"Understood! Wait… You want me to attack the Royal Lord too? Isn't that just begging for death?" Mo Sha asked, confused, recalling back to when he and dozens of other 8th ranks fought a desperate battle against one in the Black Prison Great Territory.
"Don't worry about it too much. It is safer for you to attack the Royal Lord than it is to get entangled in Leiji's momentum without his knowledge of your presence." Smiles said, as she and Mo Sha arrived at the Domain Gate.
"I suppose that makes sense… Oh, look at who it is…" Mo sha said, pointing out another person joining up with them.
"Greetings, Smiles Old Ancestor. Sorry I'm late to the party. So, who's fighting in there? The fluctuations could be felt all the way into our territory. We also got a report ahead of time… Though it seems that the information was a bit lacking…" Gold Antelope Paradise's Supreme Elder, Six Wood Divine Monarch, Liu Mu said, arriving on the scene. "I've got some Elders bringing along a few teams as well, they should arrive shortly." He added.
"Good, take this token and pass your power through it for the duration of this fight. And come attack the Royal Lord with me at the start. Then from there listen to Leiji's orders. Though I doubt you'll have a problem with the orders he will give. They are rather straightforward to be fair." Smiles said, handing another token to Six Wood.
"My lord… This token is incredible. If a peak 8th rank were to use this… They might be able to entangle a Royal Lord on their own. Killing one, definitely not. But buying time wouldn't be a frog at the bottom of a well… Let me guess, that Yang Leiji came up with this idea too? How proven is it?" Six Wood asked, suddenly worried about breaking it.
"If you're worried about breaking it, then don't. Leiji can make as many of those as we could ever want. On top of that, the entire Dragon Clan is actively making them as well. As far as effectiveness goes. It more than evens the field. It turns the tables in our favor massively." Smiles explained.
"Good, lead the way and we will attack the Royal Lord with a powerful attack. I want to see just how much better it is to fight without worrying about the corruption of the Ink Force. Hate fighting on a timer." Six Wood said, cupping his hands.
"Yeah, only being able to fight with a third of our maximum strength is not a great feeling. I too am quite interested in this token." Mo Sha smirked, and cupped his hands as well.
"Good, then let us go. Make sure you keep up and don't get distracted by Leiji's fighting ability… He is… quite the power house." Smiles said, turning to pass through the domain gate.
"I'd imagine he is quite strong but even so…" Six Wood started talking as the three passed through the gate. He stopped once he saw the scene before his eyes.
Like Six Wood, Mo Sha was stunned. Even Smiles was slightly taken aback by what was happening.
"Impossible…" The three of them muttered, then they made a b-line for the Royal Lord.
~ Elsewhere in the Void ~
Gold Antelope Paradise's forces met up with High Heaven's Dawn Squad. Feng Ying gave a signal to the other ships. The commanders of the other ships replied in kind. And shortly after all four of the new arrivals were in formation with Breaking Dawn at the forefront. In a five points array. Their speed picked up slightly. Now only 20 minutes remain…
"Yang Kai, reinforcements from Gold Antelope Paradise. A total of 8 7th ranks and several dozen 5th and 6th ranks. Their Supreme Elder, Six Wood Divine Monarch is said to have gone on ahead of them." Feng Ying reported.
"Good, that means there is already some force there. Still, Now I really can't move if I wanted to. Not if there are hidden Ink Clan lying about. Damn it!" Yang Kai said, acknowledging the report.
"If it's any consolation, I feel that even a Supreme Elder with one of these tokens, would be able to at least hold off a Royal Lord for a few moments. Though the injuries would indeed be severe." Bai Yi said, holding her token in her hand.
"Oh, give a token and explanation to our allies. It will definitely come in handy." Yang Kai ordered, in a moment of clarity. "Since we don't know the enemy's numbers… Actually, if Leiji sent a response… That means it is more than he thinks he can handle alone. Which means there must be more than half a million Ink Clan." He went on, thinking about the possible size of the enemy.
"If there is more than half a million Ink Clan… That means at least 6 Territory Lords. And given there is a Royal lord the number could be higher. On top of the fact this place is far richer in resources than the Battlefield is. So there could be double the number of higher end combatants." Feng Ying added to the suggestions.
"It doesn't matter… I'm not going to let a single hair harmed on my baby's head go unpunished. Let alone bruises, cuts and scrapes." Su Yan said, with a smile, a smile holding back a torrent of killing intent along with a sinister torturing intent mixing in there.
"With an attitude like that, I'm sure you could kill a Territory Lord." Yang Kai said.
"Husband, only one won't do. But enough of that for now. Let us get through this and kill the enemy. I'm going to hold my baby again. I know, I'll have a nice long nap cuddling him closely. His Phoenix side is still a bit unstable as it is anyways." Su Yan smiled, clearly thinking past this current hardship, while also laying some clues down to Yang Kai.
"I see, I'll make good on my promise. Including the ones with all the others. But, we're going to have fun with it." Yang Kai said with a half smile.
"""We wouldn't have it any other way!""" All of Yang Kai's Wives said in response.
"Turbulent fluctuations coming our way. The Gate is just ahead." The spotter called out.
"Good…" Yang Kai said, stabilizing the gate.
The ship passed through and most everyone had a similar reaction to the three before… Except for those who had seen this before.
