Chapter 1916: Dead end Sky King

The big Western Sky’s side’s great king was still incapable of going out to battle. Not only was he incapable of battling, but instead he still needed big Western Sky’s quite strong personal guards to stay by his side to act as protectors… naturally they also weren’t able to participate in the fight.

Even maintaining this strength of security was still not enough to let Meng Tianluo feel reassured. Among the four pillars of wind and rain, thunder and lightning, he still had one person remain behind from the remaining two.

(TLN: Wind and Rain are Feng (风) and Yu (雨) as in Feng Nuchao (风怒潮) and Yu Luochen (雨落尘) and Thunder and Lightning are Lei (雷) and Dian (电) as in Lei Weiqi (mentioned later, 雷为旗) and Dian Changkong (典长空). 电 is pronounced dian4 and 典 is pronounced dian3. They use 电 here to keep with the theme.)

Since this happened, then, although originally there should be ten or so experts of the level of the Seven Golden Lotuses who could put up a response, in the end they only had Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao who could take action. The strength to withstand them was naturally comparatively unbalanced, and although they wanted to fight they had no way of actually doing it.

Even more frightening was, four big experts’ Dian Changkong, who they were originally counting on to go out and stabilize the army’s morale, unexpectedly went out and carelessly lost his life…

This many coincidences, causing this many layers upon layers of shocks, how could the big Western Sky not be defeated in a landslide defeat?

At this sort of chaotic time, even if the five big Sky Kings simultaneously appeared among the great armies of the four sides, they might not have had the ability to recover the army’s already defeated morale!

Besides… the remaining four side Sky Kings fundamentally just wouldn’t come to assist them. Although the current situation looked as if it was the five sides Sky Kings jointly sending a punitive expedition against Big Mister Ye and Heaven’s Leaf, in reality how was it not dirty between them? If one’s own side went undamaged while one or two of the other Sky Kings perished, the survivors would all look favorably on it, so much so that they might not use their strength to help each other out!

This is precisely the schemes of kings. Inside the hearts of kings, there are never eternal friends or enemies, the only eternal thing is benefits!

After this big battle, the desolation filled the eyes of any who looked on.

It was eye-catching to see. All four directions had rolling thick smoke rising from the ground.

This was actually from burning the corpses.

Regardless of whether one was originally a powerhouse or an expert, dead just meant dead. A corpse was a corpse, and there were too many corpses. If they weren’t buried for a long time, a plague could subsequently start.

Plague, there was no exception just because the corpses were from powerhouses!

Big Western Sky side’s main army from top to bottom was completely covered in a gloomy fog cloud of worry.

This event of assembling the troops strength it could be said was an astronomical figure for the big Western Sky. Regardless of whether it was the Seven Golden Lotuses’ vast firepower and attack range or Ye Xiao’s impressive hundred person team, because they killed so many officers and soldiers in the fight, no more than one or two out of ten remained. After they were utterly defeated and trampled, those who were discouraged and wandered off were no less than two or three out of ten.

This meant that among the remaining soldiers, the majority were also all easily frightened.

Many small team leaders in the army, as long as they heard the slightest whiff of trouble immediately had panic spread across their faces, and prepared to proceed with escaping.

With this kind of appearance how could they still go to war?

Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao were spitting blood.

They were not only spitting blood because of anxiety over the current condition, but also had really gotten hit hard to cause a large amount of bloodshed.

With the strength of just those two, they strove to lead the charge against the fierce Seven Golden Lotuses with their subordinates. This originally wasn’t strong enough to catch them in the first place.

After this big fight was completed, not only had the two people’s trusted aides and elite personnel all died down to the last man, those two people themselves were also hit by master assassin Blood River’s sudden ambush in the middle of the warfare.

Right now they had exceptionally critical injuries.

This was just from one strike from Blood River, after which he immediately disappeared and didn’t finish out the kill. If not, it’s likely that those two people would have already died in the middle of that battle!

