“Hahaha!”

Cang Ming burst into laughter once again.

His laughter echoed through the sky.

“Did you say that it depends on whether I’m actually capable of that? You’ll naturally find out when the time comes!”

After Cang Ming had spoken, his subordinates immediately charged towards Gu Ruoyun’s group. Their powerful auras crashed down from the sky to the extent that the once blue sky turned gray and blurry as if the sky was polluted with ashes.

“Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Turtle.”

Gu Ruoyun looked at the black mass of people and ordered calmly, “I’ll leave these people to the four of you!”

The spiritual beasts’ in Gu Ruoyun’s possession had grown substantially in power during the past few years. The Azure Dragon and the other three Divine Beasts were the ones who had grown the most as well! They were already quite powerful to begin with and if they had not been threatened by humans in the past, their powers would never have regressed to such a degree!

Hence, restoring their powers had come very naturally to them.

Also, the Four Divine Beasts had revealed to Gu Ruoyun that it had been Cang Ming’s subordinates who had tried to force them into a contract in the past! However, they had failed to do so back then! Despite that, they had still sustained heavy injuries.

“Hmph, I didn’t expect these four beasts to choose you in the end! However, I no longer need them now! Since that’s the case, I shall allow these Four Divine Beasts to accompany you to your grave!”

Cang Ming laughed icily.

He was still sealed in the formation back then. Hence, he could only rely on his subordinates to do his bidding! One of his orders was to subdue the Four Divine Beasts! However, he never thought that Gu Ruoyun would manage to obtain the Ancient Divine Phoenix Zixie as well as the Four Divine Beasts! How could he accept that?

He would never allow others to even think of owning things that he does not own!

The Four Divine Beasts did not hesitate as they charged immediately towards the group and released an immorally cruel massacre upon the humans beneath them!

The Azure Dragon’s dragon’s breath, the Vermillion Bird’s flames, the White Tiger’s claws, and the Black Turtle’s hard shell were indestructible weapons! Furthermore, spiritual beasts have always been more powerful than humans. Hence, Cang Ming’s subordinates had no way of defending themselves against the Four Divine Beasts’ attack...

Cang Ming stood aside and watched coldly as his subordinates were massacred. He has no intention of stepping in to save them at all. To him, these people were merely his weapons in this battle.

Even if they die, that was their purpose as weapons!

“Bunch of useless good-for-nothings!”

Cang Ming’s expression grew even uglier when he saw that the people by his side have fallen into a pool of blood. He scoffed coldly, “They are still useless even after all these years! Gu Ruoyun, I should thank your spiritual beasts for opening my eyes to my useless subordinates. However, it’s very unfortunate that no matter how powerful your spiritual beasts are, there are only four of them. I have more than ten thousand subordinates, their number is endless!”

Just as Cang Ming had spoken, a voice suddenly chimed in from the sky, “My Lord, Lady Gu, are we too late?”

After that mysterious voice had spoken, numerous figures descended from the sky.

Three old men, who were Qianbei Ye’s subordinates in the Underworld, were at the front of the group. When Cang Ming had impersonated Qianbei Ye in the Underworld, these three old men had realized this and led the citizens loyal to Qianbei Ye out of the Underworld.

Once they had received word about Cang Ming’s attack on Qianbei Ye, they then immediately led those people out to help with the battle.

“No, that’s not right. We shouldn’t call you Lady Gu, you should be addressed as the Palace Lord instead.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

An old man who was dressed in white robes smiled at Gu Ruoyun. “Our Lord has already given the Underworld to you so you are our rightful Palace Lord. Hence, allow me to be so bold as to ask you to lead us into battle.”
