Chu Tian, seething with rage, was followed by countless guards.
He ran from the west of the city to the center.
Upon seeing the towering inner city walls, three characters were written at the gate.
But he didn't recognize them. Guessing, he surmised this must be the City Lord's mansion.
He had just seen a sinister old man enter there.
Carrying the aura of a priest, with four Reincarnation Realm martial artists following behind him.
He must be an extraordinary figure.
However, he hadn't seen this person on the western city wall tower.
He had seen the four Reincarnation Realm martial artists behind him.
They were said to be the four commanders of the Four Directions City Guard.
He caused a commotion all the way, with the pursuing guards shouting endlessly behind him.
"Stop..."
"Don't run..."
"Intercept him..."
The guards at the City Lord's mansion gate had already noticed all of this.
They just didn't expect this guy to head straight for the City Lord's mansion.
As they were lining up to intercept, Chu Tian leaped up, soaring tens of meters.
Towards the main gate of the City Lord's mansion, he delivered a flying kick!
Boom...
An explosion!
The gate of the City Lord's mansion, made of some unknown material, did not shatter.
The entire door panel flew directly inside.
"Wei Du... Old Yang... Come out for me!"
Chu Tian flew in.
With a loud shout.
...
With a loud noise and a shout, Wei Du had just brought the iced grape juice mixed with wine to his lips.
His hand trembled, splashing a lot onto his clothes.
"Heh heh..." Old Yang chuckled.
"I knew this would happen!
You promised to back him up, but you ran back for drinks.
No wonder this kid is so angry!
Once he gets that wild streak, not even nine mammoths can stop him."
Old Yang clinked glasses with Old Li, the fire priest, and took a sip of wine with a smile.
Wei Du, the City Lord, felt embarrassed by Old Yang's words.
He hadn't expected Chu Tian to return so quickly. He had indeed promised to back him up.
But he ended up backing him up at the wine table.
Actually, it wasn't entirely his fault. Firstly, he met Yang Kai, whom he hadn't seen in over a decade.
Although their ages were very different.
In fact, Yang Kai's age was similar to his second son's.
However, on this Xuan Tian Star, on the Sea of Death.
Everything depended on one's own strength.
Even if you were a small child, if you possessed immense strength.
Others would kneel and call you an ancestor.
Or address you as Venerable.
And Old Yang, on the path of martial arts in this Sea of Death, was already at the pinnacle of the pyramid. Da Feng Novel Network.
Another factor was the eight-character prophecy.
It proved that the person he was waiting for had arrived...
Chu Tian was that destined person.
The item guarded by generations could also be handed over to him.
Even... he wouldn't have to be the City Lord anymore.
He could live a carefree life like a recluse.
More importantly, the revenge for his wife and son's murder...
He could personally avenge it!
"Ding ding... You go down and take a look!"
"Alright!"
Ding ding replied and turned to go downstairs.
Boom...
Bang...
Thump...
Dong...
Suddenly, four loud noises came from downstairs, and the entire high platform palace trembled.
"What happened?"
Old Yang, Wei Du, Old Li, and Old Qin all stood up.
And walked towards the edge of the high platform.
Buzz...
Abruptly, two immense soul fluctuations came from beneath their feet!
"It's Gou De'er..."
This soul fluctuation, they were too familiar with it.
It was precisely that old fellow Gou De'er's.
And the other one, whose was it?
Although much weaker than Gou De'er's.
Its solidity was much greater than the former.
And it exuded a kind of inexplicable majesty.
"It's Chu Tian..."
Before everyone reached the edge of the high platform, Old Yang spoke.
He was very familiar with Chu Tian's soul fluctuation.
"Impossible..."
Old Li and Old Qin said simultaneously.
"Is this kid named Chu Tian going against heaven?" Old Li asked Yang Kai.
"Soul Priest... Star Priest... Battle Body Attachment Technique..."
Old Qin, with a meaningful expression, quickened his pace towards the edge of the high platform.
Wei Du showed no significant emotional fluctuation.
However, he thought to himself: If you knew that the Heavenly Fire Star descended that day and shattered the barrier of the Sea of Death, what would your expressions be!
This... Chu Tian... the chosen one...
Indeed, he could not be judged by ordinary standards.
...
Chu Tian entered the City Lord's mansion.
The gate he kicked open flew towards the five people in front of him without deviation.
Those five people, he recognized them as the ones who had entered before.
It was Old Priest Gou and the commanders of the Four Directions City Guard.
He, accompanied by four people, had come aggressively to confront Wei Du.
His so-called nephew, but actually his biological son, Gou Bi, had been killed.
Upon learning that the Central City Guards had brought back the body.
And the commander of the Central City Guards was Wei Jin.
Wei Jin had also had many conflicts with Gou Bi.
