Chapter 1496: Chapter 1494: Targeted
"Not good!" A shocking light flashed in the commanderâs eyes: "The energy wave of this attack has already exceeded the range that the airship can withstand!"
"What should we do then?" A trace of panic flashed across Gong Yuâs face because, due to the reputation of the Gong family, few would normally choose to attack the Gong familyâs airship. Hence, there werenât many defensive forces on the airship!
"Three million Abyssal Stones? It seems the opponentâs motive isnât robbery," Ling Feng calmly said. "Since itâs not robbery, then itâs definitely kidnapping. It seems someone on our airship is their target!"
The commander was at his witsâ end and could only shout, "Quickly, raise the airshipâs strongest defense, we have to withstand this strike!"
Ling Feng shook his head; the power of this strike was already infinitely close to the strength of the Azure Sky Realm. Unless a master from the Azure Sky Realm stepped in, this airship stood no chance of escaping disaster.
Thunder roared, the enormous Eye of the Thunder God in the sky appeared to carry unparalleled power, its lightning-filled eyes glaring fixedly at the airship. Due to the array plate not being repaired, the airship was nothing more than a huge sitting duck.
"Eye of the Thunder God, Thunder Strike!" the man on the Firebird said calmly.
The lightning from the Eye of the Thunder God suddenly surged like thousands of Thunder Snakes, blasting toward the airship.
"Quick, raise the Defensive Barrier!" the commander within the airship shouted loudly.
The formations on the airship flickered, and a yellow Defensive Barrier appeared on the surface of the airship, but the masked man coldly smiled, "A mere Level 4 Defensive Barrier is nothing under my Eye of the Thunder God!"
Indeed, the thousands of lightning bolts struck down, instantly breaking the Defensive Barrier on the airship. Those lightning bolts also destroyed other formations on the airship. However, fortunately, the Thunder God Alliance did not have the intention to kill; aside from destroying the airshipâs devices, they did not harm the people inside!
Of course, there were over a thousand passengers in the airship, including Sea of Gods Realm experts. If they were provoked, the ten or so members of the Thunder God Alliance wouldnât stand a chance!
Bang bang bang! The out-of-control airship plummeted from the sky, and the control room was already in chaos, with all the array plates destroyed, causing the airship to fall faster and faster.
With a bang, the airship crashed heavily to the ground. Luckily, there was a shock absorption system inside the airship, so most people were not seriously injured.
"Everyone inside the airship, listen up! We, the Thunder God Alliance, only seek wealth, not lives, provided you cooperate well. Otherwise, we can only apologize!" The masked man appeared at the front of the airship, riding on the Firebird, and spoke calmly.
A dozen or so high-level Sea of Gods Realm experts surrounded the airship.
"Ten thousand Abyssal Stones per person, and you can leave!" the masked man said lightly. "For the Gong family members, itâs fifty thousand each!"
The airshipâs door opened, and the commander of the control room rushed out, "You actually dare to rob the Gong familyâs airship, do you not want to live? Do you know what youâre doing?"
"Noisy!" The masked man flicked his fingers, and a thunderbolt exploded on the commanderâs body.
A scream echoed, and the commanderâs chest exploded into a bloody mess!
The power of that single strike was so overwhelming that it made everyone shiver involuntarily.
Faced with more than ten incredibly powerful experts, everyone, after weighing their options, chose to hand over ten thousand Abyssal Stones!
Although ten thousand Abyssal Stones was a significant amount, their lives were ultimately more important.
Under the supervision of the Thunder God Alliance, the people on the airship handed over ten thousand Abyssal Stones one by one, then moved to the other side.
"Master, shouldnât we also just hand it over?" Xiong Yan whispered in Ling Fengâs ear. "These people are ruthless; we shouldnât get into any conflict with them!"
Ling Feng smiled, "Do you have enough Abyssal Stones?"
Xiong Yan nodded, "Before I left, my father gave me a generous travel allowance, enough to pay up!"
Ling Feng nodded, "Okay then, better to avoid more trouble."
Currently, Ling Fengâs forces were weak, and he had no interest in confronting the so-called Thunder God Alliance.
For most people, ten thousand Abyssal Stones was bearable.
"I only have three thousand Abyssal Stones on me," pleaded a man with God Realm cultivation in front of him. "Even if you kill me, I canât make up ten thousand Abyssal Stones. Canât you make an exception?"
"Exception?" The expert from the Thunder God Alliance sneered, "Of course an exception can be made. If you donât have Abyssal Stones, you can mortgage other items like weapons, Treasure Artifacts, or other rare items!"
"But I donât have any..."
A flash of white light streaked by before he could finish his words, and someone from the Thunder God Alliance had already beheaded him. "If you have nothing, then sorry, your life isnât worth ten thousand Abyssal Stones, and thereâs no point in you staying in this world!"
Saying that, he tossed three thousand Abyssal Stones onto the dead manâs body. "Rest assured, we donât take money from the dead!"
A cold wind swept through everyoneâs hearts, showing clearly that these people had no qualms about killing!
"Youâre with the Gong family, right?" The killer turned to one of the airship control room members. "Fifty thousand Abyssal Stones, or else..."
"Iâll pay, Iâll pay! Iâll pay fifty thousand Abyssal Stones!" The person hurriedly took out Abyssal Stones from his Space Ring, terrified.
"Very sensible!" The murderous man smiled and patted the face of the Gong family member. "Isnât this much more pleasant for everyone?"
"No matter in which world, thereâs always a herd mentality!" Ling Feng thought inwardly.
At this time, the Thunder God Alliance people came to Ling Feng, "Your turn!"

Xiong Yan took out thirty thousand Abyssal Stones and said, "This is for the three of us."
The Thunder God Alliance people were briefly stunned, then smirked, "So generous? Looks like youâre quite wealthy. Since you have so much money, how about each ten thousand Abyssal Stones? Hand over thirty thousand Abyssal Stones, and weâll let you go!"
"Wasnât it ten thousand Abyssal Stones per person? How come itâs changed for us?" Xiong Yan said, a bit upset.
"Young lady, weâre bandits, you must have mistaken something. How much to pay is up to us!" the Thunder God Alliance member sneered, "Of course, if you donât have enough Abyssal Stones, you can substitute them with other items, like rare treasures or medicinal materials..."
With that, the man glanced lightly at Ling Feng, a flash of greed in his eyes that Ling Feng caught clearly.
