Chapter 452 - The Leader of the Divine Generals
Translator: Aran
In the split second of the wind rising, the old man, who kept his head low and sweeping the floor, waved the broom in his hands about.
It really was him?
Ye Qingyu had no idea at all.

As though he sensed Ye Qingyu’s surprise, old man Su who had been keeping his head down and sweeping, suddenly lifted his head and smiled at Ye Qingyu, showing his yellow teeth that were half gone. His skin was like dried longan, wrinkled and dried, and at first glance even his facial features were not very clear.
But his smile, made Ye Qingyu certain that this old man Su was really the hidden world expert who had helped him twice before. He had used a soft and weak little leaf to withstand the attacks of the bald giant expert of the Brute Race and great demon Long Hangyun.
Old man Su gently smiled. He threw away the broom in his hand, placed both hands on his waist, stood up and sighed, “Really, a group of simple-minded things fooling around. You made this old man have to stop sweeping the floor. Can’t they let me have some peaceful days?”
He raised his arm, slowly stretching his body. The bones and joints of his body were, like a rusty machine, making squeaking sounds. His bent body was gradually straightening up.
He smiled at Ye Qingyu and nodded. “Old man pays his respect to the Palace Lord.”
Ye Qingyu, not able to determine the identity of this old man Su, could only nod in response.
In the sky, there were two experts who also saw this scene.
The look on the Great Demon King of the Hurricane Wave Demon Court, Long Hangyun, grew serious, asking loudly, “Who are you? Why sneak into the [Light Palace]?”
“Sneak in?” Old man Su smiled, stretched his back, and stepped away until he soared into the air, his body transforming and constantly rising higher. In less than ten steps, he had came to as high as the vault of heaven, standing opposite of the two experts. “Oh, the little loach that my subordinate didn’t kill last time has grown up, and dares to step into the Snow Capital and fight against my Lord of the Light Palace. It seems that you stupid fools that eat from the water do not have a good memory!”
With these words, there was a sudden change in the expression on the Great Demon King Long Hangyun’s face.
A bewildered look crept slowly across his face, as his eyes were staring up and down at old man Su, trying to discern the identity of the old man who seemed like he would fall down with a gust of wind.
But on the other side, the bald-headed expert of the Brute Race did not have any fear at all.
He was a recent Witch King born between the White Mountain Black Waters called Jin Yi. It has been twenty years ever since he received the status of King, and although he was not famous in the Heaven Wasteland Domain, among the demons of White Mountain Black Water he has a well respected reputation. He was considered the most outstanding genius of White Mountain Black Water in the century, and had received praise from the current Brute Emperor of Water Mountain. His growth and experience had been a completely smooth ride, he was quite unruly and considered everyone else to be beneath him.
“You’re the one that just blocked my attack?”
There were black tattoos all over the bald-headed Brute expert Jin Yi’s body. When he was speaking, the tattoos on his face were flashing, and there were penetrating evil spirits roaming around. Then, a dark cyan light suddenly shot out from his eyes, like lightning.
“Ah, the younger generation is not sensible. They do not know the immensity of heaven and earth, and wants to use this light to stab at this old man?” Old man Su waved his hand casually.
A fiery leaf appeared between his fingers.
The small leaf was creating a warm flickering glow, and like a small mirror was on one side, it easily blocked the dark blue gaze.
The eye light was a witchcraft of the Brute Witch Palace.
Legends say that this sort of witchcraft can exhibit the power of the witch through their eyes. Whatever object the eyes fall on, the witch power can instantly penetrate into their body, producing fear, sadness, hate, despair and all sorts of terrifying negative emotions. It could directly destroy the opponent’s heart, make it become their puppet, and completely destroy a person’s martial arts will.
This kind of witchcraft had a very high restraint on a cultivator’s innate conditions. Since ancient times, there had only been a few cultivators that were successful. It’s no surprise that Jin Yi was worthy of being called a rare genius of White Mountain Black Water, and was able to display this power in the blink of an eye.
Unfortunately, old man Su was effortlessly able to block his pupil light with a small piece of leaf, and neutralize the attack.
Jin Yi’s face twisted in disbelief, and was about to change his attack method.
But old man Su turned his hand over and gently blew at the fire leaf in his hand.
There was a loud bang, a bright flash of flame, that came exploding out from the little leaf, but before the blazing heat was felt, there was a formidable power that build up so suddenly that it was beyond the reaction speed of anyone. By the time Jin Yi could react, his witch power was broken through and a ring of fire surrounded him.
“Hmph, you want to refine me with a mere ordinary fire? Great Witch divine of the wilderness, give me witch body!”
Jin Yi thundered, when the tattoos all over his body flashed and drifted out, darkness spread. The numerous tattoos were like a roaming dragon, flickering within one meter of distance from his body. Then, the faint black light transformed into a huge, dozens of meters high body, with the same appearance and face as Jin Yi, except the body was even more tremendous, witch power surging, like a real person. There was ancient demon force pouring out, obstructing the scarlet red flame attack.
