The Great Wild God - Chapter 473
Chapter 473 Chips
“Hahaha …”
Jiang Nanke couldn’t help but laugh loudly, shaking the golden copper roof of the hall to the point that it was about to fly away. Daoist Wu Yi was sitting there. Mu Ruo was dumbfounded. Even though the news had been confirmed repeatedly, he still found it hard to believe that Lord Crimson Brow was actually trapped by Chen Xun and the others in Qingwu Ridge.
No matter how destitute Lord Crimson Brow was, he was truly lonely. There was no powerful sect power behind him, but he was actually at the peak of the early Heavenly Human Realm. Did he die in Qingwu Ridge just like that?
The two sect elders of the Tian Clan who entered the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm this time had peak Dharma Aspect Realm cultivations, yet they were actually unable to escape from the Qingwu Ridge?
How was this possible?
If the six Dharma Aspect experts of the four sects of Mountain Parasol were all in the Heavenly Furnace, Daoist Wu Yi would still believe that Chen Xun and the others had the possibility of trapping Lord Crimson Brow, but Crimson Pine Child, Ji Lie, Gu Wentian, Hu Taiyan, Zhao Chengen, Gu Xinyue, and the others were all in Azure Water.
Could it be that Chang Xi, who had been missing for so many years, had already secretly sneaked into the Heavenly Furnace?
Chang Xi was a reincarnated immortal body. Although she had just entered the Dharma Aspect Realm, her cultivation couldn’t be measured by her normal state. It was possible that she already possessed peak Dharma Aspect Realm combat strength. However, even so, the combat strength Chen Xun possessed at the Qingwu Ridge wouldn’t cause a Celestial Realm expert to die unknowingly!
What was going on with the Flamewing Monster Ape?
How could the Fire Winged Monster Ape, which the various sects had worked so hard to capture, join forces with the disciples of Mountain Parasol to kill Lord Crimson Brow?
At this moment, Daoist Wu Yi and the others lacked too many details. They were completely unable to imagine the dangers and evils of the Battle of Qingwu Ridge.
Ge Tong and Wei Yuan were still able to suppress their emotions after sitting in the Azure Jade Longevity Case, but their hearts were also filled with waves that were difficult to calm down.
They had been secretly operating the Heavenly Furnace Secret Land for five years in order to obtain the benefits of giving birth to the Primordial Breath of Primordial Chaos after the Great Change. In fact, they had offended many people.
This time, the Spring Mausoleum Lord led the Spirit Heaven Army into the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm, and Jiang Mingtai and the others tacitly agreed to redeploy the Divine Guards Army back to Cloud Continent. The other 36 God Generals directly sent out quite a few experts to follow Jiang Chunling into the Heavenly Furnace to get a share.
Everyone’s anger is hard to offend.
They were also helpless for a moment. They could only wait for King Qing to negotiate with Jiang Mingtai and the others, or directly bring the matter to Emperor Xi Wu, and wait for him to make the final decision.
This was also what he had expected back then.
Even if half of the Heavenly Fire Mountain Range was given away, it would still be an acceptable result for them.
However, such an outcome might not satisfy Chun Lingjun and the others.
At this moment, the direct descendants of the Jiang Imperial Clan and the Thirty-Six Divine Generals were practically related by marriage. They formed the core force that ruled Cloud Continent and controlled the seven sects. They were all involved in everything.
In the Qing Dynasty, only the Su Clan and the Wei Clan belonged to the descendants of the Thirty-Six Divine Generals. Daoist Wu Yi came from a clan of the Wu Clan, so how much weaker was his status?
Even Su Muchen, the Su Clan that Su Junchen came from, was ranked at the bottom of the 36 Divine General Sect descendants.
The Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm was capable of giving birth to Primordial Chaos. It was mainly concentrated in the Heavenly Fire Mountain Range. The Qing King Clan involved less than a tenth of the 36 God Generals’ descendants, but they had to carve away half of the Heavenly Fire Mountain Range. Not to mention the Spring Mausoleum Monarch, Jiang Mingtai and the other old foxes hiding behind the scenes, as well as the other 36 God Generals’ descendants, were unwilling.
After the Spring Mausoleum Lord led his troops into the Heavenly Furnace, word spread through the two families that three of the sixteen mountains of the Heavenly Flame Mountain Range could be preserved in King of Qing, and the rest would be divided equally among the other families.
