Chapter 471 – Poisonous Nether Toad
“What’s wrong? Did you guys not hear what I said?”
Wu Ningzhu’s eyes widened.
Xu Danian and the few others dared not show any neglect, and immediately bowed toward Wu Ningzhu. As the Profound River Palace’s Holy Maiden, Wu Ningzhu held a superior position, and it was much more supreme than that of these people. Also, as she possessed a formidable cultivation base, she was the one most likely to break through to the Combat King realm next. Thus, no one dared show her any disrespect.
However, Xu Danian still voiced out his doubts, “Holy Maiden, Lord Nether is not an ordinary Demon King, he has a very strong cultivation base, and he employs brutal and cruel tactics. He is an existence who is very difficult to handle. May I know how Holy Maiden is planning on rescuing our people?”
If it was during a more stable time, Xu Danian would never have been able to find the courage to doubt Wu Ningzhu’s words. However, since they were now in a very critical situation that concerned the survival of humans in the Southern Continent, and even Wu Ningzhu herself, Xu Danian had to find the answer. With that, when he returned to the Profound River Palace, he would be able to answer the Palace Chief.
“Let me introduce a person to you all.”
Wu Ningzhu turned to Jiang Chen. An infatuated and prideful look emerged in her eyes as she said, “This young man is Jiang Chen, the man who killed those four guardians in the Dancing Sun City, and he is also the man who defeated me in the Nangong Family, and the peerless genius who attracted Heavenly Tribulation when breaking through to the Early Combat Soul realm.”
“What Little Chen said is correct. This battle will have a great influence on the future of the Southern Continent, so we have to bring up the spirit of the humans. We’ll wait until Lord Nether makes his move tomorrow before we strike. Not only will we catch them unprepared like that, we will also strengthen the spirit of the humans.”
Wu Ningzhu fully agreed with Jiang Chen’s plan.
Thus, the group led by Jiang Chen hid somewhere outside Mount Nether. The next morning, the peaceful atmosphere surrounding Mount Nether was broken by countless ground-shaking roars of demons, like a cry for battle. The entire Mount Nether had become restless.
A nearly 300 meter tall platform was quickly built. A gigantic steel cage was placed on top of this platform. A bit more than three hundred young men could be seen trapped in this cage, and all of them wore furious expressions. Many of them were covered in blood, and had bodies riddled with scars. They had clearly suffered torture from these demons. The cage was covered with a powerful demonic energy, that’s why these genius couldn’t break this cage and free themselves.
