War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens
chapter-2049

“By right, there should be no problem at Palace Master Zhu’s side. However, why do I feel slightly uneasy? I keep having a feeling that something’s about to happen.” This was not the first time Duan Ling Tian had this feeling. Previously, when he suddenly felt uneasy, something would happen eventually.

Duan Ling Tian would never expect that Zhu Lu Qi whom he had sent to warn the Azure Cloud Mansion in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land had accidentally been transported by the Inter-province Transportation Formation to the Land of Exile.

Since Zhu Lu Qi was not around, it was only natural the Azure Cloud Mansion did not receive any warning.

Currently, Li An and his men were fast approaching the Azure Cloud Mansion.

Meanwhile, the people from the Azure Cloud Mansion were completely unaware of this.

…

In the northern region of the Dao Martial Saint Land, a figure cloaked entirely in black was standing in front of an Inter-province Transportation Formation.

Three children, two girls and one boy, who appeared to be six to seven years old lay by his feet.

Among the two girls, one was clad in gold while the other was in white. Both of them still had baby fat on their faces, making them look very adorable. The boy, on the other hand, was dressed in black.

Compared to the black robe the standing man was wearing, the little boy’s black clothes did not hide his face. His face appeared aloof and cute.

If Duan Ling Tian was here, he would be able to recognize with a glance that the two little girls and the little boy were none other than the human forms of the little gold mouse and the two little pythons. It was Little Gold, Little White, and Little Black.

“I really don’t know what the Old Prophet is thinking. To think that he wants me to kidnap these three fellows and bring them back to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land when Han Xue Nai is not paying attention…” The man covered in a black cloak muttered to himself. His voice was neither masculine nor feminine. It was difficult to determine his gender based on his voice alone. “If that lass finds out about this, I’m going to be doomed!” The soft voice sounded again. A tinge of annoyance could be heard in his voice.

This black-robed man was none other than Yue Wu Ying, the current successor of the Seven Absolutes Sect’s Fourth Absolute, the Dark Shadow Progeny!

The three little fellows who originally followed Han Xue Nai to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land were knocked unconscious and kidnapped by him. He had done so under the instruction of the Old Prophet, the heir of the Seven Absolutes Sect’s Second Absolute, the Prophet Progeny. He had been told to find an opportunity when Han Xue Nai was not looking and bring these three little fellows to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

According to the Old Prophet, he had managed to divine that these three little fellows would encounter good fortune in the Lower Province. Yue Wu Ying had no idea what the good fortune was.

Since the Old Prophet was afraid Han Xue Nai would stop him, he had instructed Yue Wu Ying to stealthily bring these three little fellows back to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. Apart from that, he was told not to send them to the Greenwave Han Mansion or the Azure Cloud Mansion.

Yesterday, Yue Wu Ying finally found a chance to successfully kidnap the three little fellows.

“Don’t blame me, please. If you want to blame anyone, blame the Old Prophet! He’s the one who asked me to send three of you back to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint to fend for yourselves!” Yue Wu Ying shook his head as he raised his hand to bring the three little fellows with him as he flew into the Inter-province Transportation Formation.

As the Inter-province Transportation Formation flashed, Yue Wu Ying and the three little figures disappeared from sight.

After about half an hour, Yue Wu Ying returned from the eastern region of the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. After he confirmed the direction, he continued to make his way north.

Yue Wu Ying had left with the three little fellows. However, he had returned alone!

…

In the Land of Exile or also known as the Exiled Realm among the Devil Clan.

The Ox Devil Clan was a great clan in the Exiled Realm. They had many powerhouses in their clan. For many years, they had taken great pains to try and enter the Saint Province Realm, but they had failed time and time again.

The Saint Province Realm referred to the realm that housed the entire Dao Martial Saint Land and the three great Mortal Continents.

The estate of the Ox Devil Clan occupied a vast land. They had a huge public square in the center of the estate.

Today, the public square was filled with people.

No! To be more accurate, it was filled with Ox Devils!

The members of the Ox Devil Clan had very obvious characteristics since they all possessed human bodies but the heads of oxen. Apart from their heads, they were no different from humans. This included their intelligence.

Currently, the Ox Devil Clan’s members surrounded the public square as they stared at a human who was tied up there.

That was right! A human being! There were no humans to be found in the Exiled Realm!

“This is a human?”

“It seems like it. I feel this human is quite similar to us. He has two hands and two legs!”

