Chapter 296 - 296: Gu Yuefeng’s Arrival (2)
“Senior Gu, Pang Baiyan’s Golden Core is currently sealed in this jade box.
I didn’t kill him because I wanted to wait for you to personally come and interrogate him.”
Even though Gu Yuefeng had already roughly learned about the situation in Ancient Origin City through the message,
When Jiang Chengxuan handed the jade box to him willingly, he couldn’t help but take a few more approving glances at Jiang Chengxuan and slowly nod.
“Good!”
With that, he took the jade box from Jiang Chengxuan and tapped it.
Swoosh!
The layers of restrictions on the jade box immediately began to melt.
At the same time, an unstable fluctuation emitted from the jade box.
Then, there was a bang.
A Golden Core with cracks all over its surface broke out of the jade box and wanted to escape into the distance.
“Hmph!”
However, at this moment, a cold snort sounded in the air, causing the Golden Core that was about to escape to stop.
“Gu Yuefeng, you actually came in person!”
Gu Yuefeng did not waste his breath. After fixing the Golden Core in place, he tapped at it again.
Immediately, a black hole-like vortex appeared in his eyes, causing the fluctuation on the Golden Core to become weaker and weaker.
In the end, with a bang, it exploded into dust.
This scene shocked everyone present.
They all turned to look at Gu Yuefeng.
At this moment, Gu Yuefeng seemed to be reading something with his eyes closed.
After a while, he opened his eyes and turned to look at everyone. After a moment, he said,
“Pang Baiyan joined the demon beast decades ago.
The reason why he can condense a Golden Core is because of the help of the demon beasts.”
Although his words were succinct, they were like thunder in the ears of Hua Mengyou and the others.
A Golden Core human cultivator was actually a spy for the demon beasts.
If this news was to spread, it would really cause a huge commotion.
How many human cultivators could resist this temptation when they found out that the demon beasts were willing to help them condense a Golden Core?
Pang Baiyan was the best example.
At this moment, Gu Yuefeng continued,
“This time, he is under the orders of the Flood Dragon King to cooperate with the Wolf King to take down Ancient Origin City and occupy the entire Ancient Origin Mountain Range as well as extending their territory to the Northern Forest.”
The Northern Forest referred to a relatively rich area in the north of Liang Nation.
There were several Violet Palace forces guarding it.
If their plan really succeeded this time, not only would Liang Nation lose the Ancient Origin Mountain Range, which was the frontline barrier, but they would also lose the high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein.
When they thought of this, Hua Mengyou and the others could not help but feel a lingering fear.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengxuan and his Dao companion were around this time.
Otherwise, their ending would be tragic.
“Shifu, what should we do next?”
Hua Mengyou couldn’t help but ask.
Hearing her words, everyone present turned to look at Gu Yuefeng.
Gu Yuefeng pondered for a moment before saying slowly,
“Theoretically speaking, not many people know about my coming to Ancient Origin City.
The demon beasts, especially the Wolf King, should still be in the dark.
Therefore, if possible, 1 want to use this opportunity to eliminate the demon beasts for you.”
“Really?”
Hearing Gu Yuefeng’s words, Hua Mengyou and the others could not help but reveal surprised expressions.
If Gu Yuefeng could really help them get rid of the Wolf King, their lives in Ancient Origin City in the following days would undoubtedly be much easier.
When the demon beasts found out that the Golden Core cultivator of the Jade Water Sword Pavilion, Gu Yuefeng, had been to Ancient Original City and killed the Wolf King, they would be deterred from launching another attack.
“But…”
At this point, Gu Yuefeng frowned slightly.
“As far as I know, the Wolf King is extremely good at escaping.
I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for me alone to kill it.
Therefore, when the time comes, I’m afraid 1’11 need your help.
Don’t worry, I won’t ask you to face it head-on. You just have to stop it when it is about to escape.”
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
The couple looked at each other and nodded.
“If it’s just helping in the dark, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.
However, Senior Gu…”
Jiang Chengxuan suddenly looked at Gu Yuefeng and asked,
“Why did the Wolf King suddenly appear in the Liang Nation?
Logically speaking, shouldn’t this demon king be in the territory of the Zheng Nation?”
This question was also what the others wanted to ask.
Gu Yuefeng’s eyes suddenly became deep as he shook his head.
“I don’t know the reason either.
However, after the demon beast riot ended, we would go to the Zheng Nation to ask for an explanation.
You’d better be mentally prepared.”
Gu Yuefeng did not elaborate on what they should be mentally prepared for.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were observant and vaguely realized after this demon beast riot ended, there would be some changes in the five nations of Cangnan Region.
A few days later.
Jiang Chengxuan, who was cultivating in his cave abode, suddenly sensed an extremely ferocious aura coming from outside Ancient Origin City.
This aura belonged to the Wolf King, who had returned after a few days.
When he and Shen Ruyan arrived at the east wall of Ancient Origin City, they saw that there was a mass of demon beasts.
Among them, there were more than 30 demon beasts above Level 3, most of which were either low or mid grade.
However, this number was enough to pose a threat to the Stars Chain Array.
After all, any quantity would undergo a qualitative change after reaching a certain level.
Moreover, as the spiritual stones reserve in the city decreased, the power of the array would decrease.
If not for the fact that Gu Yuefeng had a large number of spiritual stones on him this time, the Stars Chain Array would already have stopped running.
“Shifu, what should we do now?”
Hua Mengyou could not help but turn to Gu Yuefeng.
Her expression was a little ugly.
Obviously, she had not expected so many demon beasts to suddenly appear.
Including the others present, they did not expect that the Wolf King would come back with so many high level subordinates.
It must have gone to call for help in the past few days.
As such, it would be difficult for Gu Yuefeng to kill the Wolf King without alerting the other demon beasts.
Especially now, the Wolf King was at the very back of the demon beasts.
It seemed that they could only deal with those demon beasts first.
This thought flashed across everyone’s minds.
But at this moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan suddenly looked at each other.
Then, Jiang Chengxuan said,
“Senior Gu, perhaps we have another way.”
“Hmm? Another way?”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, everyone present turned to look at him..
