Mad God Evolution
Chapter 1230 - 1230 1163

1230: Chapter 1163 1230: Chapter 1163 “Husband, it seems they are indeed acquaintances…” Ao Ye also spoke softly.

Lv Zhong nodded slightly, indeed, he too had sensed it.

The person being pursued ahead was none other than Zhuge Ming, Mu Yi, Dongfang Changqin, Lei Tuotian, and Xuanyuan Lei whom they had met decades ago on Fairy Illusion Star.

Back then, these five were the city guards of Fairy Illusion Star.

The fee for Lv Zhong and his party to enter the city had been generously paid by Zhuge Ming.

Lv Zhong, Mu Cangqiong, and Ao Ye had altogether paid 150 middle-grade immortal stones as the city entrance fee.

While it wasn’t a large sum, it was a considerate gesture from Zhuge Ming.

Even more, believing that the trio had just ascended to the Immortal Realm and probably didn’t have many immortal stones, Zhuge Ming had taken the initiative to invite them to stay at his house.

These five weren’t particularly strong, with Zhuge Ming, the strongest among them, only at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm.

However, back then, Lv Zhong too had just ascended to the Immortal Realm and had just broken through to the Profound Immortal Realm.

All things considered, Zhuge Ming and his companions could be counted as acquaintances from the very beginning with Lv Zhong.

While on Fairy Illusion Star, Lv Zhong had even made a promise to visit them if possible.

But due to being preoccupied, he had forgotten about visiting Zhuge Ming and the others.

It just so happened that Lv Zhong made quite a stir on Fairy Illusion Star, with his remarkable feats almost turning him into an idol in the eyes of all young powerhouses.

Zhuge Ming and the others felt that their status was too far below Lv Zhong’s to visit him without seeming like they were trying to curry favor, so they felt embarrassed to approach him…

***********

“Big brother, you and second brother take the fourth and fifth brothers and go first, I’ll cover the rear.

Go quickly—” Dongfang Changqin shouted to Zhuge Ming and Mu Yi.

The pursuers were drawing ever nearer, and if they didn’t make a decision soon, they feared they would all be annihilated.

“No…

no good!

If someone has to cover the rear, it should be me, the eldest—” Gasping, Zhuge Ming threw Lei Tuotian, who was on his back, directly toward Dongfang Changqin.

Of course, he used a gentle force.

Seeing his eldest brother shirk responsibility, Dongfang Changqin was incredibly frustrated.

If he did not catch Lei Tuotian, he might get injured.

Left with no choice, he reached out, summoning a gentle force to catch Lei Tuotian.

“Go now!

Ahead…

ahead there’s a second-level supreme flying ship approaching.

If need be, ask them for help.

Anyone who can afford a supreme version of a second-level flying ship must be either wealthy or noble, possibly possessing no Da Luo-level powerhouse.

If you get rescued, you might…

might be able to save…

save me…” As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Ming stopped fleeing and instead charged toward the pursuers.

“Big brother…” Dongfang Changqin screamed in shock.

Seeing this, Mu Yi felt a chill in his heart.

Quickly, he passed Xuanyuan Lei, who he had been carrying, to Dongfang Changqin, “Third brother, quickly go and ask for help with fourth and fifth brothers.

I’ll go help eldest brother—”

Mu Yi didn’t give Dongfang Changqin time to react, transforming into a meteor and chasing after Zhuge Ming.

“Damn!

These two bastards…” Watching his elder brothers turn back to cover their retreat, Dongfang Changqin’s eyes brimmed with moisture.

Gritting his teeth in resolve, he supported one brother with one hand, rushing towards the faintly visible flying ship in the starry space ahead.

Dongfang Changqin understood that this was the only chance to save his elder and second brothers!

“Haha, two pieces of trash have come back to deliver themselves to death—” Among the pursuers, a tiger-shaped giant demon laughed wildly, “Hu Pao, Hu Zha, you two go butcher these two humans.

As for the others, keep chasing…”

The tiger-shaped giant demon roared imposingly, sending the demon followers into a frenzy.

“Understood—” Two tiger demons, each in the mid-level Profound Immortal Realm, roared as they separately rushed at Zhuge Ming and Mu Yi.

“Not good, General Hu, the direction those few are escaping toward has a…

a flying ship approaching…” A little demon suddenly reported to the tiger-shaped demon king.

“A flying ship?

It’s…

it’s just a second-level ship, don’t worry about it!

Isn’t the King’s reinforcement army almost here?

Chase them down.

If they show discernment, spare their lives.

If not, attack directly.

Also, report this situation to the King.

I’m afraid the people coming on the flying ship are here to reinforce these guys—” The tiger demon roared angrily.

“Understood…” Terrified by the giant tiger’s intimidation, the little demon’s legs went weak as he rapidly retreated and decisively took out a communication stone to connect with the rear troops.

…

“Scumbags, die—” Holding a top-grade immortal weapon, Zhuge Ming fearlessly attacked Hu Zha blocking him.

Though only a lower-level Profound Immortal, with the top-grade immortal weapon, Zhuge Ming for a time forced Hu Zha, a mid-level Profound Immortal, to retreat from his sharp onslaught.

Mu Yi was also cunning.

At this moment, he spared no effort in using a superior immortal tool, exhausting a great amount of his energy in combat against Hu Pao.

Both understood that now was not the time to conserve their internal energy.

Only by fully depleting their energy to hold off the opposing side could they have any chance of enduring, especially since their opponents were two mid-level Profound Immortal demons, stronger than either of them.

