Bai Pu placed his hand on the horse's back and leapt off, directly charging at Lan Feng.

"I must practice my riding skills well in the future!"

Bai Pu silently vowed in his heart. The reason was simple—the feeling of riding a Blood Ring Warhorse was incredibly comfortable, especially on a vast battlefield. It could save a considerable amount of physical ability and time!

For instance, this Blood Ring Warhorse had a speed comparable to an Awakened with sixty or seventy points in Agility, and could maintain a high speed for a long time.

An Awakened with sixty or seventy points in Agility would at least be at Level 5 or 6 in elite standards.

But bear in mind, Awakened individuals can only surpass horses in short sprints; for long distances, warhorses still have the upper hand.

Bai Pu swung his Great Sword, and Lan Feng, without any weapon to deflect or parry, could only rely on his high agility to dodge.

However, Bai Pu's Advanced Level 8 Combat Specialization was not something so easy to dodge. The sword blade vibrated at high speed, simultaneously slashing out several illusory sword shadows, enveloping the three-meter range around Lan Feng.

Lan Feng's body flashed with a blue light, activating some kind of Evasion Skill. Her figure became as light as willow fluff, swaying along the violent gale stirred by Bai Pu's Great Sword, escaping unscathed from every slash!

Bai Pu's expression remained unchanged. It was quite normal for an opponent to counter his ordinary attacks with skills.

He blamed himself for being Awakened for too short a time and having learned too few combat skills! Altogether, he only had Wind-Stepping Slash, Unstable Shield, and Helical Throw.

In terms of attribute hard power and combat specialization, Bai Pu was no weaker than others. He was like a powerful but plainly designed armored vehicle with too few weapons equipped.

Yet, Bai Pu continued his intensive assault! He knew that such enhanced evasion skills wouldn't last long—usually, at most, for about ten seconds.

Lan Feng gritted her teeth, holding on, for she also had a reason to persist, as Emperor Gustav was already on his way in pursuit.

Lan Feng's initial plan was not to independently kill Bai Pu; she had the intention of assisting Emperor Gustav in killing (or forcing the departure of) Bai Pu. Even if she couldn't claim all the battle merits, she could at least share some.

The exploration of the Spirit Realm by the Awakened was all for the sake of becoming stronger, for personal gain!

There was no "we're all Huaxia university students" sentimentality to consider, sacrificing one's interests for others—such Awakened individuals would be fools.

Thus, if Bai Pu didn't have a forced departure tool and died at the hands of Emperor Gustav, he had nobody to blame.

Similarly, if Lan Feng didn't have a forced departure tool and was slain on the spot by Bai Pu, Bai Pu wasn't to be blamed either!

In a word, each by their own skills.

However, Lan Feng had overlooked the presence of the Longxiang Squad.

Originally, with the Longxiang Squad's defection, they were already under the siege of Blood Ring Soldiers and had no leisure to deal with Lan Feng.

But Bai Pu's arrival instantly changed that situation! With the fluctuations of the Primordial Heart spreading, the curse seals on the Blood Ring Soldiers were erased.

Following that, Bai Pu's aura as a Plague Mother spread, causing these newly liberated Mutants to scatter and flee.

The three members of the Longxiang Squad suddenly had free hands and immediately set out against Lan Feng.

Longxiang laughed heartily, "Lan Feng, the beautiful lady, you better use your forced departure tool and leave immediately! The Ma Family in the Xiliang Region couldn't possibly be without a forced departure tool for the mid-level Spirit Realm."

Lan Feng pressed her lips tightly, keeping silent. Taking advantage of the ongoing duration of her evasion skill, she had already distanced herself by dozens of meters from Bai Pu. As she retreated, she nocked an arrow to her bow, drawing it back to release another icy blue arrow.

However, the same technique wouldn't affect a Saint twice. Bai Pu had anticipated this and directly lifted two Blood Ring Death Plagues, hurling them in advance to collide with and detonate the Frost Flower Arrow!

The two Blood Ring Death Plagues froze into ice sculptures, crashing to the ground, their bodies shattered into pieces.

Longxiang's body flashed with red luminescence, activating a Charge Skill and stunning Lan Feng for a second! Then, firmly stomping one foot on the ground, a ring of silver-white Thunderbolt Qi Force spread out, slowing Lan Feng down.

Bai Pu strode forward, as if a mountain was moving.

Dragging his Great Sword, he took a few steps to reach Lan Feng's face, kicking forcefully against the broad side of the blade, leveraging the acceleration for a fierce and quick upper Slash!

Lan Feng could only raise her bow back to block—judging by her expression, it was clear she was quite unwilling, but she had no choice, as using her body to block without the bow wasn't an option!

Sven, the Blood Ring General, had just perished at Bai Pu's hands; already, his death illustrated just how brutal Bai Pu's Chainsaw Greatsword was!

With a crisp cracking sound, Lan Feng's icy blue Great Bow broke in half. She felt an immense force smash into her, like a mountain, causing her to stagger back.

Bai Pu stepped forward, delivering an expressionless straight punch to Lan Feng's flat, well-toned waist! Lan Feng hunched forward, clutching her stomach as she retreated, coughing up blood foam.

Bai Pu delivered quick successive kicks, finishing with an upper slash, the mighty force sending Lan Feng floating into the air.

At some point, a dense Blood Shield had gathered on Bai Pu's body surface! The shield quivered slightly, its thickness intimidating, yet also carrying an implicit threat of explosion.

[Unstable Shield]!

Lan Feng felt this threat too. She finally closed her eyes in resignation as her figure slowly faded away and disappeared.

Of course, to the eyes of an Awakened, they could see Lan Feng using a forced departure tool to return, but in the eyes of the Natives, it appeared as if Lan Feng was killed on the spot by Bai Pu's upper Slash, her corpse lying on the ground.

"Haha! Gangxin, greetings! We, the Longxiang Squad, formally apply to join the Swedish Rebel Army's faction. That little bit of help we just rendered is our pledge of allegiance! Qilin, come over quickly and make introductions!"

Longxiang laughed as he spoke.

"Wait a moment." Bai Pu said in a deep voice. He still assumed a power-up stance with his Great Sword, the energy of the Unstable Shield rapidly converging onto the sword's edge.

"Hey, we're allies, one of our own!"

Seeing Bai Pu facing his three companions, Longxiang's eyes widened.

With a higher Perception, Qilin turned his head, and his face changed dramatically, quickly dodging to hide behind Bai Pu!

In the distance, Emperor Gustav had already closed in to within dozens of meters! In his hand, at some point, had appeared a War Spear, its blood-colored light as sharp as an arrow, making even a glance cause an eye-stinging sensation!

Whoosh!

Suddenly, Emperor Gustav hurled out the War Spear.

[War Spear Attack]!

The whistling War Spear, wrapped in extremely sharp blood-colored Qi Force, continuously pierced through every obstacle in its path! Whether it was Blood Ring Soldiers, free Mutants, or Expeditionary Soldiers… everything in its trajectory was pierced, leaving an array of transparent large holes in their bodies!

Longxiang and Fengxiang both reacted, making diving saves to the left and right respectively! Clearly, they intended to avoid this fearsome War Spear.

As the War Spear flew towards them, Bai Pu suddenly swung his Chainsaw Greatsword, sending a blood-colored Sword Qi several meters long to meet it head-on!
