Chapter 983: Chapter 744 Old Friends
```
The group facing Long Yi had ashen faces, one by one. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to follow this rule; if possible, they wished they could leave right now! But they didn’t dare. What if Delas won after they left? If Delas won, his power would surely skyrocket. And what good could come to those who had abandoned their teacher? No! Absolutely not!
It was precisely because they feared this outcome that no one dared to leave at that moment.
"Your rules?" Delas burst into laughter, "This is my planet, and I set the rules here! My rule is simple, those who trespass my territory shall die! None of you are leaving today!"
Hearing Delas’s words, Felpe’s anger flared up instantly. He stepped forward, glaring at the distant Delas and roared, "Trespassing your territory? You ungrateful bastard, if it weren’t for me saving your life twice, you wouldn’t have any territory to speak of! Today, I want to see what tricks you have up your sleeve since you failed to kill me by surprise last time!"
Upon hearing Felpe, Delas started to look seriously at the young man standing beside Long Yi.
And when he looked carefully, he was as shocked as if he’d seen a ghost!
"You’re Felpe!"
Delas had never expected the young man to be Felpe because the Felpe he remembered was an old man with a head injury, always irascible but whose strength had remained stagnant. The Felpe before him not only looked young, but the mana emanating from him was even more formidable than before!
"Of course I’m Felpe! We grew up together, old friend! Have you forgotten what I look like?" Felpe said angrily.
Delas was stunned into silence. Forget you? The last time you looked like this was hundreds of years ago! Who would expect you to suddenly become younger?
"Felpe! It’s wonderful you’re alright! I’ve always been worried about you! Actually, I was only pretending back then to fool Long Yi and the others! The device wouldn’t have harmed you at all!" Delas spoke urgently.
"Bullshit! It’s been so long you’ve forgotten, right? We seized that device together from another ancient powerhouse. The lethality of that device was enough to kill me ten times over!" shouted Felpe.
Delas’s face turned ugly at once. Indeed, these matters were too ancient. Hundreds of years were enough to blur memories, and Delas had even forgotten the real origin of that device!
Seeing his acting fail, Delas could only shake his head.
"Sigh, I originally planned for us to continue our friendship, but it seems you no longer think of me as a friend," said Delas with a sigh.
"Have you no shame, you bastard! You tried to kill me in the past, now you’re spouting lies with wide-open eyes, and you dare talk to me about friendship? You infuriate me! I will kill you today!" Mana expanded, and flames raged around him!
"Kill me? I’m afraid you’re not capable! In your younger days, you were indeed a genius, but too bad your brain is damaged! You are no match for me now!" Delas sneered.
"I was a genius when I was young, and I am still a genius even with a damaged brain! And now, I have recovered!"
Boom!
Flames rose to the sky, unprecedented mana surged, and several of Delas’s disciples nearby suddenly had red eyes, breathing heavily as if incensed. And the next moment, they spontaneously combusted!
"Behold the new talent I’ve acquired in just a few days amidst my fury! Rage-fueled Conflagration!"
With that, Felpe charged out, and any of Delas’s disciples who came close were enveloped by a mysterious wrath and then burst into fireballs!
"No one approach him! Target Long Yi and Ai Lin, and leave Felpe to me!" roared Delas.
Immediately, everyone cleared a path for Felpe, who hurtled towards Delas like a fiery comet.
Long Yi saw Delas’s disciples rushing towards him and exchanged a glance with Ai Lin.
"We’re being underestimated," said Long Yi.
"No matter, let’s make them take us seriously again," said Ai Lin.
"Come! Attack!"
With a roar, the Red Demon Scorpion withstood the first wave of magic attacks with its runic armor, and a poisonous beam swept out, instantly cutting down swathes of people who screamed as they fell to the ground. Little Zi summoned thirteen Female Demon avatars, attacking in another direction. Gigantic ice spears paved the way, and Mental Impact was unleashed without reservation, skewering the dazed disciples like candied haws on ice spears.
Long Yi drew his Cosmic Stone Greatsword, where Fighting Aura and Mana intertwined to form a light arc with destructive undulations. The arc swept through the crowd, shattering shields and eliciting screams of agony.
All this was merely clearing the way for Ai Lin’s magic.
Ai Lin floated in midair, her silver wings spread to their fullest. Cosmic Stone shards all over her body shone brilliantly, Arrays constantly arranged and operational, focusing her unprecedented mana into a cohesive form.
Above the sky, a light orb took shape. And it kept expanding, growing larger and larger!
"Ship Cannon Technique, Ultimate Improved Enhanced Version!"
With a soft cry, Ai Lin’s hands came together. The Ship Cannon Technique, originally invented by Landers and Gridis, underwent a qualitative transformation.
