Chapter 908 - Fight

Li Huowang swung open a rift, slicing through a bandit on horseback and instantly cutting him into several pieces. His internal organs scattered on the ground as he screamed in agony.

Li Huowang roared, and the ground within dozens of meters around him instantly turned into a swamp, trapping the bandits.

Liquid sand and stone filled their mouths and noses, and the swampy land returned to its original form.

This was the You Capital of the Great Qi. The forces of the Tianchen Kingdom were launching a full-scale attack, and the entire area had become a battlefield.

It wasn’t just Li Huowang fighting; Li Sui was also giving it her all. Tentacles emerged from Li Huowang’s back and darted at odd angles. They went from bandit to bandit, entering through their left ears and exiting through their right ears.

Dozens of tentacles strung people together like a skewer. With a quick pull, all the bandits impaled by Li Sui’s tentacles turned on their comrades, raising their weapons to attack them.

Dealing with these bandits was overkill for them. The bandits and thieves from the Tianchen Kingdom were no match for them.

The bodies kept piling up, with each fallen bandit being replaced by another—there was a seemingly endless number of them. The Tianchen Kingdom clearly intended to use them as cannon fodder.

They had to use a more efficient method to deal with them.

Li Huowang let out a resounding chant, igniting himself in an instant. The flames swiftly traveled along Li Sui’s tentacles, creating a breathtaking and blinding spectacle—a human bonfire that emerged at the heart of the battlefield.

The flames he conjured at the cost of his own skin carved a massive, fiery trench across the You Capital.

Li Huowang charged forward amidst the chaos. The bandits spontaneously combusted wherever he went, experiencing the agony he had endured.

Seeing the flames engulf everyone around him, Li Huowang stomped his feet and leaped onto a catapult. “Launch me! Aim for the densest crowd outside the city! Let’s see how many can burn!”

The taut rope was quickly cut with an axe.

Now that the Great Liang’s Chief and the soldiers from Great Liang had arrived, the situation began to stabilize.

They quickly cleared the city of bandits and thieves. Then, they sealed the four gates once again.

However, the situation soon took a turn for the worse. The Tianchen Kingdom had a countermeasure. There were over a hundred faceless figures painted in theatrical makeup scattered throughout the You Capital, and they began to steal the Heavenly Daos from the Great Liang’s Surveillance Bureau.

Soon, a Lama whose Ten Emotions and Eight Sufferings had been completely extracted fell like a dried corpse.

This was just the beginning. The Surveillance Bureau was no match against the faceless enemies who could steal the Heavenly Daos.

They would be doomed if this situation continued. If the Surveillance Bureau were to be wiped out, they would lose before the real fight even began.

This is a trap! Their target isn’t me! They are targeting the Surveillance Bureau! Li Huowang pressed his face against a nearby ally’s, crossed his legs, and began to cast the Heavenly Treasure of Deception.

The faceless ones realized what was happening and quickly opened rifts to the Tianchen Kingdom to escape.

At that moment, Li Huowang suddenly stopped. He peeled off his face, revealing Li Sui’s disguised face as Shangguan Yuting.

The one casting the Heavenly Treasure of Deception was a fake. The real Li Huowang had slipped into the crowd and followed one of the faceless ones back to the Tianchen Kingdom.

Li Huowang realized that passively reacting to the enemy wouldn’t work. He needed to seize the initiative!

As the saying goes, capture the ringleader to win the fight. When dealing with the Tianchen Kingdom, neither the army of Unspeakable nor anything else truly mattered—the key was their Twisted One, who could open a path between the Tianchen Kingdom and the Great Qi.

Li Huowang scanned the area as soon as he arrived in the Tianchen Kingdom. His gaze locked onto a man in a red robe with a fox mask, walking on stilts in the distance. That person was the Twisted One.

1. The technique from the Sitting Oblivion Dao that he had used to summon Doulao. ☜
