Lonely Soldier King

At this time, a late Emperor Stage powerhouse had already realized the danger. Normally, he wouldn't have minded, since Liu Yi's strength was only at the peak of the Heaven Stage. No matter how abnormal he was, his attack power would at most be at the mid Emperor Stage, so it was impossible for him to break through the late Emperor Stage defense.    

However, it was different now. After being randomly bombarded by the short-range missiles, not much true energy remained in his body. Furthermore, Liu Yi's dagger had injured him. It had greatly consumed the true energy in his body, and his wound was faintly aching.    

It could be said that a late Emperor Stage powerhouse was in a precarious situation. And facing Liu Yi's strongest attack, they had to ask if he could block it.    

Without the slightest hesitation, a late Emperor Stage powerhouse chose to flee in the face of this life-threatening danger.    

If I can't beat you, then I can at least escape right?    

This was the thought of a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse. He had also given up on his actions. When Liu Yi's true energy sword came slashing over, he immediately turned around and ran. All the true energy in his body was unleashed, and he desperately ran.    

As for running away, if Liu Yi wanted to chase after him, with Liu Yi's speed, it would not be a problem for him to spend a bit of time to catch up. But the problem was that the current crisis of the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group had not been resolved, and for the sake of a late Emperor Stage powerhouse, Liu Yi would definitely not take the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group's encampment seriously.    

Thus, when the late stage Emperor Stage powerhouses wanted to escape, Liu Yi decisively gave up the chase and charged at the middle stage Emperor Stage powerhouses that were being held up by the secret guards.    

Previously, he had displayed incomparable might and didn't think much of the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group. However, as the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group used a large number of short-range missiles against them, the pressure on him continued to increase, and he gradually realized that the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group could not compare to them in a one-on-one battle, but their firearms were extremely powerful.    

Honestly speaking, if it was possible, an Emperor Stage Middle Phase powerhouse really wanted to escape from this place, but he did not do so. It was because a late Emperor Stage powerhouse was doing his utmost to resist, hoping to invade the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group's encampment.    

The other party was stronger than him, so naturally, he chose to take him as his opponent. As a mid Emperor Stage powerhouse, he could only bitterly endure until the missiles stopped, thinking that the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group would not have any more bullets to use, and would only have this chance to attack the Burning Heaven Mercenary Country. However, unexpectedly, a group of strong people rushed out, desperately trying to stall him.    

It wasn't until a late Emperor Stage powerhouse was defeated and fled that he realized the danger he was in. He used all of his strength to try his best to jump out of the circle of battle and run as far away as he could.    

But, willingness is beautiful, reality is always cruel!    

Liu Yi caught up. Although this vicious god's strength was only at the Heaven stage, his combat strength was extremely powerful. To force back a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse, even though a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse had lost a lot of true qi, at this level, that was still a simple person.    

On the other hand, he himself only had less than a tenth of his true qi left. With so many people dragging him around, it was true that there was a tiger before him and a pursuer behind him. Naturally, the situation would not be good.    

However, there was no time for him to think any further. Liu Yi entered the battle at his highest speed and hacked at him with his Zhen Qi sword.    

Block!    

This was the only thing that could be done by a mid stage Emperor level powerhouse. But would he be able to block this?    

Don't forget, his combat strength has already reached its peak. Facing Liu Yi's ferocious attack, how could he possibly block it?    

With a swing of the sword, the body of a mid-stage Emperor Stage powerhouse was struck. The cyan colored true energy sword was like an enhanced laser light sword, slicing the body of a mid-stage Emperor Stage powerhouse into two halves.    

"Everyone hurry to the third passage and help them! Try to delay them!"    

With the current tense situation, Liu Yi would not care about the dead men. Now that he had the upper hand, he might as well hold the enemy back and wait for him to kill them one by one.    

"Yes …"    

All the secret guards headed to channel number 3, which was also the only exit behind them.    

Liu Yi quickly left Channel 1, leaving dozens of elite members to stand guard. He had to rush over to provide support.    

According to the layout of the Ancient Martial Alliance, they had sent two late stage Emperor Stage powerhouses this time. The four of them were split into two teams, one with a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse and the other one with a mid stage Emperor Stage powerhouse.    

Now that Channel 1 was wounded and dead, it was no longer a threat, but Channel 2's opening was not so. Liu Yi could still faintly hear the explosion coming from that side, so it was likely that Channel 2's opening was still using short range missiles to block their advance.    

According to Liu Yi's previous observations, within thirty seconds, the number of missiles fired at the headquarters of the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group would be two waves, a total of four to six missiles. By calculating, in one minute, a total of eight to twelve missiles would be fired.    

