Chapter 250 – Heavenly Manifestation, The Supreme Alliance Leader's Request?

The area spanning several kilometers around the apartment was completely evacuated, with numerous citizens dispersed by the Star Martial Police Department.

Rows of police cars passed by, setting up barricades as departing citizens moved in groups, occasionally glancing back at the sky.

High above, the standoff continued…

“As expected of the Supreme Alliance Leader, your strength is truly remarkable.”

Ye Fan clasped his hands calmly, sensing the fluctuations of Star Power around him as the aftershocks from their earlier finger technique clash continued to reverberate.

The area was severely affected, with elemental disturbances in the high-altitude air currents.

Whoosh—

Torrential rain poured down.

Dense dark clouds enveloped the apartment, with various anomalies manifesting centered around the Police Inspector’s residence.

Thunder and fire filled the sky as heavy rain fell.

But before reaching the ground, the precipitation transformed into hail, temperatures plummeting abruptly as these abnormal celestial phenomena continuously emerged…

The Supreme Alliance Leader stood with hands behind his back, maintaining his usual composure, unwavering as his robes billowed in the fierce wind!

A terrifying pressure descended!

“The Celestial Venerable Realm is indeed extraordinary.”

Lin Dong’s expression turned grave as he watched the Supreme Alliance Leader before him, his tension unprecedented, completely devoid of his earlier nonchalance.

“The gap is too vast, indeed not something martial arts can bridge.”

He murmured softly, extending his right hand while staring at his fingertips, recalling the details of their earlier confrontation with lingering fear.

One must understand.

The Great Wilderness Sky-Imprisoning Finger belonged to the Emperor-Rank Martial Art.

A reward transmitted by the system, representing the pinnacle of technique.

A single finger could imprison heaven and destroy earth.

Capable of handling almost any situation!

Yet now, facing Meng Tianxuan.

He couldn’t even muster the slightest resistance?

The gap between Celestial Venerable and Earth Venerable was immense.

This wasn’t due to lack of skill.

But rather because the Supreme Alliance Leader was overwhelmingly powerful, directly breaking techniques through brute force, relying on nearly boundless Star Power to completely extinguish the Great Wilderness Sky-Imprisoning Finger’s might!

“Absolute force overwhelms all techniques. Continuing like this… refined skills become useless.”

Lin Dong sighed.

Emerging from his thoughts, he exchanged glances with the others, sharing tacit understanding as they prepared for their next move.

The current disparity was too great.

As Qin Yang’s incarnation with shared consciousness, he would never fight unprepared battles – if they could leave, they should!

There was no need to exhaust themselves against this person!

With this realization, the seven members of the Exploding Heavens Gang reached mental clarity, turning to depart.

“Truly worthy of being the Supreme Alliance Leader, your prowess is exceptional. We shall take our leave today.” Ye Fan clasped hands in polite farewell, preparing to depart after speaking.

But as they began to move,

A low shout suddenly erupted behind them.

“Hold.”

Meng Tianxuan’s command halted them as he raised his palm, releasing Starforce Ribbons within his Three-Inch Palm. This divine ability similarly approached the Space Law, containing vast spaces within a palm’s span, directly sealing the spatial region.

The vast sky darkened ominously.

“Did this Alliance Leader say… you could leave?”

Hum!

Mysterious laws congealed!

The turbulent rain in the high sky abruptly ceased, droplets suspended mid-air as if time had frozen solid.

………

“Huh? The rain stopped?”

Evacuating citizens followed police instructions toward shelters outside the apartment area, moving in groups when they suddenly noticed the rain sounds ceasing.

The earlier downpour had stopped…

Yet the moisture on their faces felt contradictory to normal circumstances.

They bewilderedly lowered their umbrellas, gazing up at the suspended raindrops, only then realizing with horror that the confrontation above had literally frozen the rainfall in place!Under the influence of this terrifying Law Power,

even though they were hundreds of meters away from the sky, these citizens were still affected.

Everyone’s movements became extremely sluggish, their legs feeling as if filled with heavy lead. Each step forward felt exhausting and laborious.

“Enough, let them leave.”

High above, Lin Dong frowned, looking down at the struggling citizens as he said gravely, “This matter is between you and me. Do not involve the innocent.”

“Naturally, I would have let them leave even without your reminder. The Supreme Alliance will not trouble innocent citizens… But since you’ve all come, why be in such a hurry to leave?”

The Alliance Lord stood with his hands behind his back, lowering his gaze calmly as he released the restraint on the citizens below:

“Once your Exploding Heavens Gang’s leader appears, everything can naturally come to an end.”

“Supreme Alliance Leader, must you be so stubborn?”

Ye Fan shook his head helplessly, “Must you see our leader in person?”

“Exactly!”

“Your Exploding Heavens Gang’s Jianghai Sword God participated in the Beast Tide battle, openly violating the Blood Spirit Contract. This matter cannot simply be dropped.”

Then, Meng Tianxuan turned to Qi Qingshan beside him and said:

“Moreover, you injured members of our Supreme Alliance and shattered Qingshan’s Dao Heart, leaving him with an eternal inner demon… Would it really be appropriate for you to just leave like this?”

“Alliance Lord, you’re being unreasonable here!”

Hearing this, Ye Fan frowned deeply, looking down at the rows of towering buildings below: “My junior brother, the Sword God, brought peace to Jianghai and protected this land… Is that wrong?”

He continued coldly: “Your adherence to outdated rules and stubborn defense of that Blood Spirit Contract is your business! What does it have to do with our Exploding Heavens Gang?”

