Chapter 469: 469
Xue Wei's strength had skyrocketed because he was using the half-transformation into the Azure Dragon shape, and vitality was flowing through his veins, removing every small ounce of exhaustion .
The vitality came from the Wood Elemental Qi, and the sheer strength made it possible for him to gain the upper hand against his opponents .
The experts that were flocking around him were Ordinary and Earth Saints .
Xue Wei had many things he wanted to test out in the big battle, but he was not sure about how much he would have time for . He was also continually keeping an eye on the battlefield's overall situation, and he soon found that the King and Emperor ranked experts were very even in the battle . If Lei Jingshen had not advanced to an Emperor, the Demon Phoenix Continent would have faced a staggering defeat .
On the ground, where the Saints and Knights were facing off against one another, the battle was chaotic . The Diviners were the main focus of the Demon Phoenix Army, and they were not overly strong, so one after another, they were picked off cleanly .
While the Demon Phoenix Continent's army was working as one entity, the Xiyang Empire's soldiers were much more troubled .
Some of them were guarding the Vermilion Birds within their cages, some went against Lin Xiao, and others were just bathing in bloodlust, slaughtering anything that came close .
Xue Wei had infiltrated the enemy lines; he was deep into the enemy army's ground, in an attempt at reaching the Vermilion Bird Clan's cage . He had no backup, but he was not worried . If he wanted to flee, no one would be able to stop him . He could transform into both an azure dragon and a vermilion bird, making escaping extremely easy .
As long as the expert was unable to kill him in one hit, then Xue Wei would be able to escape .
Because of this, he dared to venture so deep behind enemy lines, but he dared not bring his companions with him .
Just as he was fighting against a group of experts, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and he swiftly evaded a sword attack that landed where he had stood just a moment before .
Xue Wei slowly turned around as he tossed a corpse away . In front of him was the first person to make him feel pressured, but instead of backing away, the battle intent in Xue Wei soared .
This was precisely what he had been looking for, and an almost manic smile spread on his face .
The man who had attacked frowned . He had not expected that Xue Wei had the ability to dodge his attack, and he became more serious .
Seeing his serious expression, Xue Wei was full of excitement . Although he liked to rip apart his opponents, nothing was better than a fulfilling battle where his life was on the line . A battle where he could get familiar with his own limits and transcend them!
The two people were very contrasting . Xue Wei was standing and resembled a demon . His clothes were red, but even so, one could easily see that they were soaked in blood . His arms were covered in azure scales with claws instead of fingers .
His eyes were full of madness, the smile on his face was eerie, and his hair was whipping in the wind, giving him a terrifying appearance . A single drop of blood was running down his cheek .
The other man, the one who had attacked, was wearing spotless white clothes . He was hovering above the air so that his boots would not get soaked in the bloody mud that the ground had turned into .
He was carrying a long and thin sword in his hands, and his face displayed no emotions whatsoever .
One was like a demon that had crawled up from hell, the other was like a clean deity descending from heaven, and no one dared to approach them .
Xue Wei snickered when he saw how the man was hovering in the air . What a waste of Qi! He must have some sort of cleaning habit .
The man did not have a cleaning habit, but he was not used to these situations . He was a prince of the Xiyang Continent, and he was used to being a genius amongst geniuses . A heavenly son, a Saint of unimaginable talent .
But he was older than Xue Wei, and while it was a difference of merely a few years, these years were enough to make him fear that if he left Xue Wei alive, then he would no longer be the only peerless genius .
To a person who was used to being revered, there was nothing more frightening than losing his fame and admiring gazes .
He had a group of bodyguards with him, four Heavenly Saints, and if they attacked together, then Xue Wei would be in a tight spot, but the prince was rather arrogant in nature .
He was confident that he would be able to deal with Xue Wei, and that he did not need the help of his bodyguards, so he ordered them not to interfere .
Looking at the bodyguards, Xue Wei narrowed his eyes . He could escape, but when he had finally found a real opponent, did he really want to flee?
He did not!
If he could not handle the bodyguards later, he could always escape then; letting go of this chance was not something he would do, not to mention that he was not the kind of person who backed down in the face of danger .
The chilling smile on his lips grew in size, and he could not help but laugh maniacally .
Azure Light Finger!
