Book 07 Chapter 083: War G.o.d Marquis
Divine Farmer Citys entrance:
The army from the nether realm broke Divine Farmer Citys defensive barrier in mere moments.
Countless monks rushed forward, and many Divine Farmer City soldiers took up defensive postures. They all looked in shock at the distant hundred-phoenix carriage escorted by the army of humans, ghosts, and hanba zombies.
Many of the Divine Farmer City officials from the previous regime soon goggled.
Thats Princess Jingwei! Theres no mistake! Its Princess Jingwei! His Holy Eminence a.s.signed the princess to reign in his place, but the crown prince returned and s.n.a.t.c.hed the throne! A sharp-eyed official immediately recognized the hateful Jingwei.
I heard that the Phoenix Prime, the Flame Monarch, was already dead. To think those one hundred phoenixes are pulling the carriage. Who is in the carriage?
Why does Princess Jingwei dare to return? Isnt she afraid
As the officials were overcome with shock, an official suddenly opened his eyes wide in wild joy.
Its the first princess! The first princess has returned! The first princess has returned! that official suddenly shouted excitedly.
Some of the old officials rushed out of the city impatiently.
First Princess, this old official has finally waited until you returned! First Princess! some officials called out incredibly excitedly.
First princess? Countless officials raised their eyebrows, as this jogged their memory.
Yan? I recall now. I think my great-grandfather mentioned it before. The first princess established her own nation, becoming a female sovereign. The name of her nation was Yan, the Yan with one fire character more than the Yan Heavenly Dynastys Yan. The first princess added one more fire than the Yan Heavenly Dynasty in a fit of pique with His Holy Eminence. Thats right. Its the Yan Imperial Dynasty. The first princess, Jiang Ba! someone recalled.
The first princess? Logically speaking, His Highness the Crown Prince is the first princesss younger brother, so
Countless officials appeared shocked.
In joy, horror, shock, and ignorance, the soldiers that rushed out to defend the city immediately split into different factions.
Respectfully welcoming back Your Highness the First Princess!
Fire the arrows if they dare take another step forward!
The defense of Divine Farmer City turned chaotic.
In the city, the Future Buddha, Di s.h.i.+tian, Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va appeared tense.
What should we do? The Lord Buddha still has not responded! Di s.h.i.+tian looked at the Future Buddha anxiously.
The Future Buddha showed a sullen expression. No matter what, we cannot lose Divine Farmer City. It has the boundless blessings the Lord Buddha needs. Nothing must go wrong!
Thats right. We need to deter her from entering the city! Di s.h.i.+tian said with a sullen expression.
Far away, the three-million-strong army respectfully saluted the hundred-phoenix carriage. Then, the carriage flew slowly to the front of the three-million-strong army.
Coo! Coo!
The hundred phoenixes cried out, evincing no distress at being enslaved. Instead, they looked proud, as though pulling this carriage was an extremely glorious deed.
The hundred-phoenix carriage arrived at the very front.
General, should we fire the arrows? a defending soldier asked.
One of the generals frowned.
Protect the first princess. Old Zhang, if you dare shoot at the first princess, dont blame us for what we do! another general shouted.
The defending army turned messy.
The hundred-phoenix carriage continued flying. On the carriage, Jingwei glared.
Elder Sister, its them! The Future Buddha, Di s.h.i.+tian, Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va, they are all there! Hahahaha! They are Jiang Gautamas left and right arms! Jingwei said with hatred on her face.
Far away, the faces of the group in Divine Farmer City sank.
Although they felt anxious at Bas return, they did not fear her.
This group had never seen Ba before. After all, she had been sealed for three thousand years. Jiang Gautama had ruled the Spirit Mountain Holy Land for only a thousand years or so.
Hence, everyone only thought of her as an imperial emperor.
No matter how strong an imperial emperor was, so what? Furthermore, she had been sealed for three thousand years.
We cannot let her enter the city. Jingwei has a certain amount of control over the blessings in the city. She has the Nation Overseeing Mandate, which Jiang Lianshan gave her back then! the Future Buddha said anxiously.
Ill test her! Humph! Di s.h.i.+tian snorted coldly.
Di s.h.i.+tians figure stepped forward and flashed, flying out of the city.
As Di s.h.i.+tian flew, he released a powerful aura, pus.h.i.+ng it towards the hundred-phoenix carriage. Jingweis expression changed when that powerful aura appeared.
Elder Sister, Di s.h.i.+tian is coming! Jingwei said worriedly.
Coo!
The hundred large phoenixes glared as they cried out furiously.
Jiang Ba, werent you going to remain in the nether realm? What are you doing in the land of the living? Di s.h.i.+tian shouted as he blocked the carriage.
The sound waves from his shout were powerful, swaying the carriages curtains.
Insignificant wild dragon, to think you care to say such bold words before us? A heroic but murderous female voice came from behind the curtains.
The voice did not carry any aura, but it made Di s.h.i.+tians heart tremble unconsciously. This voice had an aloof might as if from the heavens.
Hah! Wild dragon?! Di s.h.i.+tian shouted while glaring. Jiang Ba, you
However, the voice from behind the curtain interrupted him. Get out of Divine Farmer City immediately. Otherwise, you can forget about leaving.
The female voice had a determined tone, giving off an aura that looked down on the world.
Di s.h.i.+tians heart sank. He had never felt such a majestic and imposing aura from a woman before. Its irresistible nature compelled one to obey.
However, how could Di s.h.i.+tian shrink away now?
