The six of them stood in place and waited. Reality proved that they didn't need to wait for too long. They heard a loud explosion in the distance, but it disappeared without a trace.
Very quickly, a figure flew back from the distance. It was Lu An. His blood-stained clothes had disappeared, and his red eyes had disappeared as well. His speed wasn't very fast, and he was much more relaxed than he had been during the battle. He flew in front of the six people.
"Both of them are dead." Lu An didn't need the six people to ask. His voice was calm as he said, "We didn't leave any survivors."
Actually, Lu An had wanted to kill the one who could still fight and bring the unconscious one back, but he hadn't expected both of them to die. Lu An had tried his best to avoid hitting the unconscious one with his attacks. In fact, the unconscious one hadn't been killed by him, but by one of the Spirit Race members who could still move.
When Lu An had forced his way close to the two of them and wanted to send the unconscious one flying and separate them, the other Spirit Race member, who hadn't been seriously injured, had decisively chosen to self-detonate. Fortunately, he had been prepared and had covered his body with darkness energy the entire time, allowing him to escape in time.
To be honest, this battle had put a lot of pressure on Lu An. It was even more intense than the battle two months ago, when he had fought against ten Spirit Race members alone. In the previous battle, his enemies had not chosen to self-detonate. They had only chosen to self-detonate when they were on the verge of death. This had allowed Lu An to predict when they would self-detonate and prepare to escape in advance. However, this time was completely different. Many of his enemies had self-detonated during the battle, and none of them had been seriously injured. In fact, one of them had self-detonated before the battle had even begun. It had been too sudden, and Lu An hadn't been able to predict it at all.
The unexpected self-detonation posed a great threat to Lu An. If he got too close, he wouldn't be able to make it in time even if he used his defensive equipment, not to mention that he didn't have much defensive equipment. He couldn't rely too much on his defensive equipment. No matter what, he needed to think of a way to deal with this situation after this battle.
The six members of the Fu Clan naturally didn't doubt Lu An's words, and they didn't check the battlefield before leaving. All ten Astrals had died. Completely wiping out an enemy was something that could only be accomplished on a battlefield because both sides would choose to retreat when they were at a disadvantage. Annihilating the enemy was a very honorable thing to do. Even if three people died, it was definitely worth the honor.
The six of them felt heavy, happy, and relaxed. However, no matter what, they couldn't stay here any longer. The new captain of the Fu Clan immediately said to everyone, "Let's go back and report!"
"Yes!"

Immortal Star Stream, Allied Forces Headquarters.
A Gate of Heavenly Water opened, and seven figures appeared one after another. They were the Fu Clan's team that Lu An was in.
There were many teleportation portals in the eight camps led by the Hachiko clan. However, the teleportation portals set up by the Hachiko clan were very close to the Fu Clan's army, while the teleportation portals set up by the living beings in the Milky Way were located at the back. Because of this, the Fu Clan's army could clearly see the opening and closing of the Gate of Heavenly Water. They were also watching very seriously, and everyone's heart was extremely heavy.
It was already considered good that seven or eight of them returned. Seeing that all of them returned would make every member of the Fu Clan jump for joy, even if they had to keep quiet and not show it. When they saw that seven of Lu An's team had returned, everyone's heart tightened. However, it was already good that all seven of them returned. Everyone had injuries on their bodies, but they didn't look too serious. They could even return to the battlefield after some rest.
That was indeed the case, but Lu An was the only exception. Lu An seemed to be in the best condition, but that was because he had consumed three Immortal Elixirs to recover. If not, he would have been dead. He had encountered the Blood Sacrifice at close range, and he had also encountered multiple self-detonations at close range. He had almost died. However, he didn't mention anything about this during the reporting process. He still had some Immortal Elixir energy in his body, so he wanted to return to the battlefield as soon as possible.
