Chapter 2874: Chapter 2869: One Minute

There’s no denying that Brother Sanxun’s visual effects are consistently impressive.

Even when viewed from the side, one can still feel the grandeur.

For Fu Qian, the situation at the shipwreck is clear as day.

Lord Sha Ming still hasn’t forgiven Yibu.

After the chase, there’s been little movement, which initially seemed like Yibu had managed to escape or hide.

But it turns out Sha Ming understands Yibu’s prideful nature very well.

Despite several setbacks before, Yibu still hasn’t given up the hope of a counterattack.

And his plan for retaliation is straightforward—find the White Tower Codex.

After suffering significant losses earlier, he not only sensed something amiss on the island but also identified the root of the issue.

However, Yibu quickly discovered Sha Ming’s secure measures—the Codex was hidden away.

Yet, this situation didn’t deter him; after patiently waiting, the source of the law eventually shone with an undeniable brilliance.

Though hastily approaching under such conditions was extremely dangerous, Yibu still took the risk for a shot.

It seemed successful as the White Tower Codex landed in his hands first.

But the grim reality followed suit—Sha Ming wasn’t in a rush to snatch it because he didn’t need to.

As they spoke, the Third Follower not only rose from the sea but even surrounded the entire Archipelago with a light grid centered on him.

Fu Qian had seen such grand scenes before, similar to what was inside Xi Yuan’s volcanic crater.

Those things could be considered the embodiment of rules, and seeing them quickly intensifying, one can’t help but suspect someone is tampering with the White Tower Codex.

In short, it’s clear that even with mysterious powers at play, Lord Sha Ming is reluctant to easily abandon his long-term efforts.

After ambushing Yibu, he’s prepared to unleash full firepower, aiming to format the entire Archipelago from within the shattered dream.

"Should we get out quickly?"

At this moment, Kikuchi’s spirit was bolstered, and he couldn’t help but urge.

Such a glorious scene, with Master holding the upper hand, sure seems like the revival of the Rebirth Club is today.

"Haha, you think we can just meet up with that guy under such circumstances? What makes you think he won’t deal with us like he did with Yibu?"

However, Lu Ming, having just resolved determinedly, suddenly doused cold water.

"Wait a bit longer—until they start fighting."

...

Indeed, Elder Lu has rich worldly experience.

The methods Sha Ming is using clearly don’t follow the club culture, how can one be sure he’ll care about the Limb Attachment business?

The means and power hidden so well until today speak volumes about his attitude.

If they truly went, they’d likely get dealt with.

From Fu Qian’s perspective, there’s an additional reason—they could offer.

Sha Ming was forced to return to his true form, yet why was he using Master’s voice earlier?

And knowing the whole island might hear, why speak?

He was chasing Yibu at the time; quietly approaching would have been proper.

Despite the colleagues in the shattered dream not knowing he had returned, Sha Ming likely had a grip.

The commotion at the time was probably to alert Lu Ming and the gang, with the intent to lure them out.

The situation on the laboratory side is unclear, and Sha Ming is wary of personal risk, so this could be the most convenient way to confirm the situation.

Of course, if truly lured out, it’s hard to say what the fate of the two elder masters would be.

In summary, Lu Ming’s choice is wise, opting not to return to the organization, but to wait for the other side to engage before taking action is best.

The final conclusion is to turtle down and continue demonstrating the patience of the older Rebirth Club members.

"Thank you very much, I’ll be quick."

Empathizing with the Rebirth Club’s crisis, Fu Qian also seemed to feel the heavy burden on his shoulders.

Without much courtesy, he accepted Patch’s generous offer of a minute.

Oh?

As expected, Patch showed no dissatisfaction, and his playful nature kicked in as he gazed around with interest, seemingly eager to see which side Fu Qian would strike next.

Pa!

Not letting Patch wait long, Fu Qian turned towards the shipwreck and snapped his fingers.

Boom—

Golden flames shot skyward, even outshining the Third Follower nearby and accompanied by Lord Sha Ming’s painful wails.

Crash—

Then came instantaneous thunder from the sky.

...

Impressive, Yibu reacted quickly.

In an instant, the sea surface is ablaze with lightning and fire, and Fu Qian was quite satisfied with this dazzling sight.

The golden flames naturally came from the Abandonment King.

What Fu Qian did was simple—he targeted Lord Sha Ming in the Dominion Isles and triggered the Calamity Eye on him.

Because the targeting time was short, the eye didn’t open wide.

Otherwise, the Fire of Madness would have a better visual effect.

But everyone in the worldly society must keep promises, having told Lord Patch he’ll do it quickly, how can he delay?

Moreover, Old Master Yibu’s reaction was undoubtedly quick. Despite nearly falling into peril from the ambush, he still seemed to be looking for a chance.

Though he doesn’t understand what’s happening to Sha Ming, he decisively joined the group.

However, merely a brief surge of Fire of Madness combined with the hastily joined demigod’s output is far from enough to directly strip a Second Phase of his resistance.

The scene shows Sha Ming enduring the burning Fire of Madness and began to react.

Before Yibu’s second lightning strike hit, a peculiar glow began to envelop him, neutralizing the attack into mere light effects.

Even the light grid on the Third Follower beside began rotating rapidly, searching like a spotlight for enemy positions.

Indeed.

Despite the ambush, instead of considering escape, Sha Ming didn’t bother with Yibu but immediately sought out the opponent hidden in the shadows.

This operation is undoubtedly spirited, and Fu Qian fully understands this spirit.

On one hand, the Archipelago has been managed for a long time, not allowing easy surrender, and Master Sha Ming is visibly confident in still controlling the situation.

On the other hand, he’s probably aware of who the assailant might be.

On the entire Archipelago, the only one who could rival him besides the thoroughly suppressed Yibu is likely the Academy Professor, who came from afar.

"Over here."

It’s futile to just admire with words; Fu Qian took practical actions at that moment, waved his hand toward the shipwreck, and even enthusiastically shouted.

Ugh—

As Sha Ming cautiously looked over, his body seemed to follow suit.
