"How is it possible that the call won’t go through!"

Qiao Beiming took out his phone and directly called the King of the Eternal Kingdom, but the call wouldn’t connect. "What’s going on?" he asked, frowning.

Lin Feng didn’t know what was happening either and said, "Let’s wipe out the Wu Family Manor and Wu Family Fortress first. We can contact the Kingdom after that."

Qiao Beiming nodded. "Alright. We’ll kill Tang Bo and An Dongye first, then wipe out the Wu Family Fortress!"

With a murderous aura, he rushed toward the mansion. He and Lin Feng had seen Tang Bo and An Dongye when they first arrived. But when the two stormed into the mansion, there was no trace of either of them.

"Damn it! Ye Xiu must have found out the princess saw Meng Yinwan. He probably notified the people at the Wu Family Manor and Fortress, which is why Tang Bo and An Dongye fled," Qiao Beiming instantly concluded.

Hearing this, Lin Feng grew anxious. "Then let’s hurry to the Wu Family Fortress! We can’t let them all escape!"

"Let’s go!"

Instantly, the two of them headed straight for the Wu Family Fortress. At the same time, Qiao Beiming took out his phone and sent a mass text to his over 2,000 subordinates, ordering them to rush to the Wu Family Fortress immediately to prevent anyone from escaping.

The Wu Family Manor was originally part of the Wu Family Fortress, situated on its outskirts. From just outside the manor, one could see the entire fortress at a glance.

Qiao Beiming and Lin Feng ran out of the Wu Family Manor at top speed. They immediately spotted Tang Bo in the streets, shouting and urging people on as members of the Medicine King Valley and the Dongfang Family poured out of the various houses.

Just as I suspected. They really are trying to escape.

Qiao Beiming drew a Fine Steel Soft Sword from his waist and said coldly, "Wipe them out. Spare no one!"

Lin Feng needed no reminder. He had already drawn his sword and charged.

"Damn it!" Tang Bo’s expression changed drastically when he saw Qiao Beiming and Lin Feng charging toward them. He roared, "Dongfang Family, flee first! Medicine King Valley, stay with me to cover the rear! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

At that moment, Tang Bo was exceptionally calm, and his orders were the most rational course of action. He knew that even if he, the Medicine King Valley, and the Dongfang Family all joined forces, they would be no match for Qiao Beiming and Lin Feng. If they scattered and fled, some might escape, but many would still be killed. But he and the members of Medicine King Valley had Life Totems. They could stay behind to hold off Qiao Beiming and Lin Feng, covering the Dongfang Family’s escape. Even if they all died in battle, they could be revived.

However, if the members of the Dongfang Family didn’t flee, their deaths were certain.

"Everyone, scatter and run! Don’t bunch up! Move!" An Dongye instantly understood Tang Bo’s intentions. With a thunderous shout, he was the first to sprint away.

The people of the Dongfang Family knew that staying would only lead to more casualties, so they fled for their lives without a moment’s hesitation. Their family’s Totem granted them Power and Speed, making them exceptional escape artists. Each one ran faster than the last.

"Trying to run? Do you think you can get away?" Qiao Beiming snorted with disdain. Countless clods of earth suddenly rose from the ground as he prepared to shoot and kill every member of the Dongfang Family from a distance.

With Qiao Beiming’s strength as a Fifth Realm War God, the clods condensed by his Earth System Totem were more powerful than bullets from a Barrett sniper rifle. A direct hit meant certain death for anyone from the Dongfang Family.

However, just as Qiao Beiming locked onto all the fleeing Dongfang Family members and prepared for a long-range attack, the ground beneath him suddenly collapsed into a large pit. Caught off guard, he slid in, and the countless earthen clods he had condensed all fell uselessly to the ground.

Seeing his Earth System Totem attack had successfully hindered Qiao Beiming, Tang Bo immediately shouted, "Everyone from Medicine King Valley, join forces against Lin Feng! Leave Qiao Beiming to me! And remember, don’t look into Lin Feng’s eyes!"

