187: The Lord of Huangji City——Huang Yu!

The five assessment disciples followed the flow, all finishing their tasks and completing their promotion missions.

It didn't take Chen De and the others long to eliminate these law enforcement officers.

However, Chen De knew that Huangji City had a Xuan Saint guarding it.

After these law enforcement officers died, the other side would definitely receive news.

Chen De felt that the elders were willing to wait for Chen De and the others to take out those law enforcement officers, likely also because they were waiting for that Xuan Saint to arrive.

"How audacious! How dare you kill my people!"

Similar to the entrance of the law enforcement officers earlier, the voice arrived before the person.

Moreover, from the pressure, Chen De could tell that the arrival was not a Xuan Emperor, nor a Xuan Supreme, but a Xuan Saint.

Clever!

It wasn't like the novels from Chen De's previous life, where they came one by one, from bottom to top.

By the time the opponent's boss finally noticed, everything was already too late.

He was incredibly arrogant, and without even seeing his face, he immediately launched a powerful attack on everyone.

Unlike the minor characters before, this attack was at least from a strong practitioner at Void Union Realm sixth-stage or above.

Among the core disciples below, except for a few at the Void Union Realm level,

the rest couldn't withstand it.

However, how could the disciples protected by the Void Union Realm elders be in danger?

With a slight move, the elder neutralized all the pressure.

The Xuan Saint's figure also appeared in the arena.

When Chen De's Holy Mother Sect was rampant and benefiting the Xuanzhe Continent, many Xuan Supremes and Xuan Saints appeared.

During this process, Chen De also met some Xuan Saints.

This included the one Chen De was seeing now, the City Lord of Huangji City—Huang Que!

It was said that he was at Xuan Saint Realm seventh-stage, one of the strongest existences in the entire Xuanzhe Continent.

To encounter this person right away was truly... his luck was too bad.

Those who stand at the very top of the world are mostly a group of stubborn individuals and unstable factors.

Even if a few are willing to yield and submit, they are essentially ambitious schemers.

These people almost symbolize the backbone of a world and must be broken.

Facing them, even if the Qiu Xian Hall, a group dedicated to destruction, were willing to spare them,

when Shenwu Academy takes over, they would certainly not let them go.

Of course, the people of Qiu Xian Hall would still not let him go.

The stronger they are, the more resources they control; letting them go is impossible.

Huang Que looked at the few people below, wanting to discern their true strength.

However, he couldn't sense their realms.

Most of them were still understandable; although he couldn't sense their realms, their auras weren't particularly strong.

But, but that small portion...

Some had powerful auras, but were still manageable, yet some had auras that could already rival his.

Even more so, the auras of the few leaders were much, much stronger than his.

The unknown—this was a very dangerous thing.

This was also why, after those law enforcement officers were eliminated,

he didn't send a Xuan Emperor, nor a Xuan Supreme, but came in person.

Those who dared to act in his territory, and dared to kill his law enforcement officers,

and dared to do so knowing of his existence,

must be relying on something!

If he didn't come in person and continued to send his subordinates, they would most likely just be sacrificing their lives.

Coupled with the existence of the Holy Mother Sect, this period had indeed caused some panic among the people.

However, he didn't know until he came; once he arrived, he found these guys to be so troublesome.

When did so many unknown strong practitioners appear on the continent?

What on earth happened outside?

He might even end up dying here himself.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Huang Que immediately changed his demeanor.

With a face full of smiles, he looked at the people from Qiu Xian Hall, "Greetings, everyone!"

As he spoke, he even waved friendly at Chen De and the others.

"What are you still standing around for!

Come, come, come, you arrived without a word, I could have received you in advance!"

Looking at everyone, Huang Que was actually extremely nervous, muttering to himself.

He had already sent signals at an extremely fast speed to notify the other Xuan Saints.

Although their relationships weren't great, no one would want to see so many strong practitioners suddenly appear, right?

What he could do now was to stall them as much as possible until help arrived.

