“Miss Baiyue once said that Wood Battalion and Moon Frost Island would be friends forever.” Chen Mu said neutrally.

Baiyue only said that she and the White Commander would be friends forever, but Chen Mu changed her words to Wood Battalion. This was to remind Jia Yingxia that he commanded the Wood Battalion and to give Moon Frost Island an out. After all, his intention was not to clash with Moon Frost Island but to find the Demonic Woman.

Since his purpose has been accomplished, it would be irrational to clash with Moon Frost Island right now.

Chen Mu also felt that Moon Frost Island would not clash with them. There were many masters on their side, not to mention Wood Battalion’s involvement. Jia Yingxia would not provoke a dispute at this crucial time of an alliance between them.

His judgment was right!

Jia Yingxia cracked a smile and said, “Of course Moon Frost Island and Wood Battalion are friends. It is Moon Frost Island’s honor to see so many masters gathered together on this rare occasion.” Although she coveted Chen Mu’s notebooks, she knew it would be unwise to turn against him, so she took advantage of the out given.

In her heart, she was amazed by Chen Mu’s tact despite his age.

She looked at Cang Lan out of the corner of her eye, and chuckled, “Moreover, I am looking forward to witnessing the battle between Master Cang Lan and Master Caesar!”

Cang Lan wore an ugly expression; he never expected Chen Mu to have so many cards up his sleeve. The sheer number of masters on his side was astonishing. Jia Yingxia’s nonchalant words, as if an afterthought, had diverted everyone’s attention to the enmity between him and Caesar, driving him into a corner. He thought resentfully that nothing was more wicked than a woman’s heart!

“Haha! I also want to see what kind of fellow can challenge me.” Caesar’s mad laughter was filled with murderous intent and without a shred of fear.

On the other hand, Cang Lan calmed down and snickered, “Indeed, I thought you’d lost your drive since you didn’t take up the gauntlet even though I’d issued the challenge long ago. I was very disappointed!”

Caesar smirked, “At this stage, do you think I have to respond to every Tom, Dick, and Harry who challenges me?”

Cang Lan gradually became expressionless, and the fluctuations of energy in the air became stronger as if dark clouds were moving towards their direction. In the blink of an eye, the terrifying energy enveloped the entire hall, and there was no longer any sound coming from the audience.

It was as if the world was coming to an end. The fluctuations continuously bashed against the fragile souls of the people. The ordinary people in the audience had difficulting breathing and felt as if they had suddenly fallen into a frightening nightmare.

Jia Yingxia’s face turned pale. The effects of Cang Lan recklessly spreading his fluctuations on the ordinary people in the audience may be fatal.

At that moment, wanton and furious laughter rang out like thunderbolts on the horizon.

“That’s all you’ve got?”

Before he finished speaking, a murderous aura suddenly exploded like a volcano. Everything in the crowd’s sight was dyed scarlet. The violent fluctuations contained horrifying energy, like an unstable bomb right by their noses.

The feelings were chilling, pushing the crowd to the point of mental breakdown.

All of them seemed insignificant in the face of the turbulence of the endless murderous aura. They were tiny like a dingey struggling amidst a bloody sea, about to be pounded and destroyed at any second.

The expressions of Jiao Si, Fang Shi, Qing Qing, and Baiyue changed simultaneously, all of them looking at Caesar with fright. Even Jia Yingxia involuntarily blanched; Caesar was more powerful than she had thought. The Demonic Woman stared at Caesar in awe.

Chen Mu’s face was pale. Caesar didn’t intend to take care of him. He only just realized that the strength Caesar showed him last time was far from his actual strength. Only Wei-ah remained expressionless, though his gaze changed.

Cang Lan’s expression had also changed!

He didn’t expect Caesar to be this powerful. Based on age, Caesar had passed the prime of a card artisan, and his power should be on the decline.

Yet Caesar was like a lion in its prime, with no signs of decline. That was impossible! Cang Lan couldn’t believe this; how could an elderly card artisan maintain such a violent, murderous aura without any sign of decline?

A card artisan’s power was based on their physiology. Due to his body weakening, all aspects of an elderly card artisan’s attributes would also diminish. This was a law set in stone.

However, in front of him was someone who had violated this law!

He could clearly feel how powerful Caesar’s life force was, and it seemed to be in flames.

In flames?

Cang Lan’s heart missed a beat, could it be…

A huge number of card artisans suddenly flew out of a jungle four hundred kilometers from Qianhu.

“Report, everything is normal, nothing suspicious was spotted.”

Surprise was written all over the face of the card artisan making the report. He strived to control his emotions, but the excitement was audible in his voice.

While his dark brown eyes remained cold, Su Heiming could not hide his joy. He threw his head back and laughed, “Haha, indeed God has blessed me! Here, they wouldn’t be able to escape me! Haha!” He suddenly ducked his head, and his tone turned cold, and he said with a face full of murderous intention. “Tell the rest to follow the original plan; tell the departments to get into their formation. The remaining card artisans can rest and reorganize for five hours. After five hours, approach Qianhu without hiding the troop formation, and if you come across any troops along the way, kill them all!”

