God Emperor - Chapter 1296

Chapter 1296: 1296

 Countless blood-red lines appeared on the ground . They were like thousands upon thousands of bloody creeks . Covering hundreds of miles on the ground, even the sky turned red from the reflection .

All the Blood Saints from the Motian, Qitian, and Fengtian Tribes came out of the bloody creeks . There were close to 20 Blood Saints combined .

Among them, the leaders of the three tribes were all top figures . Their abilities were comparable to Zhu Qingyi .

Faced with such a strong group, Martial Saint Canglan’s expression changed . Instead of choosing to clash head-on, she chose to retreat immediately, rushing into Xianji Mountain with the other Saints .

“I’ve always wanted one of the Nine Heavenly Maidens as a mistress . Martial Saint Canglan is a good choice, haha . ”

The leader of the Motian Tribe was Blood Saint Miefeng . He was 30 feet tall and his body was as thick as a millstone . He laughed heartily and grabbed a silver sword . He rushed forward and cut down before Martial Saint Canglan and the Twelve White Feather Saints, stopping them from leaving .

Sword Qi flowed like a river . It was thousands of meters long and swept downward . Every Sword Qi that landed would cut a huge trench on the ground .

Martial Saint Canglan huffed coldly . She twisted her attractive body and the saint sword on her back flew out of its sheath . Like a beam of white light, it crashed against Blood Saint Miefeng’s battle sword .

Boom .

White fog trembled violently . Countless beams of Sword Qi surged, producing loud whistles .

In the end, Blood Saint Miefeng couldn’t block Martial Saint Canglan’s sword technique . Sword Qi fell upon him like rain, crashing against his armor .

“As expected of the Nine Heavenly Maidens . You’re indeed powerful . ”

After Blood Saint Miefeng flew back, there were various dents in his armor . Blood Qi surged within him . If his defenses weren’t strong enough, he might have been injured already .

After all, Blood Saint Miefeng was a Heaven Pass Blood General . Among the Immortal Vampires, only the strongest of the Heaven Pass Realm Saints could qualify for that title . They were known as the strongest of all beings below the True Saint Realm .

There were only a few Heaven Pass Blood Generals in each tribe . Each of them was a mighty figure . If they used their hidden cards, they could even fight with a True Saint .

“She defeated Blood Saint Miefeng with one strike . She can’t be underestimated . ”

Zhu Qingyi’s eyes turned even colder . She transformed into black smoke and chased into Xianji Mountain . She carried overwhelming murderous Qi . There was no way she could let Martial Saint Canglan and the Twelve White Feather Saints leave .

At the same time, the other three leaders and Blood Saints of the four tribes transformed into streaks of light . With loud booms, they pursued from different directions .

A moment later, deafening battle explosions sounded within Xianji Mountain . The beasts all fled in fear . Some ran out of the mountain; others escaped deep into the mountain .

Zhang Ruochen, Huang Yanchen, and Qing Mo walked out of the white fog . They looked toward the source of the noise .

Their eyes were all solemn and grave . There were large amounts of Saints from both the imperial court and Immortal Vampires in Xianji Mountain . It definitely wasn’t good news .

“They have the same goal as us . They’re here for Gu Songzi too . ” Huang Yanchen’s eyes were filled with worry .

The Pill Saint that the Crazy Alcoholic spoke of was named Gu Songzi .

“How come I heard that Gu Songzi received the formula for the Hua Divine Pill,” Qing Mo said . “The Hua Divine Pill is a legendary Divine Pill . It’s like a Saintly Source . As long as a Half-Saint ingests the Hua Divine Pill, he’ll have a very big chance of becoming a Saint . ”

Zhang Ruochen naturally knew the value of the Hua Divine Pill . Apparently, a Pill Sect in the middle ages was able to produce this kind of pill and created a golden era . Merely one sect was able to produce thousands of Saints .

Unfortunately, great goods come with great losses . The Hua Divine Pill was honestly too valuable and countless people were jealous . The sect was met with disaster and destroyed by a mysterious force .

After the sect was destroyed, the formula for the Hua Divine Pill disappeared too .

“I don’t know where they got the information,” Zhang Ruochen said . “However, if the formula reappears, the various forces will definitely act as soon as they get the news . We must find Senior Gu Songzi before them . ”

“But large amounts of Immortal Vampire Saints have entered Xianji Mountain,” Qing Mo said, a bit worried . “If we run into them, we’ll be dead . ”

“The Immortal Vampires want to kill me, but I want to kill them too . It should be time that the Shi Family has finished producing the Blood Repression Runes . ”

Murderous intent emerged in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes .

Before going to the Yin Yang Sea, Zhang Ruochen had sent ten million drops of divine blood to the Shi Family so they could help produce Blood Repression Runes . If this batch was fully completed, Zhang Ruochen could kill whoever he wanted when faced with the Immortal Vampires .

