Chapter 597 - 3: Former Nemesis
"Erniu, long time no see!"
Zhou Xun looked at the honest man’s face and said with a smile.
"Big brother, it really is you!" Wang Erniu only then reacted, revealing a look of surprise and joy, then he sensed the mana of the Nascent Soul Stage emitting from Zhou Xun.
"Big brother... you’ve formed your Nascent Soul?"
"That’s right!" Zhou Xun nodded,
At this time, Wang Erniu’s three companions also came over, showing expressions of surprise and respect,
"Greetings, Elder! Thank you for saving our lives!"
"It was just a small effort. Besides, you are all Erniu’s companions, helping out was only right. You should thank Erniu!"
Zhou Xun waved his hand and then glanced at the Great Demons across from him.
Among the remaining thirteen Great Demons,
there were still three at Tier Three Peak, four at Middle-Grade, and six at Low-Grade.
"Esteemed Elder, we mean no offense. You have already defeated the ’Jiu Pin Demon King’. We humbly ask that you let us go!" said an unusual Great Demon with a crimson body, bird head, and fish body.
It was one of the remaining Tier Three Peak Great Demons!
"Fish Eagle Demon King, why are you afraid of him? The three of us joining forces, even if he’s a True Monarch Nascent Soul, so what!" sneered a nearby Shark Demon.
"Brother Shark, speak cautiously. This Human Race True Monarch easily defeated the ’Jiu Pin Demon King’ with one strike. He is not someone we can contend with!"
Fish Eagle Demon King advised through a message.
Then looking at Zhou Xun, he said:
"According to the convention on both sides, Fourth Realm cultivators do not interfere in Third Realm battles!"
"Is that so?" Zhou Xun turned around and asked Wang Erniu.
"Indeed, there is such a rule,"
"During the last great battle, neither side won. Instead, many were injured, and the two races returned to a standoff, forming this mutual understanding!"
Wang Erniu nodded.
"Not of our race, their hearts must be different. We cannot let go of any chance to diminish the opponent’s battle power!" Zhou Xun declared decisively!
Then with a wave of his hand,
a crimson giant tortoise, hundreds of feet in size, like a giant mountain, emerged from the sea, crushing down towards the dozen or so Demon Kings.
"Tier Four Demon Emperor!"
Li Fei and the others were greatly shocked.
"No need to panic, it’s just my mount!" Zhou Xun said calmly.
"What!" Upon hearing this, everyone was greatly astonished.
They never thought that this Elder, not only being formidable himself, would also have a Tier Four Demon Emperor as a mount. How come they’d never heard of his name before?
Among the hundreds of Nascent Soul cultivators in Sea Suppression Immortal City, there are only a handful who can have a Tier Four transformed Demon Beast as a mount.
However, with this, there are now two Fourth Realm existences on their side,
It is possible to capture all these Demon Kings in one go.
"Quick... kill!"
The quickest to react was Wang Erniu, his spell changed,
The hundred or so sword lights, like birds returning to their nest, merged into his Lifebound Flying Sword!
With each integration, the flying sword’s power increased!
Then he pointed towards a Middle-Grade Demon Beast across from him!
"Go!"
The sword light like a ribbon turned into a golden afterimage, spanning a thousand feet in an instant, piercing through the head of the Shrimp Demon, killing it instantly!
Li Fei and the others also reacted, using their various means to give chase!
Zhou Xun, on the other hand, with the Earth Element Beast, pursued the remaining two Tier Three Peak Great Demons!
...
Half an hour later, everyone gathered again, each with a long-lost smile, clearly having gained much.
This time, Li Fei stepped forward, bowing deeply before Zhou Xun, performing a solemn salute.
"Without you, Elder, we would almost have died without a place to be buried!"
Then he patted his storage bag and took out the Tier Three Low-Grade Great Demon he had slain,
"I was able to slay this demon entirely thanks to you, Elder. I humbly offer it to you and hope you will not disdain it!"
Looking at the sincere young man in front of him, Zhou Xun chuckled lightly.
"It’s just a Low-Grade Demon King, keep it for yourself!"
As a True Monarch of the Nascent Soul, he naturally wouldn’t covet a Tier Three Low-Grade Great Demon. It would be too ungracious, but this young man knew how to be appreciative.
"Thank you, True Monarch!"
"Alright, divide the spoils well, then we will set off for Sea Suppression Immortal City!" Zhou Xun said.
Soon, everyone finished sorting out the spoils,
Zhou Xun waved his hand, and the Red Tortoise swam over, coming to his side.
Zhou Xun leapt onto it, sitting cross-legged on the turtle’s back, he beckoned to Wang Erniu and the others to come up.
Wang Erniu heard this and without hesitation jumped up, sitting beside Zhou Xun,
As for Li Fei and the other two, they were a bit hesitant, glancing at each other, eager yet reluctant,
After all, this was a Tier Four Demon Emperor, akin to an elder to them,
They truly lacked the courage to sit on its back.
Zhou Xun noticed their concerns and said casually:
"It’s just a mount, what are you worried about?"
Regarding this Demon Turtle, Zhou Xun didn’t care much; it was just an old turtle with no potential, subdued under his great pressure.
Psychologically, this turtle was far from having the standing of the Earth Element Beast.
After all, Feng Chong served him for many years and was cultivated by him personally, akin to a direct subordinate.
"Friends, no need to worry, just come up!"
This time, the old turtle also spoke; it was both respectful and fearful of Zhou Xun.
Hearing Zhou Xun say this and with the old turtle speaking, Li Fei and the others finally jumped up.
Full of excitement, they looked around; this was a Tier Four Demon Emperor, equivalent to a Nascent Soul cultivator of the Human Race. They themselves had unexpectedly gained such a great blessing,
