1024: Go to Canglan City
"Your Excellency, Great True Lord, is truly righteous!"
Hearing Wang Chen’s words, Thunder True Lord Yang Xin was filled with awe, his face full of admiration.
After experiencing a great battle with four Late Stage Undead Ninth-rank powerhouses, he still had to rush to attack Dead Spirit Canglan City…
What kind of spirit was this?
He was simply a role model among the Netherworld Human Clan!
However…
"Your Excellency, Great True Lord, you should prioritize your own body. After such a major battle, you must have consumed a lot, there's no need to be so urgent."
Thunder True Lord Yang Xin advised after expressing his admiration:
"We were worried when we saw your battle with the Undead powerhouses earlier, and we urgently sent a message to the Holy Land, requesting support from the Grand Elder. It is estimated that in some time, several Great True Lord Seniors will arrive here."
"I believe it would be safer to wait for the Great True Lord Seniors to arrive, and then we can jointly attack Dead Spirit Canglan City!"
"Oh?"
Wang Chen was stunned upon hearing this, then smiled.
"Yang City Lord, you are thoughtful, but I am in excellent condition now, better than ever before, and it won't take much time to destroy Dead Spirit Canglan City."
"If the Great True Lord Seniors arrive at Wanshou City, I will have to trouble Yang City Lord and everyone else to receive them first. After I deal with Dead Spirit Canglan City, I will go to pay my respects."
Looking at Thunder True Lord Yang Xin and the others, Wang Chen's tone was very polite, with kindness in his eyes.
Among these people, only Thunder True Lord Yang Xin's strength reached the Ninth-rank Middle Stage, while the rest were only Ninth-rank Early Stage. Such strength, while considered powerful throughout the Human Race and the entire Netherworld, was absolutely insufficient in the face of Late Stage Ninth-rank powerhouses.
To discover the great battle outside the city, to come out and investigate, and to send messages requesting reinforcements.
Regardless of what these people were thinking, their actions were enough for Wang Chen to remember them and develop a good impression.
As for…
Waiting for the Human Race's Great True Lord powerhouses to arrive at Wanshou City before attacking Dead Spirit Canglan City, that was unnecessary.
Wang Chen was already short on experience points, so there was no need to trouble these Seniors.
"Since that is the case, then we will wait in Wanshou City for Your Excellency, Great True Lord, to return victorious."
Seeing Wang Chen's persistence, Thunder True Lord Yang Xin and the others could only respectfully say.
"Mm!"
Wang Chen nodded.
Then he turned and flew towards Canglan City.
Over there, a large number of experience gift packages awaited him for harvesting.
… …
… …
Tonight.
Dead Spirit Canglan City was enveloped in an extremely somber atmosphere.
Especially after the earth-shattering battle in the darkness outside the city concluded, this somber atmosphere among the remaining Undead high-ranking officials in the city showed a tendency to develop into despair.
At this moment.
On the towering city walls of Canglan City, teams of elite Undead Warriors stood ready, their gazes vigilantly scanning the dark areas where the light from the Guardian Array's defensive barrier could not reach.
The full-powered Guardian Array's defensive barrier emitted a bright yellow light, casting a heavy glow over everything below, making the illuminated Undead feel warm and full of strength.
However, this feeling could not make these Undead feel at ease.
"What exactly happened outside?"
"Such terrifying power fluctuations, even the deceased Ogre City Lord probably couldn't achieve that, right?"
"It felt like it was going to destroy the heavens and earth!!"
A patrolling team of Undead Warriors fearfully scanned the dark areas beyond the light of the Guardian Array's defensive barrier. The silence after the clamor made their bodies tremble constantly.
It was as if a terrifying Vicious Beast was hidden within, ready to leap out at any moment, open its gaping maw, and devour the entire Canglan City like a snack.
"I heard the captain of the team that we exchanged with earlier say that Kaen City Lord left the city with three Lords not long ago. Perhaps that commotion was caused by Kaen City Lord and them."
At this moment, sensing the fearful atmosphere within the team, the patrol captain couldn't help but say:
"Now that everything has returned to calm, it should be that Kaen City Lord and the others have dealt with that damned Human Race who dared to offend the dignity of our Holy Race!"
"After tonight, we might very well have the ban lifted, and then we won't be as busy as this. I'll treat everyone to a good time in the city."
Hearing the captain's words, the fear on the faces of the other Undead Warriors in the queue dissipated somewhat.
"Really?"
"No wonder the commotion was so terrifying, so it was Kaen City Lord who made a move!"
"He is one of the top powerhouses of our Holy Race, ranking among the City Lords of the Upper Five Cities. With him making a move, that Human Race definitely cannot escape!"
"That's great, we finally don't have to be on tenterhooks anymore. Do you know? Every day I worry that that damned Human Race will attack Canglan City and wipe us out like those unfortunate gathering places below!"
"Hiss! I heard that those gathering places were slaughtered, not even a single survivor was left. The Human Race is simply too ferocious!"
The atmosphere within the team became lively, no longer as fearful as before. At the same time, due to the appearance of a certain Human Race, these Undead Warriors became united against a common enemy.
However.
Compared to his subordinates, the Undead patrol captain's mood was not so pleasant.
Was the situation outside really as he guessed?
He didn't know!
But he knew that the days ahead would likely not be peaceful!
Ogre City Lord is dead, Lord Rondo is dead, Lord Sosis is dead…
A total of eight Ninth-rank powerhouses died in Canglan City, and the subordinate gathering places that were destroyed exceeded five.
Such losses were even greater than those heard about Blade City previously!
In the eyes of this Undead patrol captain, the coming days would definitely be chaotic.
Their current peaceful life was gone, and the terrifying racial war recorded in the clan's books would begin again!
"Alas!"
The Undead patrol captain sighed in his heart as he looked at his subordinates who were still looking forward to what they would do after their shift tonight.
Being simple-minded was also a kind of happiness!
"Alright, just honestly patrol…"
At this moment, seeing another patrol team approaching from the opposite side, the captain opened his mouth to tell his subordinates to quiet down.
However, before he could finish his sentence, a scolding voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
"What kind of conduct is this, being noisy during patrol?"
"You truly have no regard for the rules!"
As the voice sounded, a figure in a black robe with an indifferent expression appeared beside this patrol team.
The moment he appeared, a terrifying pressure descended, instantly making the elite Undead Warriors of the patrol team feel difficulty breathing.
"Lord Turen?!"
"We know our mistake, please forgive us, Lord."
Only the patrol captain barely resisted, but seeing the suddenly appearing black-robed figure, he dared not say anything more and could only quickly kneel on the ground, begging for mercy.
