After dialing several times without anyone answering, even Shen Annan's heart began to sink.

Did something happen to the Beihai Fleet?

But the main force of the bandits is on this side...

The Beihai Fleet still retains strong strike capabilities, who could harm them?

To the extent that they can't even answer internal calls?

Unless there's interference from a satellite system like 'Skynet' or 'Black Tortoise' blocking signals in that area, did the Lu Family do something?

The Lu Family is trapped in the Barren Land and can't move; where would they get such powerful military capabilities?

"General..."

"General."

Shen Annan's face was ashen, this was a matter of great importance, and he had to report to Shen Xinglan immediately.

If an incident occurred with the Beihai Fleet, their retreat path would be severed.

Everyone would die here...

The Dragon Camp, Shen Xinglan, and himself.

Including the few main combat regiments of the Beihai Fleet they brought along.

Shen Xinglan felt as if his heart was dead, still drowning in the sorrow of being defeated by Tang Fei once again.

The ever-present thought of revenge, the fantasy of a flying sword, Tang Fei's head rolling...

All came to nothing.

Hatred deepened, even making him feel a sense of 'invincibility' about this opponent.

He could totally understand Chu King's feeling of facing death in battle rather than escaping when defeated by Liu Bang.

No face to meet the Jiangdong elders.

It's as though I'm already dead.

Hearing Shen Annan's anxious call, Shen Xinglan forced himself to open his weary eyes and asked solemnly, "What happened?"

"General, the Beihai Fleet isn't responding."

"Contact Commander Chen Binghan..."

Shen Xinglan couldn't continue speaking.

He knew that with Shen Annan's meticulous style, he must have tried to contact Commander Chen Binghan before giving him this answer.

If contact with Chen Binghan is also lost, then it proves that the entire Beihai Fleet is out of their control.

What exactly happened?

Could the bandits have the capability to strike Liyu Port while attacking Feng City?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

They had a clear understanding of the bandits' strength and had conducted several simulations at Qi Mountain's Staff Headquarters before coming here.

How could there be a mistake?

How could it be wrong?

But the Beihai Fleet and Commander Chen Binghan both losing contact at the same time...

"Could they have also betrayed us?"

At the thought of this possibility, Shen Xinglan's heart pounded fiercely.

The Barbarian Clan defected to the bandits, the Dushan Army defected, the City Lord of Golden City willingly surrendered the city...

Even Shen Qingping, a member of the Shen Family's Direct Lineage, defected to the bandits, so could Chen Binghan of the Beihai Fleet have done the same?... Not impossible, right?

After all, there are so many precedents.

Now that they are in a state of disconnection, Shen Xinglan truly held little confidence in these people.

"Isn't it impossible?"

Hearing Shen Xinglan's conjecture, Shen Annan was also a bit flustered.

If they're destroyed, that's one thing; but if they defect to the bandits...

Isn't the enemy getting stronger and stronger?

How do we fight this?

As Shen Xinglan and Shen Annan were growing anxious and uneasy, they were already retrieved by the Dragon Camp and heavily protected.

Seeing Shen Xinglan injured, Shen Qingping immediately led the guards rushing over, forming a standoff with the Dragon Camp.

Tang Fei swung his sword, which also exhausted quite a bit of energy.

The final Netherworld Vortex drained his body.

Fortunately, after advancing to the Grandmaster Realm, the Yin Yang Qi within him could cycle continuously, helping him recover in a short amount of time.

His body lightly descended, standing once again in front of Shen Qingping.

Black fire burned on the Yin Erosion Sword, and his body was enveloped in black mist.

He looked very much like the villainous figures in those movies and TV shows...

It wouldn't make sense if he wasn't given the title of Ghost King Demon Venerable.

Shen Xinglan, dressed in white, lay weakly in Shen Annan's arms, appearing fragile yet beautiful.

Mmm, if those infatuated girls and momma's boys saw him, they'd probably shed tears of pity.

"On guard!"

Shen Annan was extremely wary of Tang Fei, afraid that he would hurt Shen Xinglan again, and immediately called for protection.

Clank!

Hundreds of cultivators from the Dragon Camp immediately formed several teams, each wielding weapons and donning armor, ready for battle.

"Shen Xinglan, you've lost again."

Tang Fei looked at Shen Xinglan in the middle of the formation and said with a sly smile.

"..."

Shen Xinglan's face turned ashen, sweat beaded on his forehead, yet he remained silent.

Those words pierced his heart like a sharp dagger.

Making him miserable with pain.

"Are you still hoping for the Beihai Fleet to rescue you?" Tang Fei wasn't concerned with Shen Xinglan's life, continuing his verbal attack.

No, he was more interested in Shen Xinglan's death than his life...

"What happened to the Beihai Fleet?"

Shen Xinglan asked.

The Beihai Fleet is the core combat force of the Northern Warzone, with the majority of the Beihai Fleet in a silent state being a matter of great importance, he had to express concern.

It wasn't just him; even the Empire couldn't afford such a loss.

"Want to know?" Tang Fei looked at Shen Xinglan with a smile and said, "Come, I'll put on a show for you."

As Shen Xinglan and the others watched in confusion, he said, "Transmit my order, Beihai Fleet, lock on target."

"Beihai Fleet, lock on target."

The messenger beside him immediately relayed Tang Fei's order.

"Fire."

"Fire."

Rumble...

The Beihai Fleet's First Marine Brigade, Second Air Division, and Third Air Division, currently in combat mode, suddenly felt themselves locked onto by radar, and the sensation was very familiar...
