1535 Saving Tamu and Preparing for Battle

The expression on Xia Fan, Pearl and Traveling Buddha’s faces turned into that of anger when Tamu spoke his tale. Never could any of them have imagined that Tamu’s story would be filled with such tragedy and sadness.

Tamu turned around. His long hair covered his back, but the moment he parted his locks, revealing his back muscles, everyone was stunned. Repulsive black crocodile-like bumps covered his back, his muscles there hard and lifeless.

Tamu let go of his hair and turned to look at Xia Fan again. He sighed deeply and said, “I’m now infected. In an effort to remove the powerful Demonic Energy and not infect Ashen Moon, the only thing I could do was use my body to absorb the Demonic Energy. Only by sacrificing myself would I be able to protect Ashen Moon.

“Nevertheless, not long after I was done with that work, the elders of the Four Great Clans found me. It was when I was already very weak, and on the verge of dying. After they found me, not only did they not help me, they had even used the opportunity to imprison me here in my frail state.

“Later I learned that they had discovered an amazing energy in my body, and wanted to use that energy to break through the Law Barrier.”

!!

“Outside this cage, you can see there’s eight metal columns. Those are the mechanisms that they use to extract the energy from my body. Every day at a set time, they come here and empty me of my energy, strengthening themselves, while also preventing me from recovering and escaping.”

As Tamu said this, he trembled, and seated himself on the ground. With a hoarse voice, he whispered, “Greed and desire has ruined this universe. I’m already infected; as long as they let me leave, Ashen Moon would not be in any danger, but I’m still being kept here by the elders of the Four Great Clans.

“Even though I’m trying my best to keep it in control, the Demonic Energy has still managed to leak out. If I’m not mistaken, the world outside must already be completely changed, living organisms all experiencing genetic mutations, beasts and insects are all huge, and smarter than before. The moment God Metropolis is invaded by Demonic Energy, the mutation will spread to the rest of Ashen Moon.”

Xia Fan was stunned. Pearl was breathing heavily, and Traveling Buddha’s expression was completely pale as he let out a crazed shout, “G*dd*mm*t! Just what are these old men up to!? They will end up hurting everyone! I really want to kill them!”

Who didn’t?! Xia Fan’s blood was boiling, seeing his father’s close comrade-in-arms tortured to such an extent. A wild killing intent was almost bursting out from his chest!

Tamu had opted to sacrifice himself, so as to prevent the infection from spreading. Yet these elders of the Four Great Clans had chosen to imprison Tamu for their own personal interests, mutilating this heroic warrior!

Just what sort of damned logic was that?!

They deserve death!

Xia Fan was so enraged that his entire body trembled. He darted right over and with his muscles, tore the bars off the cage Tamu was kept in.

“No, don’t! That will trigger the alarm!” Tamu yelled, trying to stop Xia Fan, but it was a pity that Xia Fan could casually move at a speed of four thousand meters per second, so there was no way Tamu could stop him in time.

*Boom!*

When the cage was destroyed, a red warning light began flashing. Xia Fan threw the cage harshly down onto the ground, before helping Tamu up to his feet.

“Leave me, all of you must leave immediately! I’m very weak right now, and have no energy to protect you all!” Tamu said anxiously.

As a companion of the Skywings and the Patriarch of The Chosens, Tamu was unbelievably strong, yet he had ended up being imprisoned by the elders of the Four Great Clans for many years, every day getting his energy drained to the point where he was extremely weak and completely incapable of resisting.

Hearing that, Traveling Buddha burst into laughter, and with a light brush of his finger over his spatial ring, a large amount of medicine appeared, creating a small hill of fruits and even energy crystals on the floor.

Tamu was slightly shocked, surprised to find Traveling Buddha had such a bountiful reserve.

Xia Fan also opened his spatial ring and retrieved plenty of energy crystals and medicine as well. There were over three hundred of them, among them hundreds of transparent Grade Nine Energy Crystals! The peak grade energy crystals shone brightly, like stars in a moonless sky, permeating the area with warm yet powerful energy pulses.

