Bu Fan's pupils constricted slightly, and he immediately nodded in Lin Chuan's direction.
By this point in the battle, the Imperial Family had used nearly all its trump cards, while the Akatsuki organization had gained the full support of quite a few sects. Although they were still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, they had stabilized the situation. Moreover, as more and more cultivators emerged from the spatial passages formed by Yomotsu Hirasaka, even their disadvantage was steadily being reversed.
It seems Lin Chuan doesn't intend to wait any longer, Bu Fan thought.
Elsewhere.
Mu Yunshu and Mu Chen joined forces and pressed toward Zhongchuan Xian.
Though neither of them was a match for Zhongchuan Xian individually, together they still forced him to struggle for breath. After all, they were two Tribulation Transcendence cultivators, and both were sword cultivators skilled in offense. Even Mu Chen, who specialized in alchemy, was far beyond ordinary cultivators in his use of swordsmanship.
"Your Majesty, I'll assist you!"
Seeing Zhongchuan Xian being forced back step by step, Bu Chen, head of the Bu Clan, rushed over with many others, intending to help Zhongchuan Xian stabilize the situation.
"Thank you, Clan Head Bu!"
Zhongchuan Xian said gratefully when he saw Bu Chen charge over with his people.
Although Bu Chen was only at the Mahayana stage and would not be of much use in a clash between Tribulation Transcendence cultivators, an extra pair of hands was still welcome. Besides, while the head of the Bu Clan had not reached the Tribulation Transcendence stage, as the master of the greatest merchant association in the cultivation world, Bu Chen possessed no shortage of treasures. With such powerful artifacts, he could at least restrain either Mu Chen or Mu Yunshu, greatly reducing the pressure on Zhongchuan Xian.
