Chapter 64: News from the Ancestral Mansion

“What gave you the guts to fight me?” Demon Monarch Poison Pool was enraged. He was a second Firmament demon monarch after all! Yet, these two newly-advanced Godfiends wanted to join forces to kill him? What a joke.

The furious Poison Pool’s black poisonous fog expanded rapidly, quickly covering a thousand-foot area.

Poison? A different black fog also began to surround Liu Yebai’s body. It quickly spread out, forcing the Poison Pool’s poisonous fog to recede.

A domain? Poison Pool was alarmed. Some Godfiends specialized in domains, and Fairy Meng from the Meng family happened to be one of the best. His poisonous fog was completely suppressed. He had encountered another expert who was adept at domains.

Liu Yebai’s domain seemed to sink Poison Pool into a swamp.

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

Meng Dajiang charged head-on while Liu Yebai attacked from the flanks with his sword.

I can kill both of you in a head-on battle. Poison Pool brandished his spear and attacked with immense strength. However, Meng Dajiang used his saber art to take the hits head-on. Liu Yebai’s unpredictable movement allowed him to carry out sneak attacks. Within the black fog domain, seven Liu Yebais appeared. Each Liu Yebai attacked silently before retreating into the black fog and disappearing.

“Scram!”

Poison Pool swung his spear in a sweeping motion and struck one of the Liu Yebais. The Liu Yebai collapsed into the black fog and dissipated. Clearly, it wasn’t his real body.

Boom! Meng Dajiang swung his saber, and Poison Pool hurriedly blocked it.

Swish! Another Liu Yebai shot out from the black fog and stabbed Poison Pool’s back with lightning speed.

However, the ten-foot-thick, black fog around Poison Pool was extremely tough. Liu Yebai barely managed to penetrate the black fog—leaving only a small wound on Poison Pool—before his attack lost all momentum. Liu Yebai’s pupils constricted as he immediately retreated.

…

In one of the residential ruins in Eastcalm City, two Godfiends engaged in a battle against Demon Monarch Poison Pool. Their strength left Meng Chuan gasping in amazement, and he quickly realized the difference in strength between himself and the two Godfiends.

Mortal to Godfiend…

It was a leap in strength, and the gap was astonishing.

According to what the demon monarch said, Father is a Body Tempering Godfiend? He is able to face the demon monarch head-on, while Uncle Liu is more slippery and crafty. He keeps ambushing him, never attacking head-on. They have great teamwork, probably a result after countless battles together. Meng Chuan watched the duo’s seamless cooperation. One charged and attacked head-on, while the other dealt sinister ambushes.

Poison Pool was blocked by Meng Dajian every time he tried to go after Liu Yebai. Poison Pool quickly suffered dozens of blows as the battle progressed. The two Godfiends were extremely powerful, causing him to be injured badly.

Twelve out of eighteen commanders have died. Ever since the two Godfiends started fighting me, no other commanders have been killed. It seems that the incognito Godfiends were these two. It’s obvious they reached the Core Cloud realm recently, making them comparable to first Firmament demon monarchs. However, they have rich combat experience and excellent teamwork. I can’t gain the upper hand if they are working together. Although the Body Tempering Godfiend is quite injured, my injuries aren’t much better either. I’ve been maintaining the forbidden spell for quite some time. If I give up now, I’ll have to recuperate for months when I’m back at the fief. If I continue using the forbidden spell, I might damage my foundation.

Poison Pool didn’t want to risk his life. He had been maintaining his forbidden spell for far too long! He had been using a forbidden spell since he had started chasing Meng Chuan…

He couldn’t kill or wear down the Body Tempering Godfiend expert, and there was still the sinister Godfiend—who could continuously ambush him thanks to his skill in domains. Poison Pool felt extremely miserable.

I think the only plan is to kill the three powerful Godfiends at Jadesun Palace first. After that, I’ll lead the demons with Whitesink, Ape, and Domineering Roar, and annihilate Eastcalm Prefecture’s humans. Poison Pool did not hesitate as he turned around and fled.

Swoosh.

With the use of a forbidden spell, Poison Pool was extremely fast—even faster than when Meng Chuan went all out. He was faster than both Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai.

He didn’t flee in Meng Chuan’s direction, so Liu Yebai and Meng Dajiang didn’t stop him or pursue him.

