Xia Min'ao watched the back of the person blocking him with a smile, and said proudly, "I knew you would come to save me."
Yu Qiang Divine Master raised his arm and clenched his fist, forming a divine light shield in front of him, blocking a bone spear from an Arid Lord.
Yu Qiang Divine Master listened to Xia Min'ao's frivolous words and snorted impatiently.
The next moment,
A ten-thousand-zhang bone gate appeared behind the Arid Lord. A giant bone spear emerged from the gate and blasted down from the sky, directly striking Yu Qiang Divine Master.
Yu Qiang Divine Master did not use his divine statue true form to resist the bone gate. He turned his fist into a palm, clenched the bone spear, and pulled forward. The Arid Lord, unwilling to give up his weapon, used his Arid Divine Power to resist.
Yu Qiang Divine Master seemed a little annoyed. He paused his wrist and directly broke the bone spear with his bare hands. Then, Yu Qiang Divine Master took a step forward and thrust the broken spear tip into the Arid Lord's heart.
Bang!!!
The bone spear and bone gate in the sky exploded, forming wisps of Arid Divine Power that dispersed in the air.
Yu Qiang Divine Master held the spear tip, prodding the Arid Lord who was not completely dead, and pushed the spear tip forward a few more inches, piercing through his back.
"You can't kill me, my divine soul is in the Arid King's Divine Palace."
Yu Qiang Divine Master sneered disdainfully. He reached out his left hand, and as he extended it, his hand gradually became transparent. He grabbed the Arid Lord's head, whose expression was ferocious and smug, as if piercing through boundless void.
At the same moment,
In the Arid King's Divine Palace, on the altar where divine souls were enshrined, a hand appeared and reached for a floating black divine soul.
"Hmm?"
On the throne, the Arid King sighed and glanced at the transparent hand reaching for the divine soul.
Hiss!
The transparent hand instantly ignited with green smoke.
The hand clearly paused, but it still grabbed the divine soul, and then the divine soul and the hand disappeared simultaneously.
"Ah!!!"
The Arid Lord screamed in pain, his eyes wide as he looked at Yu Qiang Divine Master. He never would have imagined that Yu Qiang was so powerful that he would forcibly snatch his divine soul through the boundless void in front of the Arid King.
Yu Qiang Divine Master raised his arm, looking at the burn marks on the back of his hand, his eyes cold.
The next moment,
He directly crushed the Arid Lord's divine soul with one hand, then raised his right hand into a blade and slashed down fiercely at his left wrist.
Hiss!
The hand that was burned by the Arid King was cut off.
Yu Qiang Divine Master was expressionless, letting the blood flow from the severed arm. He turned around, looked Xia Min'ao up and down, saw that he was unharmed, and nodded slightly. Then, he admonished,
"If your strength is insufficient, cause less trouble. You are not worthy of being on the central battlefield."
Xia Min'ao grinned and said, "I have a protective god, they don't have this treatment. Your hand..."
Yu Qiang Divine Master raised his severed arm and looked at it. "Just one hand, it's fine."
Yu Qiang Divine Master surveyed the battlefield and sighed, "The battlefield is dangerous. Don't risk your life to test me. I have a divine miracle on you."
"I knew you wouldn't abandon me," Xia Min'ao said with a smile.
"Hmph!" Yu Qiang Divine Master snorted impatiently, "I don't have that many hands for you to mess with."
As Yu Qiang finished speaking, his figure disappeared.
Not long after,
He Li arrived beside Xia Min'ao and also looked him up and down, his eyes strange.
"Min'ao, actually, Yu Qiang Divine Master is your biological father, right?"
Xia Min'ao rolled his eyes and ignored him. This guy's focus was always on strange things.
He didn't even consider what Yu Qiang Divine Master's presence on the central battlefield meant, but instead wondered why Yu Qiang Divine Master came to rescue him, and even sacrificed a hand.
