288: There is a great gift
Lu Chen, who was traveling with Shaman Feng Jie through the clouds towards the location of the Dao Soldiers, suddenly stopped.
“Hmm?” A sudden warning came from the depths of his soul, causing Lu Chen to instinctively pause.
“Danger?!”
But where did the danger come from?
His Dao Soldiers had always been here, and had even destroyed the three brothers Qian Zhen Feng, Qian Zhen Yu, and Qian Zhen Lei of Great Qian. It could be said that although there were many Human Race Heavenly Pride present, the only one who could truly threaten Lu Chen's Spirit Treasure Dao Soldiers was Solitary Pride.
The other Human Race Heavenly Pride were not worth mentioning.
But even Solitary Pride should not have brought a sense of crisis to Lu Chen, moreover, Solitary Pride and Lu Chen had some acquaintance, although not deep, he should absolutely not harbor killing intent towards Lu Chen.
So, where did this warning from the depths of his soul come from?
Lu Chen's gaze swept around, but in the end, he found nothing.
He turned around, originally intending to ask Shaman Feng Jie to take a look, but on second thought, he decided against it.
Feng Jie's eyes had already bled twice because of him; it was better not to let him take risks again.
This Godly Staff was also a straightforward person; if you asked him to help look, he would truly dare to look at anything, even to the point of his eyes bleeding, and they hadn't completely recovered yet!
While thinking, Lu Chen suddenly spoke softly, “Senior Brother Jiang?”
He spoke tentatively because Lu Chen wasn't sure if Jiang Daoqing was still there.
Perhaps this Senior apprentice-brother Jiang had also followed the crowd and started fighting with the Demon Clan.
If this Senior apprentice-brother Jiang Daoqing was not here, then Lu Chen would turn around and run without hesitation.
His premonition from the depths of his soul had always been accurate, and he never doubted it. Knowing the danger and still charging forward stubbornly was not Lu Chen's style. Sensing danger and avoiding it, and when trouble arose, protecting everyone by putting them in front of him, that was Lu Chen's principle.
Almost at the same time Lu Chen's words fell, Jiang Daoqing's response sounded in Lu Chen's ear: “I am here.”
‘Senior Brother Jiang is still here.’ Lu Chen was happy, yet also a little confused.
“I still have a lot of Lifespan and am not interested in Demon Immortals. Furthermore, if you want to find Fallen Immortals, it's not that there are none within my Dongxu Immortal Mansion.” As if sensing Lu Chen's confusion, Jiang Daoqing explained lightly.
‘There are Fallen Immortals within the Dongxu Immortal Mansion itself?!’ Lu Chen's heart trembled violently.
The Demon Clan Fallen Immortals, which had stirred up monstrous waves above the Azure Underworld, driven countless Human Race Great Experts and Great Power mad, and attracted countless Demon Clan members, were spoken of by Jiang Daoqing with such calmness.
Because the Fallen Immortals, which could affect the entire Starry Sky Universe, were also present within the Dongxu Immortal Mansion itself.
‘Hiss!’
It seemed he had still underestimated the significance of this Dongxu Immortal Mansion!
However, after a brief shock, Lu Chen quickly reacted. The urgent matter at hand was not whether Fallen Immortals existed within the Dongxu Immortal Mansion.
Rather, it was whether there was a risk here, and if there truly was a risk, whether Jiang Daoqing could protect him.
Or rather, whether Jiang Daoqing could suppress this unknown risk.
“I have a premonition that there seems to be great danger here. Can Senior Brother Jiang see clearly?” Lu Chen spoke concisely, asking the crucial question.
After what seemed like a few breaths, Jiang Daoqing's voice sounded again, and it carried surprise: “Junior Brother Lu's intuition is truly remarkable!”
He paused, then continued: “For you little ones, there is indeed great danger here, but it's alright. Just go and get your things, I am here.”
‘Senior Brother Jiang is indeed tough.’ Lu Chen felt a wave of relief, but also gained confidence.
“Thank you, Senior Brother Jiang.” Lu Chen expressed his gratitude, then headed towards the location of the Dao Soldiers ahead.
However, at this moment, figure after figure stepped out from the Void.
Qing Tong of the Qing Shi Clan, Bai Chongshan of the White Elephant Clan, Mang Tianze of the Azure Ox Clan, Tiger Xibai of the Sha Tiger Clan, they arrived together, bringing with them monstrous demonic energy.
At the same time, the Golden Crow Emperor Clan rose like a great sun, and another shadow appeared, stepping towards the many Human Race Heavenly Pride.
“Your Puppets are not here, how do you plan to stop us now!” Bai Chongshan spoke slowly, calm and composed, as if everything was under control.
“Rumor has it that your Puppet Technique is heaven-reaching. I'd like to see what means you still have after losing your Puppets?” Qing Tong of the Qing Shi Clan sneered.
“What's the point of saying all this? While his Puppets aren't here, kill him!” Tiger Xibai of the Sha Tiger Clan said coldly.
“Kill!” Mang Tianze followed closely, saying indifferently.
Lu Chen smiled, and slowly beckoned to the four Demon Clan fellows.
‘Come, with Jiang Daoqing here, let's see what kind of waves you can stir up!’
“One has lost his Puppets, and one is hiding in the Divine Hall, not daring to show himself. Fine, I'll send you on your way.” Tiger Xibai's killing intent surged, accompanied by demonic energy, instantly transforming into weapons that clashed and roared, the intent to kill shaking the surroundings, directly sweeping towards Lu Chen.
But at this moment, the entire Void suddenly fell silent.
The clashing sound of weapons disappeared, and even Tiger Xibai's killing intent, demonic energy, and so on, instantly froze.
Everything, absolutely everything, seemed to have been paused by an invisible great hand.
Lu Chen remained composed.
Tiger Xibai's expression was stiff, no, not just his expression, even his body was stiff. He, couldn't move!
He couldn't open his mouth, his eyes couldn't move, and his body couldn't move an inch.
Thus, Tiger Xibai fell into panic, ‘There is great terror?!’
Who is it?
The Human Race Great Experts and Great Power were clearly all tied up by that Demon Immortal and numerous strong individuals from the Demon Clan, so why would a terrifying existence still be guarding Lu Chen?!
There was no explanation, nor did any being appear.
Whether it was Tiger Xibai, or Mang Tianze, Bai Chongshan, and Qing Tong, in that single instant, their vision went black, and then they fell into eternal silence.
Their physical bodies suffered no injuries, but their Nascent Souls were completely ground into nothingness by supreme power, and they had become dead corpses.
“Keep the Monster Corpses well, and there's also a Little Golden Crow, and two old fellows from the Demon Clan. Senior apprentice-brother might be able to give Junior Brother you a great gift today.” Jiang Daoqing's voice entered Lu Chen's ears, faintly, it seemed to carry a hint of...
Excitement?
‘It seems this Senior apprentice-brother Jiang is also fond of fighting.’ Lu Chen was a little slow to react at first, but soon he was overjoyed.
Senior Brother Jiang had personally said he would bring the Golden Crow Emperor Clan, and not just the Golden Crow Emperor Clan, but also two beings who, even in Jiang Daoqing's words, were considered old fellows!
Could the old fellows in Jiang Daoqing's words be simple?
Yang Spirit Realm and Nascent Soul Realm were called little things by him, so those old fellows were likely at least Faxiang Realm Great Experts starting out!
