Chapter 1056: Chapter 978: If You Want to Escape, Then Let You Escape! It can be said that if even one of the five War Gods from the Battle Division had a bit of backbone and delayed calling for support, Wen Ping would be confident in having the Wood Dragon and others harvest them all.
If the five nearly invincible War Gods under the Celestial Unrestricted were to die, it would undoubtedly be a massive blow to the Battle Division of the Covering Sky Tower.
Their fall could serve as a warning to the entire Covering Sky Tower.
Those who offend the Immortal Sect, must be killed!
If you want revenge, then be prepared to pay an even greater price than today!
Moreover, their deaths could provide Wen Ping with more controllable corpses, and the top combat power of the Immortal Sect could rise significantly.
Unfortunately.
They were not that courageous.
After the token shattered, the best scenario in Wen Ping’s mind was destined to come to nothing.
Even if the talk of a quarter-hour was a smokescreen, it was impossible for the Wood Dragon and the others to kill the uncommitted and escape-minded Kui Qing and his four comrades in a short time.
"Kui Qing, since you all like to escape, then as the Sect Leader, I’ll let you escape to your heart’s content," Wen Ping focused his gaze on Jing Wuxing, who was being pursued by the Netherworld Black Dragon King and the Wintery Ice Dragon King, "Then I’ll kill you first!"
Wen Ping immediately set his heart thought in motion.
Command issued!
Wood Dragon and Dark Stream Annihilation, abandon the pursuit of Wan Zhi and Bu Jin!
Instead, encircle and annihilate Jing Wuxing, make sure to kill Jing Wuxing in the shortest time possible!
The moment the command was issued, the Wood Dragon ceased its relentless pursuit, quickly turned back, and its ghostly green dragon eyes locked onto Jing Wuxing traversing through the Sea of Clouds. Then it turned into a stream of light rushing toward the sky, heading directly for Jing Wuxing.
At this time, Wan Zhi, who was being hunted by the Wood Dragon, was completely caught off guard.
He was not aware that the Wood Dragon was no longer chasing him.
Out of sheer terror, Wan Zhi continued to dash through the sky at full speed, sometimes rushing into the clouds, sometimes darting through the woods and across the plains.
Meanwhile, Dark Stream Annihilation also stopped pursuing Bu Jin, instead wielding its giant Black Scythe and charging into the clouds to slash at Jing Wuxing, sealing off Jing Wuxing’s path downward.
Similarly, Bu Jin, who was solely thinking about escaping to buy time, also didn’t realize what had happened.
The two of them only realized that their pursuers, the Wood Dragon and Dark Stream Annihilation, had changed targets when Kui Qing shouted.
"What are you two still running for!"
"Are your eyes blind, and is your perception blind too?"
Kui Qing’s scolding caused the two to belatedly stop and, upon turning back, indeed saw no sign of the Wood Dragon and Dark Stream Annihilation, finally feeling relieved.
Finally not chasing.
Freed!
Just as the two sighed in relief, Kui Qing’s alarmed voice echoed again, "Damn, they want to focus on dealing with Brother Jing."
Wan Zhi and Bu Jin were stunned, and before they could look in Jing Wuxing’s direction, they heard a loud bang from the distant sky.
Boom——
When the two looked towards Jing Wuxing, they saw only the image of Jing Wuxing plummeting to the ground like a falling star.
"Brother Jing!"
"Brother Jing!"
The two cried out in shock, their relief instantly vanishing without a trace.
The Demon God of the Covering Sky Tower indeed was no longer pursuing the two of them, but they had encircled and trapped Jing Wuxing like a caged bird.
In a one-on-one, Jing Wuxing still couldn’t gain the upper hand.
Let alone one against four!
What kind of scene would that be?
The two knew it better than anyone!
Just as the two were showing expressions of shock, a word came drifting in.
"Help——"
The plummeting Jing Wuxing could only utter one word before a mouthful of hot blood surged up his throat, forcibly choking back the words he wanted to shout.
"What should we do?"
"Help or not help?"
The two exchanged a look, their faces showing the dilemma of being torn between two choices.
To help?
That would be like handing themselves over.
Not to help?
Jing Wuxing was doomed to die.
After a gaze exchange of two breaths between them, a resolution formed in their hearts, and their eyes locked onto Kui Qing, who was being chased and chopped by the Sword Demon.
