Chapter 378: Section 165: This person must be thoroughly investigated.

The sea of fire blazed intensely.

Combat Skill—Chill Streak Bird!

Zhao Ya’s entire body gushed out fighting energy, which flowed like water, sending countless fighting energy chill birds flying.

The chill birds split into three groups: one circled around Zhao Ya as a protective measure, another attacked Bi Tong, and the last targeted Firebeard from a distance.

However, the fighting energy chill birds, which merely flew over the sea of fire, spontaneously combusted within a minute.

The chill birds turned into blazing torches, struggling in midair.

They transformed into firebirds, switching their direction of attack towards Zhao Ya, Bi Tong, and the rest of the Barbarians.

“How could this happen?!” Zhao Ya was profoundly shocked.

His fighting energy, once ignited, slipped totally from his control and turned into Firebeard’s tool.

“My understanding of cold and freezing is completely crushed by him. Firebeard… this guy must be nearing godhood!”

Zhao Ya could only hastily defend himself, dealing with the flock of firebirds diving towards him.

Bi Tong’s situation wasn’t any better.

Clamping his teeth, he opened a portal and sent the Impact Needle away.

In just that brief moment, the Impact Needle had already begun to melt severely. It was a Holy Domain Level demon energy ship, but it was utterly powerless above the sea of fire—Bi Tong could only send it away.

It wasn’t just that; he himself felt unbearable heat; had he not suppressed it with all his fighting energy, he might have spontaneously combusted by now.

“His grasp on fire and combustion is far too profound.”

“Even the space around me is melting!”

“Firebeard really lives up to his name.”

Bi Tong, as an Admiral of the Navy, had heard of Firebeard’s reputation even before joining the Navy, when he was still of the Holy Domain.

He joined the Navy, rose to Legend, then to Admiral, leading one of the Naval four main factions. Relying on his bloodline and the convenience of manipulating space, he always had smooth sailing.

He had long harbored intentions to challenge a predecessor like Firebeard.

However, this time when he truly combated with Firebeard, he realized: though both were Legends, he was far from being Firebeard’s match!

“So powerful, overwhelmingly so!”

“Firebeard is likely extremely close to the level of a deity.”

“No wonder there were rumors saying the Fire Gods of the Holy Bright Continent, Molten Lava Continent, and Wilderness Continent all sought trouble with Firebeard.”

Firebeard had become a thorn in the flesh for the Fire Gods.

“Why should I fiercely contend against such a formidable figure?”

“Let the Fire Gods handle him.”

“My sole objective for being here is the Mei Lan Divine Throne!”

Bi Tong exerted his full strength, unleashing his most powerful Combat Skill.

In the next instant, space erupted into chaos, a billion space fragments enveloped the entire battlefield, engulfing the Barbarian Warship, Zhao Ya, and Bi Tong himself.

From amidst the endless space fragments, Zhao Ya’s furious roars could be heard.

Then, boom!

A massive explosion occurred, and the sky momentarily turned into a blazing white light, dazzling everyone to the point of being unable to open their eyes.

The aftermath of the full-force clash between the two Legends struck the Barbarian Warship.

The Barbarian Warship melted away under the intense light, like snow meeting sunlight, turning into endless dust.

The warriors on the warship also turned into dust.

Man Zhuang did his utmost to resist, and at the crucial moment, a shadow drenched in blood appeared beside him and whisked him away.

The searing light nearly consumed all the Barbarian Warships, reaching up to Feng Yao, wearing ash, and the other prisoners.

“We’re finished!” Feng Yao and the others looked ashen.

Their bodies dissolved in the white light, disappearing largely in an instant.

Yet at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared!

He looked towards Feng Yao, wearing ash, emitting a faint glow of fire, and because of this, the blazing white light halted its advance.

“Boss…”

“Big brother.”

It was Firebeard.

He was bald, without even eyebrows, displaying a fierce and grand demeanor, yet slightly bizarre.

His build was tall and muscular, sturdy like blocks, but not bulky like a bear—rather, impressively robust and upright.

He wore the attire of a pirate captain, with a broken scimitar hanging at his waist.

The scimitar’s handle resembled the head of a phoenix, and the blade shone beautifully like a phoenix’s tail, though a large portion was broken.

The scimitar exuded a divine aura; it was a Divine Artifact!

The damaged Divine Artifact—Fierce Tail Blade.

“No worries, brothers, I’m here,” Firebeard said, smiling at Feng Yao and wearing ash.

His palm rested on the handle of the Fierce Tail Blade, from which golden flames emanated from the phoenix’s head.

The flames flowed over Feng Yao and wearing ash’s bodies, forming two fiercely burning torches.

The torches pushed back the surrounding intense light. Feng Yao and wearing ash were treated rapidly by the flames, quickly restored to full health, without any injuries.

The intense light faded away, the Phoenix Flames vanished.

Feng Yao and wearing ash survived in excellent condition, they scanned the battlefield; Bi Tong and Zhao Ya were nowhere to be seen.

Besides them, there were many captives who had also received treatment from the Phoenix Flames and survived.

These survivors were supported in mid-air by Firebeard’s Fighting Energy, temporarily suspended.

