Chapter 588: Chapter 589: Repel the Enemy_1

"What’s wrong?"

Feeling sufficiently far away, Guo Huai finally let out a sigh of relief, leaned against the trunk of a nearby tree and took deep breaths. Mo Ling looked at Guo Huai with some confusion, and after a moment, Guo Huai said resignedly,

"Just now, there was a Legendary Level being ahead. I’m not sure if it is our enemy, but..."

He glanced at the White Wolf Deity, unsure if it would help should they provoke a Legendary Level existence. As for Yao Yin, in his eyes, she did not have the strength to withstand a Legendary Level being.

"Legendary Level?"

Liu Wenli was somewhat puzzled, but Wei Dingwu had heard the others explain their ranking system before and said thoughtfully,

"According to their ranking system, our Divine Lord would be at the Legendary Level. The Legendary Level is just a stronger existence than that."

"That’s a Legendary Level? Then, you kids really aren’t its match, and besides, that person from Nanyu isn’t here, at least his aura is different."

The middle-aged man said with a grave expression. At that moment, a roar came from ahead, and a thick, earth-colored shield enveloped the area where the Legendary Level being was just now. The sound of trees falling could be continuously heard nearby. The middle-aged man guessed what had happened and said with some surprise,

"Are there actually people daring to engage in close combat with a Legendary Level being?"

"Is the Legendary Level very special?"

Wei Dingwu asked with some confusion. At this moment, because of the recent meteor shower, the battle between both sides had been forcibly halted. There were no other enemies nearby, and Wei Dingwu was not certain whether the now-calm sky would drop more meteorites, so he dared not continue searching for the enemy.

After a moment of thought, the middle-aged man said,

"Hard to say. I haven’t seen many beings of that caliber, but they are mostly very strong and terrifying, especially those with Domains. Within a Domain, many powers can be rewritten, how should I put it."

"If you are not of an equal level, you simply cannot intervene in their battles. To those beings, any existence weaker than them would be suppressed by the Domain. However, the establishment of a Domain takes time, and it also cannot move. Otherwise, just by standing there, they would be unstoppable."

"I think we might need to go and take a look."

Yao Yin suggested, hearing the intermittent roars. Hua Yiyou asked with some confusion,

"Is that... Feng Yuan’s cry?"

Guo Huai looked towards the direction of the warning, realizing that the warning was no longer visible, and after a moment said,

"I’ll lead the way. If we encounter that Legendary Level being, we’ll avoid it."

"He’s here too?"

Wei Dingwu was somewhat surprised. Having not seen Feng Yuan before, she thought he was separated from them due to other matters, not expecting him to also be involved in this fight.

"Damn it, what exactly is this creature?"

The man clad in the general’s armor stared fiercely at the demon in front of him. The enemy had torn his Divine Lord’s defenses with bare hands and was now overpowering his Divine Lord.

"Leave or... die!"

The demon, shrouded in rolling Black Mist with crimson eyes, slowly pushed out a few words towards the great general. After glancing at the severely injured Divine Lord, the great general, grinding his teeth, glared at the demon and, noticing the Divine Lord could still move, hurriedly carried him off into the distance.

"Why did you let him go?"

Yao Yin’s dissatisfied voice sounded from behind the demon. Turning to look at Yao Yin and her companions, Devil Feng Yuan said irritably,

"What else could I have done, kill him?"

"Tch, such needless mercy."

"My goal isn’t to kill. As long as I can ensure the successful evacuation of Nanyu City, that’s enough."

Devil Feng Yuan stated matter-of-factly. Wei Dingwu asked in confusion,

"Ensure the successful evacuation of Nanyu City? Why would you do that? You’re not from Nanyu Kingdom..."

Devil Feng Yuan scratched his face with his index finger and said,

"What’s really important is that I don’t want to see two interesting characters die in such a place."

"Ugh, honestly, I kind of feel annoyed being called an ’interesting character’ by you～"

The middle-aged man said jokingly as Mo Li stared at Devil Feng Yuan,

"Is Nanyu really going to be fine just by driving the people back?"

