Unbeatable! Invincible! Unparalleled!

The two black silhouette stared at each other with a dumbfounded expression. It took them quite a while to believe what they were seeing.

Didn't we just got an order to scout the capital city that was rumored to be stable?

Then why are the buildings suddenly getting blown apart like that?

"Something must've happened.. let's investigate!"

Shuu!! Shuu!!

The two figures flitted into dark shadows as they swept around the corner before disappearing from their surroundings..

...

"My palace.. my city..." Liu Gongsun Xiaojian wanted to scream and cry if not for her position and dignity as the Emperor that was at stake right then and there.

If one looked at the capital city from above, it would seemed like a colossal giant had left a huge foot print right in the middle of her beautiful Ethereal Winter city, making it look like an ugly stain on the perfect canvas!

Despite the name, the city was not covered with ice, at least not anymore. This was because the cold breeze from the North of the Liu Empire that went around creating snow in the atmosphere, immediately melted before even reaching the ground and turned into vapor from the heat radiated out by the runic formations laid in each of the buildings.

In essence, the runic formations acted as both the dampener and a central heater for the city, by venting the accumulated spiritual Qi from the surrounding into the form of heat!

Thus, since the middle part of the city was now destroyed, the entire connection of the runic formation within the city was cut off, resulting in snow starting to accumulate on the ground!

Hais!

"Now we have to make urgent repairs for the runic formations to work again.." Liu Sheng Duhai sighed as he called a few people and gave them some instructions.

As for the Liu Emperor, it took her a long while to calm herself down.

"Hmph! You are strong indeed. But I never expected you to destroy my city like this! How can you be so relentless?!" she said to Duan Li, a hint of anger still remained in her eyes.

When Duan Li used 50% of his strength, who could've thought that the power level did not scale to her previous assumption?

His power immediately skyrocketed to the Pinnacle stage of the Nascent Soul realm instead of the Late stage!

Realizing that she had gravely miscalculated the potency of someone who cultivated all his three dantian, she quickly wanted to tell Duan Li to stop, but the latter then increased his power further to 60%, causing even her the Emperor, to suddenly bent down to her knees from the sheer pressure of his aura!

Before she could even make sense of the unfathomable power that could force her into that state, Duan Li then pushed to 70% of his full strength, making the pressure exerted on her body increased by several folds, resulting in her face being planted on the ground as if a child's face being pushed into the mud by their grandfather for running around naked!

It was fortunate that everyone was also affected including the Knights and guards, and some were even knocked unconscious! Otherwise, she would not know what will remain of her dignity if they saw her like that.

"Ah? You were the one asking me to do it..." Duan Li scratched his head with mixed feeling. He had to admit that he was excited to see the buildings exploded one after another the more he increased his power, so he was also not free from the guilt.

Shaking his head, Duan Li then took out a superior quality spirit stone.

Wengg!!

"Would this be enough as compensation?" he candidly asked.

Meanwhile, the Liu Emperor and Liu Sheng Duhai's expression froze when they saw what was on Duan Li's hand.

...

"Brother Shen Murong, here.. you take the sword.." Wang Dong passed the legendary Ten Commandment sword to Shen Murong.

"Eh? I don't want to turn into a turtle.. here, you take it Wei Wang!" Shen Murong tossed the sword away as if it was a common sword.

Catching the sword, Wei Wang also almost threw it away for the same reason as Shen Murong, before coming to realization.

"Wait.. maybe this sword will change according to the holder?" he scribbled in the air with his spiritual Qi using his index finger.

"Probably.. it did change when I use my Supreme Turtle Crust technique.. though I must warn that it will take a lot from you.." Wang Dong said, his breathing still heavy.

Out of the three of them, Shen Murong was probably the one with the highest spiritual Qi capacity, but even he would only be able to do two transformations at most before being sucked dry like a salted fish.

As for Wei Wang, he was someone that cultivated mostly agile related skills that don't really require too much spiritual Qi, therefore he has the least spiritual Qi capacity than them. Even if he could transform once, his stamina will probably run out sooner than Wang Dong did before.

