The person who spoke was a blue-haired old man who was walking out of the command center.
"Elder Weng, he's my friend."
Nie Junxue's expression froze when she saw this person.
This person was a Supreme Profundity Realm later stage immortal cultivator from the City Lord Office. He came from another major force in Yu State, the Falling Evolution Sect. This sect was extremely powerful in Yu State, and its heritage was not inferior to that of the Goddess Cult. Together with the Goddess Cult, it was one of the two major sects in Yu State.
"Miss Jun Xue, the command center of the city lord's mansion is the most secretive place in the entire White Mang City. According to the rules, even if he is your friend, he cannot easily enter."
Elder Weng frowned and scanned Mo Wen from head to toe. He didn't know why, but he felt that this young man looked familiar, as though he had seen him somewhere before. However, he couldn't figure out where.
"This friend of mine is also a member of the Huatian Palace Senate. Could it be that Elder Weng suspects that there's something wrong with him?" Nie Junxue asked plainly.
"Since he is a friend of the Huatian Palace, there is no need to suspect him. It is just against the rules."
Elder Weng stood in front of the two of them, clearly not prepared to let Mo Wen enter the central area of the City Lord's Manor.
In fact, the command center had already made all the necessary arrangements for the city's defense. Even if someone managed to sneak in, they wouldn't be able to obtain any valuable information, so there was no need to be so serious.
Moreover, Mo Wen was Nie Junxue's friend. Under normal circumstances, they would more or less give him some face.
Mo Wen looked at Elder Weng with interest. It was obvious that this elder was not on good terms with Nie Junxue. Rather than saying that he was making things difficult for Mo Wen, it would be more accurate to say that he was making things difficult for Nie Junxue.
As expected, Nie Junxue's pretty face immediately turned cold. She looked at Elder Weng with a sharp gaze.
"Elder Weng, I think I'm the commander-in-chief of White Nightmare City."
She received orders from the Huatian Palace and represented the Huatian Palace. Hence, although her cultivation was not the strongest in White Mang City, her status was the highest. She was the commander-in-chief of White Mang City.
When Elder Weng saw that Nie Junxue was only a cultivator at the Supreme Profundity Middle-stage, he had never been convinced that she was the commander-in-chief.
"Hehe, interesting. Little doll, are you called Mo Wen?"
Suddenly, an eerie voice rang out. The voice was exceptionally cold, as if someone was blowing a ghostly wind into one's ear.
A ghostly figure shrouded in a black robe slowly walked out. The person was hidden under the robe, and his appearance and figure were completely concealed. He walked silently, like a wandering ghost.
Nie Junxue frowned again when she saw the black-robed man. There were two people in White Mang City who gave her the most headaches. One was Elder Weng, and the other was this black-robed man. He was Old Demon Qu Shang from Hades Mountain.
"Mo Wen!"
Upon hearing this, Elder Weng's eyes narrowed, and he immediately looked at Mo Wen.
At this moment, he finally remembered why he felt this youth was familiar. It was because he had seen his portrait before. Mo Wen was quite famous in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. Many sects in the Immortal Realm wanted him dead.
"Mo Wen, is the Sacred Fire Sword in your hands?"
Old Demon Qu Shang floated over eerily. Under the huge hat, a pair of dark green eyes emitted a cold light.
Elder Weng narrowed his eyes. Old Demon Qu Shang had asked the same question he wanted to ask.
The Sacred Fire Sword was a sacred treasure. If he could obtain it, his strength would definitely increase greatly. Moreover, the Sacred Fire Sword contained the treasure of an old monster in the Divine Illusionary Realm. The value of that treasure was most likely above that of the Sacred Fire Sword.
"So what if it's in my hands?"
Mo Wen smiled. There were many people who coveted his treasures. Twenty years ago, he had left the Peng Lai Immortal Realm because too many people coveted his treasures. He had hidden in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, not daring to come out.
After a few decades, there would probably be many people who coveted the Sacred Fire Sword.
"Young man, there's an old saying that goes, 'An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth.' Keeping the Sacred Fire Sword is a source of trouble. Why don't you give it to me? Not only can I guarantee your safety, but I can also give you a lot of benefits."
Old Demon Qu Shang's dark green eyes were fixed on Mo Wen, as if he wanted to see through him.
"Old Demon Qu Shang, aren't you not giving me face by speaking to my friend like this? Don't forget that the threat of the evil clan is still here. If we fight now, no one will be able to answer to us, "Nie Junxue said coldly.
Old Demon Qu Shang had appeared in White Mang City with the purpose of resisting the invasion of the evil clan.
The evil clan was the common enemy of all human immortal cultivators and all immortal cultivators in the various realms.
Usually, the Huatian Palace was always in a state of conflict with the Hades Mountain, Demon Soil, Demonic Sky, and other factions. Once they encountered each other, it would be a fight to the death.
However, when the evil clan appeared, they would immediately be on the same side. That was because the evil clan was their common enemy, the common enemy of the entire universe.
"Of course I know the rules. Why would I need a little girl like you to remind me?"
