Chapter 771: Subdue

An hour later, Gao Peng had obtained all the information he wanted to know after asking them questions.

These people were from the Dark Spirit World.

A world even further away than the Black Fog World.

They had traveled across numerous worlds to evade their enemies’ pursuit before wandering to the Black Fog World. Before they had arrived at the Black Fog World, they did not know that the human race existed in this world.

Of course, from the outset, their intended destination had been the Jiutian Shidi. The Black Fog World was just a midway stop they happened to pass by.

Due to the exceedingly large size of the Continent Emperor Turtle, it could not pass through typical passageways.

They had especially headed here because they had heard that there was an extraordinarily large tunnel in the Black Fog World.

The reason they were being hunted down was very simple too. It was because the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle had embarked on the Path of Usurpation for the Wind Precepts. The competition on the Path of Usurpation was necessarily cruel.

They did not know how news of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle embarking on the Path of Usurpation had leaked out. Thereafter, the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle was furiously challenged and pursued.

That very night, a monster came to challenge it. Although that monster retreated after being attacked, it was heavily injured as well.

Invitations to battle came one after another.

During this process, they saw several powerful beings too.

Among the ten projections of the King of Dreams, two of them originated from these powerful beings. The remaining eight projections were Gods. As the King of Dreams did not have sufficient power of its own to create illusions at the God Tier, the perception it gave to Ji Hanwu and the rest was that of eight extremely powerful Quasi Gods.

“Is the Path of Usurpation so intense?”

Hearing this, Gao Peng could not stop frowning.

He remembered that Flamy had embarked on this exact strange thing. She had also attained the ability to devour other flames and thereby strengthen her original flame.

The road Flamy had embarked on was the Fire-type Path of Usurpation. As for the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle, although it had embarked on the Wind-type Path of Usurpation, it was a different route.

However, given that the Wind-type Path of Usurpation was already this cruel, there was no reason that the Fire-type Path of Usurpation could be this safe.

After all, in theory, the number of Fire-type monsters in this world should exceed the number of Wind-type monsters.

Therefore, Flamy would only have more and more competitors.

Gao Peng recalled the scene where he had met the outdated antiques of the Bi Fang Clan. Now, the confusion deep in Gao Peng’s heart had been completely resolved. It was no wonder that they regarded Flamy as so important and even wanted to focus on nurturing her.

There were so many Bi Fangs in the Bi Fang Clan. As a Bi Fang that had lived in the wild from young, there was no reason for Flamy to be looked upon favorably for no reason.

Now, it seemed probable that it was exactly because Flamy had embarked on the Fire-type Path of Usurpation.

From the moment he had set foot in Jiutian Shidi, Gao Peng had not come into contact with many people, nor had he come into contact with many monsters before arriving at the Bi Fang Tribe. Thereafter, Flamy was hidden by the Bi Fang Clan.

This was probably the reason Flamy had not encountered other opponents challenging it on the Fire-type Path of Usurpation.

A cigarette hung out of the corner of Dumby’s mouth. Goldie did not know how to smoke, so he took a small piece of dried fish out of his pocket and held it with his mouth.

“I can’t believe my wife has so many opponents.” Goldie’s expression sank like the weight of water. The piece of dried fish was bitten into bits and pieces and completely swallowed into his stomach.

Goldie felt a sense of imminent danger. If Flamy had also embarked on the Path of Usurpation, there would definitely be a significant number of competitors.

I want to be Flamy’s protector!

If I beat up all her competitors, Flamy will no longer be in danger then.

Crazy-wife-protector Flamy was now activated.

The city on the back of the Continent Emperor Turtle was now left with less than a hundred thousand people.

The city on the back of the Continent Emperor Turtle was not at all as flourishing as the outsiders first saw. It had once been a bustling and prosperous scene. Now that the King of Dreams had used an illusion to mask it, it appeared to be a field of scattered ruins in the illusion. So many people had been injured and killed to the point where the island, which had previously had more than a million people, now had less than one-tenth that number.

The thought of invading and taking over the City of Hope had occurred to them only because they had taken into consideration the fact that the population of humans had plummeted.

They had hoped to fabricate a huge lie using the environment created by the King of Dreams and the combat strength of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle.

