Those waiting outside the city were stunned. They had thought that the Crimson Blood Army would need a bloody battle to regain control of the South City after sealing it off, but they hadn't expected that it would be so easily defeated by a group of people inside. Moreover, judging from their tone, they were also members of the Oath.
"Isn't the Oath supposed to only have one squad? Why are there reserves?!"
A powerful figure was utterly speechless, his words laced with shock and lingering fear.
"Look at their equipment, it's completely different from ordinary gunpowder weapons, it must be a new technology that emerged after the cataclysm!"
"No wonder it's so powerful, but this is too strange. I've never heard of such a weapon appearing in the South City!"
"You're not very knowledgeable. This weapon has been produced before, but in very small quantities!"
A group of people were talking about the procession in front of them.
"Master, your disciple is late in protecting you!"
After the oath was taken, a man and a woman emerged from the reserve. They were Shi Xuyao and Lin Man, and the weapons in the reserve's hands were also made by the two of them.
"Let's go back first!"
Although Jiang Yuan's eyes were open, he had lost ninety percent of his senses. The Mountain Lord's power was too deadly, as if he were slowly entering a dark space, destined to sink forever.
He was simply holding on. He knew that if he collapsed now, the oath would face the covetousness of countless forces, and no matter how strong Ning Yanlan and the others were, they couldn't fight against so many opponents.
"Jiang Yuan!" Liu Zhaodi suddenly ran out.
Jiang Yuan heard it, but he turned and left coldly as if he hadn't heard it.
"Let's go back to the oath!" Little Fatty was overjoyed. This was the moment when Brother Yuan would make a name for himself, and also the moment when he could finally hold his head high.
Of the group, only Ning Yanlan noticed Jiang Yuan's unusual behavior, but she also understood his intentions, so she could only suppress her pity and follow behind him.
"Tsk tsk, who would have thought that the kid who was chased out of the South City like a dog back then would become so powerful now!" one of the camp members exclaimed with deep emotion.
Upon hearing this, everyone recalled the battle from back then. In the struggle for the unique cultivation technique, a considerable number of people attacked Jiang Yuan. On that occasion, Jiang Yuan was in an extremely sorry state, and even after obtaining the unique cultivation technique, he disappeared without a trace for several weeks. Now, his reappearance is so terrifying.
"That's right, it seems the only difference between me and a strong person is a powerful cultivation technique!"
"Get lost! He looks like he's been through a lot. Do you really think a martial arts manual can change a person's life?"
"Yes, yes, anyone can have opportunities, but an indomitable will is what matters. You didn't see the ruthlessness he showed. Have you ever seen anyone in the entire South City dare to play like this? This is a life-or-death gamble!"
"Ya'er, let's go back to the Northern Alliance first!" The alliance elder was much happier to see that Shangguan Ya was safe and sound.
"Elder, I would like to request permission to leave the team for one day!"
Before Shangguan Ya could speak, Yu Tu stood in front of the elder of the alliance, looking anxious and uncertain.
"You? You're going to see him!"
The old man was indeed wise and experienced; he immediately noticed that Yu Tu's gaze towards the apostle was strange.
Yu Tu remained silent. She no longer had the courage to face her own feelings, especially when Ning Yanlan was still around. She felt like a thief, stealing something that didn't belong to her.
“Alright, I’ve heard about what happened to him. This time, our Northern City Alliance really should thank him!” The elder nodded, his gaze softening as he removed the ring from his hand and handed it to Yu Tu, saying, “This is the Northern City Alliance’s expression of gratitude to him. Please go and visit him on our behalf!”
"Thank you, Elder!" Yu Tu gripped the ring tightly.
Go!
The rabbit gave chase, a scene witnessed by Liu Hongyuan and his daughter Liu Zhaodi.
"Daughter, what are you thinking about?" Liu Hongyuan noticed that Liu Zhaodi's mood was not right.
"He still seems to be ignoring me!" Liu Zhaodi had been trying to comfort herself since their last parting, telling herself that Jiang Yuan still liked her, but he just wasn't good at expressing it. But seeing him today, it was clear that her self-comfort was unnecessary.
“Sometimes, you have to fight for love! Besides, you’ve given so much behind his back, even if he’s blind, he can still feel your affection!” Liu Hongyuan said meaningfully.
"But he..."
“Daughter, you must understand that you need to use the right method for the right person! Take Jiang Yuan for example, you should show your value to him, instead of just becoming his appendage. You should know that love is, to some extent, a mutual support. You can gradually enter his heart by providing material assistance and become his emotional support!” Liu Hongyuan said a lot of meaningful words.
"Father, I understand. Then I'll go back now!"
...
On the other side, Jiang Yuan led his men back to the base, and the moment he entered, he collapsed.
At this moment, he had lost all his senses; his soul and body were like being trapped in a dark room of permanent exile, from which he could no longer escape.
"Jiang Yuan, don't...scare...me!"
"Brother Yuan..."
"..."
All the sounds gradually faded into the distance, until they finally disappeared completely from Jiang Yuan's world.
This is demigod-level power, a destructive force that transcends the current rules, demonstrating just how determined the Mountain Lord is to kill Jiang Yuan.
Unfortunately, the mountain lord miscalculated one thing: Jiang Yuan possessed a demigod body. Although the power of a sub-god would severely injure Jiang Yuan, the demigod body could still absorb the power of a sub-god, albeit the process was extremely slow.
Despite the decline of consciousness, the world still had to keep turning even without Jiang Yuan, and the development of the Oath Forces continued in an orderly manner.
These past two days, Shi Xuyao and Lin Man returned to Yanshan Village because the time for the weapon-forging assessment at the weapon-forging grounds had come to an end, and they had to leave. They hadn't felt very confident before, but seeing their master return filled them with inexplicable strength.
