"I knew all along that those people were no good."
Beside him, Luo Xue clenched her fists and frowned, "If not for the Fire Qilin Cub, they would already be cold corpses by now, yet they didn’t even offer a single word of thanks—a bunch of heartless bastards."
Xiang Tian shrugged indifferently, clearly having seen through it all earlier.
anwhile, Wang Zhan glanced at the two before saying, "Alright, stop with the nonsense."
"And, adjust your attitude. Even if you’re displeased with the people in North City, keep it to yourself for now, since we still need to stay here for a while."
Hearing these words, Luo Xue was stunned, and then curiously asked, "The issues in Captive Dragon Abyss have been resolved, why do we need to stay here any longer?"
Xiang Tian also nodded in agreent.
Just thinking about those people’s faces made his expression involuntarily sour.
Wang Zhan frowned and said, "The reason we ca to Captive Dragon Abyss was to obtain the crystal core of the True Dragon War Venerable, but now, not only have we ended up with a load of trouble, the crystal core that was almost within reach suddenly disappeared. We can’t leave just like this."
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue exchanged glances and looked at Wang Zhan in confusion.
"Brother Wang, what do you plan to do?"
Wang Zhan squinted his eyes and then smiled, "Naturally, we need to recoup and then find a way back into Captive Dragon Abyss. If we can defeat the True Dragon War Venerable, that’s best. If we still fail, then we’ll leave North Netherworld Domain."
Only then did the two nod in agreent, following behind Wang Zhan.
Ti ticked by.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan and his group had returned to North City.
However, upon entering North City, they noticed people around them gesturing and murmuring to each other.
"Could it be that Ling Fei Yun and his group haven’t returned?"
Luo Xue said curiously, "But that doesn’t make sense either. Their pace is quite good, and they were heading toward North City before us. Could it be... they ran into trouble again halfway?"
Xiang Tian frowned and said, "Who knows?"
"Alright."
Wang Zhan waved his hand, pointed to a hotel not far away, and said, "Let’s find a place to rest first, the matters in North City have nothing to do with us."
Within a few steps, they reached the hotel entrance.
However, before entering, they heard a loud shout behind them, "I can’t believe you dare to co back?"
Following the sound, Wang Zhan and his group noticed Ling Fei Yun standing aside, their faces turned grim, "What do you an?"
Xiang Tian walked quickly up to Ling Fei Yun, saying sarcastically, "We haven’t even questioned you yet, and you have the nerve to talk to us first?"
"In Captive Dragon Abyss, if Brother Wang hadn’t intervened, could you have returned to North City safely?"
Ling Fei Yun waved dismissively and retorted coldly, "I don’t have ti to talk about this now, but you must explain one thing clearly, otherwise, none of you should think about leaving North City!"
Hearing this, Xiang Tian laughed while clutching his stomach, his gaze icy as he looked at Ling Fei Yun, "Who do you think you are? We go where we please, are you going to block our way?"
Having seen each other’s skills in Captive Dragon Abyss, Ling Fei Yun knew they were formidable, yet his manner remained defiant. He coldly said, "What, don’t you know that the Fire Qilin is the enemy of the Four Cities?"
"But I never expected the Fire Qilin to appear among you?"
"Surely when you entered the Endless Abyss of Fire, you encountered so fortune?"
Upon hearing Ling Fei Yun’s words, the surrounding people’s expressions changed, and imdiately began discussing among themselves.
"They actually brought the Fire Qilin?"
"What a joke! Do they want the entire city to die with them?"
"Damn! Get rid of them!"
"..."
Suddenly, two figures approached the crowd.
Ghost Slasher and Si Ming walked shoulder to shoulder to the forefront, Ghost Slasher sneering coldly, "The Fire Qilin and we are arch-enemies. Back when it suddenly attacked the city, it caused many to lose their hos and families. Now that we’ve discovered these people harbor the Fire Qilin, how could we let them leave easily?"
"Today, we must not only slay the Fire Qilin but also eliminate these people!"
The crowd behind shouted in agreent.
Their stance remarkably unified.
"You shaless creature!"
Beside him, Xiang Tian glared, taking steps toward Ghost Slasher, then spoke coldly, "Others in the city have deep hatred for the Fire Qilin and want to kill it, I can understand."
"But what right do you have to say this?"
"If it weren’t for the Fire Qilin aiding you, do you think you could have left Captive Dragon Abyss safely?"
"You ungrateful scum!"
Ghost Slasher’s face changed, "You..."