"Haven’t you noticed the city is on the move? Even for them, their real objective isn’t to annihilate the Allied Army here, is it? Otherwise, why go through all the trouble? Wouldn’t it be better to engage in guerrilla warfare?"

"Nanyu can’t withstand a prolonged guerrilla war..."

Wei Dingwu said helplessly. The territory of Nanyu Kingdom was too small, and there were too many countries eyeing them like tigers, surrounded by enemies on all sides. They didn’t even have the qualifications to engage in guerrilla warfare. Let’s not forget those Legendary Level existences that could cause widespread environmental destruction. If it really came down to guerrilla warfare, should the enemy get enraged and decide to extensively damage the natural environment within Nanyu Kingdom, they would be utterly powerless to stop them.

"The city is on the move?"

Reminded by Feng Yuan, Guo Huai finally looked toward the skies, but the starry sky was unusually dim, making it impossible to clearly see what was happening in the direction of Nanyu City. Feng Yuan said with confusion,

"You didn’t know? Kavieng is using its power to move the entirety of Nanyu City. Remember the jade mountain from before? That’s what’s protecting the ground beneath Nanyu City from shattering outright, kind of like a flowerpot holding the city within, and then moving the whole thing."

"Wait a minute! I remember they were going to set sail! Don’t tell me Kavieng can directly take Nanyu City to sea!"

"What else? Compared to ships, moving the city itself isn’t safer? And as long as there are enough Wood Spirit Beasts, even food won’t be an issue for a short time."

"But if you have that ability, you could completely defend Nanyu Kingdom, right?"

Guo Huai was somewhat puzzled. Piloting the city like this didn’t seem like something even a Legendary Level being could do. If it were a Sacred Beast Level? That’s the highest level beneath the Divine Beasts. Unless every country had a Divine Beast backing them, how could it not sustain a small Nanyu Kingdom?

"It can be defended, but it’s useless. While top-tier combat power is important, high-end combat power is indispensable. Nanyu lacks high-end combatants. Unless they hole up in Nanyu City, even a small kingdom like Nanyu is too much for a single Sacred Beast Level being to protect."

"Wasn’t that guy just now a Legendary Level being? If others can dispatch him to attack Nanyu, what do you think that signifies?"

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the middle-aged man and Wei Dingwu both sighed. As Feng Yuan had said, Nanyu’s high-end combat power wasn’t robust, and defending the kingdom would indeed be difficult. Otherwise, why would Wei Dingwu, a Legendary Level being, be known as the ’Warrior Goddess’?

With a swing of her greatsword, Liu Wenli said calmly,

"Who cares, as long as she makes it through this ordeal. Don’t you forget what you’ve promised."

Reminded by Liu Wenli, Wei Dingwu froze for a moment, then recalling the words he had once said, he smiled and stated,

"Alright then～Thank you～"

"Ahahaha～the little promises of young people, huh～"

The middle-aged man teased, gripping his halberd tightly. He glanced at Yao Yin while Devil Feng Yuan’s massive hand brushed over her shoulder, placing a bright yellow fluffy thing in front of her, saying,

"Please, take care of this one for me."

"What’s wrong with it?"

Yao Yin asked in bewilderment, looking at Xiao Ji, who looked listless and collapsed on the ground. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said helplessly,

"It’s because it recklessly used its ultimate move. It even dared to release a special move. If I hadn’t forcefully interrupted it, it would’ve been more than just exhausted."

Xiao Ji weakly voiced its discontent while lying on the ground. Mo Ling picked up Xiao Ji, puzzled,

"Special move?"

"The fireball barrage from earlier, was it Xiao Ji who created that?"

Guo Huai understood that the so-called special move was probably exclusive to Divine Beasts, and although Xiao Ji was not yet at Divine Beast Level, it had the potential and therefore could prematurely use moves exclusive to Divine Beasts, which wasn’t too surprising.

"Yes, I have no idea how it even understood that move; it’s not something it should be using at its current level. Not even with Legendary Level power would it be successful."

The spectral Agunas commented, swishing its tail,

"That’s not necessarily true, maybe it just didn’t control the power well initially."
