Chapter 187 - Returning to Archean Mountain (1/2)

Stunned still, Yang Fang didn’t touch his roasted meat.

“What will it be like when a large number of demon monarchs enter the human world?” Meng Chuan asked softly.

“I don’t know.” Zhang Yunfeng said, “I’ve never experienced such a thing before. All I know is that many mortals will die.”

“When the time comes, demon monarchs will be in all corners of the world. War can happen at any moment,” said Yang Fang. “The number of third Firmament demon monarchs will far exceed the number of Great Solar G.o.dfiends. Of course, our advantage is that we have a large group of Marquis G.o.dfiends. They can exterminate demon monarchs everywhere. Regis G.o.dfiends will also be patrolling the world. Therefore, demon monarchs won’t gather on a large scale. They will definitely scatter and hide.”

“Archean Mountain will definitely come up with a strategy to deal with the demon monarchs,” said Zhang Yunfeng. “Black Sand Grotto-Heaven and Two World Island will also have plans.”

“Let’s just follow future arrangements,” said Meng Chuan. He felt as though the future was shrouded in fog, making it difficult to see clearly.

What did the future hold? In what direction was the human world heading in?

Meng Chuan had no idea. He only knew that he needed to become stronger. With Demon Slayer in hand, he would ma.s.sacre demons in his wake!

…

After the Great Relocation Plan ended, Meng Chuan and company waited for half a month before a Marquis G.o.dfiend—Marquis Swallow Mountain—took over Jiang State Capital.

“Have a pleasant journey.” Marquis Swallow Mountain, Dean Chang, and the other G.o.dfiends came to send them off.

The three of them jumped onto the bird’s back. The bird spread its wings and soared into the sky, pa.s.sing through clouds and disappearing from sight.

“I wonder when we will meet again.” Dean Chang sighed. “It’s really all thanks to Senior Brother Zhang and the others.”

“Even if I were to guard Jiang State Capital personally, I wouldn’t have done it any better.”

For the past seven months, Meng Chuan and company had contributed greatly to Jiang State Capital.

During the large-scale attack that fateful day, the demon monarchs charged into the city began ma.s.sacring the population. They had suffered great losses back then—over 100,000 casualties. However, even if a Marquis G.o.dfiend guarded Jiang State Capital, they would still be powerless to deal with the situation. In fact, a Marquis G.o.dfiend wasn’t even as fast as Meng Chuan when it came to chasing demon monarchs! The trio’s achievement of slaying the fourth Firmament Skydemon, Blackwater Palace Lord, was very astonis.h.i.+ng.

After that, Jiang State Capital didn’t encounter any more attacks.

…

The bird flew high into the clouds as Meng Chuan and company drank and chatted. With their new orders, they would be separated completely.

After all, with Marquis G.o.dfiends guarding various areas, the three of them no longer needed to be together.

Although some fourth Firmament demon monarchs still lurked, G.o.dfiends never paid much attention while riding birds. Firstly, the world was vast, so the probability of encountering one another was very low. Secondly, a fourth Firmament demon monarch didn’t have the guys to fly for too long. It was too easy for them to be discovered if they did so. Since the Marquis G.o.dfiends no longer had to protect the small and medium-sized city pa.s.ses, they would be finished the moment they were discovered.

“We’ve arrived at Archean Mountain.” Late into the night, the bird finally arrived at Archean Mountain.

Meng Chuan returned to his cave abode at Bright Scenic Peak and gently knocked on the door.

The door to the cave abode opened, and Steward Liu welcomed him personally.

“My lord.” Steward Liu was rather excited. “Recently, many G.o.dfiends returned to Archean Mountain. I figured that you were coming back. Now, only two old servants clean the residence. I will have the other servants back here tomorrow morning.”

“Oh, is Qiyue back?” inquired Meng Chuan.

Steward Liu was taken aback as he shook his head. “No!”

“Oh? The Great Relocation Plan is over, but she hasn’t returned?” Meng Chuan frowned slightly before walking into his cave abode and instructing, “Prepare some hot water for me. I want to take a bath.”

“Yes.” Steward Liu was extremely happy. He and two old servants handled the upkeep of the cave abode since Meng Chuan had descended the mountain. Meng Chuan’s return delighted them.
