Followed by a deafening sound and quaking of the ground, a colourful screen of light appeared out of nowhere, surrounding theentire city ina dome.
These defensive Arrays were painstakingly created and arranged by the past City Lords and masters of major families living inMaplewood City, to guard against the foreign enemies. However, these defensive Arrays had never been activated.
Because Maplewood City hadn’t encountered any powerful enemy invasion so far. Even the cultivators, who had been living inMaplewood City for a long time, had almost forgotten about these defensive Arrays.
But today, all the Spirit Arrays were activated, one after another.
“What is going on? Why are these Spirit Arrays activated?”
“Something big must have happened. A foreign enemy wouldn't happen to be invading, right?”“Could an Emperor Realm master be attacking?”
For a while, many cultivators in the city were surprised and confused. Everyone broke into lively discussions. Some even lookedtoward the City Lord’s Mansion, wondering what the City Lord’s Mansion had to say about it.
At this moment, an anxious shout came from outside the city, “Everyone, quickly enter the city! No delays are allowed!”
This sentence was repeated over and over again. The speaker sounded anxious. Furthermore, the speaker seemed to haveimbued his energy into it. His voice was heard throughout Maplewood City.
“It's Vice City Lord Drunkard!”
After some cultivators recognized the owner of the voice, everyone was stunned. They immediately rushed to the city wall andlooked around. After a short while, the wall was jam-packed with cultivators.
The next moment, cries of surprise rang everywhere.
“Look, Sir Vice City Lord seems to be being chased by something!”“Wa-what the hell is that? It’s all black!”
“Even Sir Vice City Lord is not its opponent!?”
While everyone was clamouring, Drunkard had already arrived before Maplewood City. Seeing him arrive, the cultivatorresponsible for controlling the Spirit Array barrier immediately opened a gap in front of him. Drunkard’s figure immediately flewinside.
After he entered, the gap was quickly closed again. The barrier looked as good as before.
At the same time, the billowing black Qi that was hot on Drunkard’s tails had also reached the walls. It didn’t slow down andcrashed straight into the screen of light.
*Bang...*
A deafening crash instantly resounded across the city. The brightly glowing screen of light shook a little and dimmed all of asudden, almost shattering. This couldn’t escape from the eyes of the nearby cultivators. Everyone was scared, their faces turningpale as they backed away.
The cultivators maintaining the Array hurriedly mobilized their own energy, pouring more of their energy into the array. Finally,they somehow stabilized the trembling screen of light.
*Swish swish swish...*
Streaks of light immediately shot toward this side from every nook and corner of the city. Obviously, all the cultivators inMaplewood City had noticed the commotion here.
City Lord Duan Yuan Shan was first to appear. The moment he landed on the walls, he stared ahead with a serious look on hisface. The corner of his eyelids, twitching.
Several cultivators emanating the aura of Dao Source Realm appeared on either side of him, one by one. And after noticing whatwas happening before them, everyone’s face turned pale.
“City Lord Duan, what are these things?” One of the grey-haired old men asked.
This old man was a First-Order Dao Source Realm cultivator. He was none other than Qin Family’s Old Ancestor, Qin ZhaoYang! He was the oldest looking cultivator among the ten Dao Source Realm cultivators present here. He looked as if he didn’thave much time left; old age spots could be seen on his face.
This was extremely rare for a Dao Source Realm cultivator. Only those cultivators, whose lifespan was about to reach the limit,would show these signs.
“Yes, City Lord Duan, since you ordered the activation of the defensive Arrays in advance, you should have gotten some newsabout this, right?” Du Family’s Old Ancestor, Du Li Shen also asked.
Other Dao Source Realm masters of other families also looked to Duan Yuan Shan, hoping to get an explanation from him.
“Demon Qi! Pure Demon Qi of an Ancient Great Demon!” Duan Yuan Shan replied with a serious look on his face. “From what |know, it happened to have leaked 2 thousand kilometres away!”
“Ancient Great Demon’s pure Demon Qi!?” The crowd of Dao Source Realm masters’ expression drastically changed afterhearing this.
“This City Lord just got the news. Don’t ask me where this Demon Qi came from, this City Lord doesn’t have a clue. | only knowthat if we can’t work together, Maplewood City will be destroyed today!”
The crowd of Dao Source Realm masters looked shocked after hearing this.
Duan Yuan Shan looked around. “Everyone, you all are leaders of your respective families. Most of your clansmen are still insidethe city. | think you don’t want to see them infected by the Demon Qi and lose their sanity, do you?”
“Of course not!” Qin Zhao Yang was the first to express his position, “But how will we defend against it? | ask Sir City Lord toplease share!”
“Yeah! This is the first time we have encountered pure Demon Qi of an Ancient Great Demon. We don’t know what the best wayis to get rid of it,” Liang Peng Le of the Liang Family stated with a grim look hanging on his face.
“Well...” Duan Yuan Shan was rendered speechless for a while. Although he was a Second-Order Dao Source Realm masterand his cultivation was higher than the others, he was against the pure Demon Qi of an Ancient Great Demon. Just like everyoneelse, he was encountering it for the first time. How would he have any idea how to get rid of it effectively?
“Brother Duan, we might as well strengthen our defences first. We can slowly research it later!” Drunkard was showing no signsof being drunk. He was wide awake now.
