Chapter 463: The Battle To Defend the City (II)

Boom!

The longsword cleaved through the air, one stroke after another like the earth rearing up. Everyone could clearly witness each magnificent brilliance, but no one could block it! Even Hou Xiaochen and Kong Jie could only frown and respectively jab with his spear or punch with his fist. Golden Spear and the others erupted with force.

Tremendous battle strength overawed bystanders on all sides. Whether it was Golden Spear or Manager Yu, the power they brought to bear was so ferocious that even some Novas were shocked.

Most terrifying of all was that all of these people combined could do nothing but steadily retreat in the face of a singular opponent.

Mid Nova Qi Gang, a powerhouse on the Divine Masters Ranking, was armed with an origin weapon and could only hover on the sides. He was forced into continuously backing away, his face flushed and a shocked look in his eyes.

Initial Nova Hu Qingfeng started vomiting blood as the sword descended mercilessly! Initial Novas seemed particularly weak in a battlefield like this. There was only fear in his heart—too strong! Not only was the soldier in front of them strong, but everyone around him was also so much stronger than he imagined. He knew that Hou Xiaochen was powerful, but not that Kong Jie was extremely formidable as well. That punch came with such an aura that Hu Qingfeng felt like he was being ripped into two.

Why were there so many powerhouses among the Silver Moon authorities??

......

As battle raged in one corner of the city, Li Hao struck with his sword. He didn’t look in the direction of the fighting or even think about how strong Hou Xiaochen and the others were, how strong Hong Yitang was at the moment...

The only thought in his mind was to charge and kill! Multiple supernaturals were cut down at the waist when he slashed with his sword.

“It’s that Silver Armor!!” screamed a nearby, horrified supernatural.

Pfft!

Li Hao ran him through, blood spraying everywhere when the young man pulled his sword out. Black Armors charged by his side, gathering together to block supernaturals from converging on their officer. All of them roared soundlessly and fought a bloody battle, centering on Li Hao as the vanguard to pierce through the enemy’s battle lines.

As shouts and screams abounded, several Solars stepped forward on the wandering cultivator side. Not only that, but quite a few Novas stirred to action as well. They ripped through the Black Armors around them and forged their way toward Li Hao!

When Xu Feng saw the Silver Armor, he set course for his new target. The old man behind him furrowed his brows, following his ward. His attention was held elsewhere before he could catch up and he looked off to the side, at where a Black Armor seemed to be looking at him.

“Sir, let’s just watch first,” transmitted the old man as he came to a halt. “Don’t do anything yet!”

“I know!” Xu Feng answered absentmindedly and continued pushing his way toward Li Hao.

The old man looked at the Black Armor and sighed softly. “What do you want?” he transmitted.

“Nothing, just stand there and don’t move!” He Yong answered. “Your master is strong. He’s a mid Nova and on the so-called Divine Masters Ranking. He’s renowned in the central region, but I don’t care about him! You, you’ll stay here! Don’t blame me for reacting harshly if you move. I may not be able to do anything to you, but when Yuan Shuo comes back and learns that you bullied his disciple, I’ll bet my surname that he beats you to death!”

A formidable powerhouse such as He Yong said that he might not be able to do anything to the old man! The latter remained quiet.

He Yong ignored him; it was just a warning. “Also, martial world rules apply,” he transmitted. “They still apply to you and they also apply to your master. Li Hao is much weaker than him, so I can save him once. You, however, cannot! If your master dies, he dies, understood?”

“He Yong, I’m just visiting home,” the old man transmitted. “I just wanted to take a look at Silver Moon...”

“I don’t want to waste time talking to you! I’ll just put in a little bit of effort to stop you if you insist, but I’ll see if Yuan Shuo will kill you when he returns!”

“......” The old man was speechless. Yuan Shuo! A martial master with only peak Solar strength at the moment was very, very weak in their eyes. And yet, someone like He Yong was saying if I can’t kill you, I’ll wait for Yuan Shuo to come kill you.

Those kinds of words would inspire one to turn up their nose at the speaker, but the old man didn’t treat it as empty boasting. An internal conflict seized him. Even though Xu Feng greatly outmatched Li Hao, what if... something unexpected happened? What should he do if an accident occurred?

If an unwanted development took place and he intervened, would that raise Yuan Shuo’s ire and dissatisfaction? If that guy knew he’d involved himself in a battle involving Li Hao, the old demon would lose his mind and exact retribution! He absolutely would!

The old man took a deep breath and didn’t say anything. He withdrew to the side.

He Yong laughed and casually punched a supernatural to death. “I know a little about your affairs, but don’t forget that you’re still a martial master! You hold yourself with none of the ease of one!”

