<h4>Chapter 1886</h4>


    Tianming already knew what to expect with the other sun emperor. He knew that the best he could do there was to minimize the damage; he couldn’t entirely remove it. The only thing he should focus on now wasn''t killing the sun emperor, but helping the others evacuate. Thus, he was ready to give it his all no matter the opponent.


    "Tianming," a cold voice said from behind.


    Tianming smiled and turned back and saw Lingfeng resolutely looking at him. "Why didn''t you leave?"


    "You won''t leave your subjects behind, and I can''t leave you behind," Lingfeng said. That was why he had also stepped on the path of no return. One look at his eyes was enough to convey his intentions.


    If things went as expected, they would be fighting for their lives as the people evacuated. Many were fated to enter theirst slumber here. The celestial orderians continued their assault, per their leader''s orders, though they were far from as spirited as before when Tianming had been assumed dead. At the same time, the Divine Sun Pce continued its approach and aimed itself at Tianming, as well as Myriaddragon Mountains. In other words, if Tianming escaped, the st would vaporize the evacuating folks. It was a move that targeted Tianming''s weakness—underhanded, but effective. Tianming had armed the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, but hecked the power source to properly use it, hence the disparity in their strength.


    "You’re far too immature to be going against me," the sun emperor arrogantly said. He seemed to have a counter for every one of Tianming''s moves. In fact, the Divine Sun Pce was even more terrifying than the sun emperor now, with the formation gone. Its gigantic mouth hung open as it charged up the destructive st. "You better not evade it, or those behind you will die! You wouldn''t be fit to be their ruler if you have them die for you, would you?"


    "Shameless!" Countless people cursed the underhandedness of the sun emperor, especially given how he was the strongest person on the sun. His thick skin simply made him incredibly hard to deal with.


    The people behind Tianming hastily moved aside. Divine Wrath sts were no joke, and at that moment, a pir of gold shot toward Tianming. The sky itself changed color from the sheer glow. Fortunately, the people behind Tianming had moved aside quickly enough, giving him a chance to evade. Even so, Tianming was sent flying from the sheer might of the st, his back scalded red. The st had brushed past him and mmed into Great Saintdragon Peak, leaving a gigantic, smoking crater in thendscape. The great peak had stood for countless years, only to fall this very day, dealing a blow to the morale of the troops. Luckily, they hadn’t suffered many casualties from that st. However, it was only a matter of time before the Divine Sun Pce charged up another st.


    The Saintdragon Emperor quickly reacted. "Retreat, quick!"


    The Myriaddragon Mountains was their final stronghold. They wouldn''t know where to go after leaving it, but staying meant certain death so they kept on moving.


    "The Imperialdragon Princeps is buying us time!"


    "We have to retreat, quick!"


    "He can only leave if we retreat! We have to hurry up so he can survive!"


    Thankfully, the Myriad Sr Sects knew Tianming''s intentions well. He was thankful for that, and felt like what he was doing was meaningful. Once more feeling a fighting spirit, he charged straight for the Divine Sun Pce like a moth to fire. He only had a small window of time to disrupt it, but it was merely aughable effort to the sun emperor.


    Everything seemed like it had been fated to happen. Something utterly breathtaking urred, and Tianming was the first one to see it. As he charged toward the Divine Sun Pce, he suddenly felt a terrifying source of power beyond the ming clouds! It was definitely a divine astralships, and it seemed more powerful than the sun emperor''s own! But how could that be possible?


    A gaping hole in the ming clouds suddenly opened up thanks to a greenish vortex. A green object appeared from within before shooting out two green pirs of light! Unlike the Divine Sun Pce’s Divine Wrath, these sts were even faster. Ice crystals formed in the air where the beams passed. Half of the mes on the battlefield were immediately extinguished by the frost.


    "What the hell are those?!" The sts had been too fast and gave nobody the time to react. Tianming looked at the target of the sts: the sun emperor and the Divine Sun Pce! The Myriad Sr Sects and Tianming himself weren''t their targets. He didn''t know who the neers were, but was relieved that they weren''t after him.


    However, that onlysted a moment. It didn''t take much to infer that the divine astralship was Skywolf''s! Just because their stars hadn''t arrived yet didn''t mean their divine astralships couldn''te there ahead of them. Still in shock, Tianming saw a wolf-like apparition beyond the green vortex in the sky. It was definitely from Skywolf and it had determined that the strongest side on the battlefield was the sun emperor''s, hence why it chose to attack while the Divine Sun Pce was charging up.


    Each of the sts was just as powerful as Divine Wrath! They were just as swift as they were powerful! Tianming couldn''t even react to the speed of the st, while he could still get out of the way of the Divine Wrath. Had he been the target of the green beams, he would bepletely vaporized. Those beam attacks were far more merciless than a strike from the crimson-gold coffin.


    The sun emperor and his pce seemed unable to react and were swallowed up by the green beams of light. The Divine Sun Pce, especially, was only slightly able to swerve aside before a beam squarely struck it.
