Chapter 428: Battle!
Chapter 428: Battle!
December 16, 2024
As the old woman spoke, all eyes fell upon the elderly man from the Gu family.
It was undeniable that the situation was somewhat comical.
On both sides were white-haired elders, yet one of them was referred to as a youngster.
The elder snorted coldly, his eyes filled with discontent.
"What, you don't agree?"
The old woman chuckled, "When I, this old hag, achieved the Supreme Being status, you were still a stinky brat with milk on your breath."
"So what?"
The Gu family elder spoke up, "Wan Lin, your era has long passed. Even you, after that great war, how much strength do you have left?"
He had anticipated the old woman's arrival, as this was the Resistance Army's territory.
It was undeniable that Wan Lin, at her peak, was stronger than him, a Third-Rank Supreme Being. But in that war several decades ago, almost all the Supreme Beings of the Resistance Army perished. Even those who survived were gravely injured.
That was one reason.
Secondly, he had brought with him a Seventh-Rank High-Grade Treasure, the Thunder Spear, which, when used, had a power comparable to the strongest attack of a Third-Rank Supreme Being.
It wasn't that he didn't want to bring a more powerful treasure, but this was already the second-strongest treasure of the Gu family. The most powerful one could only be used in a life-or-death situation.
As for Wan Lin, just as mentioned earlier, that war was too dangerous. Even those who survived were gravely injured, so it was evident that her treasures were damaged during that time.
In summary, he believed he had a chance to fight, and even defeat her!
"Gu Dechang had average talent and never reached the Supreme Being realm in his entire life. Fortunately, he had two promising sons, but they both turned out to be ill-mannered, addressing their elders by name."
The old woman shook her head repeatedly, her eyes filled with disappointment.
"Enough."
The elder interrupted him, "I didn't come here to waste words with you. Out of respect for you, if you return the Gu family's Tranquilizing Orb and hand over that youngster and his family to us, the rest of you can leave."
"Uncle Grandson?"
Gu Tianyuan, standing beside him, revealed a reluctant expression.
"Shut up."
The elder spat out two words.
"Master, Jiang Xiaoxiong is very important to us, and we've already promised him. We can't go back on our word." Chu Feng quickly added.
"Yes, Grand Leader." Qin Elder nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"You really think this old lady is a fool."
The old woman glanced at them and then pointed at the Gu family elder, "Don't be fooled by his young age; his mind is sinister. He's trying to probe my strength. If I agree to his terms, he'll immediately attack us."
Upon hearing this, a strange glint flashed in the elder's eyes.
Indeed, he had such thoughts in mind.
If he could kill Wan Lin, even though she was a Supreme Being from the previous era, it would still make the entire Inner District look upon the Gu family with newfound respect.
"Youngster, since you've given me a choice, I'll give you one too. Now, leave with your lackeys, and I'll pretend nothing happened."
"Impossible."
The elder uttered three words, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Fine, it seems like you're determined to fight me today.
Wan Lin's voice turned cold.
"Indeed."
The elder glanced at Jiang Cheng and said, "I know this kid is stalling for time, waiting for you. But I didn't expose him because I wanted to wait for you to arrive and capture all of you rebels."
As he spoke, a two-meter-long battle spear appeared in his hand, emitting constant flashes of electricity that flowed from the spearhead down its body.
"The Thunder Spear?"
The old woman instantly recognized the origins of the spear, and her expression turned grave.
"No wonder he dares to take action against me. He must have something to rely on."
"Indeed!"
Suddenly, the elder pointed the spear at the old woman, his white hair billowing.
"Wan Lin, I'll give you one last chance. Surrender peacefully, or don't blame me for being ruthless and killing all of you!"
The members of the Gu family watched with awe.
This was the strength of their patriarch! Even if the opponent was a Supreme Being, what could they do?
Hundreds of mecha pilots in the surrounding area looked on with envy from the bottom of their hearts.
Was this the might of a Supreme Being? Indeed, with a mecha comparable to a Grandmaster, there would naturally be a mecha comparable to a Supreme Being.
However, that kind of mecha, being hundreds of meters tall and not very agile, might not necessarily be a match for a Supreme Being in a one-on-one fight.
"The young people these days are truly arrogant."
The old woman sighed, "Oh well, since it's come to this, I'll teach you a lesson today, young lady, on why you should respect your elders."
As her words fell, a small sword appeared in her palm.
It was a blood-red sword, barely ten centimeters long, and what was most astonishing was that it was a broken sword!
"Hahahaha!"
A burst of laughter erupted around them.
Gu Tianyuan and the others looked at her as if she were an idiot.
Had this old woman gone mad? She was actually using a damaged treasure?
Who did she think she was?
"Elder Chen, this time, I need your help again."
The old woman's eyes turned sorrowful as she spoke to the broken sword in her hand.
"Nonsense!"
The Gu family elder's patience had run out, and he shouted.
"Die!"
In an instant, countless bolts of lightning as thick as thighs shot out from the tip of the lightning spear, roaring towards the old woman.
The dazzling lightning was almost blinding.
Inside the dozens of mechas in the distance, alarms sounded simultaneously because if this lightning were to explode completely, not only would Jiang Cheng and the others be affected, but so would they.
A comical scene unfolded.
The mecha pilots on the Gu family's side, who had been watching the spectacle and enjoying the show, suddenly found themselves becoming the show as they watched in despair and terror. Those who were quick-witted and responsive hurriedly operated the controls to make their mechas fly upwards.
In their hearts, they cursed the Gu family for being so ruthless!
"Slash!"
Just then, a reprimanding shout rang out.
A dazzling blade of light instantly extinguished all the lightning.
"No!"
The Gu family patriarch let out a hysterical roar, and the lightning spear in his hand was also cut in half.
But it didn't end there.
The few dozen mechas in front of them were also slashed open in an instant.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A massive explosion sounded, like a magnificent fireworks display.
Not only was Jiang Cheng stunned, but Chu Feng was also left dumbfounded by what had just happened.
