"City Lord, why is the Blue Dragon King not coming out yet?"
The streets and alleys, the broken pavilions, and the cracks in the city walls were everywhere. The enemy's attacks intensified each time, announcing a heartless fact: the city was about to fall.
An outer sect elder could not help asking about Xiao Chen.
Lan Shaobai smiled bitterly to himself as he glanced at this person. He remembered that this was the grandmaster-level Martial Sage that Kim Tae-ho had first hired from the Black Sea. This person had been on Heavenly Star Island for more than a year already and could be considered a veteran.
After this person spoke, the group of outer sect elders all looked at Lan Shaobai.
"Never mind. You all can go. I left some Black Astral Coins and two copies of Profound Martial Techniques in the City Lord's Residence. After you obtain them, you can leave through the underground passageway."
These outer sect elders had already done their best to last until now. After all, compared to Heavenly Star Island, these old men were only consecrated.
It was already pretty good that they did not turn against Xiao Chen when they saw that the city was about to fall.
Hence, they parted on good terms. Now that the situation was already over, there was no need to drag this group of people down with them.
When the old man who asked the question heard this, he immediately felt that something was wrong. Something must have happened to the Blue Dragon King, Xiao Chen. He probably would not be able to rush back quickly.
"City Lord, you are overthinking. This old man has watched Heavenly Star Island develop step by step. Although my feelings for Heavenly Star Island are not like those of the inner sect elders and the City Lord, I am willing to defend it to the last moment. Before this city falls, this old man will not take half a step out of Heavenly Star Island. "
"That's right. If this city doesn't fall, we will not leave."
To Lan Shaobai's surprise, the group of outer sect elders did not choose to leave immediately. Instead, they all chose to defend to the last moment.
At that time, it would be difficult for them to escape.
Lan Shaobai's expression changed slightly. He smiled and said, "In that case, many thanks to everyone. I hope that everyone will hold fast to your posts. If the other party's cultivators charge in through the cracks in the barrier, I will have to trouble everyone."
Although most of the Buddha statues' attacks were blocked by the seven ancient Blue Dragon images, a small portion of their attacks still hit the barrier.
Many cultivators of the eight factions would take advantage of the crack in the barrier before it mended to charge in. They wanted to attack the root of the problem and destroy the core of the Dragon's Gate's Heaven Lock Formation.
If that happened, Stellarsky City would fall into the enemy's hands in an instant. Liu Ke, Jin Lin, and the others were guarding the core of the formation, unable to leave.
As for the city walls, they needed a large number of people to be the first line of defense. For this group of Outer Sect Elders to say such words, Lan Shaobai couldn't help but be moved.
Whoosh!
Lan Shaobai's figure flashed, and he arrived at a slightly quieter place on the city walls. Elder Qin was circulating his energy to treat Yue Chenxi's injuries there, not stopping for even a moment.
"Chenxi, how is she?" Lan Shaobai asked anxiously, regret flashing in his eyes.
Elder Qin did not stop what he was doing. He sighed and said, "Her situation is more or less stable. There is no danger to her life. However, the rebound from her Martial Technique injured her heart vessels, and her meridians ruptured. Without medicine to heal her meridians, she will probably become an ordinary person."
When Lan Shaobai heard this, he clenched his fists tightly, revealing the veins on the back of his hands. Hatred surged in his eyes.
No matter how much Lan Shaobai hated Fu Lianyun, who had shamelessly injured Yue Chenxi, had a wide smile on his face at this moment. Flattery filled his ears.
On the Metal Blood Warship, when Zhuang Zhenghe heard about Fu Lianyun's "magnificent feat," he could not help smiling. "Little Brother Fu, good job. After we break into Heavenly Star City, I can let you choose a treasure first."
Fu Lianyun felt extremely flattered. He quickly said, "I dare not, I dare not. Brother Zhuang contributed the most. If not for Brother Zhuang rushing over to activate the Amitabha Buddha image, the situation would not be like this."
At this moment, the people of the other eight factions also saw the wind and changed their direction. After seeing the might of the Amitabha Buddha image, they felt a deep fear of Zhuang Zhenghe.
After all sorts of flattery, they bombarded Zhuang Zhenghe with compliments.
"However, the Blue Dragon King, Xiao Chen, seems to have not appeared from the start. I wonder where he went."
"He probably has something to do. Otherwise, he would not have not appeared until now."
"Fortunately, he is not here. Otherwise, Heavenly Star Island would not be so easy to break into."
Seeing that Heavenly Star City was about to fall, the leaders of the eight factions felt very relaxed. They chatted without any reservations.
"Humph!"
Just at this moment, the group heard a cold snort. Zhuang Zhenghe said unhappily, "Even if Xiao Chen comes, this old man can easily kill him."
Seeing Zhuang Zhenghe's expression change, the others immediately stopped talking, not daring to say anything more.
Putting aside the Amitabha Buddha image, Zhuang Zhenghe's aura had already reached an unimaginable level.
Before him, the other Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperors could not help but feel fear.
It was not that they had not seen Zhuang Zhenghe before. However, the feeling that Zhuang Zhenghe gave them today was very different. His aura was terrifyingly strong. These Blue Robed Emperors did not know why. When they saw Zhuang Zhenghe get angry, they all kept quiet out of fear.
