Chapter 408: Chapter 408
"The Golden Immortals and Heavenly Immortals are numerous, skilled in the Thunder God Dharma, controlling the thunderbolts, and their strength is quite impressive."
"But we are the Asuras!"
Chen Jiuge saw on Xiu Wenfei’s face a fervor even more intense than the others. This Xiu Wenfei is like a zealot!
"I understand." Reasoning with a zealot was futile, so Chen Jiuge decided to go along with her.
Xiu Wenfei nodded in satisfaction and said, "I’ll go take a bath first. If the Divine Son has any ideas, just let me know."
Watching the elusive Xiu Wenfei, Chen Jiuge breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Wencheng poked his head out of the void and said, "Divine Son, Xiu Wenfei is a crazy woman. You’d better not talk back to her. What you did just now was perfect."
"When she was Luo Zhitian’s Guardian, he once contested her and ended up being hung up and whipped for three days and nights. It was a terrible ordeal."
"Luo Zhitian? That first War General of the Shura in the Secret Realm?" Chen Jiuge said skeptically.
"Who else but him? If you don’t believe me, when you face him during the Great Battle, ask him yourself. But don’t blame me if you get beaten up. I can’t defeat him now anyway," Luo Wencheng shrank back as he spoke.
"By the way, Brother Cheng, what have you and Elder Kui Shan been up to lately? I haven’t seen you guys around?"
"Ahaha, nothing, nothing, we’re just tired and taking a rest," Luo Wencheng chuckled and instantaneously vanished into the void.
"It wouldn’t be because you’re afraid of Elder Fei, right?" Chen Jiuge said, somewhat oddly.
"What do you think, Yongshan?"
Tian Yongshan looked straight ahead and said, "I don’t know, City Lord."
They’re discussing an Immortal! As a mere Golden Immortal, I wouldn’t dare speak carelessly. I certainly don’t want to be hung up and whipped for three days and nights.
"Fine. I just wonder how Roy is doing now."

"Roy, just a reminder, this Spirit Jade Clan is marked as a tribe specifically under the Divine Son’s protection," Luo Yue said leisurely, watching Roy who was slashing enthusiastically.
Roy’s hand, clutching the blade, stiffened. This pause was seized by the Spirit Jade Clan’s Golden Immortal. The colorful Jade Ruyi heavily struck Roy on the forehead.
"Got him?" The smile on the Spirit Jade Clan Leader’s face had yet to fully bloom when a dark-red blade aura cleaved him in two.
Roy said, dissatisfied, "Why didn’t you remind me earlier? Now this guy has hit me once; I can’t just let it slide, can I?"
"I did tell you, but you didn’t listen," Luo Yue replied, exasperated. If he weren’t outmatched by Roy, he would have definitely taught him a harsh lesson.
"Alright, can I take the rest back?"
Looking at the decimated Spirit Jade Clan, each face etched with deep-seated hatred, Luo Yue waved his hand and said, "Just kill them all. But the remaining tribes have to be under my command."
"Unless you really want to be sent back to the clan lands."
Roy opened his mouth, a hint of grievance on his face.
In the void, Luo Kuisan did his utmost to conceal his presence. Watching Roy and Luo Yue below, his face was etched with exasperation. Great Leader, have you gone senile? Why did you assign me such a pair of troublemakers?!
Suddenly, a small hammer appeared in the void and struck Luo Kuisan on the forehead, dazing him. The calm voice of Luo Chengwu, the Great Leader, then sounded, "Little Kui Shan, speaking ill of others behind their backs warrants a beating."
"Eh, Great Leader, how did you get here?" Luo Kuisan said, looking embarrassed.
"I have a task for you," Luo Chengwu explained. "I deliberately assigned Roy and Luo Yue to Chen Jiuge. Those two can’t stay quiet even in the clan lands; they cause trouble every day. The Great Battle is about to begin, and Chen Jiuge’s ability to protect himself is somewhat lacking. Only with these two protecting him can I be at ease."
"Great Leader, you worry too much. With me and Old Cheng here, there will be absolutely no problem," Luo Kuisan assured, thumping his broad chest.
Seeing a hint of hesitation on Luo Kuisan’s face, Luo Chengwu said flatly, "You want to ask why I also sent Luo Bing and Xiu Wenfei, right?"
