Chapter 379: Ex-Immortals Captured! (2/2)
…
Meanwhile, Zhao Bao gazed at Lu Fengxian, who had been captured right under his nose.
Like Ling Cao, Zhao Bao couldn't head out and confront the 9th-stage archer since he was the only 8th-stage cultivator in the city. Had he left, the other 8th-stage cultivators would have shown up and raided Siren City, enslaving the other girls and beastmen in the process.
”Haiz. We lost Lu Fengxian.”
Zhao Bao shook his head, giving up on the talented youth.
Fogan, Mao Xueyan, and others also sighed as they couldn't do anything against Huang Hansheng. They could only look at Lu Fengxian, bidding farewell with their expression and their eyes.
On the other hand, Ma Moxi, who had rushed out to the city wall when he sensed Ling Tianlong and Huang Hansheng earlier, gazed at the departing group with a wide grin.
Tang Fan, who had been mounting an anti-material rifle, frowned at his friend when he noticed the smile.
”Why are you smiling? Our strongest fighter has been captured!”
Ma Moxi chuckled, ”Ah, you probably don't know. That guy can't be tamed or killed that easily. We haven't seen his true form yet.”
”Huh? I don't understand.”
”Let's say, his foundation is far stronger than me and Miaomiao. That guy's cultivation speed is also… I can't explain. I just can't come out with the right words…” Ma Moxi shrugged. He just knew that Lu Fengxian would get out of this predicament on his own without their help.
”???”
Tang Fan still didn't get it. He scratched his head for a moment.
Then, Tang Fan changed the subject, ”By the way, when will elder Jia Shan's group and Mao Miaomiao return? We need their help right now.”
”Oh, them?” Ma Moxi closed his eyes and sighed, ”The elder's group won't be coming back soon since they're busy. As for Mao Miaomiao, he said he will show up as soon as he finishes his special training or something.”
”Huh?”
”I know how you feel. Forget about them for now. We are going to snipe those nascent soul cultivators, one at a time. Save the bullets for them. Don't waste it on 6th-stage or weaker soldiers.”
Tang Fan scratched his head with both hands as he still didn't understand his friend.
”Fine. I don't care anymore. Whether we live or we die, my life is in your hands! I trust you, Moxi!”
”Hahaha. Thanks.”
…
After Huang Hansheng had interfered with the battle between Mount Hua Sect and Siren City, the alliance army withdrew and celebrated, thinking they had captured the enemy's strongest fighter.
Yuan Shaoqing sent an invitation to Ling Cao as a guest of honor. However, the latter had already left the camp with the surviving elders and their disciples, including Ling Tianlong's girlfriend.
Yuan Shaoqing was disappointed. He failed to get his hands on Ling Du.
Still, Ling Tianlong had been captured by Huang Hansheng, which was a piece of good news. He could always kill him whenever he wanted now.
At the party, many nascent soul cultivators from various top clans gave Yuan Shaoqing a toast.
”Congratulations, Lord Yuan. Not only have we captured their enemy's top expert, but the vanguard forces have also destroyed their concealment and defensive arrays. Even if they can repair it, we have already learned everything inside the city. Here's a toast for you!”
”That's right, Lord Yuan. We have learned about their number, and we have also discovered several heavenly beauties and rare beasts within the city. If we can capture the city, those women and exotic pets will become yours for sure. Congratulations in advance!”
”Their weapons might be mysterious and powerful, but they are no match against Senior Huang. Let's have a toast for Senior Huang and Lord Yuan!”
”Cheers!”
The morale of Yuan Shaoqing was at its all-time high despite the loss of Mount Hua Sect's men and several volunteer soldiers.
Yuan Shaoqing couldn't stop smiling as well.
As they were partying, Liu Xuande and his two sworn brothers showed up and gave Yuan Shaoqing a toast as well. However, he obnoxiously smiled and provoked everybody here.
”How nice of you to extend your feet and allow these peasants to bootlick you until your feet are wetter than the world's sluttiest prostitute's pussy. As a humble cultivator from the Holy Land, I'm amazed by Aves Continent's culture. Is everyone an attention whore like you, Lord Yuan?”
The sudden insult of Liu Xuande silenced the entire banquet. All musicians and attending people stopped talking but looking at the agent from the Holy Land.
Yuan Shaoqing widened his eyes while his face flushed red. He stood up and bellowed, ”Liu Xuande! Are you here to pick a fight!?”
Yan Liang and Wen Chou summoned their heaven-grade weapons from their spatial rings. Meanwhile, Guan Yincheng and Zhang Yide behind [Liu Bei] also took out their polearms.
Four 8th-stage cultivators unleashed their soul Qi, preparing for an all-out battle.
