The sixteen students faltered slightly at the sight of the new arrivals before rushing toward them as if they had seen their saviors.
"An Lin, I beg of you, please avenge our teachers and classmates!" A male student with a severed arm pleaded with tears in his eyes.
"If it weren't for Teacher Yan Ze burning his own life force to stall Morton, all of us would've died here before reinforcements from the executive department arrived," a female student said as she wiped away her tears.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan remained silent as they made their way toward the shriveled male before extending deep bows toward him.
There was actually no need to say anything. They were part of Xiuxian United University anyway, and now that their teachers and students had died before their very eyes, he was definitely going to avenge them.
The Celestial Court's executive department had also noticed An Lin and the others, and they were led by a beautiful woman in a red dress.
"An Lin!" a crisp voice called out.
An Lin raised his head to discover that this was a rather familiar face. He had seen her before upon entering the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.
He extended a polite greeting. "Yang Ruoling, are you responsible for this?"
The woman in red shook her head. "No, Department Head Golden Tiger is responsible for Morton's death. I was only sent here to take care of the aftermath.
"Department Head Golden Tiger and Deputy Minister Chen Yu have already set up a large-scale warning spell formation in Ling Guang City, which can encompass half of the Gem State's border. However, the downside is that this spell formation is constantly expending energy, so it's not a long-term solution."
Yang Ruoling's expression was filled with concern as she spoke.
An Lin nodded upon hearing this. This wasn't to say that there were too few people in the executive department; it was just that there was a limit to what they could do in the face of such a powerful being. After all, Return to Void Stage mighty figures were among the most powerful beings on the entire continent, and they could use the power of space to come and go as they pleased. The Gem State was a massive place, so there was no guarantee that they would be able to send reinforcements immediately if they were to attack a city.
All the mighty figures of the executive department could do now was expand the warning spell formation in order to be able to send reinforcements as soon as possible in the event of a Blood Tribe attack.
Huang Quan City. On the city wall that had been enhanced by a spell formation.
An ordinary-looking figure suddenly appeared. It was a youth who didn't look very old.
He was dressed in a brownish-yellow linen robe. He wasn't tall, and there was a hint of vicissitudes in his delicate features.
The hemp-clothed youth shuttled between the soldiers and the students, but no one noticed his presence.
Even the Heaven's Eye left behind by Emperor Tian Huang automatically ignored his existence.
"Class President, do you think An Lin will be able to avenge his classmates and teachers?" Su Qianyun looked worried.
"That's hard to say. If Morton is arrogant, then he'll definitely be screwed, but from the information we've received so far, it seems like Morton isn't that type of person. Sigh, we have to work hard to become stronger as well. Only then can we be like An Lin and have the power to defend the glory of the Celestial Court! "Xuanyuan Cheng sighed, then his gaze became firm.
"Yes! I have to work hard to become stronger. Setting aside An Lin's footsteps, I have to catch up to Classmate Xiaolan first! "Su Qianyun clenched her little fists as she cheered herself on in a mellow voice.
A faint smile appeared on Xuanyuan Cheng's face. He had already decided that he was going to go into seclusion at the sect during this holiday. He wasn't going to school until he broke through to the Soul Formation Stage!
As it turned out, having someone who could catch up to lead the way was a great way to motivate prodigies.
Xuanyuan Cheng and Su Qianyun's aptitude was actually about the same as Wang Xuanzhan's, but their rate of growth and progression was slightly faster than Wang Xuanzhan's. Perhaps part of the credit for this could be attributed to the motivation that An Lin and Xu Xiaolan had given them.
The hemp-clothed youth listened for a while before nodding. "An Lin went to Cang Lan City? That's very close, so it's on the way … "
The hemp-clothed youth continued onward, and his body abruptly disappeared from this world.
Cang Lan City. An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were discussing the specific plan of attack with Yang Ruoling.
At this moment, a certain dao talisman on Yang Ruoling's body suddenly burst into flames.
Her expression shifted as she yelled in a panicked voice, "Crap, Qing Yu City is under attack by the Blood Tribe!"
"Little Xiao, let's go!" An Lin's expression became serious as he spoke.
"Wait, take me with you!" Yang Ruoling gritted her teeth, and there was an undisguised hatred on her beautiful face. "I have a very good friend who also died in the last battle. I want to participate in the battle as well. I want to do my part in the crusade against Morton."
An Lin looked at Yang Ruoling and didn't say anything as he nodded lightly.
Xiao Ze tore through space, and a black light enshrouded everyone as they traveled through space together.
Within Qing Yu City, the sound of spell techniques exploding shook heaven and earth.
Countless crimson lights bombarded the city walls, breaking through the protective array. A huge hole was blasted open in the towering city walls.
Tens of thousands of Blood Tribe soldiers charged toward the city wall, led by ten Soul Formation Stage Blood Tribe mighty figures, and they were able to unleash extremely fearsome attacks with ease.
Qing Yu City's defenses were quickly broken by the Blood Tribe army, and a ferocious battle instantly ensued.
Including the homeroom teacher of the thirty-fourth class, there were only three human Soul Formation Stage powerful beings. In the face of the ten Soul Formation Stage Blood Tribe mighty figures, they were soon on the losing end.
"Hold on, everyone! Reinforcements from the Celestial Court will be here soon!" a Spirit Nurturing Stage general yelled.
However, a few seconds later, a Blood Tribe mighty figure pounced on him like a bat, snapped his neck, and sucked all of his blood dry.
All of the soldiers and students did not back down upon seeing this. Instead, they fought with their lives on the line. They unleashed one powerful spell technique after another, and some of them were even willing to trade lives for lives. They knew that they wouldn't be able to hold on until reinforcements arrived, so they might as well take this opportunity to kill as many Blood Tribe mighty figures as they could.
A man with crimson scales all over his body standing atop a crimson falcon over a hundred feet in length roared with laughter. "Kill with all your might! Let's kill for another three minutes. When we're full, we'll retreat! "
"Are you sure you can hold on for three more minutes?" A clear voice suddenly sounded from behind the man.
A chill ran down the man's spine, and he immediately turned around before blasting scorching flames from his mouth.
The flames were like crimson ink as they swept through heaven and earth, twisting the air in their wake and imbuing them with extremely fearsome corrosive power.
However, an even more terrifying white flame instantly broke through the earth-shattering blood-colored flames.
The crimson flames seemed to have encountered an extremely fearsome natural predator, and all of them fled for their lives as if they were submitting to the white flame.
The Blood Tribe Soul Formation Stage man's pupils abruptly contracted as he was greeted by a fearsome slash of flames that was powerful enough to incinerate all things in this world, as well as a peerless figure enshrouded in flames.
In the next instant, the white slash of flames sliced the Soul Formation Stage powerful figure in half before incinerating him to ashes.
The Soul Formation Stage Blood Tribe mighty figure had been insta-killed by Xu Xiaolan.
At the same time, An Lin, Xiao Ze, Tina, Yang Ruoling, Xiao Chou, and Dabai all joined the battle.
The most powerful reinforcements from the Celestial Court had arrived.
