Chapter 379: The Spirit of the Mountain

“What did Gongye Yuyu mean?” a bandit asked doubtfully.

“Don’t worry about it. He often talks nonsense like this. Just treat it as his fart.” Huang Nanshuang waved her hand, unbothered.

Now that the Central Plains Sect Alliance had inexplicably withdrawn from the fight for the mountain treasure, it was a good thing for Huang Nanshuang.

Gongye Yuyu was able to fight with Soaring Serpent to a draw, which was enough to show his outstanding talent.

Unfortunately, his cultivation was slightly inferior, so he was not able to kill the Soaring Serpent.

However, Huang Nanshuang was different. She was a cultivator from the Northern Plains, and no one knew her true strength. However, the only thing that could be confirmed was that she was different from the fake nascent soul realm elder who was killed by Soaring Serpent. She definitely stood out among a small group of peak nascent soul realm cultivators!

“So, Soaring Serpent, after fighting with Gongye Yuyu, is it my turn now?”

Huang Nanshuang chuckled, got off the horse, and pulled out the Yanling Blade at her waist.

“Huang Nanshuang, consider it a favor owed. Give me this mountain treasure, and I will definitely reward you greatly in the future!”

The Soaring Serpent stared at Huang Nanshuang with fear, and its huge pupils gradually returned to a dark green color.

It was very clear about its own strength. It probably would not have a problem to deal with an early-stage core formation cultivator, but when faced with an expert like Huang Nanshuang, any resistance would be futile.

“Back then, when I first came to the Hundred Thousand Mountain, the three of you caused me a lot of trouble.”

“It’s human nature. When a nascent soul realm cultivator comes to the Hundred Thousand Mountain, we can’t just sit back and do nothing.”

“That’s why it’s best to move people’s hearts with money. Since you want this mountain treasure, of course, I want it too. Either you bring the beast clan b*stards with you, or I’ll kill the three of you and leave with the mountain treasure.”

Huang Nanshuang was very confident in her own strength. Back then, when she had just arrived at the Hundred Thousand Mountain and was heavily injured, she was still able to deal with the attacks of the three beast kings.

Now, her strength had risen to a whole new level. The reason why she still stayed here to talk nonsense with the Soaring Serpent was because she did not want to break this balance.

“The mountain treasure is useless to humans! It’s meaningless for you to take it. Huang Nanshuang, help me, and I will give you a reward that far exceeds the value of the mountain treasure!”

“I don’t need it. Even if I really need it, I will naturally take it.”

The smile on Huang Nanshuang’s face froze and was replaced by a killing intent.

“This is your final warning. Get lost or die!”

“The mountain treasure can not be given to the humans!”

The Soaring Serpent’s attitude was very firm. No matter what, the mountain treasure would not be willingly given away.

There was only one way to solve the problem.

Either Huang Nanshuang died here, or from now on, there would be no more beast kings in the Hundred Thousand Mountain!

“Beyond redemption.”

Huang Nanshuang laughed coldly, her sharp eyes filled with disdain.

She lightly flicked the Yanling Blade, and instantly, a powerful attack erupted from this area!

Just the blade intent alone was already this powerful, not to mention the fact that Huang Nanshuang had not even made a move yet!

“Giant Ape, Chief Wolf, why aren’t you making a move!”

Huang Nanshuang’s powerful strength made the Soaring Serpent not dare to face her alone, thus, it could only drag the other two beast kings into the water!

“Soaring Serpent, the three of us might not be her match, how about…” the giant ape thought for a long time and probed.

“No! If the mountain treasure is given to them, we will never be able to rise again! Have you forgotten about your hatred?”

The Soaring Serpent shouted loudly, its voice so loud that it was deafening, causing the Giant Ape and the Chief Wolf to freeze on the spot.

“With just the three of us… How can we charge up the Great Snow Mountain?

“Moreover, so many years have passed, perhaps master has already…”

“Shut up! Master is the last true phoenix in the world, master will never die!”

As his voice spread out, not far away, Victor stood rooted to the spot, unable to move.

‘Master? True phoenix? Great Snow Mountain?’

These familiar words were arranged together, making Victor realize an unbelievable fact!

These three demon kings in front of him might be Senior Feng Jiu’s subordinates!

Impossible… How could this be possible? Senior Feng Jiu had been sealed for so long, how could it be so coincidental for him to have met his subordinates here?

However, true phoenix, Great Snow Mountain, weren’t all these things proving Victor’s conjecture?

“If this is really the case… I can’t just watch Huang Nanshuang kill the demon beasts…”

Victor’s brows were tightly knitted as his stare was fixed on Huang Nanshuang’s figure. His brain was spinning rapidly as he tried to find a solution to the problem.

There wasn’t one.

Just like what Victor had said, all schemes and tactics were not worth mentioning in front of absolute strength.

Victor could be the king of his current realm, but this did not mean that he had the qualifications to face Huang Nanshuang who was at the peak of the nascent soul realm!

However, just as Victor was puzzled, the situation suddenly changed.

“You… are Feng Jiu’s demon generals?”

“You know my master?”

The Soaring Serpent looked at Huang Nanshuang, its tone filled with disbelief.

“I’m a cultivator of the Northern Plains, so I’ve naturally heard about Feng Jiu. He led hundreds of thousands of demons to attack the Great Snow Mountain, but he was overconfident and was cut off by the Great Snow Mountain. In the end, his soul was suppressed. Most of the demon generals under him were also wiped out.”

“Shut up! How dare you humiliate my master?”

When Feng Jiu was brought, the Soaring Serpent was extremely agitated. Its hysterical appearance made the other two beast kings very worried.

“Humiliate? Hehe, no, it’s the exact opposite. I admire him very much, but it’s unfortunate that he was born at the wrong time. Otherwise, I would definitely become his brother and attack the Great Snow Mountain together with him.”

Huang Nanshuang laughed lightly and sheathed her saber. She stood with her hands behind her back and said, “What does Feng Jiu have to do with you wanting to get the mountain treasure?”

“This has nothing to do with you.”

“Of course it has something to do with me. If you can convince me, perhaps I can give the mountain treasure to you.”

Huang Nanshuang shrugged her shoulders. She was completely different from when she displayed her sharpness before.

“Huang Nanshuang, what you said, is it true?”

“It’s absolutely true!”

“Alright, I’ll believe you this time…”

The Soaring Serpent thought for a long time and finally said the reason.

There was no other way. The three of them combined were not Huang Nanshuang’s match. If they fought head-on, it would either be their death or hers.

“Our master’s self-created Small World has been snatched away by others. Either it will be refined by those old fogies, or our master has found a successor that he can only entrust the Small World to.

“If it’s the former, the three of us will refine the mountain treasure and find the person who refined my lord’s Small World and risk our lives. If it’s the latter, the three of us will give the mountain treasure to him to increase our strength.

“Alright, I’ve already said the reason. Now it’s your choice, Huang Nanshuang.”

“Feng Jiu’s successor? I don’t think it’s too realistic.

“If I remember correctly, Feng Jiu was killed in the Eastern Plains in the end. That’s the Eastern Plains, the publicly acknowledged abandoned land of immortals. Therefore, I advise all of you to give up on this idea.”

“Abandoned land of immortals? Hehe, you people from the Northern Plains are really all the same. You aren’t even aware when you’ve become someone else’s dog!”
