Chapter 885: A Battle in the Sky
“Mm.” The Adamant Nymph Emperor nodded. Among the seven Nymph Emperors, the strongest four were all plant-type, and the Parasol Tree Nymph Emperor and the Soul Capturer Nymph Emperor were both tree-type nymphs with deep connections to the Ancestral Tree. That was not to say that these powerful Emperors had never targeted the Blue Gold Tree clan, but they were obligated to openly support this ancestral lineage, and they did make good on that obligation. Otherwise, the Blue Gold Tree clan would not have been able to hold their position as a main city’s rulers once they lost their Emperor.
If he were to strike at Tang San today, the Soul Capturer Nymph Emperor would likely try to intervene. But the Adamant Nymph Emperor had absolute confidence. Once the fight started, killing a Great Nymph King or gravely injuring him wouldn’t be difficult.
To the Adamant Nymph Emperor, Tang San’s challenge seemed utterly foolish. If Tang San had left today and accepted compensation, he would have gotten away with it. But by choosing to challenge an Emperor, he was jumping into the fire of his own free will.
The Adamant Nymph Emperor cast a cold glance at Tang San and said, "We’ll fight in the sky." As it spoke, it soared upward, transforming into a ball of golden light as it shot into the sky.
Choosing to battle in the sky was, of course, to prevent the aftershocks from affecting the city. In truth, the Adamant Nymph Emperor, being a pure earth-attribute nymph, could only exert its full strength on the ground. But did it really need its full strength to fight a mere Great Nymph King? Especially since the Blue Gold Tree clan was not known for their combat prowess.
Tang San bowed slightly to the Soul Capturer Nymph Emperor once again and said, "Thank you for your assistance, Your Majesty Soul Capturer."
He then turned to the elders of the Blue Gold Tree clan, whose faces were filled with a mix of sadness and resolve. For a moment, they were at a loss for words. Jin Miaosen sobbed uncontrollably. "Big Brother, you must come back safely. Don’t push yourself. Your life is what’s most important for the Blue Gold Tree clan."
"Don’t worry. I’ll be fine. Elders, please take your seats and pray for me in the traditional way of the Blue Gold Tree clan. This battle is our clan’s just cause."
As he spoke, he threw the second and third elders a meaningful gaze.