Xiang Tian was instantly furious, he lifted his fist directly and slamd it fiercely towards Ghost Slasher’s chest.
Suddenly, a light screen appeared directly in front of Ghost Slasher, coming into contact with Xiang Tian’s fist!
With a loud bang, Xiang Tian retreated two steps at once, only feeling his entire arm going numb.
Luo Xue hurriedly walked to his side, promptly asking with concern, "How are you?"
Xiang Tian shook his head, cautiously watching Ghost Slasher in front of him.
Previously, they had already crossed swords in the Captive Dragon Abyss, yet even with Ghost Slasher teaming up with Si Ming, they were not Xiang Tian’s match. But now, how could...
In an instant, Xiang Tian’s expression turned much more grim.
The next mont, Ling Fei Yun and others were seen respectfully kneeling on the ground, at the sa ti looking towards the direction behind them.
Behind the crowd, a figure slowly walked out, it was...
Suddenly, exclamations were endless.
"Didn’t expect the city lord to actually exit seclusion?!"
"That’s great!"
"With the city lord overseeing, these people absolutely have no chance of surviving!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Tian instinctively looked towards Wang Zhan behind him, "Brother Wang, it should be Chu Beigu arriving."
"What do we do? Do we fight or leave?"
Before Wang Zhan could speak, he saw Sword Spirit slowly walking out from the Great Void Divine Sword, arriving at Wang Zhan’s back within a few steps, then spoke: "Chu Beigu’s strength is unfathomable, he may have already broken through to the Stellar-level, I think you might not be his match, better not oppose him lightly..."
"This strong?"
Wang Zhan’s face showed solemnity, if the opponent was reasonable, it would be fine, but if he was aggressive, even if Wang Zhan wanted to turn hostility into friendship, the opponent would probably not give him a chance, then a battle would still be unavoidable.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Beigu already walked to the front of Wang Zhan and his group, but he did not pay attention to Xiang Tian and others, and only after his gaze landed on Wang Zhan did he speak indifferently, "Not bad."
"Didn’t expect you, at such a young age, to have such deep cultivation, however, a re Planet level expert is still not capable of fighting ."
Wang Zhan slightly squinted his eyes, although countless ripples already surged in his heart, he still pretended to be calm and said, "Do your intentions an you’re prepared to make a move against ?"
"No."
Chu Beigu glanced back at Ling Fei Yun and others, then said, "I’ve already understood what happened in the Captive Dragon Abyss. Without your help, Ling Fei Yun and others probably wouldn’t have been able to leave safely."
"I’m soone who repays good with good and avenges wrongs with wrongs."
"Since you saved their lives, I naturally also need to let you have a way out, but..."
Chu Beigu deliberately elongated his tone, glancing at Wang Zhan’s chest before squinting his eyes, then pointed at Wang Zhan and said, "But you must hand him over."
"Many people in North City have suffered due to the Fire Qilin, so the Fire Qilin is the public enemy of everyone here, you can leave, but the Fire Qilin cannot."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan and others’ expressions instantly changed.
Isn’t this still forcing them?
After all, Wang Zhan had promised the Fire Qilin that no matter what, he would protect its cub, in the face of a great enemy, how could he easily abandon the Fire Qilin Cub?
"What do you say?"
Chu Beigu said calmly, "Don’t know if you’ve thought it over?"
"Naturally thought it over."
Wang Zhan stood with his hands behind his back, then said calmly, "No matter what, I won’t easily abandon the Fire Qilin cub, if you want to make a move against us, then co."
"I know very clearly I’m not your opponent, but don’t forget, more people in North City are also not my opponents, before you can strike down, I am absolutely confident that I can slaughter everyone in North City, do you believe?"
Chu Beigu squeezed his fist, sensing Wang Zhan’s trickiness, and fell into hesitation for a mont.
anwhile, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue had already prepared their fighting stances.
Evidently, as soon as Wang Zhan gave the command, they would strike without hesitation.
"City lord, why be threatened by this kid?"
Ling Fei Yun nearby squeezed his fist and walked to Chu Beigu’s side, frowning as he said, "He’s just bluffing, we have so many experts in the city, as long as you can hold off Wang Zhan, we can take care of the other two."
Ghost Slasher and Si Ming also nodded heavily.
Just as Chu Beigu was hesitating, Wang Zhan suddenly took out a black bead from his bosom and quickly threw it to the side!
A loud bang instantly sounded in everyone’s ears.
"This is..."
"What the hell is this?"
