Chapter 187 All over the Mountains and Plains

—

Firmament’s face still looked calm. There was bitterness, even the determination to die in his eyes.

No one knew how powerful that sword strike close to the Invincible Realm was better than him. In a normal situation, that sword strike that caused him serious injury couldn’t kill Captain, but it could make him consume up all his energy and even make the degree of damage on him reach above fifty percent. Once he made this move, Captain would not be able to hunt them anymore, and he would even drop out of the battle of Changdao once and for all.

But at the most critical moment, someone altered the command for Captain and forcefully turned him into the strongest state of dormancy. In this state, the degree of damage on Captain could be ignored. Most importantly, the person who altered the command for him was rushing to the battlefield.

After days of hunting, Captain finally had a company. He got help now.

The person who was in charge of the command for Captain, even just temporarily, would surely have high status and power. Captain could no longer fight, but another strong enemy was coming, they had no choice but to keep running away.

“Oh, Firmament.”

A mocking laugh with surprise suddenly rang out in the air. Two figures appeared in front of Wang Shengxiao and the other two out of nowhere. “It has been a while. What a surprise to see you here. Oh and Ms. Black Pupil. Well, Mr. Wang Shengxiao’s strength really stunned me. You’re indeed the young Heavenly Son of Zhongzhou State. Haha, you guys looked tired and embarrassed. If you don’t mind, I want to invite all of you to Dongdu. Is that okay?”

The lightning faded away.

Two middle-aged men with the exact same face appeared in front of the three of them.

These were two extremely handsome men. The most strange part was, the two of them both had long hair that reached their waists, both wore kimono and both looked old and gloomy. At this moment, the two of them stood in front of Wang Shengxiao; one of them was smiling and the other one put on a cold face.

“Tide, Glacier.”

Firmament sighed and said calmly, “It doesn’t seem to be your job to deal with the conflict in the Dark World?”

Tide, Glacier.

The two superiors that used to be very famous in the Dark World now lost all their fame. The two of them were twins. But the most famous twins in the Dark World right now were Ice Crystal and Ice Frost. As for Tide and Glacier who had quit the Dark World, nobody remembered them anymore.

But Firmament knew where they came from.

They were the former top figures of the Divine Wind Force. Ten years ago, they were the Left and Right Commanders of the Divine Wind Force, and they were the second and third in command of the Special Warfare System in East Island.

But about eight years ago, they failed to try to get into the Invincible Realm before they were forty. Then they gave up for good, left the Dark World and went to the Imperial Palace of East Island.

Right now they were the left and right close guards of the Mikado. The reason why Firmament knew them was because he had met them when the Mikado of East Island visited Beihai Province a few years ago, and Wang Tianzong told him about the history of the twins.

Two superiors of the Half-step Invincible Realm!

And they were twins who understood each other by heart.

Firmament’s face got bitter. Even at his peak, he might have been able to beat one of them, but he could never beat them together. Right now, he was seriously injured and couldn’t even stop one of them.

“You’re in East Island.”

Tide said softly with a smile on his face, “If we think it’s necessary, anything can be our job.”

“Does your job include bullying a junior and catching him? Captain of the Kusanagi Force failed after hunting for half of a month. Then you two came along. You guys really made East Island proud.”

Firmament mocked.

“Captain still kept his human mind. But when reforming, the acuity of his mind would surely drop. Right now he’s… stiff.”

Tide sighed and said with a smile, “Right now the technology of East Island can’t compare to the technology of Zhongzhou State. If we can make something like Four Spirits Armor, we would have let a real human lead the Kusanagi Force. Too bad we couldn’t do that.”

Firmament narrowed his eyes and forcefully repressed his injury, then started to turn up his power despite all the consequences.

