Chapter 1766 Ying Weishu

The Crown Prince charged Alex with an attack, screaming in rage as he did so.

Alex made a simple stroke with his sword and destroyed the spear attack that was coming his way. He then attacked back, hitting the Crown Prince in the chest, leaving a long bloody gash with the sword.

The Crown Prince was blasted away, and he fell from the sky, losing the battle in a single exchange of attacks.

'What the hell?' Alex thought. 'Did he not want to fight? Why did he charge me then?'

The thought confused Alex, but he quickly got rid of the thought, turning around to deal with the Emperor when suddenly an attack streaked up through the side, landing on him.

Alex protected himself at the last second using Midnight and slowly put down the sword to see who had attacked him.

An older woman stood some distance away from him with with nearly 400 different soldiers behind her in a cluster, and a floating illusory dragon moving around them.

Alex recognized her. It was the same woman who had brought him the 'gift' 2 years ago on the eastern shores of the Southern Continent.

"Ying Weishu, was it? Commander of the 3rd battalion of the Talon Legion?" Alex asked the woman.

"I did not think you would remember me," the woman said. "Your ego seems too big to hold someone small like me."Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

"You are indeed small for me," Alex said turning around. "You were a messenger back then, so I left you alive. Have you come to die this time?"

The woman's mocking smile faded slightly, and she put on her real emotions as she looked at Alex in hatred. "Don't think too highly of yourself just because you managed to sneak into the empire with an army. Separated from your people, you are only just looking to die."

"Let's see how being with your people helps you here."

He started the fight with a sword slash that sent out a fiery attack that flew toward the woman.

The woman thought nothing of the attack at first, simply throwing out an attack to stop it. However, when the attacks clashed together, they created a large enough explosion that the shockwave from them sent shivers down the woman's spine.

Alex saw two possibilities as to why the barrier was as strong as it was.

The first possibility was that there was an excellent Formation master in the Eastern Continent who made such perfect formations that its efficiency could be good enough to be a barrier to this power.

However, Alex doubted this was the case for two reasons. One, there were too many such formations currently forming all around the battlefield.

Each leader forming such an array was using the formation, and there was no way there were so many incredible formations created.

If there were, Alex would have known the names of the ones.

Second, Alex could not see the formation plate or flags that could be used to produce this formation. Even if there was some hidden, it was pretty much impossible for it to lose out of Qi to use when clearly not connected to a Spirit vein.

As such, Alex believed the second possibility to be the more likely one.

The barrier that formed around the people in the battle array was not due to a formation, but rather a technique.

And if Alex had to guess, it was a group technique. Meaning, it was the result of an array as well.

Whether the array was the same one empowering the single person or not, Alex did not figure it out just yet.

'If only Brother Huan knew more about the army,' Alex thought. This would have all been so much easier.

In the end, the man was never interested in learning about the army of his empire and was interested in other things.

A surge of water formed in front of Alex suddenly, bringing him out of his thoughts. Alex felt the terrifying power behind the tidal wave that made its way toward him in the air.

He attacked the water with his icicles, and while they disrupted the wave somewhat, an Immortal attack was simply too much for Alex to deal with.

Instead, he simply teleported out of the attack's path, arriving right behind the woman, ready with an attack.
