974 Demon Commander“s Migh

A middle-aged cultivator in black robe linked his hands behind his back and stood at the left of the group. His eyes were purple and a deadly energy flowed about him, giving away the Demon School Cultivation he practiced.

An unkept Taoist stood at the right of the group. He carried a sign on his back that read: “Learn your future to know your past.” He was holding a bronze compa.s.s and was followed by a young girl in a vibrant red jacket.

Carrying an aloof and relaxed air, Luo Changshen stood in the middle, looking as elegant and scholarly as ever. He was accompanied by an attractive girl with luring features despite her cold expression. Her energy was more potent than Jun Aochen and Gu Xiaoyi, but Chen Fan had never seen her before.

Luo Changshen had met Chen Fan in the Beihuang Region. He ranked twenty one on the Longevity Roll. However, there and then, Chen Fan noticed that his power had improved by leaps and bounds.

It was obvious that the three of them knew each other well.

Standing abreast, they blocked the entrance to the Deity ground. Nonetheless, they paid no attention to the cultivators from the Zi family as their focus was on each other.

“Uh? Is that your friend?” the unkept Taoist asked.

“An old friend. He made a name for himself in the Reincarnation Heavenly Region. I’m sure you know who I’m talking about.” Luo Changshen cracked a smile and didn’t seem to be surprised by Chen Fan’s presence.

“Ah, I see. That’s him. Not bad, not bad.”

Lord Gu nodded.

The old Taoist had to be incredibly powerful to brush off Chen Fan’s feat of killing a Heavenly Lord and rise to power in Tianhuang with two words: “Not bad.”

Even the girl standing beside Luo Changshen was taken aback. She gave Chen Fan a glance.

“Don’t waste our time. Move or we will make you!” a cultivator shouted.

Heavenly General Hu also pulled a dark face.

They had finally made it to the entrance but only to find out that someone else had arrived first. If not for his prudent nature, his followers would have already thrown themselves at the five men and women in their way.

Meanwhile, Lady Zi kept a calm composure. She was surprised when she saw the unkept Taoist.

“Sigh… The cultivators on this planet are going downhill. They even let a Golden Core Cultivator kill a Nascent Soul Cultivator. I have seen half a dozen Nascent Soul Cultivators at the entrance to the Ancient Demons Loch, I bet they are after your friend Cultivator Chen. Now a group of inconsequential people dares to hurl insults at us. What the heck is wrong with this place?”

The unkept elder shook his head.

“These are fools, don’t let them get to you, ” Luo Changshen said. Then he looked at the man in black robe and added, “Am I right Demon Commander?”

“You know me?” the man asked. His voice was deep and husky.

“Demon Commander Yuanlong, ranking number seventy-nine among the Ancient Demon King’s warriors. You are the guardian of the Ancient Demons Loch, how would I not know you?” Luo Changsheng said with a smirk.

Nascent Soul? Demon Commander? Yuanlong?

Heavenly General Hu and the others were confused.

However, Lady Zi was shaken to the core.

“You’re right. Tianhuang has indeed fallen from grace. A local Nascent Soul Cultivator couldn’t even hold out against one of my generals. If my power wasn’t suppressed in Tianhuang, I would have annihilated the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect.”

Yuanlong cracked a smile. His voice was laced with disdain.

“Cut to the chase! Is that the G.o.ddess of the Changshen Sect beside you? I have underestimated the Changshen Sect, you and Yuanlong must want to take the Grand Opportune Moment from me!”

Lord Gu snorted.

“Lord Gu, the Fey G.o.d Sect had been biding its time all the while as well. Didn’t you secretly founded the Fey King Hall in Tianhuang in order to gain influence? As for the Grand Opportune Moment, it’s open to all of us. Whoever has the power shall get it.” Luo Changshen brushed off the accusation with laughter.

“Indeed. My lord found this place a hundred thousand years ago. However, he was injured during the fight against Heavenly Lord Tatian at that time. But the moment is ripe now. We shall claim what is rightfully ours.” Yuanlong shouted.

“Very well then, we will all head in there and see who will laugh at the end,” Lord Gu said.

They were all dominating forces in their own right, but none of them had considered Chen Fan as a worthy opponent, much less the Zi family. Heavenly General Hu and his followers didn’t take it well and they started shouting.

“You are all stuck up on your high horses. Get out of my way or taste my thunder!”

“Just so! Do you know who our boss is? Have you heard of the Zi family? The loot is ours, don’t even think about touching it.”

“Move, or die!”

The cultivators barked.

They had never heard of any Demon Commander nor of any G.o.ddess of the Changshen Sect. So, they were convinced that they were bluffing.

However, Chen Fan and Lady Zi pulled taut faces and grew silent.

“Shut up!”

The old Taosit grunted.

“Courting death!”

Luo Changshen shook his head.

Demon Commander Yuanlong didn’t say a thing, instead he just waved his sleeves and shot out a jet of dark energy. The energy traveled faster than light and landed squarely on those cultivators who had shouted at him.

“Boom!”

Everyone watched as the dark energy sliced those cultivators in half, destroying their Golden Core and Divine Souls in the process.

Then and only then did they realize that hidden within the energy was a black dagger. It looked nothing out of the ordinary, however, it had killed seven mid-stage golden core cultivators.

“Stth!”

Everyone gasped.

Among the victims were Zhang Wentian and Fairy Yanlin.

They were both renowned cultivators who possessed more than one Spirit Artifact. Not even Heavenly General Hu could bring them down in less than ten moves. However, they were killed by Yuanlong with an ordinary dagger. It was a clear sign that Yuanlong was a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
