The woman rushed forward, crying and shouting, regardless of the sticky blood on her body.
Haven't seen you for five years.
She thought the other person was dead, but when she saw him again today, she was filled with mixed emotions.
The former city lord opened his bloodshot eyes and murmured.
"Qian Qing...kill me...stop torturing me."
"Husband! It's me! Xiaoyu and I! Your daughter, your wife!"
Lin Yun couldn't bear to watch any longer, and he knew how tortured he was, so he just wanted to die.
He glanced at the badge of the commander of the defense army and said:
"Liu Chun, come out with me."
The defense commander named Liu Chun hurriedly chased after him.
His life was saved by Lin Yun, and now he obeys the young man's orders.
The two walked out of the dungeon.
I always feel that such bloody places will affect my sanity.
This is enough to show how many people Qian Qing has killed.
How many times were those people tortured before they died!
Lin Yun let out a long breath, and the blood and energy in his soul were stirred up like a surging tide.
It took a lot of effort to press it down.
"Senior, what do you need me to do?"
"I want to know the specific situation of Dongchao. Why do you say there seems to be something strange outside the city?"
Hearing this, Liu Chun sighed and spoke slowly.
It turns out that not only Shashi City is full of wind and sand, but the entire Dongchao is a desert like this.
I heard that the Eastern Dynasty was not like this before, but one day, as if it was a punishment from God, the whole place where it was spring all year round became like this.
At first, the entire Eastern Dynasty had gradually become accustomed to this harsh environment, but the divine punishment did not seem to stop.
Various monsters appeared everywhere outside the city, and each monster was extremely powerful.
They lurk between every city, as if they are driven by someone, never attacking the city, but only swallowing up passers-by.
From then on, no one dared to leave the city, and communication between towns was completely cut off.
Lin Yun asked with a frown.
"Didn't your Donghuang send anyone to resolve this matter?"
Liu Chun shrugged.
"Of course we sent people, but the Eastern Dynasty isn't as powerful as other nations. Those warriors are no match for the monsters. If we send them out, they'll all be wiped out."
Lin Yun finally understood everything.
This monster that cannot attack the city is equivalent to a different kind of protection mechanism of the Eastern Dynasty.
Others dare not get involved in Dongchao, not just because of the harsh environment here.
Even though the environment is very harsh, as long as there are population resources and land resources, it is still possible to become a giant.
The main reason is that there are monsters everywhere here, and other people don’t have the ability to eliminate all of them.
This also created the illusion of peace within the Eastern Dynasty.
Liu Chun looked at the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion and said softly:
"It is precisely because of this that our former city lord was replaced by someone else. This unlawful replacement was not captured by the people from the imperial capital because there was no information exchange between the various cities."
Lin Yun nodded slightly.
No wonder the mother and daughter were willing to risk their lives to return home even though they knew they would be discovered by their enemies if they returned to Shashi City.
It’s because of the outside environment.
It is not easy for two women to survive in the desert for five years.
The harder their lives are, the more damnable Qian Chun is!
Lin Yun looked at him again.
"Why didn't I see a single monster when I entered the Eastern Dynasty? Could it be that this monster also knows not to cross the city?"
"Senior, this is due to the unique geographical environment of Shashi City. This city faces the Wu Dynasty. Those monsters never appear in front of other countries, but roam in the Eastern Dynasty."
It seems that this monster also has intelligence!
Lin Yun came up with a bold idea.
Liu Chun asked cautiously:
"Senior, are you going to continue your journey into the interior of the Eastern Dynasty?"
That must be the case.
If you want to reach the secret realm, you must keep on going!
The day for the secret realm to open is getting closer and closer. If we delay any further, if something unexpected happens in the middle, we may not be able to catch up with the opening time of the secret realm.
"Senior, you must think carefully. After leaving the city, there are many monsters behind. It is very dangerous."
"I keep hearing you talk about monsters, monsters. So what does this monster look like?"
Just like demon beasts, even monsters should have a specific form, right?
They can't all be the soul-stitched monsters created by the Blood Bat King, right?
"This... I've seen it from afar before. The monster behind Sandstone City is a thousand feet deep, lurking underground. Once someone appears, they'll emerge and devour them. As for the other monsters, I only know about them from books."
"All we know is that they don't have a specific body shape. Most of them have different shapes and sizes, and they grow in all kinds of shapes."
Liu Chun’s answer would be worse than no answer at all.
It seems that this native Dongchao person has no idea what is going on.
You still need to go out and see for yourself.
At this moment, the couple also came out.
The former city lord was still covered in blood, but his face had obviously been washed.
Lin Yun took out a Huihuan Pill and threw it to him.
The latter looked at him gratefully, and after swallowing it, the wounds on his body began to heal slowly.
Although these wounds were very hideous, they were not fatal.
It’s just because he’s been injured so much that the root of the disease will definitely remain.
