Chapter 264
The [Viridescent Flower] was omnipresent . Enchanted green vines meandered about the battlefield unpredictably while lovely and delicate green flowers blossomed on them, resembling an ink wash painting, elegant and beautiful .

Surprisingly, there was a wide variety of flowers . There were radiant chrysanthemums, beautiful peonies, ravishing plum flowers, and elegant orchids among others . They blossomed on the meandering green vines, blending in harmony .

The flustered members of the A-1 unit calmed down . Only they knew that the different types of flowers had different meanings to them .

The chaotic battle scene immediately became clear and orderly, sharply increasing their offensive threat .

The blood elementalists quickly felt the change in the situation . If they had previously compared their situation to being in a pool of quicksand, then their current situation could be compared to being in a meat grinder .

Their opponent’s offensive execution was clear and precise while their own offense was often disrupted .

From the three blood elementalists’ perspectives, the green vines had become exceptionally scary, resembling a monster that had countless tentacles .

In the blink of an eye, there were several wounds on their bodies . Even though these wounds were not fatal, they were enough to make the blood elementalists felt a strong sense of danger .

How did the A-1 unit become so powerful?

The blood elementalists found it very difficult to accept reality . They knew about the A-1 unit before and had even had several interactions with them before becoming blood elementalists . The three of them had been brimming with confidence before this battle as they’d known about the A-1 unit’s fighting capabilities .

Despite that, what happened during the battle gave them a huge shock .

How did the A-1 unit become so strong?

A blood elementalist who could no longer hold on hurriedly sent out a signal to request support .

"It’s a pity . " the red-dressed girl sighed faintly as she watched the battle from afar . Similarly, she could see the terrible situation Tian Kuan was in right now .

Yan Hai was startled . He asked, "Miss, what’s there to be pitied?"

"I’m pitying Tian Kuan," the red-dressed girl replied with a casual tone .


"Sir Tian Kuan?" Yan Hai was startled again . "Don’t tell me Miss feels that Sir Tian Kuan will lose this fight?"

Yan Hai had a deep fear of Tian Kuan . He saw with his own eyes how Tian Kuan did the impossible . From his perspective, Sir Tian Kuan’s powers were deep and unmeasurable . He also possessed terrifying schemes . How could an individual that possessed both brawn and brains lose?

Even though the battle had entered a deadlock, the blood elementalists’ side had not yet shown any signs of defeat . Why would Miss assert that Sir Tian Kuan would face defeat?

Deep down, Yan Hai did not want Sir Tian Kuan to lose . He felt that Sir Tian Kuan had treated him quite well .

"Do you know what we need the most right now?" the red-dressed lady suddenly changed the topic .

Yan Hai did not know if the ‘we’ that Miss mentioned referred to the god elementalists or her and Sir Tian Kuan . He did not dare to ask and put on an attentive appearance .

"It’s a matter of heart . " the red-dressed girl’s eyes glittered like the stars in the night sky . "When the elementalists train, they consolidate what they have learned at every step . They have the talent needed to progress steadily . Having this talent allows them to start from a higher point; however, even with talent, they still diligently work hard . Persistent effort overcomes all difficulties . For the path of a god elementalist, it’s a completely different case . We don’t talk about talent . It doesn’t matter even if your body is scarred and battered . We travel between life and death, walking on a tightrope . We need the power of understanding . Life and death are unpredictable . The essence of the path of a god elementalist is to develop his or her mind . "

Yan Hai did not really understand what Miss was saying, but he knew that she was trying to teach him something . He felt extremely grateful and replied respectfully, "Your lowly servant will always bear Miss’s words of wisdom in mind!"

"This realization of mine came about accidentally . " The red-dressed girl smiled . "It is thanks to Tian Kuan; without him, how could I have come up with these words of wisdom?"

Yan Hai’s face was filled with shock . He did not know how Miss’s realization was linked to Sir Tian Kuan; however, he did know that he himself was too low-leveled . Right now, he still found it very difficult to understand these profound and mysterious words, but he had a feeling that Miss’s words contained extremely powerful knowledge that might be of great help to him in the future .

He did not dare to lose focus and kept repeating Miss’s words in his mind, without missing a single one .

The red-dressed girl returned o her usual demeanor and chuckled . "However, Tian Kuan is a ruthless and determined individual . He definitely will not admit defeat easily . "



"Miss, should we…" Yan Hai hesitated for a while before he continued speaking . "Provide some assistance to Sir Tian Kuan?"

"Assistance?" The red-dressed girl shook her head and replied, "He doesn’t need assistance . "

Yan Hui shut his mouth .

The red-dressed girl cast a glance at Yan Hai and continued, "Tian Kuan’s resolution must have wavered because of his injuries . That man from the Infantry Division was indeed an extraordinary individual . Tian Kuan must have already returned to his senses . If he wants to continue progressing, he must win this battle . Otherwise, he is destined to die . "

Upon hearing these words, Yan Hai was dumbstruck . He asked again, "Why can’t he make a comeback?"

"Because this is the path he chose . " The red-dressed girl was lost in thought . "He always put his life on the gambling table . It is because of his determination that he was able to make it so far . With his determination, he was able to survive the rounds of blood refinement . If he escapes, he will lose his determination and the gamble, so the next time he carries out blood refinement will be the day he dies . "

The red-dressed girl spoke the last sentence with absolute certainty .

