1026: Trampling Canglan City (Part 2)

Boom!

As the rapidly approaching massive ball of light was sighted, a thunderous roar followed.

A violent wave of Qi, carrying terrifying power, slammed into the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier, creating ripples across it.

This terrifying commotion filled all the Undead Warriors guarding the city walls with immense fear.

And Turen…

Not only were his eyes filled with terror, but his entire body had begun to tremble.

Within that ball of light, he saw an incredibly familiar figure.

It was a handsome Human Race youth, like an immortal banished from the heavens, stepping out of a painting.

Wang Chen!

Wang Chen?

Wang Chen?!!

Turen trembled, silently repeating the name in his heart, and with each repetition, his fear magnified.

This wasn't due to his cowardice; it was because Wang Chen's previous achievements were simply too terrifying!

Leaving aside the destroyed subordinate gathering places of Canglan City, just the number of Ninth-Order Undead killed in Canglan City alone reached eight.

Among these eight Ninth-Order Undead, there was even Ogre, the Lord of Canglan City, who was at the Peak of the Middle Stage of the Ninth-Order.

Furthermore, Wang Chen had also successfully escaped several times from Kahn, who possessed Late Stage Ninth-Order strength.

Such terrifying strength left Turen with no thought of resisting him.

If he were to encounter Wang Chen outside, he would probably immediately start thinking about how he should die.

However, with the protection of the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier at this moment, although Turen was afraid, he still retained a sliver of rationality and wasn't completely overwhelmed by fear.

“Everyone, heed my command! Send a signal to notify all warriors to get on the city walls!”

Turen first channeled his magic power and shouted loudly, making the warriors who had fallen into fear regain their senses, then looked with a grim expression at Wang Chen, who was continuously approaching outside.

Something was wrong!

Not long ago, Kahn had left the city with three Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouses from the Holy Land, clearly intending to target Wang Chen.

The terrifying battle that appeared in their senses also proved this conjecture correct.

But why?

Wang Chen was now outside Canglan City?!

Turen was completely baffled; at this moment, he didn't even consider the possibility that Kahn and the other three Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouses from the Holy Land had been killed by Wang Chen.

After all, that was too fantastical!

Wang Chen’s strength had him fleeing miserably when facing Kahn last night; how could he possibly be a match for four Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouses working together today?

Turen merely speculated that Kahn and the three Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouses from the Holy Land had likely encountered a Great True Lord of the Human Race, leading to a heaven-shaking battle.

“The Guardian Array’s defensive barrier is sufficient to withstand the attacks of an ordinary Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouse for fifteen minutes. With this time, if I send out a signal, Kahn and the other three adults will surely be able to rush over for support.”

Thinking silently to himself, Turen gradually suppressed his panic and became calm again.

That’s right, with the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier in place, why should he fear Wang Chen? This wasn’t the wilderness; there was no need to worry at all.

He just needed to stay safely within the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier and wait for Kahn and the other three adults from the Holy Land to return for reinforcement.

With this thought, Turen even had the leisure to carefully observe Wang Chen, who was gradually approaching the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier.

It had to be said that Wang Chen, who had recently risen to fame among the Human Race and garnered countless hatreds among the Dead Spirit Race, had a remarkably impressive appearance.

Even by the Dead Spirit Race’s aesthetic standards, they had to admit that he possessed a perfectly flawless face.

Moreover, the extremely dense, almost terrifying, Qi and blood energy radiating from Wang Chen made Turen’s eyes burn with desire.

Their Dead Spirit Race had the innate talent to cultivate by devouring flesh and blood; if he could devour Wang Chen, his strength would likely immediately increase to the Peak of the Middle Stage of the Ninth-Order, reaching the level once held by Lord Ogre.

It was just a pity that such a delicious and highly nourishing blood meal was not something he could covet; it would surely be divided among Kahn and the other three adults from the Holy Land.

“Turen, what’s going on? Why has Wang Chen suddenly appeared outside our Canglan City?”

At this moment, the other three Ninth-Order Undead of Canglan City flew from the city to the city wall. Seeing Wang Chen rapidly approaching outside the city, their pupils constricted, and they urgently asked Turen.

Wang Chen’s fierce reputation now could stop children from crying at night in Canglan City, almost becoming a new nightmare legend for the Dead Spirit Race. Not only did ordinary Dead Spirits fear him like a tiger, but even they, these Ninth-Order Undead, were terribly afraid.

“How should I know why he suddenly appeared outside Canglan City?”

Facing his companions’ questions, Turen rolled his eyes, then said with a somewhat superior tone:

“You don’t need to worry about Wang Chen. The Guardian Array’s defensive barrier is enough to stop him. When Lord Kahn and the others return, if he doesn’t retreat, he will only die here!”

Turen at this moment had clearly forgotten that when he first saw Wang Chen appear, he had behaved even more disgracefully than his companions.

However, upon hearing his words, the three Ninth-Order Undead who had landed on the city wall did not object.

Leaving aside where Turen’s sense of superiority came from, they all had sufficient confidence in the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier.

After all, the Guardian Array’s defensive strength had been tested during the two-race war centuries ago; it was absolutely no problem for it to hold out for enough time.

“By the way, where did Lord Kahn go? Was the terrifying power fluctuation that erupted outside the city earlier related to Lord Kahn?”

At this moment, with their minds settled, the three Ninth-Order Undead all turned their heads to look at Turen, who appeared particularly composed.

“Indeed, that terrifying battle outside the city earlier was caused by Lord Kahn.”

“And not just Lord Kahn; there were also three of our clan’s Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouses involved, so, Wang Chen, we have absolutely no need to worry!”

Turen nodded faintly, seemingly very pleased with this feeling of being the center of attention.

“That… that’s simply wonderful!”

Hearing Turen’s words, the three Ninth-Order Undead were invigorated, and joyous smiles appeared on their faces.

Canglan City now possessed four Late Stage Ninth-Order powerhouses; such a lineup would not even flinch against a Holy Land from the Human Race side.

No wonder Turen looked so confident and unworried; it turned out he had known this news all along.

The three Ninth-Order Undead thought to themselves, their gazes towards Turen taking on a different look, clearly believing that he held more weight in Lord Kahn’s heart than they did.

The position of Lord of Canglan City would probably belong to Turen!

For a moment, the expressions of the three Ninth-Order Undead were filled with envy and jealousy.

And at the same time.

Wang Chen flew outside Canglan City, looking down from above at the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier of Canglan City below, and the Undead on the city walls.
