(Thanks to Brother 98 for the 1000 reward) (Thanks to fellow reader 151007231938130 for the 500 reward, 500X2, mehahaha *hic*! Brothers, I bow to you, updates will be a bit earlier in the coming period.)

"Hahahaha, you trash, just wait until I finish transforming my body, to some extent I should even thank that Kexiao today." As Sky Shadow made his high-speed escape, he couldn't stop laughing madly; he had thought he'd die there today, but fortunately, there's always a way out, however, he hadn't expected Kexiao to be so strong. Even in a normal state, his chances of defeating him were slim, which only intensified Sky Shadow's determination to transform his body.

At this moment, the scenery in Sky Shadow's eyes was rapidly changing into reverse, disappearing as his speed reached its limit. He believed that once he shook off Kexiao and avoided contact with him, no one on this planet would be his match.

While thinking this, Sky Shadow's high-speed movement suddenly paused as he spotted someone.

Blade Warrior also saw Sky Shadow at the same time, "Eh eh eh, why is it you, haven't you been acting with everyone else?"

Sky Shadow landed silently, saying, "Some complications arose mid-way; Angelina and I got into a tough battle."

"No, no way, who else could push you to such a desperate fight?"

"Jade Clear Sect."

Blade Warrior's eyes lit up with a mix of shock and joy. They had been searching for Mengdie but didn't know where to begin. Clearly, risking danger to come here was for the sake of the Space Crystal, and since Mengdie likely possessed such a thing, there was no reason not to go there.

Just, unknown was why the Jade Clear Sect would battle Sky Shadow, "Could it be that you're fighting over resources?"

"Partly, I don't want to stay here."

Having said that, Sky Shadow prepared to dash off when Blade Warrior called out to him again, "Please, wait a moment, I want to know their exact location?"

"Southwest direction, why, are you going?"

"Yeah."

"Hmph, if you want to die, no one will stop you." Sky Shadow said, then flew away without looking back, watching as Blade Warrior gradually faded into the distance. Then, in mid-flight, he suddenly paused, "This idiot, he isn't really thinking of courting death, is he?"

Even he had no chance against so many from the Jade Clear Sect, let alone Blade Warrior. The allegiance of Kexiao was unclear; in such a situation, if Blade Warrior were to die, the loss of her technological support would inevitably mean his body transformation wouldn't be perfect. While thinking rapidly, Sky Shadow turned in the air and followed after her.

On the other side of the battlefield, the fight between Jade Clear Sect and Kexiao was intense. With one strike, Kexiao had used his full strength. He was clear about the enemy's strengths and weaknesses. Aside from this butterfly Protector, the other two were also threats, which is why he targeted Mingfei first, and the strike was effective.

Just as he anticipated, the strike hit Mengdie squarely, yet, contrary to expectations, no explosion of blood and flesh occurred. With a flash before his eyes, Kexiao realized his attack hadn't hit the real body but a clone of Mengdie, a flying immortal projection.

Boom...

As Kexiao struck Mengdie's delicate body, his own was blown away by the attack, which came from Mengdie herself, appearing behind him.

Kexiao had calculated the start and the outcome, but he had not foreseen this woman's astonishing speed, and his unfamiliarity with the hidden faction's techniques led him to be outmatched in this brief encounter, replaced now by countless vines and thorns growing from the ground, binding him tightly, unable to move.

"Spiny Flower Bondage."

Zhan Yu softly murmured these words... Spiny Flower Bondage was the highest binding spell of the Five Elements Technique, and escaping from it was hard for anyone; although the binding power was strong, the drawback was that the caster couldn't move either. It was unexpected that even Mengdie was forced to use this move.

Indeed, Protector Jin's serious injury came from a one-on-one fight with Sky Shadow, while Mingfei suffered grievously because of Kexiao's swift actions caught her off guard. The other elders' deaths and injuries were due solely to the vast gap in strength. However, with his and Mengdie's abilities, it was possible to tangle with this man, but now with Mengdie resorting to such a technique, it indicated she too lacked confidence against him.

The battle looked like 1V6, but in reality, the elders' strength was formidable; the problem was the gap between Kexiao and the elders was too great, so imposing it almost led to a one-sided crushing. Even if the elders joined forces, their defeat was just a matter of time.

This was like the law of the jungle; a wolf could never defeat a tiger, no matter what. Even a wolf pack had to yield when facing a tiger. The elders' power was undoubtedly deterrent to herbivores, but against a strong opponent like Kexiao, the wolf pack only served to delay, at best inflicting a wound on the tiger but never standing a chance to win.

Therefore, Protector Jin's alpha wolf status was crucial. To defeat Kexiao, the elders could at most play only a supporting role; the real combatants would be only him and Mengdie. The current situation also showed, aside from these two, the rest of the elders couldn't last many rounds against Kexiao.