Blood River’s disappearance was not without cause, naturally. This guy’s eyes had seen that the big Western Sky’s senior ministers and generals had gone together to battle helplessly. Boss Ye as well as himself and his many brothers were at hand, and something was up. Using his heart, he reckoned that those two people from the big Western Sky were just putting up a front, and that the truth was that the Western Sky King was perhaps not in a good condition, caught up in some sort of situation where he couldn’t use force!

Therefore…

Someone directly wanted to touch the Western Sky big king’s place of seclusion, and in one action behead the army, creating a legend of ‘assassinating a Sky King’…

One can’t help but say that this imagining was basically matched up with the facts, besides… Big Western Sky couldn’t stop these two people, Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao. Meng Tianluo was too afraid of dying, therefore all of the big Western Sky’s top-notch strength was all gathered to protect his majesty. To this extent, apart from the angered action of four big experts’ Lei Weiqi, ten imperial guards also attacked Blood River from all sides. This kind of battle formation, don’t even mention Blood River, even if Big Mister Ye went in person he wouldn’t be able to get the desired outcome. Even more frightening was that Western Sky big king Meng Tianluo had more or less recovered a portion of his strength after some healing. He thus quenched this sneak attack, almost turning Blood River into smoke and ashes with one slap. Spitting a big mouthful of blood, he fled for his life…

Even though Meng Tianluo had somewhat recovered, looking at this already rotten situation, he could only retreat. He had no other way of reversing the situation.

Once he arrived several tens of thousands of li outside along his retreat, during the next time that he rearranged his personnel, he only then had discovered that of the Four Big Pillars, Wind and Rain, Thunder and Lightning, Dian Changkong hadn’t returned.”

“Where’s Dian Changkong?”

Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao simultaneously lowered their heads, looking completely mournful across their whole faces.

Only seeing these two people’s complexions, Meng Tianluo then knew the result.

He stupidly stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly again “pu” sprayed out another mouthful of bright purple-gold blood…

Just like the time when he was informed of Meng Wuzhen’s death, his state of mind was similarly wounded, adding injury on top of injury.

Meng Tianluo’s already grizzled and greying hair unexpectedly changed to become thoroughly snow white.

At this moment, this once magnificent Sky King’s expression was unexpectedly and conspicuously vacant.

Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao’s pale complexions, as well as their weak feeling after all those serious injuries, hadn’t been seen for 100,000 years. It was really enough to shock the eye and astonish the heart.

“Those days… our 18 brothers together stormed the picturesque rivers and mountains. This many years have passed, and already I have had 11 people leave me forever and go… up to the present, I originally thought that I wouldn’t have any of our old brothers leave once more. Our same trials and tribulations were also our common riches and honor.

Meng Tianluo’s complexion paled. “Unexpectedly, Changkong actually also left, because of me… because of my cause.”

Everyone else was simultaneously a bit sad, as Meng Tianluo’s words also jabbed right at their own worries.

“My Divine Soul’s creation, originated from the root, beforehand also because of Blood River was forced to take action… During the next short amount of time, it will be absolutely hard to return and recover, changing the turn I am unable to set about the task…” Meng Tianluo’s expression was downcast and gloomy, and had a kind of ‘discouraged’ feeling suddenly rush up in his mind.

“Luochen, Nuchao, you two and the Seven Golden Lotuses fought hand to hand, how did it feel?” Meng Tianluo raised his head to look at Yu Luochen.

“We were no match!” Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao’s faces both exposed a sort of ashamed anger, following which, they again sighed.

“You were no match?” Meng Tianluo said, “What if you fought alone? If I remember in those years Luochen was indeed capable of directly putting a steady pressure on Guan Shanyao.”

“What I just said was one on one combat. Right now Guan Shanyao and the others would directly pressure me. Were it not for relying on our larger numbers for more power, contending with them, this day perhaps wouldn’t be limited to just the death of Old Dian!” Ye Luochen bitterly said.

Meng Tianluo, having heard what was said, stared for a time. A long, long time afterwards, he bitterly smiled and shook his head, sighing, “Should be…”

Yu Luochen and Feng Nuchao again were simultaneously a bit sad.

With a cultivation level as deep as them, they could only want and wish for it to not be so clear.
