Chapter 249 - 249 Left Demonic Emissary Zhou Yuanba

249 Left Demonic Emissary Zhou Yuanba

“Young Lord, are you alright?” Zhou Yuanba’s voice was no longer cold but rather hoarse as he spoke to Gu Mingzhou.

Gu Mingzhou had not yet recovered from the shock of the black-robed man suddenly kneeling down. When he heard the question, he only nodded in a daze.

“It’s good that you’re fine! If you were to lose even a single hair, this subordinate would not be able to make up for it even if I were to be smashed to pieces!” Zhou Yuanba said excitedly.

“Um, may I ask who you are?” Gu Mingzhou finally recovered from his shock and asked carefully.

“I’m the Left Demonic Emissary of the Lord Master, a ninth-rank demonic cultivator of the mortal realm. Young Lord, you haven’t awakened your power yet. Otherwise, you would have surpassed me very quickly.” Zhou Yuanba introduced himself respectfully.

“A ninth-rank demonic cultivator mortal realm!” Gu Mingzhou was stunned. In this world, he had only heard of half-step saint cultivator, saint cultivator, and mortal realm, but he did not know what kind of existence a demonic cultivator in the mortal realm was. He was still confused.

“Young Lord has yet to awaken his powers, so you naturally don’t know what a demonic cultivator is. You just need to know that I’m one of the 12 demonic emissaries under the Lord Master. since I’ve found Young Lord, I’ll naturally follow and protect you until you awaken.” Zhou Yuanba explained with excitement.

“Hmph, a mere demonic emissary at the mortal realm. How dare you say that you’ll protect him?” Before Zhou Yuanba could finish his words, Xu Fengyu snorted coldly and said in a disdainful tone.

“To tell you the truth, the Young Lord you’re trying to protect won’t live past today. I’ll get rid of him!”

“What did you just say?” Zhou Yuanba, who appeared especially calm in front of Gu Mingzhou, immediately jumped up when he heard Xu Fengyu’s words. His voice became unusually angry as he stared at Xu Fengyu and said coldly.

“Hehe! I’m not afraid to tell you that I’m the one who wants to kill your Young Lord!” Xu Fengyu sneered again.

Before he could finish his sentence, the pressure that had been dispersed earlier suddenly attacked. He suddenly rushed towards Gu Mingzhou and struck out with a palm. Whoosh!

The palm wind, which contained a destructive power, was no longer restrained. Instead, its power was fully displayed. The sky changed color as it attacked Gu Mingzhou.

“How audacious!” Seeing this, Zhou Yuanba was instantly furious. He had just said he would protect Gu Mingzhou, but Xu Fengyu had attacked him directly. This made him feel humiliated and extremely angry.

He immediately shouted and stepped past Gu Mingzhou. He also pushed out his palm and instantly met Xu Fengyu’s fierce palm wind.

Bang! A muffled sound reverberated through the air. Xu Fengyu’s ferocious palm strike was once again blocked by Zhou Yuanba. His body swayed slightly, but he did not take another step back.

“Hmph, I was wondering who would be so bold, so it’s a world cultivator! I’ve always heard that world cultivators are powerful and rarely lose. Today, I, Zhou Yuanba, will break this legend!” After blocking Xu Fengyu’s attack again, Zhou Yuanba’s face was filled with anger, but at the same time, he also looked cautious. Although Zhou Yuanba sounded arrogant, he still had a deep fear of Xu Fengyu. However, that was all.

As for feeling of terror or panic, there was absolutely no such thing! Before he could finish his words, Zhou Yuanba took three steps forward and instantly closed in on Xu Fengyu. He raised his strong right arm and suddenly swung his palm at Xu Fengyu.

“That will depend on whether you have the strength to do so. Be careful not to become my nutrients!” In the face of Zhou Yuanba’s arrogant words, Xu Fengyu also responded without showing weakness.

At the same time, the smile on his handsome face had disappeared, and a hint of caution appeared. It was obvious that in both Xu Fengyu and Zhou Yuanba’s hearts, the other was not an easy opponent. Zhou Yuanba and Xu Fengyu were fighting.

The continuous sounds of collision resounded throughout the island. The frightened birds and beasts in the forest quickly fled the place. While Zhou Yuanba and Xu Fengyu were walking away, their hands kept clashing with each other. Gu Mingzhou, who was not far away, frowned. He could not believe what was happening in front of him.

This made Gu Mingzhou feel like he was dreaming, even more so than when Zhou Yuanba suddenly knelt. The two people in front of him, whether it was Xu Fengyu, who was known as the World God, or the black-robed fiendish cultivator Zhou Yuanba, who worshipped Gu Mingzhou as his Master, could be said to be the top existences in this world.

However, it was these two powerful people who were now in front of Gu Mingzhou, punching and slapping each other without any pattern. There was no energy of vital essence as vast as the ocean, nor was there any brilliant and exquisite spell techniques.

There were only copper fists and iron palms, colliding with each other. One punch, one palm, not giving way to the other, and the collision was endless.

“This… I might have met a fake world cultivator and a fake demonic cultivator in this Tao Wu,” Gu Mingzhou muttered to himself and looked at the two people in front of him in shock. He was extremely shocked and came to a conclusion.

He had thought he would see a great battle but did not expect to see a cautious collision that was not even comparable to a child’s.

It was really a big surprise. However, Gu Mingzhou did not realize that the two people, who looked like they were simply clashing, would cause a small area of the void around them to tremble every time their fists and palms came into contact.

The energy of vital essence would dissipate. While he was still in shock, the collision between the two became even more intense and faster.

In a breath’s time, they had almost collided nearly a hundred times, and even the sound seemed unable to keep up with their fists and palms.

The surrounding void was torn apart, and thin, pitch-black void cracks appeared. It was a collision of absolute power that could shake the void and tear the space.

Just as the attacks of the two gradually became stronger, the sound of rustling footsteps suddenly rang out in the dilapidated forest. Then, a group of male cultivators in beast clothes came out of the trees.

“Sacred Palace Guards?” Gu Mingzhou recognized the rogue cultivators who had suddenly appeared on the island. They were the guards of Sacred Soul Island’s Upper Palace.

Moreover, among the few people walking in front of this group of guards, a fat individual cultivator immediately attracted Gu Mingzhou’s attention. “Zheng Yuanshan?” Gu Mingzhou instantly remembered the name of this fat itinerant cultivator and muttered.

At that time, he claimed the Hall Master had instructed him to come and help Gu Mingzhou. And in fact, he had indeed helped Gu Mingzhou. There were also several people walking in front of the guards beside Zheng Yuanshan. Three of them were the Sacred Palace’s Commanders who had appeared at the ceremony before. As for the other dozens of them, for some reason, they did not follow.

After recognizing the person who had come, Gu Mingzhou suddenly had doubts in his heart. Although Zheng Yuanshan listened to Zuo Qiuyi’s orders in private, and it was obvious that he was Zuo Qiuyi’s man.

However, on the surface, Zuo Qiuyi had already left the Sacred Palace, and he was now under the great elder’s command.

However, it was not his turn to be troubled, as Zuo Qiuyi had already died. Xu Fengyu captured even the great elder, and his whereabouts were unknown.