“Yes!” The card artisan responded sternly.

Card artisans flew out of the jungle like the tide, yet the forest seemed to contain countless card artisans. There was no end in sight to the swarm of card artisans. They looked quite tired, but their morale had not decreased. Upon finding out that they have almost reached Qianhu, all of the card artisans burst into cheers.

Su Heiming felt satisfied at this sight, but the smile on his face was chilling, “Haha, Jia Yingxia, that old woman, surely would not expect me to bring my troops to her gates! Tsk tsk, it is said that all the masters from Heavenly Drum Village District have gathered here. That’s great. I can capture all of them at the same time!”

His personal Iron Guard, Zhu Heng stood beside him quietly, but could not hide his excitement.

After this defeat, there wouldn’t be a Moon Frost Island anymore! This battle will be an earth-shaking war, and it would be a supreme honor to personally bring this about and to participate in it.

Su Heiming said with a bleak smile, “This ‘Jungle Dove’ is excellent as expected. We would have a lot of casualties if Tang Hanpei didn’t send us this batch of ‘Jungle Dove.’ He is, indeed a formidable man!” At these words, the excitement on his face faded, giving way to a complicated gaze. He was grateful to have such a powerful ally, but at the same time, it made him uneasy.

At this stage, they no longer had to hide their formation, nor was there any way to obscure their figures.

Hundreds of units with the mission of killing any person in sight.

The Snow Worm Card Artisan Team, Bogner and Xi Ping watched the screen fixedly, worried about their boss.

Seeing Jiao Si, Ru Qiu was on the verge of crying. Sue Lochiro also looked nervous.

Suddenly, the meter on Jiang Liang’s hand rang, and he opened the screen.

“Report! There are a huge number of unknown card artisans four hundred kilometers away!” The team member making the report trembled in panic.

Jia Liang had a feeling of foreboding. He knew the members of his team had great emotional fortitude, so the situation must be terrible for them to panic like this.

When he looked at the view displayed on the screen, he was totally astonished!

The Snow Worm Card Artisan Team immediately went into the highest state of alert. Meanwhile, in the tactics room, Bogner and Jiang Liang both had furrowed brows.

“I haven’t figured out which party these powerful card artisans belong to.” Jiang Liang pursed his lips tightly with a rare nervous look. He babbled, “According to our sources, there are over ten thousand people in the opposing party!” This figure made his heart tremble. This was the largest military operation since the establishment of the Heavenly Federation.

“No need to check, I know who this is. Hmph, it is Su Heiming. Su Hanhao has such a great son!” He pointed at the three-dimensional map fantasy cards, and murmured, “Under the guise of a purge, he secretly gathered his forces. Moon Frost Island was careless. They probably stealthily crossed the Dobinida Desert, then went over Tianheng Mountain, and entered the snow forest of the Heavenly Drum Village District, and moved all the way here!”

He snorted, “Su Heming’s trick was harsh, with great stakes. He has staked his life and reputation, and would not have the chance to rise again if he fails, but he was right in betting! Everyone was fooled by him!”

Jiang Liang said disbelievingly, “That is impossible! The journey from Tianheng Mountain here is surely more than sixty thousand kilometers. Without a Spinulosa Disk, how could they…”

“Don’t question their equipment! We have the Spinulosa Disk, so why can’t others?” Bogner interrupted Jiang Lian. He was unexpectedly calm, “We have to hurry. After crossing such a huge distance, they would surely have to take time to rest. This is our last chance. We have to charge before they finish encircling the gates! Or else, we will perish together with Moon Frost Island!”

“Where should we charge to?” Influenced by Bogner, Jiang Liang also calmed down.

Bogner scanned the three-dimensional map fantasy cards desperately and said, “It is not easy to charge. Based on Su Heiming’s strategy, he must have placed the troops on garrison duty at every major place. But time is of the essence! In such a short time, he surely would not be able to flawlessly encircle all the gates! What’s more, we have a secret weapon, Wood Battalion! If both teams, one from the inside and one from outside, attack one point simultaneously, we have a great chance of breaking through.”

His gaze locked on a point on the map.

“Go and contact Xiaobo and the team, tell them to abandon their wagons and quickly move towards Snow Edge Valley! Hide at the outer side of the valley, and remember not to draw the attention of the other party.”

“Snow Edge Valley? The terrain of this place is unfavorable to us!”

“That’s why Su Heiming would not put a large number of card artisans there, and others would not choose this direction as their breakthrough point. The bigger the size of the troops, the more easily it would draw the attention of Su Heiming and the faster we will die! Quickly inform Xiaobo and the team that their garrison should have a certain distance from the Snow Edge Valley, and they need to be there before the opposing party finishes resting. Once they have finished resting and reorganizing, they will start to surround the gates! Then we would only be left with the option of a match to the death.” Bogner’s expression was grim, “I’ll contact the boss!”

“Understood!” Jiang Liang answered clearly.

Bogner successfully got through to Chen Mu’s telecommunication card!
