CHAPTER 604: 448, LIAN YI IN DESPAIR, XU GU TAKES ACTION

"The situation is not looking good."

The Saintess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, Lian Yi, frowned deeply as she observed the scene ahead.

In front of them were densely packed thousands of warriors from the Thunder Spirit Clan.

There were more than a dozen Intermediate Kings among them.

Among them, a younger Thunder Spirit Clan woman, with an athletic build and dark skin, was surrounded by flashing red thunderbolts.

Her aura was undeniably that of a Half-step Upper King!

She was also a major general of the Thunder Spirit Clan, known as Chi Hongtong.

The Thunder Spirit Clan this time had made a firm resolution to eradicate all foreign explorers who set foot on the Fourth Star.

Thus, not only the Red Fire Thunder Tribe where Mo Shui resided, but also strong warriors from other tribes participated in the action.

Mo Shui led the Black Water Thunder Tribe which had overall stronger forces, responsible for targeting Xu Gu and most of the explorers at the gateway.

And, the Red Fire Thunder Tribe was in charge of targeting the Qingqiu Fox Saintess and the prospective son-in-law of the Sword-man Clan, Jian Judao’s fleet.

"Boss, I still don’t have a woman, can you give her to me?"

Next to Chi Hongtong, a young burly man from the Thunder Spirit Clan, muscular and imposing with terrifying evil Qi about him, stepped forward.

His gaze towards the Qingqiu Saintess Lian Yi was fiery and greedy, even somewhat lecherous as he couldn’t help swallowing saliva.

Beauty like Lian Yi’s could be fatally captivating even to top kings who had weathered many storms and seen great swathes of the world.

Not to mention these Thunder Spirit Clan people who hadn’t seen much of the world.

Not just him, nearly all the male Thunder Spirits on the field set their sights tightly on Lian Yi.

"What is this?"

With a deep gaze and a grave expression, Lian Yi said unhappily to Chi Hongtong,

"Weren’t we supposed to join forces against Xu Gu of the Human Clan? Are you planning to backstab us?"

"Something like that." Chi Hongtong replied casually, obviously not taking Lian Yi, who was on her own, seriously. The reason was simple.

Not only were they numerous, but she was also an incredibly powerful Half-step Upper King.

Naturally, they would not fear Lian Yi.

"Where is the Sword-man Clan fleet?" Chi Hongtong was more concerned about the fleet of the Sword-man Clan.

They had already made contact with many explorers, and from them, they forced out much information about the outside world, letting them know the power of outsiders.

Also, the representatives of the forces that would step foot on the Fourth Star and pose a threat to them.

The Qingqiu Fox Saintess Lian Yi frowned deeply, feeling an instinctual warning that this crisis was severe.

Mainly because they had been overconfident.

They hadn’t expected the secluded Thunder Spirit people to be so bold as to make a move on them.

At that moment,

a fierce shout came from afar,

"Let go of my Miss Lian Yi!"

From the horizon emerged fleet after fleet, with a dominant aura and cold glint as if they were hunters from the universe.

The oppressive atmosphere was incredibly strong.

"Ha, the prey has delivered itself to our doorstep," Chi Hongtong sneered, her eyes gleaming with murderous intent.

The reason was simple, whether it was the Saintess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan or other explorers, they were all just looking for treasures on the Fourth Star.

Whereas the Sword-man Clan fleet was actively capturing their Thunder Spirit Clan people.

Towards the Sword-man Clan, their anger was naturally greater, and they targeted them deliberately.

As Chi Hongtong finished speaking, warriors from the Thunder Spirit Clan, like a tidal wave controlling Divine Thunder, moved at Extreme Speed, enveloping the entire fleet of the Sword-man Clan.

"How dare you run amok?" Jian Judao from the Sword-man Clan angrily reprimanded.

He was very angry.

In his view, these Thunder Spirit people were merely slaves; not only did they want to lay hands on the woman Lian Yi, whom he viewed as sacrosanct, and speak blasphemously, but they also dared to attack his fleet!

It was simply seeking death!

"How so? You can capture our Thunder Spirit people. Can’t our Thunder Spirit warriors capture you?" sneered Chi Hongtong.

Jian Judao’s anger intensified.

He was eager to start a battle.

"Sir, should we retreat?"

"There are too many of them!"

"Though we could defeat them, the loss would probably be heavy, a bit too costly!"

"There’s no need for just a little demoness of the Qingqiu Fox Clan."

The strong members of the Sword-man Clan fleet, with furrowed brows, looked anxiously at the surrounding Thunder Spirit strong warriors.

They didn’t want to start a war with the Thunder Spirit Clan.

The cost was too great.

And the gain was nothing.

"What do you mean by ’just a little demoness’? That’s the Saintess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan!

"The top clan in the Mechanical Sea! If we can garner support from the Qingqiu Fox Clan, our Sword-man Clan could not only become a superpower on the Divine Domain Continent but also could develop very well within the Mechanical Sea!"

Having said that, Jian Judao did not act impulsively and engage in a fight.

Instead, he stepped out and proposed to Chi Hongtong:

"Battle between two armies causes too much loss. How about a single combat between you and me? If I win, let us and my Miss Lian Yi go.

"If I lose, we will let you dispose of us as you see fit."

Jian Judao already had a plan in his heart.

This fleet was his confidant; they couldn’t afford heavy losses, or it would risk his position within the Sword-man Clan.

It was better to challenge directly.

He was confident in his own strength.

He could easily defeat that woman.

This was also an opportunity to showcase his prowess in front of the Qingqiu Fox Clan’s Saintess!

"Bringing disgrace upon yourself," Chi Hongtong sneered and attacked directly: "Come fight!"

Finished speaking, a flaming spear in her hand flashed with dazzling divine brilliance, like a sun burning intensely, leaving trails of heavenly fire and thunder in its wake, with power unimaginably fierce.
