Chapter 494: 494

Yang Zhen looked for a way out . He wanted to use the chaos of battle to his advantage before the Lords came to ruin everything .

Liu Qingyun and the others struck with the black blades and felt as if their blood boiled and ignited .

They reached a new height, a new level of power .

With the black blade in hand, none could stop them!

Yang Zhen found his moment and leaped out of the courtyard .

Liu Qingyun raged, “Damn it, that spineless Yang Zhen wants to run . We can’t let the leader escape!”

He wanted to block Yang Zhen but a fist from the later ruined his plan . Yang Zhen barked, “You think I would’ve planned this if I wasn’t strong enough?”

“None of you are a match for me!”

Yang Zhen trod the sky when a black crow flew at him .

He ignored it, “Ignorant animal . “

Right as it got close to him, it puffed into a cloud of black smoke and a figure jumped out . Who else if not our dear Chen Ming?

Nine Year Cicada flashed across Yang Zhen’s neck with Hegemonic Immortal Sword .

A head fell .

The average man wouldn’t look twice at a random crow in mid escape, not to mention an immortal .

The sudden strike left Yang Zhen too slow to react .

Chen Ming landed on the roof and surveyed the battle . It held no interest to him to mingle among others so he just flashed Allheaven Stellar Array to batter them .

There was no way his new ‘kin’ would lose .

If I joined, these guys won’t have feelings of kinship .

This feeling came into play when these Celestial Immortals were confronted with a choice . So I better fight alongside them in a battle against common enemies .

The kins felt their valor surging at Chen Ming’s arrival . Now that they had his help, they mowed through the enemies like grass .

Two hours later, no one was left standing, and thanks to Chen Ming’s array, the destruction was kept to a minimum .

The Celestial Immortals hacked the heads and cupped their hands at Chen Ming, “Mountain Lord, the enemy is vanquished!”

Chen Ming chuckled, “Everyone is a cicada warrior . Come, let us celebrate on Yan Mountain!”

Ling Xian got the feast ready a long time ago . The way he saw it, If Master acts, nothing will go wrong .

Chen Ming brought Liu Qingyun and the rest to Yan Mountain branch’s side hall . They all sat down, with Chen Ming taking the seat of honor . Ling Xian was shameless in flanking Chen Ming’s side . The chances to get close to Master were far and few in between . He learned to treasure each moment .

Chen Ming was rather awkward . With Ling Xian as Second Sect Leader and Zhuo Qingyao in seclusion, all matters had his final say . If not for letting him have a bit of prestige, Chen Ming would’ve kicked him away by now .

Wan Baqian also came and sat across from him with Luo Muye .

Only these three brats were free . Zhuo Qingyao was in seclusion, Li Suyi trained in Hegemonic Immortal Sword, and Chen Lingyu, well, she was just swamped with work .

Luo Muye, on the other hand, was pesky . Chen Ming raised him every step of the way, yet he didn’t have much sense of awe in him for his seniors as he reached out and began eating .

Ling Xian and Wan Baqian didn’t mind it at all . They got used to Master loving to spoil the littlest of them .

However, for some reason, Master had yet to hold the ceremony . But Ling Xian and Wan Baqian were convinced the kid was going to be their little junior brother .

The Celestial Immortals enjoyed the feast and Liu Qingyun toasted, “We offer this cup to Mountain Lord . If not for Mountain Lord, that spineless Yang Zhen would’ve run!”

“To Mountain Lord!”

Chen Ming also toasted, “This was everyone’s hard work! I did nothing really . “

Chen Ming and others drank their fill, enjoyed the festivities and fine cuisine . Liu Qingyun asked, “Mountain Lord, I wonder if I can bring my sons and daughters to Yan Mountain and pay respect to ancestor . “

Chen Ming didn’t refuse .

Generally speaking, all clans of status and power had their home in the capital for two reasons . One, the closer to Chen Ming the safer they were and the more resources they got . Two had to do with Chen Ming . He wouldn’t need worrying about their betrayal since their clans were just a stone throw away .

Betrayal? Don’t you know the meaning of clan extermination?

Chen Ming smiled, “But of course, let my second disciple know and he’ll arrange it . “

Liu Qingyun turned to Ling Xian, “Then I will trouble Second Sect Leader!”

Ling Xian smiled, “It’s nothing . Expansion Star doesn’t have many people, with many places for you to settle . The more people the better . “

As for what Chen Ming had planned to do with Liu Qingyun and co . , he didn’t even dwell on it, Who cares, why bother if they’re not Gold Immortals?

But their loyalty as the first batch matched the standards . He’d wait for them to become Gold Immortals before looking for a perfect candidate among them to give one of the 12 Supreme Gold Immortal fruits .

With the festivities over, Chen Ming was left with Wan Baqian and Ling Xian in the hall . Ling Xian downed a cup and asked, “Master, what do we do with the dead Celestial Immortals’ clans?”

Chen Ming was calmly sipping his drink, “Wipeout and clean out their clans . Leave no survivors . “

Ling Xian asked, “Is it a secret or direct order?”

“Let the new Celestial Immortals go . Since I dare do it, I do not fear the world’s view of me . In this world, there’s plenty who want to kill us . “

“Chen Ming’s head is here . You want it, come and get it!”