Tide didn’t seem to care about his struggle. He continued, “In fact, if time allows, we would let Captain keep playing with Mr. Wang Shengxiao, for he’ll be captured anyway. But now we don’t have enough time, and we’re in a desperate situation. You are too close to Changdao, so here we are. His Majesty the Mikado thinks that the three of you can’t go to East Island right now. On the contrary, the Imperial Palace is the best place for you right now. Mr. Wang Shengxiao is a very important person, so we think…”

“He’s not the only important one. Gu Hanshan is also missing. In recent years, you have been making lots of secret deals with Kunlun City, haven’t you? Capturing him can also bring you a lot of interests. Moreover, Ice Crystal and Ice Frost have reached East Island right now. Don’t you want to meet them?”

Firmament calmly interrupted Tide.

“Firmament, are you insulting us? Ice Crystal and Ice Frost? Who the hell are they?”

Before Tide could answer, Glacier already stepped forward with a cold face and said in a creepy tone. He wasn’t tall, and he was wearing a kimono. His hair that reached his waist made him look even shorter. But when he stepped forward, the extremely creepy killing intent blew them in the face, making them forget about his height.

Firmament laughed but didn’t say anything. He held the sword hilt more tightly. The Sword Energy was floating around his body, getting more and more obvious.

He knew why Glacier was so angry. Ice Crystal Frost Sword was famous in the Dark World right now, but a few years ago, no one knew this name in the Dark World.

Back then they were called Ice Crystal Sword Master and Ice Frost Sword Master.

The word Sword Master meant something special to the Dark World of Zhongzhou State, because this term had belonged to Mount Shu for the past hundreds of years.

Ice Crystal Frost Sword that came from Kunlun City calling themselves Sword Masters was obviously a provocation to Mount Shu. But no one knew did Gu Xingyun the Governor of Kunlun City plan this, because Wei Kunlun, the Nirvana Sword Master from Mount Shu, went straight to Kunlun City and challenged the twin brothers who had reached the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm before any of the schemes could be unfolded.

After that fight, the two Sword Masters became the current Ice Crystal Frost Sword.

Glacier and Tide were both figures of the Half-step Invincible Realm, and they thought really highly of themselves. They thought they were not weaker than Wei Kunlun. Firmament compared them to the people who lost to Wei Kunlun, and his contempt was very obvious.

“Ice Crystal Frost Sword doesn’t deserve to fight us. Only figures like you, Firmament, and Mr. Wang Shengxiao are worth our effort. Oh and Ms. Black Pupil, you have beautiful eyes. They will look even more beautiful when we scoop them out, don’t you think so?”

Tide let out a soft laugh and half-closed his eyes.

He stopped looking at Firmament or Black Pupil, and just laid his eyes on Wang Shengxiao who had a calm face.

“Alright, I think we shouldn’t waste time anymore. Young Master Wang, are you gonna follow us obediently, or are you gonna fight a little? Whatever choice you’ll make, we’ll be pleased with it.”

“I’ll go wherever I wanna go. Right now I want to go to Changdao.”

Wang Shengxiao said calmly, “Get out of my way.”

“Great courage.”

Tide gave him a thumbs up and praised him from the bottom of his heart. “Too bad your strength is not enough, and Firmament is seriously injured now. What do you think you have against us? Ms. Black Pupil? She’s far from enough.”

“You can try.”

Wang Shengxiao suddenly reached out his hand and took the giant sword from Firmament’s hand. Then he put on a soft smile.

“This isn’t a good idea.”

Tide shook his head and said seriously, “I advise you to stop fighting. Today we are here to take you with us no matter what, and no one can stop us.”

He didn’t want to fight with Wang Shengxiao. If anything happened in the fight, it wasn’t just the death of the successor of the Wang family of Beihai, for East Island, it would be the loss of tens of thousands of square meters of land that the royalty rented, which supposed to belong to East Island.

“They can’t stop you, what about me?”

A soft, cold voice rang out from afar suddenly.

A white dot appeared afar suddenly. When the voice rang out, this person was still far away. But as the voice faded, he already stood next to Wang Shengxiao.