Yan Hai was blown away . He felt that the path of a god elementalist was profound and mysterious .

"There is something that you must remember," the red-dressed girl said faintly .

Yan Hai hurriedly bowed his head respectfully and replied, "Please enlighten your lowly servant . "

"You have to complete the path you chose even if it’s going to kill you," the red-dressed girl said plainly .

A shiver went down Yan Hai’s spine . These words were enlightening . He seemed to have realized something . The blood in his body began to boil, something that he had never felt before . Yan Hai stood on the spot and did not move a single inch of his body, resembling a wooden statue .

The red-dressed girl cast a glance at him, then withdrew and shifted her gaze to the battle in the distance .



Hiding in the dark, Tian Kuan’s face was ashen .

The battle he’d expected to be an absolute victory suddenly entered a mysterious deadlock . Before the battle, he had emphasized Ai Hui . He felt that Ai Hui was the most threatening individual in the A-1 unit . As long as he could get rid of Ai Hui, the rest were just a mob that would fall like dominoes . In the end, he did not expect the most threatening Ai Hui to fall into a trap while the rest of the A-1 unit, whom he had previously regarded as a mob, erupted and put up a strong fight .

Should he take action himself?

Tian Kuan’s face was filled with uncertainty, unable to make a decision . There were still four blood elementalists beside him . Should they take part in the battle?

He had invested a lot this time around . He already felt that it was overkill to use eight blood elementalists against a mere A-1 unit; however, the eventual outcome was completely outside of his expectations .

He did not intend to reveal himself . Yu Mingqiu was like a sharp sword that hovered in the sky, waiting to strike at any moment . Tian Kuan had personally witnessed Yu Mingqiu’s prowess . He did not want to give his life for Yu Mingqiu to test his arrows .

Yu Mingqiu being caught up by the blood birds in the sky was a God-given chance to Tian Kuan . It was the reason why he had planned this operation . Furthermore, for the sake of this operation, he had deployed a total of twelve blood elementalists . The rest of the blood elementalists were carrying out their respective missions in various parts of Central Pine City .

The death rate of the blood elementalists matched well with what he had expected .

When people first became blood elementalists, their fighting capabilities would rise sharply; however, since they did not train with their new powers at all, they would not know how to use them . Even though their fighting capabilities were greater than those of the ordinary elementalists, they were too few . Sending forty-five blood elementalists into the enormous Central Pine City was like throwing a handful of sand into a lake; it disappeared in the blink of an eye .

At the moment, he could only sense the presence of twenty-eight blood elementalists .

It would not surprise him if the missing blood elementalists had been killed . He did not consider them to be of importance .

They were merely used to create chaos in Central Pine City .

What Tian Kuan did not expect was that there were some blood elementalists who escaped from the battle . They had disappeared into the woods outside of the city . If not for the fact that the battle was getting increasingly intense, Tian Kuan would not let them off . Right now, however, he did not have the time to pursue them .

This was a painful lesson for Tian Kuan . It was far too difficult for him to supervise forty-five people . He had underestimated the situation and also did not have the relevant experience to conduct such a strategy . The biggest reason for his failure was that he’d chosen an unfamiliar strategy at such a critical moment .



With Yu Mingqiu’s arrival, his plan was further disrupted .

The blood birds in the sky were supposed to play an important role in his plan . Central Pine City had never before faced a legitimate aerial threat . The sudden appearance of the blood birds would have been enough to cause devastating losses in the city .

He had not expected Yu Mingqiu to come and single-handedly clear out the sky above Central Pine City . Without the biggest, aerial threat, the survivors in Central Pine city were able to organize themselves and fight against the blood fiends . All of them were very experienced in dealing with blood fiends . Even though there was a huge number of blood fiends, the survivors did not collapse like Tian Kuan had expected .

This had also directly caused huge losses among the blood elementalists . Their enemy was not really powerful, but they had an advantage in terms of manpower .


It was all that goddamn Yu Mingqiu’s fault!


Tian Kuan cursed Yu Mingqiu an unknown number of times; however, at this point of time, no matter how much he cursed, it would not help the situation at all . Given the current situation, it was impossible to stop the operation halfway . He was somewhat vexed . He was far too anxious .

The plan of ‘treating the city as a piece of cloth’ needed nine golden needles to be nailed in nine specific locations . Right now, only one had been nailed and there were eight more left . He would have enough time to strike, but eight of his blood elementalists were currently being held up by the A-1 unit . If he gave up now, the eight blood elementalists would die for nothing .

Losing another eight blood elementalists would worsen his situation .

After hesitating for a while, Tian Kuan made his decision and gave the signal to attack .

The four blood elementalists hiding nearby him moved silently to the battlefront like four ghosts .

After devouring the blood crystal, the glow in Lou Lan’s eyes suddenly stopped flickering, following which, the bright glow in his eyes began to dim and become dark-red . His dark-red eyes made his pale-white mask calmer and more callous . At this moment, he was like a statue, not moving or making any noise .

There was no wind, but Lou Lan looked as if he was disintegrating into a gust, sweeping up a sandstorm .
