Dong Dong Dong Dong...

Suddenly, the earth trembled, an invisible might transmitted from the horizon.

The birds resting in the forest abruptly flew up into the night sky, desperately fleeing into the distance.

Wild animals also scurried out, running for their lives.

Even in the ceaseless flow of the river, some fish jumped out of the water, seemingly startled.

The white-haired, balding elder Xiao Wendao looked solemnly in the direction of the commotion.

He knew that it was the Martial Arts Army of the Luo Royal Mansion marching in haste, closing in on the Divine Sword Sect.

From this location, it was probably less than two hundred miles to the Divine Sword Sect.

With the Luo Royal Mansion’s Martial Arts Army’s speed of advance, they could reach the gates of the Divine Sword Sect by tomorrow morning.

"Old Ghost Xiao, do you see it? The Luo Royal Mansion’s army has already come, and it won’t be long before they trample down your Divine Sword Sect..."

Master Yang Mei of the Purple Cloud Sect held a feather duster and pointed in the direction of the commotion, aiming to provoke Xiao Wendao, "Heh, do you feel powerless and resentful now? Because all you can do is watch helplessly as the Divine Sword Sect is destroyed... Your disciples, everything your Divine Sword Sect has... will ultimately be reduced to ashes under the Luo Royal Mansion’s army, ceasing to exist..."

Xiao Wendao didn’t speak. His face was frigid as he stared intently at Master Yang Mei, the Mai Mang Divine Sword in his palm also trembling slightly, almost uncontrollable.

But... he knew that he no longer had much fighting power left.

Even his last resort, the Mai Mang Divine Sword... was unlikely to threaten these two Heavenly Persons.

After all, these two Heavenly Persons were excessively cautious.

Moreover, his injuries were severe, and under these circumstances, there was no way to heal. With time, things would only get worse.

The only thing he could do now... was to delay these two Heavenly Persons for as long as possible, even if just for an additional day or two.

Wearing a black cloak, Li Qian hid on top of a large tree, motionless; he even used the function of the Chen Bell to lock in his own aura.

At this moment, he could feel the shaking of the land, the invisible might coming from afar.

The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi seemed to have entered a state of frenzy.

Before his eyes, a dark and dense army of Mystic Armor troops was marching in a steady pace, forming a unique array.

The entire army appeared as a single entity, with numerous intents to fight converging before it, intensely powerful, sweeping through everything, unstoppable.

"Is this the Military Heart and Battle Intent of the Martial Arts Army?"

Li Qian murmured to himself.

This was the first time he had witnessed a real Martial Arts Army.

Moreover, it was a Martial Arts Army set in battle formation.

Even now, this Martial Arts Army was only marching, not yet in combat mode, otherwise, this military might and intent would be even more terrifying.

"I wonder where that half-demon army is located?"

Li Qian watched as the Martial Arts Army passed by like a black torrential flood.

He had previously scouted a large area and found no trace of the half-demon army.

However... those half-demons, before transforming, are all ordinary Martial Artists.

They could not possibly maintain their transformed state at all times.

Thus, it is very possible that the half-demon army is currently just marching in the guise of an ordinary troop.

"Alas, facing such a Martial Arts Army, with my strength, I probably can’t directly confront them head-on."

Li Qian sighed internally.

He could feel the strength of the Martial Arts Army’s intent to fight, which might well shake the True Image Level Martial Intent of Heavenly Persons.

Perhaps a single ordinary Martial Artist is like an ant in front of a Heavenly Person, and even tens of thousands of ordinary Martial Artists are a disorganized crowd in the eyes of a Heavenly Person.

But when these thousands, tens of thousands of Martial Artists join together, form a Martial Arts Army, arrange battle formations... the qualitative change produced is earth-shattering.

Especially since the Martial Arts Army that just passed by had numerous high-ranked Martial Artists and even some Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters; if there were also Heavenly Persons as commanders, one can only imagine the strength of their combat power.

"The best strategy would be to take advantage of the moment when this Martial Arts Army is at rest, not in battle formation, to covertly infiltrate and launch a surprise attack..."

Li Qian calculated.

Of course, the risk was also extraordinarily high.

After all, infiltrating deep within a powerful army to assassinate would likely lead to being trapped in the midst of the army’s battle array and ultimately to a slow death by attrition.

Hence, he certainly wouldn’t do such a thing.

As Li Qian was preparing to leave, he suddenly heard some unusual commotion from a distance by the riverbank.

He was instantly alert, carefully making his way over.

Eventually, he stood on a hillside and saw figures flickering by the bank of the raging river.

He didn’t dare to use Spiritual Perception to scout, nor did he dare to look directly.

So, he took out a simple telescope he had made while bored from the Black Iron Ring and aimed it in that direction.

The moonlight was rather bright tonight.

Utilizing the telescope, he could still see the figures by the river clearly.

Three in total.

One was sitting cross-legged by the riverbank.

The other two were standing at a distance.

"Is that... Xiao, Heavenly Person Xiao?"

Li Qian’s heart skipped a beat, utterly astonished.

Heavenly Person Xiao’s luck was too bad, wasn’t it? To be hunted down yet again?

Li Qian didn’t know about the few Heavenly Persons’ humiliating return to the Divine Sword Sect before he left it.

But with the Night King Mansion’s army being defeated at Qi River, the situation for the Heavenly Persons couldn’t be much better.

"Those two should be Heavenly Persons..."

Li Qian considered internally.

He just didn’t know why those two Heavenly Persons hadn’t taken action and were just watching instead.

If it were one Heavenly Person, he could infiltrate, launch a fatal strike, and it wouldn’t be too difficult.

But two Heavenly Persons made it a completely different story.