If it weren’t for their weapons being of a much higher grade than those of the demon generals, they would likely have fallen long ago.

“Haha, humans, don’t think we don’t know your plan.

Haha, your brothers will absolutely not escape.

Even those on the flying ship will have to leave their lives behind once they take action.

My demon race’s army is also continuously advancing.

So, you absolutely can’t escape.

Just hand over that treasure obediently…” Hu Zha laughed wildly, his eyes fixed as if he had already captured Zhuge Ming and Mu Yi.

“You want the treasure?

I don’t have it, but I do have a life to offer!” Zhuge Ming shouted coldly, his top-grade immortal sword glowing brightly, and a meteor-bright sword energy burst toward Hu Zha with the swiftness of thunder.

“Seeking death—” Enraged, Hu Zha’s massive tiger paw, emanating boundless murderous aura, fiercely smacked down towards Zhuge Ming.

Hu Zha was a true demon of the Demon Race, also possessing the Demon Race’s body refining techniques.

He lacked any fine weapons or magical treasures because his own body was comparable to a middle-grade immortal tool.

Combined with strong immortal demon power, his full-strength strike was not something Zhuge Ming could withstand.

But then, Zhuge Ming had a top-grade immortal weapon for protection.

Otherwise, Hu Zha was confident he could have annihilated Zhuge Ming with one strike.

Yet, Hu Zha failed to understand that equipment, too, was a form of strength.

Human cultivators naturally did not possess the physical prowess of demons, and ordinary cultivators often relied on equipment to compensate or enhance their strength.

Thus, the art of artifact refinement existed.

The Demon Race possessed formidable physical bodies, but the Human Race excelled in wisdom and creation.

At the same level, humans were physically weaker than demons, but their equipment was far superior.

This equipment was the Human Race’s advantage.

“Boom…”

The massive tiger claw collided with Zhuge Ming’s top-grade immortal sword, instantly generating a huge wave of energy.

Zhuge Ming was directly injured and blown away by the rebound force, even spitting out several mouthfuls of fresh blood while still in the air.

Meanwhile, Hu Zha’s tough tiger claw was injured by a sword qi, and its combat effectiveness was immediately reduced by twenty to thirty percent.

“Human, you should die—” Hu Zha was thoroughly enraged.

He was a mid-level Profound Immortal, dealing with a human who had just entered the lower Profound Immortal Realm, and he was still wounded?

He knew this human had been fighting for a long time and had already consumed a lot of energy.

Humiliation!

Hu Zha roared and attacked Zhuge Ming again.

This time, he was determined to kill Zhuge Ming with one strike.

“Big brother…” Mu Yi cried out in shock.

At that moment, Hu Pao flashed a sinister smile on his face and, taking advantage of Mu Yi’s distraction, unleashed the Immortal Treasure [Immortal Slaying Shuttle] in a spiraling motion faster than a swift thunderbolt towards Mu Yi’s head.

If it hit, Mu Yi’s head would definitely be blown apart!

Just then!

“Boom!

Boom!”

In the starry sky, space itself suddenly fractured!

The space was as if cut open by a sharp blade.

Then, a delicate jade hand lightning-fast pierced through.

“Slap…”

“Slap…”

Two crisp sounds ensued!

Hu Zha and Hu Pao, both mid-level Profound Immortal tigers, were struck as if they were in different spaces.

The sound of the slap was crisp!

Both tigers were dazed, all their teeth knocked out.

At the same time, they were flung tens of thousands of kilometers away and went silent.

“What happened?

What exactly happened just now?”

Having narrowly escaped death, Zhuge Ming and Mu Yi cried out in shock.

Instantly, they also realized what had happened.

They understood that they had been rescued, and couldn’t help feeling both alarmed and overjoyed.

“Thank you, senior, for your timely assistance!” Zhuge Ming and Mu Yi respectfully bowed in the direction from where the jade hand had appeared.

“Hehe, there’s no need for such formalities, Brother Zhuge and Brother Mu…”

Just then, the space in front of them twisted strangely, and in an instant, an ethereal and stunningly beautiful woman appeared before them.

It was Ao Ye!

However, with her continuously increasing strength and her ongoing consumption of [Thousand Gold Profound Girl Pills], Ao Ye had not only become more beautiful, but her demeanor had also greatly changed from the time on Fairy Illusion Star.

This made Zhuge Ming and Mu Yi unable to recognize Ao Ye immediately.

In fact, Ao Ye’s breathtaking beauty almost stunned them silly.

They had been continually undertaking missions in the Immortal Realm and thought themselves well-traveled, but they swore they had never seen a goddess-like figure as astonishing as Ao Ye.

And yet, this stunning woman recognized them and even called out their names.

This made them almost believe they were dreaming.

“Please…

may I ask, senior, are you…”

Although Zhuge Ming was shocked by Ao Ye’s beauty, his gaze and thoughts remained proper, and at this moment, he respectfully bowed to Ao Ye.

As for Mu Yi, he too came out of his daze and awkwardly bowed his body in a salute.

“Hehe, Brother Zhuge and Brother Mu have forgotten me so quickly?

My name is Ao Ye, my husband is Lv Zhong.

Back on the Fairy Illusion Star, it was thanks to you brothers leading the way…” Ao Ye smiled slightly, happy to encounter acquaintances.

Ao…

Ao Ye?

“You…

you are Ao Ye?” Mu Yi exclaimed in shock; he remembered that although Ao Ye had impressive talents back then, she…

hadn’t reached the Golden Immortal Realm at that time.

It had only been seventy or eighty years, and Ao Ye had become this…

this powerful?