However, as for the cunning of the natives,

how could the people of Qiu Xian Hall, who had dealt with natives for years, not know?

Seeing this, Huang Que knew that this trip was inescapable, so he took a deep breath and laughed loudly,

"Hahaha, I, Huang Que, have swept across the world for many years, and today I will actually fall here!

So be it, so be it, it seems today, only a fight to the death!

My life, Huang Que, would rather be shattered jade than a whole tile.

To humble myself and seek peace is absolutely impossible, I just hope that after I, Huang Que, die, the people in this city can be spared.

That I, Huang Que, failed to protect them is my dereliction of duty!

Come on, let's fight!

Even if I die, I will die gloriously!"

Saying this, Huang Que gathered his strength, looking like he was ready to rush forward and fight to the death at any moment.

His face was flushed red, as if he had drunk fake alcohol.

The elders of Qiu Xian Hall said nothing, exchanged glances, and immediately made a decision.

So an elder at Void Union Realm eighth-stage stepped forward, "How could that be? We are here, in fact, just to make friends!"

Huang Que looked a bit disbelieving, "Make friends? If that's the case, why are you so..."

"Hahaha, a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. We are new here, and they were the ones who attacked us first, we were just forced to retaliate." the elder said a bit awkwardly.

Unexpectedly, Huang Que didn't doubt these words at all, "So that's how it is. Alas, those idiots, I've told them countless times to treat people kindly and equally...

This time, I don't blame you, it's them reaping what they sowed.

It also serves as a lesson for my other subordinates!

After all, we serve the common people, the common people don't serve us.

Let alone facing strong practitioners like you today, even if it were a mortal, treating people like that is wrong."

The elder said with some disbelief, "Oh, I didn't expect Your Excellency to be so righteous?"

Huang Que humbly replied, "Not at all! This is what I should do."

As he spoke, the two drew closer and shook hands friendly.

This action, of course, did not dispel the vigilance in Huang Que's heart.

After all, he was an old hand, not that naive.

However, this elder's purpose was not to launch a sneak attack on him.

The main purpose was to get close to him, just to prevent Huang Que from running too far away.

So, this elder shook his hand with one hand, and clenched his other hand into a fist, striking towards Huang Que.

But Huang Que had been guarding against this move all along, how could he be so easily fooled?

So he also extended his hand to block, attempting to stop this move.

However, Huang Que still overestimated himself.

This block clearly had no effect.

Huang Que caught the elder's fist, but he couldn't resist the force carried by the fist.

His blocking hand not only failed to advance an inch, but was pushed back, striking his chest.

This immediately caused Huang Que to spit out blood and fly a great distance.

But this was exactly what Huang Que wanted; in fact, he had long wanted to run away.

He had only been holding back due to fear of the opponent's superior numbers.

As for the people of Huangji City, he didn't care anymore.

If he died, what use were the people of Huangji City alive?

After all, their being alive was meaningful to him only if he was still alive.

And if he could survive, even if these people died,

he might not be unable to rebuild an Huangji City in his lifetime.

Before, the reason he chose to come instead of running immediately was because Huang Que knew that no one on the Xuanzhe Continent could pose a life threat to him.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, a group of existences beyond his comprehension appeared.

If he had known earlier, he would have run away long ago and would definitely not have come.

Once he escaped and gathered all the Xuan Saints of the continent, he would definitely make these people suffer.

So, after being sent flying a certain distance, his speed still didn't slow down.

On the contrary, at a certain distance, his speed suddenly accelerated.

Not only that, Huang Que also turned around, and his speed increased by a few more points.

He casually looked back at the people of Qiu Xian Hall, who were getting further and further away from him.

Fools, your grandpa is leaving first!

A great roc rises with the wind in a day, soaring ninety thousand li into the sky!

However, he found that those who attacked him showed no intention of pursuing him.

Not only him, but the others were also like this.

Especially those who gave him a strong sense of threat, they didn't even move.

At this moment...
