Chapter 771

"She's just too naive!" Feng Yuanjie sighed helplessly. "If Lord Su returns, I don't even know how to explain this to him—you all know Lord Su's temperament!"

He Yao sighed. "Deputy City Master, this isn't your fault. Lord Su isn't the type to hold grudges."

"Mount Dajiao is finished too!" Feng Yuanjie stared at the vortex below and let out a heavy sigh. "Captain Tong, when the tide recedes, please go to Zhanghai City and report the situation at Mount Dajiao to General Qian… I don't even know if Mount Dajiao can be rebuilt!"

"If Mount Dajiao is gone, what's left to call it Mount Dajiao?"

The speaker was the patriarch of the He family!

"That's right!" Feng Yuanjie nodded. "If Mount Dajiao is gone, what's left to call it Mount Dajiao?"

"Everything will become history!"

Reef City's high-ranking officials fell silent.

At that moment, someone pointed at the water and cried out: "Look—what's that in the water?"

Everyone turned toward the murky surface, where a straight line was faintly visible.

A dead adult Iron-Spined Blackback Crocodile floated past, blocked by the object.

The floating corpse changed direction, following the straight thin line, slanting… stumbling toward the ocean.

Bai Fa's pupils shrank. His flying-type companion flapped its wings, instantly creating a gale that blew a circular water hole a hundred meters in diameter through the floodwaters flowing back to the sea!

And the straight thin line revealed its true form!

It wasn't a thin line—it was an ice axe!

The ice axe pierced through the circular water hole, as if splitting it in two.

Many parts of its originally sharp edge were chipped and broken, yet its original shape was still faintly discernible.

The straight line they had seen was merely one section where the blade remained relatively intact…

When the people of Reef City saw the ice axe barely holding its original form, an absurd thought suddenly struck them!

Feng Yuanjie gasped: "How is this possible?"

Bai Fa did not answer Feng Yuanjie. He commanded his king-tier flying-type companion to blast fierce winds along the direction of the ice axe's blade.

The people of Reef City grew more and more excited!

The massive ice axe, stretching thousands of meters above Mount Dajiao, still barely retained its original shape!

That meant the tsunami from above had inflicted almost no damage on Reef City!

That force had been split and dispersed by the giant ice axe…

If the top was untouched, then what about the front?

"Splash!"

He Yao, Reef City's chief captain, abandoned his flying-type companion and leapt into the raging tide!

"Splash!"

Heishark, leader of the Tiger Shark Mercenary Company, dove headfirst into the water!

"Splash!"

"Splash!"

"…"

Many platinum- and star-rank beastmasters with excellent swimming skills either jumped directly into the tide or released their companions!

The tide was murky, making it hard to discern what lay ahead.

But for this group of beastmasters who had spent their lives by the sea, this was no problem at all!

He Yao surfaced first and shouted loudly: "Reef City still stands! Reef City still stands! Reef City is unharmed!"

One by one, beastmasters and water-type companions emerged from the tide.

"Reef City is safe!"

"The tsunami didn't destroy Reef City!"

"Deputy Liu is incredible!"

"Reef City held firm!"

"…"

Beastmasters and civilians above Reef City wept with joy.

"I must see it for myself!"

The patriarch of Reef City's He family abandoned his flying-type companion and plunged straight into the tide.

He simply wanted to confirm it himself, personally.

Time passed slowly. The tide either retreated into the sea, pooled in depressions, or flowed into rivers and streams.

Mount Dajiao slowly emerged before their eyes.

The entire Mount Dajiao remained frozen in ice.

Only the giant 750-type ice axe positioned directly above Mount Dajiao and vertically to its east suffered severe damage… everywhere else, there was almost no damage at all.

The giant ice axe Liu Mengyun had last condensed had completely shattered and dispersed the force striking Mount Dajiao!

That was why Mount Dajiao remained intact!

Through the thick ice layer, survivors could faintly see Reef City's gray-black stone buildings, its narrow streets, the flying-type companions frozen mid-air, and the panicked crowds packed upon them.

Everything had been frozen in the instant the cold energy erupted!

The stunningly beautiful white-haired female soldier still stood atop the rooftop of Reef City's City Master's building.

Her expression was calm, even cold.

She spread her arms, as if welcoming the tsunami.

Her long white hair, swirling in the air, was also frozen in that exact moment!

Many beastmasters landed on Bingshan, their gazes fixed on Liu Mengyun.

Their eyes were filled with reverence and admiration!

Bai Cang stared at the frozen Liu Liu Mengyun, his eyes glinting with a hint of obsession.

Any Beast Tamer who has seen Liu Liu Mengyun will likely never forget her for the rest of their life!

Especially… after today!

Even Xi Yao, a woman herself, kept her eyes locked on Liu Liu Mengyun without ever looking away.

Feng Feng Yuanjie asked, "Manager Bai, how long can the person inside the Ice Coffin endure?"

"It depends on their physical constitution!"
