Chapter 198: Married Couple Working Together

Dawn .

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue did the same as usual . They used their movement techniques and left the prefecture city in seconds . They came to a mountainous area outside the city . Their influence on the Heaven and Earth powers prevented mortals from seeing them .

They had a temporary residence in the mountains—a wooden hut . Their residence in the city was too small . Liu Qiyue needed lots of space to hone her archery . As a Great Solar Godfiend sharpshooter, even the Dao Academy’s archery range was insufficient for her . The mountains outside the city had sufficient empty space for her practice .

Every morning, the couple exited the city, cultivated for six hours before going back for lunch . In the afternoon, they spent their free time engaging in leisure activities that involved playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting .

The couple cherished their peaceful days .

Liu Qiyue took out a small cloth bag and pulled the string loose . The cloth bag’s opening expanded to the size of a face basin after the string was loosened . Liu Qiyue reached into it and took out a huge quiver—which had 50 arrows . These items were huge and long . However, she had taken it out from a small cloth bag; it was very magical .

“Ah Chuan, this cloth bag is truly magical . ” Despite it only being a few days since she received this gift from her husband, Liu Qiyue still loved it a lot . “Usually, my greatest weakness lies with the quiver . If the quiver is too small, I carry too few arrows with me! If the quiver is too large, it affects my speed . Furthermore, a huge quiver still carries a limited number of arrows . However, I have 20 quivers inside this cloth bag! That totals 1000 arrows, which means I can freely shoot the demon monarchs without too much consequence . Otherwise, I will have to keep count when shooting the arrows, afraid that I will run out . ”

Meng Chuan smiled . “That Demon Monarch White Fox specially delivered this treasure to you, Qiyue . ”

Liu Qiyue smiled .

The tiny cloth bag he obtained from Demon Monarch White Fox hid a huge pocket space . It was about half the size of a house . There was still plenty of space even after putting 20 quivers inside .

Meng Chuan was still very surprised . This was because he had never seen such a treasure before . However, Godfiends likely had similar treasures . Archean Mountain’s Nine Mystical Caves seemed as vast as a small world even though it was inside a mountain belly . He had also seen the Supremacy retrieve items from the flip with a flip of the hand . Godfiends were equally brilliant when it came to controlling “space . ”

However, it was clear that items with stable storage spaces were very rare and precious! There was nothing similar available for exchange at Archean Mountain .

To Meng Chuan, this was just a rare item as it did little to boost his strength . But it was of great help to a sharpshooter! With a large number of portable arrows, they could shoot arrows limitlessly! Meng Chuan naturally gave it to his wife, Liu Qiyue .

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Arrows tore through the sky one after another like swimming dragons . Liu Qiyue was practicing her archery .

Under a large tree, Meng Chuan shook a tree with a mere thought . Immediately, many leaves swayed and fell to the ground . Meng Chuan also began training .

The saber struck out with lightning as he delivered a hundred strikes swiftly . The leaves were almost halved symmetrically .

My saber arts are only this fast because I cultivate the Lightning Devastator Fiend Body . In terms of my technique realm, I’m still lacking . Meng Chuan shook his head slightly . If I were to double my saber speed with just my technique realm, I would have reached the Saber Dao realm .

What was the Saber Dao realm? It was the enlightenment of the Dao in regards to the saber! It was a Dao, a path that only belonged to him . Once at the Saber Dao realm, one could use their saber arts to seek answers from their inner self .

Again . With a thought, leaves fell from the tree again . Meng Chuan struck again .

Moments later, the tree became almost bald . Instead of making it completely bare of leaves, Meng Chuan switched to another tree and continued his saber practice . There were many trees in this mountain forest .

…

After more than two hours of cultivation—

“Oh?” The duo’s expressions changed slightly as they took out their Patroller tokens . The tokens glowed red .

“Someone needs help?” The two exchanged glances .

Liu Qiyue didn’t even waste time picking up the dozen arrows that were in the distance . She could always pick them up later . After all, it was an emergency . A few seconds meant the difference between life and death .

“Let’s go . ” Meng Chuan held his wife’s arm .

