Lu Nange nodded: "Okay! You can have that branch. I'll take Gangzi over to check on things! Huanhuan, you and Aye stay home!"

Lu Beiye nodded vigorously...

Ji Huan nodded obediently...

Lu Nange shouted at Gangzi, who was carrying Zhizhi in mid-air and basking in the sun.

Gangzi swooped down with a 'screech'!

Lu Nange lifted Zhizhi off Gangzi's back and tucked her into Lu Beiye's arms. Then, she rolled over and sat on Gangzi's back.

"Zhizhi, you and Aye stay home!"

The girl with the wavy hair nodded: "Chirp chirp chirp..."

"Let's go!" Lu Nange patted Gangzi on the back of the neck...

Gangzi flapped his wings suddenly, creating a gust of air, and carried Lu Nange into the sky, speeding towards the market gate!

At this moment, at the market gate...

Chi Yanzhou: "Chi Qi, Zhang Ao...you two guard the entrance to the death! Do not allow anyone to take advantage of the chaos to break through! Maintain basic order!"

"Received, Captain Chi!" Chi Qi and Zhang Ao said in unison, immediately directing their team members to tighten their defenses and firmly guard the entrance to the fence.

Chi Yanzhou, along with Lu Xici, Gu Qi, He Zhuo, and Chi Yi, headed directly towards the chaotic battlefield outside the door.

Meanwhile, in the settlement area inside the market, Sang Che, Sang Yan, Xie Linlin, and Shen Zhiheng followed Chi Yanzhou's instructions and were quickly replaced from their patrol posts.

Their mission was to protect Wen Qing and Yu Wei in the settlement area, ensure the market remained orderly, and prevent anyone from luring them away from the market.

The four of them shielded Wen Qing and Yu Wei in the middle, watching the market's interior with vigilance.

As He Zhuo followed Chi Yanzhou and the others quickly outside, he furtively approached Chi Yanzhou and whispered the question that had been bothering him.

"Brother Yan, is that Shen Zhiheng... reliable?"

Chi Yanzhou did not stop walking, his gaze fixed on the increasingly clear center of the riot ahead.

"Whether it's reliable or not, we'll find out by trying it."

As soon as they stepped out of the golden fence, the crowd waiting in line to enter immediately stirred.

Many people recognized Chi Yanzhou and his group at a glance, and their awe and fear caused the crowded people to spontaneously and quickly make way for them.

Watching Chi Yanzhou and his group, exuding a chilling aura, head straight towards the center of the commotion...

"Everyone, get out of the way! Flameheart is handling business! All unrelated personnel, step back!"

Lu Xici's loud and authoritative voice attempted to quell the chaos at the scene and calm everyone down...

Before He Zhuoren had even fully entered the inner circle, his signature loud voice arrived first, carrying a strong sense of threat.

"Hey! You guys fighting! Stop it right now! Did you hear me?... Did we agree to you running wild on our Flameheart territory? If you don't stop, don't blame us for being impolite!"

However, in the center of the battle, Si Sheng and Jin Xiao's group were locked in a fierce and evenly matched fight with Huang Pan's group. Their supernatural abilities clashed, and fists and feet flew everywhere. Clearly, they were all enraged and couldn't stop fighting for the time being...

Chi Yanzhou: "Aqi, do it!"

With a casual flick of his long, slender fingers, Gu Qi unleashed a powerful jet of high-pressure water that cascaded down on the chaotic crowd!

The water jet was incredibly powerful, instantly drenching everyone and causing many low-level ability users to stagger and fall to the ground due to its strong impact.

Of everyone present, only Si Sheng, with his level five superpower, and Huang Pan, also at level five, reacted the fastest. With their superhuman speed and anticipation, they attempted to dodge to the side just as the water column reached them...

But they never expected... the real killer move was yet to come!

"Sizzle—crackling!"

Just as the water column enveloped the entire area, leaving everyone soaked, Chi Yanzhou raised his hand and unleashed a bolt of lightning that swept across the water!

He Zhuo: "Ugh... Lightning's effect is doubled when it meets water!"
