God-Tier Fishing System-Chapter 689

"Do not be deceived by her appearance. She has the heart of a viper and kills without blinking. All the brothers who followed me met their tragic end at her hands."

"Erna is one of the Moonfall Clan’s most elite shadow guards."

"Her cultivation stands at the peak of the Ultimate Supreme Realm. Even Darron, the City Lord of Flying Snow City, who shares her realm, cannot compare to her true combat strength."

"Their side is too powerful, Young Master Ethan."

"We must withdraw."

"Once we reach the White North Ice Field, the complex terrain and brutal weather will provide cover. It will not be easy for them to track us," Ryan urged urgently.

"It is merely one Perfect Supreme. There is nothing to fear," Ethan replied calmly.

Ryan was stunned.

Ethan’s indifferent tone unsettled him.

One Perfect Supreme and two Peak Ultimate Supremes stood before them.

Even if a Perfect Supreme elder of the Riverborn Clan were present, they would not dare claim absolute victory.

From where did Ethan get such confidence?

Ryan was filled with doubt.

Yet instinct told him that Ethan was not reckless. If he spoke so calmly, then perhaps he truly possessed the means.

"Ryan, you have quite the audacity."

"You slaughtered numerous elite disciples of the Moonfall Clan and dared to hide within Flying Snow City itself. Now that we have found you, surrender obediently."

Erna’s gaze was sharp and cold, a faint sinister smile curling her lips.

"If not, you know my methods. I will make you beg for life and pray for death."

"With me here, do not think of touching a single strand of his hair," Ethan said quietly, narrowing his eyes at Erna.

"Where did this ignorant brat emerge from, daring to provoke the authority of the Moonfall Clan?"

Erna’s gaze shifted to Ethan. Killing intent flickered in her eyes.

"A mere body cultivator who has not even reached the Ultimate Supreme Realm dares speak so brazenly. You truly do not understand death."

"Erna, cease the meaningless words," Werner spoke calmly.

"Capture them both. Sever their limbs and cripple their cultivation."

"Understood."

Erna inclined her head.

In the next instant, she vanished.

Her movement was like thunder erupting across the sky. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

A streak of blue light tore forward, arriving before Ethan in a single breath.

With a thought, invisible force rippled outward from Ethan. Ryan was pulled backward, dragged far from the center of the battlefield.

Ethan remained where he stood, unmoving.

A faint smile lingered on his face as he watched Erna’s lethal advance.

"Insolent."

A cold voice rang out.

A streak of black light descended like lightning and appeared before Ethan.

Lunara stepped forward and thrust her palm outward.

Black flames erupted violently.

The explosion of demonic fire blasted Erna backward.

"Where did this stray dog come from, daring to attack him?"

Lunara stood before Ethan, black dress fluttering, long hair dancing wildly in the wind.

She was both graceful and imposing, her beauty carrying a sharp and deadly edge.

"Such strength. What are these flames?"

Erna’s expression darkened.

She was forced back dozens of steps before stabilizing herself.

Her palm trembled slightly.

Residual black flames clung to her skin like parasites, creeping along her wrist and attempting to invade her body.

The searing power scorched her flesh bright red.

Only after channeling tremendous spiritual energy was she able to suppress and extinguish the strange flames.

"Who are you?" Erna demanded coldly.

"You dare interfere in the affairs of the Moonfall Clan?"

Her gaze fell upon Lunara’s stunning figure.

"A demon."

"A Peak Ultimate Demon Lord."

Erna’s pupils contracted.

The divine power radiating from Lunara was intense and oppressive, clearly superior to her own.

Demons possessed inherently resilient physiques.

In direct combat, demons of the same realm held an advantage over human cultivators.

Moreover, one who cultivated to this level possessed extraordinary bloodline strength.

It was likely a rare beast, perhaps even one of divine origin.

"A Peak Ultimate Demon Lord."

Werner and Darron both grew solemn.

"Elder Werner, that woman is indeed at the peak of the Ultimate Demon Lord Realm."

"Her aura is abnormal. An ordinary Ultimate Demon Lord would not be her match," Werner replied.

His gaze fixed upon Ethan.

"This youth has a Peak Ultimate Demon Lord as a guard. His identity cannot be simple."

Even within Ancient Clans, obtaining a Peak Ultimate Demon Lord as a clan guardian was extremely difficult.

Assigning such a being as a personal guard to a younger generation member was even more improbable.

Any demon who reached the peak of the Ultimate Demon Lord Realm was powerful enough to dominate a region.

Why would such a being willingly serve a human?

"Elder Werner, what should we do? Do we proceed?" Erna asked.

Though her combat strength was formidable, she did not have confidence in defeating a Peak Ultimate Demon Lord of equal cultivation.

This was not fear.

It was understanding.

"You are not her opponent."

"This youth’s identity is unclear. He could be a prince of the Great Verdant Imperial Family or a direct descendant of a hidden clan from a distant region."

"Our struggle with the Riverborn Clan is at a critical stage. We cannot afford complications."

"We must not act recklessly. We must confirm his background before deciding," Werner transmitted calmly.

The Moonfall Clan held overwhelming advantage.

But advantage did not equal certainty.

If they offended a faction equal to an Ancient Clan and drew intervention into the White North Ice Field, centuries of planning could collapse.

Werner stepped forward, landing before Erna.

His expression shifted.

A polite smile appeared.

"For Your Excellency to possess such a Peak Ultimate Demon Lord as a personal guard, your background must be extraordinary."

"May I inquire about your origins? Perhaps our factions have prior acquaintance."

"I am merely a rogue cultivator."

"You may not know me. But I know of the Moonfall Clan of the White North."

"You may rest assured. It is impossible for us to be acquainted," Ethan replied with a faint smile.
