CHAPTER 605: 448, LIAN YI IN DESPAIR, XU GU TAKES ACTION

"Good technique, but still far inferior to me!"

The swordsman laughed heartily, seemingly relaxed, and even somewhat disdainful towards the adversary.

The opponent’s strength was just too weak.

He could easily cope with it.

His sword drawn from its scabbard, its light illuminating the sky, it seemed as though space itself was cleaved in two.

However,

Hardly moments after their clash began, the swordsman found himself at a disadvantage.

"How can this be!" The swordsman was shocked beyond belief.

He gazed at Chi Hongtong with utter astonishment.

The enemy’s offensive, seemingly not strong, exerted a pressure that was unimaginably formidable.

"You actually hid your aura and strength!" The swordsman struggled even harder, desperately resisting.

But in the next instant, his chest was pierced by Chi Hongtong’s spear, sending him flying hundreds of miles back, blood spraying and utterly disheveled.

"With your level of skill, you dare play the hero to save the beauty? It’s embarrassing just to watch."

Chi Hongtong’s eyes were filled with contempt.

"To death with you! Fire at them and suppress them at all costs!"

The swordsman’s face flushed red with burning rage, humiliated into fury.

"How dare you primitives from the Secret Realm behave so brazenly before us!"

"Fire!"

Warriors from the Sword-man Clan’s fleet also felt an immense rage, ready to open fire and suppress the Thunder Spirit Clan warriors on the field.

Even at the cost of great losses.

However, at the same moment, Chi Hongtong, holding the Divine Spear aloft, burst forth with an unimaginably terrifying aura.

Impossibly, she had almost reached the level of an Upper King.

This Divine Spear was inherently a Divine Artifact!

And Chi Hongtong was a Half-step Upper King.

Joining the two, matching an Upper King was naturally not an issue.

"How can this be! An Upper King?" Everyone on the Sword-man Clan fleet was suddenly pale, their eyes trembling with the realization of the predicament.

The swordsman’s face turned even more alarmed, filled with inconceivable terror.

They never expected the Thunder Spirit Clan to field such a powerful fighter!

They couldn’t even imagine the Thunder Spirit Clan could produce such a formidable individual!

Because, in the Divine Domain Continent’s outside world, an Upper King could sit atop a major power!

They were absolutely titanic figures!

Even their Sword-man Clan, so high-profile, only publicly had one Upper King.

The Saintess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan tensed up, her heart raised to her throat.

She was extremely nervous.

Because of her unparalleled beauty, nearly all the male Thunder Spirits’ gazes were fixed on her.

She had wanted to sneak away quietly.

But she was blocked by several auras, sealing off all her escape paths.

She could even sense a determination in their actions—that even if they let the Sword-man Clan fleet and the swordsman escape, they could not let her go.

"This..."

She was now somewhat regretful.

She shouldn’t have underestimated the Thunder Spirit Clan, which caused her such a great trouble.

It’s possible she might actually meet her demise here.

She wouldn’t accept captivity or humiliation; she’d rather die here.

"Boss, you handle that guy, and this woman, I’m claiming her," the ugly strong man beside Chi Hongtong roared.

It was spine-chilling.

It also made Lian Yi feel nauseated, her skin crawling with goosebumps.

It was too terrifying.

"The Thunder Spirit Clan, do you really wish to offend our Sword-man Clan!?"

The swordsman’s face looked awful, today might not end well, it was going to be a messy fight.

He could only threaten using the name of the Sword-man Clan!

"Sword-man Clan? What’s that? First thing when we return, we’ll exterminate the Sword-man Clan!"

Chi Hongtong huffed coldly.

Without wasting more words, she struck directly at the entire fleet.

Ready to face off against a whole fleet by herself!

Meanwhile, the remaining Thunder Spirit Clan warriors surged towards Lian Yi.

"Damn it! You’re all insane! Every single one of you!" The swordsman looked ghastly, his morning’s script wasn’t supposed to go like this!

Lian Yi, with a deep concentration, joined the fray.

Graceful as ever, like a Qingqiu fox leaping in the snow, a peerless beauty twirling in a dance.

But her lethality was astounding.

Her destructive power was beyond imagination.

Merely upon contact, the Thunder Spirit Clan warriors’ blades and shields shattered and fell apart.

