Chapter 235: The War God Hall's Operation! Successfully Luring Skeleton Gan Ning into a Trap!
Huangmei Hamlet.
The front-line fortress of the Corpse Lich Territory.
Several hundred Cursed Corpse Arcanists summoned a massive Bone Prison Seal.
Although it was only a temporary prison, it was exceptionally sturdy. Breaking through it from either the inside or the outside was extremely difficult.
After Huang Zu successfully escorted the last Calamity Army soldier into the Bone Prison Seal with his subordinates, all 3,700-plus Calamity Army prisoners had been imprisoned within the heavily guarded camp at its center.
The skeleton generals beside Huang Zu finally let out sighs of relief.
"Now nothing can possibly go wrong!" Skeleton Chen Jiu said. "These human soldiers may not be particularly powerful, but their endless cycle of resurrection made them troublesome. Fortunately, they've been successfully sealed and imprisoned. They'll never be able to escape and stir up trouble again."
Chen Sheng also nodded.
"With dual seals and heavy guards, it's impossible for them to break free from within or be rescued from outside!"
The 3,700 Calamity Army soldiers.
Had not only been sealed by the Petrification Curse into stone statues.
But had also been imprisoned within the Bone Prison Seal located at the center of Huangmei Hamlet.
No matter how one looked at it, escape was impossible.
However, whether it was the Petrification Curse or the Bone Prison Seal, neither was a permanent spell. The Cursed Corpse Arcanists still had to periodically replenish the formation's magical power.
The best solution was naturally to transport them back to the territory and lock them inside the dungeon.
Once imprisoned in the territorial dungeon, there was virtually no possibility of escape or rescue. Unless the territory was destroyed or the lord personally granted amnesty, they could remain imprisoned until the end of time.
Keeping them in Huangmei Hamlet for now was merely a temporary measure.
On one hand, they were waiting for reinforcements from the Corpse Lich Territory to ensure absolute safety during transportation.
On the other hand, they served as bait to lure the human army into attacking Huangmei Hamlet, allowing them to exploit the defensive stronghold to wear down the humans and inflict even greater casualties.
After completing his mission.
Huang Zu came before his lord to report.
"My Lord, all of the human undead troops have been imprisoned. The transfer proceeded smoothly without encountering any attacks."
Xie Ming frowned slightly.
If the humans had launched an assault during the transfer, they could have at least rescued some of the prisoners. Yet they had made no move whatsoever.
That was rather strange.
"The human lord must have feared Your Lordship and completely abandoned this undead force!"
Huang Zu seized the opportunity to flatter him.
"With Your Lordship personally overseeing the front lines, these humans can't possibly stir up any waves. All they can do is surrender in despair and await execution!"
As an Evil Corpse Fiend famous for cunning and cruelty.
Xie Ming had no interest in flattery.
He merely said indifferently,
"Do not underestimate them. This human territory is more difficult to deal with than expected. Based on my observations over the past day or two, an astonishing number of troops have been transported into Woniu Mountain."
"If I'm not mistaken, this force consists of elite troops from the Wan City region. There are now over ten thousand defenders gathered within Sanxiang City."
Huang Zu was greatly shocked.
"What? That many?"
Xie Ming replied,
"This is precisely the human lord's greatest advantage. Humans themselves are weak and insignificant, but they happen to share the same race as this world's natives, allowing them to recruit local forces to the greatest possible extent."
Through various reconnaissance methods.
He had discovered that this army transferred from New Wan City was extraordinarily powerful.
Nearly every soldier had reached Tier Two.
Almost half of them were Tier-Two Elites.
Among them were very likely numerous Tier-Three Elite experts.
Perhaps even Tier-Three or Tier-Four commanders comparable to Skeleton Chen Jiu and Skeleton Chen Sheng.
What kind of elite army was this?
An ordinary human lord could never cultivate such a force through his own efforts without at least twenty or thirty years.
Even Xie Ming, who could transform natives into the Dead Bones race through the Great Altar of Dead Bones, had spent seven full years building an undead force of nearly ten thousand soldiers.
Even setting Gan Ning and Huang Zu aside.
The overall quality and combat strength of his undead army might not even surpass the native forces from Wan City.
One could say.
Although humans lacked the advantage of timing.
Within this plane.
They possessed every advantage in terrain and popular support.
As a result.
