Chapter 1238 - Not Even God Can Help You Now
Panda Novel
Happy Duanwu Festival!
Blarrggh…
When Shen Gongpao read Chen Xiaobei’s message to him, he he almost puked blood all over the main hall’s ceiling.
He was so confident that he had everything estimated to perfection, so sure that the person that he had sent to kill Chen Xiaobei would be able to finish the job in one go without so much as a hiccup. He did not think that there was even a chance Chen Xiaobei would be able to fight back! But the fact was that, Chen Xiaobei had countered his attack so lethally!
Heavenly General Wang was beaten so badly he resembled a pig’s head. Was that not a tight, heavy slap to Shen Gongpao? The emoticon ‘<img src="https://engnovel.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/red-envelope-group-of-the-three-realms-chapter-1238-not-even-god-can-help-you-now.svg" alt="Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms - Chapter 1238 - Not Even God Can Help You Now" title="red-envelope-group-of-the-three-realms-chapter-1238-not-even-god-can-help-you-now"’ Chen Xiaobei attached in the message was a blatant, in-your-face mockery.
“How did this happen… This is atrocious… Too atrocious… I even swore to the Lord of Primordial Heaven that this plan would succeed… Why did this happen…” Shen Gongpao’s face had turned a shade greener, losing much of its color.
It was a small matter to lose face, but a major one to disappoint the Lord of Primordial Heaven.
His meticulously planned operation resulted in a double loss. He was left morose.
“Shishu Shen… What do you think we should do?” Yang Jian asked.
Sheng Gongpao ignored him, turning his piercing gaze to Heavenly General Wang. “Tell me! What the hell happened?! Tell me everything! I want to know exactly where it was that I miscalculated!”
“Black… Black saber…” The Heavenly General managed to mutter with much difficultly. “Chen Xiaobei has a very sharp black saber… It cut right through my armor… So my cultivation was reduced to its original state…”
“Black saber? What black saber? Why don’t I know anything about it?!” shouted Shen Gongpao.
“I don’t know much about it… but all I know is that there is a Dragon Qi on the saber… It was scornful and arrogant! Powerful! Its Sword’s Qi was enough to make me tremble in fear!”
Heavenly General Wang shuddered uneasily recollecting the black saber’s frightful characteristics.
“Dragon Qi? There is no such thing in the human realm!” Sheng Gongpao was pissed.
“There is!” Yang Jun spoked up. “During one of the Red Envelope Snatching Sessions, NeZha stole the Demonic Black Dragon Bone from his father! Chen Xiaobei has the Red Envelope!”
“Demonic Black Dragon Bone?” The wrinkles on Shen Gongpao’s forehead deepened. “Li Jing, that stupid fool! How could he let a little brat rob him of such a valuable gem! How mindless of him!”
Yang Jun kept quiet. Not bad-mouthing Le Jing behind his back was what a true gentleman would do.
“But even if he had the Demonic Black Dragon Bone, there was no way it could have strayed so far from my calculations! I have even looked into the future to set Chen Xiaobei up! How could there have been any cracks?!”
“That’s actually possible!” Yang Jun said, “With Chen Xiaobei’s limited abilities, it would be impossible that he forged the Demonic Black Dragon Bone! The black saber must have been made by the Prime of Tongtian himself! Other than the Ancestral Lord, no one else could look into the future of the Prime of Tongtian!”
Shen Gongpao gasped at the stunning revelation, “Are you saying that the black saber had taken on the Prime of Tongtian’s fate. Is that why I failed to see this outcome?!”
“That’s right!” Yang Jiann nodded. “The operation failed because of this black saber!”
“Black saber…” Sheng Gongpao computed for a moment and then exclaimed, “You really are exceptionally intelligent! I will just pin the failure of this operation on Tongtian! Then only will I be able to report my mission to the Lord of Primordial Heaven!”
