Chapter 356 The Responsibility to Protect the Great Xia
Chapter 356 The Responsibility to Protect the Great Xia
Not only Lin Qiye, but also Wang Mian and Xia Simeng, who were protecting the new recruits as they retreated, felt the violent sword energy fluctuations coming from the west.
"Captain, the space over there seems a bit unbalanced. Did Director Li intervene?"
Tianping gazed intently at the churning clouds above the Pamir Plateau and whispered a question to Wangmian beside him.
After advancing to the level of Klein, Libra's perception of spatial power reached a new level.
Although he was far away, he could still sense that a great battle must be taking place there!
"Captain, go check on them. We've got a few of us here with the new recruits, so you don't need to worry."
"Yes, Captain, Rose is right. We will definitely take the recruits to a safe place."
Whirlpool patted King Face on the shoulder and gave him a reassuring look.
Having said all that, Wang Mian no longer hesitated, nodded, and then quickly left the carriage.
Similarly, Xia Simeng, wearing a golden cloak, and Lin Qiye, wearing a deep red cloak, were also heading back the way they came.
"What a coincidence."
"It really is a coincidence."
"You two felt it too?"
"What did you feel?"
"What else could it be but the murderous aura emanating from Brother Li's sword?"
"No, but I do know that a battle is taking place over there... a very high-level battle!"
Xia Simeng and Wang Mian had little contact with Li Jie and could not understand, like Lin Qiye, that the latter could convey his emotions through sword intent.
But it doesn't hurt.
In terms of realm, they can carry souls. Wang Mian and Xia Simeng are at the human ceiling and half-step human ceiling, respectively. Even if the person who comes is a god, they can still compete with him!
Thinking about this, Lin Qiye suddenly had a crazy idea. He seemed to understand why Brother Li insisted on having three special teams lead the team to this godforsaken place to conduct the graduation assessment.
Maybe he knew in advance that a major battle was going to take place here?
With this thought in mind, Lin Qiye realized that the enemy currently fighting Li Ge was, at most, a god from another realm.
"Be prepared, our opponent might be a god."
"It is indeed a god; I can already sense the unusual fluctuations of divine power."
"I feel it, too."
Lin Qiye frowned involuntarily at their answers.
So only the guy was guessing?
"Hurry up, it seems like the battle is almost over over there!"
Wang Mian looked up at the distant sky and said in a deep voice.
"Then let's ride on my cloud, that will be faster."
At this point, Lin Qiye summoned his Somersault Cloud, carrying the two of them at full speed towards the depths of the Pamir Plateau.
……
On a military bus transporting new recruits back to camp.
Su Zhe nudged Baili Pangpang's broad arm and asked cautiously.
"Instructor Baili, where did Instructor Lin go?"
"I'm going back to help."
"Help? Is there anything we can do for you?"
"It's good that you have this intention, but... you'd better stay here."
Baili Pangpang took a deep look into the distance, then turned his head and said in a low voice.
"With Director Li and a few other instructors there, the battle there is manageable. If you go there, you'll just be throwing your lives away."
"because……"
"Their adversary... is God."
"god??!"
After Baili Pangpang's voice fell, the noisy carriage suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Only then did they understand why the instructors had led them away from the Pamir Plateau so quickly after the assessment.
It turns out that traces of extraterrestrial gods have been discovered in this far western region of the Great Xia Dynasty.
After a moment of silence, the recruits stood up and looked back.
"No need to look, you can't see it."
Cao Yuan crossed his arms and said in a deep voice.
"I'm telling you this to make you feel a bit threatened. That level of combat is still too far removed from your reality. Even if the sky falls, we old folks will hold it up..."
"What you need to do is grow up as quickly as possible... and then take on the responsibility of protecting the Great Xia."
The responsibility to protect the Great Xia Dynasty...
After he finished speaking, the recruits' faces immediately showed complicated expressions.
The instructor was right... Their mission now is not to go and die, but to grow up as quickly as possible and fulfill the responsibilities that a Night's Watchman should bear.
The military bus continued to travel smoothly on the highway, but no other sounds came from inside the vehicle.
Silence, deafening...
……
The Western Frontier, the National Guardian Stele.
Fine cracks have appeared on the bodies of Isis, the goddess of life, and Geb, the god of the earth.
Without the support of the Sun City's divine power source, the remaining divine power within their bodies was insufficient to help them repair their divine bodies.
Compared to the disheveled state of the two gods, Li Jie appeared exceptionally relaxed and at ease.
Although his expression remained calm, both Egyptian gods could tell that this kid wasn't using his full strength at all.
Are you humiliating us?
"These ineffective attacks can't kill us at all!"
If it weren't for the fear of the death laws carried by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, Isis would have really wanted to grab Li Jie's head and beat him up.
From the start of the battle, both gods used ranged attacks in an attempt to wear down Li Jie's strength, but...
Not only did they fail to achieve their goal, but they also exhausted most of their divine power.
"Since you can't go back anyway, it won't hurt to play with you a little longer. The Queen Mother of the West's Kunlun Mirror is recording everything here, so it's a good way to keep a memento."
Li Jie chuckled and pointed to the ancient bronze mirror that blocked out the sky above his head, teasingly remarking.
"Bastard! Even if we two stay here forever, we'll drag you down with us!"
"If you can do it, you are welcome to give it a try."
Li Jie waved the ancient longsword in his hand, which emitted a deep, dark light, and said with an indifferent expression.
In fact, if he wanted to kill these two Nine Pillar Gods who had lost their source power, one move, [Western Chu Sword Song, Asking the Heavens], would have been enough. However, from the start of the battle until now, apart from the [Hundred Steps Flying Sword, One Blade Severing the Throat] he released at the beginning, he has spent most of the time using [Two Sleeves Green Snakes] to entangle with them.
His purpose in doing this was to allow Fang Mo, who was hiding in the void, to observe more how to use a sword to fight.
However, what he didn't know was...
Fang Mo in the void had already given the four-word assessment that his master could only "fight to a draw" with the two gods.
