Chapter 496: Burial
Jiang Feng burst into laughter upon witnessing the scene, his treasured saber immediately slicing through the air. The transformation of Sea Fire would not involve many practitioners.
A man and a woman standing nearby presented contrasting demeanors. The man’s gaze grew colder, as if he contemplated joining them.
Meanwhile, the woman wore a charming smile and shouted provocatively to Jiang Feng and Ouyang Xu, "Brother Jiang, Brother Ouyang, you’re amazing! This slave has no idea who to cheer for!"
In that instant, Jiang Feng’s laughter paired cruelly with Ouyang Xu’s icy demeanor, as merciless as the screams of Earth Cultivators dying at their hands. Mount Everest resembled a living hell.
Many practitioners, fleeing with their whole hearts, glanced back at this tragic spectacle. Suddenly, a figure flickered in their minds, prompting cries of agony:
"Yang... Mr. Yang, where is our legend now?
"Mr. Yang, please come save us as soon as possible!"
"Mr. Yang, if you do not return soon, all practitioners of Earth will be... buried alive!"
These cries naturally reached Lin Shu and others atop the mountain. A beautiful woman standing nearby laughed as she asked Lin Shu, "Sister Lin Shu, what are they saying? Who is this Mr. Yang? Is he the indigenous people’s god they worship in faith?"
"What they need is the mightiest figure of the underworld," Lin Shu replied, nervously glancing toward Ouyang Xu. "He is said to be a resolute man in his twenties capable of elevating children to their pinnacle."
"Absurd! A man in his twenties can reach the peak of greatness? I doubt even Brother Su, Ghost Brother, and Brother Zhao could accomplish such feats in their twenties! The imagination of these indigenous Lower Realm people is laughable!"
Before the beauty could respond, the man beside her interjected.