Shen Gongpao had given his word to the Prime of Tongtian that this time the operation would be a confirmed success. Without a rational reason to justify the failure of his mission, Sheng Gongpao would be severely punished, if not, eternally remembered for his incompetence to complete a given task.
But thanks to Yang Jian, Shen Gongpao found the perfect excuse to get himself off the hook. He suddenly felt as if all the weight on his shoulders had fallen off.
“Shishu will be meeting the Lord of Primordial Heaven, right? Then I won’t keep you…” Yang Jian said.
“That’s right! I’ll go see him now and explain the issue of the black saber! We’ll need to come up with a better plan to take Chen Xiaobei down!”
Shen Gongpao immediately got up from his seat, bid Yang Jian farewell, and left the temple.
Shortly after, Yang Jian also left his seat and walked to Heavenly General Wang. “Let me take a look at your injuries…
“Thank you, Zhenjun… You are always so good to your subordinates…” Heavenly Guard Wang’s eyes were filled with emotion. “Before the mission… Shen Gongpao treated me very well… He promised me so many good things… But now when I am in trouble… He doesn’t care for me at all… A friend in need is a friend indeed… Zhenjun, you are a million times better than him!”
“You are only to speak these words to me! Once you step out these doors, you have to keep them only to yourself! Not a single word can be said!” warned Yang Jian.
“Yes… I know…” Heavenly General had been warned. “Are my injuries… treatable?”
“This ‘technique’ is very unusual! I’ve never seen anything like this before…”
Yang Jun proceeded to examine every skeletal joint of the Heavenly General. After a long and thoughtful silence, he announced, “If I’m right, this attack is the combination of Skeletal Queen’s Enneadic Skeletal Yin Claw and a traditional Chinese doctor’s healing technique to fix someone’s bone…”
Heavenly General Wang’s voice trembled, “Does that mean there’s no cure…”
“I wouldn’t dare attempt to fix you…. A small mistake could cripple you for the rest of your life…” Yang Jun sighed. “This Chen Xiaobei really made it difficult! I’ll bring in the Skeletal Queen and some Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors from the underworld… we’ll see if they have a way… I can only tell you to not despair but to also not to get your hopes up…”
Heavenly Guard Wang felt as if the world had stopped spinning.
Even with the help of Skeletal Queen and Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors, he was not allowed to be hopeful?!
It seemed that the only person who could solve this strange displacement of bones was Chen Xiaobei!
Other than him, even a god would find it difficult to fix this problem!
…
Mount Kunlun
At the temple on top of the mountain.
Zhao Qunfeng had already been standing in the hall for half an hour.
About seven or eight white-haired Daoists encircled him, inspecting his body for a good half hour.
“Forth Elder… This injury…” the oldest elder said, as he eyed the tails on Zhuo Qunfeng’s backside, and shook his head in frustration. “There is nothing we can do… Even if we ask Sifu to help us, it would be useless… You will have to decide what to do yourself…”
The Forth Elder that he addressed earlier was Zhuo Qunfeng’s grandfather, Zhuo Yaolong.
“Thank you, grand elder and all the other elders for coming. Since there is no cure, I won’t keep you then…”
Zhuo Yaolong then thanked them and bid them farewell.
All of them then proceeded to retreat from the temple.
“Grandfather… Grandfather you have to save me… I’m your only grandson… With my hands sticking out from my butt… I don’t have any dignity left to live… You will lose face too…”
Tears were rolling down Zhuo Qunfeng’s cheeks as he frantically begged the old man.
“You think I don’t want to help you?” Zhuo Yaolong said, “You know the core elders! Their Traditional Chinese Medicine skills are the best! If people like them cannot do anything, then there’s no use consulting your Grand Sifu!
“Then what should we do?…”
Zhuo Qunfeng felt like banging his head against the wall.
“You have offended someone really powerful this time!” Zhuo Qunfeng said. “Take the Black Desert manuscript map that I charted and go beg that elite… We can only hope that he will show you some mercy… That is the only option left…”