"Alright!" Bai Shan Jun nodded. He drew his sword to meet Lin Feng’s charge. "Everyone from Medicine King Valley, with me! Kill!"

"Kill!" At this moment, everyone from Medicine King Valley cast aside all pretense and fear, displaying a spirit that defied death. One after another, they drew their weapons and followed Bai Shan Jun, roaring madly as they charged Lin Feng. In reality, they were terrified, and roaring was the only way they could suppress their fear.

"Second Prince, you go after the ones who are escaping! Leave these people to me!" Qiao Beiming yelled as he leaped out of the pit like a cannon shell.

"Alright!" Lin Feng was about to slaughter the approaching members of Medicine King Valley. At Qiao Beiming’s command, however, he prepared to abandon them and pursue the Dongfang Family instead.

At that moment, the ground beneath Lin Feng collapsed into a large pit, and he followed in Qiao Beiming’s footsteps, tumbling inside.

Meanwhile, the members of Medicine King Valley had already rushed to the edge of the pit. Led by Valley Master Bai Shan Jun, they unleashed a barrage of Blade Qi and Sword Qi down into it.

"AAARGH! Die, you ants!" Lin Feng roared furiously as he leaped from the pit. Countless blasts of Sword Qi and Blade Qi struck his body, yet they only managed to destroy his clothes, leaving not a single mark on his skin.

A First Realm War God refines intent.

A Second Realm War God refines Qi.

A Third Realm War God refines spirit.

A Fourth Realm War God forges copper skin and iron bones.

Lin Feng was a Fifth Realm War God, and his body’s defensive power was extremely high.

After Ye Xiu had bestowed them with Spiritual Energy and Golden Blood, the members of Medicine King Valley had awakened their Life Totems to the Third Stage, giving them the strength of Pseudo Fourth Realm War Gods. However, their power wasn’t even a match for a Third Realm War God from the Eternal Kingdom, and they lacked long-range attack skills. As a result, the Sword Qi and Blade Qi they unleashed barely reached the Attack Power of a Second Realm War God.

"Don’t face him head-on! Our mission is to buy time!" Bai Shan Jun shouted. He moved to engage the furious Lin Feng but didn’t clash directly, instead just dodging and weaving to avoid him.

"Understood!" The hundred or so members of Medicine King Valley weren’t fools and were keenly aware of their own limitations. Although Lin Feng was a Fifth Realm War God, his strength surpassed even Meng Yinwan, a Pseudo Sixth Realm. If their group of Pseudo Fourth Realms clashed head-on with him, they would be swiftly annihilated.

It seems Ye Xiu has meticulously trained these people. They all possess Pseudo Fourth Realm strength.

Qiao Beiming furrowed his brow. He knew it was now impossible to expect Lin Feng to pursue the Dongfang Family. Even if Lin Feng could kill everyone from Medicine King Valley in just five minutes, that was more than enough time for the Dongfang Family to get far away and hide.

Looks like I’ll have to go after them myself.

Qiao Beiming looked at Tang Bo, who was dozens of meters away. "It seems Ye Xiu gave you the Earth System Totem that I gave him. But do you really think you can match me with just the power of a First Stage Earth System Totem? Naive!"

With that, he charged toward Tang Bo at full speed.

"Hehe..." Tang Bo gave a sly smirk as his body slowly sank into the ground. He sneered, "Indeed, my Earth System Totem is only at the First Stage. But do you have any idea what my level of Martial Prowess is?"

As he spoke the final word, his entire body disappeared into the earth.

Indeed, Tang Bo was bluffing. His strength surpassed anyone else from Medicine King Valley because he had developed his own Spear Technique, comprehended intent, consumed a Marrow Cleansing Pill, converted all his Martial Prowess into Spiritual Energy, and even gained an Earth System Totem. However, he was still a Pseudo Fourth Realm, albeit the strongest of them. He had no chance of winning a direct confrontation with Qiao Beiming. But the problem was, Qiao Beiming had no idea how strong he really was.
