Chapter 558

A giant windstorm appeared over the sky and condensed into a blade. It carried pressurized air and powerful mana.

*BOOM!*

The magical defensive formation shook once more. The old man threw a large brown crystal in front of him. He rapidly sucked in the Earth Mana inside it and channeled it into the formation.

“Angel of Heaven!”

The old lady shouted. She insta-cast a spell and a huge figure appeared up in the sky. It was a beautiful woman with kingdom toppling facial features. She looked down at the army coldly with disdain.

“Old hag, there’s no use showing us your appearance in your youth,” Julianne sneered.

That was right. This beautiful figure was the old lady back at her prime. Now, she was old and an Earth Mage.

“Oh, soldiers. Do you pity a drink with me?” the beautiful figure asked.

She exuded a powerful charm that hooked the heart of the weak-minded mages. They instantly forgot their siege and stared at her as if she was the only thing in the world.

“Slice your necks, and I shall reward you with my love…”

Some of the enraptured soldiers regained themselves, but many of them were still in the effect of the spell. The mages near them tried to wake them up, but it was useless. They were moths walking towards a flame.

The mages raised the knives and daggers they kept on their person. It was supposed to be used to defend themselves if they ran out of mana.

Some of them don’t have knives, and they attempt to steal from others.

“Go on… You shall taste my body after you prove your loyalty…”

The three envoys watched it happening and didn’t do anything.

“Battalion Commanders, take note of those who are affected by the spell!” Otor ordered.

The 10 Lightning Arch Mages nodded and looked at the soldiers before engraving their faces into their minds.

Suddenly, a mage couldn’t resist it anymore. He raised his knife on his neck and braced himself. He stared at the beautiful figure lovingly.

“Second Formation!” Julianne shouted.

The two envoys stood beside her and formed a triangle.

A large black and sinister eye appeared in the sky. It stared at the mages and caught their attention. Compared to the beautiful figure, the black eye was more attractive.

“It’s you! The Imperial Sister of the Trunden Emperor!” the old lady shouted in alarm.

There was only one person who could use the light and darkness elements in the Trunden Empire. It was none other than Julianne Desert, the emperor’s beloved blood sister.

“Too late. Your petty tricks mean nothing to my second formation. We could act as a single entity if we wanted to at this state,” Julianne explained proudly.

Julianne flicked her fingers, and the mages were pulled out from their stupors. They immediately looked around in confusion before horror appeared on their faces as the events that transpired replayed in their minds.

“I…”

The old lady lost all of her courage. She finally recognized the trio. There were five of them, and no one could stop them when they worked together.

Their teamwork was impeccable to the point where they could take on six Earth Mages with their team of five. You should not forget that Earth Mages were very powerful.

Adding one more to one side meant a decisive victory. The only reason the two Earth Mages could last this long against them was because of the powerful magical defensive formation. Without it, they could only flee.

Even the old man, who was controlling the formation, grimaced. He didn’t think about delaying time anymore. He only wanted to flee.

“I guess it’s time for me to attack?” Lawrend asked and faintly smiled.

The old man turned his head and stared at Lawrend. He instantly realized his identity.

“The Trunden Empire’s prided formation, three out of the Five Combination Team, and the king! Run! Our defeat is determined!” the old man shouted and quickly flew out of the city.

“Ember, stop him,” Lawrend ordered.

“Yes, Master.”

Ember bowed, and large phoenix wings appeared behind her. She flapped them and disappeared from her current position. She then appeared in front of the old man even though he was already several kilometers away.

“Do you dare to keep running?” Ember asked and raised her chin arrogantly.

She naturally looked down at this old man. She believed she could eventually become a Heaven Mage, so she felt superior to this old Earth Mage.

“I knew it! The king wasn’t stupid to return and counterattack without sufficient guarantees!” the old man shouted in horror.

He suddenly realized there were five Earth Mage level characters in this place, and do not forget the mage army consisting of High Mages.

“Of course, I’m not stupid.”

Lawrend flew behind the old man. His blue mage cloak fluttered in the wind together with his red hair. Both he and Ember looked like siblings when their features were compared to each other.

“Have mercy! I only have several centuries to live!”

The old man was truly terrified. He was confident in his own abilities but not against the prodigious king. His fame was well known in the empire. Many sighed at their inability to acquire such a talented mage.

“I have wanted to test out a new spell. Do your best to defend yourself,” Lawrend said coldly.

He didn’t care about the old man’s pleas. An Earth Mage could live for 2,000 years, and a few centuries were still a lot. Who was he to care about him then?

The old man realized he could not escape. He faced Lawrend and hardened his resolve.

Meanwhile, the old lady also tried to run, but the three envoys were there to stop her. She wasn’t even a combat-oriented light mage.

She was a healer, and the only reason she knew the spells she used earlier was because she had a lot of free time to learn other spells.

“Surrender, and we won’t hurt you,” Julianne said.
