Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 857: Chapter 858: Emperor Yan! Gun Emperor! (2 updates)

”Hmm, let’s set off then.”

Ling Feng pursed his lips. Tuoba Yan had mentioned that the Red Dust Heart Devouring Gu in his body had mostly been neutralized, so there was no need to wait for her to come out before taking action.

After all, if they waited any longer, the Demon Clan’s goals might have already been achieved.

”Yes, General Ling!”

Cao Meng responded in a muffled voice, especially emphasizing the word ”General,” showing his obvious dissatisfaction with Ling Feng, feeling that he was overly arrogant.

As the saying goes, ignore the words of the wise and suffer in front of you!

He had made himself quite clear, yet this kid insisted on acting on his own, so he could only let him be reckless.

But after all, he is a King-level expert, how could he not have a temper?

Ling Feng didn’t intend to blame Cao Meng. People are always blindly confident in what they see, and at this moment, Cao Meng was like Sun Gongming back then.

His true intention was still for the greater good. And since he couldn’t discuss the Holy Land’s involvement, it was understandable that Cao Meng could misunderstand him without knowing the truth.

Anyway, Ling Feng didn’t expect these people to do anything for him. At the very least, they needed to have the ability to protect themselves. Only then would there be a chance to deliver the message back to the Sky-reaching Fortress.

...

A group of ten quickly set out, fully prepared, moving at full speed in the direction of Luohai City, aiming straight for the Sitting and Forgetting Valley.

Beyond the fortress, there were a total of twelve blockade lines. Unfortunately, all the defenses were dismantled as they passed through, as there was a Demon Emperor among the opponents. These blockade lines could only delay them temporarily and were not very effective.

Fortunately, because the Demon Clan had to avoid the pursuers behind them, they didn’t go on a killing spree, so the casualties among the guards on the blockade lines weren’t too severe.

Up until the final blockade line, there was an immensely large palm print left on the grand tower. Someone had smashed a large hole with one palm, forcibly breaking through the barrier.

On top of the tower, the defending General Sun Gongming was directing soldiers to rescue the wounded and clear the bodies, with the scene quite tragic.

”General Sun!”

Ling Feng sighed lightly, leaping onto the tower and landing in front of Sun Gongming.

”General Ling?” Sun Gongming first seemed pleased upon seeing Ling Feng but then let out another sigh. He considered himself lucky not to be hit by the Demon Emperor’s palm, unlike Commander Xiao, who had obstructed Ling Feng that day.

He was instantly killed by a Demon Clan expert without even leaving a complete corpse!

”General Sun, what’s the casualty situation?” Cao Meng also jumped onto the tower, asking.

”General Cao... General Cao, you’re here too?”

Sun Gongming was stunned for a moment, having thought Ling Feng was heading back to the Imperial City, not expecting that his companions had changed to the Northwest Army’s generals this time.

This General Cao Meng was a major general in the army, a King-level expert. Even before his demotion, he could only look up to such a presence.

”Hmm, the Grand Commander ordered me to accompany General Ling to investigate some evidence of the Demon Clan’s invasion.”

Cao Meng casually said.

”Phew...” Sun Gongming couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Ling Feng has only been at the Northwest Camp for a few days, and he can already mobilize King-level generals?

This Grand Commander is too fond of Ling Feng!

”Alright, this is not the time to discuss this.” Ling Feng shook his head and continued to ask Sun Gongming, ”General Sun, when did the Demon Clan break through?”

”About an hour ago, but soon Emperor Yan and Gun Emperor led many soldiers in pursuit. The local Demon Emperor experts were held up by two Human Emperors, so it shouldn’t be easy for them to escape.”

Sun Gongming answered truthfully.

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. This Emperor Yan and Gun Emperor were, of course, the Human Emperor experts stationed at the Sky-reaching Fortress.

Although the number of Human Emperors in the entire fortress could be counted on one hand, Han Li was quite fierce in this regard. The Northern Demon Clan dared to invade the Empire, whether Demon King or Demon Emperor, they must pay a bloody price.

As for the Demon Emperor, they were restricted by the Holy Land. Generally speaking, Emperor Realm experts must not act lightly, or they would provoke the Great Emperor experts of the Holy Land.

”It’s already been an hour.” Ling Feng took a deep breath and then said slowly, ”General Cao, we should set out too.”

”Yes!”

Cao Meng replied lazily, thinking that since Emperor Yan and Gun Emperor had already intervened, there was no need for them to make unnecessary moves.

However, Ling Feng was now the leader, so he could only follow his orders.

Sun Gongming, being experienced, naturally noticed Cao Meng’s apparent dissatisfaction with Ling Feng. He shook his head with a smile and bowed to Cao Meng, ”General Cao, if possible, you should try to trust General Ling.”

”Hmm?” Cao Meng’s eyelid twitched, looking at Sun Gongming with a trace of displeasure.

Does a demoted small-time general have the right to tell me how to act?

Sun Gongming smiled bitterly, ”I once doubted General Ling’s judgment, and later I lost an arm. General Cao, I have said all I can.”

Cao Meng’s pupils shrank slightly, glancing at Sun Gongming’s empty sleeve on the right arm, and couldn’t help but ponder deeply.

”Set off!”

Ling Feng smiled mildly, cupping his fists in a salute to Sun Gongming, then once again employed his movement technique, leading Cao Meng and others at full speed.

After the last blockade line, the road began to diverge into several paths, leading to the nearby Luohai City, or heading south or north along the main roads.

In a southward area of stone mountains, traces of battles were evident, with the ground riddled with potholes and scorched earth. The hills were battered and scarred, illustrating the fierceness of a battle between Emperor-level experts.

”General Ling, you can see it too. The Demon Clan clearly went south; they didn’t head for any Sitting and Forgetting Valley.”

Cao Meng observed the battle remnants and said in a deep voice.

”It’s just the Demon Emperor experts heading south. I suspect the Demon Clan’s destination hasn’t changed.”

Ling Feng said lightly, ”Let’s not waste time and continue to the Sitting and Forgetting Valley.”

”Yes!”

Cao Meng shrugged, thinking to himself that this guy wouldn’t give up until he hit a dead end. Does he still believe something secret is hidden in the Sitting and Forgetting Valley?

The group hurried on, quickly reaching Luohai City, but Ling Feng did not immediately set off for the Sitting and Forgetting Valley. Instead, he instructed Cao Meng and the others to wait at the north gate, while he went to the inn where he met Jiang Biyi and the others previously.

After inquiring with the innkeeper, he learned that Jiang Biyi and Yee Xingnan had already left, and seemingly accompanied by a middle-aged man. Based on the innkeeper’s description, Ling Feng could conclude that this middle-aged man was definitely Housekeeper Wei, Wei Wuyan.

And the arrival of Wei Wuyan made Ling Feng even more certain that a great fortune was hidden in the Sitting and Forgetting Valley, not far from Luohai City!
