Inside the office, Li Xuanyu suddenly looked up at the ceiling above her head.
Just a moment ago, she felt as if someone was watching her from above.
There was nothing on the ceiling.
However, Li Xuanyu’s expression became serious. As a powerful Martial Cultivator, she trusted her instincts and a woman’s unique sixth sense.
She was being secretly watched.
She knew that a Divine Travel Realm expert had the special ability to release Divine Thought to probe the reality from a distance.
However, the feeling just now didn’t seem like a Divine Thought probe; it felt more like someone was truly scrutinizing her with their gaze.
Especially that gaze seemed to penetrate through her clothing and see through her flesh.
She quietly pressed the alarm switch.
This alarm was custom-made to send alerts immediately to the smartphones of everyone connected to the network.
After Li Xuanyu sent out the alarm, all the employees inside the building became alert.
Armed with special weapons bought at high prices from the Divine Continent, the guard team of the Li Family’s Financial Group and the elite of the Korean Self-defense Army sprang into action.
At the same time, the highest command post of the Korean Self-defense Army on the Qingwa Department’s side received the information, and drones were secretly activated to implement precise strikes once the enemy’s location was detected.
At this moment, Li Xuanyu had activated all the defenses Korea could muster, and everyone entered a state of combat readiness.
All was set, just waiting for the enemy to appear.
But even with all these preparations, Li Xuanyu still didn’t feel much sense of security.
She knew that against top-tier cultivators like those, modern hot weapons needed precise tracking and locking to implement large-scale bombardments; otherwise, it was hard to destroy them.
And those powerful enemies could suddenly attack from the shadows, delivering fatal blows to her and the others at any time.
"Damn it, have the experts from the Ji Family and Zhang Family arrived yet?" Li Xuanyu worried silently.
On the rooftop sky platform.
The Qianhe Golem activated the Host God Heavenly Eye Divine Power, and his expression suddenly changed after seeing through the situation below.
"Damn it, they seem to have sensed something in advance and have actually completed their defensive deployment," the Qianhe Golem said angrily.
Iga Haru sneered in response, "A bunch of mere mortals, so what if they deploy defenses in advance? Qianhe, where is she located?"
"On the third floor below, in a highly secure room," the Qianhe Golem immediately replied.
"Go, make it quick, otherwise it’ll be troublesome if modern weapons lock onto us," said Iga Haru.
With that, his feet abruptly sank.
The rooftop ground suddenly caved in with a loud crash.
Only to see Iga Haru’s body, like a bunker buster, rapidly break through three floors and land directly in the office where Li Xuanyu was located.
When she heard the commotion from above, Li Xuanyu was already prepared for an ambush.
The moment the office’s ceiling, capable of withstanding armor-piercing rounds, was pierced through, Li Xuanyu didn’t hesitate and fired the energy cannon wildly in that direction.
Three consecutive shots.
Iga Haru seemed able to sense the crisis ahead of time, his eyes narrowed as he shouted: "Domain!"
In the void, the falling debris instantly coalesced, blending with an invisible and powerful Gang Qi to form a shield-like protective barrier.
The energy cannon’s blasts shattered the protective shield instantly.
Yet, before the shockwave could penetrate and affect Iga Haru, the shield immediately reformed.
With just a thought from Iga Haru, an absolute safe distance within three meters in front of him could be formed.
This was his inherited domain skill.
Compared to martial artists and cultivators who trained diligently from a young age, the Host God inheritance was like acquiring things effortlessly.
Even more terrifying, once the Host God ability was fully mastered, the special skills it bestowed were enough to rival the strongest cultivators in the world.
Even stronger perhaps.
That’s why, since ancient times, the seven Host God inheritances of the Penglai Realm have been the most mysterious and crucial.
The Host God inheritance is key for Japan, a country with a small population, to hold its ground against Heaven and the Hidden Sect, forming a tripartite balance among Small Worlds.
After firing the energy cannon continuously, Li Xuanyu initially thought she might destroy a top-level expert; even if she couldn’t kill them, she hoped to severely injure or drive them away.
Unexpectedly, the opponent seemed like a divine being, possessing such formidable defensive capabilities, and the energy cannon seemed to have no effect on him.
Without any hesitation, she turned and ran.
The enemy was too strong!
A cold voice descended from above.
Upon hearing this voice, Li Xuanyu was taken aback, and then her heart pounded wildly.
She only saw a figure flash in next to the Penglai Realm expert from before. Who else could it be but Sun Xingyu?
Though his tone hadn’t changed at all, his voice had become much deeper than before, seeming to carry a sense of age.
Even though she recognized Sun Xingyu, Li Xuanyu kept running in a panic.
Suddenly, she was horrified to find she couldn’t move.
An invisible force swept in from all directions, tightly enveloping her, isolating her from the surrounding space. No matter how hard she struggled, it was all futile.
How could this happen?
Li Xuanyu was filled with horror and despair.
Sun Xingyu’s face was calm, his eyes seemingly indifferent to all life as he gazed at Li Xuanyu’s body, saying, "I told you, you can’t escape!"
As he spoke, he extended a hand, grasping at Li Xuanyu from afar.
With this move, Li Xuanyu’s body was lifted into the air by an invisible force, pulled towards Sun Xingyu.
Iga Haru glanced at Sun Xingyu, a complex expression flashing in his eyes before he looked at Li Xuanyu and said indifferently, "What’s the point of speaking to her, just kill her."
Saying this, he slashed through the air at Li Xuanyu with a hand blade.
A glint of extraordinary light flashed in Sun Xingyu’s eyes as he was about to act, but suddenly he sensed something.
A loud noise erupted from the side.
A crack appeared suddenly in the wall beside Li Xuanyu.
An incredibly powerful Sword Qi shattered the wall as it traversed towards them.
The Sword Energy Iga Haru had slashed through the air instantly shattered.
Not only that, but the invisible bond Sun Xingyu had over Li Xuanyu also seemed to be severed by this Sword Qi. Li Xuanyu’s body suddenly regained freedom, and with a muffled grunt, she quickly dashed forward.
Iga Haru and Sun Xingyu’s expressions became serious, their gazes simultaneously focusing on the wall pierced by the Sword Qi.
The next instant, their pupils contracted as yet another powerful Sword Qi cleaved through the air towards them. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novelꜰire.net
