Chapter 6152: Sneak Attack!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lion King grew impatient and frowned, saying, “Enough. We’ve tested enough. It’s time for us to act. Kill the remaining people and capture that Young Master Hong Long!”
“Yes!” Xijiu, who had climbed up from the ground, did not dare to show resentment and only respectfully accepted the order.
They didn’t know that everything was guided by Jian Wushuang.
All to lure them out.
If they wanted to rely on the monsters to test them, Jian Wushuang would not give them the chance.
If dozens of demigod monsters really came, Hu Qing would definitely reveal his true divine power, and then the opponents would be scared away or come back with more precautions, which would be bad.
The enemy was also in the dark, so they had to be more careful.
Caution could be the key to eternal safety!
“Hmm?” Jian Wushuang’s mind power detected several terrifying auras quietly approaching them. As soon as they entered his mind power range, he noticed their movements.
“Everyone, the fish have taken the bait!”
Everyone understood what this meant.
Only the people around Young Master Hong Long were still foolishly dealing with those monsters.
This time, saving the other party was enough for them to kneel and thank him.
If it weren’t for the Beast God Weapon, he wouldn’t have bothered to act as a bodyguard for the other party.
The key was that this time the situation had escalated.
They had encountered the ambushing Star Field bandits.
That terrifying aura was exactly like the Star Field bandits Young Master Hong Long had described.
However, the person Jian Wushuang expected to master the Starry Sky divine power did not seem to be present, or perhaps no one had mastered the Starry Sky divine power.
If they were here, it could have compensated for his losses this time.
Buzz!
Hu Qing was the first to start gathering energy.
At the moment the Star Field bandits approached, he took the lead and caught them off guard.
“Hmm?” Lion King, the leader of the bandits, frowned and discovered that Hu Qing’s divine power was not inferior to his own, even surpassing 50 million.
With just a clash of stances, he was pushed back.
A massive aura exploded.
Young Master Hong Long was also stunned.
Seeing Lion King, he realized they had been tricked.
“Forget about those monsters, retreat first!” His reaction was quick. The sudden appearance of the Star Field bandits, combined with the burst of powerful divine power from Hu Qing and the others, left him uneasy.
But retreating now?
It was already too late.
The Star Field bandits were not alone.
Lion King was held back by Hu Qing, while the other bandits charged at Elder Zhuge and Guest Official Shangyang.
For a time, a fierce battle erupted around them.
Guard Qingxuan shook off the monsters and came to Young Master Hong Long’s side.
At this moment, she had to ensure the young master’s safety and could not leave his side.
“Brother Wu Li is so strong!” Young Master Hong Long was also stunned.
Besides Hu Qing, Wu Li’s divine power also reached about a demigod level.
With a wooden sword, he had toppled several Star Field bandits.
Divine Wood King and Wu Zuo also possessed formidable divine power exceeding 40 million. They could barely hold off those Star Field bandits.
Their treasures and divine bodies were not inferior.
However, Elder Zhuge was in trouble. He not only had to deal with the demigod monster but was also besieged by two Star Field bandits.
Only Jian Wushuang was the most relaxed, standing behind Young Master Hong Long, without any intention of making a move.
Instead, he was observing these Star Field bandits.
The Lion King, with about 53 million divine power, was fighting evenly with Hu Qing’s future self.
The other party couldn’t afford to prolong the fight.
Otherwise, if Young Master Hong Long’s father arrived, they would all be doomed.
“Hong Long, have you notified your father?” Jian Wushuang asked sideways.
Seeing the embarrassed look on Young Master Hong Long’s face, he realized something was wrong.
The two only exchanged glances without saying much.
For fear of alarming others.
Young Master Hong Long immediately transmitted a distress signal to the outside world, only to find that his mind power could not pass through the token.
This place already had a chaotic spacetime, and with the barrier of the formation, the only way to communicate with the outside was through his special token.
Now that the token was also isolated, he could only hope that his father could sense the commotion here.
What he didn’t know was that the Lion King had long used a special secret method to envelop the spacetime canyon in his formation. Now, no one from the outside could come in, and they couldn’t think of leaving either.
The grand formation here had effectively added to the Lion King’s dowry.
Instead, it would block anyone from the outside trying to enter.
“Looks like they came prepared!” Jian Wushuang remained calm. The combat power displayed was something Hu Qing alone could handle.
There was nothing to fear.
Since they couldn’t leave, they might as well take down the opponent!
“Hu Qing, take him down!”
Hearing this, Hu Qing, who was entangled with the Lion King, retreated half a step, his brilliance intensifying.
His future self ascended once more, jumping from 50 million to 60 million.
This terrifying divine power made even Jian Wushuang gasp.
He hadn’t expected the second-tier Future Self that Hu Qing had created to be so powerful.
With 60 million divine power, just a single encounter left Lion King severely injured.
Feeling the intense loss of his divine body, Lion King was stunned, “Who are you to possess 60 million divine power?”
“Who I am is none of your concern!”
Hu Qing did not pause, raising his hand once more to strike Lion King.
The first strike had already severely injured the Lion King, and the second shattered his divine body entirely.
“It’s over, I will undoubtedly die with a third strike!” Lion King was terrified, his golden armor shattered.
With 60 million divine power, one could claim a territory in many star fields and become a lord.
As a star field bandit, he didn’t dare to provoke such an entity!
This time, he was doomed.
Their divine power was mediocre at best, sufficient to handle someone like the Ninth Tribulation Realm Hong Long, but against a powerful demigod, they were sure to fail.
A perfect plan, ultimately defeated by divine power.
Unwillingness filled his heart!
“It seems I still have to ask for help from His Majesty!” Lion King’s eyes flickered. He took out a token and crushed it instantly.
Hu Qing noticed Lion King’s action and tried to stop him, but it was too late. He could only continue attacking Lion King.
But as his palm fell, Lion King’s figure vanished in an instant.
“It’s a spacetime token, he actually has a spacetime token!” Hong Long shouted in surprise.
Hu Qing’s second outburst alone was enough to amaze him. He hadn’t expected Lion King, with only 50 million divine power, to possess a spacetime token.
That was a treasure that could tear open spacetime. Once torn, one could escape at will.
Even in this spacetime gorge, he could quickly leave.
Such a life-saving super treasure, he didn’t have it. He had only heard his father mention it once.
Now, it was the first time he saw it.
Fortunately, it was used by the opponent to escape.
They were safe too.
Seeing the opponent escape, Hu Qing felt some regret.
Despite his usual politeness, he had no mercy for star field bandits who committed arson and looting.
Lion King had escaped.
But those black-clad bandits he left behind did not have spacetime tokens.
Hu Qing raised his hand, his fingers pointed directly at the star field bandits, killing them instantly.
With just a single point, he killed them in an instant.
