930: Surprise brought by Yang Xin
Among the Upper Five Cities of the Dead Spirit Race, Black Abyss City ranks third.
Its City Lord Karn broke through to the Late Stage of the ninth rank one hundred and ten years ago, making him one of the top ten powerhouses in the entire Dead Spirit Race.
At this moment.
After Karn spoke, High Priest High Priest Tiemoluo pondered for a moment before nodding.
"Then you, Karn, will make your move, but your target is Wang Chen; do not indiscriminately attack the Human Race's gathering places."
High Priest Tiemoluo instructed, looking at Karn.
"Understood."
Karn respectfully nodded, indicating his understanding, then he asked:
"High Priest, if I personally make a move, Wang Chen will undoubtedly die, but how do we lure him out of Wanshou City?"
Karn was very confident in his own strength, but he also knew that the Human Race's habits were different from the Dead Spirit Race's; they rested at night and emerged during the day.
When the two worlds, the inner and outer, merged at night, the Human Race would not leave their dwellings unless absolutely necessary.
"You don't need to worry about that."
High Priest High Priest Tiemoluo waved his hand and slowly said:
"I will have Vast Treasure True Lord of the Human Race figure out a way for this matter, and then Cassidy will assist you; she will contact Vast Treasure True Lord on your behalf."
Upon hearing this, Karn had no more doubts, and bowing, he took Cassidy and withdrew.
After Karn left, High Priest High Priest Tiemoluo also waved his hand, dismissing the other Dead Spirit powerhouses.
When only he remained in the temple, the solemn expression on his face still hadn't faded.
"What are you worried about?"
Just then, an ethereal voice suddenly echoed in the temple.
At the eyes of the giant Mother Goddess Statue, a shimmering divine light had appeared at some unknown time.
"It's just a Human Race child; it will be easy for Karn to kill him."
"I hope so."
High Priest Tiemoluo leaned against the altar, the solemn expression on his face showing no signs of easing.
"I just have a strange feeling that something big is about to happen."
"I don't know if this is an omen from the Mother Goddess or if I am worrying needlessly."
...
...
After one night.
The ripples caused by the Battle of Wanshou City continued to spread throughout the entire Netherworld, making Wang Chen's name once again resound across the world, becoming a topic of conversation for countless people after meals.
However, Wang Chen did not feel excited about this; he only felt incredibly troubled.
This entire morning, visitors came in an endless stream; the stack of visiting cards alone was as tall as a person.
Although most of them were turned away, just receiving visitors from other Holy Lands and those few super-first-rate forces made Wang Chen feel incredibly exhausted.
Dealing with these cunning old foxes was even more tiring than his battle with a wisp of Hua Teng Great True Lord's Divided Soul last night.
"I'm really working too hard for new Beast Pets!"
Sitting in a chair, Wang Chen propped his chin and sighed.
He hadn't found a suitable Beast Pet among those Bai Yuliang had acquired, so he could only find a way to expand the scope of his search.
The representatives of the various forces stationed in Wanshou City had basically reached an agreement with him to pay more attention in the future.
As for whether they could be found, Wang Chen could only hope now.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
Just then, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Hearing the sound, Wang Chen said somewhat weakly:
"Come in."
He knew without guessing that it must be Xuanqing Snake King outside, probably with another visitor.
"My Lord."
Xuanqing Snake King pushed the door open and respectfully bowed to Wang Chen.
Then, he looked up and saw the helpless expression on Wang Chen's face, and a faint smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"What are you laughing at?"
Wang Chen glared at Xuanqing Snake King in annoyance, leaning back in his chair without any pretense and asked:
"Who sent a visiting card this time? It seems everyone in Wanshou City who is qualified to see me has already seen me."
"My Lord, it's Thunder True Lord Yang Xin, City Lord of Wanshou City."
Xuanqing Snake King stepped forward and respectfully replied.
"Hmm?"
Wang Chen frowned upon hearing this, his expression becoming somewhat surprised.
He had a good impression of Thunder True Lord Yang Xin.
However, Yang Xin was the first to arrive this morning, so why was he here again now?
Had this guy gotten addicted to visiting?
"Did he state his purpose?"
Wang Chen asked, standing up from his chair.
"Yang City Lord said that he accidentally obtained a Demonic Beast cub with the Bloodline of an ancient exotic beast and wanted to invite My Lord to appraise it."
Xuanqing Snake King answered respectfully while opening the door.
"Oh!"
"A Demonic Beast cub with the Bloodline of an ancient exotic beast?"
Wang Chen's expression shifted upon hearing this, and his steps halted.
He knew that after today's meeting, the representatives of various forces in Wanshou City would send some Beast Pet cubs to foster good relations with him.
But he didn't expect Thunder True Lord Yang Xin to be so quick; he left in the morning and was back before noon.
"Where is Yang City Lord now?"
"He is waiting in the front hall."
Upon hearing this, Wang Chen immediately quickened his pace and hurried towards the front hall.
Soon.
He saw Thunder True Lord Yang Xin drinking tea in the front hall.
"Yang City Lord's second visit truly honors me beyond measure."
Wang Chen sat opposite Yang Xin, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then asked directly:
"I heard that City Lord has a Demonic Beast cub with the Bloodline of an ancient exotic beast in his possession; may I see it now?"
Wang Chen's directness surprised Thunder True Lord Yang Xin for a moment, but he instantly reacted, a smile appearing on his face.
He saw Wang Chen's urgent need for Beast Pet cubs, which meant that if the Beast Pet cub he presented met Wang Chen's requirements, their relationship would quickly grow closer.
This was excellent for him and for the Zixiao Holy Land behind him.
"True Lord is a straightforward person, and I am here for precisely this reason, so why not?"
Yang Xin smiled, waved his hand, and directly summoned a small beast from his Spirit Pet Bag.
This small beast resembled a miniature, less-than-a-month-old calf, with dark stripes mixed in its bright yellow fur.
The moment it appeared, it was about to roar, but then it met Wang Chen's fiery gaze and instantly tucked its tail between its legs, trembling.
It looked timid.
"This is?"
Wang Chen was somewhat surprised, looking at the small creature huddled in a ball before him.
Didn't they say it had the Bloodline of an ancient exotic beast? Why is it so cowardly!
"Wang True Lord, you may not know, this beast is called Pan Cow; it possesses a trace of the Bloodline of the ancient Divine Beast Horned Azure Ox, and it is naturally able to communicate with the Law of Earth.
Standing on the ground, its strength is continuous and inexhaustible, and it is best at defense.
However, this Pan Cow is a bully; True Lord, do not be deceived by its appearance."
Thunder True Lord Yang Xin smiled and explained.
"Woo woo woo..."
Upon hearing this, before Wang Chen could speak, the little Pan Cow let out a few faint cries, seemingly in dissatisfaction, but it still looked incredibly timid.
This scene almost made Wang Chen laugh.
"Alright, let me see if you meet my requirements."
Muttering to himself, Wang Chen picked up the little Pan Cow.
