Chapter 290: 288. Two Divine Profounds Enter the City (2/4) When everyone was startled by the angry shout and crouched down, the group of demons slowly landed.
The golden winged snake’s eyes were fixed ahead, its gaze landing on—Yun Liao.
Shortly after, Nangong Wentian jumped down from the head of the golden winged snake, his gaze also directed at Yun Liao, because Yun Liao was the only one in the Profound Realm among this group.
The Profound Realm still had a high status even in the Mitian Sect.
In this Barbaric Land, it was naturally even more of a rarity.
Anyone who wasn’t a fool could see at a glance that this person had an unusual status in Cangwu City.
Nangong Wentian asked coldly, "There’s actually someone in the Profound Realm. Kid, tell me your background, and I might spare your life!"
But before Yun Liao could speak, Murong Xi quickly spoke, "Senior, we are from the City Lord’s Mansion in Cangwu City... we are just delivering food."
"Did I ask you?"
Nan Hao cast a cold glance over, and just that look made Murong Xi’s body tremble. Accompanied by the pressure of the Divine Profound Realm, he immediately knelt to the ground with a thud. Yun Liao wanted to intervene, but he understood that everyone present was in a higher realm than him, especially the person questioning him.
That feeling, even Shami, who temporarily broke through to the Divine Profound Realm in the Immortal Sect, had never possessed.
It was calm, yet it hid turbulent waves.
If he acted rashly, he couldn’t guarantee the survival of himself and Murong Xi.
Moreover, everyone around looked up to him, which further indicated his unusual status and power; rash resistance would only backfire.
Nangong Wentian looked coldly at Yun Liao, then asked calmly, "Since you’re in the Profound Realm, do you know of the Immortal Sect?"
"I do."
"Tell me what you know, and I might spare you, or even let you join the Mitian Sect. It would be much more satisfying than being the City Lord of a small city."
Yun Liao was taken aback.
Pondering: So he thinks I’m the City Lord.
Without hesitation, Yun Liao responded, "There’s a senior in the Immortal Sect, very powerful."
"Very powerful? Haha."
Nangong Wentian chuckled lightly, unconcerned.
Then, Nan Hao quickly asked, "What realm is he in?"
Yun Liao very "obediently" responded, "I don’t know, just that it’s above the Divine Profound Realm, possibly even stronger. Everyone who goes there seeking revenge ends up dead at the Immortal Sect."
Hearing Yun Liao’s words, Nangong Wentian laughed again.
Above the Divine Profound?
Would such a person stay in this small place?
"But it’s indeed a bit interesting."
After saying that, Nangong Wentian turned around, no longer looking at Yun Liao, and addressed the two behind him, "Ge Hua, Nan Meng, you two go first and lure that person out. If he’s just putting on a front, then bring him directly, alive. In any case, do whatever it takes to draw him out."
The two men in blood-red clothes nodded.
"Yes!"
After responding in unison, they immediately mounted the giant demon and soared towards Cangwu City.
Nan Hao hurriedly asked from the side, "Aren’t we going directly?"
"Just rushing over? Do you think that gold chief or I am stupid? He wants to be the oriole... there’s no way."
Nangong Wentian sneered.
Once they were gone, Nangong Wentian said to Yun Liao, "You, stay here, you’re not allowed to go anywhere; the food your city’s people are counting on won’t make it."
Hearing this, Yun Liao’s face changed.
This powerful giant demon team intends to massacre the city?
Elsewhere, as Cangwu City came into view, Ge Hua spoke indifferently from atop the giant demon, "For such a small city to actually hide someone in the Divine Profound Realm, I’ve never seen such a thing."
A Divine Profound Realm named Nan Meng nearby responded, "Indeed, it’s my first time in such a small place... In any case, luring is the priority. After all, this is his domain."
"Rest assured, luring is my specialty!"
With that, Ge Hua suddenly leaped into the air, over the head of the giant demon, and descended toward the city wall like a falling meteor!
Boom!
As Ge Hua landed, the area within a hundred meters was reduced to ruins under the shock of vein qi.
The twenty to thirty meter high city wall was instantly smashed into heaps of rubble, creating an apocalyptic scene.
The citizens fled in all directions upon hearing the noise; as Huan Cheng heard the commotion, he immediately led people over, but upon seeing the Divine Profound Realm in the ruins, his expression wasn’t pleasant.
Before he could react, however, the long blade formed of vein qi slashed down on the remaining section of the city wall.
Boom!
The blade fell.
Everything was turned to ruins.
