Chapter 1641: Chapter 1640: Lake City in Peril!
"His junior disciple??"
Qin Feng was taken aback and said, "Does she have other junior disciples? Is it me? But why haven’t I received the medicine materials?"
"It should be you," Shuiyun Immortal said, "At that time, she nearly lost her life while trying to leave the Barrier Layer of the space, and she entrusted us that if she died, we should give the medicine materials to someone called ’Qin Xiaofeng.’ If I’m not mistaken, Qin Xiaofeng should be you."
"Uh..."
Qin Feng scratched his head, unexpectedly she still called him by his nickname, even though he was already grown up.
"Then where is she?"
Qin Feng asked.
"She should have broken through many obstacles and left Kunlun Mist Cloud," Shuiyun Immortal said, "As for why you haven’t received the medicine materials, it’s because they aren’t complete yet; we still need to find Beidou Old Divine Doctor to continue the configuration. I suppose she’s with Beidou Old Divine Doctor now."
"..."
Qin Feng sighed deeply at the news.
He thought that the separation a few years ago meant they each went their own way. He didn’t expect that his senior disciple sister and Beidou Old Divine Doctor were tirelessly working on his bloodline matter all this time, not even knowing what medicine they are developing for him.
Hopefully, in these turbulent times, they are safe and sound...
"Alright, we should hurry up now, let’s part ways here!"
Qin Feng said.
"Alright, we’ll head to Vine Dragon Mountain first!"
Shuiyun Immortal finished speaking and quickly left with the Twelve Wanderers.
Qin Feng summoned the Fire Cloud Bird, allowing Luo Jinhong, who occupied Linglong’s body, and Unrivaled to be positioned in front and behind him, ready to fly towards Lake City...
The Fire Cloud Bird took off, like a rocket!
The extreme speed caused Qin Feng to impulsively embrace Luo Jinhong in front.
Luo Jinhong’s face turned slightly red instantly, saying: "Did Young Master Qin often get this close to Linglong back then? If close, it helps with her soul awakening..."
"Sorry..."
Qin Feng winced, his face tense, "I just feel... it’s too fast!!"
Only then did he remember not to use his cultivation temporarily.
Without the cultivation’s support, he couldn’t withstand the fast flight.
Luo Jinhong and Unrivaled realized the situation too, so they embraced him tightly from front and back to prevent him from falling.
Luckily having refined the Dragon Root, his body was incredibly strong, quickly adapting to the rapid speed.
"Alright, not so tight now..."
Qin Feng said awkwardly.
No choice.
Their tight embrace during such rapid flights made his body feel unusual.
"No way! You lack cultivation now, what if you fall? Have to be tighter!"
Unrivaled tightly held him from behind, pressing against his back.
This made Qin Feng feel suffocated.
What’s worse.
Luo Jinhong was hugging him face-to-face, even closer...
Wanting to break free.
But in high altitudes, Qin Feng didn’t dare act recklessly, letting them continue flying with the embrace. To dispel the bad thoughts seeping into his mind, Qin Feng switched topics, asking: "By the way, it’s been a few days on our trip; how’s the battle situation in Lake City?"
"The situation... is somewhat grim..."
Unrivaled said.
"Oh? How grim?"
Qin Feng’s expression grew serious.
Unrivaled began: "Just yesterday, I received news from Lake City. The previous World Alliance attack turned fiercer, like enraged beasts launching a surge. Lake City has executed the third sweeping tactic. Although there’s some effect compared to the first two, our casualties are also severe."
"Currently, the Four Great Armies are down to seventy thousand from their initial two hundred thousand strength."
"The Heavenly King Palace’s force also reduced to twenty thousand."
"Having executed three major sweeps, the enemy understood our strategies, ceasing the brute force attack and instead initiating a frenzied bombardment against Lake City, aiming to destroy other arrays we’ve set up there. Much of our arrays have been destroyed."
"This morning, Commander Yin Chuan checked with us regarding the situation; from his tone, it seems we’re barely holding on."
"..."
Qin Feng moved his eyebrows, skeptical, "Barely holding on??"
"Yes."
Yin Chuan nodded, "Moreover, Doggo, previously sealed by the Empress, regained his power using special methods. The entire Lake City hangs by a thread!"
"What?!!"
Qin Feng said in shock, "No good! Should’ve let Shuiyun Immortal and them head to Lake City first! Miscalculation..."
"I initially wanted them to go to Lake City before Vine Dragon Mountain..." Unrivaled sighed helplessly, saying, "Nevertheless, perhaps you are right, the situation over at Vine Dragon Mountain might be more severe."
"Then we’ll speed up further!!"
Qin Feng commanded the Fire Cloud Bird, accelerating again, causing Unrivaled and Luo Jinhong to hold him tighter.
No choice.
Lake City hangs by a thread, enduring some suffering means nothing.
As they say, if not me in hell, who will be in hell!
...
Lake City.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The entire Lake City was ablaze with gunfire!!
What once were thriving skyscrapers now lay as ruins, scattered everywhere.
The first sweeping strategy initiated by Demon Beast.
The second sweeping strategy utilized Qingcheng’s Red Fire Stone, empowered with the immortal power of Ning Tingxue, combined with Young Master Bai He’s Great Formation.
The third sweeping strategy, without a strategy at all, saw Heavenly King Palace’s members using elixirs to boost their strength briefly, fighting in a frenzy.
The goal was to intimidate the enemy, to overpower them in momentum!
Though this hard battle indeed had some effects, it’s at the cost of heavy losses on both sides.
Originally expected a respite post this sweep.
But!
These repeated sweeps revealed Lake City’s tactics to the World Alliance, mainly relying on arrays for massive power!
Hence.
This time, they weren’t just attacking.
Instead, they engaged in a relentless airborne bombardment on the whole of Lake City.
Unclear on Lake City’s arrays locations? No problem, just unleash enough firepower for massive destruction.
Lake City’s side initially was unafraid.
When setting the arrays, they contemplated such large-scale destruction, taking measures against it.
However.
The World Alliance’s firepower far exceeded their expectations.
They aimed to demolish this city directly!
At this moment.
Command Room.
Even though the Command Room was concealed in a secret underground lake, they could still feel the overwhelming bombardment.
Everyone in Yin Chuan looked solemn.
If this bombing continues unchecked, Lake City’s peril is imminent!!