Such a condition was far from what they had originally imagined. Of course, they couldn’t give in so easily.
Ge Tong and Wei Yuan weren’t afraid that Spring Mausoleum Lord would dare to openly slaughter the generals of the Divine Guards, but they knew that if the situation continued to drag on, it would be extremely disadvantageous to them.
The spatial passageway into and out of the Heavenly Furnace was controlled by the Spring Mausoleum Monarch. The Spirit Heaven Army sent out dozens of Armored Soldiers like nets, advancing towards the fortresses built by the various clans in the Heavenly Volcano. The other 36 God Generals sent out large numbers of experts to stir up waves.
Chun Lingjun didn’t dare to do anything to Jiang Nanke and the disciples of the Su and Wei clans, but the other small and medium-sized clans that belonged to King of Qing might not necessarily be regarded by Chun Lingjun and the other 36 Divine General Sect descendants.
Ge Tong, Wei Yuan, and the others could predict that conflict was inevitable.
The direct descendants of the Jiang Imperial Clan and the Thirty-Six Divine Generals would not be directly involved in the bloody slaughter, but in order to compete for all kinds of resources, they secretly supported the subordinate clans and sects in open and secret battles. Over the years, many people had died because of this.
When Ge Tong and Wei Yuan were worried that the situation of the Heavenly Volcano would develop in a direction that was extremely unfavorable to them, they never expected Lord Crimson Brow to die in Qingwu Ridge. Even the Tian Clan had two sect elders, and fifteen Origin Core Adepts were trapped inside and unable to come out.
“Jiang Jun, what’s your reaction?” Jiang Nanke excitedly walked back to the Qingyu long table and sat down. He asked the general who specialized in gathering intelligence.
“Spring Mausoleum Lord is furious. I heard that Jiang Bin has been escorted to prison, but he secretly let Gu Yangzi and the others go.”
“Gu Yangzi has already left?” Jiang Nanke’s eyes were filled with killing intent. He patted the long table and sighed regretfully, “He actually let Gu Yangzi slip away!”
Regardless of how Jiang Junwen shirked his responsibility, Gu Yangzi directly participated in the attack on Qingwu Ridge. They had enough excuses to cut him off or kill him straightforwardly.
Who would have thought that Jiang Junwen would not be stupid enough to send Gu Yangzi out of the Heavenly Furnace at the first possible moment?
Unfortunately, the spatial passageways were all under the control of the Spirit Heaven Army. Otherwise, if they sent the news back to Cloud Continent, Father would be able to cut off Gu Yangzi.
Jiang Nanke patted the long table with great regret and asked, “Is there any other reaction over there?”
“The Spirit Heaven Army that scattered the Heavenly Flame Mountain Range earlier are all retreating back to Copper Furnace Fort. There are no special actions against Qingwu Ridge.”
“I’ll go to Qingwu Ridge and meet Chen Xun now.” Jiang Nanke said excitedly.
“Chun Lingjun’s actions should prevent us from making any moves,” Wu Yizhen said. “I’m afraid that Chun Lingjun’s side won’t be able to understand the truth of Qingwu Ridge and won’t act rashly again.”
“No, Jiang Jun asked. As long as there was a chance, he would definitely want to kill Chen Xun. At this moment, Qingwu Ridge must not be allowed to make any further mistakes,” Jiang Nanke said firmly. “As long as Qingwu Ridge is here, the other clans will not act rashly with the lessons of Lord Crimson Brow and the Tian Clan.”
Daoist Wu Yi secretly felt that the Crown Prince’s trip to Qingwu Ridge was somewhat risky. He looked at Wei Yuan and Ge Tong.
Ge Tong said, “I will follow the Crown Prince to Qingwu Ridge. Everything in Copper Furnace Fort will depend on Daoist Wu Yi and General Wei. The news of Lord Crimson Brow’s death spread back to Yunzhou. I believe that the other three Prefecture Lords will not be able to remain silent any longer. Nothing will happen again during this period of time.”
As long as they were able to defend the sixteen mountains, when the other three Prefecture Lords had no choice but to intervene in this matter, they would have the initiative. They wouldn’t even have to give up half of the Heavenly Fire Mountain Range.
