Chapter 22: Overwhelming Might
The Aquafire Martial Supreme reacted as quickly as he could; however, other than saving his grandson and himself, there was nothing more that he could do.
A shining ray of light tore through the sky, making a beeline straight for the marching Aquafire Empire. And in a matter of microseconds, the light ray pierced through the front of the army, annihilating thousands of soldier cultivators before they even realized what had happened.
"We’re under attack!" Xia Wen shouted with an uncharacteristic tone of weariness.
He may not have seen who unleashed that ray of light, but whoever it was, the culprit definitely wasn’t below the Martial Supreme Realm.
For Xia Wen, this sounded impossible. However, that degree of power could only be exhibited by someone of the Martial Supreme Realm; there was no way it was anyone weaker.
"I should’ve been the only Martial Supreme in Huaxia, whether belowland or aboveland, so where did this unknown powerhouse come from??" Xia Wen cursed under his breath, attempting to locate the source of that devastating light ray.
Just then!
*Fwooop—*
Another light ray, this one twice as large as the previous one and originating from a different direction!
"Sh*t!" Xia Wen used his Spiritual Energy to condense a barrier surrounding him and his grandson.
