After everyone looked at each other, they finally nodded one after another. Although they were rather hesitant, they still headed off into the distance.
Xiang Tian glanced at Li Du beside him, a bitter smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Hugging his arms, he said, "From here on out we’ll have to fight side by side. Before I got your consent, I already arranged everything for you. You’re not going to be mad, right?"
Li Du shook his head helplessly. After shrugging, he finally said, "Even if I wanted to get mad, would I still have the chance?"
"Besides, I’ve already stayed here with you now, which proves that what comes next is something we have to face together. So no matter what happens, in the end we still need to let bygones be bygones."
Hearing this, Feng Tianci gave a helpless smile.
Song Tianyang, in front of them, didn’t bother with them at all. He spoke in an icy voice, asking, "I’ll ask you one last time: where exactly is Wang Zhan? Tell that bastard to get out here and see me right now!"
"If it weren’t for that bastard, how could I have ended up like this?"
"That damned guy, does he plan to be a turtle with its head tucked in? The reason I came here is to kill Wang Zhan as fast as possible!"
Feng Tianci and Li Du exchanged a glance. Li Du pointed straight at the core area of the storm and said, "I’m sure you can tell as well—since all of us are still here, that proves Wang Zhan is hiding in that core area. And this storm in front of us was created by him."
"If you want to find him, just go straight into the storm. Maybe you’ll even get to meet Wang Zhan."
"If you really have the ability, you can completely ignore the terrain and kill Wang Zhan inside the storm!"
Hearing this, Song Tianyang turned his head to look at the core area of the storm. He clenched his teeth and slowly said, "You mean that damned bastard is actually inside the storm?"
"That’s right. I have no reason to lie to you."
Off to the side, Feng Tianci folded his arms and said, "Besides, we don’t even know what exactly is going on here. Even the two of us can’t explain it clearly. So we definitely won’t throw our lives away for nothing! The only reason we’re still here is to wait for Wang Zhan to come out and regroup with us."
Song Tianyang narrowed his eyes slightly. How could he know that Li Du and Feng Tianci just wanted to find an excuse to trick him into going in? Right now, because of the storm, visibility around them was extremely low. Don’t mention finding Wang Zhan here— even just spotting a human figure was incredibly difficult.
So as long as they could get Song Tianyang to step into the storm, they could avoid a fierce battle.
More importantly, who knew if Song Tianyang might just die inside the storm?
The chances of him finding Wang Zhan in there were really too low.
The next second, Song Tianyang’s face suddenly darkened a lot. He abruptly raised his fists and charged straight at the two in front of him.
His speed was astonishing.
Seeing this, Feng Tianci and Li Du didn’t react in time. They had thought Song Tianyang was already planning to enter the storm to look for Wang Zhan, but this bastard actually turned around and came for them instead.
"You damned bastards, so you were deliberately trying to trick me, huh? I don’t care whether Wang Zhan is really in there or not—what I need to do now is take care of you two first!"
"I know you’re friends of Wang Zhan. If I kill you, I’m sure Wang Zhan won’t feel too good about it either! I just want Wang Zhan to understand that when you screw up, you have to pay the price and face the consequences yourself!"
Feng Tianci gritted his teeth hard, but neither he nor Li Du hesitated. They immediately made a move against Song Tianyang.
In fact, when that massive explosion happened just now, the two of them were fully qualified to stand in front of Wang Zhan, because their strength was right there for all to see.
But Wang Zhan hadn’t let them act. The two of them knew very well that was because Wang Zhan was protecting them.
Now that another powerful enemy had appeared, how could they possibly keep hiding behind Wang Zhan?
With that in mind, the two of them quickly charged at Song Tianyang.
In the blink of an eye, the three were already tangled together.
But right after they clashed, Li Du was the first to be sent flying back. His expression turned much uglier.
He staggered back several steps, then clutched his chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and said, "I didn’t expect this guy’s strength to be this terrifying. I can’t even last a single move under his hands. Is this guy even human, or is he a demon?"
"He should be another person who’s been Demonized, right?"
