Having ruled the world in their time, this kind of ambition would obviously not get away.
And with their current power, even if the mortal men had numerous advances in weaponry, they would still not be able to stop them.
The best example would be how he was still fine even when those small cannon bullets were fired upon his head.
General Xue knew that if it was before when he was alive and had the meagre strength which he had before his death, then just even a single fire from the hand cannon would have been enough to take his life.
And that was even after his strength was enough to withstand the onslaught of tens of men against him.
But with this weapon, which he had faced right now, he was sure that he won't have even known how he died if he didn't have his current strength and his indestructible body.
During all these years, there had rarely been times when he had come out of his coffin and even if he did, he had not mustered up much longer than the mountain where his coffin was located.
So even if he knew that the mortals had advanced in many ways, but he was not sure of what they were.
But seeing the weaponry which was used right now, was barely even as big as his own lower arm but still had the strength and was destructive enough to easily puncture at least ten of steel armours during his time, he just somehow was delighted that his body was so strong if not then he might have lost his life to these puny mortals who didn't even have a fraction of his own strength.
But just when he was about to drag the vessel which he had been ordered to get for his master and make her unconscious, the Corpse General felt a tremendous amount of heat rising above is head.
In fact, he would already hear that the air above his head seemed to be sizzling just format eh high temperature.
If the temperature was quite a lot then one would even hear the air crackling.
The small amount of hair that was still present on his scalp was also making sizzling sounds while the bandages which were wrapped around his face for about a millennium had also started to make crackling sounds as if a piece of cloth was being set on fire.
Of course, even if he could not feel the pain in his body, he had not lost his sense to know that there was something wrong.
Ghost General Xue instantly jerked his head above while still holding Yuan Meng's wrist.
Right now, Yuan Meng's wrist was being pulled by the Corpse General, meanwhile, Yuan Meng had also completely disregarded the thought of struggle after seeing Ye Qian in such great pain.
She knew that it was because of her that Ye Qian had to suffer, if she was not here right now then Ye Qian might have used his strongest power to completely remove this scourge, but Ye Qian was also worried about her being harmed in the instance he lost control of his strength.
Even if Ye Qian might not say anything about this, Yuan Meng was well aware of Ye Qian's intentions and the way he would think.
But that only made Yuan Meng feel sadder knowing that she was also half of the reason why Ye Qian was in such a dire situation.
Although she could feel the heat above them rising to a tremendous degree, but she was not experiencing the same condition as the Corpse General.
It was because all the fire was being targeted upon General Xue.
Meanwhile, as he jerked his head above to see what was the thing that was coming towards him in a flash, the remaining eye of the Corpse General widened for a moment before his lips curved into a sneer at the corner of his lips.
"Trying to burn me with fire, keke, you must be dreaming."
A mock left from his throat while the sound was similar to that of bones being ground.
But that mock and cold sneer which appeared on his lips could only last for half a moment when Ye Qian was about more than 10 meters above his head.
It was because, as Ye Qian's fist got closer to him, the dreadful aura he felt from the flame burning in Ye Qian's fist made all his body turn cold.
He was a corpse, even if he was to be left in places with ice with absolutely no support even then he would be fine.
As for fire, it would only be a joke for any ordinary fire to turn him into ashes, in fact, he even wondered that given his current strength even if he were to get close to a volcano's mouth would there be any effect on him?
But the handful amount of fire which was on the fist of this young man who also had his face turned completely pale made him feel such dread that he had never felt.
In fact, he had never even had this kind of feeling when he faces the wrath of his master the last time when the vessel had been killed due to him.
When he raised his head and saw a thin trail of blood flowing from the corner of Ye Qian's lips, he knew that this young man was nothing but an arrow at its end.
And in not any more than a few moments would die by his own hands.
But even before he could think of how he was going to enjoy killing this young man who had broken a few of his bones, and the fist covered in fire continued to get closer to him with each flash of a moment.
He felt as if this fire would at the very least eradicate him into nothingness.
This kind of feeling was something that he had never felt even from his master.