He could even repress a strong cultivator like Zhu Qingyi .

“Yanchen,” he said . “Visit the Pluto Sword Tomb and take out that batch of Blood Repression Runes for me . ”

Huang Yanchen was clear about the current situation too . Pondering, she said, “I’ll go to the Pluto Sword Tomb alone . Qing Mo will remain to protect you . With your current health, you can’t force anything when you run into danger . ”

“Don’t worry . I’m not unreasonable like that . ” Zhang Ruochen smiled .

Huang Yanchen turned to leave .

“Yanchen,” Zhang Ruochen called .

Then he walked over and caressed her snow-white cheek with a hand . He pressed a light kiss onto her lips .

Huang Yanchen blushed and actually grew nervous . She stopped breathing and her long lashes trembled . The two stared at each other, eyes filled with emotion .

A moment later, their lips separated .

“You should be careful too,” Zhang Ruochen reminded . “Battle has erupted everywhere in Kunlun’s Field . Nowhere is safe . ”

After Huang Yanchen left, Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo also entered Xianji Mountain .

This wasn’t only one mountain . Instead, Xianji Mountain was a cluster of rolling mountains and forests . It took up a very large expanse . Even Saints would have difficulty going deep into it .

The sounds of battle were scattered in different directions . Clearly, the four Immortal Vampire tribes and Martial Saint Canglan and the Twelve White Feather Saints had separated into different battlefields .

Or, one party was executing a siege .

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to get involved in their battle . With his white robes, he looked like a weak scholar and hurried along the road .

Qing Mo followed behind him without any of a Saint’s presence . She was no different from a little servant .

Hearing the battles, she seemed anxious . Her eyes kept darting around and her lips quivered . Finally, she couldn’t help it anymore . “Lord, Martial Saint Canglan and the Twelve White Feather Saints aren’t the Immortal Vampires’ match . Shouldn’t we help them?”

“I don’t have anything to do with them . Why should I take such a large risk to help them?” Zhang Ruochen asked in return without looking back .

Martial Saint Canglan and the Twelve White Feather Saints were Chi Yao’s guards, but Zhang Ruochen didn’t transfer his hatred of Chi Yao onto them . It was just like how he didn’t hate the Saint Lady, one of the Nine Heavenly Maidens, and instead saw her as a close friend .

He didn’t want to fight because he was heavily injured . He couldn’t even protect himself, so he obviously couldn’t help others and get into more trouble .

“Now, the most important task is to find Gu Songzi and repair my meridians . ”

Qing Mo wanted to persuade Zhang Ruochen . “But a human Saintess will definitely be humiliated at the hands of the Immortal Vampires,” she continued . “Especially Martial Saint Canglan, one of the Nine Heavenly Maidens . If she’s captured, this will affect the entire human army’s morale . If Zhilin Pass is breached, the Immortal Vampires will conquer Red River Mansion . How many more humans will die? How many more will become the food of the Immortal Vampires?

“Lord, you’ve always cared for humanity . You’re not as cold as you seem . Can you really stand seeing the Immortal Vampires humiliate the humans?”

Zhang Ruochen stopped walking and turned . He stared into Qing Mo’s eyes . Qing Mo hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to meet Zhang Ruochen’s gaze .

“Who taught you to say that? Yanchen?”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t think that Qing Mo was wise enough to say those words . Not only was she able to analyze everything, she’d also given him the lofty title of caring for humanity .

Qing Mo didn’t reply .

Kaboom .

Up ahead, strong Holy Qi swept through the entire mountain . A black sickle flew over Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo’s heads . Then came a woman’s pained cry .

Drops of saintly blood rained down .

With a thud, a female Saint in white armor fell into the forest not far from Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo . All the trees there toppled, turning into decaying dirt .

That female Saint was badly injured . She clutched her stomach where there was a long bloody gash . What weapon had hurt her?

Evil black Qi flowed out of her injury, shrouding her slender frame . Her pallor was sickly pale and her expression was pained .

Whoosh!

Another Saintess in white flew down, flapping her wings . She held a saintly sword . Hurriedly helping the Saintess up, she said, “Yuansu, I’ll help you leave . ”

“You want to leave?” A cold laugh rang out .

Then a Blood Saint with a menacing face charged out of the white fog . He held a sickle stained with blood and had a pair of blood wings . He blocked the two Saintess’ exit path .

Another bald Blood Saint also ran out . Eyes filled with lust, he sneered and said, “I heard that you 72 Saintesses all live in Ziwei Palace . You’re the closest officials to the Empress . Usually, you’re all high and mighty . Even the county and region lords have to be polite with you . I wonder what those humans who view you as goddesses will think if I capture one of you and turn you into a sex slave . Ha . ”

Three more Blood Saints hurried over .

Five Blood Saints in total surrounded the two Saintesses . They all laughed as if already declaring their fate .
