Mo Fan looked into the sky. His heart followed the sun as it sank into the horizon.

It turned out that the day was already coming to an end...

Even though the undead had remained active in the day due to the Dew of Nine Serenities, the sunlight was still able to slow their pace down. However, once the night came, the undead would only become wilder!

That being said, why did Mu He insist that the city would not be able to last the night?

The safety barrier was equivalent to the combined power of countless Magicians. Even with all the Ruler-level undead attacking it, the golden barrier would still last a few days!

Did that mean that the Black Vatican were proceeding with their plan tonight?

What plan could it be? Magicians like Han Ji and Lu Huan were available to handle creatures as strong as the Mountain Zombie. As for the Flesh Mound Corpse Officials and the rest of the powerful undead, they still had Imperial Magicians to deal with them. They would simply defend the inner walls with their Magic.

The possibility of breaking into the inner city in a single night?

That was impossible, unless the Qin Emperor Ying Zheng was resurrected tonight, and his strength would need to surpass the Ruler-level!

Was it possible for an emperor that had died so many years ago to still possess such formidable power?

”It's obvious that you've lured me here to learn Salan's identity. The truth is, I've come here because I want you to deliver a message, too,” Mu He said calmly.

”Do you think I will listen to you?” said Mo Fan.

”It's up to you. You used Mu Bai to pass the message to me, so I'll need your help to pass the message to that old man Han Ji. Oh, as for the Underground Holy Spring, I'm betting that you don't have it. Besides, I've already mentioned it. Once the night arrives, your Underground Holy Spring is completely useless. This city won't survive until the next dawn,” said Mu Bai.

A cold breeze mixed with the rain swept past. It was harder for Mo Fan to see Mu He clearly.

Mo Fan's heart had sunk to the bottom when he heard Mu He's words. It seemed like it was meaningless to find out Great Deacon Hu Jin's identity. Mu He was completely fearless. Judging from the madness he had displayed, even if they took him down, he would not tell them who Salan was, either!

They had only managed to lure him here, which Mu He took advantage of so he could send a message to Han Ji. What did he want to say to the President of the Magic Association?

-Is he trying to negotiate?

-Is the Black Vatican trying to negotiate with the Magic Association?-

The Black Vatican had the upper hand in the current situation. They had already dragged countless people into Hell after the inner city was surrounded by the ocean of undead. What would they want to negotiate for?

Could it be that they already knew about the plan to execute the authorities?

-They were trying to save Salan!

”You want to save Salan?” asked Mo Fan coldly.

”Aren't you smart? That's right, we're going to save Senior Salan. Unfortunately, it seems like Han Ji has decided to kill all of them, even if it means killing ten innocent people. Even we are quite thrilled by this bold move. I have to admit, that's a very strong move. We can't let Senior Salan die like that. I want you to tell Han Ji to stop the plan, and we'll give this city a glimpse of hope… otherwise, if Senior Salan dies, those authorities won't be the only ones that will die with him. The whole city will be buried with him. They won't live until the next dawn!” Mu He's voice came like a cold gust.

Millions of people would be buried with Salan!
