From a distance, a person clad in armour slowly walked out. The armour shimmered with flowing light, its interwoven patterns complementing his burly physique perfectly, exerting immense pressure on those watching. The person walking out wore a helmet, obscuring his features. However, both the helmet and the armour were clearly top tier treasures. As the patterns upon them flickered, surges of magical power emanated outwards.
This person stepped forward, not looking directly at Ye Chu, but turning his head to bow to Zhong Wei, saying, “Greetings, Miss!”
“Red Dragon General, it is you!” Zhong Wei stared at him, a chill on her exceptionally beautiful face. “You were originally an orphan picked up by the old ancestor. Are you really going to oppose me?”
The Red Dragon General shook his head and smiled. “Miss, your words are too harsh. The Second Elder will forever be Red Dragon’s benefactor. However, Red Dragon is also a general of the Master. The Master has given an order, requesting the Miss to return.”
“What if I do not?” Zhong Wei stared at him and snorted.
“If the Miss insists on not returning, Red Dragon naturally would not dare to attack the Miss. However, the Mengmie Bird will not care about the Miss’s identity.” The Red Dragon General looked at Zhong Wei and said, “Why must the Miss resist? The Master is such an outstanding figure, and the two of you are a perfect match.”
“Go back and tell him to change his temperament first. I am a living, breathing person, and I do not wish to become a puppet under his control.” Zhong Wei stared at the Red Dragon General and said, “I am leaving now. Will you make way or not?”
“The Miss may do as she pleases! However, regarding the person beside the Miss, the Master has specifically ordered that he be crushed to ashes!” As the Red Dragon General spoke, his gaze fell upon Ye Chu. Although those eyes looked at Ye Chu quite calmly, Ye Chu felt a pressure akin to Mount Tai, making it difficult for him to bear.
“You dare!” Zhong Wei roared, glaring fiercely at the Red Dragon General.
The Red Dragon General kept his focus on Ye Chu, ignoring Zhong Wei. “You do have some skill. Despite my few coughs, your primal spirit remains surprisingly steady. If it were not for the fact that you should not have gotten so close to the Miss, I would truly hate to see you die.”
Ye Chu stared at this fully armoured figure, knowing very well in his heart just how terrifying this man was. To be able to shake his primal spirit with just a few coughs meant the opponent’s realm was absolutely terrifying, reaching at least the Profound Ancient Realm.
Although Ye Chu possessed extraordinary strength, facing a cultivator of the Profound Ancient Realm was impossible. The Profound Ancient Realm and the Emperor Realm were two entirely different levels of existence. No matter how heaven defying Ye Chu was within the Emperor Realm, it would be difficult for him to fight against the Profound Ancient Realm.
Ye Chu took a deep breath, placing his hand on his chest.
Hearing the Red Dragon General’s words, a deathly pallor appeared on Zhong Wei’s beautiful face. The Red Dragon General had reached the Profound Ancient Realm years ago. His strength was terrifying, far surpassing that of the Mengmie Bird. Such a person was usually dispatched by him to undertake extremely difficult missions. No one expected him to appear here.
“Ye Chu!” Zhong Wei whispered urgently to Ye Chu. “You must escape as soon as possible. I will hold them off. At most, they will capture me and take me back, but they would not dare to harm me!”
Ye Chu looked at Zhong Wei and smiled. “How can your meagre strength hold them off?”
Having said that, Ye Chu looked towards the Red Dragon General. “It is truly an honour that someone of the Profound Ancient Realm has come to kill me. However, I am quite fond of this life of mine, and I have no intention of giving it away.”
“That is not for you to decide. No one can resist what the Master desires.” As the Red Dragon General spoke, he stepped forward one pace at a time. With each step, a vast, mountain like pressure bore down on Ye Chu, making him feel immensely burdened.
“He is not yet a true Son of Heaven. There are too many things in this world he cannot obtain.” Ye Chu pointed at Zhong Wei behind him and said, “For example, her. Can your Master obtain her?”
“The Master will handle that himself. All that needs to be done now is to make you die!” As the Red Dragon General spoke, his momentum was like a rainbow. He raised his hand slightly, looking at Ye Chu as if looking at a dead man.
His strength was incredibly terrifying. Among Emperors, even the most outstanding talents at the peak of the Emperor Realm could be annihilated by him in a single strike. This person had merely fought the Mengmie Bird to a draw. If he attacked, death was certain.
Ye Chu looked at his raised hand, knowing full well that he was no match for him under any circumstances. The opponent’s realm was too strong. The sheer pressure alone made it hard for him to breathe properly. If a fight truly broke out, he feared he could not withstand even three of his moves.
Just as Ye Chu was preparing to throw out Bai Qingqing, the pressure on him vanished completely. At the same time, a quiet voice rang out, “Since when have the people of our Heartless Peak fallen to the point of being hunted down and killed by others?”
Upon hearing this voice, Ye Chu’s face lit up with great joy. The hand on his chest relaxed, and he looked into the distance. He saw Jin Wawa holding a massive gold ingot, stepping down from the void and landing right beside Ye Chu.
“Why are you here?” Ye Chu was extremely excited, never having expected Jin Wawa to appear here.
Jin Wawa stroked the gold ingot in his hands a few times, ignored Ye Chu completely, and turned to shout at Zhong Wei and the Mengmie Bird group, “This God of Wealth has descended to the mortal realm. Hurry up and bring out the gold ingot treasures as offerings!”
This single sentence left Zhong Wei staring blankly at Jin Wawa. Seeing him obsessively hugging the gold ingot, she wondered what kind of madman this was.
Seeing Zhong Wei in a daze, Ye Chu quickly gave her a look, signalling her to hand over some gold ingots to Jin Wawa.
Noticing Ye Chu’s signal, Zhong Wei then took out a few gold ingots and handed them to Jin Wawa.
Upon receiving these ingots, Jin Wawa’s face immediately blossomed into a smile. “Excellent! Truly a sensible believer. This God of Wealth will bless you with immense wealth!”
Only after saying this did he turn his gaze to Ye Chu. “You madman always make this God of Wealth and Heartless Peak lose face out there.”
Ye Chu took a deep breath, telling himself to endure it. Compared to madmen like Jin Wawa, he was indeed inferior.
After scorning Ye Chu, Jin Wawa looked at Zhong Wei again. “However, you madman are truly sick, always having women by your side. How can women be better than gold ingots? Tell me, if you give this God of Wealth a hundred or eighty gold ingots, shall I find you a hundred or eighty women?”
Ye Chu took a deep breath, not wanting to speak with this madman, and turned his head, pretending not to have heard a word.
“For Heartless Peak to produce such a tasteless fellow as you is truly disgraceful!” Jin Wawa voiced the very words Ye Chu wanted to say, making Ye Chu clench his fists so tightly he wished he could lunge at him.
Looking at Ye Chu’s ashen face, Zhong Wei could not help but whisper to him, “Who is he? Are you very familiar with him?”
“He is one of my senior martial brothers!” Ye Chu replied to Zhong Wei, and then added, “Let me remind you, if he asks you for gold ingots, you must give them to him. He is a madman. If you do not give them to him, he has many ways to torment you.”
“…” Zhong Wei looked at Jin Wawa, wondering what kind of person this was. However, when she noticed the Red Dragon’s grave expression, her heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that this person made even the Red Dragon cautious?!
