Chapter 1247: Sky Devil Tomb!

Who was the Broken Wing Sky Devil? Xia Fei had no idea. What were Zumi and Ling Boyu so afraid of in the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s tomb? It only left Xia Fei even more confused.

It had to be said that this was not just the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Cenotaph, where some of the clothes that the Broken Wing Sky Devil had worn in life were buried. There was no way a Spiritualist who had Peak Founder cultivation would be so afraid if that were so, and it was enough to make even a Dragoon sweat. The twists and turns to this were far too incredible.

*Roar!*

What followed was a low and guttural growl coming from beneath the ground, and Xia Fei’s suspicions were answered.

Xia Fei was still fine, but the expressions on Zumi and Ling Boyu changed drastically! Like the two had made prior arrangements, both men froze at the same time and pricked up their ears to hear. All their hairs were standing on end.

“Keep fighting!” Xia Fei, who was still clueless to what this all meant, was far bolder than these two. Upon seeing his enemy stop, he instead ramped up the intensity of his attacks.

There was a reason why Xia Fei had to shout this; Furball had become agitated after hearing that roar!

Everyone watched as Furball suddenly halted in mid air, and let out a series of howls toward the ground.

Sure enough, Furball was a fearless Holy Beast, ferocious and unafraid of death! As a Dragoon, Ling Boyu was already greatly frightened after hearing that sound, yet Furball was not only unafraid, he had instead grown angrier!

*Rumble*

Furball suddenly accelerated, charging toward the ground headfirst. A hole suddenly opened up in the white marble floor, revealing a dark tunnel. Furball glared just once and immediately dashed in, looking like he was ready to fight it out with whatever was making that sound!

Xia Fei cried out in silent dread. Exotic Beasts had senses that were well beyond a human’s, and it seemed like Furball had sensed there would be danger. It was just that because Furball was a Holy Beast, one that never knew retreat, his reaction to danger was not to back down, but instead to charge forward and nip the danger at its source!

“You too!” Xia Fei yelled to Little Goldie. Little Goldie already had the intention of helping Furball, but due to the loyalty he had toward his master, he did not dare nor was he willing to just leave Xia Fei. The moment he received Xia Fei’s expressed permission, however, Little Goldie went diving right after Furball.

Little Goldie and Furball were different. The latter would meet strength with strength, biting back at whoever dared to threaten him, while the former was a little dull. Little Goldie did not have too much of a reaction toward danger, dashing right into the tiger’s den, fearless of death. It did not even care to ask if the opponent was something it could beat; all that mattered was that it was something to fight!

Furball and Little Goldie are fairly strong together, but Xia Fei was nevertheless worried about them. Furball was very loyal; anything that could cause him to abandon Xia Fei so he could face it alone was sure to be quite troublesome!

Ling Boyu was wearing a mask, making it hard to tell what his expression was beneath it, but his eyes betrayed a measure of panic, almost as if he felt even more unsettled after seeing Furball and Little Goldie zooming down underground.

*Bang!*

The black saber shot out like an arrow. While it was fast, it was not that accurate. Without a word, Ling Boyu used the move and swiftly retreated outside. Either he did not wish to continue the fight, or he simply did not desire to battle inside the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Cenotaph.

Zumi performed a similar action, following right after Ling Boyu as they sought to escape.

This was an opportunity. If Xia Fei was Ling Boyu, he would surely have turned back and thrust his sword at Zumi in an attempt to take his life, but Ling Boyu did not do that. He had devoted all his efforts to leaving the Sky Devil’s tomb.

“Block him!” Xia Fei ordered, and Peacock Blue suddenly burst out from the ground like a green wall to block Zumi’s way forward, while Xia Fei cunningly tossed out Fiend Lock, with Nirvana coming in from the side!

Zumi was ultimately a whole level under Ling Boyu. While Xia Fei could not stop a Dragoon, he was capable of stopping him!

His three hundred thousand kilometer per second top speed, an Immemorial Mystical Armament, Fiendish Blade Nirvana, and an Annihilator grade soul weapon were all mobilized in unison! Xia Fei was forcing Zumi to his death!

Fiend Lock circled around Zumi, making a very obvious cut on his war armor. Zumi’s war armor waspeak Founder-grade, so it was naturally no match for the Annihilator-grade Fiend Lock.

*Whoosh*

Xia Fei was holding onto Fiendish Blade Nirvana, and there was a black flash. Xia Fei used his six-edged snowflake blade to slice off Zumi’s ear!

Spirit energy began leaking unceasingly as Zumi instantly felt faint.

“Don’t leave!” Xia Fei shouted as he went lunging at Zumi.

“Why can’t I?!” Zumi was indignant.

“This place is strange, and you must know the reason! If my Furball and Little Goldie lose even a strand of hair, I will kill you, then your entire clan!” Xia Fei bellowed with bloodshot eyes. He grabbed a hold of Zumi with one hand, like holding a little chick. He leapt down into the second floor of the tomb, chasing after Furball and Little Goldie, not caring if Zumi was willing to join him or not.

Zumi’s face went red! How unreasonable was this?! Xia Fei’s Exotic Beasts had jumped in of their own volition, but Xia Fei would kill Zumi if anything happened to them?! How did any of this concern Zumi?

How was he to know about the relationship Xia Fei had with his two pets, or how they treated Xia Fei like family?

No, they treated him even closer than family!

Every time Xia Fei was in danger, these two rascals would risk their own necks to help save him. Such emotion might not be something even family could muster!

Today, it was obvious just how dangerous the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s tomb would be, otherwise why would an esteemed Dragoon flee with such resolve?

