Chapter 5856: The Strongest Swordsman of the Human Race!
“Affirmative!” Li Sheng’s face brightened as he immediately rushed towards Jian Wushuang. Jian Wushuang deliberately feigned weakness, not allowing more people to join their battle group.
Sabo faced off against Jiada, two Fifth Tribulation realm powerhouses, each with over 700,000 divine power.
Wu Li suggested they all attack together.
Jian Wushuang decided to turn around halfway and deal with those at the Fourth Tribulation realm.
He let Jiada handle Sabo alone.
Jian Wushuang didn’t mind.
Upon approaching, he found that Sabo’s strength was just so-so.
Slightly stronger than Jiada, but not by much.
It wouldn’t be too late to help after Wu Li dealt with those at the Fourth Tribulation realm.
Meanwhile, Jian Wushuang chatted with Li Sheng.
Though he did not hold back, his actions were just to coordinate.
From Li Sheng, he also understood Gula’s intentions.
It coincided perfectly with the group task issued by the Ancient Wood Sect.
Both tasks involved collecting Dragon Balls.
At this rate, the human race team would sooner or later confront Gula.
With this in mind, Jian Wushuang’s heart sank.
He hadn’t thought about this before.
Fost Demon Clan.
One million divine powers.
And he hadn’t even transformed yet.
Cooperation probably had little hope.
However, Human Race powerhouses could join forces with the Polunga Clan’s powerhouses to deal with Gula.
It was a good choice.
“The Holy Land must be visited!” Jian Wushuang shared his thoughts with Li Sheng.
He made it clear to him the importance of this mission.
If they succeeded, the candidacy of the Empress’s Holy Maiden would be secured. The inner trials were crucial.
The core area was basically a matter of charging in with strength.
They must seize this opportunity now.
Li Sheng nodded in agreement, highly approving.
At the same time, he admired Jian Wushuang’s loyalty.
Despite being abandoned by the Empress, he remained so faithful.
Protecting Jinchen goes without saying; they were originally husband and wife, naturally, they had to protect each other.
Now that his wife was dead, Jian Wushuang remained so loyal.
He could practically have a temple built for him.
Jian Wushuang himself thought so too.
He claimed it was for the Wanliu Divine Wood, but there was no need to risk it so much!
That time, he had staked his life.
If they succeeded this time, it wouldn’t be excessive for the Empress to come and kowtow to him.
After the Empress became the Holy Maiden, she would have to worship him.
But thinking about following Wu Li to sneak into the Wanyan, there would be quite a mess later.
Consider it balancing things out!
The two fought effortlessly.
Wu Li was in high spirits, ready for the slaughter.
With each swing of his sword, another head rolled, staining the sky crimson.
“Let these people witness the power of the first sword of the human race!” Wu Li held his wooden sword firmly, taking a deep breath.
A green breath escaped his lips, infusing the wooden sword with an intense energy, its blade glowing with newfound power.
The remaining three Fourth Tribulation experts exchanged glances, no longer daring to approach.
They hadn’t anticipated the overwhelming strength of the human Fourth Tribulation realm before them, comparable even to Fifth Tribulation realm experts.
“Bring it on!”
Wu Li smiled, shouting, “Come at me!”
Cutting down these Fourth Tribulation realm savage beasts was like cutting through dry
grass.
Instantly, they fell.
Clang!
Sheathing his wooden sword, he imitated Jian Wushuang, carrying it on his back, adopting the stance of a master. He turned to Jian Wushuang and asked calmly, “Do you need my help?”
Li Sheng was astonished. He had not expected Wu Li, who had once been so submissive in the Yue Kingdom, to become this powerful.
This return to the Yue Kingdom might very well see the Li family’s position replaced by the
Wu family.
For a moment, he was not satisfied with his own divine power.
He thought about gaining some benefits from this group task.
While others had made breakthroughs, he needed to as well.
Fifth Tribulation realm.
It wasn’t impossible.
Moreover, he had helped Jian Wushuang so much this time; he had to get some benefits first.
He would rely on him in the future!
For example, treasures like the primordial stones.
He had been envious when Jian Wushuang casually took tens of thousands of primordial
stones.
“Wushuang, your plan is perfect, but my current strength is too weak, I’m afraid…”
Before he could finish, Jian Wushuang understood his meaning.
With a wave of his hand, he sent a palm containing a staggering 500,000 primordial stones
into Li Sheng’s body.
“Oh, Wushuang, that’s not what I meant!” Li Sheng wanted to be polite, but when he saw the amount, he trembled and said, “Wushuang, you’ve given me a huge surprise today!”
500,000 primordial stones, it was difficult for a Five Tribulations realm expert to produce so
many.
For Li Sheng, even with the luck on his side during this holy meeting, it would be challenging
to obtain treasures of equivalent value.
Indeed, he had been given a tremendous advantage.
He had already gathered some of the treasures needed for the Fifth Tribulation.
What he lacked was primordial stones.
This time, he might have a chance to break through and become a Fifth Tribulation expert.
Once successful,
he could firmly claim the title of the top family in Yue Kingdom.
No matter how many future generations died, it wouldn’t matter.
There was plenty of time in the Fifth Tribulation realm.
He had enough time to cultivate even stronger successors.
And once the plan succeeded,
Jian Wushuang would take the credit.
Then, he would be second in merit.
By then, his name would shake the Ancient Wood Continent.
Those strongmen in the secret realms might not remember his kindness.
But the strongmen of the Sixteen Nations of Qingchao would definitely remember him, ‘Li
Sheng’!
The opportunity for fame was right in front of him.
500,000 primordial stones, Jian Wushuang didn’t care much about them.
If given, then so be it.
Compared to entering Wanliu, it was insignificant.
It wasn’t even worth a hair.
He glanced at Wu Li and said, “Don’t worry about me, go help Senior Jiada!”
Although he said this on the surface, he secretly transmitted to Wu Li not to go too far.
Later, Sabo would have to take Li Sheng away.
If Sabo was killed, Li Sheng would be in trouble.
If even a Fifth Tribulation expert fell, returning as a Fourth Tribulation expert wouldn’t be
good.
One mustn’t lose sight of the bigger picture.
Making Gula suspect Li Sheng.
Unfortunately, this time he overthought it.
Wu Li had just gone to help Jiada.
Sabo exploded.
His body directly expanded, his appearance changed from handsome to ugly, but his divine
power increased by 70,000 to 80,000.
Now Sabo had 800,000 divine power.
Just like the Whale Shark King back then.
Another Fifth Tribulation expert at the limit.
This time, Wu Li didn’t need to pretend to be Jiada.
Both of them couldn’t stop Sabo even if they exerted all their strength.
Jian Wushuang also understood that it was time to escape.
But he could only take two people at most.
And Jiada seemed to have no intention of leaving.
“Benefactor, take Danbao and go quickly, we’ll hold them off!” Jiada’s arms were broken,
blood continuously flowing from his mouth, extremely embarrassed, yet he still worried about Danbao’s safety.
Wu Li cursed inwardly and quickly transmitted to Jian Wushuang, “Don’t listen to him, take
me away quickly, I really can’t hold him back.”
“Don’t worry!” Jian Wushuang leisurely transmitted.
Sabot, who had the upper hand, said, “None of you can escape. Li Sheng, my friend, delay them for me, and I can deal with these two in three breaths!”
