I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1979 - 1340: Canโt Wait Another Moment
The difference between thirty and ten is twenty years, and itโs significant; but when comparing three hundred years to two hundred and eighty, that gap seems minuscule, almost โsame-aged,โ because the main numeric calculation has changed. ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐๐๐ป๐ผ๐ฏ๐๐.๐๐ผ๐บ
"Hmph, letโs not talk about this, going to sleepโwake me up when we get there." Tanshia Firlo, at a loss for words, adjusted her seat and lay back to sleep.
Dragons can sleep well. Since traveling is boring, she could sleep all the way to their destination.
The spaceship fell silent again, as Qi Xiangyun looked at the vast universe and sighed almost imperceptibly. The New World was so vast. Even if they could freely leave Tianhe in the future, finding Zheng Yichen would be a distant wish, wouldnโt it?
But before that, they must first settle accounts with the Hundred Clans. After settling accounts, a new Hundred Clans might emerge in the New World, but as long as the new clans hold no grudge against Tianhe, it would be fine.
Tanshia Firlo woke up amid a slight tremor.
She opened her eyes somewhat drowsily, then woke up completely with a start: "Have we arrived?"
"Soon, but we have something to deal with first," Liu Hongzhao said, caressing her weapon.
Tanshia Firlo was a little puzzled. She opened the panel to look outside the spaceship, and immediately understood, "Have we arrived ahead of that fleet?"
"No, this is the subsequent support fleet, their speed is faster than ours."
"...Are we exposed?"
"No, we plan to wipe out this fleet."
Tanshia Firlo pondered and then asked, "Isnโt this a bit impulsive?"
Qi Xiangyunโs proposal was tempting, but taking action now seemed unwise and could potentially draw in more fleets.
The best place to act would naturally be upon reaching Qingtian Star. Once there, they could disguise themselves as natives. Even if they cleaned up this batch of fleets, it wouldnโt attract excessive attention.
"Weโre very close to Qingtian Star here. Iโm confident in capturing all the escapees," Qi Xiangyun emphasized.
The three of them were all radicals on the Tianhe Battlefield, even though their appearances were admired by many of the younger generation, they were also considered โsorceressesโ by many young people of Tianhe.
After all, the Heart Demon Tribulation was developed by them, and most of the newcomers to Tianhe who experienced the Heart Demon Tribulation were deeply shadowed by them.
"What are we waiting for then? Letโs get moving. Anyway, you all made the decision while I was sleeping."
Tanshia Firlo no longer hesitated. The enemyโs fleet was much faster, and delaying any further would mean missing their chance.
But upon shifting her perspective, Tanshia Firlo was taken aback: "Weโre almost there already?"
"I told you, weโre very close to Qingtian Star."
The small white dragon looked at the star that was already near, though still distant within the universe, and smirked without any further worry.
"Shall I make the first move then?"
"No, let me," Qi Xiangyun shook her head.
As they continued their approach, Tanshia Firlo clicked her tongue; she realized her previous worries were for nothing. She was still muddled from oversleeping. Clearly, they intended to act once close to Qingtian Star.
She thought seriously about the pros and cons, only to find it was a waste of brain cells.
The fleet behind them was faster, but both sides were very near Qingtian Star, and the Hundred Clansโ Fleet had gradually slowed down, not far behind.
The distance between them was just right; with a little opportunity, they could wreak havoc on the rear of the enemy.
On Tianyun Mountain, a group of Divine Craftsmen, eyes bloodshot, was staring at Thunderstorm Land.
The thunderstorm in Thunderstorm Land was much more powerful than that of the Earth Fire well. With Xiyunโs assistance, and after working hard here for several days, they finally repaired the damaged battle armor.
During this time, they were on edge, fearing that the Hundred Clansโ fleet would attack again. If there was an attack, while they might not have failed altogether, the battle armorโs repair would certainly not meet expectations.
However, the Hundred Clansโ fleet remained quiet, which made more people uneasy. If only they would initiate an attack or two, even weak ones, it wouldnโt make them so unsettled.