No matter how many missiles the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group had in their base, they could not withstand this consumption. There would eventually be a time when they would run out of missiles. Furthermore, every missile shot out was money. If the situation wasn't serious, Liu Yi wouldn't have wasted so much time.    

Thus, Liu Yi had to rush as fast as he could to the second passage's entrance, then stop the missile's attack. Thus, Liu Yi had to rush as fast as he could to the second passage, and then stop the missile's attack.    

Arriving at the second passage's entrance, everything was as Liu Yi expected. The secret guards were ready to attack at any time, and the missiles were constantly firing bombs. Liu Yi was greatly relieved after observing the situation of the two Emperor Stage powerhouses once again.    

The situation at the second passage was much better than the first passage. The two Emperor Stage old monsters had consumed much more true energy and were no longer a threat. If they were to use missiles to attack two more times, they would only have the last bit of strength to escape.    

However, their speed was not slow. Looking at them, they were only 300 meters away from the exit. If they had arrived later to provide support, who knew if they would have let them in.    

"Come and kill me …"    

Liu Yi sneered. He was filled with disdain towards the two Emperor Stage powerhouses and decisively gave the order.    

Now that he was down to it, Liu Yi naturally wouldn't be lazy. He also couldn't bear to see the secret guard that he painstakingly nurtured get hurt, being the first one to rush out.    

A skinny camel was bigger than a horse. If an Emperor Stage Late Phase powerhouse attacked a Secret Guard, even if they consumed a lot of true energy, they would still have the ability to kill the Secret Guard. At this time, only Liu Yi could block their attacks.    

Therefore, Liu Yi had to be at the front and be a God Tier Late Phase powerhouse so that he would have no time to attack the Secret Guards. Only then would he be able to slow down the mid-Emperor Stage powerhouses and realize his desire to kill them one step at a time.    

"Hmph …"    

Liu Yi coldly snorted and said in a clear voice. "You people of the Ancient Martial Alliance don't know what's good for you. I originally wanted to deal with you guys slowly in the future, but to think that you would actually come looking for me. Then, don't blame me for being ruthless."    

Just as Liu Yi had said, the people of the Ancient Martial Alliance didn't know what was good for them. From the very beginning, they were just crying and pretending to be merciful.    

If that's the case, then it's not Liu Yi's fault. Of course, this is also the beginning of Liu Yi's counterattack.    

"..."    

Once he made a move, he would use all his strength to cover himself!    

That was what Liu Yi was thinking. After all, the danger of the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group's encampment still hadn't been resolved, and any small detail could cause the entire Burning Heaven Mercenary Group to fall into a hopeless situation. With Liu Yi's identity as the leader of the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group, he naturally didn't know about this scene.    

He raised his Zhen Qi to its limit, and the stronger ones, regardless of the consequences, began bombarding the Emperor Stage Late Phase powerhouses sent by the Ancient Martial Alliance.    

In other words, he would have to use his strongest trump card. But now it was different, even though he was a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse, after going through the bombardment of missiles, his strength was not at its peak, and he only needed to use his usual strongest attack to take it down.    

"Bang …" "Bang …"    

A clash of zhenqi and zhenqi might not cause the world to turn upside down, but the air would condense and warp. If an ancient cultivator were to see it, they would have been able to tell that this ordinary clash was actually filled with killing intent.    

This was a battlefield, and often, a battlefield was extremely cruel. If one was not careful, it was possible that one would fall into an everlasting land.    

No one dared to be careless, including Liu Yi.    

Fortunately, using missiles to deplete their strength was effective. Currently, late stage Emperor Stage powerhouses were simply unable to unleash their strongest combat strength. In addition, their combat experience was very poor. As soon as they crossed blows, Liu Yi gained the upper hand.    

"Hmph …"    

"Humph!" Liu Yi coldly snorted and increased his strength. On the other hand, late stage Emperor Stage powerhouses continued to retreat, and on the surface, it seemed like they were the result of insufficient combat strength. But how fierce was Liu Yi's judgement? "Can you run away?"    

The late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse from before fled after getting injured. Liu Yi had the ability to kill him, but in the end did not chase up to kill him. Instead, he hastily rushed to the second passage's entrance.    

Now that they had obtained the upper hand in the second passage, there were only three early stage Emperor level old men at the third passage. With the powerful firepower of the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group's headquarters and the secret guards assisting them, there was no need to worry about the entrance being breached.    

If that was the case, then Liu Yi didn't need to hurry. He could just slowly kill the enemies with his strength and kill them all!    