Swoosh .

He immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning and streaked across the sky . Ever since he had successfully imprinted the second-level Lightning Rune, Meng Chuan’s speed had increased tremendously . Now, he could travel over 1 . 5 kilometers in a single flash whilst bringing his wife with him! At this speed, he was considered rather fast among Regis Godfiends . If he were to travel alone, he would have speed rivaling the fastest Regis Godfiends .

“This is the first time we are leaving Gu Mountain Prefecture for a rescue,” said Liu Qiyue via voice transmission as she protected her body with Quintessential Essence . “Right now, each prefecture only has one Godfiend team . Each team consists of four Great Solar Godfiends . Since a Godfiend team has requested backup, the danger they have encountered will not be easy to deal with . ”

“Act according to plan,” said Meng Chuan .

Meng Chuan was very calm since he had done similar things in the past . He had also acted as reinforcements with Zhang Yunfeng several times in the past .

Liu Qiyue was nervous . This was the first time she was on a rescue mission that was hundreds of kilometers away from her designated area .

Swoosh .

With a flash, he streaked across the sky and past a mountain . He unleashed the Swallow Stance in midair, traversing more than five kilometers before landing . He had crossed an entire mountain without even landing once . Wu State had very few mountains . The ones that did exist in Wu State were relatively small . Thousand-foot tall mountains were considered towering mountains here .

Compared to the north and other areas, the difference was enormous .

“Ah Chuan, your movement technique is really fast . ” Liu Qiyue felt his astonishing speed as the scenery around her zoomed past her . Even though she had experienced it more than once, it still left her amazed .

“Once I become a Marquis Godfiend, my speed will be at the top of the world,” said Meng Chuan with a smile . “As time passes, I’ll become faster and faster . ”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Meng Chuan and his wife crossed huge lakes . In Wu State, there were more lakes than mountains! It was very common to see lakes that were dozens of kilometers long . Some lakes exceeded 50 kilometers in length! The vast plains and numerous lakes made the area very suitable for farming .

“We’re here!” With a tap on the lake’s surface, Meng Chuan traveled three kilometers before arriving above a county city .

The duo immediately saw the battle occurring in the city .

Godfiend auras and demon monarch auras constantly erupted as the battle ensued .

Fog blanketed the city; most of the city was in ruins . People had been waiting anxiously in the tunnels . There were two parties that were engaged in battle . One party consisted of four Great Solar Godfiends—who were barely holding on despite working together . Two were heavily injured .

The other party consisted of six demon monarchs! The leader was a grey-furred cat demon monarch; he had a third eye between his eyebrows .

The three-eyed cat demon monarch closed in on the Godfiend team .

A silver-armored man wielded a shield and suddenly swung it to the side . However, the cat demon monarch’s third eye blinked, and the silver-armored man let out a low painful grunt . The three-eyed cat demon monarch steered clear of the shield and reached for his neck .

Swish! A purple-robed woman rapidly rushed over as a sword beam slashed at the cat demon monarch .

Under the cat demon monarch’s leadership, the six demon monarchs surrounded and attacked the four Godfiends . The four Godfiends had cast forbidden Godfiend spells and used all means available to them to hold on .

“Haha, this is the life-and-death relationship between you humans? For the sake of two injured companions, the two of you aren’t willing to escape . Are you going to live and die together?” With five other demon monarchs aiding him, Demon Monarch Cat held the absolute strength advantage .

“If we were to flee in different directions, it would be impressive if one of us manages to escape,” shouted the purple-robed woman . “If we join forces to deal with the threat, we might be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive . I urge you demon monarchs to leave quickly . Otherwise, you won’t be able to escape after powerful Godfiends arrive . ”

“I’ll kill you before leaving . There’s plenty of ti—” Demon Monarch Cat suddenly looked into the distance . Lightning flashed across the sky as two figures appeared above the county city . “The Godfiends are here?”

The six demon monarchs shuddered in fear .

The Godfiends came so quickly?

Even a Marquis Godfiend wouldn’t be this fast unless they were guarding the prefecture .