Old Demon Qu Shang snorted coldly. As the Devil of the Hades Mountain, it was impossible for him to have any respect for Nie Junxue, the commander-in-chief of the Huatian Palace. If not for the orders from above, how could this little girl be the commander-in-chief?
His gaze slowly turned to Mo Wen, and he said coldly, "Young man, there are many people in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm who have designs on you. You have to be careful in the future. Hehe … "
Old Demon Qu Shang let out a sinister laugh. His figure twisted, and the next moment, he disappeared from his original spot.
After Elder Weng found out Mo Wen's identity, he did not say anything else. He looked at Mo Wen intently, then turned and left.
Compared to making things difficult for Nie Junxue, he was clearly more interested in Mo Wen.
However, now was not the time.
"A bunch of reckless fools."
Nie Junxue laughed coldly. Those who coveted Mo Wen's treasures would not have a good ending. She was rather clear about Mo Wen's abilities. More than ten years ago, he could already compete with immortal cultivators with great attainment of the Supreme Profundity Realm. More than ten years later, he would most likely be much stronger than he was back then.
Nie Junxue was the person in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm who knew Mo Wen's abilities best. Back then in Moyang City, he had defeated an old monster in the Divine Illusionary Realm with his own abilities. In the entire Peng Lai Immortal Realm, there were most likely only a handful of people who had such abilities.
"Junxue, I discovered many cultivators from the outer domain in Yu State. They … are actually mixed with the evil clan." “
Mo Wen frowned. This question had been on his mind for a long time.
The western world of the outer domain did not belong to the same system as the eastern world. Overall, the western world could not compare to the eastern world, but they could not be underestimated either.
If the western world cultivators were mixed with the evil clan, it would be very troublesome.
"Those people have already surrendered to the evil clan."
Nie Junxue's expression was solemn. This time, the evil clan's invasion of the Peng Lai Immortal Realm had a lot to do with some factions in the western world. In fact, the evil clan could even enter the Peng Lai Immortal Realm by using the western world's passageway.
"Have all the western world cultivators surrendered to the evil clan?" Mo Wen drew in a cold breath.
"Not all of them, just some. I don't know much. It seems that ten years ago, the western world fell into chaos. The Gods Alliance and the Demon Gods Alliance, which were originally at odds with each other, united for the first time. This is because a huge new faction has appeared in the western world. That faction is the Skull Society that was formed by the evil clan. "
"The Skull Society had just been established, and many western factions surrendered to it. There were even supreme existences from the Gods Alliance and the Demon Gods Alliance among them."
"In other words, right now, there are two major systems in the western world. One is the two major alliances, and the other is the Skull Society?" Mo Wen asked.
"That's right. Behind the Skull Society is the evil clan. They are rather powerful. After a period of conflict, the Skull Society has already gained the upper hand."
Nie Junxue sighed. It was precisely because the Skull Society ruled over half of the western world that they had the energy to deal with the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. Furthermore, according to what she knew, the upper world was in the same situation. The various realms had already begun to descend into chaos.
In the next few days, White Mang City was peaceful. However, there were more and more cultivators fleeing to White Mang City. From the information they sent back, it was certain that the number of evil races in Chong Ming Manor was increasing. Because of this, the number of sects and cities that were being destroyed was also increasing.
Everyone could feel that a storm was brewing, and the wind and rain were swaying.
On the fifth day, a group of evil clan suddenly attacked White Mang City. This was the first battle between White Mang City and the evil clan.
The evil clan had only sent out a small group of people. Their cultivation levels were not high, and they seemed to have come to investigate White Mang City.
For ten consecutive days, small groups of evil clan members came to harass White Mang City every day. However, the scale of their attacks was not very large, and they were easily suppressed.
On the eleventh day, the evil clan seemed to have figured out White Mang City's strength. A sharp horn sounded in the wastelands. A black line appeared on the plains in the distance. The black line continued to approach, rolling over.
Immortal cultivators with high cultivation levels scanned the area with their divine consciousness and knew that it was not a black line. Instead, it was an army. Tens of thousands of densely packed silhouettes were pushing their way.
Dong dong!
The alarm on the city walls rang nine times in a row. This was the highest level of warning. On the surface, the evil clan had launched an all-out attack. The cultivation levels of the people in the city had been raised to the highest level.
Silhouettes of immortal cultivators flew out of the city. They were in formation, and they were well-trained. Their bodies emanated a powerful murderous and sharp aura.
White Mang City's offensive and defensive stratagems were all activated as well. A large number of stratagems intersected with each other. Colorful lights flashed continuously in the sky. There were a total of two hundred and sixty stratagems that enveloped White Mang City. They combined defense, attack, confusion, and traps into one. If the evil clan wanted to attack the city, they would first have to face these stratagems.
The immortal cultivators who had escaped to White Mang City over the past few days had all formed armies. Right now, there were more than a million immortal cultivators in the city. The size of the battle array was rather rare.
Mo Wen sat cross-legged in a secret chamber in the City Lord's Manor. He was originally cultivating when he suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes emitted a golden light as he looked outside the city. Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something.
Suddenly, he seemed to have noticed something, and he smiled with interest. In the next moment, his figure disappeared from the secret chamber.
