Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Displaying Prestige in Front of Others, Divine Majesty Suppressing the World!

RUMBLE—

Outside Qianling City, dust and sand swirled like a tornado! The ground quaked and the city walls groaned. On the city walls, many of the spear-wielding soldiers were trembling.

The distant beast tide was terrifying. It was like a flood sweeping over the land, drowning everything in its path! Anything that stood in its way was crushed to dust in an instant. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Damn it, almost all the King Level Element Beasts are here! Which bastard did this?!" Qian Wanyi’s face turned green as he cursed from the wall.

Beside him, the little fatty immediately pointed to Sun Yuhu, who had been hauled onto the wall. "Dad, it’s him! This guy has a Heart-Devouring Gu. The Element Beasts went berserk not long after he provoked the Gu mother!"

"The Sun Family? I’ve fled all the way here, and you still won’t let me go, is that it?! Fine! If I survive this, I’ll fight your Sun Family to the death!"

Sun Yuhu’s face went pale. "You’ve got the wrong person," he argued. "I’m not..."

"Enough! Your father is Sun Bingkun, right? Don’t deny it. A sworn brother of Sun Bingkun’s and I look about seventy percent alike. There’s no way I’d misidentify you!"

Qian Wanyi’s words instantly drew the attention of the tense crowd to Sun Yuhu.

Ning Xuan blinked. That statement holds a lot of information!

Sun Yuhu’s face turned green as he roared, "Nonsense! My father doesn’t have any sworn brothers!"

Qian Wanyi remained expressionless. "Then perhaps I was mistaken."

Only then did Sun Yuhu realize he had been had. He immediately turned on Ning Xuan. "It’s all his fault! I planted a Heart-Devouring Gu insect in him. He must have grafted it onto an Element Beast, and that’s what triggered the beast tide!"

Ning Xuan said nothing.

Seeing the Element Beasts draw nearer, Qian Wanyi instructed his men, "The moment an Element Beast crosses the moat, throw those two down!"

"Qian Wanyi, do you really intend to make enemies of both the Kong and Sun families?!" Kong Fusheng interjected forcefully. He knew Qian Wanyi had recognized him. "If we die here, the Qian Family will surely abandon you just like they did before! You’d better think this through!"

Qian Wanyi’s face was impassive. "What does your death in a beast tide have to do with me?"

Sun Yuhu’s face turned white, but Kong Fusheng remained calm, even sneering.

"Hahaha, you can’t silence the masses! Right now, these people eat your food and follow your orders. But when the experts from our two great families arrive and they’re forced to make a choice between life and death, do you really think they’ll still stand with you?!"

ROAR!

Before Qian Wanyi could answer, the giant ape had already reached the edge of the moat, just over a hundred feet away, and let out a furious roar. The river water churned violently as a Gang Wind swept across the walls. Some soldiers with weaker cultivation began spitting up blood, and a few even plunged headlong from the ramparts.

"City Lord, our men are no match for them! Let them retreat!" someone immediately suggested.

"Release my prohibitions! I’m willing to fight!" Kong Fusheng suddenly declared.

Sun Yuhu quickly followed suit. "Me too! My archery is decent. I can provide ranged support!"

Qian Wanyi nodded. With so many powerful experts present, he was not afraid the two would turn on him.

Unexpectedly, the moment their prohibitions were released, both men struck simultaneously, aiming for the drawbridge chains! It was too late to stop them.

"Bastards!" someone roared in fury, striking at the pair.

SPURT!

In a spray of blood, the two were quickly subdued.

BOOM!

Outside the city gate, the drawbridge slammed down hard.

"Kill!" Qian Wanyi roared, leading the charge down from the wall.

"Archers, fire!" Qian Duoduo shouted from the wall, raising his precious sword high before swinging it down decisively.

A volley of arrows rained down. However, they were useless against the King Level Element Beasts outside. In fact, the barrage only served to enrage them further. Amid the earth-shaking roars, more and more soldiers lost their ability to fight.

