“Report...”

If the Monster Kings in the Heaven Dao Pavilion had a teacup in their hands, the teacup would have been broken. Similarly, if there was an egg, the egg would also have been cracked.

2000 over Meng Tians charging from all directions?

‘What on earth!’

“Fake, they must be fake!” said one of the Demon Generals.

“Rubbish, of course, I know that they are fake!” The Monster King was extremely annoyed. How could 2000 over Meng Tians all be real?

This was self-explanatory. However, the problem was, why did so many Meng Tians appear and what were their motives?

“Send my order, prepare to battle!” The Monster King commanded even though he did not know what exactly these Meng Tian wanted.

“Roger!”

“I want to see how powerful these fake Meng Tians are!” The Monster King looked furious and radiance seemed to appear from the scales on his body.

“But Sir, Young Lord’s instructions...” The Demon General seemed worried.

“Of course I would obey the orders given to us and not be rash if there were only a couple of fake Meng Tians. However, how could I possibly do nothing if there are so many of them?” The Monster King raged.

“But...”

“Stop talking rubbish, inform Sir Demon Deity now. As long as he is here, he can kill all these fake Meng Tians!” The Monster King waved his hand as the red light flashed in his eyes.

“Understood, I will do it now!” The Demon General clenched his teeth. Although he was slightly worried, that was the only feasible move now.

After all, like what the Monster King said, although the Young Lord had instructed for them to not be rash if they encountered Meng Tian, they had to do something when over 2000 Meng Tians appeared at the same time.

If they retreated, they would lose the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

Judging from the current situation, they could not afford to lose the Heaven Dao Pavilion. They had to guard it until noon.

That was because Young Lord would reach the Heaven Dao Pavilion at noon, hence how could they retreat now?

Impossible!

Since they could not retreat, the only way was for them to guard it with their lives.

Fortunately, a legend was spread in the Holy Region a few days ago and following that, a Godly State Demon reached the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

If the Godly State expert was there, what should they be afraid of?

The Demon General did not say anything else. Afraid to stay on, he turned and ran towards the most luxurious place in the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

...

The Heaven Dao Pavilion was surrounded by mountains on three sides. One of them was facing a cliff, a dangerous place.

However, any dangerous place could be invaded, especially by Mu Qingfeng and the disciples of the Heaven Dao Pavilion who were familiar with the geography of the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

Therefore, the so-called “surrounded by mountains on three sides”...

Was merely an arrangement!

However, since the Monster Race and Demon Race invaded the Heaven Dao Pavilion, they had made some adjustments to the traps in order to prevent humankind from attacking suddenly from the mountain behind.

The night was dark.

However, the fire lit up the Heaven Dao Pavilion well enough for everything to be seen clearly. The Demon General left very quickly and reached the door of the luxurious side of the palace.

“Report, Sir Demon Deity!” The Demon General did not enter but stood carefully outside the door and shouted.

“Is the Young Lord here?” A low voice was heard from the room.

“No, Young Lord will only arrive at noon.”

“Didn’t I say before, do not disturb me if Young Lord is not here yet? Do you... not understand?” The voice was heard again but this time, it had a tone of killing intent.

The Demon General began to sweat and his legs were like jelly. However, he still bit his lips and said, “There’s something urgent that requires Sir Demon Deity’s help.”

“Scram!”

“Sir Demon Deity, there is really...”

Boom! The luxurious stone door broke open and a figure dashed out of the room, strangling the Demon General with one hand.

“Mmm mmm...” The Demon General’s body trembled violently and his face turned completely pale as he struggled and kicked his leg in the sky.

“I give you one chance, tell me what happened. If you don’t give me a satisfying response, you know the consequences.” After speaking, the figure released his grip and the Demon General fell to the ground.

When he fell, he knelt down immediately, trembling vigorously as the sweat on his forehead dripped down on the ground like rain.

“Sir Demon Deity, it’s... Meng Tian is here, Sagely Battle God Meng Tian...”

“Meng Tian?! Hmm, continue!” A cold gaze flashed across the figure’s eyes.

“Over 2000 Meng... Meng Tians are approaching from all directions and they are reaching the Heaven Dao Pavilion soon. We... we don’t know what to do, we hope Sir Demon Deity...”

“Over 2000 Meng Tians?”

“Yes, yes!”

“A bunch of useless shit!” The figure raised his arm and slapped down. Bam! The Demon General’s head was slammed on the floor and he stopped making any noise.

A pool of blood was formed beneath his legs. Under the reflection of the moonlight, a scar that looked like a cross appeared on his forehead.

The expression on the face could not be seen clearly as everything looked like water. However, instead of pure water, it was water mixed with blood.

Especially the scar that looked like a cross on his forehead.

The scar was a diagonal scar that crossed with another red scar on the forehead, forming a terrifying cross.

“Sir Demon Deity!” The surrounding Demon soldiers fell to their knees after seeing how the Demon General collapsed to the ground.

“Hahaha...” The figure laughed wildly as he stepped on the corpse of the Demon General.

Bam!

Crack...

Sounds of bone cracking were heard and soon after, the body of the Demon General sank completely into the ground and all that was left was a pool of water mixed with blood.

The Godly State expert!

Nobody ever heard of this phrase in hundreds of years. However, in the past five months, this phrase represented an incredible power.

Of course, the power included all types of faces and personality.

Nobody knew how the ancient battlefield looked like. However, everyone was certain that the Monsters and Demons who managed to survive in the ancient battlefield...

Were definitely powerful.

Apart from their capabilities, they also had an extraordinary character.

Chou Qi!

