"This guy is way too sharp!"

Miao Laogang cursed inwardly.

In this situation, he should do something to prevent the other party from noticing anything unusual.

But being clever, he didn't make a single move. Jiu Han's concealment skills were trustworthy. Even if Ying Wenzheng sensed something off, there was no way he could pinpoint the problem in such a short time.

Since that was the case, there was no need to gild the lily.

Miao Laogang simply watched Ying Wenzheng silently, not saying a single word.

Ying Wenzheng scanned his surroundings in all directions, and after confirming there was nothing out of the ordinary, he calmed down.

Miao Laogang thought to himself, just as I expected.

He glanced behind him and saw a shadowy mass creeping closer through the distant Nothingness.

That shadow was right behind Void Venerable and his army, positioned directly between Ying Wenzheng and the troops, perfectly blocking Ying Wenzheng's line of sight.

But he said nothing.

The Second Void Speaker, Miao Chengzhong, couldn't hold back any longer: "Ying Wenzheng, do you really think having enough Dominator Artifacts can stop our attack? You're underestimating us far too much!"

Ying Wenzheng squinted slightly and said, "Oh? Do you have some kind of trump card up your sleeves?"

Miao Chengzhong smiled faintly: "Naturally, we do!"

Miao Laogang sent a telepathic message: "What are you doing? Loose lips sink ships, don't you know that?"

"Big brother, relax. There's no way he could possibly know our plan! And even if he did, it wouldn't matter—he can't change this outcome anymore!" Miao Chengzhong replied with complete calm.

"You absolute idiot!" Miao Laogang was getting angry.

Ying Wenzheng frowned. From Miao Chengzhong's tone, he could indeed sense the confidence of the Nothingness Dominators and their allies. It seemed the enemy really did have a trump card!

Ying Wenzheng took a deep breath, already prepared to die together with them. Now that this junior Seven Stars had appeared, he felt much more at ease about the Alliance's future development. Without him, the Alliance could still hold the line.

"Bring out whatever trump cards you have, or you'll never get the chance to use them!" Ying Wenzheng said slowly.

Miao Yongqing burst into loud laughter: "Hahaha! Today is the day you die, Ying Wenzheng!"

Miao Laogang sent an angry telepathic message: "Third Brother, when we get back, you're confined to the Secluded Ancient Domain for ten thousand Kalpas!"

The smug smile on Miao Yongqing's face instantly froze.

Instead, Ying Wenzheng's brow relaxed slightly: "So I'm the target after all?"

He stared sharply at the three across from him, and the primal source power within his body began to churn. It was like a furnace had started spinning wildly.

Inside the city, the massive chaotic fire vein connected to Ying Wenzheng's body. An ocean of Chaos Flame surged wildly into him.

Ying Wenzheng kept compressing that Chaos Flame, and his power built up frantically.

At that moment, the three Void Speakers also sensed something was wrong.

"What is this guy planning?"

Miao Laogang felt something off, but just like Ying Wenzheng earlier, he couldn't pinpoint the specifics.

"Damn it, he's not thinking of going down fighting, is he?" Miao Chengzhong guessed.

Miao Yongqing coughed: "Maybe we should pull back a bit?"

"Now you're scared?"

Miao Laogang snorted coldly, completely speechless at his two younger brothers.

He waved a hand.

The three of them then retreated a considerable distance.

Seeing this, Ying Wenzheng didn't stop his actions.

Weren't they the ones saying they were going to take him out? Why were they scared now?

Too late!

He was already ready!

Suddenly, a voice echoed in Ying Wenzheng's mind.

"Speaker Ying, no need to rush. This time, these three won't be getting away!"

Ying Wenzheng was stunned. That was Seven Stars' voice.

Could it be that Seven Stars really had a way to deal with these three?

Ying Wenzheng slowed his movements. The self-destruction he had been brewing was halted.

Far away, Miao Laogang sensed the crisis dissipating and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just wait for the right moment. No need to panic."

Miao Laogang said to the other two.

Time ticked by slowly.

In the blink of an eye, the shadow had already neared the city wall.

Miao Laogang and his two companions quietly moved above the shadow, using their intense presence to mask the traces of Void Venerable and Dominator Jiu Han.

Void Venerable sent a primal source telepathic message to Miao Laogang: "I'm ready! We can move at any time!"

Miao Laogang nodded with satisfaction: "Excellent. Now it's your show!"

"Don't worry. You're in for a big surprise!" Su Yuan laughed.

Miao Laogang and the others followed the army as it slowly approached the city wall.

Ying Wenzheng couldn't see the army hidden beneath the shadow, but he could see Miao Laogang's group getting closer. He immediately went on high alert.

At some point, as if sensing something, he swung his sword fiercely downward toward the three!

The Sword Light tore through Nothingness and multiplied into tens of thousands!

Hundreds of billions upon billions of Sword Lights filled the entire Nothingness. Their individual power was weak, but their range was enormous.

Miao Laogang and the others moved as fast as they could, but some Sword Lights still struck the shadow.

And so, the army was exposed.

Ying Wenzheng saw Void Venerable sitting leisurely on top of [the Boundless]!

"It's you! Tian Mu!" Ying Wenzheng glared.

"Hahaha, please, call me Void Venerable!" Su Yuan laughed uncontrollably. "Today is the day you die!"

His words were dripping with heavy sarcasm!

"It's time!" Su Yuan looked at Miao Laogang, Miao Chengzhong, Miao Yongqing, and Jiu Han. "Are you ready?"

"Begin!" Miao Laogang waved a hand.

"Good!"

Su Yuan activated the long-charged [the Boundless]!

"Wait, the order is wrong, isn't it? First breach the city wall, then activate the Boundless!" Miao Laogang reminded him.

"No, the order is just right!"

Su Yuan laughed wildly. "Let's all die together!"

In an instant, Su Yuan, using his authority as the controller, claimed the lives of three hundred trillion Scavengers, instantly gathering all their primal source energy into his own body.

Then his form collapsed and condensed into a single point!

At that moment, Su Yuan transformed into a super bomb. With the self-destruction power amplified by countless living beings, its might was beyond imagination!

Any being within the Second Frontline, as long as they were in the blast radius, would not be spared!

Especially Miao Laogang, Miao Chengzhong, Miao Yongqing, and Jiu Han, who were the closest—they would surely fall!

They naturally tried to flee at the first instant.

But before Su Yuan had condensed his self-destruction, [the Boundless] had already been deployed!

An invisible barrier had already enveloped Miao Laogang, Miao Chengzhong, Miao Yongqing, and Jiu Han, making escape impossible!

Ying Wenzheng and the countless Chaos Dominators on the city wall stared in stunned silence. A million thoughts flashed through their minds as they were completely shocked by everything before them.

"Farewell!"

A leisurely voice echoed through the skies of Skywind City!

Boom—!
