Chapter 62: Chapter 55: Leaving No Way Out

But after Zhang Ji arrived, things became much easier.

The strength of these three Grandmasters was far inferior to Duan Zichen’s, and Duan Zichen was someone Zhang Ji could kill in a single blow. That went without saying for these three.

Unless they were all wearing the same kind of armor as Xiong Mingxu, they were fated to be killed instantly.

Zhang Ji moved like a Spiritual Crane, flashing past the three Xian Mountain Sect Grandmasters. In the next instant, a hole appeared in each of their heads.

The remaining Xian Mountain Sect disciples sensed something was wrong. A few had already started to flee, which caused more to run.

On Zhang Ji’s side, after quickly dealing with the attackers, they also hastily gathered the disciples to board the ship and leave.

As the last disciple boarded, the ship began to move.

On deck, Zhang Ji asked Wang Quan, who had just finished a head count, "How many are left?"

"About three hundred. It all happened so suddenly, and it was hard to find cover here..." Wang Quan said, his expression grim.

"I see," Zhang Ji said after a moment of silence.

"You’ve mastered the Five Elements Unity?" Liu Shan suddenly asked from behind Zhang Ji.

"My master taught it to me before he died," Zhang Ji said with a nod.

Without Li Long’s guidance, it would have taken him much longer to comprehend it on his own.

"Ah Long and the Sect Leader are dead. The Five Elements Sect is now a dragon without a head. We are old, and Shen Han and Zhou Hao aren’t strong enough to command respect..." Wang Quan suddenly said to Zhang Ji, "Zhang Ji, your strength and status are both sufficient. Once we meet up with Elder Chen and the others, I think it would be best for you to take over the position of Daoist of the Five Elements Sect and serve as the acting Sect Leader."

Wang Quan had witnessed Zhang Ji’s power and understood just how crucial he was now. He was completely focused on tying Zhang Ji to the Five Elements Sect’s ship, terrified that Zhang Ji would leave to strike out on his own. So, he was making his position clear now, showing that he would definitely support Zhang Ji when the time came.

"I think that’s appropriate," Liu Shan also said with a nod.

Zhang Ji was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright."

The turn of events was beyond his imagination. He had suddenly skipped generations to become the Sect Leader, which left him slightly taken aback.

But this was no time for pleasantries. The Five Elements Sect truly needed a powerful martial artist to step up as its leader.

Even if it was just a symbolic role, it was indispensable. It would give everyone confidence.

So, Zhang Ji did not refuse.

He also began to consider how the Five Elements Sect should best move forward.

Just then, as if sensing something, he looked to the side.

An object trailing a long tail of fire was rapidly rushing toward the ship.

Its speed was too fast to estimate.

’A missile?’

’Or something else?’

’Why?’

’Can’t you just let us live?’

Anger and shock flashed through his mind.

Zhang Ji didn’t have time to think. In an instant, all the Yuan Qi around his body condensed as he fully unleashed the Five Elements Unity, entering the Divine Dragon stance.

At this moment, Zhang Ji was already shrouded in a layer of dazzling, azure light.

Before the astonished gazes of Wang Quan and Liu Shan, Zhang Ji slightly cupped his palms, brought them together at his side, and then suddenly thrust them forward.

"ROAR~!"

A massive, deep-blue Divine Dragon flew from Zhang Ji’s palms. At the same time, the surrounding seawater surged upward, forming scales around the Divine Dragon’s body as they flew toward the target together.

In the blink of an eye, they collided about a hundred meters from the ship.

"BOOOOOOM~!"

The blast wave surged, sending Zhang Ji and the others flying into the other side of the deck. Waves churned, and the ship rocked violently.

Zhang Ji’s Yuan Qi was completely depleted and his Spirit was drained. But at that very moment, he saw a second weapon descending from the sky.

"BOOOOM~!!"

A massive explosion erupted on the ship.

A short while later, the ship sank into the sea.

...

「In the conference room.」

"Well now, that was against the rules, wasn’t it!" Lin Kang said.

"Compared to watching a ’god on earth’ return to the Eastern Extreme Country and cause trouble for us, I think this was the best choice," Xiao Ning replied. "Besides, you didn’t stop me, did you?"

"It’s better for the Five Elements Sect to disappear completely," Yin Daiyu said.

She still hadn’t been able to forget the murder of her grandson. In her heart, the Five Elements Sect had to be utterly destroyed. That was why she had been the most ruthless in this operation against them, even more so than Xiao Ning, who had once been the target of an assassination attempt by Li Long.

If Liu Hetong hadn’t secretly sent a group of them away, she would have ensured that not a single trace of the Five Elements Sect’s legacy remained.

"We should send people to search. We need to see a body! Otherwise, how can anyone rest easy?" Lin Kang reminded them.

"There’s no way he could have survived that, right?" a scientist standing nearby muttered under his breath.

’He was hit by two missiles of that yield. The fact that the first one was intercepted is already outrageous. The second one exploded almost at point-blank range. How could he possibly not be dead?’

’His body was probably blown to bits!’