He was wearing white clothes with a weird face and gloomy aura.

A sense of faintly discernible yet deadly danger suddenly spread around the forest, small like a needle, but extremely sharp.

Tide’s pupils contracted rapidly. He stared at the man in white and said coldly, “Who are you?”

“My name is Daybreak.”

The man in white narrowed his eyes and looked at Tide and the scared Glacier, then said softly, “You two are no match for me. So he should go back to Changdao with me. Any problems, gentlemen?”

Tide sneered and was about to say something. Daybreak said in a complicated way, “My advice for you two is that some problems might get you killed.”

The wild wind blew at night. There was a kind of inexpressible creepiness and gloominess in Daybreak’s soft tone, making people’s blood freeze.

“Are you friends?”

Tide asked while staring straight at Daybreak. He had never heard of the name Daybreak. But he suddenly appeared in front of him, and the faintly discernible sense of danger stimulated his whole body. Tide could be sure that this strange man in white was at least a superior of the Half-step Invincible Realm, and a top-notch one.

For examples, Azure Dragon Gongsun Qi of Zhongzhou State, Tribulation of Sigh City, Saint of Samsara Palace, Firmament of the Wang family of Beihai…

They indeed weren’t a match for people like them separately.

But when they worked together, no one could tell who would win and who would lose.

Tide clenched his fists slightly, and the killing intent flashed through his eyes.

“No.”

Daybreak shook his head while smiling, but his gaze drifted away suddenly. Then he said in a plain tone, “Somebody asked me to keep them safe and bring them back to East Island.”

“Who is it?!”

Before Tide could say anything, Wang Shengxiao and Black Pupil had asked at the same time.

“Samsara.”

In front of the twin brothers of the Half-step Invincible Realm, Daybreak didn’t put up any guard. He turned around and looked at Wang Shengxiao with a smile, then said softly, “Li Tianlan, to be exact.”

Li Tianlan!

Wang Shengxiao’s face looked wired.

But Black Pupil and Firmament changed their expressions rapidly.

Somehow the two of them knew that there was one more connection between Li Tianlan and the Wang family of Beihai.

Any elite of Zhongzhou State that was in East Island right now had reason to save them, but not Li Tianlan.

“Oh… Li Tianlan…”

Tide nodded. “A very important person. In fact, if he wasn’t in Changdao, we might have attacked him already.”

Daybreak was speechless. In Tide’s and Glacier’s angry stares, his facial expression was full of compassion. “You two have great strength, but you can’t touch any of us.”

“Oh yeah? And you’re gonna stop us?”

Glacier said coldly, and lightning had appeared on his palms. The lightning floated around him, and the dim blue light lit him up.

“Of course, I’m not the only one.”

Daybreak looked at Tide and Glacier deeply and said softly, “You two have terrible alertness. Has anybody ever told you that you need to watch your back all the time?”

Their backs?!

Tide was shocked inside, but he didn’t move.

Glacier had taken a quick glance at his back.

After the quick glance, he turned back around, and his whole body shook. He just froze there.

After about two or three seconds, he turned around suddenly and watched in awe and shock.

Tide had noticed that something went wrong, and his heart sank. He pulled Glacier rapidly and moved away for dozens of meters, then turned around.

At that moment, Tide opened his eyes wide and stared at the direction behind him. He was so shocked that he looked like he had met a ghost.

The heavy rain surged, and the wild wind whistled in the dark forest.

Everything was a blur in the forest.

Behind the two of them, about a hundred meters away, shadows walked out of the dark one after another.

There was a whole troop of them!

The fire lit up bit by bit, and the rain was evaporated by the heat. The fire was roasting the whole forest.

Tide’s face looked pale, and his whole body was cold.

The shadows in sight were actually all superiors of the Fire-flaming Realm!

In the dark, the fire was burning, and the shadows were gathering together.

They were all over the mountains and plains!
