Peerless War God

The Third Prince was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He was so shocked that his expression changed drastically. He quickly took out a shield-like artifact and held it in his hand.    

Shadow Three took the lead and rushed over with his fastest speed to block the Third Prince’s path. He was extremely loyal.    

Bang.    

A muffled sound was heard.    

Shadow Three was sent flying and landed heavily on the ground. He crashed into a wall. At the same time, the black shadow that was coming at him also slowed down, revealing its true appearance.    

The Third Prince looked closely and was shocked. The newcomer was a corpse puppet. The corpse puppet was covered in armor that was filled with killing intent. It had an aura of an immortal-level.    

This discovery caused the Third Prince to turn pale with fright. He could not help but scream, “An immortal-level corpse puppet?”    

He seemed to have seen such an attack before, but he was too shocked to recall it.    

In the next moment, the strong corpse puppet attacked. It did not give the Third Prince much time to catch his breath. It charged forward and punched at the Third Prince. The punch was so powerful that it seemed to be able to pierce through the entire world.    

"Bang."    

A loud sound was heard.    

The solid shield in the Third Prince's hand shattered. The shield-wielding hands of the Third Prince turned limp, and the precious inner armor on his body burst open. The runes engraved on it were damaged one by one, and he could no longer support it. It completely dimmed down, and he was sent flying several hundred feet away. He lay on the ground in a sorry state.    

"Pooh." The Third Prince spat out a mouthful of old blood and cursed, "Damn it, they actually launched a sneak attack? If I hadn't been prepared, I would have been seriously injured."    

It had to be said that the corpse puppet's attack was indeed a little unexpected. If Ying San hadn't blocked it, the Third Prince would probably have died.    

Not far away, Ying San hurried over at his fastest speed when he saw this. He protected the Third Prince tightly behind him.    

"Third Highness, are you alright?"    

"Cough, cough, I'm fine. I won't die in a short while. You don't have to be so nervous."    

The Third Prince coughed and said, "Not good, the corpse puppet is coming again. Be careful."    

Ying San stood in front of the Third Prince and didn't move a step. Even though he was very afraid in his heart.    

"Third Prince, don't worry. With me here, if this monster wants to kill you, it will have to cross my corpse first."    

The Third Prince nodded and quickly transmitted a message to Chen Xiao, "Sir Chen Xiao, save me. If you don't do anything, I might really be dead."    

He smiled bitterly in his heart. Only now did he truly understand the importance of his own strength. Unfortunately, his cultivation talent was really limited.    

"Don't worry, I'm watching." Inside the temporary cave abode on the mountain peak, Chen Xiao replied.    

The Third Prince was startled for a moment and asked, "Then why aren't you doing anything? There is something wrong with this corpse puppet. It's an aura of an immortal-level. If you don't do anything, I'm finished."    

"It's fine. Can you still hold on?" Chen Xiao laughed.    

"..." The Third Prince was speechless.    

He gritted his teeth and did not care about anything else. He cursed, "Ying San, how long can you hold on?"    

As he cursed, he immediately sent a message for Ying San to hold on for a while longer. If Ying San could hold on for a while longer, he would be fine.    

As he spoke, the Third Prince did not waste his breath and ran into the city.    

“Yes, yes, I can hold on. Your Highness, don’t worry,” Ying San gritted his teeth and replied.    

Bang!    

Before he could finish his sentence, a huge fist that was heavier than a mountain landed on his body and sent him flying. Blood spurted out of his body and a cloud of blood mist appeared in the air.    

“…” The Third Prince was stunned and cursed in his heart.    

F*ck, he could hold on? He clearly could not even last a single round. Indeed, when facing an immortal-level combatant, any Calamity Transcender would not be able to hold on. Regardless of how loyal and fearless Ying San was, he would still end up the same.    

The only thing that made the Third Prince feel relieved was that the target of the zombie puppet was him, not Ying San. Therefore, after knocking Ying San down, the zombie puppet charged at him instead of attacking him.    

This made the Third Prince feel slightly relieved.    

“Come on, you bastard. You’re from the cult, right? If you have the guts, kill me in the city. Let’s see if you have the ability to do so.”    

The Third Prince shouted as he ran.    

If it was outside the city, he would not dare to be so arrogant, but this was inside the city. With Chen Xiao here, he would definitely be safe.    

"Roar!"    

As if he was angered by the Third Prince's provocation, the corpse puppet roared, and the bloody light on its body surged. Its speed suddenly increased by several times, and in a flash, it pounced towards the Third Prince.    

"Ah? Is this for real?"    

Seeing this scene, the Third Prince was shocked and did not dare to say anything more. He turned his head and ran away.    

"Huff … Huff …"    

After two breaths, the Third Prince could almost smell the stench of the corpse behind him. The corpse puppet had caught up.    

He was shocked, "Chen Xiao, if you don't make a move now, I will really be done for, ah!"    

"Roar!"    

Just as he finished speaking, the corpse puppet rushed over, about to catch up with the Third Prince. It was only a hundred meters away, and it chased him all the way into the city.    

"Hmph."    

Chen Xiao snorted coldly, and then a bloody fist flew out, accurately hitting the corpse puppet.    

"Boom!"    

A loud sound rang out.    

The corpse puppet flew in the air and was knocked down. It fell to the ground, smashing out a huge human-shaped pit. The dense corpse aura and murderous aura mixed together, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.    

Fortunately, after so many changes in Jingbian City, there were no longer any people living in the outskirts of the city, so it did not affect the innocent low-level cultivators and mortals.    

This way, Chen Xiao could go all out.    

"As expected, it's that old thing who is behind all this. Old Evil Corpse, huh? He only dares to use a corpse puppet to test me. Hmph, he really has regressed."    

Chen Xiao stared at the corpse puppet in the pit and sneered.    

He had seen such methods many times and was very familiar with them. The person who truly controlled the corpse puppet was definitely not far away from the city. Fine, I'll deal with the corpse puppet first and then find Old Evil Corpse. It won't be too late to attack at that time.    

"Roar!"    

In the pit, the corpse puppet was beaten down. It was very unwilling. After roaring angrily a few times, the killing intent on its body surged, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to shake. It was about to charge out again.    

However, Chen Xiao had already made his move. How could he give it such a chance?    

"Die."    

He raised his hand and a blood-colored palm struck out. It was three hundred meters in size and descended from the sky, carrying boundless might as it pressed down on the corpse puppet in the pit.    

The corpse puppet did not know fear, nor could it dodge. It could only use its full strength to counterattack.    

Boom!    

After a loud sound.    

The ground caved in. The corpse puppet's entire body was covered in black, filthy, and bloody blood. It lay weakly on the ground, and it had already been heavily injured in one strike.    

Almost at the same time that Chen Xiao defeated the corpse puppet, the three people hiding outside the city decisively took action.    

"Attack, now!" The black-robed protector said sternly, his eyes filled with killing intent.    

"Alright."
