But he was just passing by here, and even if his guess was true, no one might be willing to believe him.
At this time, Yu Shengnan, who had always liked to "help", came to him and persuaded him: "Mr. Cao, since the two of us are just passing through the Lordless City, and this matter is not something we can do, To solve it, one more problem is worse than one less problem, so why don’t we rush to Tianlingyuan as soon as possible.”
"Wait until we successfully join Tianlingyuan and then tell Elder Wu about this matter. Maybe Elder Wu will have a better idea by then?"
What Yu Shengnan said does make sense. Since the two of them are so quiet, it would be better to tell the matter to Elder Wu, who has a high enough status. I believe that what the elder of the inner sect of Tianlingyuan said will be taken seriously enough.
So Cao Chuan immediately decided to rush to Tianlingyuan with Yu Shengnan as quickly as possible.
Not only to convey what happened here to Elder Wu, but also for his own safety.
However, plans can never keep up with changes.
Just when Cao Chuan and Yu Shengnan were packing their luggage and preparing to leave the Lordless City, they suddenly heard bursts of harsh gongs and drums outside the window.
The two people who immediately felt something bad hurried to the window to take a closer look. Then they heard a voice shouting, saying that an extremely ferocious beast tide suddenly appeared outside the Borderless City, so in order to protect the Borderless City and the residents in the city
, I hope all the monks can go to the north gate tower of the city to fight against the upcoming beast tide together.
"The beast tide? The beast tide in the depths of the desert just ended a few days ago. How come there is another beast tide so soon? And it is still outside the Lordless City?"
Looking at the monks rushing toward the north gate tower with swords and clubs, Cao Chuan looked solemn. He had actually thought that the sudden outbreak of the beast tide was caused by the traitor hiding in the Lordless City.
Taking advantage of the fact that more than half of the Borderlands monks were dead and wounded and the internal defense strength was empty, they took down the entire city in one fell swoop.
"If this is the case, then this beast tide is inevitable..." Although Cao Chuan wanted to escape from the city, he finally put down his luggage and took Yu Shengnan to join the rush.
The procession heading to the north gate tower of the city.
When they arrived at the north gate of the city, a shadow suddenly flashed in the Babel Tower behind them.
Immediately, the team of monks on the gate tower suddenly burst into cheers.
Looking up, it turned out that the city lord in charge of the Lordless City and the eight elders and deacons had all appeared.
"I didn't expect that this tide of beasts would even alert the city lord. It seems that this tide of beasts is really coming from a bad person!"
"You're right. The beast tide suddenly appeared this time, so we must be busy."
Some people lamented that the city lord and the eight elders and deacons who were flying in the air still maintained their grace, while others secretly cursed the traitor who stabbed them in the back deep in the desert.
"If that hateful traitor hadn't cooperated with the beast tide to kill so many of our brothers, how could those monster beasts dare to directly invade my Lordless City!"
"The traitor is really hateful! If I catch him, I will make him suffer all the tortures in the world and make him unable to survive or die!"
Cao Chuan followed everyone's gaze and looked ahead.
I saw that the Lord of the Lordless City was already a pale old man. Even though he was wearing a clean gray robe and his figure was as tall and proud as a young man, he was still no match for the look in his eyes.
Pervasive turbidity.
The same was true for the eight elders and deacons standing beside the city lord.
But it was precisely after seeing the appearance of the city lord and the eight elders and deacons that Cao Chuan thought of another terrifying possibility.
He quickly pulled Yu Shengnan to the corner, and then whispered: "I think I should know the purpose of those who betrayed the monks in the depths of the desert. Look at the Lord of the Lordless City, things have begun to appear in his eyes.
Death Qi, if some powerful monsters appear today, he will definitely fall in the battle, and the traitor will definitely succeed as the city lord."
"Mr. Cao, do you mean that the traitor chose to betray in order to take the position of city lord?" Yu Shengnan was startled and his expression became nervous.
"Of course it's more than that." Cao Chuan shook his head and continued: "Although the Lordless City does not have much contact with the Nanli Dynasty or other sect forces, it has been generally recognized by the Southern Emperor Territory, so this
It must be difficult for a city to be captured in a short period of time, so other methods need to be used to disintegrate the town from within."
"And if you want to dismantle the Lordless City from within, the only way is to become the Lord of the Lordless City."
"Then we have to tell the city lord about this, do you know?" The more he listened to Cao Chuan's words, the more worried Yu Shengnan became.
She was afraid that she would be buried here together with Cao Chuan.
But Cao Chuan still shook his head, then patted her shoulder and said: "Since the traitor knew that he might have a chance to become the city lord, he would definitely hide himself very well, so the probability of us finding him is very small.
"What we have to do is to be prepared."
"Be prepared?"
"That's right." After handing the inner court disciple token that Elder Wu had given to him to Yu Shengnan, Cao Chuan continued: "If things develop beyond our expectations, you should rush to Heaven as quickly as possible.
Spiritual Academy, hand the token to Elder Wu and ask him to come to Lordless City to help."
"But···"
"No more words!"
Cao Chuan, who rarely looked serious in front of Yu Shengnan, interrupted Yu Shengnan who was about to say something, and then pulled her back to the group of monks in front of the gate tower.
Seeing that Cao Chuan didn't want to say more, he knew that the other party had made up his mind. Yu Shengnan stopped mentioning it. Instead, he looked around and found that many monks with similar realms to them had gathered here.
However, the number of monks whose cultivation realm is above Condensation Realm is very small.
This made both of them feel very strange.
It wasn't until a formation that could encompass the entire Lordless City suddenly rose that the two of them suddenly realized who was behind the scenes.
Cao Chuan raised his head with everyone to look at the Lord of the Lordless City who was walking in the air. Cao Chuan looked indifferent.
He also felt very surprised, and even a second ago he was wondering why it ended like this.
At this time, the Lord of the Lordless City suddenly said: "I'm sorry everyone, my lifespan is running out, but I have tried my best to break through the shackles and make myself further, so I can only ask you to help me with this
Being busy allows me to live a little longer."
"The formation that covers the sky and the sun, rise!"
As soon as the words fell, the boundless black curtain suddenly rose up, covering the entire Lordless City in an instant.
