Not a single person expected to hear such a preposterous plan. Who would imagine that Mo Wen would actually suggest leaving the city to fight Muhong City Mayor?

Everyone inhaled sharply. This young cultivator, what was he if not crazy? A lot of the higher level cultivators were starting to think this young man was unhinged. Before this, perhaps they had only felt this young man was foolish and impulsive… but now, foolish and impulsive were words to kind to be used to describe this young man. He was utterly and completely mad!

There were hundreds of thousands of Muhong City cultivators outside the city walls, and there were just as many spiritual power cannons too.

Hundreds and thousands of spiritual power cannons—what was going on? It was likely that even the Muhong City Mayor would be afraid of standing in front that many spiritual power cannons himself. To a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator, the cannons posed a real threat. And at this time, Mo Wen was actually thinking of leaving the city! He would probably be turned to dust by the spiritual power cannons without the protection of Yingyun City’s stratagems.

“You can’t, you really can’t.”

Huai Hongxiu blanched. How could this person be this reckless? She had never seen someone as insane as Mo Wen before. She had initially thought she could rely on him to jointly take down the Muhong City Mayor, but now, was this person really reliable?

She felt despaired. Why would that senior send someone like this over? Was she serious about aiding them?

The Huai Clan second young mistress, who had been standing beside her older sister, was speechless. Back then, when she had first known with him, she did not think he was foolish. Why was she thinking that he was becoming more and more…

Mo Wen did not pay attention to the people who were trying to convince him otherwise. He bounded out right away, stepping out of the perimeters of Yingyun City in just two steps.

All of the cultivators in Yingyun City paled. There were hundreds of thousands of energy blasts being discharged outside the walls, so much so that even calling it a storm would be an understatement.

“Hurry up and come back…” The Huai Clan first and second young mistress both paled instantly. No one had expected for Mo Wen to be this headstrong. He paid no heed to any of their persuasions, and in any case, it was already too late to stop him now.

Exclamations of shock echoed from the city walls as everyone was screaming for Mo Wen to return. Regardless of what they thought of him, he was still on their side, and he was a force to be reckoned with. If he died because of the thousands of cannons firing, it would be such a sorry and wasteful end.

As for Mo Wen, he was visibly unaffected with the concerns of people behind him. He stood leisurely outside the city, so at ease that he walked about the city to take a short tour of the surroundings.

It was dark outside the walls, and all kinds of spiritual light filled his sight. The battle in the Immortal Cultivation World was an awe-inspiring sight indeed, but one that would end in untold destruction, in every sense apocalyptical. At least half of Yingyun Island had been utterly destroyed. The ground was full of craggy bumps and hollows, and there were deep cracks all over the place. Beyond the island, waves rose to be hundreds of feet high, surging violently upon Yingyun Island, as if they were about to swallow the island whole.

The cultivators had enough power to alter the nature of Heaven and Earth entirely. At the same time, they were also strong enough to destroy it.

Mo Wen might have been leisurely appreciating the sights of battle, but the cultivators on Yingyun City were stunned. All of them looked at him with varying expressions of fear and anguish, and everyone anticipating for when he would be torn to shreds by the storm of deadly beams of energy.

Rumble!

A wave of attacks was coming straight at him, but Mo Wen did not bother evading or even blocking. He welcomed it – and allowed the attack to strike upon his body.

Such attacks were nothing more than a scratch to him. He had cultivated the Celestial Body and therefore did not fear these attacks at all. He feared the power that could wipe him out in an instant, so what he faced now was no more than a mere drizzle.

Others might say his body was slight, and it had a smaller surface area for the blast to take effect, but he was not at all afraid, not even if there were thousands of spiritual power cannons firing at him at the same time.

“Hurry and come back, Mo Wen. The Muhong City Mayor will definitely strike you hard later,” Huai Hongxiu said urgently.

With Mo Wen’s cultivation, she was not too afraid of the mass of attacks outside. What she feared most was the Muhong City Mayor discovering he had stepped out, then commanding for all the cultivators and thousands of spiritual power cannons to attack him at once. That would be truly horrific.

The Huai Clan second young mistress paled instantly and called out ceaselessly for Mo Wen to return. She could not figure out why someone would run out like this, for absolutely no reason, to seek death. Even if he was not afraid of the spiritual power cannons, there was still the Muhong City Mayor outside as well as the hundreds of high-level cultivators.

Mo Wen ignored the shouts coming from behind him, and he took one step forward. He had just broken through to the Tide Changing Realm intermediary stage, and now wanted to test how strong the Muhong City Mayor really was. Naturally, he could not retreat.
