Proud Ruler of the World

Chapter 86 - Returning to the Black Forest

The son of the marshal, the name of the little general. Although they were not the main generals that returned to the imperial court, they were better than the main generals. Don't forget, he still has the position of governor.

He had to go on stage for this occasion. Even if he didn't say anything, he had to come.

After cleaning the battlefield, only a few orphan soldiers and some necessary personnel remained. The rest of the families in Northern Frontier City and its vicinity were all given three days of vacation.

Three days had passed, and on that day, all the soldiers had gathered here.

"There's no absence for Squad One, no absence for Squad Two …"

"There is no absence from the first army, no absence from the second army …"

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, not a single one was missing, all rushing back this morning to this place, because today was the day their squad would return to the imperial court.

Chu Fanliang saw Chu’s mother sitting at the side, and brought Chu Yunyan and the others to his side.

"Good morning mother, your son (daughter) greets you." Chu Fanliang and Chu Yunyan were the first to speak.

"Good morning, Auntie!" Jiang Qing and Meng Gao then spoke out.

"Mom, these two are my subordinates. They've always been protecting me!" Hearing that, the Chu’s mother nodded his head.

"Alright, let's not talk in this kind of situation for now. When the ceremony is over, let's have a good chat. "

This time, Chu Fanliang and the rest did not make a sound, and quietly watched the teacher returning to court ceremony.

As Chu Sanshi's voice ended, the lead troops had already begun their slow march. This time, they were not going to quickly march back. They were going to let the citizens of the Heaven's Might Territory see the strength of the northern army.

As the patriarch's family, the Chu’s mother was naturally in the middle of the army. Therefore, they did not have to leave, and waited until the vanguards had all left before they could enter the army.

One had to know that the army of one hundred thousand had set out on a single path. Even for the vanguard, there were at least thirty thousand soldiers.

Only a small portion of the baggage was left behind when they arrived, while the rest were pulled back to the Imperial City. Therefore, the speed of their journey was somewhat slow. If the Central Army wanted to travel, they would have to wait at least four hours or so.

Finally, the three armies were all waiting for their departure. No one paid any more attention to the high platform. And Chu Sanshi, who was on the stage, stood among's group and warned them.

All of this was for the good of the Chu’s mother and Chu Fanliang. Hearing this, the Chu’s mother and Chu Fanliang felt warm in their hearts, and Chu Sanshi had to personally escort them within a three hundred mile radius of the Northern Frontier City …

This battle that had lasted for almost two months was like a dream for him. His strength had actually increased by two levels. He had already reached the middle stage of the spiritual exercise, this was something he had never expected.

Furthermore, he accepted Hua Shu as his bodyguard, and Meng Gao as the rash youth. Two months was at least more efficient than before.

Although he was up against the redbud, he was not afraid at all in his heart. If he was afraid, then it wouldn't be Chu Fanliang. In this world, it would just be a pile of loess, what's wrong?

His own pride was indelible. Even if the Heavenly Emperor himself were to come, he would not be afraid. His personality made him just like that.

When Chu’s mother first started to march, he sat in the carriage and scolded Chu Fanliang. However, his discontent was filled with concern, so when Chu Fanliang heard it, he still felt elated.

Seeing Chu Fanliang's attitude, Chu’s mother felt helpless and gave up.

There were two Qi Cultivating Stage experts that Chu Fanliang had personally trained to guard the surroundings of the Chu’s mother. After coming out this time, Chu Fanliang had them develop their own powers as well.

Before they left, they had taught them the spiritual exercise and the Spirit King's techniques. Those were all tricked out from Qiankun Spirit.

He had always suspected that there was no need to use others, so he wasn't afraid of that peerless art revealing its secrets.

Meng Gao and Jiang Qing had also received the cultivation technique, and Meng Gao was even more determined to not let this boss go.

Jiang Qing could be considered to have completed his own mission, helping to take down the might of the heavens.

Hua Shu was still hidden in the darkness, and would only appear when something happened to Chu Fanliang.

Half a month passed in succession, and their central army was already not far from the Black Forest. Hua Shu planned to return to his nest to take a look. However, Chu Fanliang was not at ease, and followed him alone.

One was at the peak of the spiritual exercise and the other was a Half step Spirit Emperor. The two of them were extremely fast. The two of them didn't fly. They only used their legs to travel, but they were already so fast.

Before they even arrived, Hua Shu had already discovered the problem. They were less than thirty miles away, yet they discovered that not a single living thing was around. How could this happen near the Black Forest?

One had to know that within fifty miles of the Black Forest, although it was not the territory of the Black Forest, it was still a place with a lot of animals.

However, even though they were at a distance of 30 miles, not a single living creature could be seen. This was clearly a bit unusual.

"Did you find anything?" When Hua Shu asked about Chu Fanliang, he felt that something bad had happened.

"There doesn't seem to be a single living thing around here. This is the surroundings of your Black Forest, could it be that something happened to him?" Although Chu Fanliang was only at the high level of spiritual exercise, his perception was still good, even surpassing some of the Spirit King s. He naturally discovered that there wasn't even a single living thing in the surrounding area. The plants were still there, but only the small trees and grass were still there. However, although the old trees could not see anything on the outside, they were exhausted.

"Something definitely happened. Wait for me here, I'll go take a look myself." If Hua Shu wanted to abandon Chu Fanliang, he was afraid that he would encounter danger, so he did not want to bring Chu Fanliang along.

"How is this possible? Don't forget, I'm still above Spirit King. You're the one who caused so much trouble in the past. You want to abandon me for such a crappy matter? "Impossible, let's go!" Chu Fanliang shouted in anger.

Then, they proceeded to the Black Forest with Hua Shu. Sure enough, as the two of them expected, something had happened to the Black Forest.

The first time Chu Fanliang came, it was filled with animals. But now, not even a single bug could be found, not a single living thing.

As if he had been infected by a virus, the Black Forest was now deathly still. Hua Shu's expression became even more gloomy. This was his base, the place where he had rooted himself for a thousand years, but he never thought that there would not even be a single living thing left.

"Who exactly did this? Let me know, I must kill this beast from above and below! " Hua Shu roared.

The place they had lived in for a thousand years, although it was a place where the strong preyed on the weak, was now a place where every blade of grass and tree was a witness to his existence.
