The lightning dragon rushed toward the horde by following Heero.
This ti however was different from the phoenix. The phoenix exploded and swept the specters instantly.
This ti, Butcher Wang saw the lightning dragon enter the earth. Yes, the hundreds of ters long lightning dragon's head vanished as soon as it touched the ground.
There was no explosion just like the phoenix. Butcher Wang furrowed his brows, puzzled by what happened to the lightning. Nothing happened until the tail entered the earth.
However, soon, the ground was shaking and he almost fell because of this. After that, he saw the ground at where Heero landed was cracked. Beyond the crack, Butcher Wang saw bright yellow lightning, raging.
The crack spread all over the ground, then, the yellow lightning burst out from the crack, swallowing the remaining horde. The land turned into the sea of fla and lightning.
As for the horde, they vanished as if they never tried to attack the city at all.
Butcher Wang swallowed mouthful saliva. Then, he rembered Heero's words early.
What if he joined the battle? He would be roasted either in the fla or lightning.
At those thoughts, Butcher Wang's feet went weak and he plopped down on the ground. The thrill of watching the battle has reached its peak. Just watching the show from afar drained his energy.
His heart was beating fast, but he managed to calm his breath. Heero's action was truly eye-opening to him. Never crossed in his mind that a man could have this kind of power.
Recalling what he witnessed earlier, Butcher Wang blurted out subconsciously, "Can I do that too?"
"You can if you are training hard just like Sun Zhou Yi and Hirata! If you are lazing around just like what you did all this ti" Heero did not finish his words and looked at Butcher Wang while shaking his head.
Butcher Wang was a typically different person than Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata. He was the type of person that was easily satisfied with what he had.
Just like now, since he beca the champion of the Free Fighter in the Fighter Anteriority, he reduced his amount of training significantly. He thought he was on a par with Gold Class Hero and he felt it was enough.
Butcher Wang looked up, he looked at his Master's young and handso face, but his gaze was as if he was looking at a monster.
"What's with your look? Are you looking for a sparring partner?" Heero asked with a big grin.
Butcher Wang shook his head furiously. He could not even win against Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata, let alone Heero. What he could do was bullying Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun.
Butcher Wang shook his head helplessly. Then, a determined and excited look of soone resurfaced into his mind. Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata had great ambition, it was to beat their Master.
Three No, five of them, including Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun promised to take down Heero together later.
Looking at Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata's growth, he thought it was possible to take Heero down with five of them.
However, Butcher Wang was no longer optimistic about this after witnessing how Heero slaughtered the horde. No, he felt it was impossible to defeat this god-like man.
'I wonder will they give up if they witnessed what just happened?' Butcher Wang thought to himself. "They" in his mouth was Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata.
Plak!
Heero slapped Butcher Wang's head and said as if he was being able to read what was in Butcher Wang's mind, "No, they will not give up to beat ! Instead, they will be driven more into training! If I can do it, it ans they will be able to do it as well!"
"This stupid old man, I was showing you that so you will put more effort into your training. Why are you even discouraged? You should put more effort into your training and catch up!" Heero sohow pissed off upon noticing the discouraged look on Butcher Wang's face.
"I am doing this for you! With what happened today, you should know that we can't rely on the heroes. There are many creatures that are stronger than those specters. You have to rely on yourself to protect your family!"
"Hey, where's your manner? How can you slap an elder's head!" Butcher Wang complained as he rubbed his head.
Even though he said so, he fell into deep thought. He contemplated Heero's words seriously.
Butcher Wang recalled back what happened back then in Hero Do. Without two of them, the situation in the arena would beco even more chaotic.
Even after they helped to take care of the lower-tier and middle-tier seats, the heroes in guards were still overwheld by the specter in the top-tier seats.
No, he witnessed how helpless the heroes against the specters were. They had no way to win over the specters. It was understandable if they could not kill the specter, but the heroes were even beaten back by the specters.
Now he heard there was a thing that stronger than those specters.
"First, I am older than you, I am 41 this year. Second, those specters are not weak in their rank, but there is a stronger specter behind them. It just the leader behind those specters are not with them, they" Heero looked to the northwest.

"You are still alive, Su Yan!" Bai Xian Ming exclaid in surprise. But soon, his face was filled with a complex expression.
Happiness and excitent could be seen in his eyes. But a guilty and sorrow also mixed into him.
Bai Xian Ming was happy and excited to see his old friend back. But he was grieved upon seeing his old friend's face. Half of his face was burned beyond recognition.
He only managed to recognize his old friend because of the scar on the other cheek.
He was also guilty because it was he who caused all of that.
The guy called Su Yan noticed the guilt in his friend's gaze and let out a sigh, "You don't need to feel guilty, it was my choice to follow you back then, and it was also my decision to stay back!"
It happened a decade ago, Bai Xian Ming was still an Emperor Class Hero - Rank 1. At that ti, he and his other Emperor Class Heroes decided to assassinated Zombie King in the north.
Zombie King was a zombie who gained intelligence just like a human or even more cunning. This Zombie King had a huge force in the north.
The Emperor Class Heroes from Rank 1-10 took initiative to assassinate the Zombie King before they retired. They wanted to do this so the next generation could fully eradicate this danger from the Earth.
Bai Xian Ming was the one who proposed this assassination and the other heroes agreed. Su Yan was one of the heroes, Emperor Class Hero - Rank 4 at that ti.
They sneaked into the enemy's core region and found the Zombie King's dwelling.
They thought ten of them were enough to assassinate the Zombie King. But they overestimated their capability, Zombie King was far stronger than they expected.
The assassination failed and they were forced to face the Zombie King head-on. What despaired the group was they found that there were three Zombie Kings in total.
The ten Emperor Class Heroes realized they could not win against the three Zombie Kings.
At that ti, Su Yan and Shi Zhongxian, the Emperor Class Hero - Rank 4, and Rank 9 volunteered themselves to stay, buying ti for the other heroes to escape.
Bai Xian Ming thought Su Yan and Shi Zhongxian were killed. But now he t with his old friend again. He was happy but also felt guilty inside.
"But why? Why did you the Shadow Fang to attack us?" Bai Xian Ming thought it was related to the operation ten years ago.
"I told you, you don't need to feel guilty for the past! Furthermore, you also helped to take care of my family. I am grateful for all you did to my family!"
Then Su Yan looked to his surroundings, the battle between the heroes and the specters continued. Many heroes fell as the battle went on, but Su Yan only looked at the heroes expressionlessly.
"My action has nothing to do with the past! I am leading these monsters because this is a war between a race, between humans and specters!"
After Su Yan finished his words, his appearance changed. Four horns appeared on his forehead, two pairs of wings grew on his back, and his eyes turned reds while his skin darkened.
"I am no longer human, but a specter! Let's fight for the last ti, Old Friend!"
