luo Ning couldn’t understand the meaning behind Sikong Jing’s words.

At that moment, the mocking laugh sounded again, “Cousin, perhaps he has never entered such a demon beast-infested mountain and is scared stiff.”

The speaker was still Xiao Wu.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ning abruptly looked up and then extended her hand…

smack!

A heavy slap landed on Xiao Wu’s face.

In his bewildered moment, Luo Ning coldly said, “Cousin, I have warned you many times.”

“Yet you repeatedly offend Young Master Sikong.

If there’s a next time, get out of Luoshui Jade Line.”

Having said this, she disregarded Xiao Wu and looked toward Sikong Jing to apologize again.

But now, Sikong Jing was obviously not paying attention to these things; instead, he continued to attune to the aura around him.

Several breaths later, he moved forward without a word.

“He’s not angry, is he?” Seeing this, Luo Ning chased after with a bit of panic.

Behind her, Xiao Wu clutched his burning face, trembling with rage as he said, “I must kill this weakling.”

…

Time slipped away bit by bit, and as they ventured deeper into the mountain, that strange feeling Sikong Jing had grew stronger.

It seemed as if his every step carried a mystical rhythm.

Before they knew it, night had fallen.

In the pitch-black depths of Ru Yun Mountain, the roars of demon beasts were relentless, as if to devour all unfamiliar life.

“Young Master Sikong, it’s very dangerous in Ru Yun Mountain at night, should we stop for a moment?” Luo Ning caught up and asked.

But Sikong Jing did not answer; he had already fallen into a rhythm synchronized with Ru Yun Mountain, continuing to march on.

Luo Ning frowned at this.

She didn’t understand what Sikong Jing was doing but could only follow.

Although Xiao Wu and the others behind her were very dissatisfied, the warning given by the slap earlier made them dare not speak out.

As time continued to flow, it soon became deep night, and the chill surrounding everyone grew even stronger.

Luo Ning was a little scared.

But Sikong Jing, up ahead, was still steadily striding forward.

“What in the world is he doing?” Luo Ning’s eyes were filled with even greater puzzlement.

But at that time, neither Luo Ning nor Xiao Wu and the others behind her realized that their surroundings had become too quiet.

After being in here so long, not even a single demon beast had come close.

They were completely unaware that some little demon beasts were crouching and trembling, showing reverence in the direction of Sikong Jing.

“Roar!”

Suddenly, a roar of a demon beast exploded around them.

Luo Ning instinctively looked up, her face turning pale with shock, “Qian Yubao.”

Unbeknownst to them, they had entered the territory of Qian Yubao.

According to the original plan, they were supposed to start their encirclement and attack on Qian Xiabao at noon the next day because that’s when Qian Yubao would have finished feeding and would be in deep sleep – an opportune time.

In the deep night, however, Qian Yubao was most ferocious and most difficult to deal with.

Even those at the first and second levels of Human Realm would not dare to face the terrifyingly fast Qian Yubao in the darkness of deep night.

Chills ran down everyone’s spines as they raised their weapons in a defensive stance.

Luo Ning, holding her sword, said, “There are so many of us, Qian Yubao might not dare to attack; it will probably bypass us.”

If Qian Yubao were to attack now, they would likely suffer countless casualties.

They could only silently pray that Qian Yubao would not come over.

“Roar!”

But as her words fell, another roar sounded, followed by a leopard with jade-green spots darting out from the jungle, presenting itself in front of everyone, menacing and terrifying!