He had reason to believe that Wei Jin was responsible for Gou Bi's death.
Thus, he came to cause trouble.
As for why he was so bold as to come looking for the City Lord.
That had to be traced back to twenty-seven years ago.
Around that time, Wei Du's wife was killed, and his eldest and second sons met with misfortune simultaneously.
Disheartened, he stopped managing city affairs.
Gou De'er and another vice-city lord, Lu Yongge, who was flattering him on the city wall but was rebuffed by Chu Tian.
These two jointly managed all affairs of Myriad Beast City.
After more than twenty years of operation, Lu Yongge's power had been almost completely carved up by him.
Only the title of vice-city lord remained.
Even... many of the former City Lord Wei Du's confidants had defected to Gou De'er's side.
Therefore, although he was nominally a vice-city lord.
In reality, he controlled all matters within Myriad Beast City.
With the Myriad Beast Seal in his possession, he could legitimately remove the prefix "vice."
He expected that with the power firmly in his hands, if Wei Du wasn't foolish, he wouldn't dare to do anything to him.
If he were to move against him, the various affairs of Myriad Beast City and the hidden pawns would erupt simultaneously.
Myriad Beast City, if not destroyed... would descend into chaos.
It might even offend the other three main cities.
Without the water supply from Clear Water City, and the weapon supply from Forgotten City, Myriad Beast City would fall into dire straits.
Moreover, both he and Wei Du had studied under the previous City Lord.
He... Gou De'er had entered the sect earlier, and had expected the position of City Lord to be within his grasp.
However, he did not expect that the previous sect leader would take in a final disciple in his later years.
That was Wei Du, and in the end, the inheritance of the Myriad Beast Seal was also taken by Wei Du.
He, Gou De'er, had endured for so many years, managing Myriad Beast City with all his heart.
He had finally sidelined Wei Du. Today, the commanders of the Four Directions City Guard told him.
This old fellow was going to hand over the Myriad Beast Seal to some inexplicable brat.
The hatred for his son's murder and the夺印之恨 (hatred of seizing the seal) erupted in his heart in an instant.
However, as they arrived here aggressively.
Before they could take a few steps, the main gate of the City Lord's mansion was kicked flying and sent hurtling towards them.
It was aimed directly at Gou De'er.
The commanders of the Four Directions City Guard acted in unison, catching the gate.
"Old Priest, he's that kid!"
The commander of the Western City Guard pointed at Chu Tian and said to Gou De'er.
He... was the most aggrieved, as the entire Western City Guard and the city defense army had been wiped out.
Even... the engineering equipment and buildings on the city walls were all destroyed.
Now, he was left with nothing but his bare command.
"Brat, you have guts, daring to barge into the City Lord's mansion..."
Slap...
Chu Tian moved his body and slapped the commander of the Northern City Guard who had spoken, sending him flying.
Boom...
This guy, despite having the cultivation of the Reincarnation Realm, had no practical combat experience at all.
Moreover, it was Chu Tian's miraculous, divine "Slapping Technique."
Not the slightest killing intent was revealed. Relying on spiritual intuition, it was useless.
This fat fellow's corpulent body was sent flying directly by Chu Tian, sticking to the wall.
His excess fat became like a flattened persimmon cake, stuck there.
"You're asking for death..."
The remaining five were shocked. What kind of move was this?
They saw Chu Tian's body charging forward, but they didn't sense any killing intent.
Moreover, he was smiling. And it seemed he was here to cause trouble for the City Lord.
Didn't he hear him roaring Wei Du's name upon entering?
Therefore, including Gou De'er, no one reacted.
After all... the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
The commander of the Northern City Guard who had just roared at Chu Tian.
Gou De'er had intended to scold him, then win Chu Tian over to his side.
A slap and a sweet date were his usual tactics.
Who knew that before he could utter a word.
He encountered the unreasonable Chu Tian, who reached out and slapped his face.
The commander of the Northern City Guard standing beside him was thus sent flying.
The rest of them roared in unison.
And what greeted them was Chu Tian's counter-slap.
Slap...
Bang...
Dong...
Including the previous sound, Boom...
It was the four sounds that Old Yang and the others upstairs heard.
Each of them was either slapped against the wall or had their heads embedded in the ground.
One unfortunate fellow had his head smashed into a large water vat.
He was left there, propped up on his rear end.
One wondered if he would drown after a long time!
Just as Chu Tian was about to deliver his next slap towards Gou De'er.
A powerful soul force suddenly erupted from the old fellow's body.
Sending Chu Tian flying.
At the same time, a ram-like phantom, with two horns, charged towards Chu Tian.
"So powerful? Soul Manifestation?"
Chu Tian was surprised. Without thinking, his mind moved.
Azure soul power surged forth.
Roar...
Dragon roars echoed in everyone's ears.
