"Let the Crown Guard Squad through!"
The warriors of the Su Clan and the Alliance of Small Races immediately stepped back, creating a passage.
The Hall People, who had a peak expert targeting Ye Zhongming, were taken aback. Is this even possible?
They wanted Delma to stay alive for the time being but aimed to eliminate other Lena People. Suddenly, with the Crown Guard Squad facing half the pressure, what if they broke through and escaped? If they contacted the Lena People, everything done today would be meaningless.
At that point, it would turn into a protracted legal battle and endless confrontations, both overt and covert.
Due to the sudden lifting of the blockade against the Crown Guard Squad by the Su Clan and the Alliance of Small Races, the Hall People were thrown into a bit of chaos as they hurried to block the advancing team.
Even if the Crown Guard Squad didn't flee, if they managed to join forces with Delma and that peak expert, the difficulty of eliminating them would multiply. In addition, the commander of the Crown Guard Squad was also a peak expert; three peak experts along with thousands of warriors would possess far greater power than when they fought individually.
The Hall People present had already suffered tremendous losses. After a few days of recovery, their condition improved somewhat, but some warriors remained unable to fight and needed to return to their clan for specialized treatment.
Moreover, the Crown Guard Squad was considered an elite fighting team of the Lena People. Whether in terms of equipment, coordination, or individual combat power, they were superior to the Hall People. Once the Su Clan and the Alliance of Small Races stopped assisting them, the Hall People would immediately feel the pressure.
Of course, this didn't mean they had no way to deal with the several thousand members of the guard squad, but preventing them from merging with Delma in such a short distance was somewhat challenging.
Just as the Su Clan and Alliance of Small Races began to retreat, the white dragon horse also abandoned its attack on the Lena peak expert and returned to Ye Zhongming's side.
In the sky, two peak experts seemed to unleash true fire, as a violent energy storm enveloped the area above, creating an atmosphere that made everyone too intimidated to look up.
On the ground, several peak experts from the Hall People had to step in personally to intercept the Crown Knight Order. However, Jie Su Ye Zhongming and the white dragon horse continued to harass them from the side.
"Your Highness, follow me!" The head of Delma's guards approached his master, having come to understand the situation. The three parties had their own intentions, all seeking the most advantageous circumstances for themselves, which was something they could utilize.
Now, with the Su Clan and the Hall People just having changed their strategies, it was the best time to escape.
Delma hesitated slightly.
If he could merge with the Crown Guard Squad before retreating, the chances would undoubtedly be greater. Furthermore, these subordinates had been with him for a long time and were powerful. He was somewhat reluctant to abandon them just like that.
He felt there was still a chance to depart while both sides remained wary of each other.
As long as he could hold on until reuniting with the main force of the Lena People, he would have the opportunity to turn the tide.
However, his hesitation cost Delma dearly.
Two shadows suddenly sprang up from unknown origins, appearing next to Delma and his guard captain, accompanied by several energy feathers. At the same time, some black threads shot out from the void, striking at both individuals.
Delma was taken aback; at this moment, there were still people targeting him?
The guard captain's expression tightened as he threw two weapons resembling dumbbells. One formed a large white hole in front of Delma, while the other landed in the place where the threads were densest, exploding and creating a viscous area that slowed down the threads, which seemed to blend into the night.