As compared to a tribe left with less than a hundred thousand people, Gao Peng was more interested in the Black Spirit World.

However, the Black Spirit World was a long way from this place.

Under normal circumstances, no one would travel over land and sea for such a long distance, but…

Gao Peng shook his head. “I guess they’re what people call the weakest link in the chain.”

The standard of the Black Spirit World was vastly different from that of the entire Jiutian Shidi. But to the City of Hope, the Black Spirit World was a huge monster.

Because Trainers at God Tier existed in the Black Spirit World! And not just one!

He had yet to retaliate and attack Jiutian Shidi to fulfill the long-cherished wishes of those before him. But now, this Black Spirit world had suddenly sprung up from behind him.

“Master, we can take over the Black Spirit World, and then retaliate!”, Dumby said in a hoarse voice.

“That’s right! Those gods are not strong anyway. They’re all weak gods,” Goldie egged him on.

Gao Peng shook his head. How could things be as simple as they said?

But their words did give Gao Peng some ideas.

As compared to the holistic nature of Jiutian Shidi, the Surface Sea was made up of many surfaces. These surfaces also had a few wild gods…

Gao Peng rubbed his own chin.

“We’ll talk about these things in the future. Have you managed to find out who stole the credit of the Gold Plated Heavenly Beetle?”

“Master, I’ve managed to find out. That chap is called the Wing of Savage Sand. It is also one of the Quasi Gods who have embarked on the Wind-type Path of Usurpation. He has been following them for a very long time and moves at an extremely fast speed. However, because there are numerous Quasi Gods on the Continent Emperor Turtle, he did not dare to confront them directly. Over the past few years, nearly half the deaths of people who came to this island have something to do with it.”

“By the way, Master, there is a piece of flesh belonging to the Wing of Savage Sand in the storehouse. It’s a part of the Wing of Savage Sand that was cut off when it attacked them.”

“I see… Moneymaker.” Gao Peng snapped his fingers and summoned Moneymaker and Liuguang before bringing over the chunks of flesh belonging to the Wing of Savage Sand on the Continent Emperor Turtle.

“You guys go and bring that chap back. Bring him back alive if you can. If you can’t, then bring his corpse back.”

Moneymaker shook his tail and fiercely inhaled two mouthfuls of the torn wing of the Wing of Savage Sand. While making squeaking sounds, he turned his head and continued frenziedly chewing in another direction.

Liuguang and Moneymaker flew into the sky.

Gao Peng instructed Goldie to detain that group of people while Gao Peng brought Dumby up the hill.

Dumby did not ask what his master was going to do, either. In any case, he would simply follow his master wherever the latter went.

After crossing two hills and arriving at the edge of the island, there was an upward slope of a hill that spread out in front of them.

Gao Peng walked to the top of the hill and sat down.

He patted the ground beside him. “Hey, can you hear me?”

“…”

“I know that you’re awake. If you continue remaining silent, I’ll saw off your head,” Gao Peng said cheekily.

“Don’t…” A weak voice emanated from beneath his feet.

“You probably saw what happened on the island earlier. It was you guys who came to us to create trouble. Now that you’ve landed in my hands, what do you think we should do? You’re such a huge mass. If we make jerky out of you, it will be enough to sustain everyone in our tribe for a hundred years.”

“… My flesh is sour. My flesh doesn’t taste good.”

“Do you have a trainer?”, Gao Peng asked.

“He’s already dead,” the Continent Emperor Turtle said sadly.

Dead?

It was better that he was dead. There was less trouble that way.

“So, you’re a wido… ah, pft, a Familiar without a master, then. If you come with me, you won’t have to continue wandering about in the future.”

After ten seconds of silence, “If you avenge my master, I’ll listen to you for the rest of my life.” The Continent Emperor Turtle spoke in a very resolute tone.

How troublesome…why did he even have to complete a mission before subduing a Familiar?

But Gao Peng envisaged that the Continent Emperor Turtle would be his new base camp. If this fellow took things too hard one day and suddenly nose-dived and fell from the sky, killing everyone with him, Gao Peng himself would not have to worry. But the same could not be said for the rest of the people on the island.

“Alright, then. It’s all because I’m a kindhearted person,” Gao Peng said good-naturedly.
