Chapter 717: The strongest Law Overlord of White Horse Constellation!
*Rumble!*
The Sky Curtain shattered!
All the people living near the Cherry Garden were stunned! They could hardly believe their eyes. The aloof Moonward Clan, which all of them had looked up to, was under a.s.sault by the craziest madmen in the Law Realm!
“This is Skywing business! Unconcerned people should stay away!” Law Emperor Xia Zhiyuan’s brows furrowed as he bellowed! He woke the astonished citizens from their stupor; in response, the crowd turned around and immediately took to their heels.
As these people ran away, they turned to look back. “Did you hear? Those are the Skywings attacking the Moonward Clan!”
“The Skywings? Those madmen who live in West City?”
“Who else could they be? There are no other Skywing Clan in the Law Realm!”
“Run! The Skywings are completely unreasonable! If you’re slow, you might lose your life!”
“Do you think the Law Enforcement Board will show up? Aren’t they responsible for the White Horse Constellation’s public safety?”
“Are you dumb or just naïve? The Skywings even dared to openly attack the Moonward Clan, so how could the Law Enforcement Board control them? If they provoke the Skywings, they’ll also be attacked! Do you believe me?!”
“I believe you! Of course! When G.o.ds fight, the common people suffer. I’m going home to get my kid and then going to hide out in the countryside.”
The common people felt reverence for great clans like the Skywings and the Moonwards. While the Skywings were infamous, they had never slaughtered the common people. Thus, while this conflict had initially inspired terror and fear, it had not drawn public outrage.
…
*Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+*
No stopping! The Skywings’ thirty-nine wicked wolves charged into the Cherry Garden like bolts of lightning.
Their faces were savage and terrifying to behold!
“Protect the clan! Push back these crazy Skywings!”
“Even if I die, the dignity of the Moonward Clan must be protected!”
The waiting Moonward Clan warriors saw the law curtain fall, and fear appeared on their faces. They shouted out war cries in an attempt to raise their morale!
Alas, a few slogans were not enough to gain victory. Otherwise, what would the point of warriors existing? Everyone would just need to gather together and shout slogans! These Moonward Clan warriors were no match for the Law Emperors and Law Overlords of the Skywing Clan, and the battle became a one-sided ma.s.sacre in a flash. The Skywings had killed several hundred of them in the blink of an eye!
“Patriarch, these are all low-rank Moonward Clan warriors. Something’s not right! The enemies have yet to show any of their actual fighting power!” The number-two man in the Skywing Clan, the bespectacled Xia Tian, stopped and spoke to Xia Buyun.
Xia Buyun looked around with his red eyes and coldly said, “Let this cannon fodder go and turn the Moon Reaching House upside down!”
“Understood!” the Skywing Law Emperors shouted in unison!
The Moon Reaching House had been the residence for generations of Moonward Clan’s patriarchs. If flattening the Plum Garden signaled the start of war between the Skywings and the Moonwards, then turning the Moon Reaching House upside down was a challenge to the entire Moonward Clan!
After all, most of the former residents of the Moon Reaching House had already gone to the G.o.d Race, becoming members of the peak race that looked down upon all living beings! It certainly did not feel good to see one’s former residence being flattened by the Skywings, and even for ordinary members of the clan, the Moon Reaching House was only second in stature to the ancestral shrine—a second holy ground!
However, this was no holy ground to the Skywing. Whether it was a holy ground or not, it would all be flattened!
*Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+*
The speed was far too fast! The Cherry Garden, which covered 330 hectares, was like the Skywings’ back garden. They moved freely around it without the slightest opposition!
Their vigorous bodies moved as quickly as ghosts!
Speed! Speed! Speed!
Invincible speed!
Unstoppable speed!
*Whoos.h.!.+*
Skywing Law Emperor Xia Wu accidentally cut his arm on a hidden weapon. His body swayed for a moment and then he disappeared. Three seconds later, Xia Wu was back! Waving around his saber, he had once more plunged into battle!
His arm was already wrapped up in bandages. Not only had medicine been applied, there was even a splint to set his bone in place!
