Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 1044
Chapter 1044 Army Encirclement And Suppression
The Snow Wind Battle Wolves were originally standing there preparing to leave, but when they heard Jiang Feng’s shout, they were immediately shocked.
Although these Snow Wind Battle Wolves were only rank eight desolate beasts, they still had at least the ability to distinguish between them.
After all, they had witnessed with their own eyes how Jiang Feng had traveled through the flames of the earth’s core, and how he had killed thousands of Desolate race beings with just one person’s strength.
A few Snow Wind War Wolves hesitated for a moment and immediately ran to Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng reached out and touched one of the Snow Wind War Wolves’ heads. Then, he said to them, “Be obedient. I guarantee that you will immediately have meat to eat. Otherwise, the only thing waiting for you will be death.”
After Jiang Feng finished speaking, he directly rode on the Snow Wind War Wolf’s back. Then, he shouted to Su Tianqi and the others, “Hurry up! We have to leave this Heavenly Human Forbidden Land quickly. Otherwise, the Desolate race will probably send out a large army to encircle us.”
“Alright!”
Su Tianqi and the others each picked a Snow Wind War Wolf and mounted it. Jiang Feng chose to head east, then forcefully pinched the wolf’s belly and shouted, “Run!”
…
The largest oasis in the Desolate Northern Desert Plains is called the Desolate Northern Emperor Plains.
Looking at this name, it was not difficult to guess that the Desolate race’s royal family basically lived in this oasis.
In the center of the Northern Desolate Imperial Court, there was a city called “Wangnan City”. The area of Wangnan City was very wide, and the walls of the city were thick. It looked very imposing and ancient.
This city was the same as the Heavenly Capital of the Heavenly Dynasty, the capital of the Desolate race.
Although Wangnan City will soon be bustling with prosperity, its defenses must be stronger than Tiandu’s. Even the “Nan Imperial Court” in the city was perfectly constructed.
The Southern surname was unique in the Desolate Northern Desert, and only the royal family of the Desolate Northern Desert was qualified to own it.
Perhaps some people would feel that the Desolate race’s construction of such a perfect defensive fortification in the capital city seemed to be a bit afraid of death.
But in reality, this was precisely the symbol of the Desolate race’s strength.
This showed that the Desolate race was ready to lose all their territories and fight the enemy to the death in the capital.
It was precisely because of this determination that the Desolate race dared to continuously harass the border of the Heavenly Dynasty and invade the waters of the Aquatic Race.
It was late at night. The Nan Imperial Court was currently under curfew. The entire Imperial Court was extremely quiet. Only the footsteps of the guards patrolling back and forth and the bug cries from within the Imperial Court could be heard from time to time.
However, not long after, a furious roar came from the Central Palace of the Nan Imperial Court. The roar was filled with deep sorrow and endless anger.
“Xiuyuan!”
Nan Xiuyuan, the Desolate race’s second prince’s name.
Ever since Crown Prince Nan Xiuqi’s death, the nine patriarchs of the Desolate race had supported Second Prince Nan Xiuyuan’s succession to the Crown Prince position. However, Nan Xiuqi’s mourning period hadn’t reached a thousand years, which was why Nan Xiuyuan hadn’t been crowned the Crown Prince.
Now that someone in the Central Palace called the Second Prince by his name, it was obvious that he was the emperor of the Northern Desolate Imperial Clan, Nan Zhengtian.
Not long after, the royal edict was issued, and the Desolate race’s nine patriarchs were urgently recruited into the Nan Imperial Court.
In the Central Palace, where the Nan Imperial Court was dedicated to discussing matters, Nan Zhengtian announced a shocking news. This news was that the Second Prince, Nan Xiuyuan, had been killed, and the eight thousand soldiers and horses he had brought to the Forbidden Land of Heaven and Man had also been completely annihilated.
After announcing this news, Nan Zhengtian gritted his teeth and ordered angrily, “From now on, each of the nine great clans will send ten thousand troops into the Forbidden Land of Celestials.”
“Find the murderer of my son for this sovereign. This sovereign will let him be roasted by the Prison Fire for eternity. He will not be able to surpass his life and will not be freed!”
“Yes!” The patriarchs of the nine great clans all agreed to the order, and then went back to arrange their own troops.
…
The Desolate race was the race that had the most friction with the Heavenly Dynasty, so their every move was naturally monitored by the Heavenly Dynasty’s scouts.
Now that the Desolate race had dispatched 90,000 troops to the Heavenly Human Forbidden Land, the scouts of the Heavenly Dynasty naturally started to get busy.
All sorts of information was sent to the Heavenly Dynasty through all sorts of channels, and then all of this information finally gathered in the hands of Emperor Wen and Martial Sage.
At the same time, Emperor Wen and the Martial Sage met again in the Heavenly Palace. This time, the two of them were no longer interested in drinking and chatting. As soon as they met, they began to talk about Nan Xiuyuan’s murder and the annihilation of Desolate race’s 8,000 troops.
Emperor Wen said, “Judging from the information I have received, there are indeed quite a few people from the Heavenly Kingdom who have gone to the Heavenly Mortal Forbidden Land.”
However, the Heavenly Dynasty itself did not have any particularly powerful external experts. Those who went to the Heavenly Mortal Forbidden Land should not dare to enter the Heavenly Mortal Forbidden Land at will. Otherwise, just the desolate beasts in the Heavenly Mortal Forbidden Land would be enough to kill them.
Not to mention that they also wanted to kill Desolate race’s second prince, Nan Xiuyuan, and annihilate the Desolate race’s eight thousand troops. ”
“Could it be a sage? If it was a peak Half-Sage expert, it would be very easy to kill Nan Xiuyuan and annihilate the eight thousand Desolate race troops.” Martial Sage guessed.