Xia Fan pointed to the valuable crystals and asked, “Uncle Tamu, is this enough?”

It turned out that Xia Fan originally had one hundred and nineteen Grade Nine Energy Crystals. When he opened the underground storage of the Dragon Clan to retrieve what they had stored, he also gained thousands of green and blue Grade Eight and Seven Energy Crystals respectively, on top of the transparent Grade Nine Energy Crystals inside!

Xia Fan chuckled, “If you can withstand the pressure, I even have Immortality Wine, brewed using Yggdragon’s blood. In any case, you need not worry. We had recently found ourselves sponsored by a rich tycoon, so we have plenty of reserves!”

Tamu was at first stunned, but soon nodded somberly. Actually, there was nothing strange about this. The smiling young man in front of him was the son of Xia Fan! Whatever Xia Fei could achieve, Xia Fan would also surely be able to do it!

“It’s enough. Just wait for a moment and let me replenish my energy. I’ve truly suffered greatly at the hands of those people!”

Tamu did not stand on ceremony, grabbing two Grade Nine Energy Crystals and quickly absorbing them. In the blink of an eye, those precious crystals dimmed, no longer containing any energy within. He tossed the spent crystals aside and then grabbed another two, repeating what he had just done. Slowly, a small pile of empty crystals begin to form.

His body was akin to a bottomless pit, unsatisfied no matter what. He must be at a very high rank, right?

Tamu only used the crystals and medicine, and rejected the use of Immortality Wine.

Xia Fan had consumed Grade Nine Energy Crystals while growing up, and his physical constitution was comparable to that of a god. However, he could at most withstand just three drops of Immortality Wine at one go, which just went to show how violent Yggdragon blood was. Even Tamu did not dare to try it lightly!

“It’s amazing, I can feel my past self coming back to me!” Tamu flexed his arms vigorously after consecutively consuming twenty Grade Nine Energy Crystals, as well as countless other lower grade ones. The skin all over his body glowed mutely, and even his cheeks turned rosy, his eyes shining brilliantly.

Still, Xia Fan was very aware that the Tamu of the past could never return. The severe infection on his back that had mutated him still remained, and no matter how much energy was poured into him, or whatever legendary treatment and medications were given, there was no way to make Tamu any better. He was now infected, a warrior who was under a demonic curse.

“Though my ancestors were once brothers to Ashen Dragon and Hidden Moon, right now, I want the Four Great Clans to die!” Traveling Buddha declared coldly, his arms folded over his chest. Though Little Old Buddha had a nonchalant personality, his sense of justice was very strong.

“Huuu!” Tamu let out a sigh and used a hand to ruffle his messy long hair. He then took out a knife and chopped his hair off.

The continuous intake of energy had turned him into a different man, his entire person looking far more energetic than before. Xia Fan handed him a battlesuit and a fairly well-made alloy battle saber. Tamu accepted the battlesuit but rejected the weapon, stating that he had no need for any such tools.

Putting on the dark green battlesuit, Tamu raised his head and tensed the muscles all over his body. He stood tall and straight like a spear as he said firmly, “I once fought side by side with your father, and now I get to stand beside you! It is truly an honor!

“Do you know, aside from God, your father is the one I admire the most? Compared to the looseness that the others in the Skywing Clan demonstrated, your father was slightly serious as the Clan Patriarch, but he is without a doubt a true man!

“I will never forget when he and his Skywing brethren shouted out their famous slogan, even I would get chills. To think there would be such a maniacal and brave group of people out there in the world? From that day on, me and my clan decided that we would follow them until the day we die.”

Xia Fan frowned. Though his last name was Xia, he had been wandering ever since the day he was born, and had never met any of his family. He basically had no understanding of the matters pertaining to his clan.

Xia Fan turned to Pearl and asked, nonplussed, “What slogan?”

Pearl smiled. “‘Skywing’s business! Those uninvolved can scram!’”