“Exactly!” Duan Yuan Shan’s eyes lit up. He added, “Everyone, please take care of a section of the city wall and help othersdefend the Spirit Array. | will go look for someone, | might get some answers from him!”
While speaking, Duan Yuan Shan gave an eye signal to Drunkard. Drunkard immediately understood and summoned everyoneto come forward before they started studying.
After a while, the Dao Source Realm cultivators had settled on their section to defend before quickly dispersing.
Meanwhile, Drunkard’s expression momentarily changed as if he recalled something. He hurriedly flew toward the City Lord’sMansion.
The shocking thing happening outside the city had already reached the ears of many cultivators. The word got spread from oneto ten, then from ten to a hundred, and so on. Very soon, every cultivator in the entire Maplewood City knew about it. Some hot-blooded cultivators immediately obeyed the call and went to the city wall to assist in the defence.
In a flash, the walls of Maplewood City were jam-packed.
Meanwhile, Yang Kai and Mo Xiao Qi were back at the Spirit Pill Plaza. Yang Kai immediately spread his Divine Sense and knewthat Kang Si Ran and the members of the Spirit Pill Plaza were already ready. They had even boarded the ship.
He signalled Mo Xiao Qi before Mo Xiao Qi embarked the ship the next moment.Just when he was about to enter the ship, he suddenly looked toward a direction, immersed in his thoughts.
In that direction, an unremarkable middle-aged man among the crowd of onlookers was calmly gazing at Yang Kai. When theirgazes met, the middle-aged man smiled slightly. His smile appeared quite weird.
Yang Kai couldn't help but furrow his brow.novelbin
The middle-aged man was a complete stranger. He was sure that he had never seen this guy. However... to his surprise, thisman was a Third-Order Dao Source Realm cultivator. He found this a little unbelievable.
Masters of this level rarely appeared in Maplewood City. Apart from the Luan Feng’s appearance on Clear Jade Mountain lasttime, which had attracted countless powerful cultivators to investigate, the entire Maplewood City might not have a single Third-Order Dao Source Realm master pass by in a year.
But today, he found one in the crowd. And he seemed to be interested in Yang Kai, which puzzled him.
However, he didn’t give it much of a thought. Instead, he quickly embarked on the ship before controlling the ship to fly off.
After the ship left, the middle-agedman coldly smiled as he muttered tohimself in a voice that only he couldhear, “Wow, it’s really € 9ase 6? a8)wearing th@itb shoes in fruitlesssearch only to find it by coincidence.Who would have thought that afterfinding no clues after half a year, |would see the Young Palace Master'sship here! Since you obtained it, youshould know something!” Thecontent is on NovelDrama.Org! Readthe latest chapter there!
Surprisingly, this middle-aged man was the master sent by the Flying Saint Palace Master six months ago to investigate whomurdered Ning Yuan Cheng!
Following clues, he easily found out that the place where he was seen last time was the auction fair in Maplewood City. Sonaturally, he rushed all the way to Maplewood City.
However, he didn’t find any useful information even after investigating for six months.By some lucky coincidence, he managed to see Ning Yuan Cheng’s ship artifact in the city!
He didn't believe that Yang Kai hadthe ability to kill Ning Yuan Cheng.After all, Ning Yuan Chen was mguarded by a Secqrtd- Onter a0SBurbe Resim master, Liu Yi Zhi. Andin his opinion, Yang Kai simply didn'thave that kind of ability. But hebelieved that since Yang Kai couldget Ning Yuan Cheng's ship, hedefinitely knew something. Thecontent is on NovelDrama.Org!

Therefore, he was paying attention to Yang Kai.There were many eyes in the city. It was inconvenient for him to make a move here. He decided to follow him first.Yang Kai flew the ship to the city walls. But when he saw the situation outside, his heart immediately hit rock bottom!
Because at this moment, the boundless Ancient Demon Qi had already surrounded the entire Maplewood City, leaving not eventhe slightest bit of gap. Looking from high above, it looked as if the city walls of Maplewood City were built from pitch-blackmaterials.
The pitch-black city wall kept squirming and moving around several dozen kilometres around Maplewood City. Anyone whorushed into it would be in grave danger.
Even though the ship artifact’s grade wasn’t low and it also had some defensive barriers, if Yang Kai hastily rushed in, everyoneelse besides him would definitely be infected.
“Brother Yang...” Kang Si Ran had obviously noticed the situation. He immediately turned pale. “How did this happen?”
“Ah, it's too late!” Mo Xiao Qi nibbled her cherry red lips. She looked frustrated. At the same time, she was cursing Zhuang Panin her heart.
Had they not wasted so much time on Zhuang Pan, maybe they still had the chance to leave here before the Demon Qisurrounded the city. But now, it was too late.
Inside the ship, everyone turned their gazes to Yang Kai.At this point, Yang Kai’s cultivation was highest, and he had already become everyone’s pillar.Even though there was a grim look on Yang Kai’s face, he wasn’t in a panic.
Because even if he had nowhere to go, he could send everyone into the Small Sealed World and break through the blockade ofDemon Qi alone.
He was eighty percent confident that he could safely escape from it using Space Force.
But this way, he would be unable tohide his big secret, the Sealed WorldBead. The members of the ZRERGFamily Kes stitgoded etter all, theyrégardied Yang Kai as their saviour. IfYang Kai asked them to keep thematter about the Sealed World Beada secret, they would definitely swearan oath and keep a tight lid on it. Thecontent is on NovelDrama.Org!
