Chapter 4004: Not Five

Zonhime was right to be on guard. Even though they managed to defend a few times, including when Roan first joined, the serious attacks were the ones before Roan and Celis joined. After they joined Qufis, they stopped.

However, things were different now.

"Tch..." Zonhime looked outside, seeing themselves surrounded again, just like that day after Roan’s group arrived. However, there were definitely more higher-level experts. "It’s those guys from Plovel again."

Roney also watched from inside the formation. "Plovel? Ha! It’s not only them. Look at those over there."

Zonhime checked with her Divine Sense. "Zadgjor! Are they allying with Plovel to take us down?"

While those two discussed, Rean and the others weren’t that much concerned.

"Seems like quite a big number outside," Rean commented with a smile.

Roan had his cold expression, annoyed that they were bothering him. "The idiots from Plovel probably got too scared that Celis and I turned the tables last time. They are likely thinking it is better to get rid of us before we cause more trouble, especially after the Future Realm closes."

Yet, no one was angrier than Celis. "They dare to stop my cultivation session! I’m absolutely sucking all their energies and life force until not even bones remain! Fuckers!"

"Celis, you can’t use your World Swallowing Cedar Skills," Rean warned him. "Use Roan’s poison like the last time. Now that we are back to the Peak Stage of the Space-Time Realm, it should be a lot easier to keep our strength hidden while using some side-skills."

Kentucky was quite happy, though. "Oh, come on! We have been doing pretty much nothing else other than cultivating. We can finally have some fun today, so why not enjoy?"

"Hmph!" Celis was still angry. "Fine, no personal abilities. But I’m still making them suffer, and I will enjoy it."

"You will hear no complaint from me there," Foliana commented.

Tanxan just accepted that he had to help, too. "The faster it ends, the better for me."

Qufis still had only two Divinity Realm Experts, both in the Initial Stage. After a few breakthroughs and the return of some of the deserters, they now had 17 Space-Time Realm Experts instead of 10.

The two groups outside, however, had five Divinity Realm Experts, and Zonhime recognized them. Above all, she recognized a guy called Grofou. "He is a new Divinity Realm expert," she said to Roney and everyone inside their formations. "I remember he was only a Space-Time Realm Peak Stage, and he attacked us before."

He did indeed. In fact, he attacked back when Roan, Celis, and Tanxan helped defend. Well, everyone there seemed to recognize him, too.

"Do you remember him?" Rean asked Roan.

Roan narrowed his eyes for a moment. "Was I supposed to? ...Or so I wanted to say, but I would never forget an enemy, even if he were trash. He was indeed here last time. Still trash."

But then, Roan glanced at Rean, who understood what he wanted. The two of them kept watching the development after that.

Kentucky, Celis, Foliana, and Tanxan looked at the twins, and they couldn’t help but feel sorry for the guys outside. They said nothing, though.

The Divinity Experts from both Plovel and Zadgjor came forward, stopping just a few tens of meters away from the range of the formations. "Roney, Zonhime, come out!"

Zonhime and Roney looked at each other, nodding and stepping outside the protection formation. It’s just that they were still inside the support and slaughtering formations’ range. The protection formation was more of a safe haven for their experts to recover during the duration of the battle. "What?"

Rumalwain smiled, pointing at Roney. "Roney, you fled last time because the chances of survival were small. Now, I heard you returned after Qufis made an agreement with you. Let me guess, they managed to defend and even build their protection formations. That’s why you came back, right?"

"So what?" Roney asked, his expression dark.

Rumalwain didn’t mind. "Look around, do you think you can stop this alliance just because you are helping them? Our Plovel and the Zadgjor guys have almost three times more experts than Qufis."

"Stop beating around the bush and speak what you want," Roney demanded.

Rumalwain’s smile increased. "How about we make an agreement of our own?" Then, he looked at all the experts inside the formation. "You all have no chance of stopping us, but we don’t want to have pointless losses either." Finally, he looked behind him to his experts and Zadgjor’s. "Open the path!"

Behind Rumalwain, the experts separated, creating a space everyone could use to run away. "The first twenty experts to run away will not be pursued by us. Whether you survive on your own later or not matters not to us. At that moment, the Qufis Alliance will have received a big blow anyway, so we don’t need to take down the rest who escaped."

"Bastard!" Zonhime almost exploded. Rumalwain was obviously trying to appeal to the deserters from before. Even worse, she could see that Roney and the others who had returned seemed very tempted to leave. After all, no one expected Plovel and Zadgjor to join together just to deal with them.

Both sides were in even worse terms with each other than with the Qufis Alliance, as their territories bordered each other. Why would they join hands? It was a lot more likely that they would ask Qufis for help against each other than the other way around.

But then, Zonhime noticed Rumalwain and the other Divinity Realm experts’ gazes. They seemed focused on a specific location within Qufis’s Protection Formation. ’Shit! So that’s why!’

Yes, they were focused on Roan and Celis!

Rumalwain continued. "However, that Human and that Demon Plant don’t count! We want them!"

It made sense. After what Roan and Celis showed in the last battle, it was apparent they would be extremely hard to deal with if they managed to reach the Divinity Realm. No, they were already hard to deal with. After all, they caused the failure of the last attack, and back then, they were still in the Middle Stage of the Space-Time Realm. Now, they were both in the Peak Stage!

Plovel reached Zadgjor, showing them what they found about Qufis. After much deliberation, including contacting higher-ups from both powers, they decided to join forces to take down Qufis, mainly to deal with Roan and Celis.

Roan and Celis noticed all the eyes on them, but neither cared one bit. They just looked outside, waiting for everyone’s decision...

Outside, Rumalwain gave them an ultimatum. "You have ten minutes to decide. We want to prevent deaths, but we won’t give up even if we have to take the losses. You’d better think it carefully. Do you really think you can escape once this battle starts? We have way more Space-Time Realm cultivators. But, more importantly, we have five Divinity Realm Experts!"

*Arrrghhh!*

*Nooooorrrrggg....*

Yet, out of nowhere, two screams were heard. One came from inside the Plovel Forces, while the other came from Zadgjor’s.

When everyone looked at those two, all they saw was two Elemental Intent Weapons, a Spear and a Saber, destroying the Dantian and the Core of a Divinity Realm Cultivator and a Demon Beast. Well, they were not in the Divinity Realm anymore.

Holding the spear, Roan... or Juvenal... smiled coldly at Rumalwain. "You need to learn how math works. I can only count three Divinity Realm trashes, not five."
