"Please report to the Inspector immediately!"
At that moment, the battlefield of six Yang Transformation masters was also deathly silent!
The entire battle felt like it lasted a long time, but in reality, it lasted only a few short seconds.
It was only when the five masters appeared collectively that they discovered for the first time that so many experts had been hidden beside them!
But by then, they were no longer able to think.
Because at that critical moment, if they didn't act on instinct, any hesitation would have resulted in "Fang Ze" being killed on the spot!
So, even though they felt something was off, they could only follow their respective plans and take action.
For example, Lady Jin, who had promised Bai Zhi, and Black Bull, who had been assigned to protect Fang Ze, stepped in front of Fang Ze immediately to shield him from the attack.
For example, the old crone responsible for the counterattack, and Rejuvenation Society's "Bandage Woman," who had the idea of fighting one to save another, also made their move against the beggar right away.
But the problem arose here.
It was fine for them to do their own thing.
But when all their actions came together, the situation spun out of control.
The beggar, who thought he was just killing a high-level Awakener and wouldn't encounter any surprises, had let his guard down, and his attack wasn't full force.
As a result, his Life-bound Flying Sword was shattered by two people, and under the shock, he was injured. Then his Body-protecting Treasure was broken, leading to another serious injury.
Finally, completely defenseless and already wounded, he unsuspectingly received a full-force palm strike from a fellow high-level master.
And so... he was killed on the spot!
This turn of events was unexpected even to the Yang Transformation masters.
It was one thing for a Yang Transformation master to strike; it was another for one to die.
This thought nearly popped into the heads of all the present Yang Transformation masters at the same time!
Although confused about what had led to this situation, these experts almost simultaneously came to the same conclusion!
We need to escape first!
Otherwise, we'll really die!
Luckily, they had already made preparations for a retreat.
So... after exchanging deep looks with each other, and giving Fang Ze a deep glance, they immediately started to bug out.
Bandage Woman was the first to leave!
Once her bandages unraveled, she vanished on the spot, leaving behind only scrolls of bandages marked with secret texts!
Following that, the beautiful young woman, Hei Yu, grabbed the crone, blinked to where Black Bull and Fang Ze's Clone were, and then she suddenly spread a huge, black wing, enveloping the three!
In a moment, four feathers fell to the ground, and three people plus a clone vanished into thin air!
The scene was left with only Lady Jin, dressed in noble attire with a gloomy face that seemed like it could drip ink, and Fang Ze's real body still hiding in the shadows.
Fang Ze was also completely dumbfounded at this moment.
Even with his clever mind, he couldn't figure out what had happened.
It felt like... "whoosh," "smack," "tatatata," "crackcrackcrack," and then... the beggar who wanted to kill him was dead?
Who were those who seemed very powerful? What were they after?
Fang Ze blinked, shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts.
Then he reanalyzed the previous scene and thought that, if he wasn't mistaken, there were at least five Yang Transformation level masters at the scene, and one who seemed to be at the same level but only fled without fighting.
By that count, there could be six Yang Transformation masters.
Are Yang Transformation masters now as common as cabbages?
And who were they exactly? What was their purpose?
Fang Ze recalled the recent events — it seemed the five new arrivals were all protecting him?
So... were they on his side?
Fang Ze felt his mind was in complete disarray, and for the moment, he couldn't deduce any clues.
Just then, suddenly, multicolored light appeared before him. Subconsciously, he felt it was best to deactivate his hidden powers now.
Was this a hint from the [Black Panther] ability?
Telling him... a great opportunity lay hidden before his eyes!
While thinking this, Fang Ze deactivated his Dark King ability.
As his power was deactivated, he immediately felt as if his body was caught in a huge vortex of Laws.
Golden rain poured down on him.
Without him even moving, his body seemed to be absorbing the overflowing Power of Laws all by itself!
Fang Ze had an idea, and he called on the loan sharks, trying to advance to the Blood Exchange realm!
And perhaps it was because the Power of Laws around him was so concentrated, [Credit World] could save a lot of resources. This time, the price for [High-interest Loan] was only 500,000 Lini!
And for advancing to each small realm within the Blood Exchange realm, it only required 200,000 Lini!
The prices were ridiculously low!
Hence, Fang Ze chose to advance without hesitation!
In a moment, he felt the Power of Laws around him and the golden rainwater crazily rushing towards him, and his blood began to undergo a continuous wash, transforming...
While Fang Ze was enhancing himself with the pure Power of Laws left by the death of the beggar, Lady Jin, still standing in place, subtly lifted her head.
As she looked up, the dim skies of Emerald City slowly split apart to both sides.
Through the parted skies, a colossal Sky Mother Ship, vast enough to eclipse half of Emerald City, slowly emerged from the crack in space.
Its shadow enveloped the entire Emerald City.
Its might dispelled the Power of Laws released by the death of the beggar.
The golden rain slowly faded away.
Hundreds of small boats flew down from the Sky Mother Ship like dumplings heading towards Emerald City.
Rows of federal Defense Teams landed and quickly took control of Emerald City's key departments, major traffic routes...
Shortly afterwards, a figure slowly appeared beside Lady Jin...