The once-easy human lord.
Had now become an opponent worthy of a serious war.
Of course.
Even with such overwhelming advantages.
Not every lord possessed the ability to win over natives.
Among a hundred lords.
One probably couldn't find even a single one capable of doing so.
Even if they shared the exact same race.
It was extremely difficult for a Starsea Lord to earn the natives' complete trust and loyalty.
Xie Ming had no idea how the lord of Luoshui City across the battlefield had accomplished it.
But the very fact that he could.
Proved he was anything but ordinary.
However—
His greatest strength was humanity.
And his greatest weakness was humanity.
With this lord's abilities and methods.
Had he belonged to an Upper Race or even a Mid-Tier Race.
His future potential would have been extraordinary.
But as a mere human.
Even if he could recruit natives.
His own strength remained too weak.
Not enough to truly threaten Xie Ming.
Huang Zu asked,
"How should we respond?"
Xie Ming answered,
"For now, we won't take the initiative to attack. We must avoid dispersing our forces and falling into a trap. If the human army attacks the Shangting Hamlet or Mountain Pass Village strongholds, don't defend them to the death. Withdraw at the proper time and consolidate all forces at Huangmei Hamlet."
Abandoning two strongholds.
Made Huang Zu feel extremely unwilling.
Yet it was indeed the safest course.
Although his lord had reinforced the front lines.
There were only a little over five thousand Dead Bones soldiers stationed there.
In addition.
There were fourteen hundred Cursed Corpse Arcanists.
Six hundred Devouring Armored Corpses.
For a total of two thousand Corpse Fiend troops.
Certainly.
That was enough to contend with the human native army.
But Xie Ming wanted to avoid a mutually destructive battle whenever possible.
The best strategy was therefore to hold the Huangmei Hamlet defensive line and exploit its fortifications to wage an asymmetric war of attrition.
The Corpse Lich Territory's remaining troops were also being rapidly mobilized.
They could enter Woniu Mountain whenever an opportunity arose.
For the time being, however, there was no need to deploy them all to the front.
Otherwise, the rear settlements would become vulnerable to a surprise human raid.
Xie Ming's thinking was meticulous.
He would never expose an opening lightly.
And if he did.
It was probably bait.
This time.
He had deliberately refrained from committing all of his forces to the front.
Partly to prevent his rear from being exposed.
Partly to minimize risk.
But there was another important objective.
He wanted to lure the opposing lord onto the battlefield personally.
The two armies were currently facing each other in Woniu Mountain.
On the surface.
Their troop numbers appeared roughly equal.
The humans in Sanxiang City even held a slight numerical advantage.
However.
The Corpse Lich Territory possessed fortified positions.
In addition.
They had Lord Xie Ming himself.
Corpse Fiend General Gray Decay.
Dead Bones powerhouses Gan Ning and Huang Zu.
Along with many other experts.
Both Xie Ming and Gan Ning possessed Boss-level combat power.
Gray Decay could temporarily reach Boss-level strength through the enhancement of a Fate Skill.
Even Huang Zu possessed the strength of a first-rate commander.
Not to mention the numerous third-rate and fourth-rate skeleton generals under his command.
The human lord should clearly understand.
That if he didn't personally enter the battlefield.
Merely relying on the generals he had recruited.
Would never be enough to contend with the Corpse Lich Territory's front-line forces.
Especially since the Corpse Lich Territory still had many powerful generals and elite combatants who had yet to appear.
But the moment the human lord entered the battlefield himself.
Xie Ming could immediately gauge his true strength.
And then formulate targeted measures to end the war as quickly as possible.
Naturally.
Xie Ming had no intention of merely waiting.
He immediately ordered Gan Ning to appear.
A few seconds later.
A mass of shadow energy emerged.
Skeleton Gan Ning's figure quickly materialized from within.
Huang Zu shouted,
"Gan Ning! Before the lord, why aren't you kneeling?"
The soul fire within Gan Ning's eyes flickered.
Xie Ming's overwhelming pressure descended upon him.
Skeleton Gan Ning had no choice but to kneel.
Xie Ming said calmly,
"Gan Ning. You've accomplished nothing in your last two missions. I'll give you one final chance to prove yourself."
A trace of resistance arose within Gan Ning.
After the death of his only friend, Su Fei.
He had grown weary of this territory.
Nor did he wish to continue fighting for the lord before him.
