Chapter 858: Chapter 858

According to Lupus's initial plan, he intended to wait until he fully controlled the Void Lord Core, enhancing his power to the fourth stage of Divine Transformation before capturing Bai Fu.

This way, even if the capture failed, he could rely on his superior power to leave safely without worrying about falling into a trap and losing a body for nothing.

However, an unexpected situation arose on the Painter's side, leading Titan Industry to plan to take action against Bai Fu.

How could this be allowed?

Given that Titan Industry is one of the three Cosmic Level Civilizations, once Bai Fu is captured and locked in the Little Black Room, it would become exponentially more difficult for him to target Bai Fu's ability and the Cosmic Treasure on her.

He couldn't wait any longer; he had to make a bold move immediately!

Lupus devised two plans.

The first plan was to kidnap Bai Fu before Titan Industry could.

The second plan was to ambush Titan Industry's people after they captured Bai Fu and then snatch her away.

He thought for a long time and ultimately dismissed the first plan.

The main reason was the lack of time.

He was confident enough to defeat Demetri. Although both he and Demetri had undergone the third Divine Transformation, he had done so much earlier, and he also possessed a series of Void Powers.

Winning the fight was one thing, but it would definitely take a lot of time.

If Titan Industry's people suddenly showed up while he was still locked in battle with Demetri, it would be troublesome.

Better to intercept Titan Industry's route.

Titan Industry would surely be significantly depleted after a fierce battle, providing him with an opportunity. Titan Industry would never expect him to appear suddenly. When that happens, he'd snatch Bai Fu and make a swift getaway, with practically no risk involved.

"It's all about the information gap!"

Lupus thought it through well.

Lupus executed the plan well too.

He positioned himself right along Titan Industry's retreat path, appearing so suddenly that the feuding Lei Mingdao, Zero, and Xue Quan stared at him blankly for ten seconds.

Generally speaking, ten seconds is enough for a Super Supreme to accomplish many things.

Let alone take one Bai Fu; Lupus could have taken ten Bai Fus.

But Lupus hadn't anticipated one thing—

Where's Bai Fu? Where did that big Bai Fu go?

He used every trick in the book, searching the spaceship inside and out multiple times, but he couldn't find a trace of Bai Fu. Let alone Bai Fu, he didn't even see a "human" that resembled Bai Fu, nor any device that looked capable of hiding a person!

Standing in the corridor of the spaceship, Lupus vividly enacted a scene of drawing his sword and looking around in mounting bewilderment.

After several seconds of silence, Lupus looked up, faced Lei Mingdao, and asked seriously, "Where's Bai Fu?"

Lei Mingdao instinctively replied, "Didn't capture her."

Lupus turned red with anger, his fury exploding, making his hair stand on end, spiking up his hairstyle.

During those few seconds of silence, he imagined many possibilities.

For example, Titan Industry might have anticipated this and split their forces after succeeding, with one team creating a distraction while another secretly took Bai Fu away.

Or perhaps Titan Industry employed a special teleportation device, sending Bai Fu away the moment she was captured.

Or maybe his knowledge was lacking, and he couldn't identify small hiding devices on the spaceship.

In his imagination, Titan Industry was incredibly formidable, yet suddenly they told him that things weren't as complex as he thought, they simply failed to capture her.

Lupus cursed out loud.

Then why did he come here?

In an instant, Lupus realized he needed to make a hasty retreat.

Simultaneously, Lei Mingdao and the others also realized that damn Lupus had infiltrated and that his target was Bai Fu. They needed to deal with him.

Lei Mingdao shouted in anger.

This time, Xue Quan coordinated exceptionally well. Even before Lei Mingdao finished shouting, Xue Quan had already deployed Lost Home.

This was a speed born of anger.

As the granddaughter of the Industrial Committee's Chairman, Xue Quan had always been proud, but this time, not only was she frightened into fleeing by Bai Fu, but she also endured Lei Mingdao and Zero's sarcastic remarks for ages, leaving her with pent-up anger with no outlet.

Oh, Lupus, you've come, so let's vent this rage on you!

Under the blockade of Lost Home, Lupus's spatial traversal ability, like Bai Fu's, lost its targeting functionality.

With one flash, by sheer coincidence, he found himself between Lei Mingdao and Zero. Fınd the newest release on NovєlFіre.net

Lei Mingdao and Zero weren't going to be polite to Lupus at this time, so they immediately summoned everyone on the spaceship to join in on subduing Lupus.

An epic battle ensued.

Lupus's power was indeed stronger than Demetri's, so even with Lei Mingdao and others employing all their techniques, they could only manage a stalemate with him.

But that was enough; Lei Mingdao and the others didn't expect to kill Lupus outright. As long as they could restrain him, once Titan Industry's reinforcements arrived, Lupus would be dead.

Taking down Lupus would mean their excursion wasn't completely fruitless.

As for the fallout with Rebirth Empire over capturing Bai Fu, that wasn't something they needed to worry about now. If anyone was to blame, it was the spy who leaked the information!

If it weren't for that leak, the Empire and Bai Fu wouldn't have known about their operation. If the Empire and Bai Fu hadn't known, even if Bai Fu had risen up and taken down Galini, they still would have had a great chance to capture Bai Fu, possibly stalling for time and calling for reinforcements.
