C608 Who Is Chang'e1?
"Stop with the nonsense! We don't have an ancestor named Chang'e!" The Black-robed Holy Nun of the Moon Light Martial Mansion was taken aback by Lee Yuanye's words. It took her a moment to gather herself before she reprimanded him.
"Well, that's convenient. I was considering sparing some dignity for your Moon Light Martial Mansion out of respect for Chang'e, but now there's no need for that," Lee Yuanye replied, preparing to fire again.
"You must have a death wish!" the Black-robed Holy Nun shouted in fury as a massive moon shadow, spanning over a hundred feet, appeared behind her. This time, the moon shadow was a full moon, not just an illusion but a tangible small world. In a daze, Woo Zhengyang could even make out pavilions, water pavilions, and palace towers on the moon shadow.
"Oh wow... resorting to your moon artifact so soon? It's useless!" Lee Yuanye scoffed. Before heading to the various Martial Mansions, Lee Yuanye had persistently begged Woo Zhengyang to fill the Invincible Cannon Car's ammunition warehouse with top-grade spirit crystals, just in case. Now Woo Zhengyang understood that the "just in case" was a pretext; Lee Yuanye had clearly planned to unleash his Invincible Cannon Car at the Moon Light Martial Mansion all along.
With a warehouse full of top-grade spirit crystals, Lee Yuanye was brimming with confidence, dismissing the Black-robed Holy Nun entirely.
"Boom..." The Invincible Cannon Car's barrel fired another massive energy blast, once again targeting the main hall of the Moon Light Martial Mansion. It seemed Lee Yuanye wouldn't stop until he had demolished the main hall.
Just as Lee Yuanye made his move, the Black-robed Holy Nun, who had been standing in front of the Invincible Cannon Car, suddenly appeared in front of the main hall, slashing toward the glowing orb.
"Crack..."
The Black-robed Holy Nun's counterattack was swift. Her blade struck the orb before it could travel far, causing it to explode. This time, the explosion was close enough to the Invincible Cannon Car that it shook violently before coming to a stop, showcasing its power.
"Wow, you can teleport too? Let's see how many times you can block this!" Lee Yuanye exclaimed, furiously activating the sphere in his hand. He adjusted all the cannons to aim at the main hall of the Moon Light Martial Mansion.
"Congratulations, you've successfully angered me!" came the voice of the Black-robed Holy Nun from the front, as she reappeared before the Invincible Cannon Car.
"So what if you're angry? You think I'm scared just because you're the queen of the Moon Light Martial Mansion? I'm not your servant," Lee Yuanye retorted, still unfazed and taking another jab at the men of the Moon Light Martial Mansion.
"Try me and see!" the Black-robed Holy Nun replied coldly, the moonlit silhouette behind her growing clearer.
Meanwhile, Woo Zhengyang felt as if the sky had darkened.
At first, Woo Zhengyang thought the moonlight behind the Black-robed Holy Nun had simply grown brighter, making the surroundings seem dimmer. But soon, he realized something was off. The world around him had indeed darkened significantly, while the moonlight behind the woman became more vivid, almost like a real full moon.
Looking up, Woo Zhengyang noticed that the moon artifact atop the Moon Light Martial Mansion, once exceptionally bright, had dimmed as if all its power had gathered behind the woman.
"Impressive, do you think you can handle this?" Woo Zhengyang asked, not too worried but still curious.
"Relax, no matter how strong he is, he can't surpass the Martial King Stage. Even if he's a top-tier Martial King, he'd still be no match for me one-on-one. Watch me fire a few shots at her first, then I'll take her down," Woo Zhengyang said, preparing to fire again.
"A top-tier Martial King? Is that so?" the Black-robed Holy Nun suddenly sneered, and her crescent blade slashed down fiercely!
In an instant, the moonlight behind her dimmed slightly, but the crescent blade in her hand shone brightly, clearly infused with all the power from behind her.
"Boom..."
The crescent-shaped blade seemed almost tangible as it slashed fiercely against the light shield of the Invincible Cannon Car. The shield held firm, but the entire vehicle lurched downward under the immense force, nearly toppling off the mountain.
"What the heck is going on?" Lee Yuanye exclaimed, just as the Black-robed Holy Nun's second strike descended.
"Crash..."
Again, the shield remained intact. Woo Zhengyang, who had once elevated his skills to the Martial Emperor level, wasn't worried about the shield breaking. However, the mountain beneath the Invincible Cannon Car trembled, a small section crumbling away, causing the vehicle to tilt precariously.
"Darn it, what's happening!" Lee Yuanye shouted in frustration, as Woo Zhengyang finally sensed something was amiss.
At that moment, the Black-robed Holy Nun's third strike came crashing down.
"Crash..."
With this blow, the mountain beneath the Invincible Cannon Car collapsed entirely. Without support, the vehicle tumbled down, eventually wedging itself between two peaks.
As the third strike fell, Woo Zhengyang realized the danger and quickly grabbed onto a cannon barrel, preventing himself from being thrown off.
Lee Yuanye wasn't so lucky. The only thing he could grab onto was the stone platform, but he had once mentioned that the items on it were incredibly delicate and had to be handled with care. So, he had nothing to hold onto.
After the Invincible Cannon Car rolled over, Lee Yuanye was thrown to the side. However, being an expert at the Martial King level, he quickly grabbed onto something to steady himself. Otherwise, he might have been tossed right out of the protective barrier.
"What just happened?" Woo Zhengyang was dumbfounded. The Invincible Cannon Car, which had been so imposing moments ago, was now in a sorry state, and even the two people inside looked a bit disheveled.
"How is this possible? How could your power reach the Sovereign level?" Lee Yuanye, too shocked to care about the Invincible Cannon Car, stared at the Black-robed Holy Nun in disbelief.
"Didn't your father ever tell you not to mess with the Moon Light Martial Mansion? Even your father has never set foot in our mansion. Do you know why?"
"Don't tell me you reached the strength of a Martial Sovereign by borrowing the power of that big moon. That's impossible..."
"No, it's not by borrowing the power of our sacred artifact that I can reach the Sovereign level. I can naturally break through to the Sovereign level as long as I don't leave the mansion's grounds!"
"Dang, does this big moon have that kind of feature too?" Lee Yuanye was on the verge of tears.