He vanished from the spot, needing to look in on Li Hao. The only person that he was wary of in the battlefield was this old man. Hong Yitang could handle the rest.

As the old man watched him leave, he turned his sights to Xu Feng close at hand. The young master was approaching Li Hao, wanting to form a plan to study or capture the Silver Armor.

......

Pfft!

Li Hao hacked a Solar into two and suddenly sensed a pair of eyes on him. He looked over to see the guy who’d ruined his moment in grasping the water aura.

Xu Feng! Mid Nova and listed on some ranking. He was so strong that Li Hao was sure to be unable to rival him. Therefore, he ignored the young master. If he couldn’t match the guy, he would only suffer a beating or even be killed. He wanted to locate an initial Nova for a fight.

Apart from this guy and Yuan Xingwu, there were three more Novas among the wandering cultivators. One of them was a mid Nova, the other two were initial Novas. He had his eyes set on one of the two.

Li Hao didn’t want this guy, but this guy wanted him. Xu Feng suddenly darted in front of him when Li Hao next wanted to charge. The mid Nova stood right in his path. Li Hao’s expression turned unpleasant beneath the visor; he was in trouble now. He was just a peak Nova, he stood no chance! There might be hope if he’d grasped a fourth aura, but currently he only had three.

Where was Southern Fist? Didn’t that old guy say he’d let me do as I wish? He should be stepping forward to stop this guy!

“Give it a try, what’s there to be afraid of?” He Yong’s voice sounded by his ear. “He’s a young master of a large clan, a Heaven Favored who improved rapidly and set foot into mid Nova in recent years. He didn’t cross over from marital dao. I think your strength is the equivalent of initial Nova. Even if you can’t defeat him, you can get a sense of how strong the supernaturals on the rankings are.”

Li Hao cursed inwardly. Fucking hell, that’s easy for you to say! That’s a mid Nova you want me to fight, are you kidding me? You told me to take a small risk with an initial Nova, is this a small risk??

This was a death risk!

“Go on, have your fight. I’ll step in if you really can’t take it!”

Li Hao took a deep breath and clenched his teeth, still cursing up a storm. He put everything out of his mind. Fine! I’ll do it! What else can I do now? The three sword auras immediately converged as one.

Xu Feng had just wanted to put the Silver Armor through its paces and see if he could activate the so-called reawakened state. He blinked with surprise—was that... aura? Did Silver Armors know aura? And sword aura at that! There certainly were a lot of swordsmen in the Battle Heaven Army.

Li Hao contemplated for a split second and erupted with the Incantation of the Blade of Blood. Blood qi filled the air, prompting a frown from Xu Feng. He seemed to be familiar with this technique, what was it?

Li Hao melded three auras together and deployed the Incantation, striking without hesitation!

Boom!

It was formidably strong. Xu Feng responded with a surge of ice energy. The longsword bit into a massive ice cube. It was so durable that although it split beneath the sword, a strong recoil traveled up Li Hao’s arm.

“How interesting!” Xu Feng looked at Li Hao. “Why do I think that you’re alive?”

The soldier seemed to be alive, but was that possible?

The young man was quite relaxed. He waved countless ice arrows into existence and charged Li Hao. A smile hung on his face. How fun, this Silver Armor seemed different from the other three. It wasn’t really alive, was it?

If that was the case... that was incredible. Was it a living ancient, or was it someone on the expedition team?

Rumble!!

Countless ice arrows exploded on Li Hao. The young man couldn’t evade in time as Xu Feng was very fast. Ice arrows condensed in the blink of an eye, leaving him no room to react. The young master was much stronger than the supernaturals he’d met before.

Li Hao didn’t make a sound as he jumped up from the ground and stuck with the sword again! The weapon emitted no noise—Ghost Shadow Sword!

Humm!

A sonic boom emitted only after the longsword pierced through the ice. Xu Feng’s eyes widened with surprise!

In the distance, three presences suddenly flared and the Seventh Troop leader’s voice sounded in Li Hao’s mind. “We are about to awaken! If we are unable to defeat the enemy and you live, then you must defend Battle Heaven!”

Li Hao blinked. Boom!

Xu Feng punched with a fist of ice and sealed Li Hao away. Li Hao erupted with internal force and broke out of the ice, but still felt a cold air drape around him. Xu Feng was a mutated water supernatural—an ice supernatural.

There was no time to consider anything else. Li Hao stared at his opponent and transformed his longsword into Stellaris. Silver Armors could use their own weapons—they would be enclosed with the armor’s standard issue weapon. From the outside, it still appeared to be the longsword, but the effects would be vastly different.
