Chapter 512: Chapter 276: Mo Wuzong Appears, Four Direction City is in Danger_2
Gu Shunzhang was assigned by the family as a County Governor not just because of his strong martial arts prowess, but also due to his calm temperament and methodical approach to tasks. He was revered as the Qilin Son of the Gu Family.
So even when he saw the middle-aged scholar’s panicked look, he maintained his composure.
“Master, General Lin Feng and the 5,000 soldiers of Qilin Army under him were attacked in the Float Cloud Mountain Range. Their entire army was wiped out.” “The entire army was wiped out?”
Even for someone as calm as Gu Shunzhang, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows after hearing this.
Lin Feng, like him, was from Wu Province, one of the big figures for the future of Four Direction Prefecture.
Of the five thousand Qilin army led by him, one-tenth were the Lin Family’s personal guards, while the rest were conscripted from local martial artists. However, even the weakest soldier in the Qilin army had reached the Meridian Passage Realm in terms of cultivation. Combined with Lin Feng, who was a peak master of the Golden Body Realm, they posed a threat that ordinary forces could not handle.
Wanting them eradicated was an outcome beyond his expectations.
Gu Shunzhang slightly shook his head, then handed one of the documents on his desk to Uncle Liu, saying, “Uncle Liu, this is the plan for the merging and establishment of Four Direction Prefecture’s cities and counties. Distribute it to the mansions of the Twelve City Lords, insisting they must implement this plan and complete the transformation within a month.”
Receiving the document, Uncle Liu was hesitant.
“Master, what about the incident in the Float Cloud Mountain Range?”
“This incident is beyond the capabilities of Four Direction City. I will report the truth. It won’t be long before the Demon Suppression Army arrives.”
Gu Shunzhang spoke lightly, “To deal with the remnants of these sects, we must rely on the power of the Demon Suppression Army.”
“I heard one of the Demon Suppression Army’s legions is garrisoned in Sky Pool City. It’s quite close to our Four Direction City…” Uncle Liu tentatively said.
Gu Shunzhang nodded slightly. “A few days ago, I sent people to ask for help. If everything goes as expected, the Demon Suppression Army should arrive within three days.
Uncle Liu, you need to compile all the demons around Four Direction City so I can explain the situation to the commander of the Demon Suppression Army.”
“Yes, Master.”
After finishing his words, Uncle Liu slowly exited the study.
Gu Shunzhang, appearing more worried than before, bore an expression of concern. The situation in Four Direction City was far more serious than Uncle Liu knew.
There were many families harboring ill-intentions, with remnants of the sects coveting their territory. Without the Elder from the Origin Martial Academy in the city, he alone wouldn’t be able to maintain the city’s stability.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Gu Shunzhang let out a deep breath, then gazed at the sky outside through the window of his study.
“I just hope that the incident in the Float Cloud Mountain doesn’t involve the remnants of the Red Moon Demon Sect.”
As the future County Governor of Four Direction Prefecture, he had access to many insider pieces of information.
On past battlefields, seven or eight Golden Core Realm masters and dozens of Rune Seed Realm masters of the Red Moon Demon Sect had escaped.
These strong masters, even if they didn’t all gather together, could cause significant damage if four or five of them assembled.
Especially the few Golden Core Realm masters. They were absolutely terrifying entities. Any one of them could easily annihilate the achievements he made in Four Direction City.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The earth suddenly trembled.
In the distance, a formidable crowd appeared, filling the horizon.
Looking at the overwhelmingly massive, dark crowd of strong men, all the martial artists in Four Direction City were visibly horrified.
The young talents and warriors from various county families of Morigin were all despondent.
“Four Direction City is done for, and the investments my Huang Family made here will be completely wasted.” An elderly man said, a look of despair in his eyes.
Uncle Liu, who had just left the City Lord’s Mansion, was filled with despair upon seeing the sudden arrival of the powerful figures in Four Direction City. “How could so many strong men appear all at once?”
He himself had an impressive martial arts cultivation, but he could not discern the details of at least twenty people in the crowd.
This meant that there were at least twenty Rune Seed Realm masters among them.
Whereas in Four Direction City, even if Counting Gu Shunzhang, the elder from Origin Martial Academy, and the future Prefecture Captain and Deputy, there were only four Rune Seed Realm masters.
In terms of high-end combat power alone, Four Direction City was completely overshadowed.
Not to mention, their opponents had so many Golden Body Realm and Origin Fluid Realm warriors.
Facing such a large scale of sect martial artists, the city defense forces of Four Direction City were completely insignificant.
Boom boom boom.