Unfortunately.
He no longer controlled his own fate.
Xie Ming ordered,
"Leave immediately. Infiltrate Sanxiang City. Probe their strength and gather intelligence on the human Hero Units stationed there."
Huang Zu added,
"This time, success is your only option. Do not disappoint His Lordship again. Otherwise, you know exactly what awaits you."
Although Skeleton Gan Ning was deeply dissatisfied.
He could not refuse his lord's command.
Still.
Perhaps this was for the best.
He had no desire to remain here anyway.
His figure flashed.
And vanished into the shadows once again.
Less than half an hour later.
Skeleton Gan Ning had already traveled several hundred li through Shadow March.
Shadow March could transport multiple people.
But the more people it carried.
The slower it became.
Traveling alone was Gan Ning's fastest configuration.
Sanxiang City was now less than a hundred li away.
Gan Ning deliberately slowed down to search for the best point of entry.
At that very moment.
Something completely unexpected occurred.
A powerful shockwave burst toward him.
Instantly knocking him out of his shadow state.
"Hahaha! The strategist truly calculated everything! We actually caught this guy!"
"Mr. Jia's concealment technique is even more incredible! We've been lying in ambush here all this time, and he never sensed us!"
"Amazing!"
"Having someone like Jia Xu in our territory..."
"We're always the ones setting traps for others. Since when did anyone get to outplay us?"
"..."
Although Skeleton Gan Ning had been struck.
The attackers were relatively weak.
The attack caused almost no real damage.
He quickly locked onto the ambushers.
It was a small Calamity Army squad.
Only around twenty people.
Every one of them belonged to the War God Hall Legion.
The three leading them.
Were a burly man wielding the Thousand-Skull Demon Hammer.
A heavily armored swordsman with shield and blade.
And a low-profile young man carrying a blood-patterned sword.
They were Ye Li Meng.
Mad Blade Old Wang.
And Lone Boat.
The reason this Calamity Army squad had appeared here to ambush Gan Ning so precisely.
Naturally had nothing to do with their own abilities.
It was entirely thanks to Jia Xu's advance prediction and meticulous arrangements.
Jia Xu had not only locked onto Skeleton Gan Ning even while he traveled in Shadow March.
He had even calculated the exact point where Gan Ning would appear.
Furthermore.
Under the concealment effect of Jia Xu's Eternal Night Curtain.
Combined with his personally cast invisibility techniques.
Ye Li Meng's group had successfully hidden themselves from Gan Ning's perception.
Skeleton Gan Ning's soul fire flared.
"What are you trash supposed to be? You dare block my path?"
"Hahaha! I am Ye Li Meng, Legion Commander of the War God Hall Legion of the Calamity Army!"
Ye Li Meng proudly announced his name.
"Ever since I started my journey, I've never crossed blades with a true famous general. Never thought today's the day that wish comes true!"
Mad Blade Old Wang warned,
"Be careful. He's incredibly strong. We'll only have a chance if we attack together."
Lone Boat simply said,
"Move!"
Ye Li Meng and his companions had lain in ambush here under Jia Xu's orders.
But Gan Ning was a Level 28 Boss Unit.
The disparity in strength was overwhelming.
Precisely because of that.
None of them intended to fight honorably one by one.
Instead.
They rushed him all at once.
The fastest among them.
And naturally the first to strike.
Was War God Hall's number one Ranger.
Lone Boat.
The other War God Hall players could barely follow his movements.
His figure vanished from its original position.
Then split into six or seven afterimages.
Almost simultaneously.
He launched sword attacks from every direction at Gan Ning.
Gan Ning responded by wielding both sabers to block.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
In an instant.
The two exchanged over ten blows.
In the end.
Lone Boat exposed a tiny opening.
Gan Ning drove him back with a single Shadow Slash.
"Die!"
Gan Ning immediately activated his Shadow Movement Technique.
Closing the distance in an instant.
He raised his blade.
Ready to split the agile human in half with another Shadow Slash.
At the critical moment.
Black mist suddenly emerged from Skeleton Gan Ning's body.
The black aura rapidly condensed above his head into the shape of a giant scythe.
Then descended with blinding speed.
Death Curse Slash!
Even someone as powerful as Gan Ning was caught completely off guard by this unavoidable attack.
Although it inflicted little damage.
