Chapter 732: Golden Mountain World (2/2)
Even though they drove out the last wave of demonic beast attacks, a significant number of demonic beast clans’ masters had sneaked into the Golden Mountain World, hiding in various corners. There had been an inflood of reports related villages, towns, and even cities being annihilated.
The most crucial task right now was to weed out these demonic beast clans’ masters that had snuck in. Otherwise, the unfavorable hidden dangers would increase for their side.
Huang Xiaolong, Fang Hengning, and He Jing’s accommodations were arranged at a courtyard within the headquarters.
For the time being, they could only wait until the Alliance pinpointed the locations of those hidden demonic beast clans’ masters before heading out to deal with them.
Two days passed in waiting.
With nothing happening in the two days, Huang Xiaolong stayed inside the Alliance headquarters, cultivating.
On the third day, someone from the Alliance came over, informing Huang Xiaolong that a group of more than twenty demonic beast clans’ masters had appeared in a northern city, consisting of Fifth Order, Sixth Order, and Seventh Order God Realm masters. Huang Xiaolong was tasked to deal with them.
When Huang Xiaolong arrived at the hall, Feng Hengning, He Jiang, Yu Ze, Liang Guang, and several other masters were already there, discussing a solution of said matter.
“In my opinion, we should get our peoplethere as fast as possible and kill that bunch of demonic beast clans’ masters.” said Yu Ze
Fang Hengning and the other council representative nodded in agreement. Following that was the problem of who and how many people to send.
In the end, they decided to send He Jing, a mid-Eighth Order God Realm, and another early Eighth Order God Realm master from the Fu Family to lead a group of Sixth Order and Seventh Order God Realm cultivators over.
A group of thirty-two people was assembled.
Both Huang Xiaolong and Liang Guang were included within the thirty-two people selected.
From Fang Hengning, Yu Ze, and the other council representatives’ perspective, He Jiang, Fu Qian, Huang Xiaolong, Liang Guang, and the remaining twenty-eight masters were more than enough to obliterate a bunch of demonic beast clans’ masters.
After all, from the information they received, the strongest one in that group was only a Seventh Order God Realm.
Without delay, the group of thirty-two human cultivators departed from the Alliance headquarters, flying off to that city in the north of Golden Mountain World.
Half a day later, the Alliance’s masters arrived at the said city.
However, what entered their sight was a ruined city. A thick bloody scent filled the air, and as for that bunch of demonic beast clans’ masters, there wasn't a single one in sight. Everyone was slightly frowning.
“Enter the city and check.” He Jing ordered with a sullen face.
Huang Xiaolong and the rest flew out in various directions, stopping randomly above the city and checking the situation below. Corpses littered everywhere on the streets, corpses of women, children, elderly, city soldiers, as well as some families’ disciples. Dismembered limbs and heads without a body, corpses with their livers ripped out were lying here and there.
“Those beasts are really inhumane!” Fu Qian was seething with anger. Despite death already being a common event, it was hard to stomach the cruelty in front of them.
Huang Xiaolong looked around in doubt.
According to the report they received, the defense line of this city didn't seem that easy to penetrate. Some of the bigger families residing inside the city had quite a few low and mid-level God Realm masters. Based on the strength of that group of demonic beast clans’ masters, the chances of them breaking past the city’s defenses so fast, and on top of that, with enough time to obliterate a city before they arrived, should have been low.
Unless!
A possibility occurred to Huang Xiaolong—the strength of those demonic beast masters was not as reported, between Fifth Order and Seventh Order God Realm.
Almost at the same time, He Jing, Fu Qian, and others also thought of the same possibility.
“Return to headquarters first!” He Jing made a decisive call.
Just as everyone turned to leave, somewhere up ahead, a child’s cry for help rang in the quiet city.
