Night fell. Mituryū Kanao now had people on night duty every day to prevent any sneak attacks.
Lü Shu sat cross-legged on the city wall and rested with his eyes closed. His spiritual will was connected to the entire body of water.
Normally, with Lü Shu guarding the city, and flying was prohibited in the capital, there were 11 Great Grandmasters in the inner city, including Lü Shu, Ming Yueye, and Lü Xiaoyu's captured souls, as well as the four Jianlu masters, including Jiang Shuyi and Gu Lingfei. Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to launch a sneak attack.
Even if a Great Grandmaster came here, they could die at any moment, unless they came in groups!
Therefore, in theory, the inner city was not too afraid of sneak attacks.
However, Li Liang was not at ease. What if a Great Grandmaster really wanted to come? Creatures at the level of Great Grandmasters were the natural enemies of any fortification. As long as they came here, they could easily break through and open the city from the inside.
In any case, there was no harm in being careful.
Lü Shu was resting with his eyes closed. At this time, no one came to attack, so it was a rare moment of peace. It was quite comfortable. If only Li Heitan was not beside him …
Li Heitan squatted beside Lü Shu and nagged that the Ten Kings of Hell had rearranged the positions. Everyone felt that Li Heitan was not suitable to be King Qinguang. After all, King Qinguang was the first King, and the others had to be ranked behind Li Heitan.
At this time, Li Heitan also felt that it was a bit wrong for him to be ranked first in Mituryū Kanao, so he agreed to rearrange the positions. How should they be arranged? Everyone said that they should be arranged according to age, just like swearing brotherhood!
Li Heitan was excited when he heard about swearing brotherhood. Wasn't this something that only appeared in storytellers' stories?
However, he soon lost his excitement. Li Heitan was only in his twenties, but Zhang Weiyu and the others who were lined up with him were at least four hundred years old. Wasn't this bullying?
However, Zhang Weiyu and the others said that it was settled. The minority should obey the majority, and Li Heitan had already agreed to it. Of course, the older one should be the big brother. Do you want to be a villain who goes back on his words?
This ranking was made by more than fifty people in the Inner Palace. How could Li Heitan explain himself? He was actually removed from the list of King Qinguang of the First Palace by the Yama of the Ten Palaces …
The difference was so huge that Li Heitan found it hard to accept it.
Lü Shu didn't pay any attention to him. Wouldn't he be looking for trouble if he were to compare his age with Zhang Weiyu and the other old fogies? Didn't he see how smart Chen Zu'an and Cheng Qiuqiao were? The moment they heard that it was a competition of age, they immediately backed out …
At that moment, Lü Shu suddenly looked up at the dark sky. There was a puzzled look in his eyes.
However, before he could finish his puzzlement, Li Heitan suddenly stood up. His muscular body squatted slightly on the city wall before he exerted his strength. The trident in his hand shot straight into the sky like a bolt of lightning!
The sturdy trident made a humming sound in the air. Lü Shu could even see the trident breaking the sound barrier!
In less than a second, something in the sky let out a tragic cry and fell straight to the water surface.
Just as Li Heitan was about to recall his trident, a huge creature suddenly emerged from the water surface and swallowed the trident along with the monster that was shot …
"Your Majesty, it ate my weapon!" Li Heitan felt a little aggrieved.
Lü Shu expressionlessly handed a new trident to Li Heitan and said calmly, "This weapon of yours was originally its snack …"
Previously, when Lü Shu gave the trident to Chaos, he told it to eat as much as it wanted. However, he didn't allow it to eat later on. Chaos was already a little angry, so it would be strange if it returned the trident that was already in its mouth to Li Heitan!
However, here came the problem. Lü Shu always thought that no one could break through the territory in the sky. In the end, the scene just now made him feel that Mituryū Kanao had to make a new plan … Someone else should make the plan.
"Your Majesty, what was that that was shot down just now?" Li Heitan hugged the new trident happily.
"Purgatory Blood Demon," Lü Shu said calmly.
Although he had recognized this thing when Yi Qian drew it for him, this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes. He did not expect it to be able to fly without being affected by the Forbidden Air Domain and directly use its wings to flap in the air.
There were quite a lot of birds in the capital. So, this no-fly territory only restricted magical power!
According to Yi Qian, many of these Purgatory Blood Demons didn't even have time to grow their wings before they transformed. However, many of them had already grown their wings. Therefore, Mituryū Kanao would definitely have to face an overwhelming number of Purgatory Blood Demons descending from the sky in the future!
The population of the Northern Region was too large. A conservative estimate was that Qing Kong had turned at least 60% of the Northern Region's people into Purgatory Blood Demons.
In the past, even when Mituryū Kanao attacked the Western Region, he only faced the defending army. However, the number of people here was tens, hundreds, or even thousands of times more than the defending army!
This was a fierce battle, an unimaginably fierce battle.
…
In the mountain forest, several hundred people were taking advantage of the darkness to rush towards the south. The leader of the group had a pale face and no beard. If Lv Shu were here, he would have remembered that he had seen this person long ago in Yu Fuyao's Eastern Capital Imperial Residence.
These hundreds of people walked through the forest as if they were walking on flat ground. It was as if they weren't obstructed by the terrain at all. Some of them even shuttled between trees, their bodies as light and agile as swallows.
The person in front of the East Capital Palace stopped in his tracks. He checked the map in his hands and looked at the lake at the foot of the mountain. "This is the place. Now, dig up the rocks here and clean it up. Then, transfer all the water from the capital to the Southern Region!"
This location was rather special. It was originally a huge canyon with a huge ravine between two mountain peaks. The terrain was extremely low.
However, the mountain had collapsed at some point, causing the ravine to be sealed up by the mountain rocks. The water flow had also been cut off. This person from the East Capital Palace had brought people here under orders to release the floodwater.
Now, everyone was very clear that they couldn't attack if the floodwater wasn't released. Where would they release it to? To block Wen Zaifou, of course.
Hundreds of figures moved. One by one, they leaped into the mountains, planning to use their own methods to open up a path through the mountain rocks.
However, at this moment, a black shadow appeared out of thin air. The people from the East Capital Palace only had time to recognize that it was an imperial robe before they completely lost consciousness.
Everyone was indescribably shocked. A cultivator with a perceptive constitution instantly roared, "It's a Great Grandmaster. Run!"
"Run?" The black shadow laughed coldly.
The hundreds of people scattered and fled into the forest. At this time, they couldn't care less about releasing the floodwater! Meanwhile, that black shadow traveled through the forest and mercilessly slaughtered these hundreds of people. It seemed as if it was effortless!
After Wen Zaifou was done, he steadied himself and cursed, "Did I give you face? No one can stop my army to rescue the emperor! "
