147: Chapter 147 Ye Gucheng, a woman who lives off a man.
[Ye Wuhen's rise dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Demon Race.]
[For three consecutive days, the soldiers of the demon army discussed that human Cultivator.]
[Yu Rumeng took action.]
[Holding the rumeng token, she walked through the air, her Middle Stage Palace Building aura overwhelming everything below; Ye Wuhen couldn't even dodge.]
[With a palm strike to the chest, he was sent flying, blood spraying across the ground.]
[That little Phoenix screeched and lunged forward, only to be slapped away by Yu Rumeng.]
[Chu Sheng stood behind the formation watching this scene, feeling delighted; his wife was still reliable.]
[The Old Grandfather muttered in the ring, "Eating soft rice hard, you kid are quite a talent."]
[Chu Sheng said, "You're just jealous."]
[Grandmaster Jiang stepped in to stop Yu Rumeng.]
[The two fought for three hundred rounds, from the sky to the ground and back again, neither gaining the upper hand.]
[They both retreated, leaving behind a devastated battlefield.]
[Ye Wuhen was sent to the rear to heal; as he passed by Chu Sheng, he glanced at him with a calm gaze, like looking at an old friend.]
[Chu Sheng knew that the next time they met, it would be the final battle.]
[Madam Huayue brought her "Gigolo Legion" to provide support.]
["Sister Rumeng, you're having trouble advancing here, so Big Sister has come."]
[Thirty-six handsome men stood in a row.]
[Yu Rumeng sneered, "Are you here for war or a beauty pageant?"]
[Madam Huayue pinched that black flower, sniffing it leisurely, smiling without a word.]
[The spectacle was grand, but as for combat power—after two battles, three died, two fled, and the rest relied entirely on Madam Huayue's protection.]
[Chu Sheng thought, this isn't coming for war, it's coming to cause trouble.]
[Madam Huayue pestered Chu Sheng.]
[Every day she invited him for "tea"; the tea was proper tea, but whether the person was proper was another story.]
[Dressed in thin gauze, she leaned in, her breath like orchids: "Little brother, this tea of mine was brought from the Far North. Want a taste?"]
[Chu Sheng took a step back.]
[Madam Huayue leaned in again; he retreated, she leaned in further, nearly cornering him.]
[Yu Rumeng's face grew darker by the day, like the sky before a storm.]
[Finally, one day, Yu Rumeng couldn't take it anymore.]
[While Madam Huayue was holding Chu Sheng's hand, saying she would teach him tea tasting, Yu Rumeng strode over, hoisted Chu Sheng onto her shoulder, and headed for the tent.]
[Madam Huayue laughed behind them, her body trembling with mirth: "Sister, what a strong scent of jealousy!"]
[Carried face down and looking at the ground, Chu Sheng thought he had lost all dignity.]
[After a night of tossing and turning in the tent, his legs were weak the next day.]
[The Old Grandfather gloated in the ring, "That's what you get for attracting bees and butterflies."]
[Chu Sheng said, "I didn't attract her; she came on her own."]
[The Old Grandfather said, "Then why didn't you run?"]
[Chu Sheng said, "Where could I run to?"]
[News came from the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons and the Blood God Sect.]
[Luochuan Kingdom was retreating steadily, with most of its territory fallen.]
[Beiyuan Kingdom was even worse; the Empress was captured by the Earth Fiend Devil King personally and humiliated in front of the Beiyuan Emperor.]
[The Emperor fled in tears, shocking the world.]
[When the news reached the Tianfeng Kingdom camp, everyone's faces turned grim.]
[The three kingdoms had already asked the Central Region for help, but no one knew when reinforcements would arrive.]
[The pressure on Tianfeng Kingdom increased sharply.]
[Several Devil Kings were coming; Grandmaster Jiang began to shrink the defensive lines, preparing for a war of attrition.]
[He ordered the abandonment of peripheral positions and concentrated the forces in the main city.]
[Xia Nihuang disagreed, saying, "This will abandon the common people to the Demon Race."]
[Grandmaster Jiang didn't speak, just looked at her.]
[Xia Nihuang fell silent.]
[Yu Rumeng held a military meeting and decided to launch a general offensive.]
[Standing before the map, her voice was cold as ice: "Before reinforcements arrive, crush the main force of Tianfeng Kingdom."]
[Several Devil Kings came and nodded in agreement; Madam Huayue was unusually serious, White Bone Madam was expressionless, and the Blood Demon Ancestor was rubbing his hands in anticipation.]
[Chu Sheng raised his hand in objection, saying, "This will force the Central Region to act prematurely."]
[Yu Rumeng glanced at him but said nothing.]
[Chu Sheng continued, "Those great Sects in the Central Region have been watching from the sidelines. If we strike too hard, they won't have a choice."]
[The Blood Demon Ancestor sneered, "Womanly compassion."]
[Chu Sheng ignored him, looking only at Yu Rumeng.]
[Yu Rumeng was silent for a long time before looking away: "In three days, the general offensive."]
[Three days later, the Demon Race army surged toward the Tianfeng Kingdom positions like a tide.]
[Several Devil Kings besieged Grandmaster Jiang; the battle in the Palace Building Realm turned the surrounding hundred miles into ruins.]
[Grandmaster Jiang resisted desperately, adding over a dozen wounds to his body.]
[Just as the Tianfeng Kingdom's defense line was about to collapse, a white sword light descended from the sky.]
[Wherever the sword light passed, the Demon Race army fell like wheat being harvested, and blood flowed like a river.]
[A man in white came walking through the air.]
[His face was cold and stern, holding a silver longsword, his aura deep as an abyss.]
[The Old Grandfather's voice exploded in the ring, filled with fear: "Ye Gucheng! Grand Elder of the Wendao Palace! A veteran Dao Palace!"]
[Chu Sheng couldn't see his cultivation level clearly, only knowing he was at least at the Dao Palace Second Realm, the Spirit Nurturing stage.]
[Yu Rumeng's expression changed drastically.]
[The rumeng token was fully activated, and a black dreamscape turned into a barrier before her.]
[Ye Gucheng slashed down with his sword, the dreamscape shattered, and Yu Rumeng was forced back a hundred feet, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.]
[Chu Sheng rushed over to support her, but she pushed him away, telling him to run.]
[Ye Gucheng's gaze fell on Chu Sheng, circled around, and he suddenly frowned: "Heavenly Demon Body? You are the one who humiliated my nephew Wuhen?"]
[Nephew? That kid Ye Wuhen has such a big background?]
Chu Sheng watched this scene, his palms drenched in sweat: "Ye Gucheng! Grand Elder of the Wendao Palace! At least the Dao Palace Second Realm! Chu Sheng has really hit a brick wall this time."
[Chu Sheng's heart pounded wildly as he stood in front of Yu Rumeng.]
[Ye Gucheng raised his sword, the tip pointing at the center of his forehead.]
[That killing intent pressed down like a mountain; Chu Sheng was unable to move, and even breathing was difficult.]
[He closed his eyes, thinking he was really going to die this time.]
[A black light descended from the sky.]
[Palace Master Su Yousi landed in front of Chu Sheng, raising a hand for a palm strike, exchanging a blow with Ye Gucheng.]
[Both retreated, and the ground within a hundred feet collapsed.]
[Palace Master Su Yousi looked coldly at Ye Gucheng, her voice not loud, yet it forced everyone present to kneel: "Ye Gucheng, your opponent is me."]
He stared at the figure in the image: "But Palace Master Su Yousi is in the Dao Palace Second Realm; who wins or loses is still uncertain."
He paused, "I'm afraid this battle won't end so easily."
