Chapter 5815: Run, Run, Run!

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Hearing this name, Jian Wushuang understood why Wu Li knew about the Empress leaving behind a clone.

The luck of their previous team was simply extraordinary.

First, Jinchen received a special mission.

Then it was Jiuhu’s turn.

The qualification token sent by the royal family this time was indeed a huge gain.

“Sending the Emperor’s main body for a task that requires only a few stars, and bringing along several Fourth Tribulation experts!” Jian Wushuang asked curiously.

Wu Li shook his head.

He really didn’t know about this.

But if the Empress was bringing so many people, it was probably at least a four-star special mission.

Before Jiuhu left, he only informed him of this matter and didn’t say anything else.

At this critical moment, Wu Li didn’t dare to ask too much.

“It looks like we’re steadily moving into the top four this time!”

Wu Li smiled slightly and nodded.

They were both delighted that the Empress could enter the top four.

This way, they could also get close to the Wanliu Divine Tree.

“Let’s wait for now!”

While the people in the cabin were still unaware of what had happened, the ancient river outside was churning with monstrous waves.

The dragon egg was stolen, no wonder the dragon was so furious.

But this was just the beginning.

They could only hope for the Empress now.

Originally, Jian Wushuang thought that the dragon only had a divine power of 600,000.

From the current situation, he underestimated this dragon.

Just after laying eggs, it could still be so powerful.

Perhaps at its peak, it already had the strength of a Half-Step Sixth Tribulation.

Even the Empress needed to bring along several Fourth Tribulation experts to steal the dragon egg, indicating that she didn’t have much confidence alone.

Boom!

The ancient ship shook once again.

It seemed like there was something underneath the ancient ship’s bottom.

The entire ancient ship was on the verge of capsizing.

The patriarch of the Li family, who maintained the ancient ship, wore a deeply troubled expression.

He was barely holding on.

The dragon, burning its essence, aimed to destroy the ancient ship.

A few more collisions, and the ancient ship would disintegrate.

Without the support of the ancient ship, he would have to flee for his life, let alone others.

With the empress still not returning, he could only relay through voice transmission to Wu Li, indicating that he couldn’t hold on much longer and to be prepared to escape at any moment.

“Your Majesty, you need to be faster!” Elder Muchen gritted his teeth, preparing to make the final decision.

Jian Wushuang leaned against the wall, feeling somewhat strange seeing Elder Muchen in agony.

If the ancient ship couldn’t hold on, then everyone should just escape separately.

There was no need to hesitate!

The Third Tribulation Realm Universe Masters in the cabin were originally just cannon fodder, their only purpose being to try their luck and serve as tools for missions.

Even if they were to fall, Elder Muchen didn’t need to be so indecisive!

Among these Universe Masters, only a few were members of royal families.

More of them were ancestors of family forces.

Once they fell, not only would they be finished, but their families would also be doomed.

They had always courted danger for riches and honor, so they couldn’t blame anyone else.

“Wushuang, let’s escape together later. It’s better to have someone to watch each other’s back!” Wu Li calmly transmitted his voice to Jian Wushuang.

He saw the situation most clearly.

He knew they couldn’t hold on for much longer, and the Empress wouldn’t return for a while.

The dragon’s lair wasn’t far from here.

With the empress’s speed, she could quickly return.

As for why she didn’t come back to save them…

Perhaps it was because of the mission that they couldn’t return.

Or perhaps, this dragon was intentionally sent by the Empress to sacrifice them to divert its attention and accomplish the mission.

That’s why Elder Muchen’s expression was so grim.

But in order for the Yue Kingdom to advance further, they could only sacrifice them now.

“Escape!” Jian Wushuang’s expression changed as he felt the ancient ship beginning to collapse.

First, he communicated with Wu Li, then with a single hand, he directly pulled Princess Jinchen over.

But when he pulled her over, he realized she was also just a clone.

Jian Wushuang cursed inwardly, ignoring the others, he directly broke open the cabin, scanned around, and rushed towards the giant wave ahead.

Wu Li followed closely behind him.

“Wait for this old man!” Elder Muchen knew that Jian Wushuang’s strength was extraordinary, perhaps even stronger than the patriarch of the Li family, so he immediately decided to escape with Jian Wushuang.

But the others were lost.

Scattered, they didn’t even know where to flee.

Seeing no hope, the patriarch of the Li family led a strong member of his clan and also rushed towards Jian Wushuang’s direction.

At this moment, they could only face the giant wave and flee forward.

Jian Wushuang plunged into the giant wave first.

The sky was already filled with thunderstorms, making it impossible to escape through the air.

They could only depart from the riverbed.

But the dragon was also lurking there.

After the ancient ship exploded and collapsed, many Universe Masters, who hadn’t yet escaped, were turned into smoke by the dragon’s thunderstorm domain.

More than twenty Universe Masters died instantly.

Especially the other two emperors, they died a miserable death.

No one went to rescue them.

And they couldn’t be saved anyway.

Jian Wushuang led the escape, diving with Jincheng into the depths of the ancient riverbed.

Because of their quick reaction, they avoided the attack from the dragon.

Behind him, Wu Li ran even faster than the head of the Li family.

None of them were foolish; they understood the danger. Who would dare to confront it head-on at this moment? It would be suicidal.

The empress was still able to fight.

Even with a few Universe Masters of the Fourth Tribulation joining forces, there was a chance of victory.

But having only one reluctant member of the Li family wasn’t nearly enough.

Jian Wushuang could tell that the vitality of the Li family’s head was strong, and his power was not low. If he were to fight desperately, he could still sustain the ancient ship.

However, as the head of the family, he wasn’t fighting alone.

If he fell, the Li family would be finished.

The so-called ten major families of Yue Kingdom actually had weak foundations.

Like the Li family, although they had produced a Universe Master of the Sixth Tribulation, that ancestor had long since fallen, leaving only two Fifth Scattered Tribulation experts in the family now.

As the strongest combat force of the family, how could he dare to risk his life?

And the heads of other families had already fallen. Their families would decline as well. Relying solely on Scattered Tribulation experts couldn’t sustain a family.

Jian Wushuang naturally understood this and harbored no resentment towards anyone.

He just felt that the empress’s actions this time were somewhat excessive.

Completing a special mission was fine.

Not informing them of the reason was also acceptable.

For the sake of secrecy, for safety.

All understandable.

But why lure the dragon here?

Drawing the tiger away from the mountain?

Reluctant to part with the child, unable to catch the wolf?

This was truly harming their own children.

Princess Jincheng was still on the ancient ship.

At this moment, following Jian Wushuang, she still looked puzzled, unaware of what was happening.

She could only follow Jian Wushuang in a confused escape.

“Family?” Jian Wushuang shook his head. What was even more ridiculous was the so-called glory!

The glory of a family was linked to its strength. Without strength, even in the strongest family, you were insignificant, liable to be abandoned at any time.

Better to fight alone, unburdened.
