1076: Go to Li Village

...

The meeting ended.

It ended in everyone's silence.

When the Marquis left, many people in the palace clenched their fists, unable to accept the outcome.

Raine, who had listened to the Marquis's words in silence the whole time, felt his heart tremble at this moment.

So many of his Renault Family relatives were still in Busen City!

According to the Marquis, were they just going to watch the Black World swallow up the Renault Family, which he had spent most of his life building?

“Raine, I plan to enter the Black World to rescue my Cannes Family members from Feikang City. What are your plans? Are you coming with me?” The Middle-aged man in golden armor strode up to Raine, speaking in a serious tone.

His words made Raine slightly moved.

“You two guys, who aren't even enough for me to beat with one hand combined, are thinking of rescuing people?” Suddenly, a rough voice appeared beside the two of them.

This made the two of them turn their heads to look.

They saw that the speaker was a red-haired White-Haired Old Man over two meters tall, wearing silver armor that looked as if it had been cast in one piece.

“City Lord.” Dean, wearing golden armor, bowed respectfully.

After the bow, Dean's expression was serious: “Since the Marquis Lord is unwilling to help rescue them, then my Family's citizens can only rely on me, and I cannot let them face the Darkness alone.”

“Even if there is danger, I must go and rescue them!”

“Hmph, it's not your turn to rescue people.” The red-haired silver-armored White-Haired Old Man snorted coldly: “Feikang City is my territory, leave the matter of rescuing people to me!”

“City Lord!” Dean's tone was startled.

Before he could say anything else, several more voices came from behind.

“Are there any people from Busen City willing to go with me to rescue them?” In a clear voice, the Busen City City Lord also spoke.

...

...

It wasn't long.

As the crowd in the palace dispersed, outside the Western Main City, a dozen or so powerful experts with profound auras gathered.

These people were all elite experts from Feikang City and Busen City.

And at the forefront of this group, the two City Lords, both titled Earls, looked solemnly at the dark and heavy World in front of them.

“Is this everyone?” The Busen City City Lord glanced back.

Although they had shouted loudly in the palace, ultimately only a dozen or so people followed, including those from Feikang City.

The City Lords of the other two Cities shrouded in Darkness had no intention of going to the Black World to rescue their citizens.

“Let's go!”

The two City Lords took a deep breath and shouted in a simple tone.

Perhaps they also understood that this journey forward would be absolutely fraught with danger.

But they still went forward without hesitation.

Because they were not only City Lords, but also the only hope for the two Cities trapped in the Darkness!

...

Busen City.

The City, with its population of two million, which should have been bustling at all times, had already fallen into silence tonight!

Originally.

After the Holy Light Array was activated to its maximum power, it could barely maintain the coverage of the entire City.

But as the power of Darkness intensified, the Holy Light Array was constantly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And while people were still estimating whether Busen City could last for ten or twenty days with the Holy Light Array shrinking at this speed, it... snowed from the sky!

The dead silent ice and snow, the moment it formed and fell into the City, was like puddles of sulfuric acid, and the entire Holy Light Array instantly fell into intense fluctuations!

And under the intense fluctuations, the Holy Light Array completely shattered with a final mournful mechanical sound!

Holy Light Department.

Those who had not sided with Su Liang, the faction that desperately maintained the Holy Light Array, at this moment, everyone's face was pale!

“Roar!”

“Woo wah~”

Outside the City.

Large numbers of Darkness monsters that had been waiting for a long time, amidst roars of excitement, directly rushed into Busen City!

The only thing worth being fortunate about is.

Busen City did not rely solely on the Holy Light Array to ensure the safety of the City's citizens.

After these Darkness monsters rushed into the City, within Busen City, powerful Magicians and Knights directly resisted the monsters outside!

The roaring sound of battle and slaughter directly kicked off the prelude!

Above the City.

Seeing this scene, the acting City Lord couldn't help but crush a brick wall with the hand gripping the city wall.

“Where is Lunen? Where is Lunen?” The acting City Lord's voice was not calm.

Lunen is one of the two current Elders of the Holy Light Department.

The other Elder completely supported that bastard Su Liang, while Lunen was the Elder who stuck to the original plan and maintained the Holy Light Array.

“City Lord, Lunen has fainted due to excessive consumption maintaining the Array Formation!” The quickly delivered news was undoubtedly bad news.

