441: Great War

The Yanhuang Clan, this newly emerged race, soon made major moves.

For instance, a vast amount of personnel and supplies were dispatched to the Frontier battlefield of the universe.

This was quite appropriate.

However, after the Insect Race joined the Yanhuang Clan, the Yanhuang Clan did not use the Insect Race's immense combat power to throw their weight around the universe.

Therefore, the Yanhuang Clan's reputation was quite good.

But only for now, because soon, the Yanhuang Clan's reputation would explode!

"The Yao Race has truly gone mad," an Ascension Nine of the Calamity Mercenary Group complained.

"A mere Yao Race dares to fight to the death with my Calamity Mercenary Group?"

"In my opinion, we should all go all out and just kill them all."

After these words were spoken, there was silence.

The Insect Race and the Mechanical Race had already ceased hostilities.

It was said they had reached a new cooperative relationship regarding the spirit net and the pheromone network.

You see, the universe isn't just about fighting and killing; it's about social dynamics.

So, are we and the Yao Race really going to fight endlessly like this?

I heard the Tiangong Clan and the Star Spirit Clan are thinking about peace talks again.

Damn it. How annoying!

Other Great Clans can have peace talks because they are already Great Clans.

But the Yao Race...

If the Calamity Mercenary Group enters peace talks, wouldn't that mean acknowledging the Yao Race's future status as a Great Clan?

Then from whose share would the Yao Race's benefits be carved out?

Mine? I won't do it!

This is the dilemma of the Calamity Mercenary Group.

They were backed into a corner, so there was no choice but to drag it out like this.

"Either we wait for that first generation of the Yao Race to appear, ignore all codes of conduct, swarm him, and kill him directly."

"Then, we can have peace talks with the Yao Race."

"If we can't win, we'll make concessions. Anyway, once the Yao Race loses their first generation, they will fall back down in a hundred or eighty years at most."

"We'll swallow our pride for now and deal with him slowly later," an Ascension Nine said.

Everyone's eyes lit up instantly.

This was the approach closest to success and the most prudent one.

"Let's do that!"

After thinking it over, everyone quickly agreed.

Ye Su went to battle.

As the nominal first generation of the Yao Race, he had to make a move every once in a while to continue the war with the Calamity Mercenary Group.

But this time, Ye Su didn't come to fight; he came to reap the benefits.

Boom—

In the vast battlefield, countless roars erupted.

The fighting continued.

The Yao Race's offensive slowed, and the cannon fodder-level Yao soldiers were leaving the battlefield in batches.

Because Ye Su was conspicuous enough, the Calamity Mercenary Group did not notice the abnormality of the Yao Race.

The cannon fodder... in the upcoming battle, would quickly become true cannon fodder in every sense.

"The opportunity has come..."

Watching Ye Su appear, the Ascension Nine of the Calamity Mercenary Group narrowed his eyes.

One of them stepped forward directly.

He was—Heng Suan!

The most notorious Ascension Nine in the universe.

He had a hobby: bullying the weak.

In his own words, "I was bullied when I was weak. Why can't I bully the weak now that I'm strong? Wouldn't that mean I became strong for nothing?"

At first, he wasn't part of the Calamity Mercenary Group; he was wandering on his own, causing chaos everywhere.

Later, because there were too many complaints and he provoked the Star Spirit Clan, the Ascension Nine of the Star Spirit Clan mobilized to surround and kill him.

To survive, he had no choice but to join the Calamity Mercenary Group and work for them.

Over these years, he had done many dirty jobs.

He had no complaints and, instead, enjoyed it.

He made his move because he had enough experience in dealing with the weak.

"Hehe, first generation—"

A special smile appeared on Heng Suan's face, a cruel one.

"I wonder if killing a first generation feels any different."

"I'm already looking forward to it!"

"By the way, has the elite squad to deal with the first generation been selected yet?" Heng Suan said to the Ascension Nine behind him.

The Ascension Nine behind him couldn't help but complain.

Damn.

You, an Ascension Nine, are launching a sneak attack and still need an elite squad to attract attention.

Too sinister!

"It's already prepared!"

The next second, a team of Ascension Sixes charged straight at Ye Su.

The leader gritted his teeth.

Damn it.

This is lethal.

The first generation is truly tough.

I don't know if there's any hope of killing him, but I hope I can survive!

Swish—

Amidst the flickering light, they quickly approached Ye Su.

Ye Su watched them without making a move.

"So arrogant, not even wearing Battle Armor?" the Ascension Six team shouted angrily.

Little did they know...

Just as their voices fell, a rift appeared silently behind Ye Su.

An expert was launching a direct sneak attack.

"Despicable!"

Hu Gang's scalp tingled.

An Ascension Nine sneak attack?

The Calamity Mercenary Group was shameless to the extreme.

In this situation, he didn't know if he could save Ye Su.

Just as Hu Gang began to move, a sword light arrived first despite being launched later.

Zhang Huai had intercepted Heng Suan.

But he had only barely blocked the strike.

If the battle continued, Ye Su would likely not be able to withstand the aftermath.

No way around it.

Ascension Five is strong, but in a battle of Ascension Nines, they are just that fragile!

However, unexpectedly, in the next instant, a beam of light lit up, enveloping Ye Su.

This was the promotion beam of an Ascender!

"Good!"

The Ascension Nine of the Calamity Mercenary Group was overjoyed.

This Yao Race first generation was courting death.

In this kind of battle, especially a battle between Peak Great Clans, the Peak Great Clans had the ability to control the flow of timing.

Did you think you were on some wild battlefield outside?

Did you think you could pull a fast one in front of a Great Clan?

It was a disadvantage of having a low background; he simply didn't know the foundation of the Great Clans.

"Lock the clan's Luck!" a powerful figure in the Calamity Mercenary Group shouted.

Subsequently, the timing in this area was completely locked, making it difficult to flow!

At the same time, a massive Formation spanning several light-years appeared beneath the entire battlefield!

Lockdown! Lockdown!

The Calamity Mercenary Group specialized in Formations.

At this moment, timing was locked, Spiritual Qi was locked, and space was locked.

Even the Ascension Technique was in a state of stagnation!

"Damn it, they brought out their trump card!" an Ascension Nine of the Calamity Mercenary Group roared.

The Formation was still extending and replenishing!

"Suppress Spirit!"

Strange patterns were operating.

The functions of the psionic armor began to fail and stutter.

The spirit net was also affected.

Although it could transmit information, the ability to mobilize the surrounding Spiritual Qi failed.

That meant he couldn't instantly convert money in his account into physical square crystals!

"Absorb Qi!"

It continued.

The Calamity Mercenary Group had brought out the real deal.

This set of Formations was not set up casually; it was the handiwork of a Supreme Expert.

It had always existed in the lair of the Calamity Mercenary Group, only it was brought out today.

With the "Absorb Qi" operating, the functions of the Blood Qi Heavy Armor were hindered.

Functions like the blood qi Domain and blood qi defense experienced temporary failure.

Even the circulation of blood qi within the Ascender's body was affected.

Their overall combat power began to drop.

"This time, the Yao Race first generation will surely die!"

"My Calamity Mercenary Group's foundation is out; whatever other means your Yao Race has, bring them all out!"

Hu Gang was panicked at first.

Now, he was not panicked at all.

Oh.

Is that it?

Then... let me show you our foundation!
