Chapter 405: Hating You?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The soul fragment was dumbstruck.
He was rather bewildered.
Even if Jiang He had overwhelmed two True Immortals and multiple Heavenly Immortals all by himself and displayed his frightening combat ability, the Immortal Fox had been surprised and fearful… but not this bewildered.
Twenty?
Don’t you mean over two hundred?
Could he have heard it wrong?
At the moment, his remnant soul was shaped like an ethereal white fox with five tails, and it was leveling its eyes doubtfully at Jiang He. “Brother, you have cultivated to full-fledged Heavenly Immortal and condensed 108 Heavenly Immortal Dao, yet boast combat ability that could match Golden Immortals. How unbelievable—even the unparalleled prodigies fighting at the celestial battlefield are no match for you!”
“Eh?”
Jiang He shot him a glare and raised a palm, but then lowered it and coolly said, “I would have given you a thorough beating if you weren’t a soul fragment and a single slap would kill you. I told you I’m just twenty, and yet you had to distort it. Did you really think I won’t kill you?”
However, he suddenly found his wording rather crude just then—he was already full-fledged Heavenly Immortal, why was he being so vulgar?
He hence shook his head and said, “Forget it. Why should I keep talking with trash like you? Soul search, Hu Mei!”
“No, no, no!”
The Immortal Daemon Fox’s soul fragment promptly shrieked, “Don’t search me, I’ll talk! I’ll talk!”
“We, the Green Hill Foxes, count as a faction even in the celestial battlefield. Two Grand Luo watches over us, along with thirteen Golden Immortals—two of whom are handmaidens of Mistress Nüwa.”
“As for the other immortals from other sects returning to the homeworld, they are now taking a break and preparing at the Horned Dragon Star in the Three Coves Quadrant, and would only return after a while.”
“By the way, my clan also has one innate soul treasure and multiple acquired soul treasure. That bell you took was called the Primordial Bell, which our clan’s Grand Luo found at the celestial battlefield.”
“The clan elder who died by your hands just now, who was one of the clan’s thirteen Golden Immortals, was named…”
Jiang He was left gaping.
What the hell.
Was this True Immortal Fox that much of a coward?
There was a lot of information that he did not think of asking, but the Immortal Fox was blabbing it all out. In fact, he only stopped after several minutes and gave Jiang He a look that was clearly seeking his good graces.
“How do I know you weren’t lying?”
“Hu Mei, search…”
Even before Jiang He finished, the soul fragment exclaimed, “Don’t worry, Brother! All I say is true, and I swear by the lives of the Grand Luo in my clan that there was no deceit on my part.”
Jiang He was dumbstruck.
Gasp!
He inhaled sharply and stared at the soul fragment in surprise…
Impressive!
This one was truly ruthless!
An idea occurred to him then, and he took out a shinning collar, saying, “You may live. Wear this!”
“Spirit Animal Ring?”
The soul fragment abruptly shuddered.
The bright collar was indeed the Spirit Animal Ring, which Jiang He had obtained from the nine factions that fought him.
He had another Spirit Animal Ring that he planted from the Mysterious Seed, although that one was quite mysterious since it could capture any daemon with a weaker psyche than his. Therefore, Jiang He had decided to save it so that he could capture a divine beast as a pet.
As for the soul fragment of a True Immortal Fox, a normal Spirit Animal Ring would suffice.
A struggling expression flashed over the face of the soul fragment then.
He knew very well the function of Spirit Animal Rings, and that his life was completely out of his control once he wore it. When the time comes, the master of the ring could kill him with just a thought, even if they were in a distant planetary system.
However…
He was even surer that he would die immediately if he did not put on the Spirit Animal Ring.
He hence sprawled out over Jiang He’s palm, kowtowing as he said, “I will put the Spirit Animal Ring on! Do spare my life, my lord.”
Whirl!
Once Jiang He invoked the Spirit Animal Ring, it promptly turned into a spark that slipped into the soul fragment, and Jiang He soon fully controlled it since the soul fragment did not put up a resistance.
At that very moment, a curious sensation came to Jiang He’s mind.
If he willed it, the Daemon Fox’s thoughts would not escape his senses.
Likewise, if he willed it, the Daemon Fox’s psyche would be destroyed and he would be totally dead.
“Master!”
The soul fragment kowtowed at Jiang He again, and even appeared much more reverent this time. “Master, about what I told you before… there are actually three Grand Luos among us Green Hill Foxes, though the other one is engaged at the celestial battlefield and can’t leave easily.”
“As for Golden Immortals, there were actually twenty-three—twenty-two now, I guess. As I’ve mentioned before, two were serving as Mistress Nüwa’s handmaidens and eleven remained with the sect, while the other ten are engaged in the celestial battlefield as well.”
Jiang He was dumbstruck.
What the hell!
Though he had thought that this Immortal Fox was ruthless enough to swear on the lives of the Grand Luo in his clan, it seems… he was far more ruthless than Jiang He gave him credit for.
Jiang He hence questioned him again.
However, the information about the other sects were true.
“By the way, about the Unbounded Demon Sect, Penglai Sect, Thousand Cavern Island, Melodic Sect, Blood Cloud Sect, Joy Valley…”
Jiang He named the ten factions including the Penglai Sect, and asked, “What are the power levels of the returning immortals from those sects?”
“No immortal from the Thousand Cavern Island would return. That faction was merely once an alliance of untitled cultivators with no cohesion, and their elites joined other faction once they reached the celestial battlefield. As for the Melodic Sect and the Blood Cloud Sect… all their immortals must have fallen at the celestial battlefield.”
“Though there were returning immortals from the Melodic Sect, they are merely two True Immortals and nine Heavenly Immortals. Their sect had run into an ancient champion around eight hundred years ago and suffered serious casualties, and is only left with a single Golden Immortal.”
“That said, the Blood Demon Sect did manage to connect themselves with someone from the Blood Sea, and their sect is incredibly powerful now… they had three Golden Immortals, nine True Immortals and over seventy Heavenly Immortals returning to the homeworld.”
“Likewise, there are Golden Immortals from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the Taixu Sect, and the Horned Dragons clan returning as well.”
“So many?”
Gasp!
Jiang He could not help inhaling sharply and exclaimed in shock, “I would never win against so many elites if they join hands against me… right now, I would have to take the initiative in attack, and set up an ambush near Mars or charge into Horned Dragon Star, first blindsiding a few, before slowly contending with the others and coming up with an idea to deal with the others.”
The Daemon Fox’s soul fragment appeared surprised and asked, “Does those factions hate you, my lord?”
“They do!”
Jiang He said seriously. “Let’s take the Penglai Sect for example—even if they didn’t know me, they would definitely try to kill me later. The same goes for the immortals of the Unbounded Demon Sect and the Blood Demon Sect, so instead of letting them kill me, why shouldn’t I attack first and kill them instead?!”
The Daemon Fox’s soul fragment was dumbstruck.
He was cursing inwardly even if he had sworn allegiance to Jiang He now.
What the heck?
That counts as ‘having a grudge’ against you?
How could they when they don’t even know who you were?
