Celestial Emperor of Devouring

Chapter 968: Chapter 958: Fight on Their Territory

"How... how is this possible?"

"What kind of power is this? It can actually destroy our attacks in an instant!"

"Such domineering power! Who is this kid?"

The three Elders couldn’t help but exclaim in shock, utterly terrified inside, their eyes wide as they stared at Gu Chenfeng.

The three Elders could hardly believe that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy actually possessed power comparable to the terrifying strength of the three of them.

"Who is he? His strength is actually..." From a distance, the seriously injured Child Emperor also looked at Gu Chenfeng with wide eyes in fear.

He likewise couldn’t believe that the young man who had not taken any action all along was actually so terrifyingly powerful.

An Elder forced down the fear inside and asked, "Who are you?"

"Your enemy." Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile.

The faces of the three Elders suddenly changed drastically.

Another Elder quickly said, "Little brother, we are from the Ancient Taotie Race, perhaps you haven’t heard of us, but our strength is greater than that of the Demon Soul Mountain Range’s overlord, the Flood Dragon Race. We hope you won’t interfere in this matter."

Gu Chenfeng’s cultivation had now reached the Late Stage of Immortal Monarch, and with the use of Ancient Divine Power, he was enough to fight against a Middle Stage demigod expert, even if it were a Late Stage demigod, Gu Chenfeng wouldn’t be at all afraid.

The three Middle Stage demigod Elders before him were already seriously injured, and Gu Chenfeng paid them even less mind.

Just from Gu Chenfeng’s easy destruction of their Demon Techniques and forcing them back, it was apparent that Gu Chenfeng’s power was extremely terrifying.

The three Elders naturally didn’t want to offend Gu Chenfeng.

Gu Chenfeng glanced at the three Elders, then faintly smiled and said, "The Ice Phoenix is mine. Do you think I should intervene?"

"What?" The faces of the three Elders changed drastically once again.

Looking at the three terrified Elders, Gu Chenfeng laughed again and said, "You can go."

At the moment those words were heard.

The three Elders were slightly taken aback, then exchanged glances, filled with doubt in their hearts.

Was Gu Chenfeng joking?

The three of them were already seriously injured, and with Gu Chenfeng’s strength, dealing with them would be as easy as a flip of the hand.

Yet Gu Chenfeng wanted to let them go.

The three Elders were perplexed, not knowing why Gu Chenfeng would let them leave.

Seeing the three Elders unmoved, seemingly unwilling to give up just like that. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"If you don’t leave now, you’ll all stay here," Gu Chenfeng said coldly, suddenly unleashing an unparalleled terrifying aura, his eyes becoming extremely menacing.

The bodies of the three Elders trembled, once again scared out of their wits.

"Go!" The leading Elder gritted his teeth and said, not daring to linger any longer.

The severely injured Child Emperor immediately fled as well.

The Nine-tailed Spirit Fox and the Eight Elders exchanged glances, all bewildered as to why Gu Chenfeng let the tiger return to the mountains.

The Heaven-Devouring Fox Race was also puzzled.

After the strongmen of the Taotie Race left.

Gu Chenfeng looked at the Ice Phoenix, took out a fourth-grade Elixir and gave it to the Ice Phoenix, smiling as he asked, "How do you feel? Are you alright?"

"I’m fine; the Divine Fire Phoenix can help me quickly heal my injuries." The Ice Phoenix weakly smiled and said, "Thank you, master." freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"The injuries are somewhat severe, but are perfect for cultivation," Gu Chenfeng said with a chuckle, then helped the severely injured Ice Phoenix descend.

The Nine-tailed Spirit Fox quickly asked with concern, "Ice Phoenix, how are your injuries?"

The Ice Phoenix slightly shook her head and smiled, "I’m fine; Clan Leader of the Nine-tails, you don’t need to worry."

"That’s good." The Nine-tailed Spirit Fox breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Gu Chenfeng and respectfully asked, "By the way, Mr. Gu, why did you let them go?"

