Time was of the essence, and the situation was critical.

Chen Feng disregarded all procedures and hurriedly called out to Li Yu, who was not far from the city gate, for help:

"Commander Li Yu! They are remnants of the Eternal Flame! They are wanted criminals in Zhongzhou! We absolutely cannot let them in! We beg Commander Li Yu to intervene!"

Seeing that Li Yu remained standing there expressionless, Chen Feng became truly anxious, his voice filled with pleading:

"Please, Commander Li Yu! I, Chen Feng, am begging you! If you don't act now, it will really be too late!"

The moment Chen Feng's plea ended, Li Yu finally moved.

The golden pupil in his left eye instantly shone brightly, and the threads connecting the members of the Eternal Flame Alliance appeared clearly before Li Yu's eyes.

At the same time, the Qi within his body swirls, and a powerful pressure suddenly erupts from Li Yu's body!

With an aura of absolute power overlooking all living beings, it descended from the sky with heavy rain, instantly enveloping the entire Great Wall area.

The crowd that had already rushed to the city gate suddenly stopped, as if they had been crushed by an invisible boulder, unable to move at all.

The refugees instantly came to their senses, their fierce expressions replaced by terror. Their bodies trembled violently under the immense pressure, and they could no longer hold their weapons, which fell to the ground with a clatter.

Some ordinary people even collapsed to the ground with their knees buckling.

The chaotic riot was abruptly frozen in time, and the sounds of fighting subsided.

Everyone was pressed firmly to the spot by the powerful aura, making it extremely difficult to even breathe.

They struggled to lift their heads and look at Li Yu, the source of the terrifying aura, their eyes filled with awe and a deep-seated fear.

Li Yu remained expressionless.

Raise your hand, and the arrow flies!

"Whoosh—!"

The burning arrow transformed into a streak of flame that instantly swept across the crowd.

The arrow seemed to possess consciousness, precisely bypassing the terrified refugees and the soldiers who were fighting back, darting swiftly through the crowd like a fish with eyes.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff!"……

The muffled sounds, like sharp blades piercing flesh, rang out one after another, so fast that it was impossible to keep up with the speed!

"ah--!"

Flame Claw's face was still frozen with extreme unwillingness. He only had time to let out half a desperate cry of pain before his heart was pierced through, and his body was engulfed in flames and turned to ashes, along with his ambition to rebuild Eternal Flame, completely dissipating.

Next came the remnants of the Eternal Flame Alliance behind him!

Whether they wanted to resist or escape, it was all meaningless in the face of that deadly stream of flame.

The arrows, like the Grim Reaper's call, pierced the hearts of every remnant of the Eternal Flame with pinpoint accuracy, sending up sprays of blood and bursts of flame!

In the blink of an eye, the remaining hundred or so members of the Eternal Flame Alliance were wiped out by this single arrow!

This hostile force, which had been entangled with Zhongzhou for a long time and caused countless obstacles, has finally come to a complete end.

After instantly annihilating the remnants of the Eternal Fire, the streak of light, undeterred, turned and charged back into the city gate passageway.

Just moments ago, Scarface Ironjaw had been looking disdainful and smug, but suddenly, sensing the impending death from behind, he turned around in horror.

"What?!"

The flames had already filled his vision...

"boom--!"

The arrow exploded with a loud bang.

Ironjaw and several of his core subordinates were instantly engulfed in flames, without even being able to utter a scream.

At the same time, a wave of heat pushed all the soldiers from Zhongzhou away.

The flames flashed, and the passageway was cleared.

All that remained were charred marks on the ground and a strange, burnt smell in the air.

Those who created chaos and led the charge against the city gates with their ferocity, along with the refugees who joined the attack immediately, all vanished without a trace in the flames, following in the footsteps of the remnants of the Eternal Fire.

As the dust settled, the golden light in Li Yu's left eye faded, and he dissipated his oppressive aura, as if the terrifying pressure that had enveloped the heavens and earth was merely an illusion.

Everyone regained their mobility, but the Great Wall remained silent.

The crowd that had been charging wildly behind them just moments before now seemed to have all their strength drained away, collapsing to the ground, only their heavy breathing and uncontrollable trembling remaining.

Many people were secretly relieved that they hadn't made it to the city gate, thus saving their lives.

At this moment, all the refugees looked at Li Yu with an indescribable awe.

"That's terrifying!"

"Is this the strength of the experts from Central Plains?"

"We actually tried to attack a place protected by such a being."

The crowd whispered amongst themselves, filled with fear.

Not only were ordinary refugees trembling with fear, but those awakened individuals who had been hiding among the crowd and harbored some ambitions, believing themselves to have some strength, were now deeply shocked by Li Yu's aura of divine might.

Faced with absolute power, they felt as insignificant as ants, and all their ambitions were crushed.

In stark contrast to the boundless fear of the refugees, the soldiers from Zhongzhou on and around the city walls displayed excitement and pride.

They were not surprised at all by the formidable strength Li Yu displayed, and even knew that Li Yu had not used his full strength.

What followed was a burst of enthusiastic cheers from the soldiers of Zhongzhou!

"Commander Li Yu! You're awesome!"

mighty!

mighty!

The soldiers' shouts were deafening, and their gazes toward Li Yu were filled with fervent worship and trust.

In their minds, it's only natural that Li Yu can create any miracle!

That's Li Yu, the hero of Zhongzhou!

Only now did Officer Chen Feng finally exhale the breath that had been stuck in his throat, his back already soaked with cold sweat.
