Ye Tianze didn't leave the nine-story pagoda. He didn't even announce his return.
While he was recuperating on the fifth floor of the nine-story pagoda, a shocking piece of news spread throughout the entire Buzhou Mountain.
"Is the City Lord … really dead?"
This news caused a sensation in the entire Stone City. People were talking about it. The system that Ye Tianze had established was shaken instantly.
Lee Chao-young got the news almost immediately. She immediately sent out all the spies in Stone City.
Once the army was shaken, she would immediately use the backup plan to kill those who were shaken.
But Lee Chao-young also knew that these people couldn't be killed. Once the people's hearts were shaken, it was impossible to win them back. Killing them was only a temporary solution.
If too many were killed, it would have the opposite effect.
In the Ancestral Hall of Stone City, the seven generals of the Tiger Tribe, the Commander Zhu Fu Ming, the Military Advisor Zhuge Qi, and the Deputy Commander Zhou Chong were all gathered in the Ancestral Hall.
Everyone's face was full of gloom.
Even Tang Tianjun, who was usually the best at livening up the atmosphere, remained silent.
"Where did the news come from?" Zhuge Qi asked.
"From the Outsiders!"
Wan Tong said, "Furthermore, it was the four emperors of the alien race. They informed their race that the Sovereign of Darkness, who had occupied Mount Buzhou, had been killed by the four emperors. The City Lord, he … he didn't go up the mountain to cultivate. He … he had a treasure that could suppress the Sovereign of Darkness!"
The Ancestral Hall was silent again.
If this news came from the Heavenly Academy, the Wizard Alliance, or the Divine Castle, they might think it was fake news.
It was to shake the foundation of Stone City.
Although Stone City could still function without Ye Tianze, the problem was that Ye Tianze was too important to Stone City. As long as he was there, they wouldn't be afraid of the fall of the Human Emperor. Even if Lu Xiufu couldn't withstand the pressure and abandoned them, they would still dare to fight for the will of Stone City.
However, without Ye Tianze, how could the will of Stone City be mentioned?
"It's impossible. How could Boss have fallen? I've been with Boss for so long. He fought all the way from Tiannan to the Southern Land, then to the Imperial Dragon Realm, and then to Mount Buzhou. He had encountered so many dangers, but he had been stepping on blood all the way until he had today's foundation. How could he?!"
When Tang Tianjun received the news, he naturally didn't believe it. However, as the source of the news was confirmed, the mountain in his heart instantly collapsed.
Tang Yuan looked at Tang Tianjun without saying anything.
Gao Cainyun clenched her fists tightly. Her body flashed with lightning. Even if Tang Tianjun didn't believe it, even if they didn't believe it, this news was worth believing.
There was no need for the Four Emperors to tell such a big lie for Ye Tianze. Furthermore, how could Ye Tianze deal with a King of Darkness that required the Four Emperors to attack at the same time?
Recalling the words Ye Tianze said when he left that day, they seemed to understand something in their hearts. He was his last words!
"No wonder Big Brother said … told us not to disappoint him. So … so he was going to die!" Feng Wuhui's body trembled slightly.
He and Ye Tianze were sworn brothers. He found it harder to accept Ye Tianze's fall than Tang Tianjun.
It was as if overnight, he had returned to the night when his parents were killed on the ninth floor of Feng Ge.
Ye Tianze and his grandfather were his only two relatives in this world. Although they weren't blood relatives, they were closer than blood relatives.
When Tang Tianjun heard this, he immediately cursed, "Feng, if you dare to say the word 'die' again, believe it or not, I'll chop you with a hatchet first!"
No one expected Tang Tianjun's emotions to be so intense. They were shocked by his murderous appearance.
Feng Wuhui stood up. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he sat down. He knew the pain in Tang Tianjun's heart.
Because he was also in pain. Moreover, there was no benefit to quarreling now.
"Sit down!"
Tang Yuan coldly shouted.
Tang Tianjun sat down. Tang Yuan cupped his hands and apologized to Feng Wuhui, but Feng Wuhui didn't seem to see half of it.
"Impossible. How could Boss die? Impossible. Back then, Boss said that he would lead us to destroy all the powers in this world. He said that he would destroy all the powers that were above our heads … impossible …"
Everyone looked over and found that Tang Tianjun, a seven foot tall man, was actually crying.
Seeing this, everyone's heart ached. Even Lee Chao-young's eyes turned red. Her reputation in Buzhou Mountain was the worst.
Because everyone was afraid of her. Not only outsiders were afraid of her, even the people of Stone City were afraid of her.
However, Lee Chao-young knew that no matter how many people were afraid of her, no matter how many people wanted to kill her because of fear, it didn't matter.
Because there was one person who knew everything she did. He knew that she did everything for Stone City.
She found out from others that she was this person's goshawk. At that time, she didn't sleep well.
Goshawk, that's right, she was this person's goshawk. Because as long as he was alive, she would always be the goshawk that soared between heaven and earth.
She respected Ye Tianze as if he was Bo Le. Although she was afraid of Ye Tianze, she respected him even more.
"Is it over?" In the midst of Tang Tianjun's sobbing, Zhuge Qi suddenly stood up, "No, it's not over. Don't forget what he said to you when he came up the mountain. He said, don't let him down!"
Zhuge Qi glanced at everyone, "Don't forget. Without him, there would be no Stone City. Without him, we wouldn't be here. Perhaps we would still be in our own alliances, struggling at the foot of the mountain. Humanity wouldn't have the luck it has today!"
He looked at everyone and continued, "Stone City was built by us through battle after battle. We fought with our flesh and blood. We fought with the Five Great Alliance, fought with the Golden Armor of the God race. We took the first step for humanity to climb the mountain. Tell me, do you want to give up? Do you want to give up? Are you willing to give up? "
Tang Tianjun suddenly stood up and wiped her tears, "Boss is gone. We will protect his foundation. We will continue his will. We will fight to the last man. We won't let others take it away, especially those selfish bastards!"
"That's right. If they want to take our things, they will have to step over our corpses!"
Feng Wu Hui said, "Wind department doesn't agree!"
"Thunder department doesn't agree either!" Gao Cen Yun said.
"Water department doesn't agree either." Shanhai Fu and Dugu Nuoyan stood up at the same time.
"Wood department doesn't agree …"
"Metal department doesn't agree …"
"Mountain department doesn't agree …"
"Hahaha, even if my Fire department fights to the last man, we won't agree. Call them over. I will cut them into vegetables, cut them into watermelons!"
Tang Tianjun shouted.
Five days after this news spread across Mount Buzhou, the two alliances announced that they would no longer pay taxes to Stone City. Moreover, they would ask for the taxes collected by Stone City.
If Stone City didn't return them, the two alliances would use force to make Stone City spit it out.
At the same time, Lu Xiufu announced that the White Tiger Corps would remain neutral in the war between the two alliances and Stone City.
Just as Lu Xiufu announced his neutrality, the experts of the three alliances appeared at Mount Buzhou again. Moreover, many of them were old monsters from the mountain.
In half a month, they had gathered an army of a million to attack Stone City.