The previous sea of fire had vanished, and the battlefield had returned to its normal appearance.

“Lord Firebeard, you saved me! Please let me join your fleet!!”

“I would also like to follow you!!”

“Boss, the Divine Seat of Mei Lan is missing,” reported Grey, visibly distressed.

Firebeard shook his head, “It was Bi Tong who grabbed it, and Zhao Ya rescued that Barbarian from the Holy Domain.”

“Boss, it’s all my fault, if it wasn’t for saving us, the Divine Seat of Mei Lan would definitely be yours. Those two are no match for you!” Feng Yao expressed his guilt.

Firebeard patted his shoulder, “It doesn’t matter, for the sake of brothers, what’s a Divine Seat of Mei Lan anyway?”

He laughed heartily, his spirited demeanor impressing everyone.

“It’s not like that.” Feng Yao, clutching his hair, was utterly distressed, “That is the Divine Seat of my most beloved Goddess. To have it snatched away! For my Goddess, I must get it back. Boss, please help me, my lifelong happiness depends on you.”

Firebeard: …

Grey and others: …

Dun Dao City.

Dungeon.

The torch burned, but couldn’t illuminate this cell.

The head of the Purple Vine Shop in Dun Dao City was now gasping for breath, covered in wounds.

He was being interrogated by a group of the empire’s spies.

“Speak, how did you transport and arrange those Alchemy Bombs into the city?” the spy chief asked with an icy stare.

“I didn’t, I really didn’t!” the shop head denied while crying.

“Didn’t!? Without a local tyrant like you, would Alchemy Bombs be deployed so swiftly and covertly across Dun Dao City? If you confess now, you will suffer less,” the spy chief sneered relentlessly.

The head just shook his head: “I really don’t know anything!”

“Continue the torture!” the spy chief sneered.

Thus, the dungeon echoed continuously with the shop head’s screams of agony.

But no matter the torture, the shop head never confessed, because he knew very well that showing any weakness would not only affect him but his entire family!

“About these Alchemy Bombs, I’m completely unaware!”

“Hmph, without your covert cooperation, how could the Justice Pirate Group, new to the area, manage to set up these Alchemy Bombs so quickly? Could it be that your family, or some other families, or even the City Lord himself arranged it?”

The head cried, “I’ve told everything I know! That night, I had received an order from the higher-ups of Purple Vine, and I had verified their Elder Token, only then did I serve these people. How could I know they were underlings of a foreign deity!”

Seeing that no new information was forthcoming from the interrogation, the spy chief had to order his unfortunate transfer.

“Leader, what should we do next? Investigate the City Lord or other families?” The spy squad exited the dungeon.

The spy chief shook his head, “I’m only Silver Level, let’s tread carefully on their territory. Luckily, we have gained something this time. Have the items been brought?”

“They have been brought.” His subordinate immediately responded.

The spy chief saw a pile of fragments.

These were fragments of the Communication Magic Device.

During the interrogation, the shop head detailed the activities of Zi Di and others after they entered the city that night, including their use of Magic Devices to communicate.

However, the shop head had been left outside the door at the time and did not know the specific communications of Zi Di.

The day after the Black Market auction ended, the shop head found that the Magic Communication Device in the shop had malfunctioned. When he called someone to repair it, a minor explosion occurred, turning the entire device into a pile of rubble.

The spy chief picked up a small fragment and observed it but couldn’t discern anything, causing him to shake his head and sigh.

“Sir, can these things help us complete our task?” His subordinates were also worried.

The spy chief said, “Let’s submit what we have interrogated and these fragments first. We need to stay here for now and wait for new orders from above.”

Big Military Port.

Navy Headquarters.

Space tore open, and Bi Tong stepped through, returning here.

His face showed intense pain as he lifted his shirt to see that most of his skin had been severely burnt and was red and swollen.

“Firebeard…” The thought of that imposing figure filled Bi Tong with apprehension.

“If it hadn’t been for Feng Yao, Grey, and others holding him back, I could never have seized the Divine Seat of Mei Lan.”

“This guy is simply a monster!”

He had already downed potions, but they were minimally effective. To treat such injuries, he still needed to seek healing at a temple.

There were several temples within the Big Military Port.

Bi Tong let his shirt fall and covered his injuries, then left the room.

Noticing Bi Tong’s return, the Navy personnel who had stayed were very surprised and immediately reported various intelligence to him.

The Justice Pirate Group was still on the run, Wei Sheng’s vast fleet was in pursuit, a Navy Holy Domain Level had caught a clue and was personally pursuing the Justice Pirate Group, along with news from Bishop Hao Fu and Dun Dao City.

“Eh?” Bi Tong was somewhat surprised.

He saw the intelligence interrogated from the head of the Purple Vine Shop.

“The Justice Pirate Group, using the Magic Communication Device that night, contacted someone?”

“Who?!”

“Humph, the Communication Magic Device is destroyed, but these fragments are also clues. As long as we can engage an Alchemy Grandmaster, we’ll certainly find out.”

Bi Tong’s eyes sparkled sharply, and he instantly decided to thoroughly investigate. This clue was extremely valuable!
