Medeline was badly injured. However, under the control of the Book of Naru, she had to follow Ma Wen's order and open the portal.
Ma Wen gasped. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
He had only been away for a short while. How could such a drastic change happen to the territory?
Even Madeline was seriously injured to this extent?
The Southern Wizard Alliance was indeed a puppet under the Demonic Phoenix's control.
He had overlooked this fact. After all, the White River Valley was still the territory of the alliance.
The alliance had given Ma Wen the power, and he had never made a mistake.
However, everything was different this time because of the Demonic Phoenix's secret manipulation.
Most legendary wizards had no idea what was going to happen.
Only a small number of them knew the inside story. Most of the legendary wizards in the Southern Wizard Alliance had been blinded by the Demonic Phoenix.
This time, there were actually two legendary Magi exerting pressure on the White River Valley, one from the east and one from the west. There seemed to be a hint of military suppression.
Ma Wen didn't expect this, and neither did the others.
The entire Gem Bay was in a state of panic. There were rumors going around that Viscount Ma Wen must have offended some big shots in the alliance. Otherwise, things would not have turned out this way.
There was also a rumor that Viscount Ma Wen had died a long time ago. Some people said that he had been punished by the alliance because he had betrayed the alliance.
The rumor must have been spread by the Demonic Phoenix.
In the Book of Naru, Ma Wen told the Demonic Phoenix that he had been killed by the fake Hathaway.
However, he didn't expect that the Demonic Phoenix was still not satisfied after killing him. The Demonic Phoenix had set its eyes on the White River Valley.
They had asked Ma Wen to return the Southernmost. However, Ma Wen knew that if he returned the Southernmost to them, it would prove that he had attacked his own people in the alliance.
By then, a fight would be inevitable.
…
Ma Wen was not in a hurry. He said goodbye to Ibu and returned to River Beach City with Madeline.
At this time, River Beach City was also desolate, as if a storm was brewing.
Many nobles had left River Beach City under the call of the Alliance.
An army formed by the nobles of Gem Bay had arrived at Riverbeach City.
They asked Madeline to open the road. Their target was the White River Valley, not River Beach City.
On this point, Ma Wen believed it to be true.
No matter how much the alliance was controlled by the Demonic Phoenix, they wouldn't attack a legendary sorcerer for no reason.
However, Madeline's attitude was extremely unyielding, not allowing anyone to pass through this official path.
Because of the Screaming Mountains as a barrier, if the Alliance's army wanted to enter the White River Valley, they had to go through River Beach City.
Vaguely, River Beach City had become a barrier in the White River Valley against the forces of the North.
But this barrier was not strong.
The one leading the army was the disciple of the Demonic Phoenix, the legendary sorcerer Monica.
She had received many pointers from the Demonic Phoenix and was considered one of the most senior figures in the Southern Sorcerer Alliance.
Madeline was a newly promoted legendary sorcerer. She had been stripped of her evil side by Ma Wen, so her strength had been greatly reduced.
The two sides had fought once outside River Beach City. Madeline had fought back the army at the cost of her serious injuries.
But she couldn't hold on for long.
First, she had been wounded. Second, her arcane barrier could only last for three days at most.
By the time she sensed Marvin's call, two days had already passed.
In another day, Monica's army would arrive at the city.
River Beach City was in a precarious situation.
Many people had already fled.
Those who stayed were either poor people who couldn't afford to leave and could only resign themselves to fate. The rest were Madeline's most loyal subordinates.
But this was not the worst news.
The alliance was attacking the White River Valley from two sides at the same time.
On the sea, under the leadership of the White Elephant Chamber of Commerce, some armed slave-trading ships were transformed into warships. There were even shadows of the Black Sail Pirates among them.
The Pirate Lord had shown himself.
When the news came from Gem Bay, both the White River Valley and River Beach City were in an uproar.
Obviously, they were going to land at Sword Port and attack the White River Valley from both sides.
This move had completely alarmed the entire South.
Everyone was watching.
What was the Southern Sorcerer Alliance doing?
Ma Wen was one of the nobles who had been in the limelight recently. He was acquainted with many legendary warriors and had even destroyed an Evil Spirit World!
Such a person was worthy of being called a hero. Why was the alliance attacking his territory?
This was something that people couldn't figure out.
But there were many things that had no answer.
The only thing they knew was that this time, the White River Valley was really in danger.
And at this critical moment, a secret message came from the White River Valley: Viscount Ma Wen was indeed not in his territory.
They had no idea where he had gone.
…
In the tower, Medeline managed to regain her composure. She told Ma Wen the gist of what had happened.
Ma Wen's face darkened after he heard the news.
The Demonic Phoenix must have her reasons for doing this.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have burst out in anger after enduring for almost a thousand years.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Mystic Phoenix was targeting and suppressing Ma Wen from the actions of the alliance.
The news that Hathaway was sealed in ice on the Black Coral Island had also been discovered by some people.
The people could only sigh at the bad luck of Ma Wen and the White River Valley.
If Hathaway was here, it wouldn't be easy for the Demonic Phoenix to make a move on the White River Valley.
At least three legendary wizards in the alliance were on Ma Wen's side.
Hathaway from the Tower of Ashes, Lehmann from the Tower of Thunder, and Medeline.
It was a pity that Lehmann was sent to a dangerous world by the higher-ups of the alliance. It was said that the mission was given by the Demonic Phoenix herself.
Lehmann was lured away, and Hathaway was sealed in ice. Medeline was the only one left. Of course, she couldn't do anything on her own.
To make matters worse, the Demonic Phoenix had chosen the right time to launch an attack on the White River Valley.
Before the Cataclysm, the alliance could still be used.
When the news of the Cataclysm came, the legendary wizards who had stayed in the White River Valley all went to prepare for their own matters.
Everyone had friends and families, and even some forces.
O 'Brien went to the north and asked all the nightwalkers to gather in the Forest of Thousand Leaves. The old shadow thief went to the north and the Celestial Deer disappeared. The Great Druids hurried back to the north to report to the Migratory Bird Council. Even Constantine went to the Sage Desert to inform the remaining members of the Sand Tribe about the impending danger.
The White River Valley was in a lot of trouble.
Not only that, they were like a group of dragons without a leader. Daniela and Vigny obviously couldn't make everyone feel at ease.
Right now, the White River Valley needed Ma Wen the most.
However, Ma Wen wasn't in a hurry.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Are you saying that your arcana barrier will lose its effect tomorrow and Monica will charge in?"
Medeline nodded with difficulty.
Ma Wen sneered.
"What if Monica is dead?"
Medeline was startled. Under her incredulous gaze, Ma Wen took out the Mithril Diamond.
The aura on his body continued to rise!
His eyes were filled with determination.
Now was the time.
He would become the ruler of the night!
