Chapter 1409: Chapter 1408: Surrounded
Camille has left, and taken most of the combat strength from the base. The base at Flying Cloud City is one of Camilleās few important bases. If that base is destroyed, it would be a significant blow to Camilleās forces. This is what other Angels told Ling Feng.
In the Heavenly Battlefield, the entire battlefield was permeated with the smell of gunpowder, filled with ruins and chaotic energy currents.
On the ground, corpses were scattered everywhere, including the bodies of warriors from the Angel World, the Divine Realm, and a large number of Void Devouring Insects!
At this moment, the sky twisted, and a disheveled figure appeared in mid-air.
"Hahaha, hahahaha!" Despite his disheveled state, the figure laughed maniacally: "I, Insect Taoist, have finally succeeded. I have cultivated the most perfect Void Devouring Insect. Now, thereās nowhere in this world I cannot go. Heaven truly aids me, hahaha!"
As he laughed, he reached out his hand. In his palm was a crimson-gold Void Devouring Insect, different from ordinary Void Devouring Insects. This oneās aura seemed nonexistent; without seeing it up close, one couldnāt feel its presence at all.
After this fierce battle, Insect Taoist sacrificed almost all Void Devouring Insects, finally successfully cultivating this complete Void Devouring Insect. This crimson-gold Void Devouring Insect is the king among the Void Devouring Insects, not just an ordinary one.
"Divine Realm, Angel World, I really ought to thank you!" Insect Taoistās face was radiant: "But now, I need to find the Insect Nest. Once I find it, Iāll repay you well!"
With that, Insect Taoist waved his hand, tore open the space before him, and disappeared from the spot.
"Damn it, even though we saved everyone, we still let Insect Taoist escape!" In the divine army, General Ling Weiās face was grim: "If not for those meddlesome rebels, we certainly could have slain Insect Taoist!"
They also did not expect those hidden expert rebels in the Heavenly Battlefield to revolt. Although suppressed by the Angel and Divine armies, they still diverted most of their forces, allowing Insect Taoist to escape.
General Divine Might said calmly: "Our goal has already been achieved, and we have almost completely slain Insect Taoistās Void Devouring Insects. Insect Taoist now is like a toothless tiger, sooner or later heās ours to capture, whatās the rush!"
General Ling Wei glared at General Divine Might, snorted coldly: "I donāt need you to console me. I will naturally ask forgiveness from the Divine Emperor, I donāt need your pretentious act of kindness!"
Saying this, General Ling Wei flicked his sleeves and left.
General Divine Might shook his head, accustomed to Ling Weiās bad temper for a long time.
"But according to those youngsters, thereās also a guy named Ling Feng whoās missing! Could it be that Insect Taoist killed him?" General Divine Might frowned slightly: "What a pity, according to them, this Ling Feng seemed to be someone with great potential!"
General Divine Might could hardly believe it, the one he thought had great potential is now in the Angel World, acting as the guardian of the Holy Angel Egg!
On the second day after Camille left, Ling Feng found Bright Saintess: "Saintess, I think now is the opportunity!"
"Opportunity, what opportunity?" Bright Saintess was somewhat confused.
Ling Feng said solemnly: "Itās our chance to leave here!"
"Leave here? Didnāt Camille say we should stay here? Itās safe here!" Bright Saintess said surprisedly.
Ling Feng shook his head and said: "Saintess, we are not Camilleās subordinates, we have no need to truly follow her orders! Besides, itās Camille and his subordinates who are wanted by the Holy Spirit King, they donāt know of our existence!"
"So, leaving Camille is actually safer. If we continue mingling with them, once discovered by the Holy Spirit Kingās men, we wonāt be able to explain ourselves!" Ling Feng said helplessly: "Our strength is really too weak, we canāt withstand any shock from either side!"
Bright Saintess hesitated: "If thatās the case, then what about the Holy Angel Egg?"
Ling Feng said flatly: "Iāll try my best today to get the little one to come out, but if it really doesnāt come out, thereās nothing I can do. Iāve done all I can, Iāve fulfilled my duty!"
"But without you, this Holy Angel Egg..."
"Saintess, do you really think only I can hatch the Holy Angel Egg?" Ling Feng said flatly: "I absolutely do not believe Camilleās words. Without me, they must have other methods, though the cost might be larger!"
"All these days, Camille hasnāt shown great anxiety!" Ling Feng said seriously: "Logically, this Holy Angel Egg is related to the Angel Worldās fate, how could Camille possibly appear so unconcerned?"
"So I conclude, Camille must have other ways to birth the Holy Angel. Letting me hatch it is just the method with the smallest cost!" Ling Feng said.
Bright Saintess thought about Camilleās recent behavior and indeed felt that it aligned with what Ling Feng said. She acknowledged Ling Fengās statement in her heart.
"Then we shouldnāt delay, letās set off tonight!" Bright Saintess said: "There will be fewer guards tonight, easier for us to leave!"
"Alright, letās leave tonight then!" Ling Feng said.
However, by afternoon, Ling Fengās plan was disrupted.
"Whatās going on, itās surrounded outside?" Ling Feng was stunned when he heard this news: "Wasnāt Camille claiming this place is very safe? How could it be discovered?"
The Angel showed a puzzled and tense expression: "We are also unclear, this place has never been discovered before."
Ling Feng irritably waved his hand: "Alright, nowās not the time to talk about this. I want to know, can we defend this place? How much chance do we have?"
The Angel shook his head and said: "The main forces were taken by Lord Camille, we only have twenty percent combat strength here. And outside, their numbers and strength far exceed ours, Iām afraid..."
Ling Feng realized, it seems this time is highly unfavorable! If not for the Holy Angel Egg still being here, Ling Feng might suspect Camille intends to use them to kill!
"Given this, there seems only one possibility, thereās a traitor or spy among Camilleās people!" Ling Feng thought to himself.
