Chapter 444
Chapter 444
In the morning, Chen Yu, Ye Luofeng, and the Scarlet Flame Emperor rushed to the Chu Country's main camp.
In front of the Red Cover City's camp, it was a scene of devastation. Many buildings had been reduced to ruins.
It was obvious that the Chu Country was at a disadvantage in the previous battle and had been pushed all the way to the main camp.
After entering, Chen Yu saw many people recovering from their injuries. A solemn atmosphere pervaded the surroundings.
"Elder Chen!"
"Elder Chen is here!"
Chen Yu's appearance attracted everyone's attention. Their eyes regained their brightness and a trace of hope.
The three southern kingdoms had built up Chen Yu's image as a righteous and heroic figure. Especially in the Chu Country, his influence was so great that a statue was almost built.
In the crowd, a handsome youth with black hair stared at Chen Yu. He was Mei Changqing.
Before Chen Yu appeared, he was the number one prodigy of the Chu Country. He was a famous hero on the battlefield.
However, when the two sides started an all-out war, Mei Changqing realized how weak he was. His strength was negligible in the entire battlefield.
And Chen Yu, who once fought with him in the Blood Burial Garden, was now an elder of the alliance and a hero of the three kingdoms.
"He is the true prodigy."
Mei Changqing sighed and lowered his head.
The current Chen Yu was so powerful that he didn't even have the courage to chase after him.
In the conference hall of the Red Cover City, the upper echelons were gathered. The atmosphere was heavy.
Chen Yu's arrival caused everyone to raise their eyebrows, and they couldn't help but be slightly dazed.
"Elder Chen, you are finally here."
"The current situation is critical. The three major tribes led by the Barbarian Tu Tribe are pressuring us."
Many people sighed.
Chen Yu took a glance. Almost all the elite experts of the Chu Country were here. The Qi Country and the Yan Country each had an Origin Realm expert. It seemed like the Chu Country had sought help from the other two countries.
Chen Yu glanced at Gong Yangshan who was beside him. Gong Yangshan's breathing was weak and his face was pale.
"Elder Chen, the Barbarian Tu Tribe has a saint beast 'Red Eyed Flood Dragon'. We need your Fire Qilin to restrain it. Otherwise, we have no chance of winning."
Palace Head Fu didn't beat around the bush.
"There shouldn't be a problem."
Chen Yu didn't dare to guarantee anything. After all, the Scarlet Flame King wasn't very obedient.
On the other side, a sharp light flashed in Lu Tiezu's eyes. From Chen Yu's words, he could tell that the Fire Kirin and Chen Yu had not signed an ordinary contract. Otherwise, Chen Yu could order the Fire Kirin to do anything. At this moment, Chen Yu would never speak such uncertain words.
"Also, Elder Chen, Elder Mao of Yunyue Gate has been captured by them!"
Palace Master Fu said with an unnatural expression.
"What?"
Immediately, Chen Yu raised an eyebrow as he turned his gaze toward the source of the voice.
At this moment, Palace Master Fu held his breath as he felt a slight pressure.
He couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. He was almost a hundred years old, yet he felt pressured because of a young junior.
"It's like this. According to some information, the enemy has already obtained detailed information about you. In the last battle, they secretly sent people, and some people who have a good relationship with you were all targeted. Elder Mao was unlucky and was captured."
Palace Master Fu said again.
In fact, not only did the enemy make a move on Elder Mao, they also made a move on Chen Yu's shixiong Chang Xuan, Li Dakui, cousin Chen Ying 'er and others.
However, Li Dakui died not long after the battle began. Chang Xuan had an Origin Realm sword talisman given by Chen Yu, which instantly killed the enemy and allowed him to escape. As for Chen Ying 'er, she had many trump cards in her hands, and with the protection of the Heavenly Purple Fox, the enemy didn't succeed.
Only her master, Elder Mao, whose strength didn't change much, was captured by the enemy Origin Realm.
