Everyone at the venue looked up at the sky, and cara after cara turned toward the horizon.
Why was there a helicopter here?
But the crowd hadn’t yet realized what was happening. There was no panic on their faces, only curiosity.
"Why is there a helicopter? Is this so new stunt the event team ca up with?"
"Don’t tell so big influencer is going to parachute down from the helicopter? I seem to rember a comic-con doing a big stunt like that once."
"Quick, quick! Get the caras ready! Prepare to capture the amazing mont!"
"..."
The crowd at the venue murmured among themselves, assuming the suddenly arrived helicopter was also part of the event organized by the hosts.
The thought that a big-na celebrity in historical costu might soon descend from the sky, suspended by wires from the helicopter like an ancient Immortal, seed pretty cool. They couldn’t help but feel a growing sense of anticipation, their faces alight with excitent.
While everyone was buzzing with discussion, the helicopter rapidly descended, hovering at a distance of twenty to thirty ters from the ground.
The gale-force winds from its rotor blades were already reaching the ground, causing the hems of the historical costus to sway in the turbulence.
In the crowd, Dong Xuanzi watched the helicopter descend from the sky. He clearly sensed two auras of Ascension within it and raised an eyebrow slightly.
’Based on their current actions, are they planning to have two Saint Experts parachute down from the helicopter to corner in front of everyone?’
’I didn’t expect them to act so brazenly.’
’There are so many caras and network devices here. Does the Donghua Governnt no longer care about the social impact?’
He had originally thought the Donghua authorities would first have their army quickly lock down the city district, disperse the crowd, and declare full martial law before sending in the Saints to act.
That would have certainly taken a considerable amount of ti. He might have only needed to survive one wave of containnt before having a high chance of disappearing again.
But now, if the Donghua authorities were going to disregard the consequences and have Saint Experts make their move in plain sight, things would get a little troubleso.
This represented a certain resolve and attitude from the Donghua authorities, proving they were willing to bear the cost of the impact and casualties just to subdue him.
In that case, things had beco a bit tricky.
Tangled up by Saints, with the army arriving shortly after—not even an Immortal could escape such a predicant.
’However, it’s not without a solution.’
’They’re having the Saints strike first, before the army has completed its encirclent. As long as I can deal with the biggest problem—the Saints—as quickly as possible, I can still turn the tables.’
’I don’t need to kill them. Just injuring them would be enough to guarantee my escape and turn this disaster into a close call.’
’By the ti the other Saints are free to act, I’ll likely have concealed my true form again.’
’Both of them seem to be young Saints. They probably haven’t yet grasped the profound mysteries of Harmonized True Qi. Looks like my luck isn’t so bad after all.’
Dong Xuanzi stopped in his tracks. He slightly altered his strategy, and his unremarkable eyes gradually grew sharp.
’It seems people like us haven’t shown our skills for too long. Did it make the Donghua authorities think a re two youngsters could stop ?’
"Look! Soone’s coming out of the cabin, but it looks like he’s not wearing a costu?"
Just then, the crowd saw the cabin door open. A young man in casual clothes leaned out, peering down at the ground.
’No costu, no "Immortal Qi"... could he just be a staff mber surveying the ground situation?’
Up in the helicopter, Yi Beidou’s gaze swept over the crowd on the ground, finally locking onto a nondescript middle-aged man.
"Target acquired," Yi Beidou said.
"Let’s land."
Behind him, Zhou Qingchen also leaned out, following Yi Beidou’s line of sight to lock onto the target’s position.
Then, under everyone’s watchful eyes, they took a light step and leaped out of the cabin.
In the venue, the minds of everyone who saw this scene instantly went blank.
’Wait?!’
’He... he jumped?!!’
’They don’t seem to be wearing any safety gear... and they just jumped from a height of over twenty ters?!’
The entire venue fell silent. Most people remained frozen, their cara equipnt still raised, recording the whole scene.
The next mont, however, soone shrieked, and people hurriedly scattered to avoid being accidentally hit by the two falling from the sky.
But there were also more professional photographers who, even amidst such a shocking and sudden event, remained as steady as Tai Mountain. Their lenses stayed fixed on the falling pair, tracking their movents and perfectly recording everything.
That was professionalism.
Although over twenty ters is high, it only takes a human body a second or two to fall that distance to the ground.
Of the two, Zhou Qingchen was Sword Bone Heaven-Born. His spirit was clear and his Qi was light. His body was filled with Pure Qi, causing him to be more affected by air resistance. His descent was slower, as if he were a true Immortal, slowly drifting down like a feather.
Yi Beidou, on the other hand, was far more direct and brutal. He was tall, his Demon Body was powerful, and his physical density was extrely high. As he fell, he was almost like a cannonball dropped from a plane.
So people farther away couldn’t help but close their eyes, seemingly unable to bear the brutal sight of shattered bones and splattered flesh they expected to see.
BOOM!!
However, the sound of flesh hitting the ground and bones shattering didn’t occur. Instead, a thunderous crash resounded.
Yi Beidou’s figure landed steadily on the ground. His body was slightly hunched and his knees were bent, resisting the terrifying impact of the fall.
The ground beneath his feet cracked, sending shattered stones flying. The shockwave of air sent everyone within a ten-ter radius staggering backward and scattering.
As for Yi Beidou himself, he was completely unhard.
His muscles bulged all over his body, his Qi and blood surging like a river. His ssy hair flew up toward the sky, and his eyes seed to crackle with electricity, icy cold yet as calm as a deep pool.
The Demon Body descended from heaven.
During his descent, Yi Beidou had already activated his body, entering a full combat state.
’Th-th-this...’
Everyone in the venue stared dumbfounded at the man who had fallen from the sky, feeling as if they were in a dream.
This was a scene that should only appear in dreams.
’He fell from over twenty ters, the ground itself exploded, but the man is completely unhard... Is that still a body of flesh and blood?!’
However, before anyone could even process their shock, they heard a roar that shook their very souls, like that of a Divine Dragon or a ferocious tiger, coming from sowhere in the crowd.
ROAR!!
Everyone whipped their heads around.
There, in the midst of the crowd, a plain-looking middle-aged man’s body suddenly swelled, and his skin beca wreathed in a seven-colored, swirling, hazy radiance.
Within the radiance, lifelike forms of a dragon and a tiger intertwined, as if acting as the man’s Protectors, possessing a power that could shake one’s soul.
Everyone present, dressed in their historical costus and trying their best to give off an air of Immortal Qi, had no idea that a true Immortal was hidden among them, completely unnoticed.
A true master does not show his form.
WHOOSH!!
The mont Yi Beidou landed, while he was still dissipating the terrifying impact force from his fall, Dong Xuanzi struck without hesitation.
With a light tap of his foot, his speed surpassed the limits of what a normal person’s retina could capture as he shot through the crowd to attack.
Seizing the opportunity while Yi Beidou was alone on the ground and his weakness was exposed, he intended to succeed in a single strike and resolve this mortal peril!
