The main city of Yuzhou.
The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the clear sky. It was supposed to be a beautiful day.
However, a terrible piece of news had reached the ears of the Marquis of Yuzhou.
Many cities under the jurisdiction of the county had been razed to the ground. The unstoppable demon beast army was rushing towards the main city of Yuzhou like a tide.
In order to not cause panic among the citizens and cause riots, the Marquis of Yu State did not immediately publicize this news when he heard it. Instead, he first informed the city guards and patrolling guards of Yu State to begin deploying troops to prepare for a strategic deployment.
Lin Ying, who was completely unaware of this, was currently at the trade inspection station in the south of the city, excitedly waiting for the arrival of the foreign caravan.
The trade inspection station, as the name implied, was a station specially set up to check the safety of trade goods. Any goods transported from outside of Yuzhou into the city had to first pass through the trade inspection station.
In order to facilitate the inspection, the trade inspection station was usually set up near the city gates. The main city of Yuzhou had four city gates: east, west, south, and north. Similarly, there were also four trade inspection stations.
The trade inspection station at the south gate was specially used to check goods from foreign countries.
Because Lin Yun often fought without clothes covering his body, sometimes even when he was completely naked. Therefore, Lin Ying wanted to personally make a set of clothes for Lin Yun that wouldn't be damaged in battle.
However, to make such a set of clothes that wouldn't be damaged, he needed materials that were extremely durable. At present, the only material that met these conditions was the Wild Silk.
Wild Silk was an extremely precious material that had a sky-high price. In the Southern Summer King, it was difficult to buy even if one had the money.
In order to find Wild Silk, Lin Ying had exhausted all of his family's assets and endured countless hardships and tribulations. After overcoming countless difficulties and obstacles, he finally found it in a merchant group in a neighboring country.
It was also because the foreign caravan was about to deliver the Wild Silk to this trade inspection station that Lin Ying had excitedly waited here in advance.
After waiting for half an hour, the long-awaited Wild Silk finally arrived at the trade inspection station.
After paying the rest of the money, Lin Ying finally held the wild silk that he had been dreaming of. He had already begun to think about which style to make for Lin Yun.
Although Lin Ying had used up all the wealth left by Lin Yun for this little bit of natural silk, she felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
Because she could personally make an unbreakable set of clothes for Lin Yun, this was the greatest satisfaction for her.
When Lin Ying left the trade inspection station with the Wild Silk in his arms, a sudden loud noise broke the peace and tranquility.
Lin Ying's footsteps paused, and he instantly froze on the spot.
Zhang Wei, who was behind her, also hurriedly signaled for all the guards to stop.
All the guards stopped where they were. Without the sound of the guards' footsteps, the scene was so quiet that it was a little oppressive.
Following that, the sound that caused one's heart to palpitate was heard once again.
Dong dong dong …
The loud noise was getting closer and louder. It seemed that something huge was approaching the city from outside the city wall.
Everyone turned their heads in the direction of the sound and looked at the 15-meter-high city wall.
They saw a huge red head slowly appear at the top of the city wall. The appearance of this head was no different from that of a fox. It had pointed ears, and its mouth and face were equally pointed. The rows of sharp teeth in its mouth were as sharp as a knife.
Its whole eyeball was pitch-black, but its pupils were demonic yellow. Its eyes were extremely ferocious, full of creepy murderous intent, like a devil crawling out of hell!
"What … what … what is this?" A guard was so scared that he trembled all over. He couldn't even hold the weapon in his hand steadily and it fell to the ground.
Not to mention how powerful the Demon Qi of the monster in front of them was, its size alone was enough to scare people out of their wits.
"Miss, run!" Zhang Wei immediately stood in front of Lin Ying. He stared at the monster that appeared on the city wall and shouted to Lin Ying behind him.
Before Lin Ying could recover from the shock, the huge demon fox raised its sharp claws and fiercely slashed at the metal door of the city gate.
Bang –!
Accompanied by a deafening sound.
The metal door panel, which was half a foot thick, was smashed into pieces in an instant. Together with the door frame of the city gate, it was blown into the city.
The terrifying shockwave carried rolling heatwaves and swept towards the city like a tsunami. Everything in its path was blown away.
In just a moment, the rolling heat wave blew Lin Ying, Zhang Wei, and all the guards away.
Everyone flew more than ten meters away, then fell to the ground and continued to roll. After rolling for more than a dozen times, they stopped one after another.
When Lin Ying got up from the ground, she found that the natural silk was no longer in her hand. Her whole face became pale in an instant, as if she had lost her soul.
Lin Ying hurriedly looked around. Finally, not far in front, she found the natural silk that was left on the ground. She rushed over without thinking.
Lin Ying's mind was full of the natural silk at this time. She did not notice that the ferocious beasts were entering the city from outside the broken city gate.
Lin Ying rushed to the front of the natural silk in a blink of an eye. She hugged the natural silk in her arms as if she was not hugging the natural silk, but the Brother Yun that she yearned for day and night.
"Miss, danger!" Zhang Wei's shout suddenly sounded.
Only then did Lin Ying subconsciously turn her head to look, only to see a five-meter-tall long-armed giant ape standing in front of her, staring at her with murderous eyes.
The strong right arm of the giant ape was raised high and clenched into a giant fist the size of a water tank.
Lin Ying's eyes widened in horror, and her whole body was trembling. The intense fear paralyzed her whole body, and she was unable to escape on her own.
The giant long-armed ape was a second-tier advanced demonic beast. Its strength was comparable to a human eighth level martial artist. And its arm strength was even stronger than a martial master realm human.
If she was hit by this punch, the consequences would be unimaginable!
At the moment when the giant long-armed ape swung its fist, Zhang Wei rushed forward without any regard for his own safety and used both hands to push Lin Ying to the side.
Lin Ying was pushed out of the shadowy area and fell to the ground, rolling into a deep pit.
Zhang Wei, on the other hand, was hit in the lower half of his body by the giant fist. Both his legs were directly crushed into meat paste by the terrifying force.
When Lin Ying crawled out of the pit, she just happened to see Zhang Wei, whose lower body was pressed under the giant fist, bleeding from the corner of his mouth. He looked at her with a face full of fatigue: "Mi … Miss, quickly … quickly escape …"
After saying this, Zhang Wei slowly closed his eyes.
Looking at the unconscious Zhang Wei, Lin Ying's face instantly turned ashen. Her eyes were so lifeless that there was not a single ripple. Her whole body froze in place as if petrified.
All of this happened too abruptly, so much so that she was unable to react at all.
