''A puppet?'' The young man at the middle of rank 8 in the Nascent Soul stared at the old man standing in the sky leading the army of 500 skeletons and the undead knights with eyes filled with disbelief.
Although the young man already knew about Liu Mei's undead army, the problem that 1000 undead skeletons would pose to 2 rank 8 Nascent Soul stage cultivators like them wasn't that big.
Even Liu Mei's Death Eater wouldn't be anything more than a slightly bigger ant in the young man's eyes, as he was confident to take care of it without any problems.
However, seeing a puppet at the early rank 8 of the Nascent Soul appear in front of them finally made the young man raise his vigilance for the first time in this faction war.
Up to now, their faction had only been slightly wary of Jiang Chen and Xie Xingyi's attacks.
As for Liu Mei?
Although she was definitely strong and her Death Eater had even taken care of an early rank 8 Nascent Soul stage cultivator during their last faction war, in the young man's eyes she wasn't able to stop him if he wanted to charge forward and destroy Shun Long.
''Senior brother Wong, it seems like those people may be a bit stronger than we originally thought. However, it still doesn't matter. Senior brother, you can leave this place to me. I will take care of this old man and this army of skeletons and black knights by myself.''
The young man at the early rank 8 of the Nascent Soul cracked his knuckles as he stared at the black-robed old man in the sky and the army of jade-white skeletons and undead knights that had filled the forest below him, before he turned his attention towards the middle rank 8 Nascent Soul stage young man who was standing by his side.
'Senior brother Wong' nodded his head calmly, and a moment later, the 2 young men suddenly shot forward at full speed, one of them flying towards the black-robed old man while the other heading deeper inside the forest.
The young man at the early rank 8 of the Nascent Soul and the black-robed old man both engaged in a fight right in the next moment, while 'senior brother Wong' effortlessly tore a path open through the skeletons and the undead knights as he headed deeper inside the forest.
Of course, how could the skeletons that were still at the middle of rank 7 in the Nascent Soul possibly stop a middle rank 8 Nascent Soul stage cultivator like him? After all, their individual strength was even weaker than normal cultivators at the same level.
As for the black-armored knights, although they were somewhat tougher than the skeletons themselves and their cultivation had even reached the peak of rank 7 in the Nascent Soul instead, there were only 30 of them and only a handful of them were fast enough to block 'senior brother Wong's' path.
Naturally, every single one of them was destroyed without any hesitation, only slowing down 'senior brother Wong' for a couple of seconds before he flew deeper inside the forest!
...
At the same time that 'senior brother Wong' broke free from the skeletons' and the undead knights' entanglement and flew deeper inside the forest, on the Death Eater's back, Liu Mei suddenly opened her eyes and looked in the distance ahead of her with a frosty look.
Although her vision was impeded by the dense cluster of the trees that had filled the forest in front of her, she could clearly sense through her soul sense that a figure was rapidly approaching her direction at an extremely rapid speed.
Barely a few moments later, 'senior brother Wong' finally stopped as he arrived just a few meters away from Liu Mei.
Staring at the enormous undead army that was blocking his way, 'senior brother Wong' only threw a glance at the 500 skeletons and the 30 black-armored undead knights on the ground, and after looking at the black-robed young woman who was standing by Liu Mei's side seriously for a few moments, 'senior brother Wong' finally focused his attention on Liu Mei who was still standing on the Death Eater's back as he said in a tone filled with arrogance and contempt
''Step aside! You are too weak to stand in front of me.''
Liu Mei stared at the yellow-robed young man who was arrogantly floating in the sky without responding, but the look in her mesmerizing black eyes turned colder as she pointed her left hand forward.
The 500 skeletons and the 30 black-armored undead knights suddenly attacked 'senior brother Wong' all at the same time, as they swarmed him from all directions.
Even an early stage rank 8 Nascent Soul stage cultivator would feel fear seeing this scene of 500 jade-white skeletons at the middle of rank 7 in the Nascent Soul and 30 undead knights at the peak of rank 7 charging at him, but 'senior brother Wong' merely snorted as he waved his right hand, taking out a red sword from his spatial ring.
With just a glance, Liu Mei immediately realized that this sword was a peak rank 3 gold-grade weapon.
In the next moment, flames covered not just the sword itself, but 'senior brother Wong's' entire body, before the flames slowly expanded to engulf the charging skeletons and the undead knights in the next moment.
The skeletons and the undead knights didn't falter or feel any fear as they kept charging forward, while an aura of unrestrained bloodlust and killing intent was coming from their bodies, and in just a few moments, they had been completely submerged into 'senior brother Wong's' flames!
Silence had filled the forest that was now on fire, as the only sounds that could now be heard, was the sound of the skeletons or the undead knights charging forward, or the sound of the trees being burned and slowly turn into ash.
But despite being burned, the skeletons and the undead knights didn't seem to stop their charge. Naturally, how could the skeletons or the powerful undead knights fear death?
'Senior brother Wong' merely snorted as he turned his cold gaze towards the few undead knights that had managed to get past his sea of flames and appear in front of him, as he hacked them with his red sword one after the other.
With just a single sword attack, even the powerful undead knights saw their armor crack, while the second attack completely destroyed them.
As for the skeletons, most of them couldn't even get past the sea of flames as they were destroyed before they could even approach 'senior brother Wong'.
In just a few seconds, nearly 100 skeletons and 7 undead knights had turned into ash, but more and more of them kept going forward.
However, 'senior brother Wong' no longer waited for the skeletons or the black-armored knights to attack him, as he turned his attention towards the beautiful young woman on the enormous Death Eater's back.
'Senior brother Wong' clearly knew, that if he really had to deal with all the skeletons and the undead knights, although they wouldn't pose any real danger to him, they would definitely deplete a large amount of his qi.
But his target wasn't this undead army in this faction war, but the leader of the enemy faction deeper inside the forest, Shun Long.
Charging forward like a meteor, 'senior brother Wong' shot towards Liu Mei at full speed, as he waved the red sword in his hand aiming to pierce through her chest.
At that moment however, the black-robed young woman next to Liu Mei suddenly moved, as she took out a small knife from her robes and suddenly thrust it forward toward 'senior brother Wong's' neck.