It disrupted his Shadow Movement Technique.
Lone Boat seized the opportunity to retreat.
The entire exchange had occurred in the blink of an eye.
Although Lone Boat had clearly been overwhelmed.
Being able to escape alive from Skeleton Gan Ning's hands was already enough to prove his strength.
"Lone Boat is amazing!"
"He actually lasted several exchanges against Skeleton Gan Ning and even escaped his pursuit!"
"That achievement alone is enough to brag about forever!"
"Does anyone know what skill Lone Boat used? It looked a little like Swiftflash Assault, but also... not quite."
"..."
Lone Boat's performance left the surrounding Calamity Army players filled with admiration.
The elegant technique in which he transformed into countless graceful afterimages and attacked Gan Ning more than ten times from different angles especially attracted everyone's attention.
Some believed it was Swiftflash Assault.
But careful observation proved otherwise.
Swiftflash Assault.
A blue-quality skill.
Specialized in explosive bursts.
The technique Lone Boat used lacked that explosive ferocity.
Yet it lasted much longer.
Contained many more variations.
Allowed him to remain airborne.
And rendered him invisible whenever he attacked.
This was the latest skill he had created.
Hundred Birds Dark Assault.
It all began a few days ago.
When he acquired a green-quality skill book called 《Hundred Birds Movement Technique》.
The Hundred Birds Movement Technique was one of the techniques within the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear Art.
Its greatest characteristics.
Were graceful unpredictability.
Midair movement.
And incomprehensible footwork.
Making it extremely useful in actual combat.
Lone Boat had little interest in mastering the complete Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear.
But the movement technique itself was invaluable.
After cultivating it to maximum level.
He fused it with his Dark Assault secret technique.
Hundred Birds Movement Technique + Dark Assault = Hundred Birds Dark Assault!
Like Swiftflash Assault.
Hundred Birds Dark Assault was also a blue-quality skill.
Once activated.
Lone Boat could continuously unleash Dark Assault strikes.
Combined with the curse effect of the Bloodstained Sword.
It unleashed terrifying offensive power.
"Our turn!"
Ye Li Meng and Mad Blade Old Wang simultaneously activated Army Breaker Charge.
Charging from opposite directions like two tanks toward Gan Ning.
Bang!
Skeleton Gan Ning didn't dodge.
His right saber blocked the crushing blow of the Thousand-Skull Demon Hammer.
His left saber blocked Mad Blade Old Wang's slash.
"So strong!"
Both men's expressions changed dramatically.
Ye Li Meng and Old Wang were both strength-oriented fighters.
Skeleton Gan Ning was clearly an agility-based assassin.
Yet this opponent.
Who wasn't even known for physical strength.
Had effortlessly blocked the full-power attacks of the Calamity Army's two strongest warriors.
"Fiery Tiger Battle Soul!"
"Fiery Tiger Wild Blade!"
Mad Blade Old Wang immediately stacked two powerful enhancement skills on himself.
Then swung his saber again.
Blazing Blade Qi wrapped around the weapon.
As waves of tiger roars erupted from within it.
Gan Ning instantly evaded with his Shadow Movement Technique.
His twin sabers unleashed invisible Shadow Slashes faster than lightning.
The next moment.
Mad Blade Old Wang was blasted over ten meters away.
Skeleton Gan Ning's Shadow Slash ignored most equipment defenses.
Had Mad Blade Old Wang not been wearing the blue-quality Filthy Demon Armor.
That single strike might have killed him outright.
"Roar!"
Ye Li Meng let out a furious roar.
His hair and skin rapidly turned fiery red.
Molten energy surged from every inch of his body.
Flames engulfed him.
Forming the phantom of a tiger demon around his figure.
His attributes nearly doubled instantly.
Blue-quality skill.
Burning Tiger Soul!
This was Ye Li Meng's signature technique.
Although its duration was short.
And the side effects severe.
Its burst in overall combat power was astonishing.
"Die!"
Ye Li Meng knew he couldn't compete with Skeleton Gan Ning in speed.
So instead of targeting him directly.
He smashed the Thousand-Skull Demon Hammer into the ground.
Generating a devastating shockwave.
Skeleton Gan Ning was struck by the violent impact.
Forced several steps backward.
Even the armor on his body cracked.
Showing just how terrifying Ye Li Meng's area attack truly was.
