Chapter 1082
The roar came from the sky above and reverberated across the whole of Beshya's defense line.
Everyone swung their gazes overhead.
In the light of dawn, a military helicopter descended at rapid speed.
Due to the sheer number of injuries and casualties among the soldiers in Beshya's defense line, many helicopters hovered over the battlefield, transporting the wounded away and replenishing ammunition ceaselessly.
For that reason, no one paid any mind to those aircraft.
However, this particular helicopter was vastly different, for there were fluctuations of a God Realm cultivator's spiritual energy from within it.
The military helicopter slowly dipped.
When it was about thirty meters above the ground, several figures leaped out of the aircraft.
The man in the lead was dressed in black with a crescent saber slung over his shoulder.
His pitch-black mask that could block the probing of spiritual sense, in particular, rendered him exceedingly mysterious.
He was none other than Karl, who had rushed over after providing backup to the Kransbay base.
Unfortunately, he could not reveal his identity right then, so his code name was Zero.
Behind him were Zachary, Kane, and Andy.
The saber in Karl's hand was stained with distinct streaks of dried blood.
"Because Joshua is under the protection of Asura's Office! Is that reason enough?"
Karl demanded hoarsely, pointing the saber in his hand right at Winston.
At that moment, all those from the seven respectable families were slightly stunned at Karl's sudden appearance.
There shouldn't be any God Realm cultivator in Asura's Office since Jonathan killed Karl.
How could there be one now? On the battlefield at present, Asura's Office had Hayden, Joshua, Karl, and Jonathan, who had been standing at the back making calls.
The collective capability of four God Realm cultivators was not to be underestimated, not to mention when Joshua and Jonathan had plenty of tricks up their sleeves.
After having pursued Joshua for such a long time, they were long since familiar with the man's combat capabilities.
With just the three priceless treasures of the Whitley family in his possession, he could easily hold his own against several God Realm cultivators.
If Jonathan, who never played by the rules, were added into the mix, the chances of the seven respectable families emerging the victor were slim despite currently outnumbering them by three men.
However, the Whitley family's legacy was right before their eyes then, and the eight respectable families had been hunting Joshua for a long time.
As such, they would never give up so easily.
"Don't you think you're too arrogant, you guys from Asura's Office? You'd best think twice.If you truly make a move against the seven respectable families for Joshua's sake, we'll have no choice but to wipe Asura's Office out.By then, don't blame me for not warning you"
Remy threatened with a sneer, his eyes fixed on Karl.
Hearing that, Karl did not bother yakking with the man.He lifted the saber in his hand and slashed it across the ground.
"This slash mark is the boundary line.If any one of you from the respectable families dares to take a step beyond this line, Asura's Office will declare war against the eight respectable families.It'll be a fight to the death!"
He was as blunt as ever.
In fact, that could already be considered a blatant threat to the seven respectable families.
Naturally, such high-handed words struck resentment in Remy and the others.
After all, the eight respectable families had existed for over two thousand years, and they were the makers of the rules in the whole of Chanaea.
Therefore, it stood to reason that they could not stand being threatened in such a manner.
"Die!"
Out of the blue, a roar split the air.
Behind Remy, a bald cultivator suddenly burst forth and charged toward Joshua, who was within the force field of a whirling snowstorm.
Although the representatives of the seven respectable families belonged to different camps, they stood together under the threat of Asura's Office.
They were all God Realm cultivators.
Once someone made a move, the others reacted in a heartbeat, albeit never having discussed things beforehand.
Ultimately, they knew the chances of them killing Joshua by attacking together were low.
