At this moment, in the Twelve Cities Alliance camp.
A burly middle-aged man wearing a mink coat strode into the large tent where Bai Yiyi and the others were.
This man is named Wang An, and he is the deputy city lord of Tianyu City.
He was responsible for managing and organizing the martial artists within the city on a regular basis.
His gaze fell on Bai Yiyi's face.
After their eyes met.
Bai Yiyi said disdainfully, "What are you looking at? If you've got the guts, let me go and we'll fight one-on-one!"
Both of them are Celestial Martial Emperors, but Bai Yiyi has a deeper foundation and is favored by the Heavenly Dao, so her combat power and potential are stronger than Wang An's.
Upon hearing this, Wang An snorted coldly.
"Just you wait, the city lord and the others will be back soon. That bastard named Lin Jinglong is probably already dead at the hands of our city lord!"
"You're dreaming!"
Bai Yiyi's attitude towards Lin Jinglong had changed from initial hostility to admiration, especially after Lin Jinglong broke the Immortal Soul Devouring Formation alone that night, she was truly convinced of Lin Jinglong's abilities.
What happened today is a disgrace to her.
She was determined to go back and help Lin Jinglong. She felt that if Lin Jinglong really died at the hands of the Twelve Cities Alliance because of the Heavenly Dao Supreme Alliance's dereliction of duty, then she would really have no reason to live.
Just as Wang An and Bai Yiyi were facing off, a sudden roar came from the sky.
Wang An was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy.
"The city lord must have returned!"
Just then, countless whooshing sounds rang out in the air. As Wang An lifted the curtain and stepped out, he saw a streak of light rapidly falling from the sky.
"Bang!"
A figure was thrown into the snow in front of him.
"City Lord!"
When Wang An saw Wang Lixue in such a miserable state, he was dumbfounded. In his eyes, Wang Lixue was almost invincible, but this time she was seriously injured and was thrown to the ground like a dead dog.
Tantai Yu's figure gracefully descended.
She clapped her hands and stepped on Wang Lixue.
Her gaze fell on Wang An's face, then passed over his figure and looked towards Bai Yiyi and the others in the large tent behind them.
"You're all still alive, you're lucky."
Tantai Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Neither she nor the other members of the Elders Council actually wanted Lin Jinglong to completely break ties with the Twelve Cities Alliance, but there was a prerequisite: that Lin Jinglong's subordinates were still alive.
Otherwise, revenge is an inevitable outcome.
Bai Yiyi vaguely saw Tantai Yu's figure inside the tent, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, he had come looking for her.
However, she began to feel anxious again.
Why is it Tantai Yu who came? Could something have really happened to Lin Jinglong?
"Release our city lord!"
Wang An was furious.
The entire camp was alerted, and hundreds of martial artists rushed out from different directions, eyeing Tantai Yu and the martial artists she brought with them.
Just as Wang An was about to make his move,
Another figure crashed to the ground.
Lin Jinglong kicked Wang An away, blasting the tent behind him to pieces. He then used the scattered energy in the air to cut the special ropes binding Bai Yiyi and the others.
The group of Martial Emperors from the Heavenly Dao Supreme Alliance were finally freed. When they rushed out, they all looked at Lin Jinglong with shame.
"Alliance Leader, we have disgraced you."
"Good to know."
Lin Jinglong didn't offer any comfort, and simply said...
Bai Yiyi lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
They've never been so shameful in their lives. As Lin Jinglong's subordinates, they not only failed to help him, but also dragged him down.
At this point, even die-hards like Chen Tianyi, who were originally from the Supreme Pavilion, and who had been controlled by Lin Jinglong using his divine soul secret technique, all looked ashamed.
After all, this was truly an embarrassing incident.
After Lin Jinglong rescued these people, Wang Lixue, who was on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood and glared angrily at Lin Jinglong.
"They actually managed to rescue the hostages just like that?"
"Heh, do your men even have the right to stand against me?"
Lin Jinglong looked at her with disdain.
Did they think they could influence him by using these hostages?
Afterwards, thousands of warriors from the Twelve Cities Alliance gathered around the camp.
Wang An struggled to get up from the ground. He saw a horrifying scene: not only had all the hostages they had captured been rescued, but the city lords of their respective factions had also become Lin Jinglong's prisoners!
His face gradually turned pale as he stared at Lin Jinglong in disbelief.
"Could it be that the city lord and the others fell into an ambush by the Ten Clans of Heaven? With so many people, surely Lin Jinglong captured them all by himself?"
He fell into deep thought.
Meanwhile, representatives from the other forces in the twelve cities gathered behind Wang An. Someone whispered, "What should we do next? Our city lord has been captured by him!"
"Shall we give it our all? They only brought less than a hundred people this time!"
"If we fight them to the death, we might have a chance to save the city lord!"
The entire Twelve Cities Alliance has only eight Supreme Dao Integration level beings, all of whom have been seriously injured by Lin Jinglong. The remaining martial artists combined are not enough to defeat him alone.
Lin Jinglong naturally didn't take them seriously.
Their desperate attempt to fight to the death is nothing but a joke.
"Lin Jinglong, release them! This is the territory of our Twelve Cities Alliance. If you don't release our city lord, we will risk our lives to bring him back!"
Thousands of people gathered around.
