Immortal Skills - Chapter 534
534 Sha Luo’s Choice
The Ancient Saint of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect!
After Jiang Ming heard this, he fell into a daze. Wasn’t this Ancient Saint of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect purely the founder of the orthodoxy? Or did he also lead troops into battle?
“However, this also explains why the Ancient Yin Yang Sect has such a high status in the Yin Yang Empire.”
Jiang Ming rubbed his temples, and his eyes flashed.
“What happened after the Northern Yan Dynasty was destroyed? Why didn’t the Yin Yang Empire occupy their territory?”
Tuoba Kui’s face suddenly darkened. He slowly said, “We’ll have to ask Reverend Mo about this.”
“What do you mean? What does it have to do with Mo Lingche?”
Jiang Ming could not help but raise his eyebrows. He felt that was not smart enough to understand this!
At this moment, Tuoba Kui took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “You should know a little about the fact that Reverend Mo is the reincarnation of an immortal.”
“Yes.”
“However, Mo Lingche didn’t just reincarnate once. His previous name was Ye Bushou.”
Ye Bushou?
Jiang Ming was stunned. At this moment, Rao Wuqing said, “I know a little about this secret. It is said that Ye Bushou was a very arrogant thief. His strength was extremely extraordinary, and he has done countless terrible things. He has massacred several cities and countries.”
These small countries were definitely weaker than the Feather Kingdom. Just having Nascent Soul Realm cultivators was a feat for them.
Jiang Ming’s eyelids twitched. He had never expected Mo Lingche to have such a past life.
“However, in this life, Mo Lingche seems to have transformed into a great benefactor who helped the world. He is in charge of protecting the peace of the Feather Kingdom. How was he actually so cruel in his previous life?” Wu Ming asked.
“It is said that the Ye Bushou of the previous life was overpowered by Mo Lingche’s evil thoughts, while the Ye Bushou of this life was overpowered by good thoughts, thus forming two completely different personalities,” Rao Wuqing replied.
Jiang Ming shook his head. He did not think that Mo Lingche was truly a good Samaritan now. He could only say that he was hiding his true personality well. In front of outsiders, he appeared to be a good Samaritan. However, he could feel that Mo Lingche was a very shrewd person.
Jiang Ming took a deep breath. After confirming that the Helian Xia soldiers had been killed, he immediately looked at Wu Ming.
“Wu Ming, I’ll have to trouble you to scout ahead. You must ensure that we don’t encounter more powerful enemies.”
Wu Ming nodded. If he were alone, it would be easy for him to escape.
However, if they brought everyone forward, they would definitely suffer heavy losses if they encountered an enemy that was too powerful for them!
“As for all of you, form a battle formation. If you encounter the Helian Xia troops, cut through them and end this battle as soon as possible!”
Jiang Ming knew very well that the historical Battle of the White Horse River was extremely cruel.
This time, it was clearly the Battle of the White Horse River. However, it was different from the past. The people here were all undead soldiers and generals. Once they stayed in this place for too long, they would definitely be tainted by the Netherworld Qi. If that happened, they would be in big trouble.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After the explosions sounded, Jiang Ming quickly led everyone forward. Along the way, they encountered many troops of the Helian Xia army, and they were quickly killed.
However, there were also significant losses.
“Master Ning, we can’t afford to lose so many people…I think it’s more convenient for you to lead us. After all, your strength is sufficient. With you leading the way in front, we can also replenish our strength better at the back…”
A powerhouse from the Giant Rock Sect came forward. He was spewing nonsense. Without needing Jiang Ming to do anything, Wu Hen immediately went forward and aimed his spear at the powerhouse’s throat.
“If you have the guts, repeat what you just said!”
This time, the face of the powerhouse from the Giant Rock Sect suddenly darkened. He never thought that before Jiang Ming could speak, a Golden Core Realm cultivator from the Flowerfruit Sect would dare to attack him!
“There’s definitely something wrong with these people’s brains if they think that spewing such nonsense is appropriate!”
Gu Chi sneered.
Sha Luo, who had already woken up, chose to remain silent. After a long while, he suddenly said, “Holy Son Gu Chi, do you think we should surrender to Ning Caichen?”
“What do you mean?”
Gu Chi was startled and cried out, “Don’t joke around! You are a Seed of the Hall of Slaughter, the future Prince of Slaughter. Is there a need to do something so foolish?”
Sha Luo shrugged and said indifferently, “I have always admired the strong… Before this, I thought that Ning Caichen was just average and that I could easily destroy him. However, after fighting with Ning Caichen time and time again, I realized that I was no match for him in every aspect… Most importantly, haven’t you noticed that Ning Caichen treats his people very well?”
“How does that matter? You and I are not ordinary people. You are a Slaughter Seed, and I am the top Holy Son of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land. We are both prominent people. Why should we care about Ning Caichen?”
Gu Chi felt that there was something wrong with Sha Luo’s brain. Otherwise, he definitely would not have asked such a question.
However, Sha Luo’s gaze was exceptionally firm.
“These are just my thoughts. Since you want to surrender, why don’t you choose the most reliable person to surrender to? Obviously, Ning Caichen is the most reliable person here!”
This time, Gu Chi was about to explode from anger. He had never thought that Sha Luo would say such words. This was simply a disgrace to the Hall of Slaughter!
However, Sha Luo did not care. Therefore, Gu Chi could only say in a muffled voice, “Then, go ahead and surrender…”
“You have to surrender too, or I’ll kill you.”
Gu Chi was rendered speechless!
At this moment, Jiang Ming came over and happened to overhear their conversation.
“Sha Luo, are you prepared to surrender to me?”
Even Jiang Ming was surprised. Why did Sha Luo suddenly want to surrender to him?
At this moment, Gu Chi’s lips twitched. How good was this guy’s hearing? The two of them were talking in such a low voice. However, Jiang Ming could still hear them!
Sha Luo ignored Gu Chi and looked at Jiang Ming seriously. He said slowly, “That’s right. I want to surrender to you. After all, I have always admired strong and outstanding leaders… Even if I return and become a candidate for the Prince of Slaughter, unless I get the position, I’m destined to serve them. I know that I am not strong enough, it’s very likely that I’ll become cannon fodder… In that case, it would be better to choose another wise master, and you, Ning Caichen, are undoubtedly the best choice!”
