239: Annihilation

"Flame Dome!"

Above the dark alleyway, a great sun slammed down onto the head of this four-meter-tall Wraith, while the other Wraiths were also caught in the blast.

"Boom~~"

The terrifying impact destroyed the walls on both sides, shattering countless panes of glass.

"This way!"

On the roof of a residential building, a figure made of fire beckoned to everyone.

"Who are you?"

"Su Nuo, are you an idiot? At a time like this, you're still asking who it is? Just run first," Liu Jing shouted as he ran towards the flaming figure.

The other three followed in a hurry. Seeing that they were out of danger, Fan Bai swung his sword once more to slow down the pursuing Wraiths before following after them.

The five of them followed Xiao Weiqing, weaving through the narrow streets.

Gradually, they noticed fewer and fewer Wraiths behind them, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

After leading them to the intersection of the South 5th Ring and West 5th Ring, Xiao Weiqing finally stopped, deactivated his Flame True Body, and revealed his true appearance.

"Brother Bai, I didn't expect to see you in such a pathetic state when we met again."

"It really is you."

Fan Bai stepped forward and gave Xiao Weiqing a punch. "You brat, did you see us earlier and deliberately wait to watch Brother Bai make a fool of himself?"

"Haha..."

"Brother Bai, I really didn't. I was waiting for someone else. I didn't expect you guys to go so deep and get surrounded."

Liu Jing stepped forward and said, "It's all my fault. I accidentally provoked those two big guys."

Fan Bai waved his hand. "I told you it wasn't your fault. It was my decision to insist on coming to the 4th Ring."

"Xiao Weiqing, I owe you a favor this time."

"Me too."

"Me too. I'm Su Nuo. Just give me a shout if you need anything."

The remaining two also expressed their gratitude one after another.

"By the way, Weiqing, you said you were waiting for someone. Do you have other companions?" Fan Bai asked.

"Brother Bai, I am waiting for someone, but not a companion. It's an enemy."

Fan Bai narrowed his eyes. "An enemy? Who?"

"Night Amber."

"Night Amber?"

"What? Did he provoke you?"

Xiao Weiqing nodded, murderous intent in his eyes, and recounted what had happened earlier.

Fan Bai's eyebrows shot up. "That son of a bitch! Where is he?"

"In the South 5th Ring, about 20 kilometers from here."

"Let's go. I'll slaughter them for you."

Xiao Weiqing looked surprised. "Won't there be any problems?"

Night Amber was highly ranked in the Training Camp and had Fourth Realm Peak strength. He was reportedly preparing for a Second Awakening. This level of strength made him an absolute Genius of the Tianlang Empire.

Even Xiao Weiqing only planned to kill the others; as for Night Amber, he would kill him if possible.

If he couldn't, there would be other opportunities in the future.

Xiao Weiqing didn't doubt Fan Bai's strength, but he was mainly afraid of causing him trouble.

Fan Bai snorted coldly. "What problems? You don't think we have a good relationship with the Tianlang Empire, do you? Usually, I don't bother with them, but since they've delivered themselves to our door, I'll let them know why the flowers are so red!"

Xiao Weiqing said, "But didn't the Elf Divine Envoy say not to harm each other within the Ruins, or else suffer the consequences?"

"If you're caught, then you suffer the consequences. If you're not caught, who would know?"

"Besides, even if we're caught, at most we'll be expelled because such behavior hinders the Temple from obtaining divine charm. But you forgot, I'm leaving next week anyway."

"I see."

Fan Bai said, "Lead the way. The four of you wait here."

"Brother Bai, we're coming too. Night Amber has quite a few people with him," Liu Jing said hurriedly.

Fan Bai sneered. "No matter how many Fourth Realms there are, they're still just Fourth Realms. When it comes to dealing with these Wraiths, I might not be as good as you, but against Night Amber's group, it won't take much effort."

The other four stayed behind.

Fan Bai followed Xiao Weiqing away, heading toward the central street of the South 5th Ring.

Inside a room.

Only nine people remained in Night Amber's team.

