Gate of God

With the intense pain caused by his severed arm, the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race clenched his other fist tight and was determined to inflict his pain on Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian.

Step by step, he walked towards the Fang Houde, Qin Xuelian and Little Radish.

He did not move too quickly but was enough for Little Radish to sense something was wrong. He freed himself from Qin Xuelian’s arms.

“Villain, do not come over!” Little Radish raised his arms in front of Qin Xuelian and looked a little scared.

“Xuelian, hurry and leave with Little Radish. I will stay and block this villain!” Fang Houde also noticed that the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race was moving towards them. He hid his knife behind his back, clenched his teeth and stood in front of Little Radish and Qin Xuelian.

“Hmph.” The Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race snorted coldly as he sped up with a smirk on his face and reached Fang Houde’s position in a flash.

Upon seeing this, Qing Yi’s expression changed drastically. On her blood-covered face was an extremely unwilling and desperate expression.

“No!!!” Qing Yi wanted to rescue Fang Houde but the more anxious she was, the more flaws she exposed. Almost immediately, two spears stabbed her thigh at the same time.

The intense pain caused Qing Yi to collapse to the ground. However, this time round, she did not resist with her fist. Instead, she stared deadly at the sabre in the Vice Domain Chief’s hand.

He raised his sabre.

With a eye-blinding radiance and an intense wave of heat, the red flames that were burning made sizzling sounds in the surrounding air.

“Evil demon, I will kill you!” Looking at the sabre that was ablaze with flames, Fang Houde was definitely a little afraid.

However, that did not prevent him from attacking because he needed to protect his wife and the child behind him.

As a man, how could he back away at this point in time?

Even though he knew that he was doomed, even though he knew that it would make no difference if he attacked or not, he still attacked with his knife.

With an extremely fast speed, he stabbed at the heart area of the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race.

However, the cruel reality proved that the disparity between the Rebirth State and the ordinary villager was too big that there was no suitable word to describe it.

A beam of light flashed past the body of the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race. Fang Houde lost his grip on his knife and it fell onto the ground.

Clang!

Fang Houde’s eyes were bloodshot. He took a look at the knife on the ground and then towards the sabre on flames on top of his head.

Misery, despair.

“Even if I stood here, you won’t be able to hurt me. How do you feel? Despair? Haha…” The Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race laughed evilly. “Alright, your life is ending now. However, not to worry, your wife will accompany you soon after!”

The Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race tightened his grip on his sabre and took a look at Qing Yi who was surrounded by soldiers behind him. Then, he shouted coldly, “Die!”

“Yo!” At this moment, a beastly howl resounded in the air. It was a sound that penetrated the Cang Ling Mountain and the eight villages around it.

…

Three miles away from the Northern Mountain Village, Fang Zhengzhi stood rooted to the ground. He heard a beastly roar that came from somewhere so close to him that it was as though it sounded beside him.

“Beast? Why are there beasts?! Who… who is it?! Northern Mountain Village, it’s coming from the Northern Mountain Village…” Fang Zhengzhi was stunned for a moment. Then, his expression changed and his eyes turned as red as blood instantly. “Dad… Mom!”

…

北山村中.

In the Northern Mountain Village, the Vice Domain Chief’s sabre stopped quietly at a spot one inch away from Fang Houde’s head with red flames still billowing.

Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

In the dead silence, the Vice Domain Chief, Demon soldiers, the villagers and Qing Yi raised their heads and looked into the sky.

Above them were three enormous figures that had their wings spread wide apart as thought they were about to block the entire sky.

It was three beasts that were glowing with golden light.

Each of the beasts had thick white scales on their stomach, while their back was covered with golden feathers that glowed with light.

It was evident that these golden feathers were extraordinary. They extended all the way from the back of the beasts to their tails and finally ended with two long tail feathers.

The Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast!

The king of the Fowl, they could travel a thousand miles with a flap of their wings.

Although the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast was categorized as a beast, each of them were nearly as powerful as the Monster Kings. It was extremely rare to find them in the world as rumors had it that the total number of Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast in the world was less than five.

But there were three enormous Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast in the sky above the Northern Mountain Village. How was this not shocking?

That was not the main point.

The main point was that there were three figures standing on the backs of the three Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast. This was extremely unimaginable as the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast, apart from being nearly as powerful as the Monster Kings, they were also extremely hard to tame. Nobody in history, including the leader of the Five Sects of the Holy Region, had managed to tame the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast.

“All to retreat to Blood Shadow City.” A emotionless voice was heard from the back of the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast. Although it sounded very calm, there was a hint of majesty that caused one to be afraid to not follow the order.

“All… all to retreat… what does this mean?!” The Vice Domain Chief’s expression changed as he looked at the figure shrouded by a black cloak standing on the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast. He was unable to react for a moment.

Actually, he was unable to figure out the identity of the three figures. If the sharp beastly howl had originated from the outskirts of the village, he would not have stopped his attack. However, the sound came from the direction of the Cang Ling Mountain.

Furthermore, when the beastly howl was heard, three enormous Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast had dashed up to the skies from the Cang Ling Mountain and ended up above him.

It happened too quickly such that even as a person who was composed, he was stunned and have yet to regain his senses.

However, that was no longer important.

That was because when the sound was heard, three figures had leaped from the back of the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beast and landed right in front of him.

The sky was left with the last ray of the setting sun.

The golden light shone over the three figures and coated their black cloaks with a layer of light that looked like a gold muslin.