"Thousand-Skull Charge!"
"Fiery Tiger Mountain-Crushing Drop!"
Ye Li Meng simultaneously activated both his weapon skill.
And the devastating Fiery Tiger Mountain-Crushing Drop.
Combined with Burning Tiger Soul.
And the shockwave.
Everything within dozens of meters fell within his attack range.
He was convinced.
Even Skeleton Gan Ning would be heavily wounded.
After all.
His Thousand-Skull Demon Hammer had already been upgraded to Tier Three.
Blue quality.
And enhanced all the way to Level 6.
Never underestimate Level 6 equipment.
This was a Level 6 Tier-Three Blue-Quality weapon.
Ye Li Meng believed that with his current overall strength.
Combined with food and talisman buffs.
He could already fight a third-rate or fourth-rate Abyss Commander one-on-one.
Unfortunately.
Gan Ning wasn't a commander.
He was a Boss Unit.
Even the weakest Boss surpassed the strongest commander.
Although Ye Li Meng possessed the highest destructive power.
The greatest killing potential.
And posed the greatest threat among everyone present.
His movements.
Looked painfully slow in Skeleton Gan Ning's eyes.
The instant Ye Li Meng leaped into the air.
Preparing to swing the hammer.
Gan Ning threw one of his sabers.
Activated Shadow Leap.
Caught the saber in midair.
And slashed Ye Li Meng out of the sky.
Completely neutralizing the devastating attack.
Bang!
Ye Li Meng crashed to the ground.
Gan Ning transformed into a mass of black shadow energy.
Instantly appeared before the sprawled Ye Li Meng.
Raised both blades.
And prepared to chop him into pieces.
"It's not over yet!"
Ye Li Meng roared again.
His body suddenly changed.
Melting into a puddle of dark green tar-like substance.
Gan Ning's attacks chopped the substance apart.
But caused surprisingly little actual damage.
Ye Li Meng then reformed.
His body now existing in a semi-liquid asphalt state.
His strength increased even further.
One hammer strike.
Forced Skeleton Gan Ning several steps backward.
"This is..."
Even Skeleton Gan Ning hadn't expected.
These seemingly insignificant humans.
To possess such a diverse array of methods.
Ye Li Meng's body had now partially transformed into an elemental state.
This was the effect of the Filthy Offspring Helmet's skill.
Filthy Ritual.
The skill temporarily transformed the user's body into a semi-elemental form.
In this state.
Physical damage was greatly reduced.
Critical hits from slashing and piercing attacks became impossible.
However.
Magical damage.
Especially fire spells.
Would deal greatly increased damage.
In addition.
The skill also granted attribute enhancements.
Causing every attack to inflict poison damage and spirit damage.
Naturally.
Filthy Ritual also carried side effects.
Mana consumption skyrocketed.
And after the skill ended.
The user's attributes would be heavily reduced for several hours.
"Don't underestimate the War God Hall Legion!"
Ye Li Meng roared.
"Old Wang! Boat! Together! Kill this bastard!"
"Got it!"
Lone Boat and Mad Blade Old Wang had already recovered.
The three strongest members of War God Hall attacked Gan Ning simultaneously.
The other War God Hall members couldn't even find opportunities to join the melee.
They could only remain at a distance.
Providing spell and arrow support.
Throughout this battle.
Hang Yu observed everything from behind the scenes.
Although the three of them together were still clearly inferior to Skeleton Gan Ning.
The fact that they could survive more than a dozen exchanges was already astonishing.
After all.
Skeleton Gan Ning was a Boss Unit.
In the past.
Players needed several hundred people just to defeat a commander.
Now.
Against a Boss Unit.
They could already coordinate with one another and withstand over ten exchanges.
Even considering the assistance of the dozen or so elite War God Hall members nearby.
It still proved.
That Ye Li Meng.
Lone Boat.
And Mad Blade Old Wang.
Had all stepped into the threshold of commander-level strength.
The top veterans of the Calamity Army truly were formidable.
Of course.
Even so.
The outcome of the battle wouldn't change.
Against Huang Zu.
Perhaps they still had a chance.
But Skeleton Gan Ning.
Was simply too powerful.
At least.
Far too powerful for the current generation of Calamity Army players.
After fighting Skeleton Gan Ning for more than ten exchanges.
Ye Li Meng.
Lone Boat.
