Chapter 546: Chapter 339: The Exiled Human Clan! Descendants of Xuanwu!_4

"Do you know who I am?"

Lin Yan revealed a surprised expression and suddenly understood, his voice cold as he said, "You are a ’spy’ sent out, searching everywhere for my whereabouts?"

"Knowing is good, my master is a descendant of the ancient Divine Beast, the Xuanwu God!"

The Cloud Wing Bird struggled as it shouted, "My master has come for you. If you know what’s good for you, I’ll plead for mercy, perhaps you can be spared..."

"Do you have that kind of influence?"

Lin Yan let out a cold laugh and immediately choked the life out of the Cloud Wing Bird, tossing it toward the Little White Ape.

Meanwhile, two children who had just woken up and a couple nearby were all terrified by the Cloud Wing Bird speaking in human tongue, their faces turning pale.

Ancient Divine Beast? Descendant of a Great God?

Saint Master?

"No worries, just wait to drink the soup."

Lin Yan reached out and patted the little girl’s head, his heart sinking.

When he was in High Willow City, he had received news from the Prefecture City Sky Observation Department.

In the depths of the Sea Domain, a Demon King beyond tier, holding an Ancient God’s treasure, had broken through the blockade of Li Shen Sect.

This Sea Domain Demon King, wherever it went, stirred the winds and the waves, like floodwaters overflowing.

Two days ago, it approached a large Pure Land named "Sea Cliff."

The Great Guardian, seeing the great waves sweeping over, affecting the large Pure Land, tried to stop it with the ancient town object but perished on the spot.

The Sea Cliff Pure Land was hit by a tsunami-like wave, buildings were destroyed over half, and the casualties were severe.

Fortunately, the town object remained dormant, not awakened, so the large Pure Land still existed, but to rebuild the original buildings was not an overnight task.

Now, the Sea Cliff Pure Land was in ruins, barely able to accommodate three to five thousand persons.

The remaining Humans had to depend temporarily on other medium and small Pure Lands for survival.

Those with good fortune might get another settlement.

Those a bit less fortunate might end up like this middle-aged man, with several generations having to live in exile.

The most unfortunate probably wouldn’t last long and would die out there.

"This Demon King, holding an Ancient God’s treasure, is actually also a descendant of an ancient Divine Beast?"

Lin Yan thought to himself, "After he attacked the Sea Cliff Pure Land, he disappeared without a trace. The Sky Observation Department has not yet found his whereabouts."

"The Prefecture City side speculates, nine out of ten times, it’s Tribulation Ash’s people who have connected with him, hiding his movements in the shadows, setting an ambush for me!"

"Since this old demon has come for me... Finding him now is not easy, but using me as bait to lure him out shouldn’t be difficult."

Thinking this, he reached out and took the Cloud Wing Bird tossed over by the Little White Ape.

The plucked and gutted Cloud Wing Bird was thrown into the boiling water in the stone pot.

Originally, Lin Yan planned to release the Cloud Wing Bird to lure the Demon King into a battle.

But considering his opponent was beyond tier, comparable to one capable of Creation and possessed an Ancient God’s treasure, he became a bit more cautious.

Tonight he would see off the Great Elder for the last journey, destroy the Forbidden Land transformed by the Great Elder’s Inner Realm Divine Domain, thus opening Feng City’s route for supplies.

Killing the Great Elder, gaining from the Evil Qi should be considerable, and facing that descendant of Xuanwu, chances should be greater.

Thinking thus, he sniffed the scent of the meat soup, and thought to himself, "Cloud Wing Bird, no need for processing, can be eaten directly... Is it because of the ancestry’s bloodline, or because it was hidden within the Demon King’s Inner Realm Divine Domain, not directly affected by the sinister night?"

—

Meanwhile.

West of Feng City.

A barren "hill" suddenly moved.

The "rocks" in front suddenly split apart, revealing cold eyes.

This was a massive demon, shaped like a giant tortoise with a head resembling a dragon’s, its whiskers flowing.

"Found him!"

"Venerate Xuan, hold on!"

Just then, a voice came from not far away, saying, "The Sect Hierarch commands, you can call back your eight hundred Cloud Wing Birds... The traces of the Saint Master after leaving High Willow City are no longer important!"

Venerate Xuan’s gaze turned cold as he swept it over, with a hint of disdain.

Yet the newcomer, neither servile nor overbearing, bowed and said, "I am Chen Long, leader of the Twelve Phases of Tribulation Ash, and I have arranged a place for Venerate Xuan to bury the Saint Master!"

Venerate Xuan did not respond, just quietly watching the newcomer.

"What Venerate Xuan does not know is that this Human Clan’s Saint Master has mastered the Old God’s Technique, known as ’Step by Step Lotus,’ which makes him incredibly fast at escaping, astonishingly so."

Chen Long did not clarify further.

But Venerate Xuan already understood the meaning.

The Human Clan’s Saint Master, extremely fast at escaping.

And this giant tortoise, among the Demon Kings of a similar realm, was somewhat slow.

Thus, he might not necessarily be able to pursue and kill that Human Clan’s Saint Master!

"We have already prepared everything, just need Venerate Xuan to move, wait for the rabbit... Within a few days, the Human Clan’s Saint Master will surely walk into the trap!"

"How can I trust you all?" Venerate Xuan’s voice sounded deep and his tone icy, "How do I know you aren’t also Humans, trying to deceive me for him?"

"We Tribulation Ash, without exception, serve the True God! Although born of the Human Clan, it is a disgrace, but all are guided by the True God, our conviction steadfast, believing that one day, we will completely shed our Human identity, becoming true Divine Envoys!"

"We have no past interactions with Venerate Xuan, but today, we share a common goal..."

Chen Long’s expression turned grave, greeting, "That is to annihilate the Saint Master, sever the Human Clan’s path, suppress the Human Clan’s fortunes, and shatter the backbone of the Human Clan!"
