#95 - The War Ends
Around the palace, a massive formation was interwoven, with countless runes flashing, its aura astonishing.
“Fire!”
Xiao Yutang waved his hand, and the three warships immediately lit up with beams of fire. Cannons fired simultaneously, continuously bombarding the formation, creating deafening roars that shook the vast earth.
However, the palace's formation was extremely powerful. Even when faced with the dense firepower of the three warships, it remained motionless, as solid as a rock.
Moreover, the palace was very quiet, with its gates tightly closed, and not a single figure could be seen.
“Could it be that they really escaped through the secret passage?”
Xiao Yutang's heart suddenly sank. He immediately summoned a subordinate and ordered him to lead another 500,000 troops to the Misty Mountains at full speed!
“Brother Xiao, it’s your turn.”
Seeing that the three warships couldn't break the palace's grand formation, a voice came from the warship of the Great Yun Dynasty.
Xiao Yutang nodded, a hint of pain flashing in his eyes. He took out a silver shuttle-shaped magic weapon from his storage ring.
Whoosh!
Xiao Yutang's entire body surged with magical power, pouring it into the magic weapon without reservation.
The shuttle-shaped magic weapon emitted a sound of tearing through the air, instantly slamming into the palace's grand formation, creating a muffled roar.
Under the gaze of over a million people, the shuttle-shaped magic weapon actually obliterated a large area of runes, paralyzing part of the formation patterns, and soon pierced through the grand formation, opening a gap!
Correspondingly, the light of the shuttle-shaped magic weapon itself continued to dim, beginning to become blurred and illusory.
“Move!”
Xiao Yutang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he stepped into the void, rushing towards the palace like lightning!
At the same time, a total of nine Lord Realm experts from the three dynasties set out together, heading towards the palace!
“Juniors,
Impudence!!”
Just as they rushed into the palace, a thunderous roar suddenly rang out!
In the deepest part of the palace, a golden sword aura slashed across the sky, like lightning piercing through the sky, and like a vast ocean striking the heavens, carrying terrifying killing intent!
“Not good!”
“This power… is a Half-Saint expert!”
Xiao Yutang and the others all had drastic changes in expression. They immediately raised the weapons in their hands, doing their utmost to defend against this sword together.
Bang!!
In an instant, this place emitted an earth-shattering roar. Heaven and earth violently shook, and more than half of the nine Lord Realm experts were sent flying on the spot, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.
An old man with a hunched and emaciated body, wearing a dragon robe, walked out step by step from the deepest part of the palace.
He was truly too old, his body shriveled, like skin and bones, covered in white spots, clearly with half his body already in the ground, yet he still exuded a majestic saintly aura!
“Xia Yuanwu! You’re actually still alive?”
Xiao Yutang's pupils suddenly constricted, truly shocked!
Xia Yuanwu raised his head, his old and cloudy eyes, at this moment, were flowing with dazzling golden light, making it impossible to look directly at them!
“Now, get out of the Heavenly Spirit Dynasty immediately, and I will spare you from death.”
“Otherwise, all of you will be left here forever!”
Xia Yuanwu spoke coldly, his aged voice carrying terrifying killing intent, enough to make people tremble!
Xiao Yutang didn't speak, only narrowed his eyes and stared at Xia Yuanwu.
After a long while, he suddenly grinned, the fear and apprehension in his eyes completely disappearing!
“The aura of death on your body can no longer be suppressed, you old thing!”
“I don’t know what you’re relying on to prolong your life until now, but I can be sure that the sword just now has already consumed most of your remaining strength.”
“If you release a few more swords, we won’t even need to take action, you yourself will die from exhaustion!”
Xiao Yutang said with a sneer.
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding Lord Realm experts breathed a sigh of relief, and confident smiles returned to their faces.
If Xia Yuanwu was a Half-Saint in normal condition, they would definitely turn around and run without saying a word!
But Xia Yuanwu was just a dying Half-Saint, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
“So what?”
Xia Yuanwu's expression was calm and indifferent, and he said: “Even if I can only release a few more swords, it's still easy to kill a few of you before I die. Who among you is willing to die with me?!”
Clang—
As Xia Yuanwu's voice fell, the golden magic sword in his hand emitted a clear sword cry, and the blazing sword light was like the majestic power of the heavens, shaking the entire palace!
—
“Let’s go, this battle is already over.”
Su Chen suddenly spoke, maneuvering the Lightning Shuttle and turning to leave.
“Young Master, hasn’t the fight not finished yet?”
Qing Ling was stunned for a moment.
Su Chen said: “The people of the royal family and the Heavenly Spirit Academy have already escaped the royal capital through the secret passage, leaving only a Half-Saint ancestor to stall for time.”
“Secret passage… Could it be that the royal family really established a secret base in the Misty Mountains?”
Qing Ling became even more surprised.
She originally thought that Su Chen was lying to Xiao Yutang, but she didn't expect that Su Chen actually knew such a major secret of the royal family!
At this moment, she felt that Su Chen was even more mysterious and unpredictable, as if there were no secrets under the heavens that he didn't know!
“Naturally, it’s not the Misty Mountains, but another direction.”
Su Chen shook his head.
The Lightning Shuttle burst out with astonishing speed, quickly leaving the royal capital.
Tang Chuan in the high altitude frowned,
But considering that Uncle Chen’s injuries had not yet healed, he suppressed the killing intent in his heart.
Water Moon Mountain.
This place was two thousand miles away from the royal capital, located in a remote area, with barren primitive forests everywhere.
In one of the large mountains, thousands upon thousands of people quietly rushed out of the interconnected caves.
One cloud ship after another slowly rose from the ground, and these people quickly rushed onto the cloud ships, preparing to escape from this place.
Just then, the Lightning Shuttle arrived with a rumble!
“Su Chen!?”
After seeing the person on the Lightning Shuttle, Xia Cang's expression suddenly sank, and the killing intent in his eyes soared!
The group of royal family members and Heavenly Spirit Academy martial artists were also greatly shocked, and immediately revealed vigilant gazes.
“Su Zhan is not here, and you actually dare to appear!”
“I really don’t know who gave you the courage!”
Xia Cang glanced around, confirming that there were no other pursuers besides Su Chen and his companions. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then revealed a hideous smile!
Su Chen ignored him, his gaze passing over Xia Cang and landing on another cloud ship.
A woman wearing a snow-white long dress, with a graceful figure, and a petite and exquisite girl, had very complicated expressions at this moment, and were looking at Su Chen.
