Gacha Sovereign

"Lightning God Possession, Heaven's Wrath."

A bolt of lightning struck the Earth with its mighty power before it suddenly split into thousands of smaller lightning strikes, coloring the sky with a flash of golden color. Although it didn't make a huge impact like Alex's golden tribulation, it was still enough to brighten the sky nearby. The disciples' hearts skipped a beat when they thought the lightning strikes would kill him. To their surprise, it didn't do anything to them, making them feel relieved.

Unfortunately, the lightning suddenly vanished into thin air before there was a golden flash in everyone's eyes before a huge explosion that no one thought even existed shook the world.

Even Jeanne's lightning strike looked like a cat in front of a lion compared to this lightning. The explosion engulfed everything on its way, turning them into ash regardless of their cultivation. In fact, even their grand elder or other spirits could not survive from this attack, let alone them.

Song Yu, Song Jia, and their grandfather dropped their jaws to the ground, not expecting Leoz to use a technique beyond his understanding.

"This… Is this that legendary technique?" He muttered to himself.

Song Yu heard it and wanted to ask him, but the flash gradually dimmed down as she could slowly see the situation before dropping her jaw again.

The result was a huge and deep hole, piercing to the ground in about several ten meters. The hole had a diameter of three hundred meters and filled with darkness.

The most outrageous thing of this whole situation was the fact Leoz only did this with his 4-Star Martial Monarch strength. What if he used it at Martial Saint or above it? The thought flashed in everyone's mind, sending chills down their spine.

'Escape.'

This was the first thought of people from Joyful Union Sect. Unfortunately, the N squad worked fast as they suddenly appeared, taking out their Array Plates.

Another barrier erected in the middle of the battlefield, trapping more than thirty thousand people.

Alex's spare array plates finally became useful. Although their original purpose was to reinforce the barrier if they managed to break it, Greg reported that the barrier was fine, so they decided to use it this time without Alex's permission. There were still enough array plates to build another barrier, so they disappeared once again, searching for a perfect spot.

"Hii!"

"No!"

"Please help me out of here."

"I don't want to die."

The shrills coming from the trapped disciples jolted everyone's mind.

"Run!"

"Escape for your life!"

They started running for their life before another big array trapped another thirty thousand.

"Kill the ones that escape!" Alex shouted, ordering not only his friends but also the people from Blackwade Clan.

Song Yu quickly heard it and commanded, "We can save these guys for later. We will kill the ones that are escaping right now as to rout the remnant of Joyful Union Sect. Make sure you kill all of them to prevent them from taking revenge on us!"

"Yes!" They began their pursuit.

On the other hand, Alex threw two space rings to Anna. "Use the Spirit Gems to reinforce the array."

Anna nodded and flew to the barriers. She knew why Alex gave the space rings to her instead of bringing it himself. After all, he still had another important thing to do.

Watching Anna disappear, Alex flew toward Leoz, who was swaying around in the air, feeling exhausted. He stretched his hand and placed it on Leoz's shoulder, pulling him like a brother. "Thank you, Leoz. You can rest now. You have done more than enough. Thanks to your effort, we have won this battle."

"Yes… Master." Leoz closed his eyes, smiling widely as all of his horns slowly shrank. It might be strange that just hearing those words made it feel like everything was worth it. No matter how brutal the fighting he was forced to endure or how much blood he had to bleed or spill, those words alone relieved every burden in his heart.

Alex flew away with him before recalling him back to the card, not letting the others see.

Song Yu didn't hear a single thing, so she continued moving forward while leaving people behind to protect the barrier. Alex furrowed his eyebrows, wondering if these guys could be trusted, but he got his answer as soon as Song Jia came.

"Where are the others?" Alex asked, activating his Spirit Eyes to see whether there was anyone that dared to break the barrier.

Due to Leoz's prowess's showcase, even if there were any spies, they would not dare to fight Alex.

"They are still pursuing them. According to the statistic, our enemy has around one hundred and eighty thousand people. You have managed to trap around eighty thousand of them, while your friends have killed over sixty thousand. On the other hand, with our joint efforts, we have killed thirty thousand of them… which means they only have ten thousand left that are escaping. So, I assume the others will come back soon. Are you going to chase them?" Song Jia asked.

"Considering they have gone for a while, it's better to stay here and conserve my Spiritual Energy. We still need to kill eighty thousand more people after all." Alex shrugged.

"True enough." Song Jia glanced left and right before saying in a low voice. "Thank you."

"For what?"

