Chapter 1513: Chapter 1486: Sudden Upheaval
“What are you all standing around for? Get over here and save people!”
Xiao Yi turned back and shouted at the group of people looking dumbfounded from a distance.
Wei Du.
Wei Yang.
Zhao Lei and the others all looked at each other, showing expressions of disbelief.
“Am I dreaming?”
“Is this really a new recruit?”
Luo Xiang looked at the dazed Wei Yang and mocked, “Didn’t you say that they were just a rookie? Now it seems this rookie is way more capable than you, an old-timer!”
“…”
Wei Yang glared fiercely at Luo Xiang but was speechless in response.
She felt extremely awkward right now.
She had just mocked Xiao Yi, only to be slapped in the face immediately afterward.
Shu Feng wore an inscrutable expression, his disdainful gaze sweeping over them: “Look at all of you who have never seen the world. Isn’t Xiao Lin’s strength just a little above the average new recruit? What’s the big deal? Hurry up and help Xiao Lin clear the battlefield!”
“No wonder the captain already understood everything!”
“So you kept us in the dark? Captain, that’s not fair! With such a powerful new recruit joining us, what do we have to fear? We could directly apply for a four-star mission!”
Shu Feng impatiently urged, “We’ll talk about this later. Quickly go and assist Xiao Lin!”
“Got it!”
“Xiao Lin, we’re coming over now!”
“Xiao, wait for me…”
Everyone rushed over.
Even Wei Yang, who had previously looked down on Xiao Yi, gritted her teeth and rushed over.
The camaraderie in a squad is often the strongest.
With a super new recruit like Xiao Yi, once he rises to prominence, it would be unstoppable.
Didn’t you see how the previous strongest new recruit has already become a legion commander?
At that moment.
Only Wei Du and Shu Feng were left on the mountain peak.
Shu Feng glanced at him, “Why aren’t you going over?”
“I’m waiting for you!”
Wei Du replied leisurely.
He and Shu Feng have known each other for over a thousand years, understanding each other so well that they could almost predict each other’s actions.
Shu Feng smiled wryly, “As expected, you saw through it. I’m just as stunned, my legs feel weak.”
Although he had long known that Xiao Yi’s strength was formidable, surpassing the cultivation realm he displayed.
However…
Shu Feng never expected Xiao Yi to be this powerful.
That was a group of over thirty Blissful Heaven Realm experts led by two Human Venerate Realm powerhouses. Even for a veteran team like theirs, it would take at least three such squads to have a chance of defeating them completely!
Yet.
Xiao Yi single-handedly, bare-fistedly, took down those thirty-plus Blissful Heaven Realm experts, remaining spotless and unharmed himself.
This is simply absurd!
“Old Shu, have you ever considered that this kid’s strength might just contend for the title of strongest new recruit of this generation?” Wei Du suddenly said.
Shu Feng was taken aback.
Usually, Wei Du calls him captain, only calling him Old Shu in private or when speaking sincerely.
Shu Feng nodded, saying, “I’ve thought about it… I don’t know what to do…”
His expression was painful.
It wasn’t that he didn’t know how to help Xiao Yi compete for the title of strongest new recruit, but because those four words carried too much meaning, he didn’t know if he should let Xiao Yi fight for it.
The strongest king of soldiers.
Requires passing through layers of selection, and on the battlefield of realms, this selection method is endless war.
Only those who survive the baptism of blood and fire, stepping over countless corpses, can be called the strongest new recruit!
Wei Du patted Shu Feng, who was full of worry, and encouraged, “Why think so much? After completing this mission, just tell Xiao Lin about the strongest new recruit matter, let him choose whether to fight or not!”
“You’re right, it’s his own matter, we can’t decide for him!” Shu Feng sighed.
“Captain, come over quickly…” Luo Xiang suddenly shouted from the front.
“Let’s go, take a look!”
Shu Feng called and rushed out first.
Wei Du smiled wryly, “I stayed back specifically for you, but you ran off yourself?”
Despite his words.
He chased after him nonetheless.
A moment later.
The two arrived around the altar.
In the altar, hundreds of alien infants were covered with strange symbols, these symbols were bright red like blood, exceptionally bizarre.
There seemed to be a mysterious energy connecting each symbol.
Each symbol appeared to be an individual entity, yet all together formed a whole, covering the bodies of the infants.
At this moment.
Even though all those Blissful Heaven Realm experts had been slain by Xiao Yi, and no more chants echoed, these symbols still wriggled slowly, as if they possessed a life of their own.
After these symbols attached to them, the infants became unusually quiet, not crying at all.
This was a very eerie scene.
Hundreds of infants, inside an ancient altar, covered in bizarre blood-red symbols, not crying nor fussing, just staring wide-eyed at the crowd before them.
That tranquil gaze was chilling to the bone.
As if devoid of any emotion.
These are infants!
They should be at their purest, yet now they seemed like emotionless puppets.
This is simply terrifying.
“What exactly is going on?” Shu Feng also frowned in thought.
Xiao Yi shrugged. He had noticed the strangeness of these symbols earlier, so he didn’t act right away, waiting by the altar instead.
Seeing a group of men looking at one another without acting.
The maternal instincts of Wei Yang flared up impatiently, “Can’t you just bring them out first? Leaving them there on the altar, don’t you feel any heartache?”
As she spoke.
Wei Yang walked toward the altar.
Xiao Yi said, “I advise you not to be impulsive. It’s best not to act rashly before understanding what these symbols are!”
Wei Yang glanced at him. Even if Xiao Yi had demonstrated great strength, gaining her newfound respect.
But it wasn’t enough for her to listen to him completely.
Wei Yang sneered, impatiently saying, “I’ve been dabbling in the realm battlefield for years. Haven’t I seen big storms? Do I need advice from a rookie?”
She was embarrassed over being proven wrong by Xiao Yi and felt incredibly frustrated.
So how could she heed Xiao Yi’s advice?
Stepping into the altar, Wei Yang picked up a porcelain doll-like adorable infant, holding it by the armpits, raising it high, proudly saying, “See? These are just ordinary children, what’s dangerous about them?”
As she spoke.
Wei Yang cast a provocative glance at Xiao Yi.
Yet…
In Xiao Yi’s eyes, she saw no anger, only deep sympathy and pity.
Glancing at the others, she saw the same emotions, except Wei Du’s eyes held more urgency and helplessness.
“What…happened to them?” Wei Yang asked puzzledly, and was soon met with the sight of the infant before her turning into a mist of blood…
The blood mist was unstoppable.
It moved quickly, in an instant, it entered Wei Yang’s seven orifices.
Wei Yang’s body shuddered, scarlet blood light oozed from her body, and on her skin, bizarre blood-red symbols formed.
Identical to the ones on the infants…
