Slaying the Sky Wolf

Seeing the second move crushing down, the Sky Wolf could no longer care about anything else. He hurled the divine hammer in his hand toward the flaming beast shadow, while he himself turned and fled toward the rear without looking back. If he didn't run now, it would be too late. He secretly regretted his actions, wondering why his brain had suddenly cramped, leading him to stop and block this human; he should have just run far away from the start.

"Ambushed by a powerful human, requesting support, requesting support!" The Sky Wolf ignored his status as a member of the Demon Race royal family and called for help from other powerful individuals of his faction within the virtual space.

Unfortunately, this was the Ice Sand Snow Plain, where Marquis-level powerhouses rarely arrived. If a peak Immortal Army Lord of the Sky Wolf Race could be driven into such a sorry state, didn't that imply the opponent was likely a Marquis-level powerhouse?

In the Ice Sand Snow Plain, even a peak Immortal Army Lord like the Sky Wolf was a rare sight, so where could he possibly find a Marquis-level powerhouse to save him?

Skolls the Sky Wolf was destined to fall here today!

"Heh, what a cowardly Sky Wolf. But did you really think you could escape from my grasp?" Qin Cang mocked. He never gave the prey he had targeted a chance to escape; it hadn't happened before, it wouldn't happen now, and it certainly wouldn't happen in the future.

"Bloom, Star-Eating!"

Finally, Qin Cang decided to use the Star-Eating Grass. In this situation, if he wanted to finish off the Sky Wolf, the Star-Eating Grass was the simplest method. If other Demon Race powerhouses were to arrive, things would turn dire.

A small golden blade of grass appeared in Qin Cang's palm. It looked insignificant, but at Qin Cang's command, its size rapidly surged.

In an instant, it split into thousands of vines, each instantly growing to a length of 100,000 kilometers. Yet it didn't stop there; the vines continued to grow until they reached a million kilometers in length.

Under Qin Cang's control, the golden vines surged toward the Sky Wolf. Amidst the Sky Wolf's terrified gaze, the golden vines instantly wrapped tightly around his body, with one barb after another piercing into his divine body, continuously eroding it.

Even more terrifying was that even the edges of the golden grass blades were incredibly sharp; every time they touched the Sky Wolf, they would erode a portion of his divine body.

Under these golden vines, the Sky Wolf had no means of resistance, only able to watch as his divine body was rapidly eroded by this terrifying plant life, completely helpless.

How was this any different from watching one's own flesh being sliced away piece by piece?

"Damn human, I never expected you to have such a terrifying Star-Eating Grass protecting you. I, Skolls, have fallen today, but don't think you'll have it easy. With such a terrifying Star-Eating Grass, your status in the Human Race must be very high; perhaps you are one of those so-called 'Your Highnesses'."

"I have already broadcasted your coordinates. What awaits you is the endless pursuit of my Demon Race's powerhouses. I'll be waiting for you, hahaha..." Skolls laughed wildly, knowing he couldn't escape today, but being able to disgust Qin Cang was enough.

On the Outer-Region Battlefield, there were plenty of powerhouses willing to hunt down such a high-profile World Lord for the sake of treasures. They wouldn't follow any rules; bullying the weak with the strong or ganging up on someone was just standard operating procedure.

"Too much chatter. Star-Eating, no need to hold back." Qin Cang knew he couldn't drag this out any longer.

If he delayed further, it wasn't just a possibility that Demon Race powerhouses would arrive—it was a certainty. There might even be more than one. If he and his group were surrounded, he wouldn't be afraid for himself, but Kailun and the others would die here.

"Yes, Master."

Star-Eating obeyed Qin Cang's command, and the thousand vines plunged directly into the Sky Wolf's Immortal divine body. In less than a second, the Sky Wolf's divine body vanished completely.

The Star-Eating Grass possessed the power to Devour; even in its infancy, it grew by consuming planets. A Thousand-Vine Star-Eating Grass that had reached the peak of the King level would have no pressure at all when devouring the divine body of an Immortal Army Lord.