“That second Firmament demon monarch is truly powerful.” Only then did Liu Yebai stop his forbidden Godfiend spell. He couldn’t help but sigh in amazement. “The two of us were going all out, but we barely came to a draw. He probably doesn’t know that you’ll be out of the fight once all that meat on you is expended.”

Meng Dajiang had already lost more than five kilograms since he had appeared to rescue Meng Chuan. He said, “Humph, this demon monarch had cast a forbidden spell for too long. If we had continued fighting, I would’ve only lost mass, while he would’ve damaged his foundation.”

Whoosh.

From afar, Meng Chuan rushed over.

Liu Yebai’s body was shrouded in black fog, and his face was obscured from view. “You have to keep our identities a secret.” After sending a voice transmission, he immediately phased away and left the father-and-son duo alone.

“Mmm?” Meng Chuan saw Liu Yebai quickly leaving after he arrived and was stunned.

Whoosh. Meng Dajiang came to his son’s side. Meng Dajiang’s body was covered in the sanguine aura; his face was faintly discernible underneath the aura.

“Dad.”

“I knew it,” said Meng Dajiang as he nodded. “You can sense aura within half a kilometer. Uncle Liu and I cannot escape your detection.”

The power that Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai had used was different from usual. Normally, they would only use physical strength and Quintessential Energy.

But just now, Meng Dajiang had used a special sanguine aura. Liu Yebai had used a domain technique. Even people who knew him wouldn’t be able to recognize the sanguine aura and domain technique due to their concealment.

However, Meng Chuan’s “sense” could detect not only Quintessential Essence and demonic energy, but also aura signatures. No matter how much one tried to disguise themselves, their aura signature would never change.

“Uncle Liu and I hide our strength due to special reasons,” said Meng Dajiang. “You have to keep it a secret for us.”

“Understood.” Meng Chuan nodded.

They were Godfiends, but they had hidden their true identities and lived in Eastcalm Prefecture. They definitely had their secrets. Since his father and Uncle Liu weren’t willing to explain, probing further would be meaningless.

“Let’s go. Follow me to Mirror Lake Dao Academy,” said Meng Dajiang. “From now on, you have to stay by my side constantly.”

“Yes, Dad,” replied Meng Chuan.

“Don’t call me dad in public, or you’ll expose my identity,” said Meng Dajiang with a smile.

Meng Chuan nodded immediately. “I understand.”

With his father—a Godfiend—around, he felt more at ease.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Enveloped by the sanguine aura, Meng Dajiang and Meng Chuan rushed towards the Dao Academy—their speeds equal.

“Uncle Liu and I have our own matters. When we discovered the demons invading, we separated. He headed for Blazing Sun Dao Academy, and I headed to the ancestral mansion and Mirror Lake Meng Manor. We would kill demon commanders along the way,” said Meng Dajiang via voice transmission. “Thankfully, you created a huge commotion while escaping the demon monarch. I finally found you and managed to save you from that perilous situation.”

“If you had been any slower, I might have really died.” Meng Chuan was also feeling a little scared.

“Who would have thought that the demons would invade?” Meng Dajiang shook his head.

“Dad, how’s the ancestral mansion?” asked Meng Chuan.

Meng Dajiang said, “Our Meng family is one of the five Godfiend family clans. Our luck wasn’t that good. A demon army attacked the ancestral mansion. By the time I arrived, there were already casualties… Four Elders died. By the way, Third Elder is also dead.”

“Third Elder?” Meng Chuan was taken aback.

The bald, thin Third Elder had left a deep impression on him. He was fierce to the juniors and was cold and old-fashioned. If anyone dared to disobey him, he would lash out with his walking stick. It left quite the trauma on Meng Chuan when he was young.

However, after he figured out the secret technique, Third Elder had given him a remnant page of a Godfiend legacy. He insisted that he kept it.

“Third Elder is very strong,” Meng Chuan murmured.

“That’s right. He’s one of the strongest in the entire family clan. If he were careful, he would’ve survived. However, he was being himself. He led the charge and defended the young ones. In the end, a demon’s tentacle pierced through his chest and killed him,” said Meng Dajiang via voice transmission. He was in a bad mood. After all, they were his elders.

Meng Dajiang glanced at his son and said with a voice transmission, “Don’t think about it too much. Third Elder did so willingly. I know his temper, and he will definitely be very pleased that he managed to protect so many young people. If you can enter Archean Mountain and become a Godfiend, Third Elder will probably laugh out loud in his grave.”

“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded slightly.