As for Furball dashing deeper into the tomb without caring for his own safety, that was just the greatest reaction he had to danger!

Furball’s natural instinct sensed that the danger coming from underground was far greater than the fight on the surface! Thus he went charging down there without fail; he did not do that for fun, but to help block a blow coming for Xia Fei yet again!

Under such circumstances, how could Xia Fei let someone like Zumi, who knew what was going on, run off?! If anything were to happen to Furball, forget killing Zumi’s entire clan, Xia Fei might even entertain the thought of eradicating the entire Blueblood race!

Indubitably, Xia Fei was moving at his top speed!

*boom*

Xia Fei was like a beam of light, chasing after Furball and Little Goldie.

The tunnel was dark, and there were murals of the Broken Wing Sky Devil massacring his enemies. Xia Fei had no time to look, and was just charging straight ahead!

A wall blocked the way forward, almost as if Furball and Little Goldie had accidentally triggered some trap or sorts. Xia Fei did not even use his weapon and just blew that wall apart with a singular punch!

*Kaboom!*

The metal wall exploded open!

“Furball! Goldie!”

Xia Fei was running and shouting like a madman. Given Xia Fei’s speed, he should be able to catch up to the two in the blink of an eye, but now that he could not catch even a glimpse of their shadows, Xia Fei was getting even more anxious, and his anger was welling up inside him!

There were more and more forks. There were far more tunnels beneath this memorial hall than Xia Fei had first imagined, and even with his first rate memory, he was also beginning to feel lost!

“Calm down! I need to calm down!

“I haven’t heard that deep sound for quite some time. Does that mean that the owner of that voice has no desire to attack?

“Little Goldie is capable of entering Dark Space, and even if things went sour, they could still escape there, though I can imagine with Furball’s personality he would not opt to escape.”

Thought after thought flashed through Xia Fei’s mind. Despite the fact that he would usually kick Furball aside for no reason, during such critical moments it was obvious just how concerned Xia Fei was for Furball.

Several minutes passed, and Xia Fei felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his throat from anxiety! If he failed to locate his two pets for much longer, Xia Fei would definitely go mad!

It was at this moment when he saw two figures in the corner in front of him, one white and one gold. They were Furball and Little Goldie!

*Zoom*

Xia Fei went dashing over, grabbing each of them tight in one arm as he gushed with concern, “Are the both of you okay?!”

Little Goldie acted cute and snuggled up in Xia Fei’s embrace, while Furball had let out a long sigh. Evidently, these two had gotten lost!

Xia Fei was of course more than happy to find Furball and Little Goldie were well, but his eyebrows soon knit together. He looked around, and suddenly realized that he was lost as well…

…

Xia Fei lit a cigarette. He threw Zumi to the ground and took quite a few drags. He had been really nervous just now and had broken out in cold sweat, as if he had just engaged in a battle of life and death.

Furball leapt up to Xia Fei’s shoulder and continued to observe their surroundings with his beady eyes. He looked completely serious. Honestly, given how indolent this pet of his usually was, it was rather comical to see him like this now.

But Xia Fei knew very well why Furball was so tense. It was because danger was still all around them, and it had not passed yet. Furball made a clear distinction between life and battle, and the moment he sensed any danger, he would be two hundred percent committed to resolving it. As for living, of course he would try to enjoy it as much as possible, whenever he could.

Xia Fei pointed Nirvana right at Zumi and asked coldly, “Where is this place?!”

“Shhhhh!” Zumi’s face was green as he kept signaling Xia Fei to keep his voice low. “Keep it down! Please, I’m pleading with you all! We’re in the Broken Wing Sky Devil’s Tomb now, and you guys can’t be like this! The Broken Wing Sky Devil is alive! As for where are we, I have no idea, though I’m afraid we’re already somewhere really deep down in this tomb,” Zumi rasped hoarsely, speaking in a very soft voice, like he was afraid that any louder would wake Broken Wing Sky Devil up.

Xia Fei frowned, nonplussed, “What are you so afraid of? This is the Cenotaph of the Broken Wing Sky Devil, and only his clothes are buried here. Honestly, I’m a Dragoon too, an Devil Shadow Dragoon. I have a relationship with your Blueblood’s Zadin clan patriarch, Roderick. That person that came along with you beside Yuntian, he’s also a Zadin, Merry!”

Xia Fei began his psychological assault, first trying to calm Zumi down.

Zumi was still urging Xia Fei to keep his voice down as he answered, “Given how things have panned out, what use is it for you to tell me all this? None of this will matter if you and I don’t first make it out here alive!”

Xia Fei remarked, “I can damage this tomb and carve out a new path for us.”

Zumi panicked and desperately stopped Xia Fei.

Xia Fei was startled. “You’re a Peak Spiritualist, so what exactly has frightened you to such a degree?”

Zumi stared fixedly at Xia Fei, looking anguished. “It looks like you don’t understand the history of the Fiends at all. Have you ever thought why, despite the Bluebloods and the humans joining forces to wipe out the Fiends from every universe, why is it that the Cenotaph of this Broken Wing Sky Devil is still so well-maintained?”

Xia Fei froze as his gaze turned solemn.

“It was because even those Annihilators did not dare to touch this site! You’re looking down on the Fiends too much; they don’t believe in gods, but they believe in devils!

“The Broken Wing Sky Devil, Paletooth! The Gale Sky Devil, Medicinal Cauldron Prince! The Bitter Sea Sky Devil, Forgotten Vale, and the Calamity Sky Devil, Forgotten Trouble! Where we’re standing now is none other than the tomb of one of the Four Great Sky Devils, Lord Paletooth!”
