Chapter 299 - 299: Violent Winds Before Torrential Rains



Looking at the three massive beasts before him, the aged figure gave a long sigh somewhat helplessly.

“Gentlemen, looks like we may have to perish here today!”

As the aged figure said this, he looked at the row of figures on his left and right.

When they heard the aged figure’s sigh, the other figures simply smiled faintly.

“We are the Venerable Elders of the Human Race and have vouched to be responsible for the safety of the Human Race. What’s wrong with dying while carrying out our duty?”

“That’s right. Since these despicable beasts from the Beast Race have arrived, they can forget about leaving the Demon-taming Pass alive!”

As the group of Flame Country’s powerful experts from the Human Race said this, they exchanged glances and laughed.

“Hahaha! Gentlemen, since we have decided, let us send these despicable beasts from the Beast Race to meet our Human Race’s forefathers!”

“I intend to do the same. Godammit! I couldn’t stand them a long time ago!”

As the aged figure finished speaking, the group of powerful experts ranked as the Venerable Elders of the Human Race rushed to slay those three massive beasts.

Attacked by so many Human Race’s powerful experts, the black massive tiger, that spiked savage bear and that green python on the verge of evolving into a flood dragon gathered together and launched their attacks at that group of Human Race’s powerful experts.

In this way, a large-scale war broke out on both sides, the first between the Human Race and the Beast Race in thousands of years!

Those three SSS-class Beast Race opponents did not seem to be at a disadvantage even though they were up against ten Human Race cultivators who had exceeded the War Demigod level.

Amongst the three, the black massive tiger ignored the risk of getting seriously injured by the numerous Human Race powerful experts and charged straight into the midst of the Human Race powerful experts. With one bite, it tore off the arm of one of the Human Race powerful experts.

After both sides exchanged blows for hundreds of rounds, due to their advantage in numbers, the Human Race powerful experts managed to slay the green python and seriously injure the black massive tiger, thereby ending this bloody battle.

That spiked savage bear carried the black massive tiger on its back and scooted away from the battlefield, leaving behind the corpse of the green python that was on the verge of evolving into a flood dragon.

Although this battle ended with the Human Race powerful experts as the victors, this group of Human Race powerful experts also paid a heavy price for this victory.

After taking stock at the end of the battle, three out of the ten Human Race powerful experts had perished during the battle with those three Beast Race opponents.

Not only that, there were four Human Race powerful experts who had lost an arm or leg.

Only three Human Race powerful experts were still at the peak of their combat prowess!

Looking at the tragic price they paid before managing to slay just one SSS-class monster and seriously injuring another, Yao Xianming clenched his fists in fury.

All the soldiers of Flame Country were also gritting their teeth in righteous indignation. The battle spirit in their hearts was thus ignited vehemently.

“Sigh! If only I had discovered the presence of those two additional SSS-class Beast Race enemies earlier, our Human Race would not have paid such a tragic, heavy price!”

When they saw the aged figure blaming himself, Yao Xianming and Ji Qing nearby quickly consoled him.

“Venerable Elder, stop blaming yourself. If you had not showed up in time, the two of us would have perished in the mouth of the ancient tiger!”

“That’s right, Venerable Elder. The most important task now is to quickly summon all the powerful experts of Flame Country to the Demon-taming Pass and make preparations to stop the Beast Race’s attack!”

As Ji Qing spoke, he shot a glance at Yao Xianming.

At Ji Qing’s prodding, Yao Xianming also stepped out at the appropriate time and said to the aged figure, “Venerable Elder, I agree with Old Ji. The most important task for us right now is to summon all the cultivators in Flame Country to come and defend the Demon-taming Pass.”

“If the Demon-taming Pass were to fall under the Beast Race’s attack, that would undoubtedly be a great catastrophe!”

After listening to Ji Qing and Yao Xianming’s exhortation, the aged figure nodded his head slowly.

“The two of you are right. I will go and gather the other Venerable Elders and get more reinforcements here.”

“Demon-taming Pass must not fall. The Human Race must not perish in our generation! ”

As the aged figure said this, his body flashed and he vanished before the eyes of Ji Qing and Yao Xianming.

Soon, as the news of the confrontation at Demon-taming Pass spread throughout Flame Country, various cultivators began heading for Demon-taming Pass of their own accord.

All of a sudden, the ordinary people in the whole Flame Country fell into a state of panic.

When she saw the panic-stricken crowds on the streets, Giovanna quickly grabbed the two siblings, Lu Shan and Lu Shui, and ran all the way home before locking the door securely.

Lu Shan was very sensible and comforted Giovanna when he saw her so flustered.

“Mom, don’t worry. I’m here. I will definitely protect you and Little Sis well!”

After hearing her son’s words, Giovanna stroked her son’s head in relief. She then pulled Lu Shan and Lu Shui into her arms and said slowly to them, “Nothing will happen. I believe even if something happens, your father will show up before us in the nick of time.”

“Alright. It’s late now. After taking your dinner, quickly go to bed!”

Giovanna urged the two siblings Lu Shan and Lu Shui to take their dinner. After that, she watched them go back to their respective bedrooms.

Once her two children were asleep, Giovanna walked into the study and sat on the location that Lu Yu usually sat. As she looked at the night sky outside the window, she muttered to herself, “Lu Yu, you must return safely..

At the same time, tens of thousands of cultivators and even more ordinary people had gathered within the Demon-taming Pass after heeding the call of the Human Race’s Venerable Elder.

At this moment, there was no differentiation in status between these cultivators and the ordinary people.

In the face of the threat from the Beast Race, when the Human Race was confronted with a life or death situation, all of them had only one identity. They all belonged to the Human Race!

As their gazes swept over the congregation of ordinary people and cultivators helping with all their might the soldiers guarding the Demon-taming Pass in their city-defense construction work, Yao Xianming and Ji Qing turned around and said to the white-haired old man dressed in a green robe seated behind them, ‘Venerable Elder, judging by the current situation, even if the Beast Race attacked, we should be able to resist them for a short while.”

“But it is very possible that most of the cultivators and ordinary people who have congregated at the Demon-taming Pass now will perish within the Demon-taming Pass.”

When he heard this, the white-haired old man dressed in a green robe let out a sigh helplessly and answered slowly, “Xianming, when are those youngsters at the War General level coming out of the Primal Chaos Secret Realm?”

“Can you guarantee that among this group of people, someone will pass the test set by our Human Race’s wise forefathers?”

When he heard this query from the white-haired old man dressed in a green robe, Yao Xianming answered resolutely without hesitation, “Venerable Elder, I am certain that among the young people with the War General cultivation level who have embarked on their journey to the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, one will definitely pass the test set by our wise forefathers.”

“I wonder if you remember that kid called Lu Yu whom I have mentioned to you before?”

“Mm-hmm. Of course I remember. That descendant called Lu Yu. He’s not bad. I have read through some information on him.”

After the white-haired old man dressed in a green robe tried hard to recall, he eventually remembered the detailed information regarding Lu Yu..
