“Kill!” Hearing the mysterious powerhouse’s furious roar, Feng Yuntian, who had long been itching to attack Lin Xiao, sprang into action. With a loud shout, he charged towards Lin Xiao, and the Feng family’s forces followed suit.
“Kill!” Mo Long, from the Mo Yu Empire, also issued the command.
As the powerful crown prince of the Mo Yu Empire, he thought more strategically than Feng Yuntian.
Firstly, his great-uncle Mo Xiang was the empire’s true authority, and his orders were most likely to be followed by the empire’s powerhouses. By issuing the command, he aligned with Mo Xiang’s intent while boosting his own influence.
Secondly, he harboured a deep grudge against Lin Xiao for killing his brother, burning with intent to kill. Since the Feng family also targeted Lin Xiao, their primary goal aligned, and they’d focus on him first.
With both sides combining forces against Lin Xiao, eliminating him would be far easier.
Moreover, Lin Xiao’s actions had severely injured their Martial Monarch, igniting anger not just in Mo Jiutian but throughout the Mo Yu Empire’s ranks.
In that instant, aside from Yun Feng and Zhui Feng, who had ties to Lin Xiao, the Mo Yu Empire’s other powerhouses mobilised, attacking Lin Xiao’s group.
“Attack!” Seeing this, Dong Yangtian led the Dong Yang Empire’s forces into action.
Though the Dong Yang Empire didn’t share the same deep, life-or-death enmity with Lin Xiao as the Feng family or Mo Yu Empire, they had witnessed his formidable methods and felt his threat.
Moreover, their Martial Monarch had been gravely wounded in the blast, filling them with anger.
Their primary target for elimination was also Lin Xiao.
“Swish!” At that moment, seeing the blue-gold robed old man heavily injured, Mei Tianmo seized the opportunity, gathering her strength and soaring into the sky, chasing after him.
The blue-gold robed old man’s brows furrowed as he forcibly mustered his power, fleeing towards the horizon.
Mei Tianmo pursued relentlessly, chasing him at incredible speed.
This was the perfect moment to hunt down the blue-gold robed old man.
Meanwhile, the bloodied Mo Xiang and Li Yangming descended to one side of the ground, preparing to heal.
Everything happened in an instant, with a swarm of fighters flooding towards Lin Xiao and his group.
“Attack!” Empress Meng Xi’s brows furrowed, shouting as she prepared to act.
At her command, the royal experts, Zhou Xiong, the Zhou family, and the Spirit Control Masters’ Alliance powerhouses readied to move.
They couldn’t stand by and watch Lin Xiao’s group be overwhelmed, and this was their chance to join him against the two empires and the Feng family.
Lin Qinglun and Ge Mu also prepared to assist.
“Maoqiu, attack!” But at that moment, Lin Xiao’s booming shout rang out. As his voice echoed, the ground erupted with “chh! chh!” sounds of earth breaking. Clumps of white whiskers shot out from the ground, faster than an entry-level Martial Monarch, surging towards the crowd on the plaza.
“Danger!” In that instant, those charging across the plaza felt an intense sense of crisis. But the dense white whiskers sprouting from the ground were too fast. Before they could react, their bodies were ensnared by clumps of whiskers, leaving only their heads exposed.
Even Feng Yuntian was wrapped in a mass of hair-thin white whiskers.
Aside from Lin Xiao’s trio and beast, the royal family, Zhou family, Spirit Control Masters’ Alliance, Lin Qinglun, Ge Mu, and Yun Feng and Zhui Feng, who remained on the ground, over a hundred powerhouses on the plaza were entangled by the overwhelming white whiskers.
At that moment, the crowd was gripped by horror, struggling desperately.
“What, what is this?!”
“It’s Lin Xiao’s doing!”
“How are these white whiskers so tough? My strength can’t break free.”
Panicked cries rang out, each person wearing a look of deep shock. The sudden eruption of white whiskers from the ground was too bizarre, too terrifying, trapping them all in the blink of an eye.
Even those at the Martial Venerable realm couldn’t break free from the whiskers binding them.
Empress Meng Xi, Meng Ying, and others were stunned, realising this was Lin Xiao’s true trump card!
The unbound Zhou family and Spirit Control Masters’ Alliance members were reeling, their hearts surging with awe.
Lin Xiao’s trump card was too extraordinary, instantly trapping the forces of both empires and the Feng family.
Even more shocking were the two gravely injured Martial Monarchs, Mo Xiang and Li Yangming, who had descended to the plaza’s edge to heal. They, too, were ensnared by clumps of white whiskers, tightly binding their mangled bodies.
Already heavily injured, they couldn’t break free from the incredibly tough whiskers.
They could scarcely believe a mere junior wielded such a terrifying method.
The onlookers outside the Feng family were dumbfounded. From a distance, the plaza was a sea of white, as if covered in fine white fur. In an instant, the forces of both empires and the Feng family were trapped by this white mass.
It was unimaginable what kind of method this was.
“Boom!”
But soon, a searing sound rang out. Feng Yuntian broke free from the whiskers, soaring into the sky, his body marked with several bloodstains.
The crowd gasped, and those trapped felt a surge of hope, exerting their strength. But their hopes were quickly dashed. No matter how they struggled, they couldn’t break the whiskers.
The whiskers could be broken by a third-level Martial Monarch, but not by Martial Venerables.
Even the two ninth-level Martial Venerables couldn’t break free, let alone the others, who remained trapped despite their struggles.
“Chh!”
As Feng Yuntian broke free, the Blue Corpse Puppet charged to his former position, swinging a fist that hit empty air. It spun and soared, chasing after Feng Yuntian.
Though Xu Tianwangyue was a sixth-tier entry-level spirit beast, equivalent to Feng Yuntian’s realm, the whiskers it produced to trap so many couldn’t fully restrain a third-level Martial Monarch.
A similar situation had occurred during the battle between Shengyuan Academy and the Nether Demon Palace.
Thus, when Xu Tianwangyue trapped Feng Yuntian, Lin Xiao had ordered the Blue Corpse Puppet to attack, but it was slightly too late.
However, Feng Yuntian hadn’t escaped far before the Blue Corpse Puppet caught up, and the two began clashing, the sounds of their collisions echoing.
Under Feng Yuntian’s full force, he unleashed his strongest martial techniques, pushing the Blue Corpse Puppet back repeatedly. If not for its impervious defence, it would likely have been injured.
“Lin Xiao, release my Feng family, or I’ll make you wish you were dead!” Feng Yuntian roared furiously from a distance above the plaza, itching to crush the Blue Corpse Puppet and kill Lin Xiao. But wary of the white whiskers, he didn’t dare charge in.
