Chapter 2768 Eastern Ancient Mountain Range
Eastern Ancient Mountain Range, a vast mountain range that’s at least ten-thousand li wide. A thick amazonian forest. Not many people visit this place, even though it’s only 20,000 li away from the Spirit Jade City of the Qilian Region. The largest mountain range around the city was littered with countless dominic beasts residing within, close to infinite demonic beasts below Divine King Realm, with occasional appearance of Hierarch Realm beast.
The mountain range was the only path towards the Eastern Region from the Spirit Jade City. Jiang Chen took a shortcut to return back to the Spirit Jade City, passing through the mountain range. No beasts could harm him, except for Hierarchs.
The Battle Royale of the Nine Counties (Previously Nine County Competition), the battle of Profound Connection Divine Palace was soon to come.
For Divine Kings, time was not something that would help them improve. Some talented experts would even go into seclusion up to ten-thousand years, time was of no concern for them. The Divine World does not lack experts, there’ll always be one better than you, you’ll never know how many great and talented men around you.
The danger and harsh terrain of the Eastern Ancient Mountain Range was one that scares many. Even if the Spirit Jade City was near, it was hard to send out a rescue team from there. As such many had fallen amidst their training in the mountain range. The Tian Qi Mountain Range is child’s play compared to the Eastern Ancient Mountain Range.
“Hehe, I’m gonna break my fasting (not eating meat). To think there’s such a beautiful girl in this god-forsaken place, this a great fortune, a great fortune indeed!” A monkey-like black-robbed old man said with a wryly smile, his eyes were filled with perversion as he stared at the beautiful young woman from a distance.
He has been living in this Eastern Ancient Mountain Range for god-knows how many years, he has become a native of this place and became well-versed in the terrain of the mountain range.
“Old fool, both of us found her, together, don’t you dare give me your leftovers.” A fat youngster with an ugly face appeared beside the old man.
His face was pretty scary, just like the demons of hell in the fairytales, extremely hideous, one would even gag from looking at him.
Although he looks young, his cultivation and real age was hard to determine.
“Damned fatty, it’s not like I could monopolize it! Kaka, we’ve been brothers for so many years, am I that sort of man?” The mlack-robbed old man looked at the fatty.
“That’s more like it, the more the merrier hehehe.” The fatty said merrily to the black-robbed old man.
“There are two fresh young’uns, one boy and one girl, we’ll eat the boy and as for the girl… we’ll eat her up after we’ve grown tired of her.” The black-robbed old man flashed through the forest like lightning.
“Senior Brother. We’ve lost all contact with the Great Elder this time, what should we do?” The young girl said with a sweet and delicate voice as she stared at the white-robbed youngster beside her.
Her eyes were filled with infatuation and respect. As a matter of fact, she was extremely happy, although unsure when they could leave this thick forest and reunite with the Great Elders and the group.
The white-robbed youngster frowned, feeling uneasy. The Great Elder had specially reminded them that they must stick to the group before entering the Eastern Ancient Mountain Range. However, they still got separated due to the mysterious fog of the forest. They’d lost contact with the group for more than a week, not knowing when they could leave this place. There will always be fog surrounding them even after flying up to the clouds, just like a maze, not being able to leave even after going towards a single direction.
“I am not sure too, this place is weird, not even the Great Elder knows how to deal with it confidently. Now that we’re separated from the others, we must not leave each other’s sight. Otherwise, it’ll be very difficult for us to move on. Let’s take one step at a time.” The boy grabbed the girl’s palm tightly, fearing that danger might befall her.
The girl’s expression was of happiness, albeit nervous. This was her first time going out from the sect, this was their private time together.
“This is the happiest time in my life.” She tightened her perfect, tender and fair palms while looking down and lightly bit her soft-red lips with said it with a gentle tone.
“Rest assured, this Brother Ping will protect you even if the Heavens were to fall on us.” The boy said with a smile, his eyes were firm.
The girl lightly nodded. Love’s in the air.
“Kakaka, such a perfectly matched couple, truly envious.” The black-robbed old man said with a weird laugh.
The boy’s expressions immediately stiffened as he raised his spear and preparead his stance.
“Playing tricks! Who is it?! Come out!” The white-robbed youngster shouted angrily.
“Little kid, you have some temper, but let’s see whether you have the ability to uphold that temper of yours.” The black-robbed old man said with a smile as he appeared before them with his arms crossed.
“Old monster, do not block my path, otherwise, my spear will not show mercy.” The youngster said coldly as he pointed his spear towards the black-robbed old man.
“Kakaka, a hot-tempered one ain’t ya? This is my turf, aren’t I lacking some protection fee? Hehe.”
“This is your turf, meaning, you know the way out?”
The white-robbed youngster looked at the black-robbed old man shockingly.
“Speak, what do you want and I shall comply. As long as you’re able to lead us the way.”
“Really?” The black-robed old man said.
“Enough nonsense, I, Luo Ping, never goes back on his words.” Luo Ping frowned and said with impatience.
“Then, that’s great. Leave the little girl and I shall show you the way, kakaka, how is it?”
“Damned old coot, looks like you’re asking to die.”
Luo Ping stood in front of the girl with a sharp gaze and he released a powerful aura, prepared to fight the old man to death.
“Sigh, young’uns these days have a short-fuse. Isn’t this a fair trade? Why are you angry? Are you on the bad side of the deal? To trade one life for another. I like that little girl.” The black-robbed old man said as his gaze became sharper, staring at the young girl.
“Senior Brother, this fella is disgusting.” Luo Ninger pouted cutely and naively.
The black-robbed old man was getting impatient.
“Little girl, you’re mine! Hehe.”
“Old codger, stop spouting nonsense, I will tear that damned mouth of yours apart!” Luo Ping shouted and rushed towards the old man while throwing out some big moves with his spear.
“Hehe, very well, I’m itching to fight, there are not many in this mountain range that dares to go against me. This old man will try his best for that little girl.” Black-robbed old man said with a disgusting smile.
Luo Ping was thoroughly angered by his behaviour. I can get out of this place after I subdue this old man.
“Old man! Today, I, Luo Ping, shall end you!”
Luo Ping unleashed his full might as his spear-handling skill caused the surrounding stones and floras to be grinded into dust. The old man took upon his spear with a smile, as if he wanted to play with him longer.
