Chapter 178

Because he recognized this 'person.'

Although their appearance had changed somewhat from before, she could tell from that extremely distinctive voice and tone!

The one who had come was none other than the Sloth High Priest who had appeared in the previous Ghost incident!

"What's going on? How did this guy get here!"

"Could it be that there's some kind of connection between the Monu Sect and the Akatsuki organization?"

It had to be said, the moment Sloth appeared, the already-low morale of the allied army instantly sank even further.

As a character who had appeared right from the start, although Sloth hadn't shown up many times, the impression left on everyone was indeed extremely deep.

"The Monu Sect's Sloth High Priest, is that so?"

On the other side, Ulfheim, who had taken a hit from Sloth, looked at the other party, a thick worry showing between his brows.

Since his last fight with Ace, he had also deliberately kept an eye out for news of Ace.

As for opponents who had crossed hands with Ace, he had naturally heard a bit about them as well.

Although he had been 'killed' by Ace, the one 'killed' was only a clone.

That Ace had once said that the real Sloth's strength was about the same as his.

He just hadn't expected to run into the other party here.

From what was just said, it was already clear that the other party was firmly on the Akatsuki organization's side. Once such a fellow joined the battlefield, it would inevitably make the already-stalemated battle even more unfavorable!

Ulfheim was wary, but that didn't mean Xuanwozhang Sect was the same.

Seeing Sloth make a move, the look in Xuanwozhang Sect's eyes also darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Sloth, this is an internal matter of our Akatsuki organization. I won't allow you to interfere."

His words carried a tone that brooked no opposition!

It was certain that once Sloth continued to act, his opponent would instantly shift from Ulfheim to Sloth.

Even if there were certain connections between the two!

"Oh my, don't mind me. I have no intention of interfering — I just saw you weren't being diligent enough and couldn't resist stepping in, that's all."

Saying so, Sloth directly found a spot that could shield from the rain, sat down with his arms folded, showing not the slightest intention of making a move.

Seeing this, Xuanwozhang Sect said nothing either, but turned his gaze back to Ulfheim.

And looking at this scene, Ulfheim's expression was also extremely ugly.

Although Sloth not joining the fight was a good thing for them, it likewise showed that Xuanwozhang Sect intended to deal with the allied army using the Akatsuki organization's strength alone.

"Baseless arrogance will cost you dearly!"

Ulfheim was, after all, a Holy Ten, and also one of Ishugar's Four Heavenly Kings.

At this moment, being treated with such contempt, even though he already had half his body buried in the ground, a fighting spirit couldn't help but surge up within him!

Having gone through several battles, he had also gradually figured out the other party's fighting style.

That invisible force blocking him couldn't be used continuously — there was a gap period in between.

As long as he seized this chance, it wasn't impossible to defeat the other party!

However……

"Sage Art!"

Before Ulfheim could make a move, he noticed that next to Xuanwozhang Sect's originally eerie eyes, an orange pattern had appeared, and a black line had even shown up in the middle of his eyes!

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
