Meanwhile, the situation continued going downhill for Purple Sabre Fairy. With Uncle Meng’s power activated, the four fire-breathing apostles were hot on his heels with their bodies clad in diamond armor.

Purple Sabre Fairy was struggling to defend himself in the air, with his signature purple plasma sabers whizzing across the sky. However, they were completely useless against that armor. On the other hand, the relentless flames continued to burn, torching his clothes to a crisp. It seemed like the balls of flame were about to envelop him at any time.

Old Cat observed the battle unfold and muttered, “Hai, just take a look at this. A moment ago, he was trouncing us. Now, look at the situation now. This is but a microcosm of life, filled with ups and downs. You can never truly predict anything in this world …”

Zoom! A plasma saber sliced across the sky and slammed right into Old Cat’s face. However, the assault was intercepted by the diamond armor, rendering the attack futile.

“I have already told you that your plasma saber doesn’t work against me. Why can’t you believe in me?” Old Cat sighed, “Why do you have to start throwing out punches the moment you arrive? Can’t we settle this over words instead of punches?”

A cheeky smile appeared on Uncle Meng’s face. With his dirty-yellow teeth revealed, he chortled, “Old Cat, you were the one who told them to fight you in the first place.”

“It’s me?” Old Cat shook his head in despair when he realized what had happened. However, he continued by saying, “But there’s still room for discussion if you went against my word and chose to settle it peacefully instead. Every single dispute in this world could have been resolved if both parties were willing to sit down and discuss peacefully. If we use facts and data to support our words, there’s nothing stopping us from an agreement …”

“Shut up!” Purple Sabre Fairy dodged the relentless flame attacks and shot another plasma saber at Old Cat out of pure anger. As expected, it simply bounced off the armor as if it were a child’s toy.

For some unknown reason, he started growing increasingly irritated the moment Old Cat opened his mouth. He just wanted to strangle this obnoxious cat to death.

However, he had no time to do that considering the battle in hand. With the tides turned against him, he decided to descend to the ground and continued the battle there. This would allow him to resume his fight with all three plasma sabers in his hand.

A frown also started to appear on Sonia and Li Tian’s face as they watched the battle unfold. The thought of leaving Purple Sabre Fairy alone there while they made their escape crossed their minds.

In their eyes, Old Cat and gang had already been synonymous with the world – invincible.

However, they realized that they had already been surrounded by the apostles working under Old Cat after just taking one step backward. With their bodies clad in diamond armor, a cold, misty frost began to appear at their foot. It was even spreading in their direction!

Things did not look good for them at all.

At this exact moment, a military transport airplane started whizzing across the sky and over their heads.

On board the plane was Lin Chen who had slung a black bag across his shoulders. The bag’s shape was particularly abnormal. It was extremely thin but it was neither too long or short. From the looks of it, it even resembled a sword.

He peered through the tiny windows on the plane and asked, “Are we there yet?”

“We have reached already!” A 14 years-old girl, who stood beside Lin Chen, exclaimed enthusiastically. She continued by screaming, “Let’s go down now!” Without even offering any warning, she pushed open the hatch which revealed the vast ground, thousands of meters below them.

The difference in air pressure caused violent winds to tunnel into the interior of the plane, leaving their hair in a mess.

The young girl sported a healthy bronze skin tone, adorned with a pair of eyes brimming with energy. Her behavior was akin to a lion cub out on her first adventure with her parent. She stared viciously at her objective beneath her feet.

Lin Chen tried to say something by opening his mouth, but the roaring wind simply rushed into his mouth, preventing him from saying a word. He could only sweep his head back before shouting, “But I don’t know how to use a parachute!”

“You don’t have to use a parachute!”

Those words rang an alarm in Lin Chen’s head as he clarified, “What do you even mean by that?”

The young girl was rather short-tempered. Innundated by Lin Chen’s non-stop queries, she simply responded by shoveling Lin Chen out of the plane.

Ahhh!

