Within the Blood Sea, the two Dao Fusion cultivators wore different expressions. Unlike Ziying's unease, Fei Lian remained far more composed. His task was simply to keep Ziying occupied; Pei Dan would handle the rest. On a battlefield like this, the destructive power a Dao Fusion cultivator could unleash without restraint was truly terrifying.
As long as Pei Dan could tear a gap in the enemy's defenses, their army could keep widening it and then forcefully assault Blue Water.
Though their original objective had not been achieved, the Insect and Blood Races had made such a tremendous move this time that they naturally could not return empty-handed. Occupying Blue Water would at least make up for it somewhat.
In the midst of their clash, the Stone Worm that had been lying prone on Fei Lian's shoulder suddenly opened its single eye, and a ripple of divine sense surged forth.
"What?" Fei Lian's expression changed drastically, for the Insect Mother had conveyed news he simply could not believe.
Pei Dan had died in battle!
That instant of distraction made Ziying's eyes light up. She immediately launched a fierce assault, battering Fei Lian until he was in a sorry state.
"Pei Dan really died?" Fei Lian hastily stabilized the situation and used the churning Blood Sea to conceal himself before finding the chance to ask.
"He died. Beheaded!"
Fei Lian was horrified. "Did the Human Race deploy a Dao Fusion cultivator here?" That made no sense. Even if they had, they could not have arrived so quickly!
"No. He died at the hands of that Human Race cultivator we were looking for. He really was hiding in Blue Water."
"Insect Mother, are you joking? Even if that Human Race cultivator has a Bifu, how could he possibly be stronger than Pei Dan?"