The Metal Blood Sect's Sect Master, Chen Ming, changed the topic. "The city looks like it is about to fall. Everyone, please make your preparations."
The group quickly looked over and saw that the seven azure dragon images circling outside Heavenly Star City had already turned into azure light that filled the sky and rained down.
Everyone in the city looked at the green speck of light with despair on their faces.
Everyone knew that without the protection of the seven Blue Dragons, the barrier of Heavenly Star City would not be able to withstand a palm strike from the Amitabha Buddha image.
Lan Shaobai bowed slightly. Then, he faced the many outer sect elders who fought to the end and said, "This time, Lan Shaobai thanks everyone. Let's go!"
Suddenly, an outer sect elder pointed to the back and exclaimed in pleasant surprise, "City Lord, look!"
Lan Shaobai turned his head and saw a familiar white figure rushing over at lightning speed.
"Boom!"
The Amitabha Buddha image's huge hand descended, shrouding the entire Heavenly Star City in darkness. The pitch-black world made everyone in the city feel suffocated with fear and despair, feeling a deep sense of helplessness.
Before Lan Shaobai could clearly see that figure's face, this palm strike shattered the final defensive barrier of the Dragon's Gate's Heaven Locking Formation.
A strong Buddhist Might surged over, and the entire city wall instantly crumbled, crumbling completely.
All the buildings of various sizes in the city crumbled under this horrifying might. Heavenly Star City, which had taken close to two years of effort, was destroyed in an instant.
It looked like this palm strike would crush everyone to death or injure them. Suddenly, an unyielding dragon roar resounded in the sky.
The dragon's voice reverberated as it roared out, completely suppressing the chanting of scriptures that had not stopped throughout the entire time.
The sound waves spread out in all directions, kicking up waves on the surface of the sea. They layered over each other, surging endlessly. With this roar, the Buddha statues worshiped in several of the temples on Heavenly Star Island's subsidiary islands all shattered.
A saber light flashed in the pitch-black space, chopping off the Buddha image's palm down the middle.
A ray of sunlight shone through the crack. The light was holy and solemn. Under the illumination, a white figure hovered in the air while holding a saber.
One man and one saber broke this huge palm filled with Buddhist Might. This ray of light seemed to freeze the entire scene, making it hard to forget.
After an instant, the huge palm vanished, and sunlight illuminated the land. Heavenly Star City regained its light. The cultivators fighting in the city all clearly saw that figure.
If it was not the Blue Dragon King, Xiao Chen, who else could it be?!
"It's over. The Blue Dragon King is back!"
When the people of the eight factions on the Metal Blood Warship that had already arrived at Heavenly Star Island saw this scene, they could not help exclaiming.
Who could have expected that Xiao Chen, who had not appeared all this while, would appear at this crucial moment?
Furthermore, the moment Xiao Chen appeared, he chopped off the palm strike that rivaled a peak Consummation Consummation Blue Robed Emperor's attack. How could they not feel fear?
Zhuang Zhenghe shouted coldly and angrily, "What are you all panicking for? I am not even afraid. What are you all afraid of?"
Chen Ming knew that the leaders of the other factions still had some value, so he consoled them at an appropriate time. "Don't exaggerate his strength. He just used a trick, using a sound wave to break the Buddhist sound. That is how he managed to barely block it, reducing the might of the palm strike significantly.
"Given Brother Zhuang's strength, it is more than enough to deal with him. Furthermore, the Amitabha Buddha image is not that easy to break."
Zhuang Zhenghe said, "That's right. Just help me block those small fries later. There is no need for you to worry about the rest."
Fu Lianyun and the others calmed down. At this moment, there was no turning back. They could only fight to the death.
After chopping off the Amitabha Buddha image with one saber strike and sending it into the clouds, Xiao Chen did not take advantage of the situation to give chase. Xiao Chen looked around at the ruined Heavenly Star City and quickly landed beside Lan Shaobai.
When Lan Shaobai saw Xiao Chen land, a guilty expression flashed on his face. He said, "Sorry, I still failed to defend this city …"
Xiao Chen patted Lan Shaobai's shoulder and said, "Don't say that. I'm the one apologizing to you. You did your best and did very well. Chenxi, what happened to her? "
Xiao Chen's gaze shifted to Yue Chenxi, who was being guarded by Elder Qin. His face sank as he asked immediately.
Lan Shaobai quickly recounted the events that transpired. After Xiao Chen finished, he suddenly discovered that the surrounding air suddenly turned bone-chilling, a bone-chilling killing intent that made him tremble involuntarily.
When Xiao Chen came out of the Dragon's Gate Treasure Trove, he sensed the extraordinary atmosphere of Heavenly Star Island, so he rushed over before Mo Chen did.
What a despicable and shameless old fogey!
Even when Xiao Chen saw the ruined Heavenly Star City, he still managed to control his killing intent. When Xiao Chen heard Lan Shaobai's description, he could no longer control his killing intent.
Lan Shaobai was still fine. After all, he had the cultivation of the Blue Robed Emperor and was an outstanding talent. This killing intent could not injure Xiao Chen. However, those outer sect elders did not have it easy.
"Whoosh!"
Mo Chen, who was slightly slower than Xiao Chen, arrived. When she saw Xiao Chen's state, she immediately said anxiously, "Big Brother Xiao, you injured them."