However, there were just too many opponents.

And they had already prepared an ambush, setting up a Field here.

The outcome won’t hold any big surprises.

"Find a way to escape! Forget about that bitch Lian Yi!"

The Sword-man Clan all bleed inwardly.

For under the assault of Chi Hongtong, their fleet had begun to diminish, with two warships already blasted into oblivion!

At this rate, his entire fortune would be lost!

Escape was the only option!

"..." Hearing Sword-man Clan’s words, Lian Yi’s head was swimming in frustration, realizing this guy was unreliable, but his actions were more despicable than she imagined.

"Think you can leave? Can you really get away?"

"Activate the Field!"

"Today, no prey shall escape!"

Chi Hongtong frowned slightly as she pressed a palm towards the void.

A colossal barrier emerged.

Completely sealing off all the escape routes of the Sword-man Clan’s fleet.

"Hmm?!"

On board the fleet, all the powerful beings’ faces turned pale, their hearts pounding violently, panic setting in.

"Activate the Energy Shield!

"I’ve already called for reinforcements! I have a very good relationship with the Divine Son Su Ye, he will definitely come back to save us!"

Sword-man Clan gritted his teeth and activated the Energy Shield across the entire fleet.

Lian Yi had also intended to board the ship.

But, she was directly attacked by cannon fire.

Not allowing her to board.

The reason was simple. The Sword-man Clan had seen that the male Thunder Spirits had their eyes fixated on Lian Yi. Even at the cost of their lives, they sought to keep Lian Yi behind.

The Sword-man Clan still wanted to escape, naturally he wouldn’t bring Lian Yi along.

Compared to his own life, what was one woman? With his handsome and striking appearance, where couldn’t he snag a beautiful woman?

"..."

Lian Yi’s face darkened again.

The Sword-man Clan’s unreliability had far exceeded her expectations.

Did he really think the fleet’s shabby Energy Shield could fend off the enemy? Would the Divine Son of the Ancient Church, Su Ye, come to rescue you?

Under these circumstances, unity was the best option.

"Hahaha, my enemies are such pushovers, this hunt is hardly raising any excitement for me," Chi Hongtong laughed out loud when she saw this.

"Encircle this fleet, wait for people from other tribes to join, then breach their Defense.

"This girl, whoever captures her will have her!"

As Chi Hongtong’s words fell, countless male Thunder Spirit Clan went mad.

They began to throw themselves towards Lian Yi in a craze.

Ice frosted over Lian Yi’s pretty face as she bit back, contending against the Thunder Spirit Clan warriors before her.

"Sorry, Miss Lian Yi. We didn’t intentionally isolate you outside, the one responsible for the Energy Shield is an intern. I’ve already severely reprimanded him.

"Could you... escape to some distant place, to lure away the Thunder Spirit Clan warriors here?! We will attempt to break free, and if we do, we will rescue you as well."

Sword-man Clan sent this message to Lian Yi.

"Get lost!"

Lian Yi erupted in anger.

Fury blazing.

There was still a chance for cooperation, a chance to escape.

Yet this imbecile had self-sabotaged his way to death.

She had no more expectations for this fool, and yet he was utterly unaware of his own ineptitude.

So repulsive it made her want to vomit.

"Hahaha! Forget that unreliable piece of trash! Submit to me, I am dependable, I’ll make sure you experience ecstasy!" laughed Yan Hu. He was the ugly and robust man, eyeing Lian Yi as if he had already captured her and was taking her into his harem.

"Damn it!"

Lian Yi made her move, but was completely suppressed and pushed back.

She was about to be captured.

"Is there really no way out?"

Lian Yi bit her lip hard, her heart still touched by the thought of death.

She could not allow herself to be captured, and then defiled!

Her power had begun to go berserk, intending to take her enemies down with her.

Even in death, she was determined to take a few of them with her!

"In my presence, you still wish to die?" Chi Hongtong noticed everything; her Divine Spear came out and actually sealed all of Lian Yi’s energy.

Instantly, Lian Yi was powerless to resist.

"No!"

Lian Yi fell into complete despair, tears streaming down her face.

She had already envisioned her own ending.

But just then, an indifferent voice rang out.

"It’s quite lively here."
