Chapter 2322: A New Birth

Chapter 2322 -2317: A New Birth

Tang Ming nodded, “I’ve received a message from the avatar; the old prophet has returned to the void. He left you with a message.”

Alec was taken aback, then immediately stood up. With a wave of his hand, all the warriors of the Demon Slayer Clan gathered behind him.

“The prophet’s last instruction.”

Broken Horn Alec said only four words, and with a rustling sound, all the warriors of the Demon Slayer Clan knelt down.

“I will return quickly, don’t worry. With West Continent City here, on the day of calamity, there will be no calamity.”

Tang Ming’s voice was not loud, yet it made the warriors of the Demon Slayer Clan burst into tears.

Previously, due to the prophet’s last instruction, no one dared to be disrespectful. Now, these brave warriors were able to release their inner grief.

Tang Ming first sighed deeply, “Everyone, the battle is over, the prophet will not be far from us. In two years, the new prophet will return to us. And each of you will once again guard the prophet. Brave warriors, go back and send off the prophet on his last journey.”

“Thank you, City Lord Tang Ming, and thank you, West Continent City.”

Broken Horn Alec grabbed Tang Ming’s hand. After a long while, he exhaled and said, “Actually, the power of the plane no longer chooses heirs within the Demon Slayer Clan. The prophet was merely a child of ordinary Ascenders. Back then, I found him first according to the prophecy of the previous prophet, and became his guardian. After all, a child born into an ordinary family, blind and unable to cultivate, is likely to be abandoned directly.”

Alec’s words made Tang Ming’s eyes narrow, then he said, “I understand now, I will look out for all the children born recently in West Continent City.”

Broken Horn Alec left with his people.

Tang Ming’s avatar directly convened a meeting at the City Lord Mansion, but Guo Cunhou did not attend the start of the meeting.

“What’s going on, why didn’t Steward Guo come.”

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on Zhou Mo beside him.

Zhou Mo smiled, then said, “Mrs. Guo is giving birth today, Steward Guo went to see the child.”

Tang Ming was stunned, his eyebrows raised. Such a coincidence? But, the child born to the Guo Family shouldn’t be related to the prophet, right?

Tang Ming shook his head, then mentioned the burial of the prophet and the rebirth of the prophet.

Zhou Mo nodded, then said, “I will inform Steward Guo about this matter. As for the burial, I think Miss Yingmeisi should be able to take care of it, right.”

Nuoke Yingmeisi nodded, then said, “Rest assured, the prophet’s funeral must conform to the Demon Slayer Clan’s customs. Our clan has its own rituals. When Lord Broken Horn Alec and the others return, we will hold a funeral for the old prophet.”

Tang Ming nodded, then his gaze fell on Zhou Mo beside him, “Prepare a carriage. I want to go to the medical hall to visit Mrs. Guo.”

Guo Cunhou’s wife was not at home, but at the medical hall, which is now considered one of the top buildings in West Continent City.

Across three courtyards, eight stories high, with stationed guards at the entrance, the interior is filled with recently recruited Elixir Cultivators.

When Tang Ming followed Zhou Mo over, Guo Cunhou was standing at the hospital’s entrance waiting for Tang Ming.

“Steward Guo, when your wife needs someone to care for her, why are you outside.”

Tang Ming stepped off the carriage, looked at Guo Cunhou, and asked.

Guo Cunhou smiled, then said, “It’s not urgent for my wife’s matter. City Lord, you’re here to see the new prophet, aren’t you.”

“Oh, so the child was really born to your family.”

Tang Ming was understandably shocked.

Zhou Mo who stood beside Tang Ming was also surprised with his mouth agape.

“The old prophet spoke with me about this matter before. I thought over it and felt his kind of inheritance was too risky. I asked him if he could designate a pregnant woman, letting her child become his avatar.”

Guo Cunhou paused when speaking, after a while he smiled again and said, “He told me that was indeed a way, but who would want their flesh and blood to disappear, and become an immortal old monster.”

Tang Ming narrowed his eyes, staring at Guo Cunhou. Guo Cunhou laughed, “I told him, the people of the Demon Slayer Clan would definitely agree. But unfortunately, the backup pregnant woman from the Demon Slayer Clan didn’t make it in time, so it fell to my wife. However, unexpectedly, my wife was consistently checked as expecting one child. Yet, during childbirth, she gave birth to twins.”

“So that’s how it is. This means if a pregnant woman is designated, the prophet’s birth won’t affect the child in the womb.”

Tang Ming’s face showed a faint smile.

The fall of the old prophet was not particularly saddening, especially after knowing the new prophet’s identity.

“That’s right, the prophet is inside. Naturally unable to cultivate immortal power, without pupils, sitting there quietly. When I approached, he even pulled my hand and smiled at me.”

Guo Cunhou nodded, then said.

“Let’s go, let’s check it out.”

Tang Ming and Zhou Mo exchanged a glance, then said.

Yingmeisi was extremely busy after the old prophet’s fall. To the Demon Slayer Clan, the prophet was a very important existence.

Before the old prophet’s fall, he would leave many words, all concerning searching for the new prophet. But once the new prophet was not found before returning to the void, it would cause great trouble in finding the new prophet, even causing panic within the Demon Slayer Clan.

Barton Yingmeisi, as the current queen of the Demon Slayer Clan, managed the entire Demon Slayer Clan. She knew well, the old prophet had told her, his next holder would appear in West Continent City.

Because of this matter, Yingmeisi specifically visited the medical hall’s Hall Master Guo Muye and West Continent City’s Grand Steward Guo Cunhou.

However, the prophet has been voided for more than two hours and still no news of the new prophet has arrived.

The Demon Slayer Clan members were familiar with the situation of temporarily having no prophet, yet she still wanted to bring a surprise to the clan members amid the sadness of the old prophet’s fall.

“Elder Yingmeisi, the City Lord wants you to go to the medical hall.”

A guard ran in from outside.

After listening to the guard’s words, Yingmeisi was first stunned, then stood up and walked outside directly, “Let’s go, speak while walking.”

“Yes, Elder Yingmeisi, the City Lord asked me to tell you not to be sad, the new prophet has already been born. He is right now accompanying the new prophet.”

As soon as the guard’s words fell, Barton Yingmeisi suddenly had a gust of wind beneath her feet, and her whole body was swept by the wind towards the medical hall.

There are rules in West Continent City, unless in extremely urgent matters, the use of immortal techniques is not permitted.

Yet Barton Yingmeisi was clearly too eager to wait.