Below the city wall, several King Realm experts were also unable to hold back the army of King Level Element Beasts and were being steadily pushed back. More and more Element Beasts crossed the river, making the situation dire.

"City Lord Qian, attack the giant ape!" Ning Xuan called out from the wall.

The giant ape, which had just fought a fierce battle with Ning Xuan, now stood beyond the moat, watching coldly. Hearing Ning Xuan, it shot him a cold glance.

A chill ran down Ning Xuan’s spine. He suddenly realized the creature had not been using its full strength before.

Son of a bitch!

"It’s no use! This demon ape was bound by internal shackles, but it has broken free of all of them! We’re no match for it! Since Duoduo is willing to treat you as a friend, I need to ask a favor. Take him and evacuate the city’s residents! He knows the way!" Qian Wanyi’s urgent telepathic message suddenly rang in Ning Xuan’s ears.

Ning Xuan’s heart sank.

Across the battlefield, the giant ape suddenly pointed at Ning Xuan and made a throat-slitting gesture.

Ning Xuan ignored it and urgently asked, "Sun Yuhu, if you crush the Gu mother, will the demon ape die too?"

"I... I don’t know," Sun Yuhu stammered. The demon ape had merely glanced at him, but it sent a shiver through his very soul.

"Give it to me!" Ning Xuan snatched his Storage Ring, found the Gu mother, and was about to crush it when he keenly noticed a flicker of longing in the demon ape’s eyes.

Damn it, don’t tell me the shackles on its body were broken because of the Gu insect?! At this thought, Ning Xuan put the Gu mother away. If that were true, he would have personally unleashed a true devil!

"What are you waiting for?!" Qian Wanyi’s urging voice rang in his ears again.

Ning Xuan looked down and saw that the few King Realm experts had already been pushed back almost to the city gate. The ground before them was soaked in blood where several King Realm experts had been torn to shreds by the Element Beasts!

"This city is doomed! Let us go, and the Kong and Sun families will be sure to reward you generously!" Kong Fusheng tried to persuade the guards.

"This city will not fall!" Ning Xuan suddenly declared, leaping from the wall as his words faded.

"Brother Ning, come back!" Qian Duoduo’s face paled, and everyone else stared, stunned.

"What are you doing down here?!" Qian Wanyi demanded, his presence undiminished despite the three bleeding claw marks on his left chest. As he spoke, he took a step to the side, positioning himself in front of Ning Xuan.

"I can handle them," Ning Xuan said simply. As he spoke, his body erupted with an overwhelming divine might.

The previously bloodthirsty and ferocious Element Beasts instantly ceased their attacks, their eyes filled with dread.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Under the stunned gazes of all, Ning Xuan stepped forward. With each step, his divine might grew stronger.

ROAR!

The demon ape across from him let out a furious roar. Ning Xuan’s body trembled, and blood streamed from his seven orifices. The ferocious glint returned to the eyes of the Element Beasts that had just begun to retreat.

"You monkey, even if your surname is Sun, you won’t escape my Five Finger Mountain today," Ning Xuan said, pointing at the demon ape with a contemptuous smirk.

Then, with a BOOM, a massive Qilin phantom erupted from Ning Xuan’s body.

Its resplendent divine might overawed heaven and earth!

Hundreds upon hundreds of King Level Element Beasts fell prostrate on the ground, shivering uncontrollably.

On the city wall, Qian Duoduo’s eyes widened as he murmured, "My god... Brother Ning really does have an ancient divine beast inside him!"

The others stared at Ning Xuan as if they were looking at a god or a demon.

Yet the demon ape across from them still refused to submit. Its body, which had been forced to the ground, slowly rose until it was standing upright like a man. As it gazed at the Qilin phantom in the sky, red flames danced within its eyes.

And those flames were only growing more intense.
