Chapter 597: The Wolf Smoke Regiment (3)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At Linghe’s whistle, a trace of amus.e.m.e.nt appeared on Ji Fengyan’s lips. She glanced down at the sea of demons beneath her. Holding her evil-vanquishing sword, Ji Fengyan drew and burnt a Five-Blow-Thunderstruck talisman.
In an instant, dark clouds gathered and scores of lightning descended from the sky—annihilating everything!
Thunder rumbled across the air as the Blaze Army soldiers witnessed the ma.s.s of stormy clouds covering the entire village. Sheets of deep blue lightning, accompanied by the ear-piercing screams of the demons, ripped apart those bloodied grounds.
The few soldiers of the Blaze Army were completely thunderstruck. They gaped at this miraculous scene. This was the first time they had felt such an intense shock.
What mighty power!
The two rescued children were also watching incredulously as the lightning destroyed those demons who had taken everything away from them. Fear faded from their eyes and they gazed up at Ji Fengyan—standing proud and erect with her sword raised high. That image became their shining beacon and was forever imprinted in their hearts.
At this moment, the Blaze Army men understood why Linghe and the rest didn’t go forth to support Ji Fengyan. It was exactly as Linghe had said.
Ji Fengyan alone was enough…
As thunder circulated the air, I turned all the demons into black charcoal. They were only low-level demons and had no chance against the lightning strikes.
After the last demon had fallen, Ji Fengyan dispersed the clouds and flew toward Linghe and company.
Having witnessed the entire scene, the Blaze Army men now gazed at the flying figure with new-found respect and reverence.
They felt guilty about their initial reservations about the Wolf Smoke Regiment and Ji Fengyan.
Ji Fengyan landed and scanned the remaining Blaze Army soldiers. They had suffered many injuries and were lucky to still be alive. Meanwhile, those two children were staring at Ji Fengyan, their eyes full of worship and wonder.
“Are you… a G.o.d?” The young kid looked at Ji Fengyan with adulation.
The child’s innocent words shocked Ji Fengyan.
G.o.d?
This world had survived far too long from the times when there were legends of G.o.ds. Man could already not tell whether G.o.ds truly existed. In fact, there were many who felt that G.o.ds were only a figment of the imagination, a representation of hope.
That kid’s innocent query was understandable.
At least…
For as long as they could remember, there had been no one who could soar through the sky so easily—not to mention the ability to summon lightning at will.
In the children’s eyes, Ji Fengyan’s appearance made her seem like a G.o.d. She had eliminated the darkness and brought them the hope of life.
Ji Fengyan never imagined she would be linked to the G.o.ds and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Meanwhile, Linghe and the rest were laughing discreetly. They certainly couldn’t fault the innocence of those two children. Ji Fengyan’s actions and powers had truly surpa.s.sed all that they knew.
Not just these kids, even Linghe themselves had been completely awed the first time they witnessed Ji Fengyan using her Five-Blow-Thunderstruck talisman.
“I am not a G.o.d, I am the General of the Wolf Smoke Regiment.” Ji Fengyan explained gently.
However, those two children did not really know what was a Wolf Smoke Regiment. They were more willing to believe that Ji Fengyan was a G.o.d sent by the heavens to save them.