A series of ear-splitting shrieks erupted from the sky, capturing the attention of everyone within the district. They immediately craned their neck upwards for a glimpse of the source of this deafening shrieks.

With his acute sense of sight, Zhao Yao could make out the two human bodies plummeting from the sky. He began to rub his eyes and muttered,”What’s happening? Is there something wrong with my vision?”

On the other hand, everyone on Old Cat’s side had their eyes glued to this pair of humans. Even the battle was put on hold for them. The reason behind it was because they realized that their battlefield happened to be their landing spot!

Lin Chen grabbed onto the young girl for his dear life. He could literally see the humans beneath his feet growing bigger and bigger by the second. He was barely able to breathe as his heart pounded rapidly against his chest.

Meanwhile, the girl seemed completely indifferent to this dare-devil stunt. Somehow, she was still exasperated by Lin Chen’s obnoxious behavior. Hence, she just screamed into his ears, “Can you please stop screaming like a girl? A lot of people are staring at us! I find it rather embarrassing for you!”

Lin Chen tried opening his mouth to explain that it was out of his control. However, instead of words, all he managed to say when he opened his mouth was, “Ahhhhhhhh!”

Everyone was starting to worry for the pair of them as they showed zero indication of slowing down. Just when everyone thought that they were about to die, they began to decelerate rapidly. It was as if they had turned from a heavy boulder into a weightless feather. They then continued to descend gracefully onto the ground.

The young girl then tapped rapidly against Lin Chen’s head and muttered, “Hey, hey are you done yet? Can you let go of me? We’ve already touched down.”

Lin Chen’s face was as pale as paper. His entire body was devoid of an ounce of strength as he whispered, “Could you at least give me a heads up when you’re about to jump next time? I actually have a fear of heights.”

The girl simply responded with a shrug of her shoulders. She then swept her head towards the battlefield and was surprised by the number of casualties lying motionlessly on the ground. A frown appeared on her face as she muttered, “Are we too late?’

Obviously, both the girl and Lin Chen were government apostles. Over time, the government had continued their relentless effort to assemble their A-team. This was done through inviting strong apostles to the organization and devising weapons that completed their abilities seamlessly.

Actually, Chuan Xiao District had appeared on the government’s radar for quite some time. However, there were simply too many areas for them to control. Relatively, Chuan Xiao District posed less of a threat compared to some other places which explained their inaction all these time.

However, the government was alerted to some changes recorded by their data. From the GPS system, they identified numerous large-scale war machines appearing on their maps. Hence, they decided to dispatch Lin Chen here to find out more.

Their appearance was not welcomed by Old Cat. To err on the side of caution, Old Cat sent one of his apostles out to receive them to find out who they were.

Meanwhile, Lin Chen tried to explain by opening his mouth. However, instead of projecting words out of his mouth, he started vomiting his breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the ground. Even the girl slid Lin Chen a condescending glance.

Lin Chen waved his hands in the air and struggled to spoke, “I’m okay. I’m just a little dizzy from the flight here. But I’m much better already.” He then struggled to raise his head again. Before he even managed to say a word, he had plunged his head downwards as another deluge of vomit splashed onto the ground.

Old Cat began to weigh the situation carefully. The next moment, he shot his paw into the air before balling them into a fist. The apostles attacking Purple Sabre Fairy recognized the gesture and huddled towards him before slowly ambling towards Lin Chen.

Obviously, Old Cat was taking advantage of the situation by attacking Lin Chen when he was frail and weak.

Following their steps, a gush of blistering wind coupled with roaring flame began to spread towards them. A ring of fire and ice had already encircled the pair.

The girl’s heart was in her throat as she watched the two assailants creeping towards her with their fearsome powers. Meanwhile, her dear partner still had his head buried in his own vomit. Worry gnawed at her as she screamed, “Hey, are you okay? I have practically zero combat powers. I am supposed to depend on you for safety!”

Lin Chen continued waving his hands and explained with residual vomit dangling by the corner of his mouth, “I’m fine.”
