When everyone heard Lu An's words, their bodies trembled!
Don't fight?
One had to know that if one didn't fight when encountering an enemy on the battlefield, or even choose not to fight without even exchanging blows, it was equivalent to desertion to a certain extent!
Lu An naturally knew this, but he didn't hesitate or feel pressured when he said it. This might be because he wasn't a member of the Fu Clan. Other than the battle at Purple Lake City, when Lu An participated in the battle as a soldier, he had never participated in a battle as a soldier. This was the second time he participated in a full-scale battle. Because of this, his way of thinking was very different from the Fu Clan.
"Why?" The captain took a deep breath and immediately asked. If it was someone else who said this, he would definitely be furious. However, it was Lu An who said this. Not only because of his relationship with the Young Master, but also because of Lu An's unique ability. During the battle almost a month ago, Lu An was the one who discovered that there was something wrong with the atmosphere on the planet. Lu An was also the one who saved more than half of the Fu Clan members. This was something that everyone in the Fu Clan knew. Because of this, Lu An's opinion was very important.
"The enemy has a total of ten people. Two of them are rushing towards me at an extremely fast speed." Lu An thought for a while, but still said, "If I'm not wrong, these two people are not weaker than you. They might even be … stronger than you!"
When he said this, everyone was shocked!
The captain was the one with the highest realm among the eight of them. They naturally understood what Lu An meant. The two people who attacked first were stronger than the captain. Then … it was very likely that the captain wasn't a match for any of the ten people. If even the captain wasn't a match for the enemy, there was no need to talk about them.
Lu An's words made the seven of them feel extremely pressured.
Logically speaking, if they met an enemy who was stronger than them and outnumbered them, they should definitely avoid them and give up on this battlefield. Although there were many resources on this planet, the Fu Clan didn't send them to investigate until now. This meant that the Total War Memory didn't have a high status in the hearts of the Fu Clan. Furthermore, this wasn't a planet with life, so it was basically impossible for them to send reinforcements. Logically speaking, he should have followed Lu An's advice and given up on the fight, but the problem was … there were still some unresolved issues.
"There are two more people on this planet." One of them immediately said, "We haven't found them yet. We don't even know if they are alive or dead! If they're still alive and guarding the other resource areas, and we don't notify them, they'll definitely fall into the hands of the Astrals. When that happens, they'll be dead for sure! "
Hearing his words, the others frowned. That was indeed the case. They could choose not to fight, but they couldn't just give up on their companions. Although the two of them were not members of the Hachiko clan, they were still comrades in the alliance.
"Apart from this resource area, we still have three more that we haven't searched." The captain quickly said, "If these three resource areas have been destroyed, then there's no need to search for them. Otherwise, these two people might have been killed even if they were in the resource areas. If the resource area hasn't been destroyed, we'll immediately look for people and evacuate once we find them! "
Hearing the captain's order to 'evacuate', everyone took a deep breath and immediately replied, "Yes!"
Without a doubt, the captain's order was correct. In a situation where there were no lives to protect, they could completely abandon the resources on this planet. Their lives were more important than the resources on this planet. Lu An immediately changed the spatial coordinates and led the seven of them to the remaining three resource areas. Two of the resource areas had already been destroyed. When they saw the mess, the eight of them didn't hesitate and immediately moved to the next resource area. The eight of them spent some time investigating the only resource area that hadn't been destroyed, but they didn't find any traces of the two people.
Nobody.
The eight of them gathered again and shook their heads. The result was obvious.
The seven of them, including Lu An, all looked at the captain. Reality had proven that the two of them were doomed. If they had been discovered by the Astrals, there was no way they could have survived. Even though their hearts were heavy, they had to accept reality in battle. They couldn't be swayed by their emotions.
"Go back and report," the captain took a deep breath and said calmly. "Let the higher-ups make the decision."
The seven of them nodded in agreement. Lu An immediately released his spatial energy to change the spatial coordinates and prepare to take the seven of them away. However, just as Lu An released his spatial energy, a sudden change occurred!
Fifty thousand feet away from where the eight of them were gathered, a spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared. Immediately after, several figures appeared one after another at an extremely fast speed!
