"Friend, where did you come from?"
Seeing Du Feng enter the defensive perimeter of the city wall, the guard commander personally came over to talk to him.
"I came from East Immortal City. The Ximen clan's goods should arrive in a few days."
Du Feng did not reveal his identity and just casually mentioned the Ximen clan's goods. Because the Apocalypse Cannon was originally sold to Demon Rejecting City, and the city lord and guard commander were the recipients, this batch of goods was used to save lives.
"So it's an old friend, please come in."
Hearing this, the guard commander hurriedly invited Du Feng to take a seat in the city lord's mansion. At this moment, apart from the city lord, everyone else was defending against the demon beasts on the city walls and watchtowers. Inviting Du Feng to the city lord's mansion could be said to be a very high treatment.
"No rush, I'll kill for a while first."
Saying this, Du Feng used a spell to wash off the dirty blood on his body. Then, he used another spell to dry his clothes. He looked down and raised the Dragon Riding Sword.
Fire Dragon Soul Attack!
With a wave of his arms, the Dragon Riding Sword quickly descended. Then, a huge red dragon roared and drilled out. This fire attribute sword art's grade was not high, but with Du Feng's current Cultivation, it was still very powerful.
The moment this fire dragon left the sword tip, it grew bigger and bigger, from the thickness of a bucket to the thickness of a water jar, and from the thickness of a water jar to the thickness of a house. By the time it fell from the sky, it had already turned into a fire dragon that was hundreds of meters long.
The fire dragon opened its mouth and swallowed all the demon beasts in its path. Although this was not a real dragon, its killing power was not weak at all. Just that big mouth alone was enough to bite countless demon beasts to death. The flames on its body burned the surroundings. The scorching heat burned all the demon beasts in the surroundings to death.
Du Feng's attack was much more powerful than the spells of the clan leaders, making them feel somewhat ashamed. They thought to themselves, 'What is this person doing? Is there a need to be so desperate? It's not like you're a resident of Demon Rejecting City, why do you have to be so desperate?'
"Zla Zla Zla …"
Just as they thought of this, they saw that Du Feng's body was surrounded by purple electric arcs. The guards closest to him dodged, afraid of being hurt by the electric arcs.
Thunder Dragon Soul attack!
Following Du Feng's roar, lightning elemental energy gathered within his body like a torrent. Following which, all the lightning elemental energy flowed towards the Riding Dragon Sword in his hand. The Riding Dragon Sword was filled to the brim with elemental lightning energy, causing sparks to continuously appear on its surface. With a furious roar, a bright purple lightning dragon rolled out.
Just the sparks from its body were enough to blacken the bluestone bricks on the city wall. One could well imagine how powerful this lightning dragon was.
"Friend, do you want to consider joining our Zhao Clan? In this Demon Repelling City, our Zhao Family is the most powerful. "
"Friend, do you want to join our Wan Clan? Our Wan Clan is the richest."
When the various clan heads saw Du Feng's ferocity, they all wanted to rope him in. However, Du Feng didn't have the time to deal with them. While there were still many low-level demonic beasts around, he wanted to make the most of them and earn more karmic power. Karmic power wasn't effective at all.
To achieve a certain level of effect, it was best to save a city's citizens or kill millions of demonic beasts. Although Du Feng had killed quite a number of demonic beasts, he was still far from his goal.
Before the fire dragon could completely disappear, the thunder dragon roared out again. Wherever it passed, lightning flashed and thunder roared. Demonic beasts that didn't come into contact with it died without a doubt. Even the demonic beasts in the vicinity couldn't escape. Sparks flew everywhere, killing quite a number of demonic beasts.
Uh … seeing that Du Feng wasn't paying any attention to them, the various clan heads snorted disapprovingly.
"See? He's here to help. You people better hurry up and prepare the money. "
The guard leader was right. This time, in order to protect Demon Repelling City from being destroyed, they had spent a lot of money to buy a batch of Apocalyptic Cannons. And the money needed to buy this batch of Apocalyptic Cannons required the various clans to pool together. It was impossible for the City Lord Manor to fork out the money alone, and they couldn't let the poor commoners either. They could only let the various clans fork out some money.
"Sure, the one thing our Wan Clan lacks the least is money, hahaha."
The head of the Wan Clan had a fat head and big ears. At first glance, he didn't look like someone who could fight. Although his Cultivation wasn't low, his combat ability was lacking. Most likely, most of his cultivation had been boosted by medicine. Now that he could spend money for one day, of course he was happy.
"My Zhao Clan doesn't lack money. Can we have a few less people?"
The Zhao Clan Head expressed that he was willing to fork out more money, but he wouldn't let his descendants take the risk.
This time, everyone had to contribute to the Demon Repelling City's crisis. Especially the various large clans, who usually occupied so many good resources, of course they had to contribute more. Hence, the City Governor's Mansion had set a rule for them. Each family had to send an elder at the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, 10 martial artists at the sixth stage of the Golden Celestial, and 20 martial artists at the first stage to the fifth stage of the Golden Celestial.
These warriors had to be direct relatives of their clans. Spending money to hire bodyguards didn't count.
It was easy to die fighting with demon beasts, and the clan heads of the various large clans didn't want their descendants to take the risk. Now that they heard that they could donate more money to settle the matter, they all expressed that their clans didn't lack money.
"Don't speak too early. You can decide after you see the amount."
When the guard leader announced the amount of donations, everyone was dumbfounded. That was because the price was truly too expensive. It was so expensive that it was frightening.
Any clan that didn't send a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven to help would have to pay a fine of 10 million Immortal Stones. Ten direct relatives of Golden Celestial of the Sixth Stage and above would be fined a million Immortal Stones for each missing one. Direct relatives of Golden Celestial of the First Stage to Fifth Stage would be fined 500,000 Immortal Stones for each missing one.
The Immortal Stones here were all Stage Two Celestial Stones. If the people from each clan were converted into money, it would be 10 million plus 10 million plus 10 million. There were a total of 31 places, which was worth a total of 30 million Stage Two Celestial Stones.
If any clan didn't send a single person, they would have to pay a fine of 30 million, which would be used for the defense of the Demon Repellent City.
"Are you kidding me? This is too expensive."
"Yeah, the City Lord Manor is too greedy."
"Defending against foreign enemies is the business of the City Lord Manor and the City Defense Department. What right do you have to take our money?"
Previously, the clan heads of the various large clans were quite easy to talk to because they didn't want to offend the City Lord Manor. But after seeing the list of fees, they couldn't help but throw a tantrum. They felt like they had been scammed.
"The City Lord said that it's fine if you don't want to pay or send people. After the battle is over, get out of the Demon Repellent City, and all your property will be confiscated."
