Chapter 2348: Betrayed by All, Your Doom Awaits

Behind Pei Kuang and the Qianwang Army, the Overlord Army continued their pursuit relentlessly. They had no way to escape.

Wave after wave of the main force of Qianwang was slaughtered on the ground beneath their feet.

Wave after wave of the main force of Qianwang was captured by Batian.

In just a few days, the troops around Pei Kuang dwindled to a point where they were almost negligible.

After several more days, in a certain mountain forest...

Pei Kuang secretly summoned Lady Li and his younger son Pei Yusheng.

He gulped audibly, gritting his teeth as he said, "Our cause is lost... Madam, now we’ll use others as bait to draw the attention of Little Demon Sikong and Murong Jianyun and others, and we’ll immediately use the Transmission Stone to leave."

"We’ll first return to the Qianwang Holy Tower, retrieve important items, and immediately flee and hide."

Seeing that they had no hope of victory, Pei Kuang planned to escape with Lady Li and Pei Yusheng. Originally, he only intended to take Lady Li with him, but Lady Li could not abandon her son, Pei Yusheng.

So, they had to take both.

"As long as we find the son of Mr. and Mrs. Sikong, we’ll still have a chance for revenge." Pei Kuang, disheveled, said earnestly.

Lady Li, of course, agreed with a heavy nod...

They then, as Pei Kuang planned, used Elder Sheng Wu of Qianwang and the Golden Fierce Battle Dragon to draw the attention of the Overlord Warriors, paying a high price to break open space with the Transmission Stone and leave.

The destination, naturally, was Qianwang Holy City, naturally the Qianwang Golden Light Tower!

Pei Kuang still had many things he needed to take away.

For instance, there was the Evil Charm Holy Body that Jiang Wanyou had confirmed, someone with the Evil Charm Holy Body Bloodline, and with that person, they could create an Evil Charm Holy Body and have a chance.

As long as Pei Kuang reached the Divine Martial Stage, he could rise again.

Thus, the Transmission Stone was activated, and the three of them returned to Qianwang Holy City.

At this time, Qianwang Holy City still had quite a few people, but most of the main forces had long been transferred out. With only the Great Array left and no soldiers to use, they could not withstand the impact from Batian’s side.

Thus, Pei Kuang had no intention to continue fighting.

At that moment, Pei Yusheng suddenly said, "Father, you go gather your things, and I’ll go with Mother to gather ours."

Pei Kuang nodded gently, suspecting nothing.

However, as Pei Kuang left, Pei Yusheng suddenly sneered, quickly saying, "Mother, let’s escape Qianwang Holy City immediately. Pei Kuang is thoroughly rattled; he’s finished."

He called his father by name and continued with a cold laugh, "He has the Transmission Stone; do you think Demon Master Sikong wouldn’t know?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lady Li’s expression froze...

"If I’m not mistaken, Demon Master Sikong and Murong Jianyun are probably waiting for him inside the Golden Light Tower." Pei Yusheng continued, "In the past, Pei Kuang surely would have foreseen these things, but now he truly can’t."

"Even if he manages to escape, he’s of no value to us anymore."

"If we’re not careful, we’ll become his pawns."

Lady Li listened to this, nodding deeply...

Indeed, following Pei Kuang was just to use him to find the whereabouts of Mr. and Mrs. Sikong’s son.

Now that Pei Kuang was utterly finished, the Qianwang Holy Tower was doomed.

What other methods remain to find Mr. and Mrs. Sikong’s son?

Taking a deep breath, Lady Li said, "For now, we can’t run around recklessly; let’s change our clothes and blend in with the ordinary citizens."

Thus, the mother and son avoided Pei Kuang and blended into the ordinary people of Qianwang Holy Tower.

At the same time...

With his mind already in turmoil, Pei Kuang approached his treasure vault. Just when he was about to open it, his entire body trembled violently, shouting in a low voice, "Who’s there, come out!"

Thud, thud, thud...

A figure emerged from the shadows, just as Pei Yusheng had predicted—it was Sikong Jing.

Pei Kuang’s eyes widened instantly, his entire body trembling violently as he exclaimed, "Little Demon Sikong, you, you, you..."

Sikong Jing looked at him, speaking calmly, "Pei Kuang, how did someone as cunning as you make such a grave mistake? I never thought you’d come, yet here you are, so obsessed with the treasure vault of Qianwang Holy Tower."

What he said was the absolute truth...

He thought Pei Kuang wouldn’t transmit back to Qianwang Holy City, and yet Sikong Jing came here to take a gamble.

But Pei Kuang really came, his mind in chaos. The main reason was his obsession with the Evil Charm Holy Body. What he truly wanted to take away was the person who could create the Evil Charm Holy Body.

Thud, thud, thud...

As Sikong Jing spoke, more figures emerged from the darkness.

They were Murong Jianyun, Venerable Ba Lian, Beicang Tianjue, Old Xiu, Old He, Qi Wuji, and Old Fat Head, along with all those who had recently reached the Holy Martial Stage.

Like the Canggu Iron Soldier Soul, like Young Master Ye Wuzhi!

All of them, of course, were transported here by Sikong Jing using the Space Holy Key.

At this moment, Old Xiu spoke coldly, "Pei Kuang, if you had used the Transmission Stone to escape somewhere else, we would have struggled to kill you. But you came back to Qianwang Holy Tower, so we finally have the chance to avenge Elder Su."

Old Xiu’s voice was extremely hoarse at this moment, filled with overflowing hatred.

Clack, clack, clack...

Pei Kuang’s teeth ground fiercely, he looked around these people furiously, feeling the utmost regret.

But then... boom!

"So what if I am at the Fourth Realm of Holy Martial? You won’t find it easy to kill me." In this regard, Pei Kuang was still confident. He dared to return because he had faith in his combat power.

Space Transmission couldn’t transport too many people at once.

Then Pei Kuang roared again, "Madam, come and assist me quickly."

Though confident, he still needed support facing so many, so naturally, he called for Lady Li.

Unfortunately, having hidden within Qianwang Holy City, Lady Li and Pei Yu exchanged a glance and without hesitation, slipped away. Taking advantage of the Overlord Warriors attacking Pei Kuang, they quickly took off.

Without assistance, Pei Kuang continued calling, "Madam, hurry up!"

There was still no response, as Sikong Jing smiled faintly, saying, "Pei Kuang, Lady Li only wanted to use you to find Mr. and Mrs. Sikong’s son. Do you think you still have value now?"

If the Qianwang Holy Tower cannot control the world, how could it find anyone?

With these words, Pei Kuang’s face changed wildly, and he raged, "You heartless bastard, damn it."

"That heartless bitch, don’t let me catch her, or I’ll make sure she dies without a grave."

As soon as he finished, a hidden murderous intent flashed in Pei Kuang’s eyes, and he... boom!

In an instant, he leaped toward Sikong Jing, pretending to be angry as a tactic of surprise.

He intended to capture Sikong Jing as a hostage!

In a moment, he was right in front of Sikong Jing, menacingly saying, "Little Demon Sikong, you’re too cocky."

The true qi of the Fourth Realm of Holy Martial pressed heavily on Sikong Jing.

In the next instant... boom!

A violent sword shadow erupted from Sikong Jing, black sword pillars turned into massive claws, blocking Pei Kuang.

"Pei Kuang, did you really underestimate me?"