Three seconds! Only three seconds!
How had he done it? Able to get treatment at any time in the middle of a battle, this was far too heaven-defying!
It could not be forgotten that the Skywings were all elites versed in the Law of Speed!
While others might be unable to do it, the Skywings could!
In the first second, Xia Wu used his near-light-speed velocity to return to the Wind Garden. In the next second, Xia Ying’s team of medics used comparable speed to carry out treatment. With the third second, Xia Wu returned into the fray!
This simply was not a fair fight, for the Skywing Clan’s speed was far too heaven-defying! Ordinary people could not even see them!
Helplessness welled up in the minds of the Moonward Clan warriors. They felt like they were not facing humans but thirty-nine devils, instead! Thirty-nine speedy madmen who could neither be seen nor felt!
Attack? Which one of these innumerable afterimages jumping around were they supposed to attack!
Defend? The enemy’s speed was nearing light speed. How could they defend against that!
The unseen and untouchable enemy was truly the most terrifying!
These were the Skywing warriors!
Even though many Moonward Clan warriors had died, there was no telling whose hands they had died to!
The Law of Speed, this was just how absurd of a law force it was!
The most difficult was often the best. There was no denying that the Law of Speed’s difficulty was supremely absurd!
However, once this absurdly difficult law force was mastered, no one would be able to oppose it!
Up into the heavens or down into the earth, there was no stopping them!
The Skywing Clan had unleashed all of its Law Emperors and Law Overlords like thirty-nine wolves lunging into a flock of sheep.
A one-sided ma.s.sacre was not just inevitable, but also necessary!
Within five seconds, the Cherry Garden of the Moonward Clan was running with rivers of blood!
…
*Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+*
Thirty-nine black figures stood on the roof of a very beautiful building within Cherry Garden, on rainbow-gla.s.s tiles.
In front of them was a serene courtyard and a simple and old house, the pavilions and fountains lacking any sort of elegance.
This was the Moon Reaching House, the home of the Moonward Clan’s patriarch!
Xia Buyun pointed at the house and roared, “Flatten the Moon Reaching House!”
Just when they were about to move, a figure descended from the sky. It was none other than the Moonward Clan’s representative on the Law Enforcement Board, Law Emperor Sail Ward!
“This is the Moon Reaching House of the Moonward Clan, the residence of our patriarch! You Skywings dare to attack this place? Don’t you fear the Law Enforcement Board?!” Sail Ward demanded, his face pale as he gathered up his courage to confront these madmen.
Faces reddened from excitement looked at Sail Ward, carrying the characteristically wicked smiles of the Skywing Clan.
Sail Ward broke out in a cold sweat, feeling like he was being stared at by several dozen wolves.
“What are you thinking about? I’m the vice chair of the Law Enforcement Board! I represent the interests of this government body!”
He had barely spoken when five Skywing Great Law Emperors lunged out!
Two of them pulled on Sail Ward’s arms, one person got his head, and the remaining two pulled on his legs!
*Bang!*
Dismembered!
The five Great Law Emperors of the Skywing Clan had torn apart Law Emperor Sail Ward within the s.p.a.ce of a single second!
*Pa!*
Xia Zonghai viciously threw a severed arm to the ground and madly laughed. “Screw your Law Enforcement Board! I’m also part of the Law Enforcement Board!”
The vice chair of the Law Enforcement Board and a Law Emperor of a generation had died just like that! The Skywings did not give him even a moment to argue!
This was the Skywing Clan that despised all order and rules, the heaven-defying pract.i.tioners of the Law of Speed!
It had taken them only a second to kill Sail Ward, and a second later, the Skywing Law Emperors moved together to flatten the Moon Reaching House!
*Rumble!*
With a great booming, a force jumped out from the Moon Reaching House.
Xia Buyun made a gesture, and the Skywings silently returned to their patriarch’s side. Going and returning took only the blink of an eye.
“Three Law Overlords and forty-six Law Emperors! This should be all of the fighting force of the Moonward Clan!” Oro was stunned as he used his mental energy to scan this powerful force.
