Chapter 487: To Go or to Stay
As Tongshan approached Huangzhuang, the system's notifications echoed frantically deep within his mind.
Chen Futu immediately summoned back the drought demon. The drought demon raised its withered and ferocious face and stared at Tongshan, whimpering and growling from its shriveled mouth.
"Welcome, Supreme Asura!"
Elder Ge and Elder Bai retreated, and Wild Monkey led everyone in the ancient hall to kneel on one knee, facing the sky with utmost respect.
Tong Shan's gaze fell on Chen Futu, his aged face full of mockery. "Little dog, you destroyed my Asura lineage and still dare to swagger in the south of the Milky Way. You don't take my Ancient Palace seriously."
Chen Futu said loudly, "Senior, if the Asura Hall hadn't entered our territory to kill people, our two families wouldn't be on opposing sides."
"No matter what you say, you're not leaving today. Will you kneel down and beg for mercy, or will I personally send you on your way?"
Tong Shan was arrogant, and he had the right to be so. He stood with his hands behind his back in the dark sky, like a king looking down on all living beings.
Chen Futu had to admit that this old man was very good at showing off; even a mere wisp of his aura was far stronger than that of the wild monkey.
"Senior, if you want to kill me, we'll see if you have the ability."
Chen Futu raised the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow and pointed it at Tong Shan, who laughed heartily, "Your Majesty, even on the verge of death, your backbone remains as hard as ever!"
"Drought Demon, make your move."
At Chen Futu's command, the drought demon roared to the sky and shot into the air like a cannonball.
Tong Shan remained expressionless. When the drought demon got close, he blocked its full-force attack with a single palm strike. The force of the collision swept outwards, and all the Martial Emperors and below had to lower their heads to defend against the outward-spreading energy.
"Sand Sea Clan, have you ever regretted becoming this inhuman and ghostly creature?" Tong Shan stared coldly at the drought demon. Upon hearing this, the drought demon seemed to have been touched on a sore spot, letting out a mournful cry and launching a frenzied attack.
Buzz!
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through Tong Shan's protective aura.
"I have to admit, this old guy is really strong."
Chen Futu felt that Tong Shan's current strength was comparable to Zhang Sanfeng's, and he estimated that Zhang Sanfeng was also at the Qingyun Realm, but he didn't know which level he was at.
"Get out of here, you inhuman thing."
With a wave of his hand, Tong Shan slapped the drought demon into the ground, creating a crater more than ten meters deep.
Suppressing the drought demon with a single palm strike—how terrifying!
"Is this the Cloud-Piercing Realm?"
Chen Futu's expression was serious as he asked the system, "Can the random summoning card summon a Cloud-Piercing Realm expert?"
There is only a 1% probability.
"Stop joking around, don't you even look at the situation now?"
[System suggests the host flee]
"Lets see."
Chen Futu neither used a summoning card nor ran away, because Liu Longyue was still by his side. She had been in private contact with the Ancient Palace, and it was a matter of seeing whether she had the confidence to do so or whether she wanted to surrender to the Ancient Palace.
Seeing Chen Futu looking at her, Liu Longyue immediately understood. She stepped forward and said to Tong Shan, "Senior, do you really want to fight to the death?"
"Your Majesty the Empress is meddling in other people's business. Please forgive me for not giving you that face."
"In that case, let's fight."
Liu Longyue waved her hand, and two more Martial Venerable experts appeared out of nowhere, possessing the peak level of Martial Venerable.
Tong Shan said in a sinister tone, "Under the clouds, all are ants. Since you are courting death, I will grant your wish."
"All four of you, get him together and stop him!"
Liu Longyue gave the order, and the four Martial Venerables soared into the sky. In just one exchange, Elder Ge and Elder Bai were sent flying and seriously injured.
"Your Majesty, let's go quickly."
Liu Longyue tried to pull Chen Futu away, but Chen Futu shook his head. "What's the rush? We haven't lost yet."
"That's something that even a Martial Venerable can't stop."
