Chapter 988
Gaining Prestige for Gu Family
The 14th!
Each spatial passageway in the eight major palaces opened simultaneously. The first batch of gifted disciples immediately surged into it. The higher ups had already given the orders that whoever did well in this war, whoever had the most kills would be rewarded handsomely.
This excited the geniuses who had longed for a trial even more. They had the urge to rush into the Western Domain and eradicate the entire devil army.
Jiang Chen wasn’t excluded from the group. He, Gu Shuangtan and the rest of Gu Palace’s geniuses went into the spatial passageway in Gu Palace.
Desolate Palace!
“Are you sure that brat is Jiang Chen?”
Desolate Emperor sounded grim while his eyes stared at Desolate Wuleng unblinkingly.
The people below felt so hopeless, even the City Lord no longer tried to comfort himself and the others. Today, they were all destined to die.
“Humph!”
At this second, a cold humph rang like a thunder from the sky. Immediately after that, a brilliant palm the size of ten miles radiated rays of golden light, instantly blowing away the overwhelming devil Qi from the sky.
*Hong Long……*
The large palm carried an unknown weight and fell onto the army of devils.
“Argh…….” “Argh…….”
Numerous miserable screams were heard. The three Third Grade Great Saints had been pulverized into nothingness, without leaving any remains. The palm strike had slapped at least dozens of devils to death.
*Crash……*
Subsequently, another ray of golden light radiated. It was as if this light could blow away the darkness. It enshrouded all the devils above the city and instantly, they were torn apart, leaving nothing behind.
The city that was filled with gloomy Qi speedily recovered its brightness as soon as all the devil Qi vanished. At least more than a thousand devils were killed at that moment.
The cultivators of the city were dumbfounded, standing rooted to where they were. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing. The abrupt excitement that came after the crisis was beyond their imagination.
A youth in white clothes appeared in the sky. He was no stranger. He was no doubt Jiang Chen, but had the appearance of Gu Chen.
“Thank goodness that you have come to our aid. May I ask for your name?”
The City Lord was the first to regain his senses. He saluted deeply at Jiang Chen.
“I am Gu Chen of Gu Family. Why hasn’t the high-rank monks of the Great Lightning Tune Temple come to rescue you all?”
Jiang Chen frowned. Judging from the seriousness and intensity of the battle here, Great Lightning Tune Temple should’ve send some reinforcement to rescue the city.
“I’m afraid that the Great Lightning Tune Temple can’t even protect themselves.”
Sighed the City Lord.
“Alright. I know. The current Great Lightning Tune Temple is no longer the sacred Buddha Sect like before. This city is no doubt remote from the main battlefield, but this shouldn’t be a reason for them to overlook you all. Every other expert who went to the battlefield only did so for their own benefits, but we, the people of Gu Family has come to save lives. Today, I have saved you all and will continue to rescue the other cities. You all should flee to a safer place.”
Said Jiang Chen. The situation in the war with the Devil Race was in Gu Family’s favor. He was going to take this opportunity to gain prestige and gather support from the people and used it against Desolate Palace in the future. It was necessary for the people to know that the Gu Family is the lord of the Heaven and Earth.
