Chapter 403
Qiong Shang's features were destroyed, so nobody could tell who he was . All they knew was that he was a normal guy who was okay at fighting . Also, he maybe had some sort of bloodline .
Making his way towards a hill, Qiong Shang could feel his body getting tired . He had been fighting at full strength for over six hours . Even if he had very high endurance, he wasn't highly skilled, so being exhausted was normal .
"You good?" A handsome blond boy made his way out of a group of devils . He grabbed Qiong Shang's shoulder and leapt .
The two tumbled over the heads of huge masses of devils, landing at the foot of the hill .
"I'm okay, just a little bit tired . " Qiong Shang bent over and gasped, recovering his strength . This blond guy was An Jiu, someone he had met through fighting these devils .
"Be careful . We don't have many people left, but the devil army still has reinforcements…" An Jiu warned him .
"Yeah . " Qiong Shang lifted his head, glancing backward at the valleys behind him . Among the red valleys, groups of people wearing yellow and black were trying to block the devils attempting to enter .
All they were fighting were the devils that made their way through the people in front . The actually strong high-level devils were blocked by the three sects in front .
"Those are the strong fighters from the three sects . I just heard Elder Liu say that they killed a few Devil commanders, but some strong people also died . It's very tragic," An Jiu sighed .
Qiong Shang looked there . He could see that yellow and black people were like a dam at the valley entrance, blocking the black waves outside of the valley . Dead bodies and broken limbs piled into mountains in front of the entrance .
Beams of white and golden light shot and burst, dissipating along the black smoke and flames .
"Commander Zhou from the Yinfu army just gave an order . We only need to guard this area for one more hour . After one hour, we will get reinforcements," An Jiu whispered .
"One hour?" As a prince, Qiong Shang had gone through basic training . He looked around at the men around him, smiling bitterly . Including him, there were only twelve people . For twelve people to guard this flat ground, it would be a miracle if they could even last fifteen minutes .
There were at least hundreds of devils trying to clamber up to this plateau and kill all of them one by one .
Screams like dogs barking and cows mooing filled the area . It made it impossible to calm down .
Qiong Shang smiled bitterly, and felt the bump between his chest and stomach .
That was where the legendary Ten-Thousand Transformation Divine Weapon was . It was also the reason he was chased out of the royal family and put to blame for everything .
Right before he left, monastery master Tian He had explained the current situation to him . Qiong Shang also understood who his actual friends were, and who would try to kill him at any given opportunity .
"Why are you hesitating… Are you afraid that Li Shunxi tricked you?" A calm, young man's voice appeared in his head . "Or do you think that the person he pointed to you is fishy?"
"Neither . I'm just thinking that if I just died here… maybe it would be a good thing . Everything will be over . My sister's death, my mother's death, those who wronged me… I won't have to worry about anything anymore . " Qiong Shang closed his eyes . "I'm so tired…"
"Since you still don't believe me . . . then do you remember what Li Shunxi told you?" the voice continued . "Before becoming strong and having the power to protect yourself, you must find every possible way to borrow power and strength . Having me is both unfortunate and fortunate . Everyone has the right to be tired except for you . "
"I know… I'm just worried… will that person really help us?" Qiong Shang laughed bitterly .
"Who knows . But Li Shunxi already said so, so this is your only hope . He was friends with your mother—he should help someone on the brink of death," the man said calmly .
"Uncle Ten-Thousand Transformation… If he became greedy…"
"Then we can both die," the man responded as if he didn't care about his own death . He was precisely the Ten-Thousand Transformation Divine Weapon, the legendary top-notch Divine Weapon that supposedly surpassed the Divine Intellect level . To a Weapon Master, he had frightening strength, almost comparable with the Divine Lord level . To a Divine Lord, his strength was great enough that there was experimental value in it .
He was worth something even to a Weapon Grandmaster .
But the person he picked was Qiong Shang, an ordinary, extremely weak prince .
"Okay, send the signal . Stop wasting our time," Ten-Thousand Transformation urged him .
Resigned, Qiong Shang found an excuse, left An Jiu, and went back into the brawl . But while killing the devils, a small black jade appeared in his hand .
A black glow lit faintly on it . There seemed to be a crow on it, with its beak at its chests, its red irises glowing creepily .
Qiong Shang made a path through the devils, getting further and further from the little hill . At the end of the devil-infested area, he slipped into a dark little forest .
He quickly took out the jade, bit his finger, and let a drop of blood fall onto it .
"Hiss…"
The blood turned into black smoke instantly and rose up, disappearing into the air .
Not long after, a faint black shadow flew toward them at great speed .
"Whoosh!"
The black shadow stopped right in front of Qiong Shang, transforming into a delicate, pretty little girl .
The girl was wearing a black silk dress tied at her waist, with pearls and shells hung all over it . Her long hair was loose, her eyes bright like stars, and her pale skin seemed to be even more glowing and pure under the contrast of her black dress .
"What the heck? It's a pig!" The girl's expectant gaze turned to disappointment after she saw the person in front of her .
"I thought Father wanted me to come pick up some important person, but it's just a human pig . Ugh!"
Qiong Shang finally noticed the two curvy horns growing out of the young girl's head, shaped like those of a ram . Obviously, she wasn't human, but a demon .
"I… I…" He tried to talk in embarrassment, but he wasn't fluent in the Demon language, and under the disdainful look of the girl, he got even more nervous, and couldn't even get a sentence out .
"He also stutters! Is this funny? For a stuttering pig, Father made me come myself despite knowing this could destroy Grandfather's grand plan?!" The girl gave Qiong Shang a furious slap across his face .
"Slap!"
