What Yun Lintian worried about was Linlin's identity. He did not know whether they could detect her Divine Beast bloodline.
Yang Chen noticed Yun Lintian's worry. He asked. "What's wrong, Brother Yun?"
"Is a companion beast allow to enter?" Yun Lintian asked.
Yang Chen glanced at Linlin and nodded his head. "There's no problem. As long as the companion beast doesn't have Abyssal Poison within its body."
Yun Lintian said nothing further and pondered how to hide Linlin's bloodline.
The line gradually moved toward the city.. Ten minutes later, a white colossus wall appeared in everyone's line of sight, causing a huge commotion among the crowd. Yun Lintian looked over and was a bit shocked upon seeing it.
The smooth and clean white wall was shining with a white glow, looking ethereal and sacred. Yun Lintian didn't know the material, but he could feel it was at least a divine rank. The wall stood approximately thirty meters, which was the tallest city wall Yun Lintian had ever seen so far, and it expanded several kilometers. It was unbelievable to think this was an artifact.
On the wall, Yun Lintian spotted several figures clad in white armor, scanning the crowd. In the next moment, Yun Lintian perceived a powerful Spiritual Sense swept past him. Without a doubt, the owner's strength couldn't be lower than the Monarch Profound Realm.
What the heck? A monarch acting as a guard? Yun Lintian thought. Such a lofty figure yet became a city guard, he couldn't imagine the overall strength of the divine city. Wouldn't it be full of monarchs?
It took another hour before Yun Lintian's group arrived at a gigantic city gate. The long line was divided into eight rows — two rows for a carriage check and six for a people check. Yun Lintian observed the whole process and discovered a companion beast had to drop its blood on an evaluation stone as well.
Buzz—
Suddenly, when a blue robbed man dropped his blood on the evaluation stone, a black light immediately burst out, and several guards nearby instantly took a shot at the blue robbed man.
Boom!
The blue-robed man realized he was seen through. He hurriedly released a powerful black aura to defend himself and successfully blocked the guards' strikes before trying to escape.
"Abyssal Energy." Yun Lintian said in a low voice as he instantly recognized the black aura. From the man's aura, his strength was at least the middle-level of the Saint Profound Realm. Such a powerful individual was still detected by the evaluation stone. Yun Lintian was certain Linlin's identity would be exposed too. Hence, he had to prepare a trick.
"Hmph!" As the blue robbed man fled away from the city gate, a cold snort suddenly pierced through everyone's eardrums, accompanied by a sharp white light shot down from the sky.
The blue robbed man let out an angry roar, and his body abruptly expanded, transforming into a huge black two horns lion with a snake tail and wings.
When the white profound light was about to reach the black lion, it stomped one foot on the ground, and a dense black shield appeared before it. The shield was thick enough to resist the white light and even reflected it toward the crowd.
"Shit!" Yun Lintian cursed as he saw the profound light shot toward the innocent crowd. Without hesitation, the White Dragon spear appeared in his hand, and Yun Lintian quickly threw it at the white light with all his might.
A fiery red flame ignited on the White Dragon spear, immediately turned into a fire dragon shape, and went straight at the incoming white light.
BOOM!
The fire dragon collided with the white light, but it could not completely block it. The white light's impact was spread in a wide range, instantly turning several people among the crowd into pieces with no resistance. Blood and fleshes scattered everywhere, transforming the previous peaceful surroundings into bloody hell.
Yun Lintian stood from the ground and hurriedly looking for Yun Qianxue, Linlin, and Yun Lingwei. After he saw they were safe and sound, he heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at countless unfortunate people.
The scene in front of Yun Lintian was akin to hell on earth. Wailing and screaming could be heard everywhere. Some were losing their limbs, and some didn't even have a single trace left behind.
Seeing this, an unforgotten memory flashed across Yun Lintian's mind. His hands involuntarily clenched into fists, causing blood to drip down from the gaps between his fingers. His eyes turned cold, brimming with murderous intent, as he looked at a white figure currently fighting the black lion.
"Are you okay?" Yun Qianxue grabbed Yun Lintian's shoulders and checked on his body. Her current appearance was a bit tattered as bloodstains were all over the place on her white snow robe.
Yun Lintian came back to his sense by Yun Qianxue's call. He took a deep breath and said. "I'm fine. You should take care of your wounds first."
Yun Qianxue was relieved and took a healing pill. Meanwhile, Linlin, Yun Lingwei, and Yang Chen came back to Yun Lintian's side.
"This bastard!" Yang Chen was angry to the point his whole body trembled uncontrollably. He didn't expect this city guard would be this irresponsible.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The black lion continued to fight with the white figure with its life on the line. After several moves, the black lion was entirely suppressed by the white figure and was finally lost its life under an overwhelming attack from the latter.
"Heh, you lowly beast dare to come here." The white figure kicked the black lion's corpse a few times before turning around, preparing to leave as though the life and death of the surrounding people didn't matter to him.
"Are you going to leave after all of this?" Yun Lintian's voice rang out from the city gate's direction, causing the white figure to stop his movement.
"Lintian…" Yun Qianxue was taken aback by Yun Lintian's sudden move and wanted to stop him.
"Trust me." Yun Lintian said softly and patted Yun Qianxue's hand.
Seeing he wasn't impulsive, Yun Qianxue didn't say anything further and let her hand go. However, the worry within her eyes was evident.
Yun Lintian slowly walked toward the White Dragon spear that was pierced on the ground several meters away. Every step he took seemed to carry boundless rage.