Meanwhile, the cloak covering the head of the figure standing at the most front fell gradually, showing a face with the beauty that could overthrow states and cities.

Under her arched eyebrows were two sparkling eyes that were like fluid.

It was a face that was so beautiful that it made people suffocate. Although there was not much expression on her face, her appearance still made one’s heart tremble till the point that one could not breathe.

The Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race was stunned.

He could not figure out who were on the back of the Golden-feathered Phoenix Beasts, but now that the black cloak has fallen, how could he not possible recognize the figure standing in front of him?

Yun Qingwu!

Demon Young Lord Yun Qingwu!

Instantly, the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race collapsed to the ground and started perspiring profusely.

Yun Qingwu did not bother about him. She looked at Fang Houde, Qin Xuelian, then Little Radish.

“So brave of you at such a young age. Do you mind telling big sister what is your name?” Yun Qingwu looked at the clenched fist of Little Radish and smiled involuntarily.

“Are you… a villain?” Seeing the smile on Yun Qingwu’s face, Little Radish’s stubborn expression became more relaxed.

“Villain? Hmm, regarding this question… I don’t know too. Do you think I look like a villain?” Yun Qingwu asked back.

“You are not a villain!” Little Radish affirmed.

“Oh? Why do you think so?” Yun Qingwu was slightly shocked.

“Because you are different from them. They have a Demon Eye on their foreheads but you don’t, hence you should be a good person like us!” Little Radish said again.

“No Demon Eye?” Yun Qingwu seemed to be deep in thought.

“You are not a villain, then… are you here to save us? Did Brother Zhengzhi ask you to come? Why isn’t he back?”

“Little Radish, stop talking!” Qin Xuelian took a look at the perspiration on the face of the Vice Domain Chief of the Demon Race, then at the expressions of the surrounding Demon soldiers and quickly pulled Little Radish back to her.

“So your name is Little Radish? Hmm, an easy name to remember.” Yun Qingwu heard Qin Xuelian’s words and nodded her head lightly. Then, she blinked at Little Radish and turned to Qin Xuelian and Fang Houde. “Auntie Qin, Uncle Fang, nice to meet you, I am Yun Qingwu.”

“Yun… Yun Qingwu?! You… You are Yun Qingwu? Zheng’er mentioned about you before, aren’t you a de… de…” Qin Xuelian’s expression changed drastically after hearing Yun Qingwu’s words. She took a step back involuntarily with an extremely shocked expression on her face.

“Fang Zhengzhi mentioned about me before? He is…”

“Greetings, Young Lord!”

Before Yun Qingwu could finish her sentence, the surrounding Demon soldiers had reacted from their shock and knelt down instantaneously.

This was a shocking scene for Fang Houde, Qing Yi and the villagers of the Northern Mountain Village.

“Young lord?!”

“She is the Young Lord of the Demon Race!”

“Evil demon, she… she is the actual evil demon!”

“Ah… I am going to kill you, evil demon. You are the one who invaded the land of Great Xia. Evil demon, I am going to kill you!”

The villagers were shocked and began to yell.

However, it was impossible for them to approach Yun Qingwu. When one of the villagers charged towards her, the Demon soldiers kneeling nearby stood up, tripped the villager, pressed him down using his feet and was about to aim his spear at his throat.

“Stop it!” Yun Qingwu shouted.

The spear stopped at a spot that was an inch away from the villager’s throat. The chilling light caused immense pain to the villager’s throat and he became extremely pale.

However, this could not stop the villager from giving his last yell.

“Evil demons, you evil demons, kill me now. I am not afraid to die, even if I die, I will fight till my death with you evil demons, I will fight it out with you!”

“Fight, fight it out with them!”

“They are all evil demons!”

As the villager gave his last yell, the other villagers were also extremely triggered. After all, the words ‘Demon Young Lord Yun Qingwu’ were enough to make them lose control and give their last struggles in desperation.

The villagers stood up in fury. Regardless of whether they were injured, they held on and picked up the weapons on the ground.

Of course, the Demon soldiers would not allow the villagers to go near Yun Qingwu, even though Yun Qingwu’s attitude was not clear and she was telling them to stop.

Their role was to protect Yun Qingwu, so how would they possibly bother about other factors? They would never allow the villagers to get close to Yun Qingwu.

“How dare you be disrespectful to Young Lord, you are seeking for your own death!”

“A bunch of fussy villagers!”

“Die, all of you!”

The Demon soldiers also whipped out their weapons. To them, it was the biggest crime to be disrespectful to Yun Qingwu. Therefore, they would not possibly show mercy to the villagers.

“Who dares to attack would be dealt with the military law and be beheaded!” Yun Qingwu frowned and exploded with an intangible aura.

Clang! The Demon soldiers stopped their movements.

Even though there was a Sabre that struck down towards them.

Crack!

Crack!

The Sabres struck on the armors of the Demon soldiers, making clanging sounds. A few of the Sabres even penetrated the Demon soldiers’ bodies.

However, none of the Demon soldiers moved.

“I order the entire troop to retreat to Blood Shadow…”

“Yun Qingwu!!!” Before Yun Qingwu could give her order, a roar came from the entrance of the Northern Mountain Village.

Following that, a sharp aura surged over from the entrance of the village. it was a purple stream of light that was like blood, making a faint shadow that lit up the sky. With a speed that was fast enough to tear open the space, it went straight towards Yun Qingwu’s throat.
