Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Ye Zichen and company, who had been clearing out the wraiths in the surroundings, suddenly heard a series of explosions.
After killing the last wraiths around him, Ye Zichen looked in the direction of Maple City with a frown.
"Do you know what's going on?"
"It feels like something is self-destructing," Third Fatty Jin replied calmly.
Third Fatty Jin replied indifferently. They were already used to self-destruction.
Along the way to Maple City, they had seen countless experts in villages choose to self-destruct in order to protect their villages … Even if it was just for a bit more hope of survival.
"These fellows from the Devil Realm!"
Ye Zichen clenched his fist. Third Fatty Jin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Demon Realm? Aren't they wraiths? "
"I've chatted with the leader of the Underworld, the Great Sacred Emperor Equaling Heaven. He said that the person who opened the eighteen levels of hell had the aura of demons," Ye Zichen replied with a dark expression.
Then he let out a long sigh and shook his head, "Never mind, now isn't the time to talk about this.
Let's hurry to Maple City, "Ye Zichen replied with a dark expression.
Wuuu …
The wails of wraiths sounded out outside Maple City. The foreheads of the guards on the city walls were covered in sweat, but they still gritted their teeth and maintained the city-protecting formation.
As time went on, the number of people who volunteered to fight outside Maple City decreased.
On the other hand, the city gates that had lost their defenses would be attacked by even stronger wraiths, causing the guards to feel more and more pressure.
"City Lord, we've lost the north and west gates. There are too many wraiths. The brothers maintaining the formation can't hold on much longer. Hurry up and retreat with the young city lord. If it really doesn't work, then we'll just fight it out with them … "
The guards on the east city walls roared. Luo Wei and Luo Yang stood proudly in the sky.
Wraiths filled the area around them, but none of them dared to attack.
This group of vengeful spirits was truly afraid of being killed.
Luo Wei squinted his eyes when he heard the guard's report. He was not surprised at all. Although the wraiths were weak, they had the advantage in numbers.
Even a complete stage Sky Immortal expert wouldn't be able to handle them even if they charged forward to their deaths.
For example, the current Luo Yang, who was at the Sky Immortal level, had a pale face and weak aura. This was the result of over-consumption of spiritual energy.
However, he didn't expect that Leisure House would be able to hold on for so long.
"City Lord, come back."
The guards on the city walls frowned and tried to comfort him. In their eyes, anyone could die except the City Lord. The City Lord was the backbone of this city. If he died in battle, then the soldiers and citizens of the city would fall into a state of panic.
"Little Yang, go back."
Luo Wei forcefully pushed Luo Yang behind him. Luo Yang swayed as he steadied himself. His red tasseled spear stabbed into the air.
"If Father doesn't leave, then I won't leave."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Luo Wei glared at him angrily. "Even if you're outside right now, you'll only be a burden to me. Return to the city and recuperate. Come out when you're strong enough to fight."
"No."
Luo Yang's eyes were filled with seriousness. At this moment …
"City Lord."
Luo Wei, who had been so focused on Luo Yang that he did not notice the surrounding Vengeful Spirits launching a wave of attacks on him.
He subconsciously turned around and hugged Luo Yang tightly …
"Lightning Palm, serve me!"
A group of people arrived in the sky. Third Fatty Jin sneered at the nearby Vengeful Spirits. With that, hundreds of Lightning Palms landed on the Vengeful Spirits.
"Kill them all!"
Third Fatty Jin led the charge. He charged towards the Vengeful Spirits with two giant hammers in his hands.
"They're here. They're finally here."
Luo Wei, who was hugging Luo Yang tightly, let out a long sigh of relief. He had chosen to defend the city to the death.
He had chosen to defend the Immortal Region's sacred land's reinforcements!
"Old Xue, we can't hold on much longer. Let's retreat," Stone muttered as he swung his arms.
Stone muttered as he swung his arms. He was fully armed from head to toe, and from the colorful appearance, one could tell that this set of equipment was not cheap.
It wasn't just him. Almost everyone in Leisure House was the same.
Outsiders might be envious of them. These were all equipment forged by Tool Refinement Grandmasters. A single set cost at least a hundred million celeste.
But what could they do? They had no choice. Leisure House had nothing but money.
"No, if we retreat, what about the civilians in the city? Even if we don't care about them, think about our village's name, "Xue Qi shook his head.
Hearing that, Stone also fell silent, "Then what do you want?
We've pretty much finished all the Recovery Pills and Spiritual Nourishing Pills Ye-zi left for us. The only reason we've been able to last this long is because of these pills. No matter how we kill these Vengeful Spirits, they don't show any signs of decreasing. We're going to die here sooner or later. "
"What are you panicking for? Don't you still have me?"
Boom.
A blood-red sickle with unstoppable force tore open a gap in the Vengeful Spirits. Ye Zichen carried the sickle and walked in front of Xue Qi with a smile, then pulled him up from the ground.
"Sorry, I'm late."
"You always like to appear at times like this."
Xue Qi's worried expression also relaxed. He reached out to grab Ye Zichen's arm and stood up. Stone also came over from the side with a relaxed smile on his face.
"Brat, you're finally here. Your Big Brother Stone was eaten by these ghosts."
"Hahaha, if they have the ability!" Ye Zichen laughed heartily, then raised his sickle high up. "Charge!"
"Kill!"
Stone also laughed. Then, everyone from Leisure House charged forward with their weapons in hand.
Ye Zichen was their pillar of support. As long as he was there, then they had nothing to fear.
At the city lord's manor.
Everyone landed in the manor's guest hall. Third Fatty Jin and Ye Zichen joined them. All of the Vengeful Spirits surrounding the city were eliminated.
As for the remaining people outside, Third Fatty Jin, who held great power, naturally sent out his poor junior brothers.
"Chief Jin, it was all thanks to your help that Maple City was spared."
Luo Wei, who sat on the city lord's chair, stood up and bowed towards Third Fatty Jin. Surprisingly, Third Fatty Jin also stood up with a humble smile, "I'm just following my master's orders.
What's more, it wasn't just me that saved Maple City. It was the result of everyone's hard work. "
"Yes, I have to thank Leisure House and the travelers and soldiers who died for Maple City!"
Luo Wei looked up at the sky with a solemn gaze, then bowed three times towards the sky.
Everyone observed a moment of silence. This was only Maple City. The other cities definitely weren't any better.
"I wonder if City Lord Luo has any way of contacting the other cities?"
Ye Zichen asked with a frown. Luo Wei looked at him with a complicated expression, then nodded.
