"War only brings pain... War is a word that should not exist."

"Also, King Hu Yi..." Xie Feng looked at the man who was lamenting the death of his soldiers and slowly said, "You shouldn't cry so early."

Hearing his words, the king's eyes lit up again. For the first time since the beginning of this battle, King Hu Yi's voice cracked slightly and with trembling lips he cautiously asked, "Wha... What do you mean?"

Xie Feng did not answer immediately and instead looked behind him.

There were several people under the protection of the Bright Light Barrier and all of them, with the exception of Yin Yue who had stood beside Shen Xiya at all times, had helped in some way or another in the battle against the Abyssal Dragon.

The three people who had helped the most were undoubtedly; Shen Xinya with her terrifying attack that took fifty percent of the boss Saint grade's health; Mu Wuying with her powerful blessings that boosted Xie Feng's power to new heights and with her powerful attacks being even higher than that of the NPC soldiers; and last but not least, Mu Yin with her brilliant idea of using the power of the earth mages to suppress the Abyssal Dragon's flying skill.

Following these three people were Yao Mei and Gu Qianxue with their high magic damage and uninterrupted attacks. However, aside from Yin Yue, there was one woman who had not had a chance to do anything during the entire battle.

This person was Xie Yao.

Xie Yao's class was Holy Angel and she did not possess any powerful attack skills like Gu Qianxue. She also did not possess mysterious control skills like Shen Xinya, nor was she able to give powerful blessings like Mu Wuying... In fact, her Holy Angel class only possessed four skills of which three of them were passive.

From a certain point of view, her class was the weakest of all those present... However, from a certain point of view, her class was the most dreadful of all.

Xie Feng was very clear that if Xie Yao was killed by the Abyssal Dragon, the beast would be weakened due to her passive skill Heavenly Punishment. However, he could not send his loved one to her death; even if it was only a virtual death, he was not willing to see her die before him no matter what. But, aside from the passive skill Heavenly Punishment, there was another skill that made Xie Yao the most feared existence for any enemy army.

The only active skill of her Holy Angel class, Regression.

Regression was a skill that allowed Xie Yao to revive anyone she considered her ally two thousand meters around with her as the center. Since Xie Yao's skill did not limit her to players, unlike the Revive skill that priests acquired, she was able to revive fallen NPC soldiers as well!

When King Hu Yi heard Xie Feng's explanation, his eyes fiercely shivered and he looked at Xie Yao in a new light. If he saw her as a pretty woman with no ability before, now she was like a priceless and irreplaceable treasure.

In fact, precisely for this reason, Xie Yao was the only person present who could not die. As long as she was alive, even if the King of the North himself was killed by the Abyssal Dragon she could bring him back to life!

"Impressive!" King Hu Yi looked at her as if he was looking at his daughter and praised her. "As expected from one of the women of the legendary Creator of Myth! Every single person in this group is not normal!"

Hearing the king's words, the women inside the barrier couldn't help but look at Xie Feng with strange eyes. It was as if they were asking him what this old man was saying.

Cough...

Xie Feng coughed, feeling a little embarrassed. The matter of his somewhat special title was something he hadn't talked to anyone about since even he had no idea why the people of this world attached so much importance to it.

"So, King Hu Yi." Xie Feng decided not to linger on the matter from before and quickly continued, "You better think of a way to stop that dragon then we can get to work."

When he heard his words, King Hu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. He looked outside the barrier to see that 'that dragon' continued to attack everywhere as if it had gone mad and all rationality seemed to have disappeared.

Stop it? Ha! It was easier said than done!

The blazing flames and thunderous lightning had massacred every source of intelligent or unintelligent life in the vicinity; even the monsters several miles away had been wiped out. The only thing that had been spared from destruction were the plants that were part of the world stage.

In the midst of such chaos, there were two sources of light that soon caught the beast's attention. Its two blood-red eyes scanned the ground and it saw a small white light and another huge dark brown light. In the end, the big brown barrier was too conspicuous so the beast flew toward it at full speed.

Xie Feng and the others could not help but be surprised as they followed the Abyssal Dragon's gaze towards the huge dark brown light. Only now he and the others had realized that even in the midst of all the attacks the city had not fallen. In fact, it was still standing in its entirety!

BOOM!

The giant body of the Abyssal Dragon slammed against the huge brown barrier. However, although the brown barrier shook fiercely to the point that it seemed to be about to collapse, it did not collapse; on the contrary, the Abyssal Dragon was sent flying several hundred meters backwards!

"That's big brother Yang Tian!" Gu Qianxue exclaimed in surprise.

"That guy still didn't die yet?!" Xie Feng almost fell to the ground when he heard Gu Qianxue's words. Of course, it wasn't that he was cursing him. It was just that he found it incredible that not only was Yang Tian still alive, but he even managed to protect the entire city!

"That's his special skill." Yao Mei interjected. Seeing that Xie Feng was looking at her, she continued, "My Leviathan fire skill possesses high fire-type damage and high survivability; as long as there is a single flame left, my Leviathan can rise again. On the other hand, Yang Tian's skill possesses high defensive and knockback ability.... Although he probably can't hold on for long or else the same thing that happened to me before will happen to him."

Unlike in the past, after more than a week of constant interaction with the people present, Yao Mei no longer had difficulty talking to some of them. Especially with Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, and Xie Feng.

"Is Yang Tian stronger than you?" Xie Feng asked with a frown.

Yang Tian had already endured for ten minutes but was still standing, however, back then Yao Mei had only endured for approximately two minutes before her life was in danger.

"He is not." Yao Mei didn't even think about it for a moment as she shook her head gently. She seemed to understand Xie Feng's doubts, so she said her guess, "My Leviathan consumes a lot of mental power since it is a battle skill. But Yang Tian's skill is likely to have a much lower consumption since it is a static skill with no movement at all. However, if the Abyssal Dragon continues to target him, it is likely that the barrier will soon collapse or the energy consumption will reach the point where his life will be at risk unless he deactivates the skill of his own will."

Xie Feng's eyes flashed and he finally nodded. Indeed, Yao Mei's words made a lot of sense and were easy for anyone to accept.

After all, Yao Mei was recognized as the strongest person, even being able to fight on equal footing against her own father for several minutes before falling at a disadvantage. Therefore, there was no way Yang Tian was stronger than her.

"Still... That guy sure is arrogant and proud!" Xie Feng couldn't help but praise him loudly, even if he couldn't hear him.

Yang Tian said that he would protect the foundations of the city and that was what he was doing even now!
