<h4>Chapter 839: Chapter 839: Crisis Returns</h4>


    "Captain, what about the two of us?"


    Peter Martin looked at Liehuo, pointed to himself and Alice, and asked in confusion.


    Being an Earth Rankbat power within the team, he didn’t want to just watch Liehuo and Chen Feng put in the effort; that would make him feel uneasy.


    Alice shared the same thought.


    Hearing this, Liehuo turned to Chen Feng and asked, "Brother Chen, what should they do?"


    "It’s simple. Once the charge begins, the Captain and I will be responsible for the team’s outer defenses."


    "As for the two of you, you need to release True Qi to form a True Qi Protection Shield for the secondyer of defense, while also protecting the other team members!"


    Chen Feng said calmly.


    "Understood!"


    Upon hearing this, Peter Martin and Alice both nodded.


    Although they also wanted to fight on the front line,


    unfortunately, the two of them weren’t using Fire Element True Qi, which couldn’t inflict much damage on the soul-chasing wasps.


    So, they had to stay behind to protect the other team members.


    However, this task was still daunting, and they dared not take it lightly.


    Once everything was decided, there was no hesitating. They got to work right away.


    Everyone quickly arranged the defense formation.


    Apart from Chen Feng and Liehuo,


    all others were positioned in the center of the formation, protected by Peter Martin and Alice.


    Chen Feng and Liehuo, however, were stationed on the left and right sides of the team, ready to fend off the charging soul-chasing wasps.


    With everything prepared, everyone took a deep breath and started advancing towards the territory of the soul-chasing wasps.


    At first, everyone moved quietly.


    If they could pass through without alerting the soul-chasing wasps, it would be ideal.


    Unfortunately, this was impossible.


    They had just stepped into the wasps’ territory when they were detected by the vignt wasps.


    Just two buzzing sounds were heard.


    Suddenly, all the soul-chasing wasps that had been perched on the tree trunks fluttered up.


    They flew from both sides of the trees towards the Liehuo Team.


    There were hundreds and thousands of soul-chasing wasps.


    Flying together, they resembled two dark, oppressive clouds sweeping towards the Liehuo Team.


    The collective buzzing was thunderous, causing the team’s ears to ache.


    At that moment, the Liehuo Team members felt chills all over their bodies.


    Everyone felt their scalps tingle.


    Honestly, they’d rather face a fierce beast than so many soul-chasing wasps.


    This was truly terrifying.


    Fortunately, they were well-prepared and had a n, so they didn’t panic.


    Liehuo and Chen Feng exchanged a nce, then both released their me True Qi from within, forming a ming shield over their bodies.


    After all, while protecting the team members, they first needed to ensure they couldn’t get hurt.


    Peter Martin and Alice also didn’t hesitate, immediately releasing True Qi to form a True Qi Protection Shield, safeguarding the members in the center.


    At this point, everything was ready.


    And the swarm of soul-chasing wasps arrived on cue.


    "Attack!"


    Liehuo shouted, waving me True Qi to directly meet the insect swarm attacking from the right.


    Chen Feng charged towards the swarm on his side as well.


    It must be said, me True Qi is indeed the nemesis of these soul-chasing wasps!


    Without even using martial arts, the two of them managed to knock down a significant number of wasps with pure me True Qi.


    However, they didn’t linger in battle.


    After all, this was the wasps’ territory, and the number of soul-chasing wasps was endless.


    Even if they exhausted all their True Qi, they might not be able to finish them off.


    So, while attacking the wasps, they also covered the team’s advancement.


    Their task was to intercept the soul-chasing waspsing from both sides, ensuring they didn’t attack the team members in the center.


    And that’s all there was to it!


    "Boom!"


    Liehuo mobilized me True Qi, enveloping his fist, and punched into the swarm.


    Immediately, a dozen soul-chasing wasps were scorched and fell to the ground.


    But soon, more wasps came flying.


    Chen Feng’s situation was the same.


    After he pped a few dozen wasps to death, another massive wave surged towards him.


    The soul-chasing wasps seemed intelligent, knowing the two of them posed the greatest threat.


    So nearly all of them were swarming towards them, desperatelyunching attacks.


    But this was exactly what they wanted.


    At least this way, the members in the center were safe.


    As long as they could hold on, they would make it through.


    And at this speed, the Liehuo Team could soon break out of the wasp territory.


    However, while the ideal was bountiful, the reality was brutal.


    As themotion continued to grow, more and more soul-chasing wasps were drawn in, surrounding Chen Feng and Liehuo.


    This increased the pressure on them significantly.


    Moreover, as they moved deeper into the wasp territory, Chen Feng and Liehuo noticed that the color of the wasps began to change gradually.


    Originally, the wasps looked identical to normal yellow wasps, apart from beingrger.


    But once they entered the deeper parts of the territory,


    the newly approaching wasps were no longer yellow; their bodies were entirely ck, exuding a ck aura.


    Furthermore, their resistance to mes had increased significantly.


    Initially, when Chen Feng pped them with me True Qi, he could burn dozens of wasps at once.


    But these pure ck wasps, even after getting hit by me True Qi, only got burned and pushed back, quickly flying up again.


    Unless hit directly, they were hard to kill.


    This made both Chen Feng and Liehuo frown.


    They exchanged nces, seeing a hint of seriousness in each other’s eyes.


    It seemed that the wasp territory wasn’t as simple as it appeared.


    Perhaps these ck ones were the real soul-chasing wasps!


    There was no choice; they had to use all their resources, mobilizing arge amount of me True Qi, even employing martial arts, to deal with these ck wasps.


    The goal was to block these wasps and sessfully cover the team’s advancement.


    This, however, significantly increased the True Qi consumption rate for both of them.


    Luckily, Chen Feng could replenish while consuming, thanks to the Tianqi Holy Pearl.


    As for Liehuo, being an Earth Rank Late Stage expert, he could still hold on.


    However, these ck wasps were much smarter than the previous ones.


    They secretly split a small group to attack the other team members in the center.


    At that moment, both Chen Feng and Liehuo were encircled by the swarm and couldn’t intercept them.


    Fortunately, Peter Martin and Alice, both Earth Rank experts, were there.


    The siblings’ True Qi Protection Shield temporarily held off the ck wasps.


    But as more ck wasps attacked,


    and with the siblings’ True Qi not being of the Fire Element,


    the True Qi Protection Shield began to look increasingly precarious.


    Moreover, the ck aura from the ck wasps seemed to corrode the True Qi.


    This caused the siblings to deplete their True Qi rapidly.


    Even though they gave it their all, the True Qi Protection Shield became increasingly fragile, covered in cracks, on the verge of breaking apart.


    And once the True Qi Protection Shield shattered, the team members in the center would face certain death!