But the absence of any action from the Hundred Clansโ Fleet created a particularly direct sense of pressure; the Hundred Clansโ Fleet seemed to be holding back for a major assault. Though they were on their home turf on Qingtian Star, they had no home advantage whatsoever.
Their overall combat strength was far inferior to that of the Hundred Tribes Alliance Army. The fear wasnโt their fleet wouldnโt do anything, it was that they would call for reinforcements, and that would be the worst-case scenario.
"Hopefully, it wonโt be the worst-case scenario."
A Divine Craftsman looked at Xiyun coming out from Thunderstorm Land and immediately greeted him: "Lord Xiyun, the timing doesnโt match. What happened?"
"I tried to find that senior, but I couldnโt," Xiyun said. He thought that since he was already there, heโd greet that senior, but after wandering several laps around Thunderstorm Land, he didnโt see anyone.
"If only this senior were willing to help us."
The speaking Divine Craftsman was full of regret. He then looked at the battle armor Xiyun was wearing, adorned with lightning patterns, with intense admiration: "Great, great, great, with this armor, Lord Xiyun, your pressure will be much less from here on."
"Yes, letโs go back first."
Xiyun frowned slightly as he glanced at the sky: "The worst-case scenario has emerged."
Through the spatial distortion he could see, Xiyun noticed a new fleet approaching.
The implication was clear: the fleet that initially failed to annihilate them had really prudently called in reinforcements to crush them thoroughly.
Xiyun was baffled by this, given that the Hundred Tribes Allianceโs frontline was already under significant pressure. Why arrange things this way?
Just because of a once-destroyed, now-repaired advanced battleship? Or to make an example out of them?
Other planets might not receive the news. Is it worth it doing this?
Even if reinforcements arrived, if pushed, he could still gamble everything to take down the enemy fleetโs advanced battleship, resulting in even greater losses for the Hundred Clans.
"Hopefully, this time we can hold them off."
Another Divine Craftsman sighed with melancholy, acknowledging that many more would die this time. But he knew full well, without Xiyun and their sideโs advanced battleship, at the first attack from that fleet, the United Army of the continent would have been obliterated.
Back at the tribe, the atmosphere was extremely tense. Only after Xiyun appeared did the anxiety somewhat ease. When people saw the battle armor he wore, there was a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
The advanced battleship docked on their side had already detected anomalies from outer space and issued warnings. The enemy didnโt even bother to hide their traces, intending to impose maximum pressure by sheer frontal force.
"Boss Xiyun, the enemy has presented us with a notice. If we cooperate, given your power, Boss Xiyun, the Hundred Clans would allow us to become their vassal and retain the advanced battleship."
"But thatโs still being cannon fodder, isnโt it? The Hundred Clansโ ship is already sinking. Did they say anything else?"
"Yes, they wonโt require us to fight on the battlefield but demand further investigation into Thunderstorm Land, and for you, Boss Xiyun, to accept their examination..."
Xiyun understood: "So thatโs how it is."
The sudden reinforcement from the Hundred Clans wasnโt just for him but also for Thunderstorm Land. Even the advanced battleship on his side seemed less important.
The person relaying the message leaned in closer: "Boss Xiyun, some people want to agree, but weโve already controlled them."
Xiyun nodded without saying anything. Those who wanted to agree were foolish. As long as he was around, the enemy would negotiate. Without him, why would they need to negotiate?
If they could easily manipulate everyone here, why bother negotiating? They could just take whatever they wanted. Do they really think that without their presence, the enemy wouldnโt be able to investigate Thunderstorm Land?
Abandoning their martial arts would be a dead-end move.
"Prepare for battle. If all goes well, weโll soon have a new advanced battleship."
Xiyun looked at the sky, the once-normal sky suddenly covered by dark red thunderclouds.
The enemyโs fleet was under attack behind them. The bloody thunderstorm from the clouds obscured most of the sky, and the explosive flames were clearly visible in Xiyunโs eyes.
"Have the others take action!!" Although unsure of what was happening, Xiyun saw this as an excellent opportunity.
The lightning on his battle armor flashed as he soared toward the sky like a bolt of lightning, feeling exceedingly impulsive but unwilling to wait another moment to strike!
