Chapter 130 - 29: Unlucky Bat King, Immortal Sect Fights for Crown Prince of Yan Country_2
Elder Brother Gu Tianji of the Eternal Taoist Temple and Exquisite Fairy Qiu Yueqing exchanged glances, both of their expressions quite indifferent.
The two were hesitant to take action against each other, as they were both wary of each other.
The five immortal sects are not of one mind, but rather competing against each other; the incense offerings in this world are limited, and which immortal sect doesn’t want to obtain more for themselves?
Not to mention, what Qiu Yueqing wanted was Zhao Huai – someone Gu Tianji could never agree to surrender.
“You’re also here to find the Rightful King of Yan Country?”
“Even if I slay only the Demon King, you still want to compete with me?”
Gu Tianji smiled faintly, his white Taoist robe fluttering, and in his every gesture, there was an air of transcendent elegance.
He undertook his master’s command to find the one with the Heavenly Mandate in Yan Country.
But after spending half a day searching, he still couldn’t find the location.
Fortunately, with his master’s vast divine insight, covering ten thousand li, he soon discovered the source of the golden light and immediately teleported over.
“He is mine, the Eternal Taoist Temple has nothing to do with it.” “This Demon King is the best welcoming gift.”
Qiu Yueqing’s expression was quite composed, with full confidence in her journey.
Since she accepted the palace master’s order, she would neither renege nor fail.
She must dual cultivate with the rightful king of Yan Country, or else her life would only be a brief flash in the long path of Immortal Method.
The path of cultivation ultimately has its limits.
No matter if it’s the Rebirth Realm or the Metamorphosis Stage, there are limits.
Her master’s expectation for her was to break through the unattainable Metamorphosis Realm that no one had reached in eight hundred years.
Only by breaking the limits could she advance to a higher level.
Gu Tianji sneered and said mockingly, “Everyone knows that the women of the Exquisite Palace do not associate with men. What, do you want a man now?
Coming down the mountain to abduct one?”
The reason he said such things was to engage in psychological warfare, hoping to break her Taoist mind.
Unfortunately, Qiu Yueqing’s Taoist mind was as steadfast as a rock, and she wouldn’t let her guard down with just a single sentence.
If she doesn’t get angry, that’s fine. Gu Tianji has other methods.
He continued to smile. The people in the Taoist faction are not like those in the
Buddhist faction, who enjoy going out to cultivate, seek alms, and practice Buddhism. Taoists often spend their days in secluded cultivation in the deep mountains. So, their minds are certainly full of wicked thoughts!
Indeed, these years spent as a gatekeeper have been stifling for Gu Tianji.
Now, with orders from his master, he naturally went with alacrity.
Gu Tianji raised his eyebrows and said: “Tell me, do you think the women of the Exquisite Palace prefer bad boys? Otherwise, they wouldn’t run away with people from the Devil Sect!”
These words seemed to have some hidden meaning.
“Don’t you dare insult my Senior Sister!”
Qiu Yueqing narrowed her eyes, her face cold, and behind her petite body, a soaring ice phoenix illusion emerged, crying out with a resonant call.
Gu Tianji was unfazed, an enormous immortal tree illusion appearing behind him to counter the opposing force.
For a moment, the entire sky erupted with a terrifying surge of power.
Rolling waves of energy swept all around.
Watching from the sky, Gu Tianji and Qiu Yueqing made significant moves, clearly disregarding the Bat Demon King.
Suddenly, the Bat Demon King felt both anger and joy.
His anger was because neither of them took him seriously at all, not even treating him like a demon.
His delight was that he might escape with his life.
He glanced at Zhao Huai, who was not far away, the cunning smile in his demonic eyes becoming more intense.
He wanted both the Demon Emperor’s demonic core and that person’s inheritance!
“Why did they start fighting?”
As the fierce wind of the sky approached, Zhao Huai let the strong breeze blow, watching the two in the sky in amazement.
“Be careful, young friend!”
Suddenly, an anxious voice rang out – it was Elder Mu’s warning.
In Zhao Huai’s Divine Insight, he discovered a strange, sinister black wind rushing towards him.
Reacting immediately, he shielded Song Heqing and the others behind him, preparing to summon his magical weapon and unsheathe his sword. At that moment, a dazzling golden light surged from his body.
Roar!
Following that, the magnificent dragon’s roar echoed.
One dragon shadow after another appeared around Zhao Huai, the golden light constantly swirling, radiating enormous power.
The rampaging black wind collided with the dragon shadow and was sent flying away.
“What is this thing!”
The Bat Demon King reverted to human form, baring his fangs, an ugly expression on his face as he stared menacingly at Zhao Huai.
“National destiny protection! It’s national destiny protection! Hahaha!” Old man Song Heqing stood behind Zhao Huai, his face ecstatic.
With national destiny protection of Yan, and the Heavenly Mandate on him, demons and monsters cannot come near him!
Zhao Huai stood alone with his sword, an astonished expression on his face, he had not expected this.
He never thought that one day he would benefit from being the Crown Prince of Yan Country.
Ever since he became Crown Prince, this identity had only brought him trouble!
Just a moment ago, he experienced the effects of the pure dragon qi protection for the first time.
Being a prince, he had such a unique ability?
This was the first time he knew about it and considered it a new experience.
With his attempted ambush failing, the Bat Demon King wanted to flee.
The logic of not staying in this place for long was not only clear to humans, but he also understood it.
Yet, it was too late.
The auras high above in the sky had already arrived in the blink of an eye.
A white spiritual sword arrived first, radiating a dazzling brilliance as the power of the magical weapon erupted.
It tore down like a rolling river, sweeping everything away.
Gu Tianji stood in the sky, stepping on the sword qi river, his face cold, exuding an imposing righteousness:
“How dare you, vile demon, try to harm the rightful King of Yan!” He had to perform well and make himself stand out.
He must make his moves as flamboyant as possible so as to highlight the strength and righteousness of the Eternal Taoist Temple, right?
Sword qi crisscrossed, and an enormous sword formation was set up in the blink of an eye. The Bat Demon King was trapped inside, suffering the pain of a thousand swords piercing his heart..