Witch body!
The experts of the Brute Race cultivated the power of the witch and worship the ancient witch divine. In the ancient times of the Brute race, it is said that there were 18 martial divines, experts of the Brute Race that obtained witch power through cultivation. The more profound the cultivation, the higher the possibility of reversing and stimulating the blood of the martial divine. Once successful, one can achieve the power of the witch divine.
Those that achieved the witch body was a Witch King.
At this critical moment, Jin Yi sacrificed his witch body to resist against the flames that erupted from the fiery leaf.
“Oh, so you have built a witch body. No wonder you are so arrogant at such a young age. But your witch body is not good enough, I will discipline you well on behalf of your family.” As though old man Su had expected such a scene, he tossed away the fiery leaf.
Instantaneously, the fiery leaf swelled and grew, extending to thousands of meters long and hundred meters wide, like a huge curtain covering half the sky.
Before Jin Yi could react, the expanded leaf curled up and wrapped around his witch body. In a fraction of a second he was covered with hundreds of layers like a huge wrapped dumpling. The branches and marks of the fiery leaf were like a natural rune formation. There was a blazing red stream of light flashing, and a mysterious power surging. No matter how Jin Yi was struggling inside, he could not break free.
On the other side, when Great Demon King Long Hanyun saw this scene, his expression abruptly changed, like he just saw a ghost.
“North Blazing Red Fire... You... are you Gao Diping? Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, Yu, the Gong of the Five Great Divine Generals.” Long Hangyun didn’t know whether it was fear or shock, but his body was slightly trembling, raising his finger and pointing to old man Su. “You you you... You have been hiding in the Snow Capital all along, you... No, your body... How did you become like this?"
Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, Yu!
The five men of the six experts who were following the divine War God.
The divine War God was unrivalled, the Five Great Divine Generals, Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, Yu, were also famous for their fighting prowess. It is said that the Five Great Divine Generals were all orphans, and of a low status, but the divine War God took them in as disciples and gave them guidance in martial arts. Ten years later, they fought for the Snow Empire and had never lost once, even many masters of the era of sects were no match for them. In many bloody wars, the divine War God did not need to do anything, the Five Great Divine Generals were able to get rid of countless enemies.
At that time, how many masters of the era of sects and monsters of the ancient times were killed by the Five Great Divine Generals.
The Five Great Divine Generals earned their glory through a series of bloody battles.
As a man who had been through that period of time, Long Hangyun knew how frightening the Five Great Divine Generals were.
And the person in front of him right now, North Blazing Red Fire Gao Diping, was the legendary Divine General Gong, the leader of the Five Great Divine Generals, also the one that killed the most, and had cultivated a fiery yuan qi state. Long Hangyun was able to determine the identity of this old man Su from his strength and aura.
Old man Su smiled. “I have retired from Jianghu for a hundred years, still someone remembers my name, good. Hahaha, on the basis of you recognizing my identity, today I won’t kill you. Small loach get lost, the matters of the [Light Palace] is not something you can interfere in.”
“You...” Long Hangyun was furious, but dared not attack at this moment.
He was well respected in the waters of the south, even the Hurricane Water Demon Court had been extremely courteous to him. But this old man had called him a little loach. It was a huge insult, but his opponent was an invincible divine general who had once dominated an era. Although he had been retired for a hundred years, his power still existed. Long Hangyun was somewhat apprehensive.
Just then——
“Oh, the former Five Great Divine Generals are now just a dog, a weak and old body, at his last breaths. But he still dares to be be so arrogant, and showing off the authority of the past. You are just appearing fierce while cowardly at heart. It really is ridiculous and pitiful.”
Another voice sounded.
A tall and imposing stature, in the flickering glimmer, appeared in the air.
On the ground.
Ye Qingyu, who has been swallowing his astonishment, quietly watching how the situation developed, could not help exclaiming at this moment.
Because the one that appeared in the air, Ye Qingyu knew who he was.
White brows and white hair, a silver demon armour.
The figure was like an icy snow mountain that never changed. It was enough to make one feel suffocation with once glimpse.
The villain of this generation, Yan Buhui.
Since the establishment of the Snow Empire, he the biggest traitor of the Human Race.
The eternal disgrace of Youyan Pass.
The target that the Youyan Pass army wanted to kill even in their dreams.
Also the head of this Snow Ground Demon Court diplomatic mission, the representative of the Snow Emperor Demon Court in charge of the peace talks with the Snow Capital.
Yan Buhui!
This ruthless person that faces thousands of pointing fingers with a cold scowl, made an appearance in this way, at such time, and at such occasion... He, in the face of the numerous people of the Snow Capital, in the face of his own fellow soldiers and citizens, did he really not have the slightest fear and guilt?
Ye Qingyu’s gaze was firmly fixed on that man.