At this moment,
Due to the arrival of the divine race support troops and the death of an Arid Lord, the Arid race army began to retreat. The eleven Arid Lords who were fighting Yan Li, seeing that ambushing He Li was impossible, also retreated with the main Arid race army.
Yan Li exhaled deeply, his gaze fixed on the direction where the eleven Arid Lords retreated. Then, his figure gradually blurred, disappearing into the void, and he quietly returned to the divine race camp.
On the other side,
The three brothers, Xia Ye Qi, Xia Min'ao, and He Li, stood side by side at the edge of the battlefield, watching Shen Tu and Xun He welcome the divine race reinforcements and lead them to the divine race camp.
The three brothers looked displeased and indignant.
He Li pouted, "Petty people getting ahead."
Xia Ye Qi's face was cold, "Hmph!"
Xia Min'ao chuckled, "Ignorant fools."
He Li said quietly, "With the main divine race reinforcements coming to the central battlefield, the divine realm will be empty. Besides the clan leaders and the Realm-Guarding Divine Masters, there won't be much divine race guard force left."
Xia Min'ao smiled, "Chen Du's Heavenly God is more powerful. His wisdom and strategy are admirable."
When He Li heard Xia Min'ao praise Chen Du, he immediately felt proud. Praising my brother is like praising me. He was a little smug and very happy.
However,
Xia Min'ao's next sentence made He Li's happy mood instantly turn gloomy, as if struck by lightning.
"He Li, lend me the Xi Soil that Xi Hong gave you."
He Li's smiling eyes instantly became naive and pure, filled with wisdom, and he asked doubtfully, "What is Xi Soil? I don't know."
Xia Min'ao ignored He Li's act and said directly, "On the sixth day after Yan Li was awakened by Xi Ming, Xi Hong sent a team of subordinates to the southern battlefield to find you and show goodwill. He gave you a bottle of Xi Soil. Don't play dumb, lend it to me. Yu Qiang Divine Master's hand is broken, and Xi Soil can restore his hand."
He Li put away his act, sighed deeply, and said with a mournful expression, "To be honest, I used that bottle of Xi Soil. Back in the southern battlefield, I was in mortal danger, experiencing a life-and-death tribulation.
Once, we were surrounded and killed by the Arid race army. It was all thanks to my excellent command, and at the last moment, I displayed great power..."
Xia Min'ao impatiently said, "Just tell me the result."
He Li was not embarrassed and said frankly, "Xiao Lan's tail was broken, and I used Xi Soil to reattach his tail."
Xia Ye Qi looked at He Li with shock. To utter such an insulting lie, He Li, you've gone too far.
Xia Min'ao ignored him and reached out to take it, saying, "I said I'm borrowing it, not that I won't return it."
"I really don't have any more. If you don't believe me, ask..."
"I won't ask, and I don't believe you," Xia Min'ao glared at He Li. "Give it here."
He Li mumbled and dawdled, rubbing his fingers, very reluctantly. Huai Xi behind him couldn't stand it and pushed He Li's arm.
He Li looked back at Huai Xi and the gathered divine race army, then reluctantly took out a small white jade bottle, about half a finger in size, from his sleeve and handed it to Xia Min'ao.
"You'll return it, right? I'm not worth much, and I still need to get married."
"I will return it, don't worry."
"Then where will you get Xi Soil to return it to me?"
"I can't get Xi Soil anywhere, are you kidding me?"
"Then how will you return it?"
"Don't worry, I will return it."
"Then how will you return it?"
Xia Min'ao became anxious, "You're really dawdling. I said I'll return it."
He Li scratched his head and said, "No, I just want to know where you'll get Xi Soil to return it to me."
"I already said I can't get Xi Soil. If I could get Xi Soil, would I ask you for it?"
"Hey? No, if you can't get Xi Soil, how will you return it to me?"
"Don't worry, I will return it."
Xia Ye Qi looked at the two of them acting like a broken record and gritted his teeth in hatred. Apart from himself, were there any decent people in the Imperial Spirit Divine Race?
