Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2781: Chapter 16: Mysterious Treasure! Lici Strikes It Rich

...

However, upon reflection, Cangping God Emperor thought that Lici’s words might have some reasoning.

If sacrificing a projection and a Chaotic World Destruction Pearl could eliminate three Demon Lords and destroy the Demonic Clan’s thousand-year supply, it was a huge profit!

Such a never-ending race war was like this, with countless sacrifices made for it. As long as the sacrifice was worthwhile and profitable, it was worth doing.

Could others sacrifice, but not his emperor projection?

Besides, even if he suffered great losses, at least his life would still be intact. If the Sea of Clouds Sacred Supreme were truly to sacrifice, he would truly be gone. Gangba Plate was even more impossible to lose, as he was a sixteen-level Barbarian Giant Leader with strategic value far surpassing this projection.

Such an opportunity, take the risk!

Cangping God Emperor’s eyes flashed with determination: ”This plan can at least reverse the unfavorable situation at our East Xia Divine Dynasty’s Void Sea battlefield and might allow us to gain a certain advantage on the overall battlefield, opening a gap in the prolonged war. I believe with Marshal Ji’s capabilities, he will seize the advantageous situation and further expand the overall battlefield results. It’s worth it, absolutely worth it!”

Despite the frequent discord and inevitable suspicion between him and the Tranquil Sky Divine King, regarding the major issues of the Human race, he believed Ji Taichang could hold firm.

”Old Cang, you really agreed?” Wang Lici couldn’t help feeling a little reluctant upon hearing the other’s quick agreement, ”Although it indeed counts as a major profit, you’ll still suffer considerable personal losses.”

”Silly girl~” Cangping God Emperor rubbed her head, ”I am the Divine Emperor, bearing the responsibility of guarding the East Xia Divine Dynasty. As long as there’s sufficient value or necessity, not to mention a mere projection, even sacrificing myself is no problem. Besides, all I do daily is handle state affairs, not dealing with any major incidents, nor solo fighting other Taoist Masters, a slight Divine Soul trauma would at most mean suffering for a period.”

”There are still plenty of top-tier Heaven and Earth Treasures in Shen Que Treasury, consuming one can ensure recovery over tens of thousands of years.”

”Alright, it’s settled then.” Wang Lici nodded, ”I’ll write to my Fourth Uncle later, asking him to help heal your Divine Soul’s backlash, perhaps reducing your negative state.”

”Good, good, good, it’s as you say then. I also happen to seize this opportunity to meet your Fourth Uncle.” Cangping God Emperor looked at Lici with indulgence.

This girl truly is a Goddess of Fortune; together with Wang Ying Xuan, they managed to find such a once-in-a-lifetime battle opportunity.

As for Wang Lici’s suggestion to let her Fourth Uncle heal him effectively, Cangping God Emperor didn’t believe it at all.

He is a dignified Taoist Master, even Realm Cultivators of the Great Luo cannot necessarily heal him, how could a mere Transcendent Void Realm cultivator possibly be of help?

Nevertheless, disbelief aside, he appreciated Wang Lici’s intentions.

Not long after they had decided on the plan, the Sea of Clouds Sacred Supreme responsible for reconnaissance outside returned.

Brimming with energy he announced, ”Partners, I discovered a supply unit entering the Heavenly Lake from the main stream of the Big Milky Way, presenting us with an opportunity for a feint... ah... This here is...”

”This is the strong support Lici brought in, as for the specific identity you need not concern yourself for now, Senior Sea of Clouds.” Wang Ying Xuan waved her hand, ”Since the opportunity has arisen, let us strike immediately!!! Let us achieve a glorious victory~~”

At Wang Ying Xuan’s command.

The elite Barbarian Giant unit immediately sprang into action.

At the same time.

In the rear base of the Demonic Clan.

Between numerous round warehouses, there was a lavish and magnificent group of Demonic Clan buildings.

This building complex was divided into two sections, the rear was a huge Demon Lord level Demonic Palace, slightly suspended above the base, keeping a distance from the surrounding structures, ready to detach at any time.

In front of the Demonic Palace, there was a vast array of palaces.

These palaces appeared much lower than the rear Demonic Palace, yet their forms were exceedingly luxurious, appearing spacious and comfortable.

Currently.

In this lavish, bright palace array, the local Netherworld Demon Lord was hosting a banquet to entertain two passing Demon Lords.

The Netherworld Demon Lord, was a very typical member of the high-ranking demon.

His form closely resembled the Human race, with a tall stature and deep-set features, bearing little difference from humans except for the pair of massive demon horns on his head and the giant demon wings on his back displaying his demonic identity.

On him, he wore a set of pitch-black armor, with his membranous wings folded behind, appearing mighty albeit with noticeable signs of aging, faintly exuding a trace of twilight.

Evidently, this Demon Lord’s age was already quite advanced.

As a highly evolved race, the origins of the Demonic Clan were shrouded in mystery, characterized by an intricate internal bloodline system, typically distinguishing by bloodline and family. Those like the Netherworld Demon Lord closely resembling the Human race belonged to a robust Demonic Vein.

As a Demon Lord within the high-ranking demon, his lifespan generally exceeded his Human race counterpart of the same realm, normal longevity up to forty to fifty thousand years wasn’t an issue.

However, no matter how extended the lifespan, aging and natural death remained inevitable.

The current Netherworld Demon Lord was clearly reaching the latter stages of life, poised to face life’s end shortly.

”Ghost Scorpion Demon Lord, White Bone Demon Lord.” The Netherworld Demon Lord took the wine pot from the attending witch, smilingly pouring wine for the other two Demon Lords, ”You two have endured hardships on this journey to execute the Great Commander Apocalypse’s task, I toast.”
