Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 1447 - Goddess Guardians

Li Wushuang was a hot potato. Now that they had achieved their goal, it was better to act quickly. Long Wanying was extremely unwilling, but could only watch as the Saintdragon Emperor tossed her over to Li Xiaoyan.

Upon inspecting her, he coldly glared at the Seven Dragon Imperials and asked, "What’d you do to her?"

"She fell unconscious on her own. If you want to know the answer, ask your emperor!" Long Wanying retorted.

Li Xiaoyan coldly snorted. But when he caught a glimpse of Li Wushuang's ghost-faced bane-ring, his eyelids twitched and he quickly blocked it.

"What happened to Lady Wushuang?" The Torchdragon Emperor and the others asked with concern.

"It's no big deal. She’s unconscious but uninjured," Li Xiaoyan replied.

"That's a relief."

"I'll take her to rest." With that, Li Xiaoyan left and quietly glanced at Li Wushuang's other bane-rings.

"They’re all starting to change...." If he looked closely, he could see that every moon-shaped bane-ring was turning into a ghostly face. A pair of scarlet eyes had already appeared on some of them.

"After this transformation, Wushuang is probably going to improve by leaps and bounds. I knew it. How could Long Wanying and Yang Ce have captured her? It turns out she was unconscious." Li Xiaoyan turned and looked at Long Wanying in the distance, his eyes filled with killing intent.

...

With the exchange of the hostages, there was no need to fight each other. For the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect, the safe return of the three Dragon Imperials was a great joy. They had greatly benefited today.

"Withdraw."

At the order of the Saintdragon Emperor, the more than twenty million troops retreated and dispersed like the tide.

"Don't be so pleased with yourselves, this isn’t over!" those from the Veildragon Palace continued shouting.

"Hide your children. Make sure we can’t find them."

"They speak with such unyielding character, but they’re all trash."

"No wonder they’ve fallen to second place on the myriad sect ranking. Their descendents are good-for-nothings."

During this period of time, the juniors and youthgrand disciples of the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect had had a hard time.

"Who was the one with the Ninedragon Imperius? Was it Long Longlong? He’s lost one of his balls."

"He was a sissy to begin with, but now he’s no different from a woman, and he’s the Saintdragon Emperor’s grandson!"

The Veildragon Palace relied on such tactics to humiliate the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect. With so many people gathered in the Myriaddragon Mountains, there was bound to be conflict. Even so, there wouldn’t be a fight today.

But at this moment, a pair of sharp eyes noticed the white-haired young man beside Long Wanying.

"Who’s that? He’s rather familiar."

"I think that’s Li Tianming!"

"Isn't he in the Azurecloud Continent?"

In an instant, the juniors of the Veildragon Palace and celestial orderians turned and stared at him.

"Li Tianming!" They shouted.

Tianming turned around.

"It's really him!"

The juniors were in an uproar.

"He’s the one who defeated Li Haochen twice."

"Among those under thirty, he’s invincible."

"Who cares if he’s below the age of thirty? The sun emperor said that everyone who’s under a hundred years old are youths that should learn from each other and keep fighting!"

"Let me get payback on behalf of Li Haochen."

"Stop bragging. Get Li Shenjian and Long Renshe. Li Tianming should be dealt with by people like them. Only then will he be crushed and humiliated."

The masses continued discussing amongst themselves. Unbeknownst to them, the two people they were talking about were looking at the white-haired young man from a distant corner. These youthgrand disciples were over thirty years old.

"The two of you have a new goal. Isn’t it more interesting to beat up Li Tianming, since he’s the benchmark for the Myriad Solar Sects?"

At this moment, many were looking for them.

...

On the other side, the three Dragon Imperials from the Veildragon Palace ordered the others to retreat. Silence descended upon the great hall when a gold transmission stone arrived. The sun emperor’s figure seemed visible amid the golden flames. action

"Greetings, Your Solar Majesty!" The three dragon imperials fell to their knees.

"Is Wushuang all right?" asked the sun emperor.

"The Flamefiend Lord says she’s fine, but she was unconscious. He’s already taken her to rest," the Torchdragon Emperor reported.

The sun emperor nodded.

Gritting his teeth, the Torchdragon Emperor added, "Your Solar Majesty, judging from their reaction today, it won’t be easy to subdue them bit by bit. They still have twenty million people. Even if they’re constrained, they still have confidence in their combat power, which makes it difficult to demolish their fighting spirit. If we want them to surrender, we must frighten them. Our army must surpass them in numbers.”

"You're right, especially the second point." The sun emperor smiled.

"Then…."

"The Myriaddragon Mountains falls under the Myriad Solar Sect’s territory. It isn’t a problem for the Veildragon Palace to return, but the presence of five million celestial orderians is a thorn in their side. Sending more people isn’t appropriate.”

"Then we have to find an opportunity to intimidate them, so they truly fear us,” said the Torchdragon Emperor.

"It's alright. We’ll let nature take its course. Forget about intimidating them." The sun emperor smiled.

"Yes." The Torchdragon Emperor lowered his head. Although their progress was slow, the sun emperor didn’t seem to be in a hurry. There was nothing he could do about that.

"There’s one more thing," the sun emperor added.

"Please tell me!"

"The Xuanyuan Dragon Sect has been so bold to kidnap my sister. It seems we can’t rely on the Myriad Solar Sects. My daughter has expressed her intention to visit the Myriad Solar Sects to relax and see Long Renshe. I must send people to protect her so the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect doesn't hold her hostage."

"How many people will you send to protect her, Your Solar Majesty?" The Torchdragon Emperor’s eyes lit up.

"Although she’s the Ninemoon Goddess, we can’t be too excessive. Let’s keep it simple—I’ll send fifteen million people!" the sun emperor said with a smile.

Fifteen million celestial orderians! That was equivalent to the number of people from the Veildragon Palace as well as the celestial orderians that were already in the Myriaddragon Mountains added up!

"Your Solar Majesty, I’ll prepare to welcome the arrival of the Goddess Guardians!" He had to admit that the sun emperor was amazing. Fifteen million guards? Were they really meant to protect the Ninemoon Goddess?

"Even if the Ninemoon Goddess changes her mind, she’ll still be escorted here." The Torchdragon Emperor smiled. How could the sun emperor be comfortable with sending the Ninemoon Goddess into a hot zone during this period of time?

...

Tianming, Lingfeng, Xiaoxiao, and Long Wanying stayed on Whitesource Peak. They were safer there in the center of the Earthdragon peaks, since the defense formation of the entire mountain was under their control.

"Tianming, the Veildragon Palace and celestial orderian disciples under the age of a hundred will come looking for trouble. Be careful. Their purpose is to humiliate you," Long Wanying reminded him.

"I know!"

Long Wanying didn't think he was weak. As soon as they arrived, twenty million cockroaches began spreading across the entire mountain. Their opponents were extremely devious and some of the disciples were about eighty years old. It was impossible to guard against all of them.

After settling down, Tianming immediately entered the wondersky realm.

"I haven’t had a chance to enter the ninth level of the Violetglory Pagoda and try out the caeli imperius after taking first place on the Violetglory Ranking yet...." Cultivation was his main priority.
