Chapter 198: How Can It Possibly Be Crown Prince Jun?

　　Just as she's about to speak, Madam Yan's pair of strict eyes were

　　like the cold edge of a blade as they swept over her face. Yan Yan

　　immediately no longer spoke.

　　Madam Yan gazed towards Feng Wu with a very complicated look.

　　Previously, when they were at Needs Filled Temple, she only felt that

　　this girl was aggressive and domineering, vulgar and violent. However,

　　after the close call with the demonic beast tide and earthquakes, Madam

　　Yan actually gradually changed her point of view towards Feng Wu.

　　At the soft s.p.a.ce between Madam Yan's eyebrows, here, a throbbing

　　pain manifested from time to time. Could it be that this young lady had

　　truly accurately diagnosed her condition? She truly suffered from an

　　incurable disease and would leave this world not long from now?

　　Thinking of this, Madam Yan only felt her heart rate speed up and her

　　back turning cold……her hand subconsciously covered the pit of her

　　stomach.

　　But it's no use thinking of these things right now. What's most important was to get through the obstacle before them.

　　"Mother, she——" Yan Yan wanted to complain to Madam Yan.

　　But what was hard for her to believe was that her mother, who had

　　always s.h.i.+elded her one-sidedly presently actually admonished her with

　　an exceptionally strict tone of voice. "Shut up if you don't want to

　　die!"

　　Yan Yan suddenly felt extremely aggrieved, and cried with 'wah wah' sounds as she ran away……

　　But Madam Yan could no longer bother with Yan Yan's little temper.

　　She looked into Feng Wu's eyes, revealing a bit of hope and expectation,

　　revealing a bit of appreciation, and also some nervousness.

　　At a time were life and death was on the line, time pa.s.sed especially slowly. Each second seemed as long as a century.

　　However, time still pa.s.sed minute by minute, second by second.

　　Everyone stood on top of the city gate tower, their gazes stretching

　　far into the distance with great effort, towards the direction of

　　Peaceful Remote City. Everybody waited for support troops to appear in

　　the distant horizon that could save them from the midst of fires.

　　"Where are the rescue troops? Why are there no rescue troops, why……"

　　"How much time has already pa.s.sed now?"

　　"Fourteen minutes already. There's only the very last minute left——"

　　Again, it's the most urgent single last minute……General Wu observed

　　the densely packed demonic beast tide below the city walls. A deep

　　feeling of despair appeared in his heart.

　　Because he'd been stationed at Winding Peace City for years on end,

　　General Wu and demons**had engaged many times, but none of those times

　　were like this time. The demonic beasts surged towards them with an

　　absolutely crus.h.i.+ng momentum——

　　"Fifty nine, fifty eight, fifty seven, fifty six——"

　　With each pa.s.sing second, everybody's hearts pulsed violently.

　　Each and every person on top of the city wall, as they focused into

　　the distance, they focused at the demonic beast tide, while also

　　focusing on the a.s.sembly PaG.o.da——

　　The very last spirit crystal had already been inserted into the

　　a.s.sembly PaG.o.da. Along with the pa.s.sing of time, the originally bright

　　rays of light from the a.s.sembly PaG.o.da could be seen to be darkening at a

　　speed visible to the naked eye——

　　Oh no——

　　At this moment, the color of despair appeared inside everyone's hearts.

　　So much so that ice-cold despair even burst forth within Feng Wu's heart.

　　Because she also was out of ideas.

　　What she could do was to strive her hardest in protecting the people

　　beside her, however……based on her current strength, how would it be

　　possible for her to protect them?

　　Just when Feng Wu's brain was in a great mess, suddenly——

　　"Look everybody! A person, there's a figure approaching on horseback

　　in the northeast direction! He's coming towards our direction! He's

　　coming towards us!"

　　It was unknown who cried out in surprise!

　　Instantly, everybody's line of sight looked towards that direction!

　　"But, there's merely a single figure, what difference can he make?"

　　Yan Yan scowled sullenly. "If that person is Crown Prince Jun, then

　　undoubtedly he'd have the insane power to turn things around. However,

　　how can it possibly be Crown Prince Jun? Eh? This figure, why does it

　　look more and more like……can it be that prior to facing death's door,

　　hallucinations are appearing?"