This name was somewhat strange and nobody knew if it was an alias or his real name as all the Godly State experts called him Chou Qi.

Moreover, none of the Godly State experts were willing to team up with Chou Qi or even get close to him.

Then, Yun Qingwu gave an order to pass a black chess pawn to Chou Qi.

Black represented darkness!

However, not all the Monsters and Demons knew what the darkness represented. However, they could notice something for sure.

After Chou Qi arrived, he rarely made appearances and did not get involved with the events in the Holy Region. He was the one who decided where to go.

Now, Chou Qi had arrived at the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

Nobody knew the reason for that. It could be because Chou Qi was ordered by Yun Qingwu, or perhaps it was just his own decision.

However, what took place in front of everyone’s eyes made the surrounding Demon soldiers shudder. The laughter from Chou Qi especially made them feel as though they were about to die.

The killer aura exuded from Chou Qi was too strong. In fact, it felt more like the aura of death.

Swoosh! Following a sound, Chou Qi vanished into thin air and all was left were the Demon soldiers kneeling on the ground.

“Demon... Where did Sir Demon Deity go to?”

“I don’t know?”

“What do we do now? Sir Demon Deity had disappeared, how do we explain to Sir Monster King?”

“...”

The Demon soldiers stared at each other, horrified as they did not know how to respond to the order.

They did not even know whether Chou Qi went to murder or simply just left.

...

At the lake at the foot of the mountain of the Heaven Dao Pavilion...

This was where Fang Zhengzhi was killed by the three Sages of the Black Moon Island of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain. It was also the place where Yan Xiu became a Fallen Asura because he was overly infuriated.

With a black face cloth on his face, Fang Zhengzhi stood silently beside the lake, at the spot beside the green stone where Yan Xiu once waited for him and looked at the reflection of the full moon in the water.

“Shameless brat, what are you thinking about?” Ping Yang disrupted Fang Zhengzhi’s train of thought. Then, she pointed at the flickering light from fire torches behind them and asked, “Did you send all those ‘Meng Tians’?”

“Kind of.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded his head lightly, sat on the green stone and lied down.

Seeing this, Ping Yang got on to the green stone too, her eyes clearer than the water on the river.

“What are you trying to do by sending so many ‘Meng Tians’?” Ping Yang looked far away before sticking her head in front of Fang Zhengzhi.

“Make a guess?”

“How... how am I supposed to guess? Oh, I know, are you trying to get into the Black Stone Palace at the foot of the mountain when everyone is dressed as ‘Meng Tian’?”

“Unfortunately, that’s wrong, you owe me 10,000 ounces of gold!”

“10,000 ounces of gold? Since when did I bet with you?”

“So do you want to know?”

“Haha, I don’t, because I can go and take a look myself!” Ping Yang leaped from the green stone after she spoke and sprang towards the foot of the mountain of the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

“...” Fang Zhengzhi could not react to this. When he finally regained his senses, Ping Yang had already vanished. “Eh? Since when did Ping Yang become so smart? She used to be so bad at this. I... F*ck, oh no, it’s dangerous ahead!”

...

Three miles away from the Heaven Dao Pavilion...

The formidable troop of Meng Tian was approaching the foot of the mountain of the Heaven Dao Pavilion at an alarming speed. Furthermore, there were other similar troops approaching from all directions.

“Sect Leader Wu, do we attack straightaway?” Seeing how they were approaching the Heaven Dao Pavilion, Mo Shanshi asked impatiently.

After all, he had held in for five months.

“Oh right, Sagely Battle God passed me a few kits when he met me and told me to open the first one when I’m at the foot of the mountain of the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

“Then what are you waiting for? Open it now!” said Mo Shanshi.

The other sect leaders also looked at Wu Yuer, waiting eagerly to see what was in the kit.

Soon, Wu Yuer took out a black kit and opened it, revealing a note written on fabric.

She glanced through it and her expression changed.

“What is written on it?” Mo Shanshi asked again.

“Sagely Battle God told us to identify all the Sages, form four groups of twenty people each and spring a sudden attack on the Heaven Dao Pavilion from four different directions.

“Sudden attack? Our trace had already been exposed by making our way here. How are we going to spring a sudden attack?” Mo Shanshi was confused.

“What he meant was... the Sages will lead the sudden attack while the other disciples hold on,” explained Wu Yuer immediately as she knew that Mo Shanshi had misunderstood.

“Hold on?”

“Yes, hold on. Senior Meng Tian had also specially instructed for the four troops to retreat immediately after they killed one Monster King or one of the commanders of the Demon Race.

“Retreat? Are we not fighting?!”

“That’s what he meant.”

“What on earth is Sagely Battle God doing? Isn’t he fooling around?!” Mo Shanshi could not take it further.

“Old man Mo, let Sect Leader Wu finish talking.” Mu Qingfeng smiled bitterly after hearing their conversation.

“Alright, Sect Leader Wu please tell us, what else is writing on the note? He can’t possibly make us come all the way just to kill one Monster King?”

“Valley Master Mo, you misunderstood Senior Meng Tian. What he meant was, we can successfully enter the Black Stone Palace after we kill the Monster King.”

“Enter after we kill the Monster King?! What if we meet Godly State experts? Also, I heard that Yun Qingwu would arrive at noon, what do we do then?”

“Senior Meng Tian said he has his own ways to deal with it!”

“This... why do I feel like this is a trap?” Mo Shanshi narrowed his eyes as he felt that something was wrong.

The other sect leaders also looked at each other and could not understand what was the purpose of the kit that Sagely Battle God Meng Tian gave them.
