Berserk God of War

Chapter 698: Chapter 698: Beast Arm, Challenging Extraordinary Realm

At the same time, Lu Lungan’s army appeared silently outside the Northern Mountains in the northeastern part of the War Soul Dynasty.

This area was already close to the boundary of the Long Night Empire.

During this period, Lu Lungan had been severely criticized.

At the same time, many ministers had submitted memorials calling for his removal from the post of Marshal, which made Lu Lungan resolute in his decision to enter the Northern Mountains to intercept Sikong Jing and had even made meticulous arrangements for this purpose.

However, by his side was now a young man... it was the Fifth Prince, Lu Chi.

”Marshal Uncle Lu, we must kill Sikong Jing this time, no matter what. We absolutely cannot let him return to the Long Night Empire.”

A faint smile appeared on Lu Chi’s face.

He was the supervisor, sent by his imperial father, to oversee whether Lu Lungan was fulfilling his duties wholeheartedly.

In other words, the order to intercept Sikong Jing still came directly from the War Soul Emperor himself, but deep down, Lu Lungan was displeased, as if his Emperor brother still doubted his loyalty...

Although that bastard Sikong Jing of Dark Wings has beaten me badly, I am fiercely loyal.

And just as Lu Lungan was about to enter the Northern Mountains, suddenly, a graceful figure riding a mount appeared.

The figure was none other than the Moon Soul Fairy, Gongyang Ying.

She was travel-worn and upon arrival, she immediately said, ”Marshal Lu, my grandfather said you must not enter the Northern Mountains. Great danger lies there.”

At her words, Lu Lungan was stunned, and hesitation flashed in his eyes.

However, the Fifth Prince Lu Chi by his side let out a cold snort and stepped forward.

”Gongyang Ying, you’ve arrived quite promptly.”

”But intercepting Sikong Jing is imperative this time. Your State Preceptor grandfather actually wants to stop us... Does he have an Emperor’s Order?”

Following that, the various ministers who had accompanied Lu Chi also spoke up in turn.

They questioned and doubted in every way.

Gongyang Ying was stupefied and discomfort showed on the face beneath her veil.

In the past, which of them was not warm and gentle towards her? Now, all of them wore cold expressions.

This made Gongyang Ying realize how cruel reality could be, and a self-mocking smile appeared on her face as she insisted firmly, ”There is no Emperor’s Order, but when my grandfather says there is danger, then there is grave danger.”

In the next instant, Lu Chi and the supervising ministers revealed a sneer.

”We’re sorry, but we do not believe the words of the State Preceptor without an Emperor’s Order.”

”Right, we do not believe...”

”Marshal Lu, deploy the troops immediately, or it will raise suspicions.”

One voice after another exacerbated the frustration that Lu Lungan was already feeling, making him extremely irritable.

He looked at Lu Chi and then at Gongyang Ying, and suddenly clenched his teeth and roared, ”To hell with it, I believe the State Preceptor!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the place went silent.

The next moment, a smile appeared on Lu Chi’s face, and a cold light flickered in his eyes.

Suddenly, he took a step forward and decreed, ”By the Emperor’s Order, Lu Lungan shows cowardice in the face of the enemy and is suspected of colluding with Long Night Sikong Jing. He is to be arrested and taken into custody immediately. The mission to intercept will be led by myself, the Fifth Prince Lu Chi... as the commander of the campaign.”

His voice thundered out, and as soon as the Emperor’s Order was issued, people pounced on Lu Lungan and directly removed his Marshal armor.

Finally, Lu Chi left some soldiers behind to guard Lu Lungan and donned the Marshal’s armor to campaign against the Northern Mountains, while laughing coldly, ”Uncle, I’m afraid you’ll have to suffer the inconvenience of waiting here for my triumphant return.”

”Haha, I’ll take Sikong Jing’s head,” proclaimed the Prince.

After laughing heartily three times, Lu Chi led a million-strong army into the Northern Mountains, accompanied by the laughter of those around him.

Left behind, Lu Lungan, dressed in simple clothes, had an icy expression and gnashed his teeth in fury!

Then, he slowly turned to Gongyang Ying and said, ”Ying’er, it seems that your grandfather is about to end up in the same position as I did.”

