Chapter 69

The sword beam shot straight into the sky, like a meteor, tracing a brilliant and swift trajectory.

Two little babies were on the rooftop watching the stars. Seeing this scene, they immediately cheered.

"Sister, sister, look quickly, there's a meteor!"

"Wow~! It really is a meteor. When you see a meteor, you should make a wish, then your wish will come true."

"Okay! Meteor, I hope you bring peace to the world, so humans, half-beasts, and star beasts can coexist peacefully..."

...

In the southwestern part of Central Province, at the border with Chu Province, the Wanjiang Mountains.

A group of about several hundred people gathered in a corner of the forest.

"This time, the Central Province Defense Army and the Chu Province Defense Army, along with three civilian mercenary companies, are working together. The purpose is to completely eliminate the Beast God Sect, the half-beast organization in these mountains.

To thoroughly destroy the Beast God Sect, a total of sixteen masters and two grandmasters have been mobilized, including three mental masters and one senior healer, six intermediate healers, and four hundred thirty-five innate martial artists.

This lineup has been carefully assembled with the cooperation of several cities, after much effort by the higher-ups.

It's also a rare opportunity for us.

So no matter what, we must bury the Beast God Sect in these Wanjiang Mountains! Do you understand?"

"We understand!"

"Good! Two martial masters lead the way, mental masters observe, advance!"

...

In the underground hall of the Beast God Sect, two stone steles suddenly exploded, startling the gathered followers.

"What's happening?"

The Beast God, seated on a high throne, had an extremely cold expression.

"It's the Enchanting Fox and the Blue Wolf, they've been attacked."

"What! Master Enchanting Fox and Master Blue Wolf have been killed?"

"These damned humans have killed more of our Beast God Sect followers! We must kill them and avenge the two masters!"

"Yes! Counterattack the humans, destroy Jianghai City!"

Just as the Beast God was about to speak, he seemed to sense something and his expression turned even more serious.

"Truly, one trouble after another. Humans have invaded!

It seems we must teach these foolish humans a lesson!

By my command, all followers of the Beast God Sect, prepare for battle!"

With the order given, all the followers in the underground hall rushed madly towards the surface.

"Kill all humans!"

"Use the blood of humans to cleanse the divine might of our Beast God Sect!"

The ground began to tremble slightly, and the troops on the surface suddenly stopped advancing.

"What a big commotion, we've been discovered!"

"Everyone, attention, enter combat mode!"

Just as he finished speaking, a female martial artist in the crowd casually glanced at the sky and couldn't help but ask in confusion:

"Huh? Commander, look quickly, what's that?"

Everyone looked up at the sky and saw a meteor rapidly streaking across, forming a parabola in the sky, and finally landing in front of the group.

First, an extremely bright light ball rose from the ground, followed by a deafening explosion.

Boom—!

The intense explosion caused the ground to tremble, and the shockwave spread out in all directions, violently knocking down tree after tree.

"Everyone, attention, focus your qi in your dantian, steady your mind, and plant your feet firmly. Grandmasters and masters, form a spiritual barrier for defense!"

The commander quickly issued tactical orders, and everyone rapidly followed the tactics. The grandmasters and masters formed a wall of qi in front to resist the shockwave.

Ye Xiao's cultivation level was extremely powerful, with an amplification factor far exceeding ordinary cultivation methods. A single ordinary sword strike already had the strength to fight across levels, and by condensing a large amount of spiritual energy and compressing the power of several moves into one strike, its force was comparable to a true divine master's attack!

Boom—!

The shockwave hit the wall of qi, and even after spreading for several dozen miles, it still made several masters' arms feel numb and their qi and blood surge.

Only the grandmasters and the team members hiding behind were slightly better off, not affected too much.

But even so, everyone was terrified.

What a powerful attack!

It's like divine punishment!

In the face of this attack, their team was as insignificant as a group of ants.

They must remember, their team's strength was not to be underestimated!

But even so, they had no right to boast in the face of this attack.

Fortunately, this attack did not land on their heads; otherwise, even with the defense of grandmasters and masters, none of them would have survived.

The shockwave lasted only an instant, passing by the group and continuing to spread backward, gradually weakening.

But the surrounding devastation revealed the power of that strike!

Trees were blown down by the massive shockwave, and at the center of the explosion, trees were crushed into debris.

A huge mushroom cloud rose from the center of the explosion...

"Quick! Go and check it out!"

The commander immediately gave the order, and the group rapidly advanced. Several grandmasters and masters, moving the fastest, left the team and headed straight for the center of the explosion.

With this explosion, almost all life around was obliterated, so they didn't have to worry about the team members being ambushed.

A few minutes later, the grandmasters arrived first.

When they saw the massive crater, like a heavenly pit, blasted into the ground, they all froze in shock.

The ground was leveled, devoid of greenery and life, leaving only a barren pit. The heat from the explosion was so intense that some of the ground had vitrified.

"This... Who did this?"

"My goodness, this guy has wiped out the entire Beast God Sect!"

"Who? Who could have this power? This level of strength can only be achieved by a divine master!"

...

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, another night had gone by.

Jianghai City was calm, and the entire Central Province was calm.

The news of the Beast God Sect had not spread.

A divine master is not a grandmaster, nor a master; they are at the top level of combat power in the Nine Provinces and the world.

Such beings are extremely rare and highly revered.

Their information and identities must be strictly protected as a secret of the Nine Provinces!

Only a very few people can know about this matter.

And Ye Xiao, carrying fruit, went to the hospital to visit Ning Yuheng.

After yesterday, he had only repaired Ning Yuheng's arm and legs, leaving the rest of his injuries untreated and sending him to the hospital.

The healing ability from the star beast bloodline in his body, combined with the healers at the hospital, would completely heal him.

This way, he wouldn't overly expose himself.