On the distant horizon, an army of tens of thousands of Martial Artists was advancing with overpowering momentum.
At the same time, more than twenty warriors of the Rune Seed Realm and hundreds of the Gold Body Realm appeared out of thin air.
“Those are the Sect Master and Supreme Elder of the Red Sun Sect.”
In Four Direction City, a middle-aged man clad in black armor spoke, he was one of the commanders of the Qilin Army, a strong warrior of the Gold Body Realm.
However, facing such a huge number of powerful warriors, a Gold Body Realm warrior alone wasn’t much of a help.
“What are the Red Sun Sect, Green Jade Sect, and Puzzle Hall trying to do?” The family powerhouses within Four Direction City felt a foreboding feeling.
Above Four Direction City, a Rune Seed Realm powerhouse spoke, “Listen well, people of Four Direction City, I am the Sect Master of the Green Jade Sect. My purpose here is to drive out the people of the Morign Dynasty, anyone who surrenders to our sects can avoid unnecessary slaughter.”
“Aren’t the Red Sun Sect and the Green Jade Sect afraid of being annihilated by the Demon Suppression Army?” Uncle Liu couldn’t help but ask.
That was his biggest doubt. These sects should be terrified at this moment, yet they dared to attack Four Direction City.
The Sect Master of Green Jade Sect snorted coldly, “Don’t pretend that we don’t know the attitude of Morign towards Hundred Sects. None of the sects survived the Demon Suppression Army’s rampage. Rather than waiting for the army to come to us, we might as well strike first.”
With those words, he dived down from the sky.
At the same time, scores of Martial Artists who came with him, all set off towards Four Direction City.
“All generals, heed my command, protect Four Direction City, kill!” Prefecture Captain Li Gang roared.
The twenty-five thousand Qilin Army charged out like a flood, engaging in a deadly battle with the invasion force.
Limbs flew, blood splattered!
The intersection of cries, screams, and intense battle noises created a bloody and tragic scene.
The twenty-five thousand Qilin Army simply couldn’t hold off these powerful warriors.
The commanders of the Qilin Army, under the siege of numerous Golden Body Realm warriors, were continuously beaten back, some even perishing.
In terms of numbers and strength, Four Direction City’s battle power was unable to hold off the combined forces of Green Jade Sect, Red Sun Sect, and other sects.
“Hmph, do they really think there’s no one left in Four Direction City?”
At this moment, a cold voice echoed through the void.
A burst of tremendous pressure spread out.
All the Qilin Army and the city defenders in Four Direction City felt a quaking in their bodies, experienced a sense of suffocation.
In the sky, a figure in a white robe appeared, it was Master Changshan from the Origin Martial Academy.
“Golden Core Realm powerhouse…”
When Master Changshan appeared, the Sect Masters of Green Jade and Red Sun Sects, along with the other Rune Seed Realm powerhouses, were taken aback.
Four Direction City, unexpectedly, had a Golden Core Real Master guarding it.
“A Golden Core Realm real master… This Elder from Origin Martial Academy turns out to be a Golden Core Realm powerhouse!”
The commanders of the Qilin Army made joyfully tearful cries.
Uncle Liu also displayed great joy, like a man finding a lifeline in a desperate situation.
Before this, he was unaware of Master Changshan’s true strength, only knowing that he planned to establish a martial academy in Four Direction Prefecture.
Knowing Master Changshan’s capacity now, he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, before Uncle Liu and the commanders of the Qilin Army could even rejoice, another two Golden Core Realm auras exploded in the sky.
One of the individuals was a young man in a dark gold robe, Mo Wuzong, the Heavenly Pride of Red Moon Demon Sect.
Even Master Changshan’s face changed at this moment.
Even though he was a Golden Core Realm powerhouse, he had just advanced recently, and he was powerless against two warriors of the same rank, who were not weaker than him.
Moreover, he felt an extremely strong oppressive force emanating from the young man in the dark golden robe.
The glimmer of hope that had just arisen in the hearts of Uncle Liu and the others was extinguished with the appearance of these two Golden Core Realm powerhouses.
Gu Shunzhang’s eyes also reflected a flashing sense of despair.
Master Changshan had always been his trump card, even though he knew that dozens of Rune Seed Realm warriors were besieging Four Direction City, he didn’t despair.
Because, a Golden Core realm real master could turn the tide.
However, the enemy also had Golden Core Realm powerhouses, and there were two of them at that.
“Could it be that even the heavens are against me, Gu Shunzhang?” Gu Shunzhang clenched his fists, looking desolately at the endless sky..
