Although they were very far apart, they could see that it was indeed the younger prince.
“It’s really him! Guys, get him!”
Everyone, Six included, immediately charged out like mad men.
Run! Run! Run!
Meanwhile, the younger prince…
He looked at Feng Wu with a complicated expression in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Feng Wu gave him a grumpy look. “What is it?”
Taking a deep breath, the prince fought back his excitement, looked at Feng Wu, and asked, “How… how did you do it?”
He had seen with his own eyes what happened.
He had smiled bitterly when Feng Wu buried things in the ground, because he didn’t think that it would work.
He had still been smiling bitterly when Feng Wu set up the formation, for he didn’t think the ad hoc formation would work.
When Feng Wu pulled him into the tunnel, he was still smiling bitterly, because he didn’t think that they would make it.
However —
They had still been running, when Feng Wu then told him to lie down on his stomach, facing the cave. He then saw the terrifying explosion.
Heavy smoke rose, the ground shook, and the tunnel almost collapsed.
Six, who had been fiercely chasing them, was almost burned into charcoal.
Over half the assassins were killed.
The younger prince was speechless.
He looked at Feng Wu with glowing eyes. “How did you do it?”
What he deemed a miracle was only a mundane act to Feng Wu.
She shrugged and said casually, “Didn’t you seen it for yourself?”
The prince said, “The bombs might have hurt the other men, but how did it break through Captain Six’s defense? He’s a Spiritual Lord!”
Feng Wu smiled. “Spiritual Lords are indeed as unshakable as mountains to us, but are they really?”
She then grinned. “A common bomb may not be able to hurt him, but what about two, three, or seven? If seven wasn’t enough, the formation amplified the impact. And if that still wasn’t enough, there were also the steel balls. And if those still weren’t enough —
“An enclosed space like that can amplify the explosion several times over. That’s to say, it was an explosion equivalent to one with ten times as many steel balls!” said Feng Wu.
The prince stared at Feng Wu with an open mouth.
Feng Wu smiled. “That should be enough to fill the gap between a Spiritual Elder and a Spiritual Lord. Moreover, Six was right at the center of the explosion. He was bound to be injured.”
What a pity. If Six had realized it a little later, he wouldn’t have had time to activate his defense…
If that had been the case, Six would be a charred corpse now.
The younger prince didn’t know what to say.
“Although Six was injured by the explosion, he can still fight. Will he find this tunnel?” The younger prince was concerned.
Feng Wu said, “Of course he will.”
The prince gave Feng Wu a strange look. “If that’s the case, we should run now!”
Feng Wu gave him an enigmatic smile. “Hold on.”
Without further explanation, Feng Wu began to bustle around in the tunnel.
If she could set a trap for Six in the cave, why couldn’t she do it again in the tunnel?