Chen Yu's expression was gloomy, and his brows couldn't help but furrow.
Everything could still be salvaged.
The enemy only captured Elder Mao and would definitely make use of Elder Mao to deal with Chen Yu … …
However, Chen Yu didn't know the enemy's background, and it was uncertain if he could successfully rescue Elder Mao.
Dang! Dang! Dang … …
The bell suddenly rang, and it was very urgent. This meant that the enemy was attacking.
"Go!"
Everyone rushed out of the main hall, and the buildings around the entire Red Cover City kept ringing as people rushed out one after another.
In a short while, the troops were lined up, and under the lead of Ancestor Absolute Yin, they took the initiative to welcome the enemy.
Soon, a huge black shadow appeared in the distance. A formless murderous aura mixed with the dust and rushed towards them.
"Hahaha, this old man thought you would hide. I didn't expect you to have the guts to come out."
An elder with long hair and a white beard walked at the front. He laughed loudly, and his deep voice echoed between heaven and earth.
This person was the chief of the Man Tu Tribe, the leader of the enemy.
"So there are a few more reinforcements."
The Bi Hai chief laughed.
"Eh, Chen Yu has appeared."
An Origin Realm expert from the Man Tu Tribe saw Chen Yu and immediately called out.
"Chen Yu!"
The Man Tu Tribe chief's eyes instantly landed on Chen Yu. His eyes were shining with surprise, anger, hatred, and anticipation.
Although the Man Tu Tribe chief hated Chen Yu to the core, this was the first time the two of them met.
"Haha, bring him up!"
The Man Tu Tribe chief instantly laughed sinisterly.
In a short while, a cage was pushed out from the back. The cage was made of fine steel, and Elder Mao was tied up by fine steel chains, unable to move.
Chen Yu's expression didn't change much, but the murderous intent in his eyes was even more intense.
The rest of the Chu Kingdom's upper echelons had ugly expressions. They were afraid that the Man Tu Tribe chief would use Elder Mao's life to threaten Chen Yu. If Chen Yu didn't participate in the battle, they still had no chance of winning.
The Man Tu Tribe chief laughed evilly. He was preparing his words to humiliate and attack Chen Yu.
But before he could speak, Chen Yu spoke first, "Let go of my master, or I will take your dog life!"
Instantly, the Man Tu Tribe chief's face turned green, and he was extremely angry.
But he maintained his composure and calmed himself down, "Young man, your master is in my hands. I advise you to wipe your mouth clean before you speak!"
"Tell me, what do I have to do to make you let my master go?"
Chen Yu said coldly.
"Tribe chief, make that young man destroy his own cultivation!"
An elder next to the Man Tu Tribe chief said.
His son, Yan Chuan, was the leader of a city and was responsible for Man Rong's safety. However, he died in the hands of Chen Yu. Therefore, he hated Chen Yu a lot.
"Hehe, if someone uses your master to threaten you to destroy your own cultivation, would you agree? Even if they use your son to threaten you, you wouldn't do it. "
The Man Tu Tribe chief chuckled.
"You are right, Tribe Leader!"
The elder lowered his head.
If someone used Yan Chuan's life to threaten him to destroy his own cultivation, he really wouldn't agree.
Family was important, but in this world, power was everything. Without power, life would be worse than death.
Why would a talented person like Chen Yu destroy his own cultivation for a master?
"Chen Yu, let's make a bet."
The Man Tu Tribe chief said.
Although he had a hostage, he couldn't threaten Chen Yu's life.
What he wanted the most was the sacred beast, Fire Qilin, in Chen Yu's hands. Once he got this sacred beast, the Man Tu tribe would have two sacred beasts. Their power would definitely be the strongest among the nine tribes. It would only be a matter of time before they took over the three southern countries.
Therefore, the Fire Qilin was his target.
However, if Chen Yu gave the sacred beast to the enemy, Chen Yu definitely wouldn't agree.
"Speak!"
