"Knock! Knock! "There was a soft knock on the door.
Chu Li activated the Dragon Elephant Wisdom Technique and said, "Please come in."
He Jin hurried in, his eyes bright and in high spirits. When he saw Chu Li standing in the middle of the courtyard, he could not help but laugh. "Master Ding Ru, I have good news for you. Xuanxi Seawall Town has been taken back!"
Chu Li smiled and nodded. "Congratulations."
He had already seen it, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
He Jin laughed. "I didn't expect it to be so smooth. Wan Ziyang didn't come to our rescue and we successfully took back Xuanxi Seawall Town."
Chu Li said, "Maybe it wasn't necessary."
He Jin was stunned, then slowly nodded. The smile on his face faded and he sighed. "This Wan Ziyang is really unpredictable. His actions are unexpected. We've already prepared a way to deal with Wan Ziyang, but we didn't have to use it. How fortunate!"
Chu Li nodded.
They must have prepared sacrificial warriors and invited a few top-notch masters to sacrifice themselves to heavily injure Wan Ziyang.
The disciples of Five Thunder Peak and Morality Hall had the will to die for justice. They were not afraid of death, but they were afraid of dying for the sake of the sect and the world. However, they were calm and would not refuse.
The older a person was, the more they feared death. However, this was not the case after living for a long time. After living for ten thousand years, they would feel tired of the world and want to change their way of living. They wanted to cultivate to the peak level so that even if they died, their souls would not scatter.
He Jin said, "What about West Seawall Town? Is there a chance to take it back? "
Chu Li looked at him and shook his head.
"Wan Ziyang won't stay there forever, right?" He Jin frowned.
Chu Li said, "That's his bottom line. Once the city is taken, he'll definitely make a move."
He Jin pondered. "If we pay a certain price, can we take it back?"
Chu Li said, "Senior He, what's the point of taking it back?"
Two cities had been destroyed, and those who should have entered the mainland had already entered. Even if they took it back, they would not be able to catch up with those people. Instead, after taking the cities, they would stop thinking and focus on developing their forces, which would eventually become a huge problem.
He Jin sighed. "Everyone is still not satisfied …"
After the inland passage was opened up by the Maritime Traveler, their original territory had been divided. This was an extremely unpleasant feeling.
If they did not take back Oceankeeper City, it would mean that from then on, they would be able to come and go as they pleased. If they wanted to stay inland, they would be able to do so, and if they wanted to return to the sea, they would be able to do so. They would have countless advantages over the sects on the mainland. If this continued, they would eventually be surpassed by the sects on the sea.
Chu Li thought for a moment. "Let's go and take a look."
He Jin smiled.
Chu Li and He Jin disappeared at the same time. The next moment, they appeared at the peak of a mountain. From afar, Sea Garrison Town looked like a small black dot. With their extraordinary eyesight, they could clearly see the towering city.
He Jin gazed at Sea Garrison City in the west and said with melancholy, "It was originally our city, but now it has become Sea Traveler's!"
This was definitely not a good feeling.
Chu Li stared at the city for a while before he shook his head. "It's too late."
"What's late?" He Jin hurriedly asked.
Chu Li sighed. "It's too late to take over the city. There's no need for that."
"Why?" He Jin was puzzled. "No matter when, seizing this city will affect the situation of the world."
Chu Li said, "Soon, the West Sea Garrison Town will cease to exist."
"They want to destroy the city?" He Jin's expression changed drastically.
Chu Li slowly nodded.
He Jin gritted his teeth. "Zephyr Island!"
Only Zephyr Island had the power to blow up boulders. Otherwise, with the buildings of Sea Garrison Town in the west, no matter how skilled they were, it would be difficult to destroy the entire city. However, Zephyr Island could create a type of Thunderbolt Bomb that could blow up boulders.
Although the Thunderbolt Bomb was precious and rare, they would grit their teeth and use it to deal with Sea Garrison Town.
Chu Li frowned as he looked at the huge city.
When he first came, he saw the fate of the city. It was still majestic and would last for hundreds of thousands of years. It was obvious how much effort was put into building the city. However, looking at it now, it was about to become ruins and be razed to the ground.
This was obviously caused by the West Sea Garrison Town being taken over.
Fate was unpredictable. The fate of humans was like this, and the fate of a huge city was the same. In front of fate, everything became insignificant.
Chu Li turned to look at He Jin. "Senior He, once this city is turned into ruins, can it be rebuilt?"
"It's very difficult. A bitter expression appeared on He Jin's face. "When the imperial court was still strong, it took a great deal of manpower and resources to build it. It almost emptied the treasury. Now that the imperial court has fallen and there is no ruler in the world, why would such a huge city be built again?"
Chu Li asked, "Even if the sects join forces?"
"It can't be rebuilt." He Jin shook his head.
Chu Li slowly nodded and fell silent. It was useless to say anything more.
"If we send people to attack the city now, can we stop them from blowing it up?" He Jin frowned and asked.
Chu Li shook his head. "It's just a suicide mission!"
"Boom!" A loud noise was heard.
"Rumble …" The loud noises continued without end.
Then, dust was blown and surged up like yellow clouds. In an instant, the entire ancient city was shrouded in dust and could not be seen clearly.
"How dare they —!" He Jin roared and wanted to rush forward.
Sea Garrison Town was already being blown up. He watched helplessly as it was being blown up in front of him. He was shocked and could not help but want to stop it.
Chu Li hurriedly said, "Senior He!"
He Jin turned his head and glared at him. His eyes were red and bloodshot.
Chu Li sighed. "Senior He, it's already blown up. We can't stop it."
"Ah —!" He Jin roared at the sky.
He clenched his teeth and said firmly, "They deserve to die!"
This Sea Garrison Town had gathered the blood of countless sects' disciples and countless people's flesh and blood. However, it was destroyed by Zephyr Island. It was a heinous crime and could not be forgiven!
Chu Li sighed. "Let's go. They'll catch up if we delay any longer!"
He Jin's cultivation level was profound. His long and angry roar drowned out the rumbling explosion and attracted the attention of masters.
"I want to kill to vent my anger!" He Jin gritted his teeth.
Chu Li said, "Wan Ziyang is still here!"
He Jin was instantly discouraged. His face was flushed red and he looked terrible.
He could not vent his anger. His blood was stagnant and he had already suffered internal injuries.
"Go —!" He Jin gritted his teeth and said firmly.
The two returned to Sea Garrison Town.
He Jin's face was flushed and his brows were dark. He did not say a word.
Chu Li did not speak either.
The world's situation had changed. Without the barrier of Sea Garrison Town, sea travelers could freely travel inland. In addition, the world was without a leader. The Imperial Court had collapsed. The sects were the spheres of influence and governed by themselves. Their appearance would only make the world more chaotic.
The unluckiest were the ordinary people. However, there were very few people on First Heaven. Almost everyone could cultivate. After all, this world was filled with outstanding people. It was rich in spiritual energy and had strong bodies. Everyone had the potential to cultivate.
"Master Ding Ru, I'll go back first," He Jin said unhappily.
Chu Li bowed with pressed palms.
After He Jin left, Chu Li calmed down and continued to activate the Dragon Elephant Wisdom.
