"What a pity for such an old hero..."
Hearing the discussions around him, Ling Yu, who had arrived with Mo Wangchen, couldn’t help but sigh.
"Do you know this old city lord?" Mo Wangchen asked curiously, turning his eyes to look.
Ling Yu nodded, "When I was young, I visited Canglong City once with my father and saw the old city lord. Throughout his life, he has given too much for Canglong City. Were it not for the old city lord, this city might have long since been overrun by monster beasts."
In the southern region of Sword Land, there is a vast wilderness, making it the area where monster beasts appear most frequently among the eight regions of the world.
At night, monster beasts appear everywhere, and it is said that so have survived for countless millennia, lurking in this southern wilderness of Sword Land.
As a result, the ancient cities of the southern region are the most frequently attacked by monster beasts.
Over the years, countless ancient cities have been breached by monster beasts here, resulting in innurable casualties among cultivators. So ancient great families have even vanished overnight, with many family mbers displaced and fleeing far away, leaving the ancient cities in ruins.
But the only exception is Canglong City, which has stood unyielding over the years, thanks to the protection of the two giant dragons on the city gate and the generational guardianship of the Fang Family at the City Lord Mansion.
"I heard from my father long ago that Canglong City suffered a great calamity, with two waves of beast tides attacking the city in succession. The first wave was deterred by the Stone Dragon, but a more formidable wave ca afterward. The Stone Dragon at the gate needs a period of interval to be activated again after one activation, but the beast tide’s attack was urgent. In a desperate situation, the old city lord walked out of the City Protection Array alone, entering the beast tide by himself, slaying more than half of tens of thousands of the beast tide, and later battled the Beast King..."
"His old injuries must have been sustained during that ti."
Hearing Ling Yu’s words, Mo Wangchen fell silent. Entering tens of thousands of the beast tide alone was not sothing doable by a non-human courage.
This old city lord indeed deserves the world’s admiration. Had it not been for him, Canglong City might have faced an end then, with corpses piled high.
For a mont, Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but recall so past events, like a beast tide attacking a city, which he had personally encountered once.
Back when he was on Heavenly Gang Land, he was heading to the Heavenly God Institute, passing through Black Evil City. That night, a large-scale beast tide attack shook the entire Heavenly Gang.
If Mo Wangchen hadn’t ultimately constructed the Array True Technique, performing a large-scale transfer of cultivators within Black Evil City, that night might have seen at least a million people perish within the city.
It was because of that event that Mo Pavilion was established, claid to have an audience of millions, even showing signs of becoming the strongest force in Heavenly Gang.
During the transfer of the Mo and Lin families, Mo Wangchen hesitated whether to transfer Mo Pavilion as well.
But later, he abandoned this plan, for Mo Pavilion had beco deeply rooted in Heavenly Gang Land, turning into one of the two major forces alongside the Heavenly God Institute.
Despite being the Pavilion Master, Mo Wangchen understood that he hadn’t done much to help with Mo Pavilion’s astonishing developnt.
Everything was the result of Elder Xiao and others, who painstakingly built it up.
If Mo Pavilion were transferred to Daluo Heaven Realm, it would an they would drop from the position of Heavenly Gang Dominator to beco ’rabble’ in Daluo Heaven Realm.
Daluo Heaven Realm is a place forested with true strong ones, where the strong are revered, and strength reigns supre. Mo Pavilion, despite claiming millions of followers, would be ineffective in number compared to absolute strength.
Given this, why should Mo Wangchen let Mo Pavilion transfer?
Moreover, Heavenly Gang was a place where he once grew, his initial rise in this life.
Leaving Mo Pavilion there is akin to leaving a hope, and in the future, Mo Wangchen would not forget to return and visit that old ho.
"Let’s go."
When Mo Wangchen snapped out of his deep thoughts and reminiscence, he glanced at the dim array platform among the crowd ahead, then spoke to Ling Yu.
"Where to? Are you planning to leave the city and head to Sword God City at this ti?"
Ling Yu frowned, noting that the southern region is swarming with monster beasts everywhere, especially at night, posing unforeseeable dangers. Leaving the city at this ti was clearly unwise.
"Who said I wanted to leave the city?" Mo Wangchen shook his head.
Ling Yu beca more curious, "Then where are we going?"
"To the Fang Family."
"The Fang Family?" Ling Yu was stunned, wanting to ask more, but Mo Wangchen had already walked a distance away, clearly not wanting to say more. Unable, she had no choice but to follow.
"What are you going to the Fang Family for? The old city lord’s old injuries have flared up, and he’s bedridden. The Fang Family doesn’t have the ti to entertain us."
On the way to the Fang Family, Ling Yu asked curiously, while she started to calculate in her mind.
No matter what, she had once visited the Fang Family with her father. Although there was no acquaintance, if soone from the Fang Family could help secretly send ssages to the Divine Clan, she might have a great chance of being rescued.
She obviously didn’t expect soone from the Fang Family to save her from Mo Wangchen’s grasp.
After all, Mo Wangchen’s terrifying strength was unimaginable, having slain three Divine Envoys from the Heavenly God Clan. Unless the old city lord intervened, there would still be so hope.
But clearly, the old city lord, whose old injuries have relapsed, is now comatose and unable to act.
What’s more, her Divine Sea was sealed by Mo Wangchen using special ans. As long as this sealing wasn’t lifted, even if she was freed, her life would still remain under Mo Wangchen’s control.
Unless experts from the Divine Clan ca to swiftly suppress Mo Wangchen, only by capturing him would there be a chance to force him to lift the seal on her Divine Sea.
Thinking like this in her heart, Ling Yu couldn’t help but beco eager to head to the Fang Family.
But little did she know, the situation in Spiritual God City was not as she imagined, ready to pounce.
Upon deducing Mo Wangchen’s true identity, the Spiritual God Emperor confird that he posed no threat to his daughter, and simply closed his eyes to ditate in the palace, his soul wandering the night sky.
If Ling Yu were to know that her father took no action upon hearing she was captured, she would likely cough up three liters of blood in rage.
"I don’t have much ti. I must use the array in this city to teleport out. Going to the Fang Family, of course, is to see if I can wake the old city lord to let him temporarily repair the teleportation array for to use once."
Faced with Ling Yu’s confusion, Mo Wangchen replied like this.