“Besides, didn’t this whole matter begin… because of your Supreme Alliance?! You obstructed our junior disciples, and now you have the nerve to turn around and blame us?”

As his words fell,

each syllable struck at the heart with undeniable logic!

The Star Power in the wind dissipated slightly.

The Supreme Alliance Leader’s resolve wavered momentarily, his face showing hesitation as if pondering something, but he quickly suppressed it and continued blocking the Exploding Heavens Gang’s path.

Showing no intention of stepping aside…

“Bringing peace to the citizens of Jianghai is indeed a good deed.”

Meng Tianxuan clapped his hands slowly and said: “The Jianghai Sword God has noble aspirations. I once considered taking pity on him and recruiting him into the Alliance.”

He paused, then changed his tone, “But violating the Blood Spirit Contract is non-negotiable. Unless your leader comes out to talk and meets with me personally.

Otherwise, if he doesn’t show up today… you will all remain here…”

“Hah! Someone like you wants us to stay?”

Blade Emperor Ye Wuque sneered contemptuously at this, exchanging glances with other members of the Exploding Heavens Gang as they shared knowing smiles.

“What if we insist on leaving?”

Just then.

“Trying to leave?!”

Qi Qingshan suddenly spoke up, appearing deranged as his resentment amplified in his heart. He directly summoned a strand of Sword Qi to block their path.

“Why bother?””

Meng Tianxuan also shook his head, looking at Ye Fan before him as he patiently advised, “Seven Supreme experts – you must have traveled thousands of miles to appear here, making you the backbone of the Exploding Heavens Gang, right?”

“If you were to fall here, the Exploding Heavens Gang would suffer greatly! Such losses would be truly devastating…”

He said quietly:”This Alliance Lord shall grant one more opportunity.

If you would but summon your gang leader, all matters can be forgiven.”

“What say you?”

As the final words fell,

the Alliance Lord closed his eyes, awaiting the Exploding Heavens Gang’s response.

The patter of rain grew louder.

“Alliance Lord, you don’t understand us. Since our Exploding Heavens Gang has resolved to emerge into the world…”

Ye Fan gave a carefree laugh, “Why should we concern ourselves with life or death?”

Turning to the other six, he spoke calmly,

“Junior brothers! Since the Supreme Alliance won’t let us leave, we might as well stay!”

His words hung in the air.

The others nodded in agreement.

“Senior Brother speaks truth!”

Cold glints of blades appeared as killing intent permeated the air. The Exploding Heavens Gang members revealed fierce expressions, brandishing their weapons – all conveying the same meaning:

Fight to the death!

“Senior Brother is right! There’s no retreat in this battle. Since we’ve come, we seek not glory, but only clear consciences and no regrets.”

Lin Dong raised his arm, his gaze fixed on Qi Qingshan as cold energy erupted:

“Besides, we haven’t yet collected your treacherous life!”

“Heh, such grand aspirations,”

Qi Qingshan’s eyes were bloodshot as he sneered coldly, “Just wait until the Alliance Lord takes action! You’re merely courting death!”

“Ah, why must you be like this…”

Liu Wushuang watched the Exploding Heavens Gang members with complex emotions, observing their resolute expressions with a mixture of shame and frustration.

There was also some regret and inner conflict.

Ultimately,

while he was a member of the Supreme Alliance, he also felt guilty toward the Arrow God. Despite his efforts to mediate conflicts along the way, he ultimately couldn’t prevent this.

The battle was imminent.

What puzzled him was that the Alliance Lord hadn’t always been like this. Somehow, he had suddenly become more stubborn and fanatical.

“Strange…” Liu Wushuang’s eyes revealed contemplation.

Amid the standoff,

chaos erupted among the crowd below as numerous citizens fled amidst heated arguments, like underwater currents bursting forth – the situation had grown extremely chaotic!

…………

“Xuan Xuan, don’t be impulsive!”

Elder Li grabbed Li Zixuan’s arm, scolding angrily, “In this situation, going up there would be useless! I know you’re eager to protect your sect, but this isn’t the time!”

“But… I want to fight alongside my martial elders…”

Li Zixuan murmured in response, her gaze dimming as she looked at the sword in her hand, sinking into deep despair.

She had thought that after breaking through…

she would have the capability to help.

But now it seemed.

She was still far from adequate!

The gap was simply too vast. Before these old monsters of the Supreme Alliance, Innate Realm cultivation wasn’t even worth mentioning!

“Don’t worry anymore, Zi Xuan…”

Li Qinghe also reached out to hold her arm, shaking her head to stop her, “Right now, Martial Uncle and the others are buying us time. We should leave quickly. Staying here will only cause them trouble.”

“Then we really… can’t do anything at all…”

Li Zixuan’s voice was filled with sorrow as she looked up at her martial uncles and aunts in the sky. The pouring rain made them seem as distant as ever.

She had thought that after her breakthrough, she could lend a helping hand.

But now it appeared the gap remained immense.

Though she was just one step away from Grandmaster, she couldn’t even touch the tip of the iceberg of this world’s true power!

“There’s no way, Xuan Xuan. The battle above is too terrifying. All we can do is wait here.”Li Qinghe placed a hand on her shoulder, offering comfort as she said, “This matter will pass eventually. You must have faith in our sect.”

Just then.

“Indeed, my disciple speaks wisely.”

A familiar voice came from behind.

Elder Li and the others turned abruptly at the sound.

It was Qin Yang.

At this moment, he emerged from the crowd, his expression calm and composed, parting the chaotic citizens as he slowly made his way toward Li Zixuan and the others.