"Since you dare to provoke me, then you must have the will to die." Liu Yi did not hold back as he spoke and did not show any mercy. He kept on attacking, wanting to kill his opponent.    

"Hmph …" A mere Heaven Stage brat actually dared to speak so arrogantly and shamelessly … "Hateful …"    

A late Emperor Stage powerhouse stomped his feet in anger, feeling extremely wronged in his heart.    

Normally, if a Heaven Stage cultivator said this to him, he would definitely kill him with a slap. Unfortunately, right now, he was at a disadvantage.    

"Take my punch …" Liu Yi had a cold smile on his face as he looked at the other party with disdain.    

"Why would I not dare?" The late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse also seemed to be angry. He took a stance and was about to fight head on with Liu Yi.    

Was Liu Yi that stupid?    

To be able to easily defeat him, Liu Yi definitely wouldn't use too much strength. This was Liu Yi's principle.    

In order to win, Liu Yi had to do whatever it took. On the surface, it looked like a fist, but inside his sleeve was a dagger. When the two fists collided, a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse would realize that Liu Yi's killing move was actually a dagger.    

The two fists collided, but the dagger flew out straight towards the chest of a late Emperor Stage powerhouse.    

It was accompanied by the sound of breaking air, an unstoppable force, and a murderous aura that could destroy everything!    

"Puff …"    

Liu Yi had succeeded. His dagger had struck the chest of a late Emperor Stage powerhouse, and then he had collapsed onto the ground with a loud crash.    

In fact, as a late Emperor Stage powerhouse, he could defend against this sneak attack, but he was still too careless. He was angered by Liu Yi's words, and the consumption of his Real Qi was extremely high. At the last moment, he discovered Liu Yi's sneak attack, and it was already impossible for him to dodge or block it.    

"Phew …"    

Liu Yi let out a long breath. If a late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse were to fall, it meant that the outcome of the battle would completely fall on their side. The following people were no longer a threat.    

Liu Yi leisurely pulled out the dagger from the chest of the late stage Emperor Stage powerhouse, then turned around to look at the other battle circle.    

Unfortunately, another battle had also ended. Under the siege of so many secret guards, although the secret guards had to pay a bit of a price, a middle stage Emperor Stage powerhouse was ultimately defeated by the sea of people due to insufficient Zhen Qi. At this moment, he was completely lifeless.    

"Everyone, support the third passage. We have to leave all the enemies behind." Liu Yi ordered in a cold voice.    

Aside from those who were injured in the battle, all the other secret guards rushed to channel number three.    

As for Liu Yi, he was not in a hurry to get to channel number three. Instead, he called for a member of the elite team to notify the film head and launch an offensive signal.    

As long as the experts of the Ancient Martial Alliance were dealt with, the remaining dozen or so middle-sized mercenaries were nothing to worry about. At least, Liu Yi didn't think much of them.    

Don't forget, this is the territory of the Burning Heaven Mercenaries. With the existence of the headquarters, how could they not have any heavy weapons? Once they use their powerful weapons, no amount of people would be able to save them.    

However, Liu Yi was not interested in dealing with the people outside. The only ones that caught his eye were the three Emperor Stage Mid Rank powerhouses at the entrance of channel three. That was why Liu Yi considered them his opponent.    

However, when Liu Yi arrived at the third passage, he was disappointed.    

The third passageway was the weakest one among the three tunnels, but it was also the one with the most success. By the time Liu Yi arrived, the three early Emperor Stage powerhouses had already fallen. Looking at their bodies, it wasn't hard to see that two of them died under the missile.    

As for the remaining one, he was surrounded by many secret guards. It was only a matter of time before he died.    

Seeing this situation, Liu Yi didn't interfere. He stood to the side and watched the secret guards fight.    

In less than three minutes, the battle ended and the early stage Emperor Stage powerhouses fell with a loud bang. At this point, the dozen or so experts of the Ancient Martial Alliance, who had the desire to destroy the Burning Heaven Mercenary Group, had died instead. The only ones still alive were the late stage Emperor Stage powerhouses who had fled earlier.    

After all, it was not easy to nurture an expert. Not to mention, even if it was an Emperor Stage powerhouse, after dozens of years, only one would be born.    

However, now that he looked at it, they were actually laid to rest here for a long time. This was truly pitiful.    

"Go …" You should go out and kill as much as you want! "    

Liu Yi had already heard the loud noise, and a gust of air pierced through the mountain towards Liu Yi. This was undoubtedly Shadow's signal, singing the prelude to counterattack.    

"..."
