Chapter 487 - Returned to Wailing Mountain
Chapter 487: Returned to Wailing Mountain
“As expected! From the very beginning, you didn’t have any good intentions!”
Anger snorted indignantly. Although it was dissatisfied, it could not do anything.
Just as Deception had said, Anger’s current condition was not right. If it forcefully used its incomplete soul to cast the dharma Idol, it would result in its soul scattering. Moreover, the karma contaminated within was also a terrifying consequence that it, a mere remnant soul could not bear.
“Don’t hesitate anymore. We might have already attracted the attention of certain existences. Hurry up and make a decision. Whether you want to leave alone or merge with me, I believe you will make the right choice.”
“After this period of time, I will leave.”
“As you wish.”
“Alright then.”
Finally, Anger chose to compromise.
Seeing this scene, Victor finally heaved a sigh of relief. Now, he could be considered to have perfectly completed his mission. He only needed to return to Wailing Mountain and guide a portion of his soul power into Xiao Chenggan’s body to help him advance to the nascent soul realm, then, he could leave.
Thinking up to this point, Victor felt a tiny surge of strength coming out of nowhere.
Although he could not use his spiritual power, Victor was also a strength cultivator. Just the speed of his physical body alone was already not inferior to the Three-legged Golden Crow. Therefore, after storing Anger in his body, Victor set off to return to Wailing Mountain.
On the way, Victor informed Anger about the deal between the Central Plains Sect Alliance and Xiao Chenggan. After some discussion, Anger and Deception would each take out 20% of their soul power to help Xiao Chenggan advance.
There was nothing he could do. If it was not for that old b*stard Gongye Yuyu asking for his help, Victor would have long run away.
After about an hour, Victor was finally able to get in touch with Gongye Yuyu. After learning that they had not reached the deepest part of Wailing Mountain, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’ve finally caught up…”
Victor sighed softly and bypassed Gongye Yuyu’s group. He rushed to the deepest part of Wailing Mountain, leaving behind a wisp of his soul. He erased the remaining marks on it and injected 40% of Anger and Deception’s soul power into it. In this way… without anyone knowing, he completed the task of substituting the soul power.
After informing Gongye Yuyu about this matter, Victor did not choose to stay in Wailing Mountain.
After all, everything that followed was much simpler. Xiao Chenggan would absorb the soul power he left behind and advance to the nascent soul realm. To Victor, this was not worth him staying.
To put it bluntly, Victor had just destroyed the dharma idol, which was at the peak of the nascent soul realm. Now, he was very proud!
Arriving at the periphery of Wailing Mountain, the battle here had come to an end. Soaring Serpent had long left with an army of demon beasts from the Hundred Thousand Mountain, leaving behind only a few weak demon beasts. They were all wiped out by the disciples of the Central Plains Sect Alliance.
However, something that Victor did not expect happened. The Ape General died in battle.
Perhaps, after seeing Victor’s “heroic death”, the Ape General had also sacrificed himself with his demon beasts, buying precious time for the other branches to rush over.
In this battle, roughly speaking, the Central Plains Sect Alliance had sacrificed at least ten thousand troops, seven generals, and countless people had been injured!
However, the results of the battle that they had exchanged their lives for were also remarkable.
Among the piles of demon beast corpses, there was no lack of demon beasts that were at the core formation realm. Even the only nascent soul beast king that was tricked by the Soaring Serpent had been sacrificed here. Overall, it was a complete victory for the Central Plains Sect Alliance!
However, these things had nothing to do with Victor. Looking at the pile of corpses, Victor pondered for a long time before flying toward the Blue Luan Hall.
Not long after, Victor returned to the Crossing Sins Altar and stood at the gate of the Blue Luan Hall.
At this moment, Victor had already recovered his original appearance. Therefore, the guards guarding the door did not recognize him and only urged him to leave.
“I have something to report to the altar master. I… I am Lord Zhang Er’s vice general!”
“Phoenix General? Please wait for a moment.”
The news of Phoenix General’s “sacrifice” had spread, and most people, including Long Yi, felt sorry for him.
Not long after, the guards who were guarding the door returned and opened the main door of Blue Luan Hall.
Walking in, Victor saw Feng Lian. Her eyes were slightly red as if she had just cried.
“Lord Altar Master.”
“You are Phoenix General’s vice-general? Why are you looking for me?”
“Lord Altar Master, when the general was alive, he asked me to pass a few words to altar master. However, there are too many people here…”
“Understood, follow me.”
Hearing this, Feng Lian did not have any doubts. She stood up, turned around, and left.
Victor followed behind Feng Lian. The two of them came to a secret room.
“There is a magic array here to isolate us from the outside world. What… What did Phoenix General say to you when he was alive?”
“Altar master…”
Victor cupped his hands and raised his head again, revealing a smile.
“Feng Lian, I’ll ask you again. Are you willing to leave with me?”
“You are… Victor?” Feng Lian’s voice was obviously trembling.
“It’s me.” Victor nodded noncommittally and continued, “So, what’s your answer?”
“Didn’t I give you an answer long ago? I can’t leave.”
“Okay, I understand.”
He had asked Feng Lian three times if she was willing to leave with him. Since she was not willing, Victor would not force her.
“But… before I leave, I have one more thing to do.”
“You… What do you want to do?”
“Nothing, I just want to leave a memory for you.”
As soon as he finished his words, Victor flashed in front of Feng Lian and pulled her into his arms. Then, he kissed her.
This kiss seemed to have stopped time. Both of them were immersed in this brief moment of beauty.
When Feng Lian came back to her senses and pushed Victor away, the corner of her lips was slightly red and swollen from being sucked by Victor. Her eyes seemed to be in a daze.
“What… What are you doing!”
“Didn’t I say that I wanted to leave a memory for you?” Victor licked the corner of his lips and said with a wicked smile, “This way, you will have the mark of my family. If you cheat on me, I will teach you a lesson!”
“Cheat? What do you mean?”
“No… nothing.” Victor waved his hand awkwardly, he continued, “In short, you just need to remember that from today onwards, you are my woman. Remember to stay clean. When I have the power to rival the entire Central Plains Sect Alliance, I will come back to pick you up.”
“Really?”
Hearing this, Feng Lian’s eyes lit up.
“I always keep my word. Such a beautiful military lady, how could I leave you here alone?”
“You’re making fun of me again!”
“No, I’m just telling the truth. Alright, it’s getting late. I should go.”
After saying that, Victor turned around and left.
Looking at Victor’s departing back, this time, Feng Lian did not cry. She bit her red lips with her teeth and silently recited the promise that Victor had left for her, feeling pleased with herself.
