C398 Besieging and Besieging the City of Ten Directions
"Oh? Why is he visiting the top four sects? "
"Don't you know about the enmity between the Liu Clan and Ten Directions City? Liu Qi wants to see the intentions of the four great sects and is preparing to make his move against Ten Directions City. "
"Really? This is great! "
There were six people sitting around a stone table. Looking at their dignified faces, it was likely that they had great backgrounds as well.
They were a small alliance among the eighteen cities. They were vexed over the strength of the Ten Directions City, but they didn't expect to hear about the Liu Clan.
"That's right, if the four great sects don't interfere, then it'll be easy for the Liu Clan to destroy the City of Ten Directions."
"If we can get rid of it, then we really have to thank the Liu Clan."
When they heard this news, they were extremely happy. Right now, the eighteen cities surrounding the Ten Directions City were like the imperial capital of a dynasty, possessing a powerful might.
"I think that the other cities are all worried about the strength of the City of Ten Directions, so I think that we can use this opportunity to unite everyone and take over the City of Ten Directions in one go."
"You can't!" A city lord quickly said, "The Liu family has a saint now. You should know the Liu family's methods. With them here, we definitely can't interfere. Otherwise, our city will be in danger."
When the others heard this, they frowned and said, "That's right, the Liu Clan's methods are vicious. They have plundered a lot of resources in the City of Ten Directions, we absolutely cannot join."
"However, we can lead our troops to besiege Ten Directions City and wait for the Liu Clan to take their revenge before heading to Ten Directions City!"
"Mm, that's a good idea. The Liu Clan already has Saints, so it's impossible for them to fight for another city. As for the eighteen cities of the Ten Directions City, it's not bad for us to fight for one."
The group of people then dispersed after discussing with each other.
Although they did not know if the top four sects could stand aside and watch, their alliance had already become an inevitable trend. Otherwise, there would be a day when they would be annexed by the Ten Directions City.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed. Liu Qi had made a trip to one of the top four sects, then immediately gathered his men after returning and headed straight for Ten Directions City.
Meanwhile, in Ten Directions City, they had already received the news that the Liu Clan would attack again.
"I really didn't expect that Liu Qi, a dignified Saint, would actually attack our Ten Directions City."
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Fan, Li Xun, and the others were all present. Even Xiao Tong and Qin Yuan had personally come. The atmosphere was very tense.
Ling Tianyu also furrowed his brows. If he was a Manifestation stage practitioner, he would not have the slightest worry. However, against a Saint, he had no chance of winning.
"Mayor, didn't these five great sects say that Saints are not allowed to interfere in the city?" Zhang Fan had an expression of indignation. This Liu Qi was too shameless.
"There's no other way. Liu Qi is here for revenge, and the current four sects only value their own interests. They don't care about this type of trivial matter."
"That's right, it's rumored that the Longsong Sect has remained neutral, the Sword Saint Palace has also remained silent, and the Alchemy Sect has added fuel to the fire, because they now know that the City Lord is in the middle of a rainy day. As for the Tian Dao Sect, they naturally wouldn't continue to develop according to this city."
In the main hall, everyone had their own opinions.
The Longsong Sect. They had killed Ling Tianyu because of Yun Lan. The Sword Saint Palace was probably because he did not agree to become their disciple. The Heavenly Dao Sect probably lacked many worshippers and resources. Furthermore, he was an uncontrollable power.
As for the Alchemy Sect, after knowing that they were in the middle of a rainy day, it was already a blessing they did not attack at once.
How could Ling Tianyu not know about this? Otherwise, why would he endure for so long not to look for Yun Lan at the Longsong Sect? If he went, it would definitely be a bad thing for him.
Tian Shu thought deeply for a moment, then said: "Everyone, don't worry. This time, we are in danger, nothing will happen."
"Oh?" Everyone turned to look at Tianshu, and even Ling Tianyu was taken aback.
Faced with the crowd's speechless anticipation, Tianshu could only mysteriously smile and say, "Heaven's will cannot be revealed."
This was an excuse, but everyone was still worried.
"City Lord, I have received news that this time, not only the Liu family, but other cities have joined hands and have already surrounded the city. As long as the formation is broken, the city will definitely be besieged."
"Sigh, looks like we're still progressing too quickly."
Li Xun had a worried expression on his face. Rumor had it that around the city, there were at least 10 million soldiers. This was a huge number.
"Everyone, you guys go back first. Let me think about this." Ling Tianyu rubbed his temples. It seemed that the ruling side was truly going to expend a great deal of effort.
Moreover, with his own family business, he was bound to do whatever he wanted. If it were just him alone, he would have already run away.
Otherwise, they could just hide inside the Heavenly Jade Pendant. Even if they were Void Transformation Stage martial artists, they could only stare at it helplessly.
Soon, silence returned to the hall, leaving Ling Tianyu by himself.
"Artifact spirit, we've really met with a problem this time. It was all because of you that made me the City Lord of Fang City. Now, however, I'm stuck in a dilemma." Ling Tianyu complained.
"Heh, I say you are the Human Emperor. You can't even manage a ten-sided city, so how are you going to control the human world in the future? How are you going to fulfill the heavens' destiny?!"
The Weapon Spirit seemed to be blowing its beard and glaring at him, fiercely berating him.
"Sigh, the main problem is that the opponent is too strong. Saint, even if I have the power of the jade pendant, I can't win against him. Moreover, I can't even lay down an 8-star formation. This time, I'm really at the end of my road."
Ling Tianyu sighed. He found himself in a difficult position.
"What are you worried about? Didn't Tianshu see through me? He already said that this time there was no danger, then everything will definitely be fine."
"…"
Hearing those words, Ling Tianyu could only remain silent. Even though he was talented and powerful, he was helpless when his opponents surpassed him.
Just as he was thinking about how to defeat the enemy, a voice sounded.
"Ling Tianyu, it has already been half a year and you still haven't brought me to find the ancient family. Tell me, are you lying to me?"
After which, a pink-robed lady appeared in the hall like a gust of wind. She stared coldly at Ling Tianyu, just a few steps away from drawing her sword.
"Yaoguang, didn't I already tell you that we can't search for the ancient families before they appear?" Ling Tianyu glanced at her and said.
For the past six months, she had been very careful in facing Yao Guang. After all, she was a supreme expert of the Supreme Heavenly Palace, and her strength was great, so she couldn't casually offend him.
Yao Guang was also quite sincere to Ling Tianyu; the two of them were just like friends.
During this time, Ling Tianyu asked her about the Supreme Heavenly Palace. As long as she knew, she would tell him everything.
However, she had been cultivating and was young, so she didn't know much about it.
Afterwards, Ling Tianyu had asked her about the God Mountain of Protection, but Yao Guang didn't know anything about it.
As for the rest of the people in the Central Region, they only knew that the God Mountain Protection once existed. As for where, no one knew.
"Hmph, you're lying to me. Anyway, I've been deceived many times. The men of your mortal world aren't good people!" Yao Guang's mouth curved up as the Divine Punisher Blade in his hand instantly turned golden.
"Eh, there's danger!" Yao Guang's complexion changed. His soul consciousness spread out in all directions.
He turned his head and said, "A Heaven Opening Realm martial artist? Ling Tianyu, are they here for you? "