And Mad Blade Old Wang.
Gradually fell into a desperate situation.
"So that's all you've got!"
"I haven't even started getting serious!"
Skeleton Gan Ning had clearly lost patience with these Calamity Army players.
Just as he prepared to unleash Shadow Arrow Rain and wipe out everyone present in a single move.
A gigantic blade light suddenly slashed toward him!
The blade light was snow-white.
Its momentum surged like a raging tidal wave.
Its power far exceeded anything the Calamity Army players could produce.
Skeleton Gan Ning hastily blocked.
Yet was still blasted backward several zhang.
The soul fire in his eyes shook violently.
Had flesh still remained upon his face.
It would surely have worn an expression of utter disbelief.
"Su Fei? It's you!"
An enormous dark-red stone coffin had appeared on the battlefield.
A Dead Bones Skeleton slowly stepped out from within.
It was none other than Gan Ning's closest brother.
His one and only true friend.
Su Fei.
"You're actually alive!"
Gan Ning was overjoyed.
Not only had Su Fei appeared before him completely unharmed.
His aura had grown even stronger than before.
He had at least reached the level of a first-rate Boss.
"Xingba! Don't come any closer! It's a trap!"
Su Fei suddenly swung his saber.
Sending Gan Ning flying backward as he attempted to approach.
"I've been controlled! I can't control myself!"
Only then did Gan Ning notice.
Countless threads extending from the stone coffin.
Their other ends connected directly to Skeleton Su Fei.
Wasn't this the same secret technique Jia Xu had once used outside New Wan City to control the Acolyte Secret Guards?
Even the lord's most loyal Acolyte Secret Guards could be controlled.
It was hardly surprising that Su Fei had fallen victim as well.
"Damn it!"
Gan Ning flew into a rage.
Jia Xu truly was despicably cunning.
He had actually manipulated Gan Ning's closest friend against him.
If Gan Ning fought back.
He would have to kill his only and dearest friend with his own hands.
If he refused to fight.
Su Fei.
Now strengthened by Jia Xu's puppet technique.
Was considerably stronger than he had ever been while alive.
Given Su Fei's current strength.
Combined with the powerful Calamity Army experts present.
Even Gan Ning wasn't confident he could survive.
Not to mention.
That terrifying Ghost Warlock lurking behind the scenes.
The same one who had once inflicted such heavy losses upon him.
"Xingba, be careful!"
Before Su Fei could finish warning him.
He had already lunged forward.
Raising his massive saber with both hands.
Delivering an explosive slash.
Too fast!
Gan Ning barely managed to block with both sabers.
His feet were driven straight into the ground.
The sheer force of the attack placed tremendous pressure on him.
Cracks spread across many of his bones.
"Xingba! Fight back!"
As Su Fei spoke.
Another slash descended.
Sending Skeleton Gan Ning flying.
"Don't hesitate! Kill me! Otherwise, you'll die!"
Naturally.
Skeleton Gan Ning couldn't bear to attack his only friend.
His gaze quickly locked onto the upright stone coffin nearby.
Although its interior was pitch black and impossible to see.
The threads controlling Su Fei clearly originated from within.
"Die!"
Gan Ning seized the opportunity.
Using Shadow Leap to appear before the coffin.
He thrust both sabers directly into it.
He believed.
That as long as he destroyed the source of the control.
As long as he killed the Ghost Warlock hidden inside.
Su Fei's control would be broken.
Yet at that exact moment.
Something completely unexpected happened once again.
A tremendous mass of black energy suddenly erupted from within the coffin.
Gan Ning was caught completely off guard.
Swallowed by the darkness.
And dragged directly into the coffin.
"It's a trap!"
"Gan Ning got captured?"
The Calamity Army players were all stunned.
So Jia Xu's true objective.
Had been to capture Gan Ning?
From any perspective.
It was an incredibly worthwhile operation.
Gan Ning himself was among the enemy's strongest combatants.
Capturing this isolated Gan Ning and eliminating him.
Would undoubtedly deal the Corpse Lich Territory a devastating blow.
At that moment.
Su Fei was also drawn back into the stone coffin.
The lid automatically sealed shut.
Skeleton Gan Ning's presence vanished completely.
"Legion Commander Ye, you've worked hard."
Jia Xu's voice drifted out from within the stone coffin.
"Your mission has been completed."