Feng Tianci was still trading blows with Song Tianyang, but from Song Tianyang’s techniques, he seemed to catch a whiff of the same smell as Luo Junce.
Song Tianyang, beside them, said coldly, "So what if I’m human or demon? I’ve already become a zombie. Of course, the reason I ended up like this is all thanks to Wang Zhan! Since that’s the case, I definitely won’t let this go. I’ll make him pay the price he deserves!"
"I’ll make that damned bastard pay for what he’s done!"
Feng Tianci snorted coldly through his nose and said again, "Then at least see if you’ve got what it takes first! Die for me!"
Actually, Feng Tianci also had his own trump card, but since things had already reached this point, he had no choice but to use it now.
Streams of light streaked through midair, slamming rapidly down onto the ground.
At the same time, Song Tianyang quickly raised his hand, and as those streaks of light landed on his armor, sharp, piercing sounds rang out one after another, but even so, the armor on his body didn’t show the slightest change.
Seeing this, Song Tianyang’s heart gradually understood.
So this guy in front of him really had already been Demonized, which meant that the current Song Tianyang seemed to be a notch stronger than Luo Junce.
Because Luo Junce had already been gravely wounded before, and the demon in Luo Junce’s body still couldn’t fully merge with his flesh right away, Luo Junce’s strength was not all that terrifying.
But Song Tianyang was different. His own strength was clearly much higher than Luo Junce’s, and on top of that he had now completely fused with the demon in his body, so his power would naturally receive a significant boost.
Yet even knowing this, at this moment Feng Tianci and the other absolutely could not retreat easily.
In the next second, Li Du once again stepped in front of Feng Tianci, clashing head‑on with Song Tianyang.
With a violent collision, Song Tianyang’s figure was sent flying like a kite with its string cut, crashing heavily into the ground.
Seeing this, Feng Tianci hurriedly ran over to his side, quickly asking, "How are you? Can you still hold on?"
Li Du wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then tried to stand up to face Song Tianyang again.
But Feng Tianci could tell that Li Du was already seriously injured; how could he possibly withstand Song Tianyang’s attacks?
If they kept going hard against him, the one who’d suffer for sure would be Li Du.
Thinking of this, Feng Tianci gritted his teeth hard, just as he was about to risk it all against Song Tianyang.
He saw Song Tianyang suddenly flick his sleeve, as if he had sensed something within the storm, and immediately rushed toward the storm’s depths.
Feng Tianci, full of doubt, asked, "What’s up with this guy? Isn’t this the time he should be pressing the attack? The two of us are already at the end of our rope, he has every chance to finish us off completely."
"But he didn’t chase us down. Could it be because he saw Wang Zhan’s silhouette in the storm?"
Li Du clutched his chest as he continued, "Judging from Song Tianyang’s way of doing things, that should be it..."
"But there’s still a powerful enemy in front of Wang Zhan right now, so if Song Tianyang suddenly shows up, we really don’t know if he can hold on..."
"Should we go in and help?"
Feng Tianci just shook his head, then said directly, "We’d better not go help. I know Wang Zhan’s means, and there’s another expert at his side. As long as Wang Zhan can survive, that expert with him naturally won’t have any problem either."
"So there’s nothing we need to worry about right now, we just have to wait here patiently."
Li Du nodded and said nothing more.
Meanwhile, within the storm’s core area.
Wang Zhan and Sword Spirit were still searching for Luo Junce’s figure.
Suddenly, Wang Zhan’s eyes lit up. At once he rushed toward a certain silhouette. "I see him. Luo Junce really is still alive! As long as we kill him here, we can pull out of this place quickly!"
"This guy’s strength will recover faster and faster, so we have to kill him in one go before he returns to his peak state, otherwise he’ll definitely become our greatest obstacle in the future."
Sword Spirit clearly understood this as well. Obviously, the two were of one mind.
Just as they were about to move in, another figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
That is...
Seeing who had suddenly come over, a hint of gravity appeared on Wang Zhan’s face.
"Song Tianyang? How is this bastard still alive?"
Although Wang Zhan didn’t see Song Tianyang’s face clearly, he could sense his aura.
"Because I saved my life just so I could kill you!"
