Chapter 196 - Reinforcements from Thousands of Kilometers Away (2/2)

There were even cultivators seen from a shut-off country like North Korea. The island became a rowdy place in no time.

It was especially so given all of them were fighters serving their respective governments, and a lot of them had clashed with each other more than once in the past.

No one knew what kind of agreement was reached by all those governments, but it was quite a surprise that they all actually decided to just take Huaxia out of the picture.

Both the Dragon and Ming Yueyao were ambushed. A good number of their men were lost, and both of them had only been able to escape alive due to their powers as Invincible Vajras.

But then again, they were in shambles and trapped on the island at present.

Things were worse than they were several days ago. It was only the nations near that island in the Pacific Ocean that were going at each other.

Things had spiraled out of control since then, with cultivators from all over the world making it to that island at present one way or another.

Those two chiefs were unable to even escape now.

That was what prompted them to seek reinforcements from outside.

“We only received an SOS from Chief Dragon about half a day ago, and we’ve lost contact with him since,” Yun Sheng added.

“We have given the case a lot of thought, and we came to the conclusion that only you would be able to save Chief Dragon, Mr. Lu!”

Yun Sheng went to his knees and pleaded, “Please save our chief, Mr. Lu!”

“Get up, please.”

Lu Xuan lifted Yun Sheng up with his Spiritual Qi right away and continued, “I’m heading out to that island all the same anyway. Rest assured, I’ll get them both out.”

“Thank you, Mr. Lu. We’ve got the chopper ready, and we can get you to the Eastern Sea right away. But, being able to get on that island or not is up to you, Mr. Lu,” Yun Sheng said.

“What happened?” Lu Xuan asked.

Yun Sheng continued, “Fleets from all nations are getting close to Penglai Island under the pretense of military exercises, especially the Seventh Fleet of the US Navy, which is now facing off against our own East Sea Fleet. We’ve placed a lockdown on all news regarding all the happenings from the common folks, or we risk having a world war break out.”

Lu Xuan replied, “I see.”

He bid his family farewell and headed to Lu Province. He rode another helicopter out to the ocean right away.

It was already midnight by the time he got there, and he was finally able to catch a glimpse of Penglai Island. Despite being out in the middle of the ocean, the island looked dazzlingly bright.

The place looked as if it was an island made of lapis lazuli, with the actual material of the island’s makeup being totally unknown, and said material enabled the place to glow in the dark of night.

Lu Xuan’s Delusion-breaker Eyes made it so that the place appeared as clear and bright as it was during the daytime, despite it being the middle of the night.

He was able to see from afar that several fleets were closing in on the island from all directions, making the waters very congested.

The warships looked like tiny islands on their own.

The flags on those ships indicated that they were mostly from four powerful countries—Huaxia, the USA, Japan, and South Korea. They were also fleets from other smaller countries, but none were able to compare to those four, be it in terms of numbers or build.

Among those four, it was clear that the USA, Japan, and South Korea were allies, and Huaxia was facing off against all three alone.

A surface-to-air missile was launched, zipping past from afar without warning before Lu Xuan was able to get a closer look at things.