"The strength of the Ancient Taotie Race is terrifying, and they will definitely come back for the Ice Phoenix’s Divine Beast Bloodline in the future."

Gu Chenfeng faintly smiled and said, "Fighting here might attract their race’s strongmen, and it might destroy the Heaven-Devouring Fox Race. If you want to fight, do it in their territory!"

The Nine-tailed Spirit Fox widened her beautiful eyes in shock and asked, "Mr. Gu, are you planning to go to the Taotie Race?"

The Eight Elders also looked shocked.

"They have twice attempted to seize the Divine Beast Bloodline of the Ice Phoenix, and now they’ve injured the Ice Phoenix. How could I let them go so easily?" Gu Chenfeng grinned, a subtle hint of fierce murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

When the Child Emperor acted back then, if it hadn’t been for waiting for the Ice Phoenix’s bloodline to fully awaken, he would have already taken the Divine Beast Bloodline.

Looking at the Ice Phoenix, Gu Chenfeng said, "Ice Phoenix, cultivate first; after your injuries heal, we’ll go to the Taotie Race."

"Yes, Master!" The Ice Phoenix said respectfully, then jumped into the Profound Ice Lake to cultivate.

...

The three Elders and the Child Emperor fled back to the mountain range where the Ancient Taotie Race was located in panic.

"We absolutely cannot let that brat off!"

"How dare he oppose our Taotie Race; he’s tired of living!"

"If our injuries weren’t so severe, how would we let that boy be so arrogant?"

The faces of the three Elders were filled with fear and anger, their hearts full of unwillingness.

Seeing as they were about to successfully capture the Ice Phoenix, a surprise intruder ruined it for them, which infuriated them.

When they entered the territory of the Ancient Taotie Race, the Clan Leader and the Great Elder of the race were already waiting.

However.

Upon seeing the three Elders and the Child Emperor critically injured, the Clan Leader and Great Elder were dumbfounded.

It was clear that the three Elders and the Child Emperor had failed.

The Clan Leader’s face instantly darkened, and a towering anger erupted forth.

"What happened to you? Who injured you like this? Where is the Divine Beast Bloodline?" the Clan Leader asked angrily, his voice filled with authority as he glared at the three Elders and the Child Emperor.

The three Elders hung their heads in shame and helplessness.

An Elder gritted his teeth and respectfully said, "Clan Leader, we failed. The Ice Phoenix’s strength exceeded our expectations, and a mysterious young man aided her."

"Useless wastes!" the Clan Leader roared in anger.

The Great Elder’s brows furrowed, and he asked in a deep voice, "The four of you together couldn’t handle just one Ice Phoenix? And what about this mysterious young man?"

The Child Emperor replied fearfully, "Great Elder, the Ice Phoenix’s Divine Beast Bloodline is terrifying; it can suppress our Divine Beast Bloodline!"

"Suppress a Divine Beast Bloodline?" The face of a Taotie Race Elder changed.

The Great Elder deeply furrowed his brow and said gravely, "Explain in detail, what exactly happened?"

The three Elders and the Child Emperor exchanged glances, then recounted the events truthfully.

"That kid is truly that formidable?" After hearing the account, the Taotie Race Clan Leader’s face turned extremely dark, and he angrily asked, "Who on earth is he, and why is he helping the Ice Phoenix?"

An Elder said, "Clan Leader, we don’t know his background either, but his power is extremely terrifying; it’s entirely at the Middle Stage of demigod, or even more frightening. Even at our peak strength, we weren’t his match."

"Outrageous!" The Taotie Race Clan Leader slammed the table in anger, his face dark with rage, "Our Ancient Taotie Race has suffered such a loss at the hands of a junior. If this gets out, where will our Ancient Taotie Race’s dignity be?"

Dignity?

How many in the Demon Realm even know of the Ancient Taotie Race’s existence?