Lu An immediately turned to look. The seven of them also noticed the abnormality. They had spatial perception. Moreover, the moment these people appeared, a powerful aura immediately spread out between heaven and earth. It was difficult not to discover them!
These people appeared too quickly, and the first person to appear immediately discovered the eight people fifty thousand feet away. A distance of fifty thousand feet was too short for a Heaven Tier cultivator. Not only could their techniques achieve the greatest effect, but some of their large-scale techniques could even reach fifty thousand feet. When this person saw that there were actually people in the distance, he was also shocked. However, he immediately reacted. His figure instantly rushed out, and he rushed towards the eight of them alone! At the same time, his entire body erupted with power, and he immediately threw out two punches!
This person focused all his power on his fists. Two bursts of Death Energy no more than thirty meters in diameter shot out at an extremely fast speed! That's right. Even though such a small range attack could be dodged, he only wanted to prevent the eight of them from escaping through spatial transfer. His goal was to destroy the space around the eight of them.
Even if Lu An instantly changed the spatial coordinates, the eight of them still had to enter one after the other. In fact, they could barely make it in time. However, the problem was that the eight of them did not have as much confidence in their understanding of spatial laws as Lu An. Faced with a sudden attack, and without knowing whether they could escape, they instinctively chose to defend themselves!
"Boom!!"
Immediately, a huge defensive barrier formed by heavenly water appeared. The instant the power exploded, it meant that the surrounding space had completely exploded!
"Oh no!"
Lu An's eyes immediately turned cold. His vision was not focused on the confrontation between the two sides at all, because the seven of them would definitely be able to defend against one person's attack. Lu An's vision was fixed on the spatial fluctuation in the distance. The first person to rush out had only released his compressed power after rushing out for a distance, so it did not affect the spatial fluctuation behind him. In his vision, one figure after another walked out at an extremely fast speed.
Extremely quickly, the enemies appeared one after another, and … there were a total of ten of them!
All of them were present!
When the newcomers discovered the eight members of the Fu Clan, they immediately attacked. The powerful Death Energy formed one terrifying blood beast after another, charging towards the heavenly water barrier!
"Rumble!!!"
Under the heavy attack, the heavenly water barrier immediately exploded and collapsed! Even Lu An's Dark Energy could not form in the face of such a powerful explosion. Lu An moved to dodge. He did not participate in the confrontation just now, so he tried his best to help the others while protecting himself.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The power of the explosion dissipated quickly. However, because the explosion just now had scattered the eight members of the Fu Clan, even though they were all on one side, the furthest one was already more than fifteen thousand feet away.
Lu An was with two of them, while the other five were scattered and kept a distance from each other. After the explosion, not only were the ten figures not forced to retreat, but they were even closer to each other. As the chaotic space gradually stabilized, the figures of the ten figures gradually became clearer. The ten of them were lined up in a row, completely surrounding one side.
Looking at this scene, Lu An's brows furrowed even more. It was obvious that it would be very difficult for the eight of them to meet up. If he wanted to save the others, he would have to rush through the attacks one by one. The difficulty would increase exponentially! However, until now, Lu An had not released any of his powers. This was of course intentional, because he did not want the enemies to discover his identity.
Once he was discovered, he would not be able to stop them if they wanted to go back and ask for reinforcements. Once reinforcements arrived, everyone, including him, would die. More importantly, Lu An could not even see if anyone had left. Not knowing when reinforcements would arrive was the most terrifying thing. It was equivalent to waiting for death to come.
However, after the clash of powers, the ten members of the Spirit Clan did not rush to attack. All nine of them were waiting for their captain's orders. The captain of the Spirit Clan stood in the middle of the ten with his hands behind his back. His eyes were indifferent as he looked at the eight scattered people in front of him.
Suddenly, he fixed his gaze on one person. Following that, his indifferent gaze suddenly changed. First, it was shock, followed by incomparable surprise!
Following that, he revealed a very obvious smile. His eyes were fixated on one spot as he shouted, "I never thought that I would meet you – Lu An!"