“Huh? How’s he similar to us?! Our Ox Devil Clan is not so short! And he’s so fair as well. He’s just too ugly. Look at our tan and healthy skin. This is the skin a warrior should have!”

“Exactly! Look at how fair he is! He’s a complete softie! No wonder he’s caught by the warriors from our Ox Devil Clan!”

“Humans are weak!”

This was the first time the Ox Devil Clan’s members had ever seen a human. They discussed among themselves as they pointed at the human tied up in the public square.

Not even in Zhu Lu Qi’s wildest dreams would he expect that one day he would become a show-piece!

Zhu Lu Qi shuddered even though it was not cold when he looked at the monsters with huge builds. They all had the bodies of humans but the heads of an ox. They were one of the Devil Clans in the Land of Exile, the Ox Devil Clan!

He had also read about the Devil Clan’s Ox Devil Clan in the ancient books in the Four Symbols Sanctum’s White Tiger Sanctum. The members of the Ox Devil Clan were born warriors. They had huge builds and excelled in hand-to-hand combat!

During the Human-Devil Era, the Ox Devil Clan served as one of the vanguards during the Great Human-Devil War. They had killed and crippled many humans. They could be considered as enemies of humankind.

Zhu Lu Qi did not expect that one day he would meet the devils from the Ox Devil Clan in such a way. Moreover, he was currently a prisoner in the Ox Devil Clan!

“Huh?” Suddenly, Zhu Lu Qi realized that the group of Ox Devils had moved aside as a low growl sounded from outside. Then, he saw the two Ox Devils who had captured him.

The two Ox Devils were escorting another Ox Devil who was as huge as a small hill as they made their way to him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

This Ox Devil was about seven to eight meters tall, two to three times bigger than an ordinary Ox Devil. With every step that he took, his gigantic body caused the ground to rumble and quake.

He gradually walked to Zhu Lu Qi. The closer he got to Zhu Lu Qi, the more Zhu Lu Qi felt the quake.

The instant he appeared, the group of Ox Devils in the public square had fallen silent. They all turned to look at this huge Ox Devil respectfully.

“It’s indeed a human being!” The huge Ox Devil stood near Zhu Lu Qi and looked at him. When he spoke, his voice rattled Zhu Lu Qi’s eardrums, causing him to feel pain.

‘How powerful!’ Zhu Lu Qi was being pressured by the huge Ox Devil’s aura.

In fact, the huge Ox Devil did not intentionally pressure Zhu Lu Qi with his aura at all. Based on this, one could tell how terrifyingly strong this Ox Devil was!

“Tenth elder, he’s the human we found outside,” the two Ox Devils explained. Their tones were modest and respectful.

‘Tenth elder?!’ Zhu Lu Qi’s eyes widened in confusion. Based on what he knew, the strongest devil in the Ox Devil Clan was the Clan Leader. Under the Clan Leader, there were ten elders.

During the war, the number of human powerhouses who were slain by the ten powerhouses from the Ox Devil Clan was simply innumerable. Naturally, Zhu Lu Qi knew the current Clan Leader and the ten elders from the Ox Devil Sect were different from the devils before. Those devils had died as time passed! As for those extremely strong devils, once they attained immortality, they would ascend to a Devata Realm. In this regard, the Exiled Realm was similar to the Saint Province Realm.

“Good job! Both of you deserve credit for this. I’ll look for Lord Clan Leader later and ask him to reward both of you!” The Ox Devil, the tenth elder, said. His voice sounded like claps of thunder. He looked at Zhu Lu Qi curiously.

Zhu Lu Qi had prepared himself and used his Saint Origin to protect his ears so it was no longer as painful as before.

…

In the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.

A group of uninvited guests had shown up at the estate of the quasi third-rate force, the Azure Cloud Mansion.

This group of uninvited guests charged into the Azure Cloud Mansion without warning and left corpses of Black Armored Guards who tried to stop them in their wake.

Whether it was the Black Armored Army, the Decurion or the Centurion, none of them was a match for this group of people who was led by an old man!

The old man did not attack at all. He left it all to the people following behind him.

Since the people behind the old man were already so strong, everyone could tell the old man in the lead was even stronger.

“W-who are you?” The group of Black Armored Guards shuddered when faced with this group of menacing people. At the same time, they continued to retreat until they were close to the Main Mansion of the Azure Cloud Mansion.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this moment, the old man in the lead came to a halt. The people behind him followed suit.

The old man in the lead looked at the Black Armored Guards and said indifferently, “I’m Li An!”