"As expected of you, Great Leader! But why? Aren’t there many Elders in the clan lands? Why send two... eccentric ones?" Luo Kuisan was puzzled.
Luo Chengwu sighed and said, "Not everyone is as indifferent as you, Little Kui Shan."
"There are many dissenting voices within the clan; many people do not like Chen Jiuge as the new Divine Son. Even Luo Wencheng becoming his Guardian was due to Xiu Xiu’s influence."
"Luo Bing’s father, Dao Yi, made great contributions to our clan. If Chen Jiuge can gain Luo Bing’s approval, his influence within the clan will be somewhat guaranteed."
"As for Xiu Wenfei, consider her a challenge."
Those damned old fossils again? A hint of disgust flashed across Luo Kuisan’s face.
Even among the Asura Clan, known for being warlike and straightforward, there was still loathsome scheming and intrigue.
"How can you speak of our seniors like that?" Although Luo Chengwu’s words were reproachful, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, clearly indicating his approval.
"Alright, enough said. You just take extra care of Chen Jiuge. Also, Big Bird Luo seems to be showing some interest. If nothing unexpected happens, he might come over too."
"Really?" Luo Kuisan asked, his face brightening with delight.
"Yes, really. Someone is looking for me; I have to go first."
Once the Great Leader’s figure had completely vanished, Luo Kuisan hopped on the spot three times. His good friend was coming! This was incredibly exciting.
Roy and Luo Yue returned to Jiaoying City, leading their army with a vast number of captives trailing behind them like slaves, amidst a heavy aura of murderous intent.
The tremendous murderous intent and chilling resentment condensed into a blood-red cloud above.
Chen Jiuge, who had been overjoyed, saw the red cloud. His face stiffened, and he internally exclaimed, Damn it! Just how many did they slaughter to form a cloud like that?!
After they settled in, Chen Jiuge flipped through the list of captives counted by Li Qiwen. Although he was mentally prepared, the corners of his mouth still twitched involuntarily.
"Is this all that’s left?"
"That’s all, and that’s including the unhatched eggs," Li Qiwen said with a bitter smile.
Chen Jiuge, feeling mentally exhausted, closed his eyes. Nearly a hundred tribes, a population of hundreds of millions, and only a few million captives remained—all from the tribes he had specifically marked.
He’s truly a god of slaughter.
Li Qiwen said with a complicated look, "Actually, having a god of slaughter isn’t entirely bad. At least that red cloud has pacified the restless elements in the city."
"By the way, City Lord, Roy heard that Jias from the Dawn Clan is a pseudo-Immortal. Jias once showed you disrespect, and Roy wants to challenge him."
"Hah, challenge an Immortal? Even a pseudo-Immortal isn’t someone a Golden Immortal can challenge. Absolutely not," Chen Jiuge flatly refused.
"Junior, you’re going too far!" Jias’s furious voice echoed throughout Jiaoying City.
"City Lord, it seems he went on his own."
"I heard," Chen Jiuge said, his expression darkening. But why was there a hint of terror in Jias’s voice?
Just as he stepped out of the Palace, Chen Jiuge saw a one-eyed, one-armed Shura Dharma severing the wings of Jias’s Angel Dharma Form. A Golden Immortal fighting an Immortal... and the Golden Immortal won?!
"This is what a Supreme Golden Immortal is," Luo Wencheng said with a complicated gaze.
"HAHAHAHA! You old thing, remember this! This is a city of us Asuras! You dared to disrespect the Divine Son? This is just a minor punishment."
"Now I’ll give you two choices: either submit to us, or I’ll slaughter you," Roy’s arrogant laughter rang out.
"What’s a Supreme Golden Immortal? And what’s with this Roy? Can a Golden Immortal really defeat an Immortal?" Chen Jiuge asked, his face filled with confusion.
Luo Wencheng tossed out a Jade Scroll, left a parting remark, and then departed.
"Both Roy and Luo Yue are Supreme Golden Immortals. Roy is stronger but not very clear-headed. Luo Yue is slightly weaker but quite clever. That line Roy just used? Eight out of ten says Luo Yue taught it to him."
Naturally, Jias couldn’t accept this. He was an Immortal! Even if only a pseudo-Immortal, he was still an Immortal. To be suppressed and beaten by a Golden Immortal—how could he ever face anyone again?!
"Qiuwen, after the fight is done, have Roy and Luo Yue come over."