"It's fine. As long as it could boost my speed.. stronger enemies will not be a problem." said the look from Wei Wang's face.

"Well, if you said so junior.."

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Right after Wang Dong said this, hurried steps could be heard behind them, swiftly getting closer!

"That must be them! Wei Wang, get ready!" Shen Murong said in an alarmed state.

Since Wang Dong was unfit for battle right now, they would probably have to fight a defensive battle!

Wengg!!

For now, Wei Wang decided to hide the Ten Commandment sword inside his spatial ring and took out a pair of rare daggers to both of his hands.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

"Hold it right there!" a familiar voice sounded from afar.

"Hahahaha! How unexpected to see you here Wang Dong, and in a wretched state too! Where do you think you are going?" Ruo Hen laughed and stared at them in disdain as if looking at some cornered rats.

Wang Dong that had to sit cross-legged on the ground to recuperate his stamina and spiritual Qi opened his eyes.

"Huh? Who are you boi? If your grandmother came looking for me to marry her, don't bother! I like young women!" he said with a genuine confused look.

Pu!

"Y-You!" Ruo Hen choked on his throat and wanted to refute by cursing Wang Dong's ancestor.

"Enough!" a person behind him shouted. It was Princess Doulou Meixiu.

She looked at Wang Dong for a moment before nodding.

"It seems like you three managed to beat the Desert Centipede King before you escaped. Now, where is the Ten Commandment Sword? I don't believe your cultivation realm combined could even graze that monster, let alone knocking it out!" she asked and pointed out.

She is sharp!

"I don't know what you are talking about. I just beat the living daylight out of that worm with my own hands! You should see how it moaned when I penetrated it with my fist! Hahahahahaha!" Wang Dong laughed sneakily as he mentioned this while twerking his eyebrows towards the princess.

Pu!

"Bastard! How dare you be so dirty towards the Princess of the Doulou Empire? You are seeking death!" Ling Shin beside her bellowed angrily with clenched fists.

"Ha! Who are you guys threatening? You dare to bring your army into the lands belonging to our Jiu Empire? This is no different than an act of invasion! Are you guys trying to start a war?" Wang Dong replied, his mocking smile reached to his ears.

The gal of these people! Trying to act like the boss when they are in someone else's house...

"Shut it! So what if the Jiu Empire viewed it as an invasion? Do you think we care? If your empire are feeling threatened by a mere expedition force, just how weak of a display that is towards the other superpowers?" Princess Meixiu scoffed before continuing, "Now, don't play dumb with me. First, you guys poisoned my men at the camp, and now I've lost some good men the moment we entered this ruins. Don't think that you three could get away with this without some form of compensation!"

The moment Shen Murong, Wang Dong and Wei Wang heard this, their eyes slitted into a hostile stare towards the princess and the men behind her.

Arrogant!

BOOMM!!

Wang Dong punched the ground with his fist before standing up. The anger swelling inside him quickly suppressed the extreme fatigue of his body!

With a darkened expression, Wang Dong replied, "We can tolerate it if you mock us. But you dare to mock our empire? Filthy scum!!"

Wang Bloodline activate!

BOOOMMMM!!

The tunnel rattled the moment Wang Dong unleashed his bloodline ability, As people of the mountain, they possessed an extremely resilient body and the ability to absorb spiritual Qi faster than the normal people. With his bloodline now activated, his recovery speed was far swifter than before!

"Brother Wang Dong..." Shen Murong solemnly looked at the state that Wang Dong was currently in.

If I'm not mistaken, the bloodline of Wang has a hefty price in order for it to be activated...

Gritting his teeth, Shen Murong turned his head from sideways to stare at the princess right into her eyes.

"I don't know anything about any Ten Commandment sword and whatever, but I do have one here if you fancy mine!" he pointed to his crotch.

"If you got the skills that is!"

Shen Bloodline activate!

BOOOMMMM!!
