Chapter 867: Chapter 346: Taking Charge and Pentakill (Part 2)
*****
Outside the Domain Master’s Mansion, Ning Yuchan swung her heavy hammer like a whirlwind, with each blow either gravely wounding or brutally killing a Fifth-Order Alien Species. Her might was fierce.
With Cui Chongguang, Li Zhen, Hou Yunzhang, and others charging in, the pressure on Xu Jin lessened, allowing him not to rush into action but instead to focus on stealthily recovering.
Just now, his energy consumption was still significant.
The Star Power of the Candou Platform had been triggered once.
Meanwhile, Xu Jin observed Ning Yuchan.
Ning Yuchan’s main combat style hadn’t changed much; it was still her self-created Vortex Blade Battle Method, but it seemed to be an upgraded version, the Vortex Hammer!
Incredibly powerful!
She had just injured a Sixth Rank Fourth Layer Alien Race, and if not for her urgency to rescue him, she could have slain it.
This showed the capability to kill enemies beyond her Realm.
Moreover, Xu Jin sensed that Ning Yuchan’s Gold Origin Star Pattern rank seemed quite high.
After ten breaths, the battle ended.
All three Sixth-tier Alien Generals were slain.
Out of one hundred and fifty Fifth-Order Alien Species, over a hundred were killed, leaving about fifty who quickly fled.
"Let’s go, charge inside and take a look!"
Xu Jin shouted mightily, taking the lead in chasing after the fleeing Fifth-Order Alien Species.
This time, no one questioned him.
Everyone, including Li Zhen, Cui Chongguang, Hou Yunzhang, and other Fifth-Order humans, instinctively followed behind Xu Jin, Ning Yuchan, and Ji Hongli, charging towards the depths of the Domain Master’s Mansion.
However, in the process of advancing, each of them cautiously formed into a battle formation.
This is how it is on the battlefield; once the fight begins, relationships become very straightforward!
Whoever is strong, whoever is fierce, they hold the power of speech!
The group will instinctively obey them!
As for the Governor, Cui Chongguang, the original leader, because of his poor performance, was automatically ignored by others!
Cui Chongguang was heavily injured by a punch from Shi Yan.
Yet Xu Jin, with just one sword, slew Shi Yan!
This comparison clearly set them apart.
It was a world of difference!
Coupled with Xu Jin’s solo charge into the formation, in a short time, Xu Jin had become the uncontested Commander of the team.
Only Ning Yuchan could rely on her past prestige to resist somewhat!
However, Ning Yuchan was too delighted at this moment to resist!
"Is it really you?" Ning Yuchan asked, keeping pace with Xu Jin while charging forward.
"What do you think?"
"Why didn’t you tell me?" Ning Yuchan’s eyebrows rose in anger.
"I did tell you!"
"When?"
"Remember the dream you had when you were seriously injured? At that time, your Divine Soul was severely injured, and I personally went to save you!"
"So my dream was real! I knew it..."
Ning Yuchan’s eyes reddened, almost on the verge of tears.
Behind them, Ji Hongli anxiously asked Xu Jin, "Senior Brother Qi, my father..."
"Don’t worry, we will definitely rescue your father!"
As Xu Jin reassured her, Ning Yuchan glanced at Ji Hongli with a slightly peculiar expression!
A dozen breaths later, the group followed the fleeing soldiers deep into the Domain Master’s Mansion, reaching the spot where Ji Xiuchuan and Jin Fan had faced off.
Even without those fleeing soldiers leading the way, Ji Hongli had already sensed it, and she had heard the standoff situation inside the mansion and informed Xu Jin of everything.
At this moment, she was extremely worried about her father, whom she had never truly seen since she could remember!
In the next instant, Xu Jin and his group quickly spotted Jin Fan, Ji Xiuchuan at the peak of tension, and the four Sixth-tier and dozens of Fourth-tier individuals surrounding Ji Xiuchuan!
"Halt!"
"The gate is a boundary; whoever dares cross, we’ll fight to the death! First kill the Domain Master, then clash with you!" Jin Bo, pointing at the advancing Xu Jin and his team, roared in fury.
The Clan Leader of the Golden Lion Clan, Jin Fan, remained quietly seated, observing the situation, reluctant to reveal himself too much.
But he wasn’t aware that Ji Hongli had already heard the entire situation using the Hundred Flowers Star Pattern and relayed everything to Xu Jin.
Xu Jin knew not only that Jin Fan was the real decision-maker but also clearly understood the current situation here!
A situation of mutual restraint!
As Xu Jin halted, everyone instantly stopped!
Seeing all the human reinforcements stop, the alien general Jin Bo, realizing his threat had worked, sneered, "Now, who among you can make decisions? Step forward!
The ransom for your Domain Master’s life is not cheap!"
"Let me tell you, your Domain Master, gravely injured, is on the brink of death, about to perish at any moment!"
This arrogance and pride made the humans enraged, but they could only suppress it.
Jin Bo turned around and looked at Clan Leader Jin Fan for affirmation, becoming even more pleased when Jin Fan nodded in confirmation!
It feels great to hold someone else’s weakness!
In the quiet room inside, as Ji Xiuchuan was about to say something, Jin Fan’s Divine Soul Transmission reached him, "If you want the Domain Master dead, you might as well speak up! Let us squeeze some benefits, make a deal, and there might still be a chance for reconciliation."
From afar, seeing the weak aura of Ji Cheng, Ji Hongli’s eyes reddened instantly.
"I!"
Behind Xu Jin, Cui Chongguang was eager to move, hesitating to step forward, but Xu Jin’s single word shattered his delusion, and he silently retracted his steps.
"You, can a Fourth Rank Seventh Layer make decisions?" Jin Bo looked at Xu Jin, full of doubt!
"He can make decisions!" Ning Yuchan voiced her support!
"Hahaha, very well, looks like another young master from a noble family!" Jin Bo laughed heartily.
Behind him, Jin Fan watched Jin Bo’s performance with great satisfaction.
Let the stall begin!
The longer the time drags, the better.
