Chapter 4984: Seeing The Little Girl Again
Their conversation was interrupted by a member who came in for a report.
âCity Lord, there is a challenger outside. Several demon monarchs have been injured already.â
âA challenger?â Goldcrest frowned.
âLooks like you have a lot of enemies, Brother Goldcrest.â Yunyun chuckled.
He smiled wryly and said: âI really donât since Iâve always focused on the dao.â
âThey might be here for the god source.â He paused for a second before adding.
âIf thatâs the case, it doesnât bode well for your city.â Li Qiye said.
Goldcrest knew Li Qiye was right. Countless demons desired the remnant pieces right now in order to improve their power.
âLetâs go take a look.â Goldcrest said. The enemy was already knocking on the door; he couldnât be a coward and hide.
They climbed up the city wall in order to see the challenger.
Meanwhile, demon monarchs of Phoenix took this very seriously. Several members have been wounded already.
âRooster, come out here, I want to see your real form.â A pleasant voice came from beneath.
Li Qiye and the others found this all too familiar.
Goldcrest looked down and saw a cute girl posing aggressively with both hands on her waist.
âPrincess Ming Shi.â He smiled wryly and didnât expect this.
âYou have been a bad boy.â She leaped into the air and unleashed a fist containing a majestic dao.
The demons shuddered after seeing her attack.
She was a Supreme Sovereign from Untethered - an orthodox sect specialized in the dao. Thus, her techniques contained immense power.
He laughed and placed his arms together, summoning white wings to form a shield.
âBoom!â He didnât even move from the punch since his empowered form boosted him to the next level.
âRooster, why did you hide your real identity? A monarch pretending to be a lowly demon in Abroad.â Ming Shi demanded an answer.
âYour Highness, I never pretended to be a lowly demon.â He said.
âYou didnât tell us your true background.â Ming Shi said.
Fortunately for Goldcrest, Yunyun joined the conversation: âWhy are you here, Ming Shi?â
âYunyun, Young Noble?! Why are you two here as well?â Ming Shi said.
âWeâre tracking someone.â Yunyun said.
âIâm here with the seniors. We passed by this place and my senior aunt said something about a city lord known as Goldcrest, thatâs why Iâm here to teach him a lesson.â
âTendril King is here too?â Goldcrest clicked his tongue in admiration.
âIndeed, I told them I have a friend here so they went ahead.â She smiled.
Tendril King might be her senior but was still considered as part of the young generation. Her talent and power far exceeded them. Even Radiant Young Monarch couldnât hold a candle to her. [1]
She was a dragon lord with five sacred fruits, rumored to be training with an ancient art. Given her talent, she was qualified to enter the upper continents and still be a top dog there.
âRooster, I bet you were afraid of us coming here and taking your stuff since youâre a rich city lord. Lying to us is unforgivable.â Ming Shi regained her focus.
âNo, I merely didnât comment on it, please forgive me.â He said before changing the topic: âTendril King is incredible, how does she know what is going on in Demon as well?â
Others didnât know about his background but Tendril King was able to spot Phoenix and knew about him. It seemed that she had great knowledge of the region.
âOf course, my senior aunt will be the ruler of Untethered, nothing can elude her eyes.â Ming Shi said proudly.
âIndeed, we will never be able to catch up.â Yunyun said sentimentally.
She had a chance of becoming the ruler of Primal in the future. Alas, she felt inferior and unworthy when compared to Tendril King.
âWhy are your seniors here?â Goldcrest asked.
Cultivators such as Tendril King didnât travel for no reason. Normally, these big shots would just stay and protect their sect. Therefore, something big must be happening.
âShe said that your Peacock Monarch is near death, a visit is necessary.â Ming Shi said.
âSo sheâs here for the god sources too, how did the information get out so fast?â Goldcrest shuddered.
âYou got one?â Ming Shi asked.
âAhemâ¦â Goldcrest cleared his throat and didnât answer.
âPlease, I donât care for it but hehehe, my senior aunt might. If you donât hand it over, sheâll chop off your head.â Ming Shi gave him the side eye.
âWhy is Tendril King interested in the god sources?â Yunyun asked.
It was understandable for demons in the Ten Great Mountains to desire the god source. Tendril King was also a demon but not part of this system.
âThe Demon Godâs divine nest, surely.â Li Qiye said.
âExactly, Young Noble. My aunt wishes to enter the divine nest.â Ming Shi said.
âIs it possible?â Yunyun heard legends that this enigmatic place couldnât be visited by just anyone.
