Chapter 199: Command (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
Azure Continent Immortal City.
As the spirit ships slowly landed.
A tsunami of cheers erupted in the Immortal City.
At this moment, regardless of whether they were mortals or cultivators, when they saw the spirit ships, they felt as if they had seen their saviors. They felt a sense of relief as if they had survived a calamity.
However, cultivators with a clear mind could tell.
With the number of cultivators on these spirit ships, it was simply a drop in the ocean against such a huge zombie horde.
The arrival of this batch of reinforcements could at most delay the fall of the Azure Continent Immortal City.
As for exterminating the zombie horde, it was just wishful thinking.
Moreover…
As time passed, the number of zombies gathered outside the Azure Continent immortal city would only increase.
This was because there would always be some fish that had not been captured in the countless islands between Lotus Flower Island and Azure Continent Immortal City.
When these islands fell, the number of zombies would definitely increase.
Ye Clan Residence.
The Great Elder of the Ye Family, Ye Hongsheng, was leading a group of elite cultivators outside the hall.
Ye Hongsheng looked like an old man in his fifties. He had a thin face, a jade crown on his head, and a red armor. When he saw Zhou Minghao and the other cultivators, he was overjoyed.
“Fellow Daoist Zhou, you’ve finally arrived!”
Ye Hongsheng took a few steps forward and grabbed Zhou Minghao’s hands.
Zhou Minghao withdrew his hands without batting an eyelid and said coldly,””Where is Ye Wudao?”
“Uh…”
Embarrassment and resentment flashed across Ye Hongsheng’s face, and then he smiled again.” My ancestor felt that the zombie tide was too strong, so he rushed to the Qianyuan Sword Sect to ask for help a few days ago. Now, he should have arrived at the Qianyuan Sword Sect by now!””
“Haha,”
A burst of laughter suddenly came from the crowd of the coalition army.” This request for help is really interesting. I don’t see any reinforcements from the Qian Yuan Sword Sect, nor do I see Ye Wudao himself returning. Could it be that a dignified Daoist Master of Jindan Stage is lost?””
“Hahahaha!”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Immediately, someone in the crowd laughed and said,”I don’t think the possibility of getting lost is high. Back then, Perfected Ye ran all the way back to Cangzhou from the Southern Mountain’s City. He could even return smoothly from this distance of more than ten million miles, let alone now, it’s just a few million miles.”
“Brother, you are right. I forgot.”
“Hahahaha!”
Ye Hongsheng’s face turned pale when he heard the mocking words, but he chose to endure it for the sake of the big picture.
However, just because he could endure it didn’t mean that the other Ye Family cultivators could.
In the next moment.
A young Ye Family cultivator stood out from the crowd. His eyes were red as he cupped his hands and said,”Which fellow daoist was the one who just spoke? Please step forward!”
“Just stand out!”
Lei Zhen flew out from the alliance army and shouted,”This is what your grandfather said. What should you do?”
“It’s you!”
Ye Xiuyuan’s expression changed when he saw Ray Zhen.
How could he not remember this person in front of him?
Back then, he had gone to Guang ‘an Prefecture to purchase a Level Two Water Spirit Pearl. However, he had been ruined by this boorish man.
Now, he was mocking the Ye family in public. He really did not know what death was!
Old and new grudges, coupled with the despair and anger after being abandoned by his own ancestor, caused Ye Xiuyuan to completely explode.
“You furry thief,”
Ye Xiuyuan pointed at Lei Zhen.” Today, you insulted my Ye family. Do you dare to fight me to the death?!””
“You’re just a coward. Why wouldn’t you dare?”
“Alright, come!”
Ye Xiuyuan wanted to fly out, but he was locked in place by a powerful force, unable to move.
Ye Xiuyuan turned around with difficulty and saw Great Elder Ye Hongsheng shaking his head at him. A stream of tears rolled down his cheeks.
“First Elder, let me go!”
Ye Xiuyuan said coldly.
“Xiuyuan, don’t be impulsive.”
“I know!”
Seeing his expression, Ye Hongsheng sighed and removed the binding force on Ye Xiuyuan.
Ye Xiuyuan felt the power of the seal disappear and slowly straightened his body. He glanced at the Alliance Army cultivators who were glaring at him and took a deep breath,””First Elder, all these years, I…Enough!”
“Xiuyuan…”
Ye Xiuyuan ignored the warning and slowly took two steps forward, then cupped his hands and bowed to the alliance army.
“Fellow Daoists of Cangzhou!”
Ye Xiuyuan said loudly,” That’s right, my Ye Family Patriarch, Ye Wudao, escaped! Abandon the city and flee! Abandoning my Ye Clan’s million cultivators and fleeing!
“Today, 1, Ye Xiuyuan, swear here that I will no longer respect Ye Wudao as the ancestor of my Ye family! If you violate this oath, the heavens will punish you!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A dull thunderclap sounded.
After swearing the oath, Ye Xiuyuan turned around and walked to Great Elder Ye Hongsheng. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times respectfully.”First Elder, fellow clansmen, although I, Ye Xiuyuan, don’t respect Ye Wudao as my Ye Family’s ancestor, I can’t help but obtain this bloodline from him. Today, I, Ye Xiuyuan, will return it to him!”
“Xiuyuan! No!”
“I’m the best!”
A flying sword flew out of his storage pouch as fast as lightning. It slashed through his dantian and almost cut his body in half.
Plop, Ye Xiuyuan fell to the ground.
“Ho-ho-”
Blood sprayed out from his mouth. Ye Xiuyuan’s eyes were wide open, and the corners of his mouth revealed a smile.” I…” I’d rather…He was a scattered… Rogue cultivator!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Ye Xiuyuan died!
“I’m the best!”
“Xiuyuan!”
The cultivators of the Ye Family were all grieving.
When Lei Zhen saw this, for some reason, the anger in his heart seemed to have dissipated.
When the other Cangzhou alliance army cultivators saw this scene, they were all shocked by the staunch personality of this Ye Family cultivator called Ye Xiuyuan. The anger in their hearts was reduced by 70 – 80% to nothing.
At this moment.
An inexplicable thought rose in everyone’s mind. Ye Wudao was Ye Wudao, and the Ye Family cultivators were Ye Family cultivators. They could not be lumped together.
“Fellow Daoist Ye, you’re really good at trying to suppress the enemy!”
A voice rang out in Ye Hongsheng’s consciousness. It was Zhou Minghao’s voice.” However, if your Ye Family wants to seize the command of the defense of the Cang Prefecture Immortal City with just a Foundation Establishment cultivator, I can only say that you’re delusional!”
“Fellow Daoist Zhou, the Azure Continent Immortal City is our Ye family’s immortal city to begin with. Shouldn’t our Ye family be in charge of this war?”
Ye Hongsheng didn’t give in.
Both of them are very clear about the scale of the war, the battlefield command power means what the class.
It meant that no matter if the alliance army or the Ye family obtained it, the number of people who died on the battlefield would be much lower!
Zhou Minghao sneered.” If Ye Wudao was here, your Ye Clan might have the right to fight for the command of this war. But now…” What right does your Ye family have?”
Hearing this.
Ye Hongsheng turned his head, glancing at the eleven Zifu Disciples behind him, then at the seventy-one Zifu Disciples opposite him, as well as the Chosen of the Zifu Chosen Rankings. He could only let out a helpless sigh.
He looked deeply at Zhou Minghao, then bowed deeply and pleaded,””! hope Fellow Daoist Zhou will show mercy to the million cultivators of the Ye Clan!”
In the end, he still handed over the command..