However, just as Martial Sage finished speaking, he discovered that Emperor Wen was looking at him with an idiotic gaze.
Martial Sage was immediately enraged, “Bookworm, what do you mean by this gaze? Believe it or not, I’ll dig out your eyeballs!”
“What do you think my eyes mean? Then what do I mean? If a sage attacked, would he be killed by Nan Xiuyuan’s bloodline curse? Don’t just think about cultivating for a day, can you use your brain even if nothing happens?”
“You …”
Wu Shengyu was confused because he had to admit that Emperor Wen’s words made sense this time.
However, Emperor Wen’s words still made Martial Sage think of another possibility. When Martial Sage thought of this possibility, he knew that Emperor Wen must have thought of it as well.
Martial Sage looked at Emperor Wen in shock and asked, “Do you think that’s possible?”
Martial Sage’s headless question sounded somewhat groundless, but Emperor Wen nodded and said with a serious expression, “At least so far, I have not thought of any other possibilities.”
“If it’s true, then I’ll personally bring the Holy Martial Disciples into the forbidden area of the Celestial Realm and make sure to preserve the human race that has absorbed the innate Saint Grade Spirit Root!”
That’s right, Emperor Wen and Martial Sage had already guessed it. It must have been Nan Xiuyuan and the others who discovered the human race when they absorbed the Sacred Grade Innate Spirit Root. After that, the human race that absorbed the Sacred Grade Innate Spirit Root used the power contained in the Innate Spirit Root to kill Nan Xiuyuan and annihilate the 8,000 troops of Desolate race.
Although the speculations of Emperor Wen and Martial Sage were somewhat different from the truth, they had clearly guessed the most important thing.
That was because the human race had absorbed the innate Sacred Grade Spirit Root.
As Martial Sage spoke, he stood up. Emperor Wen looked at him and shook his head. “Don’t be impulsive. The two of us can’t interfere in the world of great strife. If you personally enter the Forbidden Land of Heaven and Man, there will definitely be a lot of trouble behind you.”
We might as well just wait and see. Those who can absorb the innate Saint Grade Spirit Root will definitely have great opportunities and great luck. I believe that without our help, he would still be able to survive. ”
“If you say those words, it means that you didn’t say anything.” Martial Sage rolled his eyes at Emperor Wen.
In the Forbidden Land of Heaven and Man, Jiang Feng had already absorbed the innate Saint grade Spirit Root for two days.
During these two days, Jiang Feng and the other six had been riding the Snow Wind War Wolf without stopping, and they had been running frantically towards the east.
However, no matter how fast Jiang Feng and the others ran, they still couldn’t avoid the fate of being caught up by the Desolate race army.
After all, the Desolate race was divided into three groups, and their area was directly divided into three parts, chasing after Jiang Feng.
Moreover, Jiang Feng and the others all had bloodline curse marks on their bodies. This mark would only dissipate in ten days. In these ten days, Jiang Feng and the others were as conspicuous to the Desolate race as six fireflies in the dark.
In the sky, a palm-sized arrow-beaked sparrow charged straight towards Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng, who was riding the Snow Wind War Wolf, reached out to catch the Arrow-beaked Sparrow. The Arrow-beaked Sparrow stopped in Jiang Feng’s palm. After Jiang Feng took a piece of meat from his storage ring and gave it to the Arrow-beaked Sparrow to eat, the Arrow-beaked Sparrow began to chirp.
Jiang Feng listened attentively. Finally, he nodded and gently pushed the arrow-beaked bird away with his right hand.
“Stop! Stop!”
Jiang Feng shouted twice and stopped the Snow Wind Battle Wolf beneath him.
Immediately after, Su Tianqi, Fu Xiaofeng, and the others also stopped.
When the five of them gathered beside Jiang Feng, Su Tianqi asked, “Is the person chasing us about to catch up?”
Jiang Feng shook his head. “It’s even worse than catching up. The other party has surrounded us from four directions. If we continue to run forward, we will fall into a trap.”
“Is there any good way?” Su Tianqi asked.
Jiang Feng shook his head and directly got off the wolf’s back. He sat cross-legged on the ground and said, “Help me protect the Dharma. I’ll start to think of a way now.”
“Is this okay?”
Su Tianqi and the others were dumbfounded. However, out of their trust in Jiang Feng, they formed a circle to protect him.
After Jiang Feng closed his eyes, his divine sense directly entered the Nine Firmaments Exquisite Pagoda. He let go of all distracting thoughts and began to think about the type of soul crystal he hoped to obtain in the Nine Firmaments Exquisite Pagoda.
Soon, Jiang Feng discovered that a soul crystal was only a foot away. He didn’t know if this soul crystal was what he wanted, so he wrapped it around it with his divine sense and took it out of the Nine Firmaments Exquisite Pagoda.
The process of absorbing the soul crystal was the same as before. However, Jiang Feng did not suffer any injuries this time because the soul crystal did not contain much soul power.
Jiang Feng didn’t put too much energy into increasing or decreasing his soul power. He began to carefully read the memories contained within the soul crystal.
After Jiang Feng roughly looked through it, his heart instantly became excited. The skill memory attached to this soul crystal was exactly what he needed right now.
Jiang Feng restrained his mind and began to read the skill in detail.
Just as Jiang Feng was about to finish reading, the sound of hooves rumbling could be heard from all directions.
The ground in the desert began to tremble slightly. Su Tianqi couldn’t help but hold Su Xiaosu’s hand and said, “Xiaosu, if you have the chance, just ignore me and run away with all your might. But if you can’t escape, don’t blame me. I will personally kill you and avoid you suffering less.”
