Chapter 427: Out of Control
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Xianyi did not take the lead into the palace but waited at the gate to kill the monsters. But no one else dared to enter if he did not.
Although powerful, he was unable to stop so many organizations from their desire of remains exploration. If he ever attempted to, it would certainly result in a grand battle.
But Li Xianyi did not utter a word to him, still killing gargoyles as if there was no one around. The Class B expert frowned a little but kept quiet.
As the strongest man in the cultivation realm, Li Xianyi had the greatest power of speech. The Phoenix Society certainly had no intention to be the first to anger him in spite of their thirst for the resources inside the palace.
Wait until others took the move. That was the plan of the Phoenix Society.
Lu Shu eyed the front row and Coral’s figure caught his attention. She was standing in a group of the Deities and seemed to be well respected for her high position.
Lu Shu was somehow confused. Was she not a mere Class D?
A person beside Lu Shu asked, “Can you see that Northern European group named the Deities?”
“Oh, they are the Deities?”
“Correct,” the man replied mysteriously, “That girl over there is called Coral. It’s said that after her awakening Odin’s sign of the Gungnir appeared on the back of her neck. She has the highest chance of ascending to Class A in the entire Deities.”
“The sign of the Gungnir?” another person asked back, “She has awoken to Odin’s bloodline?”
“Can’t say for sure. After all, the Deities are quite mysterious. Who knows?”
Only then did Lu Shu finally understand the limelight on Coral inside the Deities. However, he was worried that she was too innocent to handle the killings.
Li Xianyi spent a while longer slashing gargoyles. Along with every move of his invisible aura-blade was new fear generated in those big organizations’ hearts. They had agreed to join forces in resistance, if Li Xianyi was to compete for the relic, but no one dared to disobey him now.
Most of the big organizations had over twenty people, only the heads of the Collection of Gods and the Pledge were standing alone. They had expected to meet their subordinates here but ended up seeing none.
At the moment, they were already raging inside. Apparently their people were killed! However, with no basic communication tools and such a vast land how could they know who did it?
The leader of the Pledge stood out. “When are you done? We want to get in now.”
Li Xianyi gave him a brief glimpse. “Wait.”
Immediately he attracted looks of admiration from the individual Practitioners below. He had become their ideal selves, the height they dreamed to ever achieve.
“There are too many gargoyles! What on Earth is inside the palace?”
“Never mind. Let’s wait and see till the director kills all the gargoyles.”
“Can he?”
“Without a doubt!”
The old man had his reasons for the slaughter. At the moment, it remained unclear what was inside the palace. Whoever entered had to face those monsters. Thus, it would be much easier with fewer gargoyles inside.
At this moment, over a thousand gargoyles were approaching from the air, seizing every individual Practitioner by terror.
To their surprise, however, a fat man was chasing close behind, shouting at the top of his lungs, “Don’t go, brothers! Let’s have more fun!”
Li Xianyi’s face darkened. It was Li Yixiao!
Individual Practitioners almost jumped out of their skin at the sight of so many gargoyles. It looked like the Apocalypse. “How many gargoyles are there actually?!”
“How come they gather together?!”
“I heard that somebody was causing trouble with infinite gargoyles…”
“What the heck?!”
“Can the major director of the Golden Foundation take down so many of them?”
“It will be hard…”
Pinning down one gargoyle was an easy feat for Li Xianyi, but with thousands together… To tell the truth, he could, but it would consume too much of his mana. What if someone took advantage of the situation when his power was exhausted? Recognizing the severity, Li Xianyi immediately jumped high to avoid the crowd.
Remains exploration took priority at the moment. If not, Li Xianyi would be more than willing to give Li Yixiao a good thrashing!
Li Yixiao sighed pitifully as his backers disappeared into the darkness in the palace through its main gate. “Why did you leave me like that?!”
In the meantime, Lu Shu pulled down the brim of his cap and tugged up his mask. He already heard people discussing about that fellow…
At this instant, to everyone’s surprise, Li Yixiao dashed into the crowd decisively like a small hill, as if still running after the gargoyles!
He continued yelling, “Don’t leave me, brothers!”
Then, in everyone’s astonished stares, Li Yixiao ran past the individual Practitioners, through the front row of big organizations and into the palace without even a look at Li Xianyi…
Those organizations fell silent… So he entered, LIKE THAT?!
Then, Li Yixiao’s laughter came out from inside the palace. “HAHAHAHAHAHAHA let me have a rest HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, I’m going to get that relic, b*tches!”
Li Xianyi, “???”
Big organizations, “???”
The rest, “???”
Was there something wrong with his brain?!
Lu Shu took a while before recovering from his shock. Was that the legendary technique of laughing past your obstacles?!
As expected, Li Yixiao was super unreliable, anytime, anywhere. When Lu Shu almost thought that Li Yixiao had forgotten their mission here, surprisingly the latter had made it into the palace in such an unfashionable manner.
Honestly speaking, just now Li Xianyi had the recurring urge to stab him when Li Yixiao was entering. But he did not…
A thought suddenly crossed Lu Shu’s mind. Did Nie Ting really send Li Yixiao here for the relic, or was his actual intention irritating Practitioners from across the world?
Wait a moment, so why was he here too?!
Lu Shu bit his gum, are you kidding me, Heavenly King Nie?
Although it was true that Li Yixiao almost forced him to come, Nie Ting was definitely aware of that!
All of a sudden, a commotion started in the crowd. The young Class B expert of the Phoenix Society curled his lips and led his team into the palace. Following them everyone else moved forward as well.
The situation had gone out of control!