After putting away the World Ring left behind by the Sky Wolf, Qin Cang returned to his teammates. As for Kailun and the others, they had already finished saving the surviving World Lords, which had required no effort at all.

"This... Lord, I am Delis, commander of the army with serial number 95277259. Thank you for your life-saving grace." The human Immortal who had sent the distress signal expressed his gratitude. He had thought he was surely going to perish here, but he never expected to encounter such a terrifying powerhouse. His life was truly blessed to have survived.

"My name is Cao Benqi. Let's get on the ship first," Qin Cang urged.

"Ah, this, alright." Delis didn't know why this terrifying Lord was so insistent, but he had no choice but to comply.

On the spaceship, Delis, Kailun, and Qin Cang went into a private lounge. As for Lan Ying and the others, they stayed in a different lounge, all of them consciously leaving the space to the three strongest individuals.

"Cao Benqi, what exactly happened to make you so flustered?" Kailun couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. In the past, when facing enemies, Qin Cang had always been calm and composed. What was going on today that made him so eager to leave?

Qin Cang: It's all for you idiots!

"That Sky Wolf broadcasted the coordinates of this location. A large number of Demon Race powerhouses will arrive soon. To be safe, it's better if we leave this place," Qin Cang explained.

If it were just himself, he wouldn't fear the Demon Race's targeting at all, but now he had many companions here.

Although he wasn't afraid of Demon Race powerhouses, Kailun and the others were different. If even one Marquis-level Demon powerhouse arrived, he could slowly maneuver around them, but Kailun and the others would suffer; they might not even be able to withstand the mere shockwaves of the battle.

Having spent a hundred years together, Qin Cang held Kailun in high regard. Although the man was a bit cowardly, who wasn't afraid of death?

As long as it allowed him and his teammates to gain benefits, that was enough.

Moreover, during these hundred years, Qin Cang admitted one thing: when it came to cultivation and fighting, he was better than Kailun, but if it came to being a leader and governing a universe country, he was certainly not as good as Kailun.

There was no helping it; everyone had their own strengths, and one couldn't expect everyone to be omnipotent.

The reason the Human Race chose the Chaos City Lord as the main spokesperson for internal and external affairs was primarily because he was truly fair, considered the interests of the masses, and could account for all aspects of interest when acting.

"Then we should leave immediately. By the way, have you thought about where to go?" Kailun asked. After witnessing that great battle, he had already made Qin Cang his backbone and subconsciously placed himself in a supporting role.

"Captain, I suggest we return to the Barracks Base to recuperate. After a hundred years of combat, it's time to go back and rest for a few days," Qin Cang suggested.

He himself didn't really care, but this time, he had earned enough money to buy the Fire God Source Crystal. Returning to the Barracks Base to rest and then heading to the location of the Machine Race's hidden treasure was the best choice for now.

"You're right. We've been out fighting for a hundred years; it's time to go back and rest." Kailun knew what Qin Cang was thinking but didn't voice it. The fewer people who knew about the treasure, the better. Besides, Delis was an outsider, and there was no need to tell him.

Just as Qin Cang and Kailun were talking, Delis finally couldn't help but speak up, "Two Lords, although you didn't say it explicitly, I know the rules."

"This time, it was my fault for not announcing the Sky Wolf's strength beforehand, which nearly led you into a dangerous situation. Fortunately, Brother Cao Benqi turned the tide."

"Rest assured, I know what to say later. A Marquis-level powerhouse just happened to be nearby; I will never expose Brother Cao Benqi's identity."

"As for the life-saving grace, my strength is not great, and I cannot produce many Hunyuan Units, but I will never renege on my debt. I know that seeking rescue from powerhouses of the same faction requires a price."

"I can offer 500,000 Hunyuan Units as a reward. I wonder what you two think? This is almost all the cash I have on hand. If it's not enough, I will sell my spaceship; I will definitely make up the difference!"
