Chapter 101 - Theia's Battle Prowess
Lu Sulan nodded her head at Can Ye before she stood beside Hestia and Theia. Can Ye thought for a moment before choosing to stand together with them. Although he had no idea who Lu Sulan and Jiu Shen were, he was familiar with Hestia and Theia since he had visited the store back then. Furthermore, Jiu Shen had also saved his life and he vowed to repay this huge favor.
Hu Xiandao called out his men and stood together with Lu Sulan and the others as well. Even if the odds were against them, he was still willing to offer his assistance, even if it means his death.
Theia took out her sword and stood in front of her team while glaring at the several dozen experts with cold eyes. She didn't feel intimidated even though they were severely outnumbered.
"I'll give all of you one last chance to scram out of my sight!" Theia's voice carried a commanding air as if she was a war goddess that disdained the mortal world.
Shao Fenhua and the others became enraged at the clear contempt in Theia's tone. It was obvious that they held the advantage in numbers, but the latter was still confident enough to tell them to scram. Such a bold young lady!
Shao Fenhua's eyes burned intensely as raging crimson flames slowly gushed out of his body. The people beside him immediately moved away from him for fear of being burnt to death.
The techniques of the Crimson Sun Sect was mainly comprised of flame arts and other fire manipulation manuals, so it came as no surprise that their people would practice such skills. Even so, Da Bi and the others still felt wary at Shao Fenhua's strength since they could still not see through his cultivation level at all! Either he was an 8th-rank Divine realm expert or he had a treasure that was capable of masking his strength!
"Brothers and sisters, charge with me!" Shao Fenhua led the charge since he was the strongest within their temporary alliance. They had more than ten 7th-rank Emperor realm experts on their side and several dozen others at the 6th-rank King realm. Such a strong line-up was enough to turn the Silver Wing Empire upside down, but to think that such a strong group was only here to attack a small store!
The temporary alliance of Shao Fenhua and the others prepared their attacks, but of course, they didn't want to expose much of their strength yet, since their enemies were not just the people from the store, but also everyone within their so-called alliance. They felt guarded and cautious that they advanced forward warily, making the atmosphere tense and unpredictable.
The two sides issued their loudest battle cries, but the voices of Lu Sulan's group was still overwhelmed by their counterpart. Nonetheless, their courage didn't dwindle as they fearlessly fought with fierce killing intent!
Since Theia was at the forefront of their group, many cultivators tried to attack her, but they could not even come closer to her before their bodies were slashed in half by a single sword strike. Decapitated bodies dropped on the ground with dull thuds. Theia's eyes remained indifferent and cold as she opened a bloody path, leaving corpses and mutilated body parts in her wake!
"Shit! This woman is a top expert! Her strength should have reached the 8th-rank Divine realm at the very least!"
Sheer terror enveloped the hearts of the temporary alliance of Shao Fenhua and the others. Just what kind of monster was this woman for her to effortlessly kill those strong cultivators as if they were merely ants?!
Lu Sulan and Hestia stood side by side as they reaped the lives of those who charged their way. Although they didn't reveal an awesome fighting prowess, the both of them remained untouched despite being attacked from all sides!
On the other hand, Hu Xiandao, Can Ye, and the other two barbarians were barely holding on, but they didn't want to back down especially after seeing Theia who was at the center of the enemies' formation, she was like a meat grinder slashing anyone that came her way!
Seeing that they held the advantage, Hu Xiandao leaped forward and swung his gigantic axe. He then shouted with a disdainful smile on his face. "Fools! Obediently stretch your necks for this lord!"
Suddenly, a piercing sword light streaked towards him, making Hu Xiandao feel threatened. Facing such an attack, he immediately lifted his axe to block it.
"Baang!"
"Lord Hu!"
"Lord Hu!"
Hu Xiandao took several steps back before he managed to stand firmly on the ground. He then glared at the incoming figure with a wary look on his face. "Was it you who attacked me?"
Cai Jun remained calm while facing Hu Xiandao's ferocious gaze. He then pointed his sword at the latter and replied. "Cripple, I will be your opponent!"
Hu Xiandao's eyes flickered with violent killing intent when he heard how Cai Jun had called him. He howled at the skies and before pouncing towards the latter while raising his gigantic axe.
"Lord Hu!" Can Ye and the two subordinates of Hu Xiandao called, but a cold streak of light prevented them from moving.
"Kekeke! You destroyed my Divine Weapon earlier, so you have to pay it with your life!" Mu Bai laughed hideously as he sprinted towards Can Ye and the other two. Following closely behind him was his corpse puppet that was roaring like a savage beast!
Can Ye frowned while calming his tensed heart. It was the first time he had encountered so many experts who were much stronger than him, so he was feeling a mixture of excitement and worry.
"The two of you, stand closely behind me!" Can Ye ordered in a grim voice.
The two barbarians nodded their heads, their faces covered with beads of sweat as they gripped their weapons tightly in their hands.
Shao Fenhua who was currently facing Theia didn't dare underestimate the latter. He had seen for himself how she had carved a path of blood that even he could hardly do. He was at the initial stage of the 8th-rank Divine realm, but facing Theia, he felt powerless. Luckily, there were more than four experts at the 7th-rank Emperor realm standing beside him, making him feel a bit assured.
"Young lady, if you step aside, our Crimson Sun Sect will be infinitely grateful. I can promise to give you ample rewards if you allow us to pass through." Shao Fenhua tried to use the name of his sect to intimidate Theia, but what he got was the latter's derisive smile.
"Foolish! Your whatever Sun Sect will soon be reduced to ashes for opposing my master. You don't even know what kind of being you have provoked." Theia muttered in a cold voice.