The six of them needed to rest, but he didn't. The team was originally going to be reorganized into ten people. He didn't have any training with anyone, so it was the same for him to carry out the mission with the other teams. Lu An didn't hide his thoughts, and directly said to the person in charge, "I don't need to rest. I want to return to the battlefield as soon as possible to carry out the mission. It doesn't matter who I am in the same team as."
When he said this, everyone from the Fu Clan was stunned, including the six people who carried out the mission with Lu An.
Unless there was an emergency or there was a shortage of manpower on the battlefield, people like them who had rushed to the battlefield would be allowed to rest immediately, and the rest would be rotated to the battlefield. After all, there were so many people who hadn't gone to the battlefield yet, so there was no need to let a group of people fight repeatedly. Furthermore, from a psychological point of view, people who had just finished a battle needed to rest and calm down. They needed to adapt and recover their mental state. Otherwise, after experiencing multiple battles and life and death situations, a person's mental state and thoughts would be affected.
However, Lu An indeed didn't need to rest, because he had seen countless people being executed and tortured to death in front of him since he was young. Many slaves' mental endurance even surpassed that of Heaven Tier warriors, so this was definitely not a lie.
However … when the person in charge heard Lu An's request, he immediately shook his head. He didn't even think about it, and rejected him on the spot. "No, you can go and rest with them. If you need to fight again, I will inform you."
Lu An was obviously stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect to receive such an answer. Logically speaking, he wasn't a member of the Fu Clan. If he could prevent a member of the Fu Clan from going to the battlefield, the other party should have agreed. Moreover, his wife had also agreed to let him go to the battlefield.
Soldiers couldn't disobey orders. Lu An naturally wouldn't object, but he wanted to know the reason. He frowned and asked, "Why?"
"I don't know why either." The person in charge knew that Lu An was dissatisfied, and said, "But this is the Young Master's idea."
Lu An was stunned when he heard this, and immediately turned to look at the high platform in the distance.
On the high platform, the eight commanders of the Hachiko clan were currently discussing, but the Clan Head of the Hachiko clan still hadn't arrived. As the commander of the Fu Clan's frontline, Fu Yu was naturally saying something as well. It was impossible to pass false military orders on the battlefield, but Lu An didn't know why his wife suddenly didn't allow him to go to the battlefield.
His wife had always supported him in going through battles, so why did she suddenly change her mind? Could it be that something that he didn't know about had suddenly happened?
However, since his wife didn't allow him to go, Lu An wouldn't say another word. After bowing to the person in charge, he immediately headed to the treatment and rest area with the other six, and sat on the ground to rest.
As he continued to absorb the divine energy in his body, he looked at the location of the three-way alliance. The three-way alliance was naturally arranged in a tight square formation. Lu An could only see the people at the edges and those who were separated from the square formation, but he couldn't see the people within the square formation. As far as his eyes could see, he still didn't see the figures of Beauty Yao and Beauty Yang, including the group of higher-ups at the front of the square formation. If the two ladies were here, they wouldn't be standing in the square formation, but in this group of people.
In other words, they hadn't returned yet.
Lu An frowned. He was extremely worried about the two ladies. He knew that the two ladies had always wanted to increase their strength, and wanted to go to the battlefield because of this. He had unknowingly given them too much pressure. In fact, Lu An didn't wish for them to do so at all. He had always been cultivating with all his might, so that he could use his own strength to protect his wife, and not let his wife cultivate to go to the battlefield.
However, there were many things that he couldn't decide, and could only accept.
Lu An turned his head, and once again looked at the high platform, at his wife who was on the high platform.
Fu Yu had always been discussing something with the other seven commanders. Normally, they would be in charge of their own battles, but it seemed like this battle was very different from the previous one. However, even so, he couldn't understand why his wife didn't allow him to go to the battlefield. Even if the enemy's Heavenly King Realm experts were mobilized, there wasn't a need to do so. After all, in the previous battle, both sides had mobilized a large number of Heavenly King Realm experts.
What exactly happened on the battlefield for his wife to make such a decision?
