A middle-aged man wearing a black robe with a velvet collar walked into the room.
He had bright cheeks and a slender figure, as if he was a frail scholar.
Yu Ren’er hurriedly hid the beast ring and sat down, “Father, what brings you here?”
Seeing her small movements, Yu Yuan shook his head helplessly.
Since she came back from the Linlang Empire, she seemed a bit uncomfortable, and he didn’t know what she was thinking about all day.
“I came to tell you, from now on don’t sneak out again, especially not to Huangyuan City.”
“I understand.”
Yu Ren’er replied in a breathless voice.
The last time she sneaked out, she was severely reprimanded by Yu Yuan after he found it.
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Yu Yuan sighed and said, “Recently, Huangyuan City has been attacked frequently by Spirit Beasts, and the Linlang Empire suspects that outsiders are responsible for this. Your status is special, and if you are discovered by humans, you may be in big trouble.”
Yu Ren’er frowned and said, “What exactly happened?”
Yu Yuan said in a deep voice, “It’s likely related to the Tiger Clan, but I’m not sure what they’re doing.”
The Barbarian Realm was vast, but they were not united.
Similar to the human kingdom, there were hundreds of other races and clans scattered throughout the Barbarian Realm.
Those with noble bloodlines and powerful clans were called “noble clans” and usually had many smaller clans that followed.
The Dangshan Tiger Clan and Qingqiu Fox Clan are both among the top noble clans.
However, the relationship between these two clans was very bad.
The tiger clan was originally very powerful, but since the death of its ancestor, it had fallen into decline and had been suppressed by the fox clan for many years.
“There are nearly 100 Golden Elixir Thunderbirds, if it is said that there is no one controlling them, I don’t believe it at all.”
Yu Yuan’s eyes flickered.
What exactly is the tiger clan thinking?
Yu Ren’er staggered, “So many! In that case, Huangyuan City should have suffered many deaths and injuries, right?”
Although she didn’t have a good impression about the human race …… of course, except for brother Su Shi.
But most of them are innocent people.
Yu Yuan shook his head: “Not a single person died.”
“Reinforcements from the Linlang Empire have already arrived, came some sect disciples, the strength is not bad, especially Su Shi, with his sword he slashed dozens of Thunderbirds~”
“As expected of someone with Holy-grade perfect talent, his strength can’t be compared to someone in the same realm.”
The Linlang Empire had a super genius, and this had spread to the Barbarian Realm.
But Yu Yuan did not expect the young man to be so powerful.
“Su Shi?”
Yu Ren’er froze for a moment and said in disbelief, “Brother Su Shi is also here?”
“Brother…. Su Shi?”
Yu Yuan looked at her with a suspicious face, “You two know each other?”
Yu Ren’er blushed and stammered, “We just had the chance to meet last time I went to Linlang Empire.”
“Is that so?”
Yu Yuan cupped his chin, always feeling that something was wrong with his daughter.
Yu Ren’er lowered her head, and there seemed to be starlight in her eyes.
Brother Su Shi is in Huangyuan City!
Then, won’t I be able to meet him again?
I am very happy!
####
Huangyuan City, the Great House of the City Lord.
In the council hall, representatives from various sects sat.
Their faces were full of smiles and they spoke eloquently.
“I told you, with Shengzi Su here, what kind of beast can be a match?”
“That’s right, that sword is truly amazing, it’s like cutting through heaven and earth!”
“Dozens of Golden Elixir Spirit Beasts were instantly killed, what kind of concept is this!?”
“And Chief Zhan and Imperial Censor Chen, ckck, worthy of top heavenly prides!”
“To be honest, my legs were a little weak just now.”
Wang Mao also had a smile on his face.
The Spirit Beasts that attacked this time were extremely powerful.
Originally, the officers and soldiers already had a death wish, but in the end, there were no casualties at all, and the main credit for this goes to Su Shi!
Wang Mao said: “Su Shengzi, why don’t you say a few words?”
The atmosphere was instantly quiet.
Everyone looked at the man sitting in the first place.
Su Shi, who had been silent, raised his head and said indifferently: “If you want to hear my opinion, all of you should go back, no need to risk your lives.”
People’s expressions froze.
They didn’t expect Su Shi to say such things.
Zhan Qingchen and the others also froze.
Wang Mao frowned, “Shengzi Su, what do you mean?”
“Exactly what I said literally.”
Su Shi raised his palm and threw two corpses.
Looking at the human-faced and beast-eared corpses on the ground, Wang Mao’s pupils shrank, “Outsider?”
Su Shi said: “The Spirit Beasts that attacked Huangyuan City, the outsiders are behind it. The Thunderbird flock is not the end, on the contrary, the real danger has just begun.”
Wang Mao frowned: “Then what was the purpose of their attack on Huangyuan City?”
“To set up a formation.”
Su Shi said bluntly, “The outsiders want to set up a Blood Slaughter Formation in Huangyuan City, using the city as a furnace, using blood qi as the formation guide to refine all living things in the city into blood essence.”
His voice was not loud.
But in the ears of the people, it was like a boom of thunder!
“What?!”
“Refining the entire city into a formation?”
“That… that’s too horrible!”
The people’s scalps tingled and cold air rose up their hairs.
Wang Mao rose to his feet, “Shengzi Su, are you sure?”
Su Shi sighed and said, “I wasn’t so sure at first, but now …….”
The first time he got off the flying boat today, he saw the black air condensing over the city, the color of blood rushing into the sky.
This is the harbinger of a great evil!
Plus that flock of thunderbirds and those two outsiders… this was exactly like in the book!
The formation of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands of Blood Slaughter!
Wang Mao helplessly sat back in his chair.
Su Shi wouldn’t joke about such things, this crisis in Huangyuan City is far beyond everyone’s imagination!
The other party actually wanted to slaughter hundreds of thousands of humans!
“The Thunderbird flock has been defeated, the other party will probably start early to avoid exposing their plans, so ……”
Su Shi’s gaze swept through the people, “You guys can still run now.”
This group of people were just cultivators in the Golden Elixir Realm, even if they stayed, they couldn’t do anything.
It was better to make it clear.
Those people’s faces turned pale and their heads lowered.
The atmosphere became extremely silent and oppressive.
Wang Mao was silent for a long time and said in a loud voice: ”What about the people in the city?”
Su Shi said: ‘‘Try to evacuate them.”
Wang Mao laughed bitterly, ‘‘There are more than 200,000 people, how can we evacuate them?”
Huangyuan City was located on the border, remote, and the nearest city was thousands of miles away, and they only had a few hundred men in total ……
Even if he sent a letter to Weiyang Capital now, it would take at least two days to get there.
By the time reinforcements arrived, it might already be too late.
Wang Mao let out a strangled breath, his expression becoming stern, “I will never abandon the people! Whether you go or stay, go ahead, I will bring the officers and soldiers to fight to the last moment!”
Despite his courage, it didn’t help.
“I’m sorry, General Wang.”
“This is no longer a problem we can solve.”
“I will return to the sect and bring help.”
The cultivators got up and left the table.
No one was willing to die in vain, whether they were from the Righteous path or the Demonic path.
Before long, there were only a few people left in the crowded council room.
Wang Mao’s face turned white as he looked at Su Shi, “Shengzi Su, you…”
At this moment, this demon star became the only thing he could rely on.
Su Shi got up and stretched his back.
“Now, there should be enough room for tonight, right?”
