Capítulo 1404: Chapter 1395: Old City Lord
Canglong City appeared extrely bustling and majestic.
Especially at night, with long streets on both sides adorned with red lanterns. From a high vantage point, it looked like a giant dragon coiled within the city.
In the Void Realm, the ancient city is at its most bustling during the nightti.
This is because everyone chooses to enter the city as night falls, staying overnight to avoid the widespread monster beasts outside the city.
Therefore, at night, the cities in the Void Realm beco extraordinarily lively.
As a first-class city in the southern Sword Land, Canglong City is even more so.
“Do you really not intend to let go?”
On a wide street, Mo Wangchen walked slowly ahead with Lingyu, whose Divine Sea was sealed.
Throughout this journey, Mo Wangchen spoke very little, hardly uttering a few words, while Lingyu felt increasingly anxious inside.
The distance between Yan City and Canglong City was too great. Even if experts from the Divine Clan descended on Sword Land to rescue her, it was unlikely they would have expected her to be here now.
“I’m not holding you, if you want to leave, just go ahead,” Mo Wangchen said with a light chuckle, without turning his head.
“Then release the seal in my Divine Sea first,” Lingyu said sowhat speechlessly.
She could clearly feel the seal in her Divine Sea constantly threatening her life. She had no doubt that with a re thought, Mo Wangchen could silently erase her existence.
It was as if soone had placed a bomb inside her body, and a push of a button would activate it.
And that button was now in Mo Wangchen’s hands.
Thus, as long as the seal in the Divine Sea wasn’t lifted, Lingyu dared not leave easily.
Moreover, she did not believe that Mo Wangchen was truly kind-hearted enough to release her.
“I heard there’s a cross-domain array in Canglong City that allows travel between the eight regions of the world, but it’s not sothing anyone can use casually. Do you know of a way to let use it?”
Walking all the way, Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but ask.
“Array?”
Hearing his words, Lingyu was slightly stunned, then frowned involuntarily, “You plan to leave Sword Land?”
This wasn’t good news for her. If they left Sword Land, the difficulty for the Divine Clan to find her would increase imnsely.
The vastness of the world across the eight regions was unimaginable. Trying to find soone in a single region, even using the power of a Divine Clan, would require a lot of effort.
“Rest assured, I an you no harm, just don’t do anything foolish. After my affairs are settled, I’ll lift the seal in your Divine Sea and let you go,” Mo Wangchen said.
Until now, Lingyu had no idea of his true identity, and until the Fire God Clan was destroyed, Mo Wangchen obviously didn’t want to expose himself. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust his disciple, but he didn’t trust Lingyu.
After all, until now, she had not awakened her past life’s identity.
“Will you really let go?”
Lingyu was sowhat incredulous, but apart from choosing to believe and comply, she had no other choices. “The array in this city should be managed by the City Lord Mansion and has always been maintained by them, allowing the array to remain operational.”
“If you want to use it, you’ll need to find soone from the City Lord Mansion.”
“City Lord Mansion, huh…”
Hearing this, Mo Wangchen nodded, then stopped in his tracks and lifted his gaze forward.
Before them, there was a vast plaza with many people gathered there.
At the center of the crowd stood a high platform, flanked by two enormous stone pillars.
This was a teleportation array platform, clearly the cross-domain array in Canglong City!
“What’s going on?”
Seeing the scene before him, Mo Wangchen frowned.
The array platform now was dim, with the stone pillars flanking it losing their luster, indicating a problem with the array, rendering it temporarily unusable.
“Since the old City Lord’s injuries relapsed, the array platform has been unattended for a long ti and was shut down seven days ago. No one knows when it’ll be restored.”
“In Sword Land, apart from the Divine City, only Canglong City still has a cross-domain array. With the two cities so far apart, even a Divine Realm Great Power flying through the sky would take half a month to reach Sword God City from here, not to ntion ordinary cultivators like us, who would take even longer.”
“If the array platform remains unusable after seven days, I won’t wait around and might as well head to Sword God City. The sect has many matters waiting for my return,” an elder from another sect said.
“The array platform can’t be used?”
Walking along, hearing the discussions from the gathered crowd, Mo Wangchen frowned.
This was not good news for him.
His ti in the Void Realm was limited, and he needed to reach the Fire Land as quickly as possible.
If the array platform in Canglong City was unusable, wouldn’t he have to go to Sword God City to use their array?
He had Lin’s True Technique, but the distance to Sword God City was daunting. Even at Mo Wangchen’s speed, it would take several days to reach there.
If so, his prolonged absence from the Real World would surely arouse suspicion in the Fire God Emperor.
“Do you know that this array platform might never be restored? I heard so news recently; the old City Lord’s condition has worsened and is critically ill, and it won’t be long before…”
Hearing these words, many couldn’t help but feel a jolt inside. Was the old City Lord going to fall?
Over the years, Canglong City could withstand the beast tide’s assaults, largely due to the old City Lord’s contributions.
He was a master at the pinnacle of the second stage of the Ancient God Realm, renowned throughout the southern region.
“The old City Lord’s injuries ca suddenly without any premonition, and he suddenly collapsed. The entire Fang Family was plunged into anxiety, anticipating hard tis. Originally, the old City Lord planned to pass on the knowledge to activate the stone dragons at the city gate and maintain the array platform to the next City Lord before retiring, but unexpectedly…”
“Now, the old City Lord is bedridden and critically ill, likely never to wake again. Among the Fang Family’s descendants, even the eldest son, Fang Yitian, doesn’t know how to activate the stone dragons or maintain the array platform.”
“The Fang Family is the backbone of Canglong City. If the old City Lord falls, the next monster beast attack might be unresistable…”
People sighed, expressing their sorrow with each comnt.
The Lingyu standing behind Mo Wangchen also frowned upon hearing these words. She had t the old City Lord once as a child and knew of his lifelong contributions to Canglong City.
She hadn’t expected him to suddenly collapse, leaving a sense of regret.
“Three days ago, the Fang Family released news seeking all Holy Doctors and Pill Sect from around the world to diagnose the old Family Head. Whoever could revive him, allowing the old City Lord to pass on the knowledge of maintaining the array platform and activating the stone dragons to the Fang Family’s descendants, would receive generous rewards,” soone said.
