Chapter 637: Reversing Heaven And Earth
The peculiar appearance of the silver halo was so abrupt that many people in Xiajing City took notice of the anomaly in the sky. They also saw Li Xiaofei and his companions who appeared along with it.
However, many of them did not recognize Li Xiaofei. Nor were they familiar with Li Junjie, Nan Hua, Ye Liuying, and the others. Although they had rendered meritorious service to Great Xia in the past, they had always moved in the shadows.
Their numerous achievements had never been publicly acknowledged. Thus, the sudden emergence of a group of such young men and women brought a sliver of hope to the praying citizens below. But only a sliver.
"The white horse adorned with golden reins, gallops swiftly towards the northwest.
May I ask, whose son is he? A wandering knight of Youbing..."
The prayers and chants in the city continued. Their voices resonated in harmony between heaven and earth as they began from the first verse of The White Horse Ode once again.
Li Xiaofei took a deep breath of the air of his home planet. His eyes quickly found Howard and the others hovering in the void outside the city.
"Rescue Commander Chu Yuncheng," said Li Xiaofei. His voice was as cold and sharp as a blade. "Disable the foreign warriors and capture them alive for now—don't kill them yet."
"Got it, boss," Li Junjie responded. He darted forward without hesitation.
At the same time, Ye Liuying, Nan Hua, and the others transformed into streaks of light, shooting towards the battlefield outside the city.
Outside the city, the Divine Envoy’s heart suddenly tightened. The sheer speed of Li Junjie and the others, along with the overwhelming energy radiating from them, made him realize that these newly arrived experts were far from ordinary.