Chen Yu's brows relaxed.
"Let's fight. If you win, we will let your master go!"
The Man Tu Tribe chief stated his intention, "If I win, the spiritual pet you sent out will be mine!"
"Okay."
Chen Yu had already guessed the Man Tu Tribe chief's intention, but the current situation was much better than he had imagined. At least, Chen Yu wouldn't face a dilemma.
In his heart, Chen Yu couldn't help but think, "It seems that Man Rong's love of beast fighting is inherited from his grandfather. They are indeed a pair of grandfather and grandson."
The higher-ups of Chu had more or less guessed that the Man Tu Tribe chief would definitely send out the Red-eyed Flood Dragon, and Chen Yu would only have a chance of winning if he sent out the Fire Qilin.
However, why was the Man Tu Tribe chief so confident that the Red-eyed Flood Dragon would definitely win?
The Man Tu Tribe chief was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Chen Yu to agree so readily, but he was very confident.
"Okay, Lord Red-eyed Flood Dragon, it's all up to you now!"
The Man Tu Tribe chief said loudly.
Rumble!
In the sky, the fiery clouds rumbled and a huge figure suddenly appeared.
Boom!
The figure emerged from the fiery clouds. It was a Flood Dragon with two horns on its head. Its entire body was fiery red, and its sparkling red eyes were like two little fire pearls. They were incomparably dazzling and emitted the powerful might of a Holy Beast.
"Where is the sacred beast bloodline?"
The Red-eyed Flood Dragon's fiery eyes swept across the people of Chu, causing them to panic.
Chen Yu patted the pet bag and released the Scarlet Flame King.
He had already communicated with the Scarlet Flame King, and the latter also agreed to fight.
The Scarlet Flame King that came out of the storage bag was small in size, and its aura was weak. In the next moment, a surge of fiery energy brewed in its body, and its body instantly grew bigger. Its aura was majestic, and it turned into a ferocious Fire Qilin.
"Your control over your bloodline is so proficient."
The Red-eyed Flood Dragon was a little more interested.
Both of them had the bloodline of a sacred beast flowing in their bodies, but they were not of the same species. The Red-eyed Flood Dragon was looking forward to this battle, looking forward to trampling the other party under its feet.
"A little snake dares to criticize this king?"
The Scarlet Flame King raised his brows, glanced at the Red-eyed Flood Dragon, and said arrogantly.
The Red-eyed Flood Dragon was stunned at first, then it was enraged. Its eyes spewed out flames, and the surrounding fiery clouds rumbled unceasingly, declaring its anger.
"You ….. are courting death ….. I will skin you ….. alive."
Under its anger, the Red-eyed Flood Dragon retorted. However, it had just woken up from its deep slumber, and it wasn't very fluent in the human language. Especially when it came to harsh words, how could it be compared to the Scarlet Flame King.
After this exchange, the Red-eyed Flood Dragon was at a disadvantage.
The people of Chu couldn't help but laugh.
This might seem like a beast battle, but it was actually related to the life and death of the Chu Country.
Once the Fire Qilin was defeated, the Barbarian Tu tribe would have another sacred beast. By then, the Chu Country would truly be finished.
In this exchange of words, the Fire Qilin had the upper hand. On one hand, it showed that it was more intelligent, and the people of Chu Country were naturally happy.
"Chen Yu, we can start now!"
Patriarch Barbarian Tu's expression wasn't good, but he couldn't conceal the excitement in his heart.
"Let's start."
Chen Yu said calmly. He was rather confident in the Scarlet Flame King's ability.
"Fire Qilin, die!"
The Red-eyed Flood Dragon roared, and with a somersault, it dived down.
At this moment, its cultivation was completely unleashed. It was actually at the peak of the initial stage of the Origin Realm.
"How is this possible? A few days ago, it was still at the initial stage of the Origin Realm. Now, it is actually at the peak of the initial stage of the Origin Realm!"
Gong Yangshan exclaimed.
