Late at night.
There were no stars in the night sky, and it was as dark as ink.
In the southern region of the 72 cities, there was a city called Lu He City.
The entire city was silent, deep in slumber under the curtain of night.
There were more than one million citizens in the city. Most of them were from the Human Tribe, and a small number of them were from the Demon Tribe.
However, the city was now under the control of the Heaven Punisher Tribe.
Not only was there a Martial God Realm captain in the City Governor's mansion, but there were also 18 warriors from the Heaven Punisher Tribe in the city.
Even though it was late at night, there were still more than ten patrols in the city.
The City Guards on the surrounding city walls were also on high alert as they rested their spears on their heads.
However, the defense was completely useless against a Martial God Realm expert.
In a secret room filled with Spiritual Qi and cultivation resources deep in the City Governor's mansion.
Two warriors from the Heaven Punisher Tribe in black armor were checking the mountain of resources and putting them into their Interspatial Rings.
These were the treasures and resources that they had obtained after taking over Lu He City.
Suddenly, a beam of icy blue light silently shone in the corner of the secret room.
Swoosh!
Two beams of bone-chilling Sword Radiance instantly pierced through the darkness and aimed at the chests of the two warriors in black armor.
The two of them were caught off guard and before they realized anything was wrong, the Sword Radiance pierced through the scales on their chests.
Bam! Bam!
With a muffled sound, the armor worn by the two men was pierced, and the scales on their chests were shattered.
Before the two of them could even scream, they fell to the ground and died.
Then, an icy blue figure walked out from the darkness in the corner of the secret room.
This slim and graceful figure was wearing an ice blue dress. Her face was beautiful, and her temperament was noble and cold.
She glanced at the corpses on the ground and threw out a ball of icy blue flame, burning the two corpses to ashes.
Without a doubt, she was Martial God Luoshui.
She had fought with the Heaven Punisher Tribe before and knew their weakness.
Thus, when she assassinated the Martial Sages in black armor, she killed them with one strike.
After taking care of the two corpses, she waved her sleeve and put the mountain of cultivation resources into her Interspatial Ring.
Although she was the ruler of the Holy Kingdom and was rich, she did not care about these resources.
However, she was unwilling to let those resources fall into the hands of the Heaven Punisher Race and strengthen them.
In just two breaths' time, she had emptied all the resources and treasures.
Her figure immediately became transparent and disappeared from the secret room.
Not long after, she appeared in another room a thousand feet away.
In this room, there was a black-armored guard who was cultivating.
Luo Shui hid in the dark, shooting out an icy-blue Sword Qi with a flick of his finger, instantly killing the black-armoured guard.
Next, she teleported to another room and assassinated two Black Armored Warriors without making a sound.
As time passed, she appeared and disappeared like a ghost in the City Lord's Manor, coming and going without a trace.
In the short span of an hour, she had consecutively killed twelve black-armored warriors.
With her Divine Consciousness, she discovered that there was only one Martial God Realm captain left in the City Lord's Mansion.
There were also six black-armored warriors scattered around the city walls.
Luo Shui decided to kill the captain first before dealing with the remaining black-armored warriors.
…
The study of the City Lord's Manor was brightly lit.
A middle-aged man who was as muscular as a rhinoceros and wore silver armor sat before a tall table, frowning as he pondered something.
He was the captain of the battleship Nebula, a Third Level Martial God Realm expert.
Ever since the Heaven Punisher Race had taken over the 72 cities, Nebula had been busy.
In order to completely control Lu He City and plunder as many resources and treasures as possible, he was worried sick.
Not long ago, he had received a message from An Yu.
It was said that a mysterious expert had infiltrated the 72 cities and was assassinating the captain and the Heaven Punisher warriors.
Up until now, more than 30 warriors had been killed, and Captain Qi Ling had also been assassinated.
An Yu reminded him to be more alert and to report immediately if there were any abnormal situations.
When Nebula heard the news, he was worried and was considering how to deal with it.
At this moment, an extremely cold and dangerous aura instantly appeared from the corner of the study.
Nebula, who was in deep thought, was startled awake when he sensed the cold aura.
He almost instinctively turned around and punched behind him.
At the same time, a dazzling icy light pierced his chest and was about to pierce his armor.
"Boom!"
In a deafening explosion, Nebula's fists hit the icy light.
A shockwave that could destroy heaven and earth instantly exploded in the study.
Boom!
Visible icy blue ripples swept through the entire City Lord's Manor and spread in all directions. It was about to affect half of Lu He City.
The City Lord's Manor was destroyed on the spot.
Palaces, houses, and courtyards were reduced to rubble by the shockwave.
Hundreds of people in the Manor were instantly killed and turned into dust. They were buried in the ruins.
Nebula was also sent flying by the shockwave. He rolled and smashed into the street ten miles away.
The straight and wide limestone street had long been twisted and broken.
After Nebula landed, he created a deep hole in the ground and dust flew up into the air.
He felt intense pain in his internal organs and blood kept flowing out of the corner of his mouth.
Intense shock filled his mind. He crawled out of the ruins with a horrified expression and flew into the night sky.
"Damn it! Who sneaked an attack on me? How could they be so powerful?
Could it be … the mysterious powerhouse that General An mentioned? "
Nebula did not hesitate to draw his bronze saber and put on a defensive posture. He looked around with a malicious gaze.
At this moment, the night sky above his head lit up again with an icy blue light.
Swoosh!
A giant icy blue sword that was thousands of feet long slashed down from the sky.
Before the sword light arrived, the bone-chilling cold had already locked onto Nebula's soul.
His body was cold and stiff, and he could not move an inch.
At the moment of life and death, he could only wave his saber and desperately slash out three blood-red saber lights to block the icy blue sword.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The blood-red saber lights collided with the icy blue sword, causing an earth-shattering explosion.
The icy blue sword shattered into millions of ice crystal fragments and scattered in the night sky.
The blood-red saber lights also collapsed. Nebula was once again sent flying and smashed into the ruins below.
Another huge hole was created in the ground and more than ten ravines split open.
The entire Lu He City shook violently as if a super earthquake had occurred.
The people in the city were awakened and ran away in panic, letting out cries of fear and despair.
The previously silent city suddenly became noisy and chaotic.
Nebula did not have time to care about the situation in the city. He cursed with a ferocious expression and turned to fly towards the north.
He didn't even get to see who his opponent was before he was severely injured.
He knew very well that if he continued to stay in Lu He City, he might lose his life.
In order to save his life, he was willing to give up Lu He City!
Swoosh!
Nebula, who was shocked and flustered, teleported 300 miles away and fled to the sky above the wasteland outside the city.
However, the other party seemed to have expected him to escape.
