"Lord of the City, what's the matter with summoning us here so late?"

Shang Bai of the First Martial Arts Family walked in with a big grin, he also knew about the food problem, but he had prepared enough food to ensure that his family would not starve, not only him, but almost all the martial arts families and other big families.

"Oh, I called everyone over so late, in fact, I want to discuss some things, Xuancheng, which is nine hundred miles away from Rongchang City, is facing the siege of the beast tide, and due to the food problem, the vast majority of cultivators have already left, so now I have come to ask us to send troops to help fight against the beast tide. ”

"Beast Tide ......."

Shang Bai frowned, and said: "People who practice martial arts, it is their duty to protect their families and defend the country, when the beast tide is coming, we will naturally go, but we can go to resist the enemy, but we will definitely not send it to death." ”

"Right"

At this time, an elder of the Muhua Sect also walked out and said lightly: "Xuancheng is close to the Chiyun Mountain Range, it is a sixth-level mountain range, once the beast tide breaks out, there will naturally be countless demon beasts above the sixth-level level. We can fight a battle that we are sure of, but we will never fight this kind of battle without any chance of winning. ”

The opinions of the cultivators are very unanimous, that is, they will not go to Xuancheng to lie in the troubled water this time, if it is the defense of Rongchang City, they will protect it even if they die, but Xuancheng will not.

Just as everyone was discussing this, another soldier ran in and said loudly: "Report to the marshal, there are a large number of demon beasts gathered outside the city, and they are afraid of attacking the city." ”

"Let's go, go up to the wall!"

Zhang Zhao sacrificed the Cangsheng Sword and flew out in an instant, followed by the major patriarchs and sect representatives.

When Zhang Zhao left the City Lord's Mansion and had not yet reached the city wall, he saw that there were many strange cultivators in the sky, their faces were solemn, and some of them seemed to have experienced a bloody battle, constantly circling in the sky above Rongchang City, as if they were hesitating whether to stay here or not.

After coming to the city wall, looking outside the city, a large number of beast tides gathered not far ahead, densely packed, and there was no end in sight at a glance.

"Flame Spirit"

At this time, an elderly cultivator squeezed out these words from between his teeth, and when he said this, everyone looked ahead, only to see that in the midst of the beast tide, there was a monster beast that reminded of the huge, like a tiger and a lion, and with a purple breath all over its body.

This was none other than a seventh-level Fire Essence Golden Beast, whose strength could easily shred apart a supreme-level powerhouse.

In addition to these seventh-level Fire Essence Golden Beasts, the rest are all first-level and second-level demon beasts, and there are few above the third level, among which there are some fifth- and sixth-level demon beasts.

The monsters looked at the walls and let out a low roar, but they didn't attack, as if waiting for something.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but look up at the sky, only to see that the sky was like ink, the dark clouds were overwhelming, and the night was dark and windy, looking dead and silent.

"City Lord, what are you looking at?"

Seeing Zhang Zhao looking up at the sky, Shang Bai couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zhang Zhao frowned tightly, and said slowly: "Generally, this kind of big event will not happen without warning, now it is both a beast tide and a shortage of food, it must be God who is making trouble behind his back." ”

"This ......."

For Zhang Zhao's words, everyone doesn't understand them, and even if they can understand them, now that things have happened, how to deal with them is the key to the problem.

"These demon beasts seem to have come from the Cangyue Kingdom. ”

"Cangyue Country?"

Zhang Zhao looked at this group of demon beasts suspiciously, they did not attack, they were still converging, it was obvious that a demon king had appeared among the demon beasts, who could command these demon beasts to attack.

"Withdraw, withdraw. ”

After a while, all the demon beasts evacuated outside Rongchang City, and there was not a single one left in just a few minutes.

When the demon beasts ran away, Zhang Zhao received the news that the demon beasts on the other side of Xuancheng had also left, temporarily relieving the crisis.

This seems to be good news, but Zhang Zhao knows that things are definitely not that simple.

"Go find a cultivator who has escaped from outside, and I'm going to ask about the situation. ”

"Hmm"

An old man nodded, then flew into the sky, and soon returned with a swordsman.

"Where are you from?"

The swordsman looked stunned, as if he had not yet recovered from his fear, and after a few seconds, he replied, "Cangyue Kingdom." ”

"Is there a beast tide over there?"

"Hmm"

The swordsman nodded and said, "Not only the Cangyue Country, but many cities have erupted with beast tides of different sizes, and now all the outside are demon beast groups, and it is already considered luck to be able to escape here." ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Zhao suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, now the situation in Rongchang City was like that year in the northwest, when he didn't understand what was going on, the Golden Eagle Sect army had already spread all over the northwest, cutting off all roads, and he didn't dare to move around at will between cities, because once he left the city and met a group of demon beasts, he might not be able to leave.

"Oops!"

Suddenly, Bai Xing exclaimed, and said with a face full of consternation: "I finally understand why the heaven-level city is closed now, they have noticed the matter of the beast tide before, and the closed gate is not to block the refugees due to famine, but the beast tide. ”

"Judging from the current situation, the demon beasts of these divisions in other cities should all be mobilized to the heaven-level cities. ”

"The strength of the heaven-level city is strong, attracting a large number of demon beasts, and also buying us a certain amount of time to prepare. ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Zhao shook his head again and again, and said: "I don't think that's the reason, the beast tide can be so unified, it must be the emergence of a high-level demon king with a super high IQ, he can mobilize all the demon beasts in other places there, he must have the certainty of victory." Let's imagine that once the heaven-level city is broken, then this group of beast tides will definitely be fully replenished and their strength will increase, so in this way, who else around the heaven-level city can resist this beast tide that has been supplied to the peak?"

"Then you mean, we take someone to the heaven-level city to help?"

Zhang Zhao shook his head and said, "That's not the case, the situation outside is very grim now, and the more you get to the heaven-level city, there are more demon beasts, and we can't go." And even if we go, heaven-level city, can he treat us? Even if we do, can we deal with the demon beasts as we like?"

Zhang Zhao's words sounded a wake-up call for everyone, the heaven-level city, that is a big city ten times larger than Rongchang City, just imagine, how can such a big city be managed without a little arrogance? If he brings someone over to help now, it would be good if people didn't treat him as a refugee, who gave you that opportunity to let you fight against the demon beast?

"Senior Shang is right, the heaven-level city has attracted a large number of demon beasts, which just gives us enough time to prepare. ”
