1803 Surrounded (1/2)
”It can't be a coincidence! Xuanxin must be in Northern Wilderness too! She must be with the rest of them!” Chen Xiaobei said. ”That means I'm not stuck between choices. I just need to return to Northern Wilderness and solve both problems at once! Sister Bai's phone call must have been the work of the Good Luck Charm!”
Bai Linsu and Liu Xuanxin were like chalk and cheese. They were never known to get along which was why Chen Xiaobei never thought of asking Bai Linsu about Liu Xuanxin.
Bai Linsu's call had provided Chen Xiaobei with very important information which allowed him to come up with a theory!
In fact, if Bai Linsu had not heard about Wei Zhonglie's activity, she would not have contacted Chen Xiaobei and Chen Xiaobei would have been completely clueless about the whole situation thereby missing the chance to save his people!
There must have been a reason behind this call – and it was in direct relation with the growth of Chen Xiaobei's Qi Shu.
All of Chen Xiaobei problems and dilemma was solved just like that.
Chen Xiaobei took out his Returning Bracelet. The point of origin was marked in the Secret Space. With this, he could make his way his to Northern Wilderness Starfield from there.
...
On Silver Plume planet, in the Northern Wilderness Starfield
In the sky above the monstrosity of a waterfall in Silver Plume forest hovered an equally monstrous and technologically advanced mothership.
The spacecraft carried an army of battle spacecraft within its bowels and also armies of soldiers armed to the teeth.
Already, thousands of soldiers had alighted and were surrounding the waterfall.
Among them were two God-Ascension demigods who were evidently the leaders of the group.
They were attempting to close in on the falls but were obstructed by the formation drawn up by a dozen people guarding it.
”Hang on, everyone! I managed to get hold of Xiaobei. He'll be here to save us soon…” One of them said.
The person who had spoken was none other than Liu Xuanxin.
With her gorgeous face unmasked and her white shirt flapping in the wind, one might have mistaken her an immortal; a goddess!
This gorgeous woman was standing on the frontlines of the formation. Her mesmerizing looks alone was enough to distract the enemies.
”That's impossible… That mothership up there is blocking the cell signals. I've tried so many times to reach Chen Xiaobei!” said a tall man with cutting a bold figure. It was Xiangyu.
”Yeah… Me too. I can't make any calls either…” voiced an older gentleman, who was actually Six-Eared Macaque after a transfiguration.
Liu Xuanxin's forehead creased. ”You have to trust me! I really did get through to him!”
The other person, the Overlord of Northern Wilderness who was also Chen Xiaobei's loyal hound sighed, ”There's no point… We can't hold on any longer! Even if you did get to him, Bro Bei won't be able to get here in time…”
”Yeah… We're at our limits…” Chen Xiaobei's Tai Yitan said through clenched teeth. ”It's really unfortunate that the four Demonic Beasts can't leave the Secret Space. We could have held on a little bit longer…”
Apart from the four God-Ascension demigods who were Liu Xuanxin, Xiang Yu, Six-Eared Macaque, and the Overlord, a dozen Bei Xuan faction's strongest disciples were also there.
They were all propagating Ethereal Forces to thwart the enemy's attack.
This combat formation was the Northern Wilderness Overlord's secret Pinnacle-phase Spiritual Item-grade formation. Its defensive powers were very strong.
But!
The combat power of the enemy's leaders, like the Overlord's, were in the millions. They could easily crush Liu Xuanxin, Xiang Yu and Six-Eared Macaque.
Not making things any better was the enemy's soldiers, where all of them were at the later-phase of Celestial Cultivation. They could overwhelm nearly all of Bei Xuan faction's disciples.
Even with the combat formation, it was proving difficult for Bei Xuan to defend themselves.
They were at the point of exhaustion, and the formation could break at any moment.
Some of the other Bei Xuan demigods were unable to join them.