Liu Longyue became a little anxious and tried to pull him away, but Chen Futu shook off her hand and said, "Hanba, continue."
In the deep pit, the drought demon attacked Tong Shan again, joining forces with the two peak Martial Venerables in a fierce assault. Tong Shan sneered, "A bunch of ignorant little insects, how dare you act so presumptuously in front of this old man."
With just a hand seal, he sent the drought demon and the two martial lords flying, completely unable to withstand his attack.
Ignoring everything else after knocking the three away, Tong Shan flashed towards Chen Futu in mid-air, saying, "I beg Your Majesty to die."
Ding!
[Host detected to be in a life-or-death crisis. Would you like to consume a random summoning card to summon either Xiaobai or Li Yuanba?]
"no."
Chen Futu's answer nearly made the system explode with noise; it started beeping incessantly.
"Shut up and shut up."
The system fell silent upon hearing this.
Chen Futu gazed at the barren mountain in the sky and mentioned the Dragon Sparrow, "What does the blood of a Cloud-Piercing Realm expert taste like? I really can't wait to find out."
"You mere mid-stage Martial Venerable, die before me!"
Tong Shan struck down with a palm, the force of which was like a mountain pressing down.
Just as Chen Futu was about to swing his sword, Liu Longyue suddenly blocked his way. She shouted loudly, and a phantom image of a true phoenix appeared behind her, which was her national destiny!
She blocked the attack but was injured in the process. Then, without thinking twice, she grabbed Chen Futu and ran away.
"Where to go!"
Tongshan followed like a shadow, delivering another palm strike from afar.
Chen Futu glanced at the bloodstains at the corner of Liu Longyue's mouth, shoved her aside, and turned back to unleash the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique.
As expected, this time it couldn't be blocked. The sword light was annihilated, and Chen Futu was knocked down onto the wasteland.
Tong Shan suddenly descended, his hands behind his back, closing in step by step. "Is that all? Crushing you is like crushing a reptile."
"Tong Shan, I am your opponent!"
With a wave of her snow-white hand, Liu Longyue unleashed a burst of sword light that shot out into the sky.
Tong Shan simply released his inner energy to extinguish the dense sword shadows. "I'll do you a favor and send you two to be a pair of doomed lovers."
"Your Majesty, let's go quickly!"
Liu Longyue gritted her teeth, and the imperial dynasty's fortune behind her gathered and erupted, transforming into a true phoenix that pressed down on her.
Tong Shan did not intercept the attack, but instead dodged it.
No matter how Liu Longyue tries to attack, she will be dodged. The two are not on the same level at all. She does not possess the Imperial Seal of the State like Chen Futu. If this continues, she will die.
Chen Futu stood up, looked at the fearless woman, and asked, "Is it worth it?"
"It's worth it. We, the people of Beiwu, are the most trustworthy!"
As Liu Longyue spoke, she suddenly waved her sleeve, and Chen Futu was swept away by the surging power of the nation's destiny. She turned back and smiled, looking somewhat miserable, "Your Majesty, if I die today, I hope you will keep your promise and treat my people well."
Chen Futu did not resist this force, letting it carry him a hundred feet away. Then, Guan Xing arrived with the bronze-armored corpse, and the drought demon also arrived.
"Your Majesty, shall we leave?" Guan Xing asked nervously.
"Let's retreat first."
Before leaving, Chen Futu took a deep look at Liu Longyue, who was being beaten by Tong Shan and was spitting blood.
A moment later, Chen Futu and Guan Xing went to a dense forest to wait quietly. After a short while, the battle fluctuations in the distance disappeared.
Chen Futu asked the stargazer, "Did you see anything?"
"Your Majesty, Liu Longyue is behaving strangely tonight, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is," Guan Xing said solemnly.
"It's okay if you can't explain it. The battle over there is over. Let's go watch a good show."
Chen Futu called Guan Xing out of the dense forest, and then they returned to the battlefield against the wind and rain.
