Chapter 5306: The Grandmaster of Explosives

"These corpse puppets might have Fire Glaze buried inside them. Mu Jinghong probably intends to effortlessly use these corpse puppets to detonate the Fire Glaze, taking us all down with them."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding soldiers' expressions changed dramatically. They surged forward like a tide, positioning themselves in front of Duan Yue, displaying a fearless resolve. They were ready to act as a human shield, even if it meant becoming a wall of flesh, to block the Fire Glaze and protect His Majesty.

Duan Yue offered a faint smile, his expression still calm, "No need to be nervous. With me here, no explosive device can harm us."

Upon hearing this, Rong Qing immediately grew anxious. He quickly reached out, wanting to grab his willful Emperor.

He knew this fellow too well. Whenever there was danger, His Majesty, relying on his superior skills and audacious nature, was bound to act first, leaving his subordinates behind.

However, just as he reached out, he saw his Emperor had indeed leaped into the air.

With a single blink, everyone's eyes blurred. They then saw him, holding a dagger shimmering with purple light, instantly teleport from among them to directly in front of the corpse puppets.

Young Master Qi Ba's heart nearly stopped. His face turned ashen in an instant.

Rong Qing, with a fierce leap, immediately tried to pursue Duan Yue.

Unexpectedly, he crashed with a "thud" against a defensive barrier, pitifully bumping his head and directly being bounced back by a force, falling to the ground.

"My goodness!" Rong Qing's handsome face turned dark. He whirled around, glaring at Duan Yue's retreating figure.

This guy was truly infuriatingly unreliable!

He had directly erected a defensive barrier around them to prevent them from following.

Seeing this, Zhuo Yan's entire face changed color. She urgently cried out, "You all, quickly go help! How can he resist alone?"

"There are over a dozen corpse puppets here, which means there might be over a dozen Fire Glaze orbs!"

"Shadow City once used three Level 9 Fire Glaze orbs to annihilate a small city, killing over a thousand cultivators. This is not a joke."

"The power of this Fire Glaze is immense," Zhuo Yan said urgently. "The entire Shadow City might still have about twenty Level 9 Fire Glaze orbs in reserve."

"I suspect each of these corpse puppets might have a Fire Glaze orb buried within them..."

"Boom!" A towering blaze of fire instantly interrupted Zhuo Yan's incessant words.

Everyone felt the entire ground gently shaking. All of them swayed uncontrollably with the tremor of the earth.

Rong Qing's dark face then turned livid. He frantically pushed through the crowd of Three States soldiers, desperately charging forward.

But he was still blocked by the defensive barrier in front of him.

"Holy cow!"

A defensive barrier set up by a Transcendent God Realm master—who the heck could break it?

Outside, a blaze of fire permeated the air, making it impossible to see what was happening.

Rong Qing's heart suddenly sank. He roared in anger, "Don't just stand there dumbfounded! Quickly work together to break through this barrier!"

Their willful Emperor, he absolutely could not be harmed.

Just as everyone was frantically smashing at the defensive barrier Duan Yue had set up, like headless chickens, they heard Mu Feixia exclaim in surprise, "Everyone, don't panic! Look quickly!"

Everyone immediately turned their heads. Upon seeing it, their jaws nearly dropped in shock.

A snow-mountain-like eight-tailed celestial fox hovered in the air, swinging its eight tails left and right like toys, one after another, whipping all the teetering and crooked corpse puppets away.

Their willful Emperor was currently standing on the back of the eight-tailed celestial fox, holding a handful of transparent glaze beads, playing with them in his palm.

Completely unharmed!

Rong Qing let out a sigh of relief.