Di s.h.i.+tian shouted, Humph! As a woman, you should seek a husband to marry, remain at home to a.s.sist your husband, and raise the children. Yet, you come and usurp the role of the man. I wonder
How audacious!
Above the large carriage, a bronze-armored general holding a square bronze s.h.i.+eld in his left hand and an ax in his right suddenly stepped forward while glaring.
Boom!
When he brandished his ax, a piercing light appeared in the world, so dazzling that it forced everyone to shut their eyes.
What? Di s.h.i.+tian exclaimed as his expression changed.
This ax swung with a ferocious might, instantly overwhelming Di s.h.i.+tian.
Oh no!
Boom!
Di s.h.i.+tian only managed a startled cry before a loud report rang out, and an azure light exploded in the world. A black hole appeared at his location, and a berserk spatial shock wave sent a violent gust blowing in all directions.
Whoos.h.!.+
The black hole vanished, and everyone goggled.
What? The expressions of the Future Buddha, Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va changed.
Even the distant Gu Hai in Borderless Heavenly Capital narrowed his heavenly eye.
When the black hole vanished outside Divine Farmer City, it revealed that the bronze-armored general had vertically bisected Di s.h.i.+tian, the leader of the Eight Heavenly Dragon Tribes, who had insulted Jingweis elder sister, with his ax.
Di s.h.i.+tians internal organs spilled out, and blood sprayed all around as his body fell. One half exploded, splattering a vast amount of blood.
Just one ax strike? Di s.h.i.+tian got split in half with only one ax strike?
The head of the other half showed disbelief. One of Jiang Bas officials chopped me down like that? Furthermore, I could not resist at all?
Thisthis is impossible!
Save me! Di s.h.i.+tian cried for help with much difficulty.
Oh no! The expressions of Brahma and the others changed, and they wanted to rush over.
Not dead yet? Humph! That bronze-armored general thrust his s.h.i.+eld forward.
Stop! Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va quickly made their moves, feeling shocked and furious. However, it was already too late.
The s.h.i.+eld moved too quickly. Just like the earlier ax, it smashed that remaining half.
Boom!
The other half of the dragons body instantly exploded into powder.
How dare you?! The three attacked simultaneously, launching powerful strikes.
Clang!
The bronze-armored general pushed his s.h.i.+eld forward.
Boom!
The s.h.i.+eld knocked the three back, shocking them as they looked at the bronze-armored general.
No! No! Thats impossible! Brahma exclaimed.
Who are you?! s.h.i.+va yelled in horror.
A few maidservants opened the curtains of that carriage. Then, a woman wearing fiery-red imperial robes and a crown stepped out slowly. Although she looked gorgeous, her beauty had a domineering flavor that declared herself supreme.
It was as if everyone in the world was shorter than her as she stood there.
Your Reverence! The bronze-armored general showed a solemn expression when he saw Ba step out.
It was not just the bronze-armored general. Some other generals and officials standing above the carriage bowed extremely respectfully. Your Reverence!
Ba ignored them. Instead, she looked coldly at the distant Future Buddha, Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va.
We gave you a chance earlier. Since you dont want it, then never mind! Ba said coldly.
Gave us a chance? What chance?
Suddenly, everyone recalled what Ba had said.
Get out of Divine Farmer City immediately. Otherwise, you can forget about leaving.
Ba had said that earlier. She told them to get lost, but Di s.h.i.+tian charged forward recklessly?
Had it been earlier, everyone would have doubted Bas words. However, just one of Bas subordinates destroyed Di s.h.i.+tian in an instant. Thus, everyones heart shuddered.
The Future Buddhas entire body trembled as a sense of impending doom overwhelmed him.
Lord Future Buddha, what should we do? the bodhisattvas and arhats asked anxiously.
Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va looked at the Future Buddha too.
The Future Buddha felt anxious. Before he could speak, the distant Ba suddenly spoke.
Xingtian! Ba said indifferently.
[TL Note: Xingtian is based on a figure in Chinese mythology. Here is a Wikipedia entry on him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xingtian.]
This official is present! the bronze-armored general holding a s.h.i.+eld and ax shouted in response.
Clear them out! Spare no one! Bas expression appeared extremely indifferent, as though she spoke of something unworthy of her attention.
Yes! Xingtian shouted.
Boom!
Xingtian immediately soared into the sky and charged at Brahma, Vishnu, and s.h.i.+va.
Xingtian? He is Lord Xingtian?! a Divine Farmer City official exclaimed.
Lord Xingtian? My great-grandfather had mentioned him before. He was the Yan Heavenly Dynastys War G.o.d Marquis. Later on, he served the first princess. Didnt the Huang Heavenly Emperor, the Yellow Emperor back then, decapitate him? Thats not right! Thats not right! Lord Xingtian is still alive? an official exclaimed in pleasant surprise.
In the distant Borderless Heavenly Capital, Gu Hai also narrowed his eyes. Xingtian? Xingtians dance of ax and s.h.i.+eld? The Yellow Emperor chopped off his head. He uses his nipples as eyes and his bellyb.u.t.ton as a mouth, a G.o.d of war?
Gu Hai also knew the name of this war G.o.d. This war G.o.d existed not only on the Divine Continent but also on Earth. This person had a counterpart in the other immortal firmament?
Hah!
The war G.o.dXingtian swung his ax at Brahma, sending out an ax light. When the ax swung, it seemed like countless souls of soldiers appeared, charging at Brahma with the ax strike.
Oh no! Help me! Brahmas expression changed.
