Baden's Might

"With three drops of phoenix blood, I will help you kill everyone and capture the culprit who stole your child, and then you can deal with him/her."

Baden's lips curled up slightly. He knew that although the condition was harsh, the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle would probably agree.

"Lord Baden, do you know who stole my children?" Hearing this condition, the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle felt a pang of heartache, but the thought of its two eggs, which it had spent thousands of years nurturing, being stolen and smashed made its anger rise uncontrollably.

"Of course I know. She's an outsider, and a woman." As Baden said this, his gaze inadvertently swept over the giant python's corpse where Hake and Liliath were hiding.

That one glance sent a chill down their spines.

"That guy just glanced over here. Did we get spotted, or was it just a coincidence?" Hake asked, somewhat uncertainly.

"It wasn't that I was discovered; it's more like I was on his watchful eye from the very beginning. I suspect he saw the whole process of me stealing the bird eggs. If I'm not mistaken, he deliberately let me steal the eggs so he could use them as leverage to demand Phoenix Blood from the bird." Liliath frowned slightly, revealing Baden's true intentions.

"A true god of the Tenth Sequence is not someone we can handle. Judging from his words, he might very well make a move against you later." Hake's expression also turned somewhat grim.

"It's too late to escape now, let's just wait and see." Liliath looked at Baden with a slightly wary gaze.

"An outsider? And a woman at that?!" The Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle's gaze swept over the remaining crowd. Not finding any women, it asked with some confusion, "Why haven't I seen any women?"

"That woman has gone into hiding. So, are you going to agree to my terms?" Baden knew. This information he had given made the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle even more determined to catch the culprit.

The information Baden provided caused Walker to frown slightly.

"What he said doesn't seem to be a lie. There are no women in this prison. If a woman is hiding nearby, it's very likely she's here to rescue Young Master Hake..." Thinking this, he scanned the area with his soul power. His expression immediately changed drastically. "Young Master Hake... he really is gone!!!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, after some hesitation, the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle finally made a tough decision, "Lord Baden, I agree to your terms. Except for that little bitch, I want them all Death Ray! I also want to torture that little bitch every day, making her wish she were dead!"

"Then so be it!" Baden's lips curled into a smirk, and a fair and slender hand emerged from his sleeve, instantly transforming into a nearly thousand-meter-long crimson hand that crashed down from the void.

The five blood-red fingernails, each nearly a hundred meters long, tore five huge cracks in the void. Before the giant hand even landed, the resulting gale-force winds had already crushed the knees of the squad leaders, forcing them to their knees. The two Vice Captain also struggled to maintain their balance.

Walker swung his longsword repeatedly, creating tens of thousands of sword energies, but they failed to hinder the giant hand in the slightest.

The giant hand drew ever closer. At ten meters above the ground, the squad leaders' bodies began to crumble under the pressure. Visible cracks also appeared on the bodies of the two Vice Captain, their last vestiges of consciousness struggling to resist.

Walker's face turned crimson. This single attack had shown him that his opponent's strength was extremely close to that of a god. This time, he feared he was doomed. Not only that, but all his men would likely be wiped out.

When the giant hand descended to five meters, the bodies of all the squad leaders had already turned into energy particles and dissipated into the void, while the two Vice Captain had completely lost consciousness, their bodies also rapidly dissipating. Even Walker coughed up blood, his entire body visibly weakened.

The giant hand descended to three meters, and the bodies of the two Vice Captain completely disintegrated. At this point, Walker was the only guardian left in the entire prison.

Walker struggled to prop himself up on the ground with his sword, trying to keep from collapsing. His eyes were filled with despair. "Everyone's dead, Young Master Hake has escaped, there's no point in me living anymore..."

"Boom!"

A violent explosion rang out, and the blood-red giant hand finally slammed into the ground.

The ground, stretching for thousands of kilometers, cracked and crumbled, causing the entire planet to tremble.

After the attack, Baden quickly withdrew the blood-red giant hand, which returned to its original white appearance.

Amidst the rubble shattered by the palm strike, a figure lay covered in blood on the broken ground, his chest still rising and falling slightly, though almost no bone remained intact in his body. His eyes remained closed, clearly indicating he was unconscious.

"Not bad, he's still alive after taking that blow from me." Baden looked Walker up and down with interest.

"Although he's not dead yet, he's not far from it," the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle added from the side, but immediately raised the question that concerned him most, "Lord Baden, where exactly is the woman you mentioned who stole my child hiding?"

Upon hearing this, Baden shifted his gaze from Walker to the giant python's corpse where Liliath and Hake were hiding.

"Are you two going to keep hiding? I'll give you three seconds. You can decide whether to come out on your own or have me bring you out."

"Three, two..."

"No need to count, we'll come out ourselves." A clear female voice suddenly rang out, and then the giant python's mouth was pried open, and two people walked out.

"Not bad courage, I like it." Baden seemed to have become interested in Liliath again, scrutinizing her closely.

"You little slut, you're the one who stole my child, aren't you?!" The Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle roared the moment it saw Liliath.

"You've been watching me ever since I arrived on this planet, haven't you?" Liliath ignored the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle and looked at Baden instead.

"It seems you are not only courageous, but also very intelligent. I like you more and more." Baden did not deny Liliath's previous guess.

"So, you see me stealing this big bird's eggs, but you do nothing and just let me take them. You were just looking for an opportunity to ask this big bird for Phoenix Blood, weren't you?" Liliath's words were clearly intended to sow discord between the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle and Baden.

Upon hearing this, the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle couldn't help but look towards Baden.

"I know about all the things that happen on this planet every day, but I haven't interfered with any of them because it's the law of nature. Even if I could intervene in one or two things, I couldn't control hundreds or thousands, so I might as well let it develop freely. If you're going to say I'm plotting something because of this, I have nothing to say. However, I have to admit that your divisive tactic is quite effective." Baden answered this question without the slightest panic.

"You little bitch, I'll make you wish you were dead!" The Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle, not intending to listen to Liliath's continued nonsense, flapped its wings and swooped down towards the two. (To be continued~^~)