A lethal fervor flashed in Xia Fei’s eyes. It was here! The strongest fighting force of the Moonward Clan had finally appeared!
…
Xia Buyun’s gaze chilled, and a surprised smile appeared on his lips.
“Golcen Ward? Here I thought you had already gone up.”
A tall and muscular man proudly stood between White Ward and Ulcen Ward, his body br.i.m.m.i.n.g with energy and a hint of cunning on his face. His sharp and pointy chin made him particularly easy to remember.
This was Golcen Ward, Ulcen Ward’s older brother and the Moonward Clan’s strongest fighter on the White Horse Constellation, a level 5 Law Overlord! He was just one step away from becoming a Superior Law Overlord!
At the Superior Law Overlord level, even if he did not want to go to the G.o.d Race, those above would forcefully recruit him. After all, Superior Law Overlord warriors had heaven-defying strength, and remaining in the White Horse Constellation would upset the balance of power, allowing the clan with the Superior Law Overlord to bully around others with their cultivation.
Golcen Ward, who was on the verge of reaching the Superior Law Overlord level, was not merely the number-one man in the Moonward Clan but was also the strongest existence in the White Horse Constellation. He was the strongest human in the Law Realm!
Golcen Ward had mostly spent his days hiding in the shadows of White Ward and Ulcen Ward, secretly controlling the situation from the background, so the ordinary people did not understand him and did not know that he was actually the true master of the Moonward Clan. However, Xia Buyun and the other Law Overlords of similar status knew.
Not long after the tragedy on Snake Isle, Golcen Ward had been recruited by the G.o.d Race, but to everyone’s surprise, this strongest Law Overlord of the Moonward Clan had still not been registered in the books of the G.o.d Race. Today, the Skywings had declared war against the Moonwards, and Golcen Ward had returned to his clan to take the reins of control!
This was naturally wonderful news to the Moonward Clan. Originally, the clan had only two Law Overlords, of which Ulcen Ward had been seriously injured by Xia Fei, making him much weaker. Alas, no one except the Dragon Ascension knew that Golcen Ward had already returned!
The strongest Law Overlord of the White Horse Constellation had returned to Moonward!
A single top-cla.s.s expert was enough to tip the scale of this battle!
For the first time in this clash between these two great clans, the balance began to tip in the Moonward Clan’s favor. Moreover, in this short time, Golcen Ward had managed to come up with the most gruesome, cruelest, and most vicious plan—one that was extremely disadvantageous to the Skywings and ensured that neither side would come out unscathed.
Xia Buyun had instantly spotted Golcen Ward, which was why he had waved his hand and recalled his Law Emperor warriors. He was a level 2 Law Overlord, while Xia Tian was a level 1 Law Overlord. It was clear that when it came to the number and quality of Law Overlords, the Skywings were on the backfoot.
Golcen Ward heartily laughed, displaying the arrogance only the strong could possess. “Yes, I went up there, but then I came back down!”
The Moonward Clan elites were reinvigorated. After all, Golcen Ward was currently the strongest Law Overlord in the White Horse Constellation, capable of going up against one hundred all by himself! He was also quite the strategist. Moonward Clan with him and without him were not on the same level!
Ulcen Ward and White Ward viciously stared at Xia Fei. Ulcen Ward had regrown his severed arm and the scar on White Ward’s face was no more, healed through some mysterious method.
After all, this was one of the Nine Great Clans! It had reigned over the universe for tens of thousands of years! It had a st.u.r.dy and deep foundation and had stored away numerous treasures. It was very normal to be able to heal such injuries.
“What? You seem surprised,” Golcen Ward disdainfully stated.
Xia Buyun smiled. “I am very surprised. I’m surprised that I can’t just trample on Moonward Clan today, but will also be flattening you! This will save me a lot of trouble in the future. Hahahaha!”
Xia Buyun was unafraid of the strongest Law Overlord in the White Horse Constellation at present! The wolves of the Skywing Clan all burst into laughter!
A super battle involving nearly one hundred fighters of the Law Emperor and above cultivation!
It was about to begin!
