Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2677: 868:

In the past, when Yangming True Master was only a Nascent Soul Cultivator, he could already join forces with Azure Phoenix True Monarch to counterattack a Nascent Soul.

Now this person has broken through to Nascent Soul, and even his Spiritual Pets have all broken through; if he cooperates with Azure Phoenix True Monarch again, our Shadow Sect won’t be a match at all!

"Spare me, True Monarch..."

Yingshou’s heart was filled with panic and unease as he begged Lu Changsheng for mercy, unwilling to die like this.

After all, once one’s Cultivation Level reached this step, how many would be willing to give up their life?

Lu Changsheng cast him a faint glance; the latter instantly blacked out and was tossed into the Formless Domain.

He didn’t kill him because Lu Changsheng felt that his methods were somewhat similar to those of the Shadow Sect.

He wanted to pry some intelligence and information out of his hands.

Otherwise he would have already wiped him out.

Lu Changsheng took out a bottle of Elixir Medicines from his Storage Ring, handed it to his son, and asked about the situation.

Lu Lingxiao stopped circulating his Divine Skills; the face beneath the gilded mask instantly turned pale as paper. After swallowing the Elixir Medicines, he felt slightly relieved and began to explain to Lu Changsheng the situation on the Red Peak Mountain Range’s side.

He stated that the Red Peak Mountain Range had already been overrun by the Liang Country and Yuan Country armies.

Lu Qingxuan and the others were, in all likelihood, in grave danger.

He himself had narrowly escaped, because he sensed danger in advance and also received Lu Qingxuan’s warning, so he withdrew ahead of time.

Only, when he and Lu Mingfeng were fleeing, Yingshou suddenly appeared and attacked.

When Lu Changsheng heard this, he pinched his fingers to calculate the situation of his son Lu Mingfeng.

The latter’s luck was quite good; he had not been transferred into the Red Peak Mountain Range, so for the moment he was not in danger.

"I will head to the Red Peak Mountain Range now. You go rest inside the Tianyuan Lotus first."

Lu Changsheng saw that his son’s condition was very poor and that he needed calm recuperation; the Tianyuan Lotus appeared in his hand.

Lu Lingxiao looked at the Tianyuan Lotus, around which spatial ripples were undulating, and reminded in a low voice, "Father, I heard news that Purple Light True Lord’s Magic Body has been destroyed."

"Although the news might not be reliable, the fact that Purple Light Immortal City fell so quickly proves that many Nascent Soul True Lords must have come to the Red Peak battlefront!"

"Don’t worry." Lu Changsheng patted his shoulder.

Lu Lingxiao said nothing more and entered the Tianyuan Lotus to regulate his breathing.

Meanwhile, Qian Zhuyan stepped out from the Tianyuan Lotus, his voice hoarse as he called out to Lu Changsheng, "My Lord."

"Little Yan, get ready."

Lu Changsheng spoke to Qian Zhuyan, then signaled the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng to continue flying toward Red Peak Immortal City.

Though the Red Peak Mountain Range battlefront had already been taken by the Liang Country and Yuan Country armies,

And Red Peak Immortal City possibly housed many Nascent Soul True Lords,

Lu Changsheng had firm confidence in his own strength and felt no fear.

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng let out a shrill cry; Fourth Rank Demon Evil Qi spread unrestrained, and it streaked toward Red Peak Immortal City.

"What kind of Qi Mechanism is that? How terrifying!?"

"A Fourth Rank Demon King!? Could it be Nine Spirits True Monarch descending?"

"No, that’s not our Supreme Elder’s Golden Lion King!"

At this moment, the Jiang Country and Yue Country strongholds within the Red Peak Mountain Range had basically been taken, most occupied by Liang Country Demonic Path Cultivators.

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng swept across the Heavenly Dome, Fourth Rank Demon King Qi Mechanism soaring skyward, making the Cultivators in the mountains tremble in fear.

Their first reaction was to suspect that Nine Spirits True Monarch had arrived, or Beast God Mountain’s strongest Beast Taming Divine Beast, the Golden Lion King.

However, there were quite a few Cultivators from Beast God Mountain present, and they could tell this was not their Golden Lion King.

"Hurry and notify True Monarch Youyue..."

Within the Red Peak Mountain Range, the Demon Beasts had long been cleansed by Yue Country; there were no Fourth Rank Demon Kings.

Now a Fourth Rank Demon King suddenly appeared, and it was so aggressive—something was clearly off.

A Nascent Soul Immortal from Liang Country immediately notified the Nether Moon Saintess.

...

Red Peak Immortal City.

"A Fourth Rank Demon King!?"

The Nether Moon Saintess was interrogating Cultivators in the Prisoner of War Camp about the situation when she received the news. Her brows instantly knit together as she sensed something amiss and asked about the appearance of this Fourth Rank Demon King.

"Saintess, we could not see clearly, but it should be a flying avian Demon King..."

This Nascent Soul Cultivator replied.

Faced with a Fourth Rank Demon King, they truly did not dare to use their Spiritual Eye Divine Ability to observe, lest they anger it.

So from far away, they could only vaguely discern that it was a golden Divine Bird.

"Golden... flying bird?"

Upon hearing this, the Nether Moon Saintess paused inwardly, and instantly recalled the Yangming True Monarch that her clan’s Patriarch had mentioned.

According to Nine Spirits True Monarch’s speculation, Xuanjian True Monarch suddenly leaving the Yue Country front line and letting Absolute Sword True Monarch take his place was very likely because he went to invite reinforcements.

Among them was this Yangming True Monarch.

"Yangming True Monarch..."

Purple light shimmered in the Nether Moon Saintess’s eyes as she lightly licked her red lips. This name was not unfamiliar to her.

Back then, he resisted the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master, causing Heavenly Fiend True Monarch to be slain by Xuanjian True Monarch, and had already been placed on their watch list.

Afterwards he destroyed Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s Magic Body, leading Beast God Mountain and the Liang Country armies to suffer miserable losses.

"Patriarch!"

Though she was still not fully certain, the Nether Moon Saintess remained extremely composed.

She directly activated a Transmission Talisman and reported this news to her Patriarch, Nine Spirits True Monarch.

After all, Yangming True Monarch had displayed astonishing battle strength even during his Core Formation Stage.

Now that he had broken through to Nascent Soul and possessed the strength to slay Ming Sha True Monarch, he was absolutely not someone she could handle.

"You are to fully activate The Celestial City Formation. If this person is indeed Yangming True Monarch, inform me via Transmission at once, and I will order Heavenly Silkworm and Netherworld to hurry back."

Hearing that the Nether Moon Saintess was only speculating, Nine Spirits True Monarch spoke out, lest this be a lure tactic from Yue Country.

Even so, he was still quite cautious.

He instructed the Nether Moon Saintess that if it truly was Yangming True Monarch, she must never engage him; if anything seemed off, she was to retreat immediately.

"Yes, Patriarch."

The Nether Moon Saintess assented verbally, but a trace of dissatisfaction flickered in her eyes.

After all, during the Core Formation Stage, she too had been one of the foremost figures of her realm.
