63: siege

“I have a feeling there might be a war,” Liu Jiangyi muttered, looking at the gloomy sky.

“War?” Ya Ya was startled, then quickly shook her head, saying, “Impossible! Our Beast King Clan never offends anyone, nor do we actively seek trouble. Who would attack us?”

“I don’t know, but if it’s not war, there wouldn’t be such an atmosphere.”

“No! I can’t just stay here. I’m going to the city wall to see!”

Ya Ya grew increasingly anxious and turned to leave.

However, as she reached the doorway, Ya Ya suddenly stopped and looked back at Liu Jiangyi, who was still standing in place.

“What are you standing there for? Come with me!”

“Huh? Me?” Liu Jiangyi pointed to his nose, shaking his head like a rattle-drum.

“No, no, no! Your father told me not to cause trouble. If he finds out I snuck out with you, you’ll definitely be fine, but what if he takes his anger out on me?”

Liu Jiangyi didn’t want to die.

He just wanted to get familiar with the environment here first, then find a way to escape.

In his opinion, the Beast King Clan was so strong that even if there was a war, he wouldn’t be in danger.

Why should he risk it?

“I don’t care!”

Ya Ya stepped forward and grabbed Liu Jiangyi’s arm, “Too many people recognize my face; you need to help me cover.”

“You…” Liu Jiangyi still wanted to persuade Ya Ya.

But Ya Ya didn’t give Liu Jiangyi a chance to resist.

Her strength was astonishing; she grabbed Liu Jiangyi and dragged him out like a little chick.

…

On the street.

The once bustling street was now tightly shut.

The city residents were all rushing towards the city walls.

As members of the Beast King Clan, each of them was a commoner, but each of them was also a warrior!

Soon, the two arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Ya Ya formed a hand seal with her right hand and patted Liu Jiangyi’s back; a surge of Demonic Qi actually flowed directly into Liu Jiangyi’s body.

Liu Jiangyi was shocked!

“Don’t be afraid, this Demonic Qi won’t harm you; it will only temporarily mask your Human Race aura.”

Ya Ya said, taking a black cloak from her qiankun bag and putting it on Liu Jiangyi, then putting one on herself as well.

“You stand in front of me and cover me as we go up,” Ya Ya commanded.

At this point, Liu Jiangyi no longer had a chance to object.

He shook his head helplessly and led Ya Ya upwards.

In fact, Liu Jiangyi was also very curious as to who dared to attack Hanshan City.

One must know that even the weakest Beastman here had a cultivation of Fifth Realm or above.

Some powerful Beastmen had auras that reached Eighth or Ninth Realm.

Even Grandmaster powerhouses like Ya Ya were countless.

The two climbed onto the city wall, where it was already a sea of people.

The Beastmen all had solemn expressions, staring intently below the city wall, their bodies filled with strong Killing Intent.

Liu Jiangyi led Ya Ya to the edge of the city wall, and they both looked down.

Boom!

With just one glance, Liu Jiangyi was stunned!

Below the city wall, ten miles away, there were dense, endless tents.

Liu Jiangyi’s eyesight was astonishing; even from ten miles away, he could see clearly.

He clearly saw that the people walking inside the tents were… humans!

“How is this possible!?”

Liu Jiangyi was greatly surprised.

“How can there be so many people in the Dimensional Trial Grounds?”

“There must be over a hundred thousand, right?”

The distance was too great for Liu Jiangyi to sense the Realm auras of these humans.

But since they could make the Beast King Clan so wary,

It was enough to show that these humans’ cultivation was definitely not weak.

Could they be people from Upper City?

Liu Jiangyi frowned, his mind quickly pondering.

“No matter where they’re from, they’re all humans. As long as they break through Hanshan City, won’t I be saved?”

Liu Jiangyi had already started to scheme in his heart.

At this moment.

A powerful pressure surged up from the tents ten miles away!

Swoosh!

A blue longsword suddenly rose into the sky, then began to expand rapidly.

In just a few breaths, that transparent blue giant sword actually grew to be half the size of Hanshan City!

The giant sword blotted out the sky, soaring into the clouds, and then hung high above Hanshan City.

This scene instantly made the Yao Beasts on the city wall turn pale with fear.

Thump, thump, thump…

Liu Jiangyi’s heart pounded wildly, and an indescribable excitement welled up in his heart!

He couldn’t believe that this was the method of a Human Race great power!

Martial Arts Grandmaster?

No, no, no!

A Martial Arts Grandmaster could absolutely not unleash such terrifying methods!

This was a powerhouse beyond a Martial Arts Grandmaster!

Such methods could not even be described as martial arts; they were practically immortal techniques!

At the same time.

Countless figures began to pour out densely from the distant tents; half of them ran quickly on the ground.

The other half actually stepped on Flying Swords and soared into the sky, heading straight for Hanshan City.

In the blink of an eye.

The Human Race powerhouses from ten miles away arrived a thousand meters outside Hanshan City.

They all stopped, then began to spread out, surrounding Hanshan City!

Om~

At the same time.

A blood-red transparent light curtain rose from around Hanshan City, enveloping the entire Hanshan City.

At this moment.

A man in white, with a fair complexion, without any aura, as if integrated with heaven and earth, stepped through the Void Realm and slowly walked into the air a hundred meters outside Hanshan City.

“Hei Yun, are you still not planning to come out?”

The man’s tone was playful; it was clearly a sentence spoken without much effort, yet every person in Hanshan City could hear it clearly.

The Beastmen all showed expressions of terror.

Facing such a great power, they couldn’t even muster the slightest thought of resistance.

Ya Ya was also scared pale, instinctively grabbing Liu Jiangyi’s arm.

After his words, a full minute passed, yet there was still no movement within Hanshan City.

“Heh heh, do I have to force you out?”

The man slightly raised his hand, then gently lowered it a fraction.

Boom!

The giant sword suspended above Hanshan City slowly descended, directly piercing the red light curtain.

Crack, crack, crack…

Cracking sounds echoed, and the red light curtain instantly broke with a large hole.

“Quick! Enter the formation!”

A giant bear, a hundred meters tall, suddenly appeared on the central city wall.

Cultivation fluctuations far exceeding a Martial Arts Grandmaster spread in all directions.

Liu Jiangyi guessed that this giant bear was probably the man with bear ears on his head who was at the City Lord’s mansion that day.

With his roar, the Beastmen on the city wall immediately rushed backward.

Liu Jiangyi looked back and saw a row of bright formation eyes appear behind them.

The Beastmen sat into the formation eyes, then began to pour Spiritual Qi into them.

In addition, there were several Beastmen queuing up next to each formation eye.

Om~

As the Beastmen reinforced it with their own Spiritual Qi, the blood-red light curtain instantly healed, forming a standoff with the blue giant sword.

“Heh heh, you think you can stop this Venerable One with just this?”