Wei Yuan nodded and said, “If the Spring Mausoleum Monarch were to attack the Qingwu Ridge, Chen Xun would probably be forced to withdraw from the Qingwu Ridge. At this moment, the Qingwu Ridge is extremely symbolic and cannot fall into the hands of the Spring Mausoleum Monarch.”
Seeing Wei Yuan and Ge Tong agree that the Crown Prince should go to Qingwu Ridge at this time, Daoist Wu Yi said, “There shouldn’t be any accidents on Copper Furnace Ridge. I will also go to Qingwu Ridge.”
************************
The trap of Lord Crimson Brow was extremely clever and exquisite. It could also be said to be extremely dangerous.
If the Spring Mausoleum Monarch revolted with lightning and led his army to point his sword at the Qingwu Ridge, Chen Xun would have no other choice but to lead his 4,000 disciples to withdraw.
Chen Xun was already prepared to withdraw from Qingwu Ridge at any time. He hadn’t expected Jiang Nanke to be able to decisively lead the eight thousand soldiers and rush to Qingwu Ridge first to meet them.
Chen Xun immediately welcomed Jiang Nanke into the three city walls at the southern foot of Qingwu Ridge.
Jiang Nanke, Adept Wu Yi, and Ge Tong were also most concerned about the details of Chen Xun joining forces with the Fire Winged Monster Ape to kill Lord Crimson Brow, so Chen Xun directly brought them to the cliff valley where Lord Crimson Brow was trapped.
The valley collapsed, leaving behind a deep pit that was ten thousand feet in radius. The rubble was repeatedly melted and solidified by the Red Lotus Flame Sea, forming an extremely strange situation at the bottom of the pit.
After the Spirit Heavenly Army withdrew from the Heavenly Furnace, Elder Firewing sneaked back to the Heavenly Volcano. At first, I didn’t notice anything. On the other hand, my subordinates, the Firewing Elders, ran around the mountains and fields. They had encountered Elder Firewing several times, but they were safe and sound. Elder Huoyi transformed into a disciple of Mount Wushan and sneaked into Qingwu Ridge for a period of time. At that time, I was aware of it, but I discovered that he secretly learned my Wu Mountain’s secret technique, so I didn’t break it. I had time to read some Dao Books that could refine demons and ask him to eavesdrop. I didn’t waste any effort to persuade him to become the guardian elder of my Kui Dragon Pavilion. ” Chen Xunjiu truthfully told Jiang Nanke and the others about what had happened with the Fire Winged Monster Ape in the past two years.
Daoist Wu Yi, Ge Tong, and Jiang Nanke did not think that it was fake. After all, the Fire-Winged Demonic Ape Bird did not even care about their bird-like appearance. It was definitely not the appearance of its soul being subdued after being restrained.
Chen Xun also felt that he was truly bold. Without subduing such a monster completely, it would be as easy as turning his palm to destroy Mountain Parasol from the inside one day.
Jiang Nanke still wanted to come into close contact with the Fire-Winged Monster Ape. Daoist Wu Yi and Ge Tong didn’t dare to take this risk. They thought to themselves, the reason why the Fire-Winged Monster Ape was willing to help Chen Xunfu kill Lord Crimson Brow was probably because Lord Crimson Brow had chased him down miserably two years ago, right?
Such a monster was wild and difficult to tame, so its mind and eyes must be extremely small.
Only the helpless Chen Xun would collude with the demonic ape, right?
Chen Xun pointed to the several huge grottoes behind Meridian Peak and said, “The nine thousand or so Spirit Heaven Army soldiers are all imprisoned there. They claim to have been bewitched by Lord Crimson Brow, Jiang Bin, and the other thieves and did not participate in the assassination. I am unable to tell what is going on, so I can only leave it to the Crown Prince to deal with.”
Jiang Nanke nodded and said, “The Spirit Heaven Army is the same as the Divine Guards. Most of the generals and armored soldiers are descendants of the 36 God Generals and their affiliated clans and clans. The fact that they can surrender at the entrance of the canyon means that they should be bewitched by thieves. We will not make things difficult for them, but we will wait for Jiang Jun to ask them to come and lead them away.”
Chen Xun smiled comprehensively. There were some things that were most suitable for Prince Qing’s Mansion to come forward directly, but the two Tian Clan Sect Elders were two fat sheep. He wanted to keep them in his hands and exchange them for a few Heaven Ranked magic treasures for Mountain Parasol.
