"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
Emperor Hongfeng looked at the five four-star martial emperors who had come and immediately sent a message, "Retreat!"
With Kester here, he would never have the chance to kill Yang Qi, and staying would be a waste of time, so Emperor Red Maple chose to leave without hesitation.
"Did the Emperor let you go?"
Just when Emperor Red Maple was about to leave with his five practitioners, a sudden voice spread in the void. It was Kester who spoke.
Emperor Hongfeng looked at Keister and lowered his posture and said, "Sir Keister, it is wrong for us to attack your friends. Please let us leave because our Red Lotus Group has some friendship with your technological civilization."
"You, the Red Lotus Group, don't have such a great reputation." Kester said with a cold smile.
Hearing what Keister said, the face of Emperor Hongfeng changed, and he said hurriedly, "Sir Keister, don't forget that the person behind our Red Lotus Group is..."
"I know who is behind you, the Red Lotus Group. If you have offended me, I can let you go. Unfortunately, you have offended Brother Xuxing." Keister interrupted the Red Maple Emperor and sneered, "Even if it is the person behind you, he can't protect you. For Brother Xuxing's safety, you should just die."
"escape!"
Emperor Red Maple's expression was extremely ugly, but his movements did not pause at all. As soon as he moved his body, he was about to escape into the depths of the void.
Emperor Red Maple still had some self-knowledge. Once Kester and the others took action, he would have no chance of resistance at all. The only way he could survive was to run for his life.
Whoosh~
However, just as Emperor Red Maple made a move, a huge beam of light suddenly burst out from a warship not far away, attacking Emperor Red Maple and his six companions directly.
Feeling the terrifying power contained in the incoming beam, Emperor Hongfeng's expression changed drastically, and he roared unwillingly, "No!"
Boom!
A huge beam of light fell, accompanied by a loud bang, and the six people including Emperor Red Maple were immediately swallowed up by the beam, dying on the spot, with no trace of their bodies left!
But with the conventional weapons of the warship, it is impossible to kill a cultivator of the level of Red Maple Emperor with one blow. However, when Kast was talking with Yang Qi, he had already started to accumulate energy in the warship. When Red Maple Emperor and others were escaping, the strongest attack was unleashed, directly killing Red Maple Emperor and others.
hiss~
Seeing the corpses of Emperor Hongfeng and his entourage being destroyed, Emperor Chiyun and others couldn't help but gasp. He was a cultivator at the peak of the five-star Martial Emperor level. Even though he had lost some vitality before, it was still beyond their expectations that he was killed so easily.
Yang Qi was not too surprised by this scene. After all, when he was in the Jedi, Yang Qi had seen the strongest power of these warships. However, these strongest attacks needed a certain amount of time to accumulate energy. They were fine for large-scale wars, but if they were used in a battle with similar strength, they would basically not hit anyone.
Yang Qi looked at Keister in front of him and said with gratitude, "Thank you, Brother Keister, for your help."
The Red Maple Emperor wanted to kill him, not only because they killed the cultivators of the Red Lotus Bandits, but they also wanted to take the Cauldron of All Things from him. Now that they have the protection of Kester, the Red Maple Emperor dare not take action. Once Kester leaves, it is hard to say whether the other party will continue to hunt them down. Without Kester's protection, if they meet the Red Maple Emperor again, they will only die!
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor." Keister smiled and continued, "This is not the Red Lotus Bandits' area of activity. They chased us here, obviously they want to kill you. We still have military duties to attend to. We must rush to the front line as soon as possible. We can't protect you forever. Killing them is the best way."
Although Yang Qi's identity was special, Keister could not give up his military duties to escort Yang Qi. If the Red Maple Emperor attacked Yang Qi again after they left, Yang Qi and his companions would be dead. It was precisely because of this that Keister killed the Red Maple Emperor and his companions, directly killing the threat to Yang Qi.
Hearing this, Yang Qi could not help but nod his head. In fact, after meeting Keister, he had thought about using Keister and others to kill the Red Maple Emperor. However, he was not very familiar with Keister, and he was not sure that he could let the other party kill the Red Maple Emperor and others. In desperation, Yang Qi could only retreat to the second best and prepare to seek Keister's protection to get rid of the Red Maple Emperor and others.
But before Yang Qi could speak, Kester took the initiative to help him deal with Emperor Red Maple and others.
“Brother Kester, just now the Red Maple Emperor said that the person behind them…” Yang Qi looked at Kester in front of him and said.
"You don't think that the bandit groups don't have any background, do you?" Keister glanced at Yang Qi, then smiled and said, "The bandit groups are all supported by some large forces within our two major forces. Otherwise, with the strength of these bandit groups, how could they survive on the edge of the battlefield?"
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded secretly. Although the strength of the several major bandit groups was not inferior to the top cultivation forces in the Blood Soul Sea, there were almost no six-star Martial Emperors among the bandit groups. They could not be compared with the strong men on the front lines of the two major forces.
However, several large bandit groups can move around the edge of the battlefield without fear. This would obviously be impossible if they did not have the support of powerful spiritual practitioners behind them. Otherwise, the spiritual practitioners' armies on the front lines of the two major forces would simply not allow them to survive.
"Several major bandit gangs actually act as merchants on the battlefield. This is actually a helpless move." Kester said with emotion.
The life span of a cultivator is long, and the mission of guarding the front line is not a short-term mission. During this period of time, the cultivator cannot leave the front line. Although the army has some resources, the resources in the army are mainly military supplies, which are relatively simple. These battlefield merchants actually play the role of helping the cultivators in the army to exchange what they have with the rear.
Hearing what Kester said, Yang Qi couldn't help but nodded. He could understand the battlefield merchants. They were a special group of people created by a special environment.
"Brother Kester, you are going to the front line. Has the friction on the front line escalated again?" Yang Qi looked at Kester and said.
Whether it is the nine major cultivation forces or the technological civilization, a large number of troops are usually stationed on the front line. Generally, there is no need to dispatch practitioners from the rear to the front line. Drawing practitioners from the rear to the front line shows that the situation on the front line is already very tense.
Upon hearing this, Keister did not hide anything and smiled slightly, saying, "The front line remains the same. We go to the front line mainly for training."
The front line not only means war, but also serves the purpose of training troops. Therefore, the front line is not always guarded by fixed practitioners, but will rotate with the practitioner army in the rear every once in a while.