He had been relieved of his position as Marshal, and the next person the Emperor’s brother was likely to target was the Imperial Advisor.

Gongyang Ying flicked her hair back and responded indifferently, ”Commander Lu, rest assured, you will soon be able to regain your position as Marshal.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Lungan was stunned, not understanding what she meant.

”Sikong Jing’s terror is beyond imagination, and if Lu Chi refuses to heed advice, he will not come back.”

Gongyang Ying spoke slowly, her mind on the terrifying human-shaped monster, which was undoubtedly with Wang Ge and Sikong Jing at the moment.

So, what was Lu Chi doing if not delivering himself to his doom?

She had come to dissuade Lu Lungan to save his life on her grandfather’s orders, knowing full well that Lu Chi had directly taken his position as Marshal and that there was even an Emperor’s Order involved. Gongyang Ying... certainly wasn’t going to persuade him anymore.

She wanted certain people to understand how fearsome Sikong Jing was... and stop blindly pressuring the Imperial Advisor Mansion and Lu Lungan.

Let Lu Chi try it out and see how capable he is.

Gongyang Ying decided not to leave, staying right where she was next to Lu Lungan. Three days later, battered and broken soldiers emerged from the forest.

”Commander Lu, there’s a Beast Tide in the mountains... His Highness the Fifth Prince has fallen!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Lungan’s body shook violently, and he turned stiffly to look at Gongyang Ying, who was combing her hair beside him.

She smiled faintly and said softly, ”Commander Lu, congratulations on reclaiming your command. I will take my leave first.”

With that, she dashed back to her mount.

Just as Gongyang Ying was about to leave, Lu Lungan suddenly asked, ”Ying’er, have you reached the Extraordinary Realm?”

It was only in the moment Gongyang Ying flashed away that Lu Lungan sensed her aura, his eyes filling with shock.

Gongyang Ying smiled again and said, ”After waiting here for three days, I coincidentally advanced to the extraordinary realm. However, I am still no Moon Soul Fairy; I’m far behind Wang Ge.”

Having said that, her mount soared into the sky...

She thought of Wang Ge, who had reached the Extraordinary Third Realm while at the Imperial Advisor Mansion.

And she had just entered the Extraordinary First Realm, still needing to continue her pursuit. However, she was very confident in her martial prowess, because after merging with the Absolute Night Wolf King Tears, her True Qi had completely harmonized with the Moon Soul Battle Body.

Of course, there was also Sikong Jing. Was he also making progress?

Lu Lungan stood in place, murmuring to himself, ”Another Beast Tide, why does Sikong Jing always manage to trigger Beast Tides?”

In Gongyang Ying’s view, it was naturally the work of the human-shaped monster... but in fact, it was because Sikong Jing, after cutting off one arm, emitted a terrifying aura that panicked the beasts and caused them to flee en masse.

As for this event, Sikong Jing, still in the mountains, was of course totally unaware.

Boom...

In the Northern Mountains, three days later, Sikong Jing firmly reattached the beast arm. The meridians of the tailless dragon lizard extended from his arm and merged with the beast arm.

It was as if threads from his arm were threading into the beast arm.

Instantly, flesh adhered to flesh, and a complete beast arm appeared on Sikong Jing’s right arm.

It looked ferocious beyond imagination!

”According to the tailless dragon lizard, this is all I can do for now. I must wait until my True Qi completely overtakes the power of the beast arm before I can restore it to its original form. But this beast arm should be very powerful,” Sikong Jing said as he swung the beast arm. It was somewhat awkward at first, but after a while, there was no problem at all.

This beast arm itself was from a Peak Blood Devouring Demon Beast at the Reverse Soul Realm, and with his current True Qi, he naturally couldn’t suppress the power of the beast arm, hence the inability to restore it for the time being.

To restore it, he didn’t need to reach the Peak of Reverse Soul Realm, but at least the Dao Inquiry Realm would be necessary.

Once he finished, he glanced secretly at his sister who was still in cultivation, only to see her aura surging as she advanced in the Extraordinary Third Realm.

”I should also be able to challenge the Extraordinary Realm,” Sikong Jing murmured to himself.
