Chapter 493: Attacking the Base (2/2)

What he loved about her was her personality. It was not only her appearance, and while he would be sad if she had forgotten him, he would not be devastated.

He would stay by her side, protect her, and love her. But his worst fear was if she rejected him; then, he did not know what to do.

While Lan was deep in his own conflicting thoughts, Xue Wei and the others were getting ready to set out. Seeing that they were preparing to leave, Lan let go of his thoughts. What would happen would happen, and he could not change it.

Coming to this conclusion, it was as if a big stone had been lifted from his shoulders, and a breezy smile sprung upon his lips.

Lan had wanted to be the one to kill the people in the base if that meant that the Ghost Realm would open. However, he had previously tried this approach, and while the Ghost Realm opened, he had no possibility of entering it.

This was because he was not the Rule Breaker. To enter, the Rule Breaker had to be the one who killed the people, so Lan was relieved that Xue Wei was so powerful.

They also needed to kill the people at a rapid pace, which was why he had wanted the King Ranked dealt with before they moved on to the base.

The base was now only comprised of Saints and lower-ranked experts, and they stood no chance against Xue Wei. As long as his stamina lasted, he would be an unstoppable death god who came to reap lives.

The group stepped out of the cave and made their way towards the base. They did not hide their tracks or slow down; no experts had entered the forest as the King ranked leader had told them to leave the hunt to him.

When they exited the forest, they found the base was in lockdown, but it was not difficult to break it open. While Lan was unable to be the one who killed the people, he was still capable of helping them deal with the massive walls.

All he did was to glance at the walls, and they came crumbling down. The soldiers who had been standing on top were suddenly thrown into disarray, and the ones within the base became alerted to the approaching danger.

Lan waved his hand, and a big translucent dome covered the whole base. No one would be able to flee; the only fate that awaited them was death.

While most of the soldiers had decided to fight, a small group had indeed thought of fleeing. Not because they were afraid of Xue Wei and the others, but because they feared Lan.

Everyone could sense Xue Wei and his companions, but Lan was only visible when one looked at him. This gave them all a sense of dread; no one doubted his strength.

Scared, they all felt their hearts tremble, but some of them were loyal soldiers. They would rather die fighting than submit, and a group of them charged straight at Xue Wei with their weapons raised high.