“Damn it!” Watching the endless stream of monsters pouring out from the Darkness, the acting City Lord quickly walked down the city wall: “Where is Su Liang? Where is he?!”

After their last meeting, the acting City Lord no longer wanted to interact with this person, but now, the only one he could place his hope on was him!

“City Lord, are you looking for me?” Su Liang's light and airy voice came out.

This also made the acting City Lord and many people around him notice the other party.

“Just now I sensed that the Array Formation was about to reach its limit, and I figured you would definitely need me then, so I came.” There was more self-satisfaction in Su Liang's voice.

The acting City Lord didn't care much about this; he just wanted to resolve the current crisis as quickly as possible: “Su Liang, we need that potion of yours, give it to me!”

“So, you agreed to the conditions?” Su Liang asked back, not in a hurry.

After these words came out, the Old Man's expression was complex: “If you take over Busen City, can you guarantee the safety of everyone and treat the citizens of Busen City kindly?”

“I won't agree to any additional demands from you. After I become City Lord, what I do and how I do it is my own business. If you agree, I can give you the enhancement potion.” Su Liang did not back down at all on this matter.

Because the enhancement potion in his hand gave him full confidence.

“You!” Hearing this, the Old Man's face showed anger.

“Ah!”

Behind, among the people fighting the Darkness monsters, there were already people who were injured and crying out in pain.

“City Lord, the Darkness monsters are getting more and more numerous!” On the city wall, a Knight who was fighting a Darkness beastman shouted urgently.

“The monsters in the Darkness are endless. You don't need to think that the monsters will disappear instantly. The highly probable outcome is that the monsters will destroy the City.” Su Liang's words were calm, but the meaning within them was exceptionally cold!

“Alright, I promise you!” The acting City Lord said hoarsely, while veins popped on his forehead.

“You agreed to let me be the City Lord?”

“No, I will help you eliminate the Renault Family. In that case, you can also produce the enhancement potion, right?” The White-Haired Old Man said in a muffled voice.

Hearing this, a trace of regret flashed in Su Liang's eyes, but he was not disappointed.

Eliminating the Renault Family was exactly one of the things he wanted to see!

Those bastards actually thought of killing him, so they should taste what it's like to be truly wiped out!

...

...

Half an hour later.

Busen City regained its quietness, and the frenzied monsters retreated and left.

Compared to before, Busen City was a bit more lively.

They saw that the Holy Light Array, which had originally shattered, was actually reactivated at this moment, and its light effect could easily be maintained at its previous level even under the suppression of the dark night's heavy snow!

Under the warm Holy Light's illumination, everyone in the entire City felt the huge stone pressing on their shoulders being lifted by an invisible force.

And at the Renault Family.

At this moment, blood flowed like a river!

“Why are they all collateral branches? And Old Men? I didn't see many main direct descendants. Did Raine take everyone away?” Su Liang arrived at the Renault Family, accompanied by several Holy Light Department Magicians behind him.

As far as the eye could see, there were only the corpses of slaves and collateral relatives.

Besides that, there were indeed a few people who were tied up and left on the ground to be dealt with as he pleased, which made him feel relieved.

“Heh, should your Renault Family admit now how short-sighted you were?” Su Liang came before the few people who were tied up and asked one of the Old Men with a smile.

This person was Raine's uncle, Si Xiu.

He was also the person second only to Raine in the Renault Family.

Facing Su Liang's smiling question, Si Xiu said nothing.

“Take him down. I want each of them to experience the pain I went through!”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone behind him immediately took action.

Standing where he was, Su Liang looked inside the Renault Family and couldn't help but shake his head: “Still, some people escaped. Let them die in the Darkness then.”

...

On the other side.

Outside Busen City.

Some young descendants of the Renault Family were looking at the Darkness in front of them, their faces filled with vigilance and worry.

They were the only remaining members of the Renault Family who had been notified in advance by the City Lord's Mansion and then arranged by their Family elders to escape.

Now, they could no longer stay in the City, but outside the City, the eerie Darkness as far as the eye could see made them have no direction or hope at all!

“Where do we go next?” someone in the crowd asked.

These words carried a lot of emptiness.

No one in the crowd answered.

In everyone's opinion, no matter where they went, as long as they stepped into the depths of the Darkness, it would be suicide!

“Go to Li Village.” Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Everyone looked.

The one who spoke was Wyatt.
