Half a month ago.
Eastern region, Yan Jin Kingdom, royal palace.
The new King of Yan Jin, Yan Nanzheng, stood in the main hall with his hands behind his back, looking at the magnificent palace in disbelief.
A few months ago, he was still the Prime Minister of Yan Jin. But now, he had suddenly become the ruler of Yan Jin.
In order to rule Yan Jin, the Assassination Guild had completely wiped out all the members of the previous dynasty's royal family.
Now that the Assassination Guild had been destroyed, the ruling of Yan Jin had fallen into the hands of the former Prime Minister.
Everything that had happened in the past few months seemed to be paving the way for his ascension to the throne.
"Prime Minister, long time no see."
A strange voice suddenly rang out, causing the new King of Yan Jin to jump in fright. He hurriedly turned his head and saw a middle-aged man with dark green skin and short grey hair standing silently in front of him.
This middle-aged man wore a black robe and a pair of thick black gloves. He carried a square toolbox on his waist and held a transparent container filled with green liquid in his left hand.
"It's you? Why are you here? That's not right … when did you get behind me? " Yan Nanzheng looked at the middle-aged man in front of him in shock. He was very curious as to how he had snuck into the royal palace and arrived behind him without a sound.
"Does this surprise you? Don't worry, there's more that will surprise you. " After the middle-aged man finished speaking, a large amount of Yuan Qi exploded, causing the floor under his feet to crack inch by inch, turning into a large number of broken stones that shot out.
Yan Nanzheng, who was at the King Wu realm, was actually pushed back ten meters by this powerful aura. He looked at the middle-aged man in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief, "Martial … Martial Ancestor realm?! How … how is this possible! "
The middle-aged man said excitedly, "This is the power that God has given me! You foolish mortals! How can you understand the power of God! "
"God?" Yan Nanzheng looked at the middle-aged man blankly, completely unable to believe this was real.
The middle-aged man casually raised his hand and released a powerful aura, causing Yan Nanzheng to fly out and crash heavily into the stone pillars of the palace.
At this time, the imperial guards in the palace finally arrived at the scene.
"There's an assassin!"
"Protect the King!"
Hundreds of royal guards pulled out their swords and stood in front of Yan Nanzheng.
"Don't be nervous. I came back this time to give you a small gift. This is a new formula, and it's quite effective. "The middle-aged man raised a transparent container filled with green liquid and threw it at the densely packed royal guards.
The transparent container shattered as soon as it hit the ground. A large amount of green liquid was exposed to the air. In the blink of an eye, it evaporated into a green gas and spread out in all directions.
"It's poison, don't breathe!"
The guards subconsciously held their breaths and covered their mouths and noses with their hands. They quickly ran out of the green gas's range.
Even though they hadn't breathed in the green gas, their skin had turned dark green, and their eyes were bloodshot. Blue veins were bulging on their faces, making them look very frightening.
"Do you think that not breathing will work? What a foolish human! Hahahahaha! "The middle-aged man left behind a mocking laugh, then turned into a shadow and disappeared.
As for the poisoned guards, they had completely lost their minds. They pounced on their companions in a frenzy and mercilessly bit them.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?! "
"Crazy! Are you all crazy? "
"Damn it! Stop!"
"Don't bite me there … Ah!"
In the blink of an eye, a large number of guards had been bitten.
Those who were bitten quickly became the same as the poisoned guards. Their skin turned dark green, and their eyes turned bloodshot. Blue veins bulged on their faces, making them look very frightening.
"Oh no, this poison is contagious. Everyone, don't get bitten again!" Yan Nanzheng hurriedly reminded, but it was too late.
The guards who were bitten quickly lost their minds and pounced on the people beside them.
The situation had completely gone out of control. The royal guards all wrestled with each other, and it was a complete mess.
One after another, the guards were bitten, then they lost their minds and pounced on the other guards.
Just like that, one bit two, two bit four, four bit eight. In the end, the entire royal guards had lost their minds and were biting everywhere, like a bunch of walking corpses.
…
After Lin Yun and the others set off from the Southern Summer, they headed north at full speed.
According to Julia's description, Lin Yun's mother had gone to the top of the continent in search of the Dragon Clan.
The top of the continent was the region with the highest altitude among the eight regions of the Sky Martial Continent. Its average altitude was more than ten thousand meters above sea level, thus it was named the top of the continent.
The top of the continent was located at the extreme north of the Sky Martial Continent. There were three regions between it and the Thousand Kingdoms Territory.
If Lin Yun wanted to go to the top of the continent, he had to pass through these three regions, as well as the eastern and northeastern regions of the Thousand Kingdoms Territory.
Under the full speed of the Winged Dragon, Lin Yun and the others had passed through the entire Northern Yan Kingdom in half a day's time, and arrived at the border between the eastern and southeastern regions.
After passing through the long and narrow border, there was a clear change in the landscape, as though they had arrived at another world. This was obviously the eastern region.
The southernmost kingdom in the eastern region was called the Swallow Gold Kingdom. This was an intermediate kingdom. Its land area and military strength were similar to the previous Southern Summer.
The place that Lin Yun was currently passing through was obviously the Swallow Gold Kingdom.
After entering the territory of the Swallow Gold Kingdom, they could see a few villages situated in the middle of the mountains.
If one took a closer look, one would discover that there were many ant-like figures squeezing together in the villages. It was hard to tell what they were doing.
With just a glance, Lin Yun could tell that something was wrong with the situation. He immediately activated hyperfocus and looked down at the villages.
The scene in front of him was continuously magnified. That ant-like silhouette was gradually magnified to the point where it could be seen clearly. Even their every movement and every detail of their body was clearly displayed in Lin Yun's eyes.
He saw a group of humanoid monsters with veins all over their faces, bloodshot eyes, and dark green skin. They were crazily pouncing on the villagers, crazily tearing at their bodies. The scene was extremely bloody and violent.
Prince Namgong, Shangguan Xiayan, Hana Mio, and Yun Ruoxi also activated hyperfocus and looked down.
When they saw the bloody scene below, they were all shocked.
"What … what is going on?" Yun Ruoxi's face paled as she asked.
"Are these villagers crazy?" Hana Mio also asked curiously.
Lin Yun was still expressionless. "The situation is not simple. Let's go down and take a look first."
