Chapter 983: Killing the Holy Maiden ⚔️

Published: February 10, 2025

Seeing the figure of this woman, Ye Zhongming instinctively observed behind her. The posthumous child and the cavalry of Cloud Summit were still charging at the military formation of the Temple of Dawn, with no signs of this woman having passed through. This meant that she did not come here by killing, but rather by a method that both Ye Zhongming and the posthumous child on the city wall had not noticed.

Just this point alone was enough to prove how tricky this woman was.

After she spoke, the attacks from the city wall naturally wouldn’t stop. The once eighth-level corpse apes were surrounded and slaughtered in front of the city wall of Cloud Summit, and now they would not miss the opportunity to encircle and kill Yangos.

“Alas!”

The woman sighed slightly, pointing her crescent-shaped halberd at Yangos. A soft light enveloped the Evil Dragon, immediately blocking the attacks from the outside. At the same time, the halberd moved downward, and Yangos' massive body slowly began to descend to the ground.

“Kill her!”

Ye Zhongming said coldly. The attacks from the city wall that were blocked immediately split, with some targeting this woman. Meanwhile, the crossbows transported from Cloud Summit Villa, which were set between the arrow stacks, creaked and adjusted their direction, shooting rapidly towards her.

The woman holding the halberd narrowed her eyes, and with her other hand, she lightly pushed forward. An air vortex immediately appeared in front of her, blocking the incoming crossbow bolts, which were all caught in the swirling air, as if they were embedded in a target full of arrows.

Having heard about the powerful secret techniques of the Temple of Dawn, Ye Zhongming was now experiencing it firsthand.

Compared to the combat techniques and soul techniques of the posthumous child, the secret techniques of the Temple of Dawn were not a completely new path; they were just researched more thoroughly, extending and innovating upon the techniques.

Although the king zun said that the confidentiality of techniques in the Temple of Dawn was higher than that of the posthumous child, they also admitted that their level of technique was much stronger.

What this woman revealed was clearly not something the posthumous child could execute.

Due to the stark differences in civilization and development, a significant gap in levels had already emerged between the two sides.

“It’s the Holy Maiden!”

Even if they didn’t know much about their enemy, the king zuns could still recognize the second-in-command of the Temple of Dawn.

Once certain things began, they would be like a runaway dam that could no longer be stopped.

No one would deny the power of this Holy Maiden and the Evil Dragon; both were eighth-level beings! It was even said that the Holy Maiden was infinitely close to level nine.

If they encountered this woman normally, the king zuns would have run as far away as possible. They had no confidence in dealing with either the woman or the dragon alone, let alone both.

But now it was different; this woman and the dragon were isolated from the main forces of the Temple of Dawn, while the experts of the posthumous child were all present.

Moreover, that giant dragon was already injured!

On one hand, they fought alone; on the other hand, they had strong support. After breaking the mental shackles and daring to attack the Temple of Dawn, the king zuns saw another opportunity.

Several king zuns exchanged glances, then looked at Ye Zhongming, receiving approval from this spokesperson of Cloud Summit.

Immediately, Hongxiang and Ling Kun, the two eighth-level king zuns, along with Ye Zhongming, leapt down from the high city wall. After using the wall to gain momentum, they landed on the ground.

Kill her!

If they killed this Holy Maiden of the Temple of Dawn, they might have already won half of this war!

Not to mention Yangos, the Holy Maiden represented the faith of the Temple of Dawn to some extent, being the most influential person aside from the Holy Father. Countless citizens of the Temple of Dawn worshiped this woman.
