Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 290 Three Rotting Corpses, The Wang Family's Fate

Outside the Dragon Transformation Pool, three even more powerful auras appeared, accompanied by a decaying aura. They seemed to be corpses that had just crawled out of an ancient tomb, carrying endless twilight with them.

Even the dozen or so powerful figures outside the city frowned slightly and avoided the area.

"Hehe, little guys, your movements aren't good enough."

A ghostly voice rang out, its origin indistinguishable, seemingly coming from all directions, making its location impossible to pinpoint.

A dozen or so powerful figures sensed this aura and frowned.

This aura is very strange, faintly surpassing the realm of a great being, yet it carries a strong sense of decay. It doesn't seem like a dying person, but rather like an old monster that has already died.

"Senior He Fang, please come forward and meet me."

One of the powerful figures hidden in the shadows spoke up.

"Heh, you're hardly a senior, just a dying man," a ghostly voice echoed.

The group immediately followed the sound, but when they saw the three ghostly figures, they found that the three figures had already arrived in front of the ancient saint formation and were breaking the ancient saint formation.

The three people looked bizarre, hunched over like rotten wood. Their bodies were even rotting, pitted and scarred, revealing black, decaying flesh inside. Some of their skin was hanging on their bones, oozing black blood, making them look exceptionally strange and eerie.

They were like three rotting corpses that had just escaped from their graves, now appearing so openly before everyone.

"Hehehe, you guys just watch from outside and see how we break the ancient saint's formation," one of the corpses said.

Only then did they notice that the corpse no longer had a mouth, and everything it said was transmitted through divine thought.

Although the corpses appeared to be in very poor physical condition, with their flesh and internal organs decayed, their divine sense was exceptionally strong, like a golden sun that even powerful beings found dazzling and dared not look directly at.

"A rotting corpse crawling out of a grave..." Ye Fan's face turned ugly.

Why is it so difficult for the God King to revive? All sorts of demons and monsters have come out.

The presence of more than a dozen powerful figures was already enough to draw attention, but above the Dragon Transformation Pool, two kings were using an array to seize the Jiang family's ultimate imperial weapon.

Now, three more rotting corpses, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, have crawled out, still carrying immense malice.

"Heh, rotting corpses?" one of the rotting corpses sneered upon hearing this.

"We have to thank the Jiang family's God King for this. If the Jiang family's God King hadn't driven the three of us brothers to the brink of despair back then, we probably wouldn't have accidentally eaten that divine medicine that left us wishing for death..."

"You've become this wretched state entirely thanks to your Jiang family's God King!"

"But who would have thought that the God King would be in danger? We have finally gotten our chance!"

"Enter the Dragon Transformation Pool! Slay the God King! Bathe in his divine blood! Seize his divine treasures! Extend our lives by another thousand years!"

Three rotting corpses, neither human nor ghost, roared.

Hearing their words, both the powerful beings inside the Dragon Transformation Pool and those outside were shocked.

These three inhuman, ghostly corpses were actually from the same era as the Jiang family's God King!
Roughly estimated, they have lived for at least several thousand years!
"Seniors, are you confident you can break through this great formation?" a powerful figure asked.

"Hehe, if even we can't break this great formation, then you're even more helpless! While we're breaking the formation, you should quickly perfect that Ancient Saint Killing Formation. It won't be long before it comes in handy!" The rotting corpse said with a cold laugh.

The other dozen or so powerful figures nodded in agreement. They didn't waste any more time on the ancient saint formation and instead continued to set up the ancient saint killing formation.

Wang Family Stone Archway.

Although Wang Teng decided to participate, he didn't make a move. He simply looked at the patriarch of the Wang family. "Understood! I'll go then!" the patriarch of the Wang family said.

He took the Heavenly Emperor's Holy Sword from Wang Teng and stepped into the void.

Soon, a furious roar came from above the Dragon Transformation Pool.

"The Kitahara Royal Family! How dare you step onto this stage!"

The Shadow King roared, denouncing the royal family.

As a sudden and intense battle ensued, the fog and shadows above were dispelled, and everyone saw the newly emerged fourth king.

The opponent wielded a golden holy sword, and when he unleashed it at full power, it exuded a pressure that even made a king feel his heart tremble. After the sword struck down, some of the array patterns beneath the Shadow King's feet shattered.

Everyone knew this longsword all too well.

Isn't this Wang Teng's Heavenly Emperor Holy Sword?

Wang Teng has used this longsword in public more than once, so everyone knows who wields it.
Even though the newly appeared king did not actively reveal his identity, the longsword in his hand alone was enough to explain everything.

"What makes you think I'm from the Wang family of Beiyuan?!" the Wang family's patriarch roared.

"Isn't the holy sword in your hand enough proof of your identity?" the Shadow King roared.

"I found it!" the Wang family's patriarch roared, and at the same time, he once again swung the Heavenly Emperor Holy Sword in his hand. A bright sword light flashed, enough to cleave the void and sever all connections between heaven and earth.

With this sword strike, many of the array patterns beneath the Shadow King's feet shattered once more.

"The Wang family! Aren't you afraid of being punished?" another king shouted from the shadows.

"Hahahaha, settle scores with the Wang family? I couldn't be happier! It'll be perfect for letting the Jiang family see which powerful figure or king is targeting them!" The Wang family's patriarch sneered.

Although only one member of the Wang family has met his end, no one knows the attitudes of the other members of the Wang family, especially Wang Teng.

If Wang Teng were to openly intervene, then the ancient families and holy lands that support him would inevitably respond in kind.

However, Wang Teng has not made any moves yet, which is what everyone is curious about.

What exactly is Wang Teng thinking?

The Holy Lord of the Ji family has even made preparations!

The karmic ties between the Ji family and Wang Teng are deepening. The Ji family has made many efforts to get closer to Wang Teng. If Wang Teng chooses to step in, the Ji family will naturally follow suit, thus gaining the favor of both Wang Teng and the ancient Jiang family.

There are other forces also waiting for Wang Teng's choice.

He was able to withstand a powerful attack upon first entering the Dragon Transformation Realm, and he was also the number one in his generation in terms of both realm and combat power, wielding unprecedented power over time.

To put it bluntly, even if such a person doesn't become a great emperor in the future, but merely grows to the level of a powerful being, he will still be a guardian deity of a force.

Even if you befriend him, the benefits you receive from asking him for help in crucial moments are extraordinary.

Therefore, it wasn't just the Ji family that was waiting.

However, Wang Teng remained calm and waited patiently in the Wang family's stone archway, leaving people wondering whether he was waiting for an opportunity or intimidating others in the shadows.

P.S.: I've been staying with my partner these past few days, so I can only write a little bit each day when I have a spare moment. I'll be back tomorrow, and the update schedule should be more consistent the day after.
