Chapter 468 — Thunder Shakes the Western Frontier
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
From within the Palace came the clatter and tramp of marching; tens of thousands of Yu family wielders poured out in file, and the True Heaven Palace Master appeared beneath the gate, looking down from on high at the family warriors below who had come to assault the Palace, a mocking expression on her face. Cold despair filled every heart. To sweep away the True Heaven Palace's mountain giant guardians, the families had lost more than a hundred thousand dead and wounded—yet this was only the Palace's outer strength; the Palace's core forces remained intact, and more terrible still!
These seven statues awakened by the summoning art were likely enough to sweep away all the great families! Add to that tens of thousands of Yu family masters, and what awaited them was total annihilation!
Shen Mu looked around; even He Yiyi, even Fang Caidie, even Luo Yinyu—despair was written on their faces.
"Sister Yunxi, you can command the weather—can you command thunder?
" Shen Mu came before Fu Yunxi and asked.
Fu Yunxi nodded, and said bleakly: "The Fu family excels at commanding the weather, and thunder is weather too. But after this battle, I fear the Western Lands' art of weather will become a thing of the past.
. .
" Shen Mu smiled faintly: "How much thunder can you control?
" Fu Yunxi was slightly startled and looked at him.
Shen Mu took out the True Dragon Lair and said in a low voice: "Fat Dragon, come here!
" The dragon qilin hurried over in a fluster; Shen Mu leaped onto his back and took out the Five Thunders Gourd, setting it on the qilin's brow.
The dragon qilin shuddered with dread and hastily put on a fawning smile: "Cult Leader, Human Emperor, Lord Shen! What's this about?
This little beast is frail and bony—how could he bear a death of ten thousand thunderbolts? " Shen Mu consoled him: "With the Fu family's masters here, not a hair on you will be harmed.
Up now, fly forward.
" Trembling, the dragon qilin trod the fire clouds and rose.
Shen Mu said in a low voice: "Sister Yunxi, bring every Fu family disciple with me!
" Before the True Heaven Palace, the Palace Master watched with a smile as the dragon qilin bore Shen Mu aloft; Shen Mu grinned at her, then suddenly tossed up his sword core.
The core rang and split apart, eight thousand swords moving as one, shua-shua-shua stabbing into the Five Thunders Gourd!
