Chapter 970 - Refining the Thunder Saint Pearl
They had missed their best opportunity to kill Liu Wuxie. Now that he had seized the Thunder Saint Pearl, he would become a living nightmare for the divine race. They understood all too well the terror of a human possessing the Ancestral Tree.
With the ancestral tree that naturally suppressed them, their chances of victory were close to zero if Liu Wuxie could make a breakthrough into the Spirit Profound Realm.
They had to kill Liu Wuxie before he made a breakthrough.
"Let's go," Qiao Bian said as he left with the Dragon Emperor Academy's disciples. There was no reason for them to linger.
The crowd began to disperse, but some lingered, searching around the ruins.
"Brother Liao, what should we do now?" asked a few experts beside Liao Changhong.
They had joined forces earlier, but even so, they had failed to kill Liu Wuxie. Chasing him any further would prove pointless.
"Even if he has obtained the Thunder Saint Pearl, I have ways to make him cough it up," Liao Changhong sneered as a sinister scheme took shape in his mind.
The eyes of those around Liao Changhong lit up. They knew him well. He was a prodigy who held high positions in the Heavenly Spirit Celestial Academy and the Liao Clan. Rumor had it that he had restored several ancient spiritual arrays long thought to be lost to time for the Liao Clan.
"Brother Liao, what's the plan now?" one of the disciples asked, curious about Liao Changhong's scheme.
Everyone turned to look at Liao Changhong, eager to hear of his plans.