"For all of this. You have destroyed the Joyful Union Sect, one of my Blackwade Clan enemies."

"Only for myself, not for the Blackwade Clan."

"Even so, I need to thank you." Song Jia bowed her head.

Alex didn't answer her anymore and waited for the groups to come back.

…

One hour later,

Anna and the others arrived before him, reporting their status.

"We have killed all of them, so there should be no worry about any potential threats." Anna glanced at Anya, asking if she wanted to add something.

"There is one more thing. What are you going to do with these people?" Anya asked before recalling a certain matter. "Wait, Leoz has pulverized the sect master and grand elder… Doesn't this mean we can't do anything after this war?"

Alex widened his eyes as he also forgot about this. Before the war, Alex wanted to destroy the family that had been bothering his disciple for a while. He thought about using the head of the sect master and grand elder to deal considerable damage if they said those cliche lines. It would seem he could not do it anymore.

"Sigh… We can only do it in a traditional way." Alex was disappointed.

"Haha…" The others started laughing.

"Anyway, can all of you kill those inside the barrier?" He pointed his finger to the two barriers.

"If we use the previous attack, those two were our limits. Me, Artur, and Jean could finish one barrier considering they are trapped inside. Jeanne, Fabio, and Vera could do another one. However, the problem would be the last barrier," Anna said.

"As expected…" Alex pondered for a moment before looking at Stina and Sherry.

Understanding his meaning, Stina nodded. "My opponents were engulfed by Leoz's attack so that I can fight those people. There are not many strong people there anyway. Besides, Sherry and Kyle are there. As long as we attack them with the Blackwade Clan, it is only a matter of time before they perish."

"Alright. We will go with that." Alex nodded and turned to everyone.

Song Yu also heard about it and came to Alex while looking at the spirits.

"You have heard them, right?" Alex cut to the chase.

"Yeah. It looks like you don't really need our help… With only a few people, you can destroy a single sect… I am afraid my Blackwade Clan will be next." Song Yu sighed.

'It seems she doesn't notice it.' Alex narrowed his eyes before feeling relieved. He laughed and changed the topic. "Haha… For what issue do I need to attack Senior Sister's clan? Or are you planning to make that issue?"

"No way. I will just sleep with you if that happens." Song Yu paused for a moment before letting out a hollow laugh. "Just kidding. You will hate me if I do that anyway."

"Though it's not really a good joke."

"Sorry Sorry. I can't help that." Song Yu waved his hands, treating it like no big deal.

"In any case, I am going to start now."

"Sure."

Alex brought the six spirits and opened both barriers.

Anna and the others used their attacks once again to kill the people inside the barriers. The battle only lasted for an instant as they were butchered in an instant.

Unlike Leoz, Anna and the others only had their True Spirit Body undone after using the attack.

In a normal case, Song Yu's grandfather would certainly view this as something different. He would think about whether to attack Alex or not, even if they were allies. After all, there was no telling if they would turn back on them. Seeing that Alex's group was on their lowest, this would be the perfect time to eliminate them.

Fortunately, Leoz's power left him a deep fear. He could not see Leoz anywhere, making him wary deep inside his heart. The wariness stopped him from thinking something like this.

Song Yu came to him. "What are you going to do now?"

"I will just wait until the Strength Plateau starts. Besides, just like our agreements, you guys can take their possessions other than their treasury after we hit the last barrier." Alex shrugged. He only cared about their treasury anyway, and his N squad already made their way there before he even asked.

"You know you will be famous throughout the continent after this, right? This is not like your usual style, where you usually take precautions." Song Yu asked, recalling how he acted in the Willow Continent.

"Northern Continent is Northern Continent, and Willow Continent is Willow Continent," Alex said mysteriously. Yet, Song Yu could somehow grasp what he meant.

She smiled and closed her eyes before saying, "Well… You must not want to be under someone again. Just take a look at Putri and me, despite having all of it from the start, we can only help you a little."

"By the way, where is Putri?" Alex asked, noticing the missing Putri. Knowing her nature, she would not miss this opportunity.

"I have asked her to do something for me, so she is not with us in this raid. Her role is to keep the family from informing any other influences about this battle. Well, just like we send spies to other influences, our clan also has many spies from other influences. Although we have killed many of them, there are still numerous of them inside. Putri is there to ensure no one could send a message about this battle, preventing them from joining this war." Song Yu shrugged.

"I see…" Alex nodded.

"Well then, it's time to clean up."

"Yeah." Alex nodded.