In the battle with the four-meter Wraith just now, two of the three Spirit Cultivators were injured, and they were currently forced to rest and recover.

"Split these among yourselves."

Night Amber entered the room holding an Energy Ball the size of a soccer ball.

On the ground were several three-inch Energy Balls and dozens of one-inch Energy Balls.

The two Fourth Realm cultivators split the three-inch Energy Balls, while the other six divided the rest.

Although there were many, the total only amounted to 200 units. Splitting it among six people, each wouldn't even get 40 units, but they didn't dare to object.

Tap~ Tap~~

Tap~~ Tap~~

Outside in the street.

Rhythmic footsteps rang out, breaking the silence of the night.

The people inside the room looked at each other with a bad premonition. Anyone who walked outside so blatantly was clearly not someone to be trifled with.

Night Amber also walked out of the room.

"Brother Hu."

Night Amber raised his hand, stopping his companion from speaking.

Silence.

The footsteps outside stopped, less than twenty meters away from them.

On the street.

Fan Bai stood with his arms crossed, a longsword strapped to his back.

"Xiao Weiqing, set it ablaze!"

Xiao Weiqing raised his hand, and a golden fireball soared into the sky. By the time it reached the roof, it was over thirty meters wide.

"Bang~~"

Right then.

A window was smashed open, and a figure flew out.

"Trying to run?"

Fan Bai's longsword left its sheath, a flash of cold light followed, and a head was sent flying.

The fireball in the sky didn't crash down directly; instead, it enveloped the three-story building like a protective shield.

"Swoosh~~ Swoosh~~"

Another figure flew out—it was Night Amber.

Seeing Xiao Weiqing and Fan Bai together, Night Amber knew things were bad.

"Fan Bai, what is the meaning of this?"

Fan Bai didn't speak, his murderous intent completely unconcealed.

"You want to kill me?"

"Aren't you afraid of the Temple's punishment?"

With disdain and contempt in his eyes, Fan Bai walked toward Night Amber with his sword.

On the other side.

Xiao Weiqing's Samadhi True Fire began to invade the three-story building.

"Ah~~"

"Ah~~~"

The screams from inside the building made Night Amber's heart skip a beat.

"Fan Bai, don't think I'm an easy target."

Fan Bai sneered, "Only those with a guilty conscience put on such a bravado to hide the fear in their hearts."

Swoosh~ Swoosh!!

In a flash of white light, Fan Bai instantly appeared beside Night Amber.

Shing~

A cold light cut through the night, severing Night Amber's arm.

Blood sprayed!

Night Amber's eyes widened. Clutching his severed arm, he retreated continuously as the aura of death enveloped his heart. He hadn't expected the strength gap between him, a Fourth Realm Peak, and Fan Bai, who had just entered the Fifth Realm, to be so massive.

He couldn't even withstand a single move.

Fan Bai's sword speed just now was too fast, so fast it was impossible to see.

"What should I do?"

"Am I going to die here?"

"No, I can't die here."

Catching sight of Xiao Weiqing out of the corner of his eye, Night Amber endured the pain and lunged toward him.

However.

A streak of white frost suddenly appeared before his eyes.

Pfft!

With a thud, Night Amber collapsed to the ground, desperately clutching his throat, but he still couldn't stop the gushing blood.

Looking at Xiao Weiqing's cold gaze, Night Amber slowly closed his eyes. He couldn't understand why provoking a newcomer to the Training Camp would lead to such an end.

Rumble!~~~

The three-story building exploded completely.

The flames dissipated, leaving behind seven corpses that were nearly burnt to ashes.

"Brother Bai, this is for you!"

Xiao Weiqing handed a foot-wide Energy Ball to Fan Bai.

"Hey, no need to be so polite."

Among the pile of ashes, Xiao Weiqing rummaged and found several more Energy Balls, though they were only the size of ping-pong balls.

"No one escaped, right?"

"No. There were seven inside, plus the two you killed, making nine in total."

This matched the number of people Xiao Weiqing had observed during the day.

"Then let's go. We made quite a bit of noise."
