Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos

Chapter 442 - 191: Horizontal Refining of Tendons and Bones, Assassination_2

As they approached Earth Yang Peak, Lingtong said to Zhu Ji.

"Guii Yidao, that backstabbing creature, though we are of different races, we are living creatures nurtured by the same land. He actually dared to defect to the Lord and harm our National Guardian General. Once I catch him, I’ll strip him of skin and sinew, leaving him unable to live or die."

Dragon Slayer General was grinding his teeth in hatred against Guii Yidao.

The National Guardian General was his mentor; they were like father and son.

He swore that he would cut down the Demon Lord himself to console his master’s spirit.

"What if the Demon Lord brings reinforcements? Our spies surrounding the Demon Lord seem to have all been eliminated by him! We can’t ascertain the Demon Lord’s true situation." Lingtong was still worried about this possibility.

Several forces had stationed spies around Yi Tian’s territory, even some proficient in stealth skills.

They were all discovered by Eastsea Falcon and Second Child, who, in coordination with the Yin Yang Giant Panda, took them out one by one.

The indigenous people didn’t dare to station an early-stage S-level watcher near Yi Tian’s territory.

The loss of minor minions was nothing, but an S-level powerhouse was a cornerstone for any nation. What’s more, some Diamond Tribes had only one S-level powerhouse to hold the fort.

"If they come, all the better! We’ve maintained our peak state all along. Once the Lord appears, I’ll immediately activate the No-fly Talisman, giving him no chance to escape." Zhu Ji opened his hand then clenched a fist, certain of victory.

"Great General, the Lord has stolen the nation’s Supreme Treasure, the Cloud Void Stone. I suggest deploying spies, scattering around, always ready to guard against unexpected events."

Golden Lion General Lingtong, although looking brawny, was sharp-minded. He was considering many possibilities and didn’t want Zhu Ji to be blinded by hatred, so he spoke up to remind him.

"Golden Lion General, you’re overthinking! Even if the Lord has the Cloud Void Stone, can he see the future and know we’re here? The State Preceptor, using the power of the altar, also finds such predictions hard to make." Zhu Ji’s face turned stern, feeling that Lingtong was questioning him.

"The Great General speaks most wisely!"

Lingtong dared not say more, but he stayed on high alert because the Demon Lord had already created many seemingly impossible miracles.

Yi Tian and others watched Zhu Ji and Lingtong along with the soldiers of Great Fei Kingdom, gradually approaching Earth Yang Peak.

It seemed they would pass by the mountainside of Earth Yang Peak.

The closest they might possibly be was less than three hundred meters.

At this distance, the Five Elements Divine Light would flash by almost instantly, leaving Zhu Ji with a minuscule chance to react.

A thousand meters!

Yi Tian gestured to everyone to stay calm. All held their breath.

Two Eastsea Falcons and two Golden Eagles were preparing to fly. On the ground, they could only exert less than twenty percent of their combat power. Once the fight began, they had to be airborne.

Huo Qubing, Yue Fei, Zijin Ming, and Dongfang Ye had already drawn their arrows, ready to string their bows at any time.

Each held a Treasure Bow with 1800 attack power.

Two days ago, Huo Qubing’s Archery Mastery rose to Level 8, and Yi Tian rewarded him with the Killing Wolf Bow he recently obtained from the King’s Treasure Chest.

Seven hundred meters!

"I sensed it; someone is tens of kilometers away, probably Guii Yidao, the Celestial Dao traitor. Everyone, block this place and don’t let Guii Yidao escape!"

Zhu Ji’s voice rang in everyone’s ears.

After saying this, Zhu Ji continued to sprint towards Guii Yidao.

Golden Lion doubted nothing, preparing to encircle from another side to ensure no mistakes.

Since Guii Yidao was still being hunted, it meant the Demon Lord hadn’t shown up.

If the Demon Lord came, how could he watch Guii Yidao being hunted down with indifferent eyes?

Unless, as the Great General said, he truly possessed foresight!

Five hundred meters!

Zhu Ji was moving so fast that many couldn’t clearly see him, and this was without using any Body Technique Martial Skills.

Yi Tian, possessing Level 13 Swordsmanship Mastery, had sharp eyesight.

The Five Elements Divine Light with 11800+ attack power was faster than Zhu Ji’s speed.

Three hundred meters!

This was the closest distance between the two.

Five Elements Divine Light!

"Swish!"

Yi Tian silently recited in his mind, a five-colored light streaked through the night.

Mystical yet dazzling!

Yi Tian revealed himself because of it!

The Five Elements Divine Light was so fast that as Yi Tian revealed himself, it was almost hitting Zhu Ji.

Deng!

Zhu Ji bristled, halting his steps. He didn’t even have time to raise a hand.

Defensive Martial Skill was always the fastest and simplest martial skill a Qi Refiner could release.

The Dragon-Slaying Tiger-Subduing Shield was activated by Zhu Ji at the last moment.

The Dragon-Slaying Tiger-Subduing Shield was a very powerful Defensive Martial Skill, each level increases shield defense power by 30%, similar to the Earth Heaven Technique.

Once the shield was up, Zhu Ji felt slightly at ease.

His shield, combined with Level 8 Spirit Mystical Technique, could defend against an attack of over 19000 power.

Stability assured!

Gah!

Zhu Ji’s eyes widened!

Because the Five Elements Divine Light passed through his Dragon-Slaying Tiger-Subduing Shield effortlessly.

"Uh!"

Finally, it struck Zhu Ji’s chest.

Zhu Ji lowered his head, confused, looking at the large hole in his chest.

Why was my strongest defense breached?

He was doomed to leave this world with this puzzle.

"Enemy attack!"

"Demon Lord!"

Lingtong reacted immediately, shouting loudly!

"Boom!"

Seventh-Child achieved Unity of Man and Gourd, striking an S-level Qi Refiner with the Sharp Gold Fist from the gourd, killing him on the spot.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Yue Fei, Huo Qubing, and others released arrows, targeting their foes.

Two Eastsea Falcons and two Golden Eagles soared into the sky.

Zijin Ming, Zijin Guang, and Xin Qiji activated their talents, charging towards another early-stage S-level Body Refiner.

The early-stage S-level Body Refiner had only an A-level physique-enhancing talent, somewhat awkward.

"Whoosh!"

Golden Lion General Lingtong, calm under pressure, instantly drew and nocked his bow after Yi Tian’s attack, shooting at Yi Tian.
