In fact, he found it hard to trust Xuan Yi, who managed to become an apothecary at such a young age.
No matter how hard they tried to understand, Xuan Yi was indeed forging pills. It was true that he was an apothecary.
An apothecary could only befriend him instead of offending him. He had to fulfill his promise.
Otherwise, the consequences would be something that Water City could not bear.
At the same time, the old man was rejoicing in his heart. Previously, he did not speak ill of him and chose to believe him. Although they were not on good terms now, at least they would not become enemies.
Now, it seemed that he was not just an alchemist. His attainments in the Dao of alchemy were absolutely amazing!
“The spiritual materials have been searched!”
An attendant stepped forward and cupped his fists to report. He looked at Xuan Yi with fiery eyes. To be able to serve such a peerless figure was undoubtedly a privilege.
The elder smiled and took the mystical material as he handed it over.
“Master, please accept it.”
After Xuan Yi took it, he glanced at it before nodding.
At this moment, a terrifying aura suddenly came from the horizon!
“City Lord, the desolate Beast Army outside the city is closing in!”
“What?”
Sensing the desolate beast aura outside the city, everyone’s faces turned pale. The Joy that had just risen did not last long before it was filled with fear.
“Is the heavens trying to destroy our water city?”
Although they were afraid of the desolate beasts attacking the city, they were not panicking. After all, they had experience in handling it.
Every time a desolate beast attacked the city, City Lord Xia Wu would turn the tide. He would always have a way to chase them away.
It was said that the city lord was one of the rare early stage mountain moving realm experts in the world. That was why more and more people gathered in Water City and it was flourishing.
However, the early-stage mountain moving realm could not be compared to the mid-stage mountain moving realm no matter what.
Although everyone did not understand the situation, there was no need to say more about the mid-stage and early-stage mountain moving realm experts.
Clad in armor and his expression was cold, Xia Wu’s figure was revealed above the city walls.
He raised his long sword high up and under the sunlight, it reflected a shocking cold light. His body was emitting a soaring battle intent.
“Citizens of Water City, life and death is in front of you. Raise your weapons. The desolate beasts will not let you off just because you put down your weapons!”
“As for me, Xia Wu, as the city lord of Water City, I promise that even if I die in Water City, I will not abandon you!”
“In front of the desolate beasts, we have no choice!”
His voice was filled with spirit qi and it shook the entire Water City, producing an even greater response.
“Fight! Fight! Fight!”
At most, a man would die. He was not afraid of the terror of life and death, so what was there to be afraid of?
They were just desolate beasts. If he killed them and ate their flesh, even if he could not kill them, he would still have to bite off a piece of meat from this group of beasts before he died.
It was not a loss!
The entire Water City was filled with a fiery atmosphere. At this moment, the hearts of the people gathered into one point, and their battle intent instantly reached its peak!
“I’ll go!”
Nodding in satisfaction, Xia Wu even jumped down from the city wall. At this moment, he was like an iron arrow, and under everyone’s exclamations and gazes, he fiercely stabbed into the desolate beast horde.
As he roared angrily, the desolate beasts around him immediately opened up a path for him.
Xia Wu’s eyes were fierce. He infused his spirit qi, and his sword flashed. A sword strike was enough to cut through mountains and rocks, directly slashing towards the desolate beast.
The desolate beast did not move. Its eyes were filled with ridicule as it allowed Xia Wu to attack it. It was completely unharmed by Xia Wu’s sharp sword.
Xia Wu thus withdrew his sword. His palm was numb, and his heart was sinking.
He had just recovered from his serious injuries. All these years, his strength was barely at the mountain moving realm. Against this desolate beast, it was like a mortal meeting a towering mountain. He had no way to attack.
Although Xia Wu extended his hand to block, he was still sent flying by the desolate beast. He had the heart but was powerless. He could not block it and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The entire water city was dead silent.
“It’s over!”
In Water City, there were a few people dressed luxuriously. Their eyes were filled with panic as they sighed anxiously.
They came from the dynasty and were originally traveling. After experiencing water city, they were moved by the scenery of water city. At the same time, they had the thought of staying for a few days.
However, they did not expect that in just a few days, the desolate beasts had surrounded the city.
Furthermore, they had sent out a mountain moving realm desolate beast!
Although they had just come to water city, everyone was very clear about the situation in such a small city. The strongest person was only at the early stage of the mountain moving realm, which was already considered impressive.
Wouldn’t this be courting death against a desolate beast at the middle stage of the mountain moving realm?
The few of them wanted to escape, but their surroundings were already surrounded by desolate beasts. It was difficult for them to escape.
Previously, when the citizens of water city were united, their eyes lit up. They still had a glimmer of hope, but now, it seemed that this glimmer of hope was impossible to achieve.
Mid-stage mountain lifting realm desolate beasts were rare. Their bodies were like steel, extremely powerful.
In their opinion, only their elders and masters could kill them.
No one in water city could do it.
From the looks of it, that was indeed the case.
The City Lord suffered another tail attack from the desolate beast. His eyes were filled with despair. In the next instant, he threw his sword out with all his might. At the same time, his body flashed, and with the help of the desolate beast’s pushing force, he quickly returned to the city.
He must defend the city!
At this point, he could only rely on water city’s defense to barely defend it.
The desolate beast was neither too fast nor too slow. Once, twice, under everyone’s shocked gazes, it continuously bombarded the city gates.
Across the city, everyone’s heart had fallen into an ice hole. They became ice-cold as they continued to sink.
The city gates that they used to be proud of seemed to be unable to withstand it!
A few breaths later, there was a soft sound from the city gates. However, it was like a bolt of lightning that struck the hearts of everyone in water city.
“The city is about to be destroyed!”
Everyone there revealed looks of despair. It was not easy for them to raise their morale. Under such a powerful force, the weak city was like a piece of thin paper that could easily be torn off.
In the current world, just such a desolate beast was enough to crush all of them.
Furthermore, there were countless desolate beasts behind it! !
Following a loud rumbling sound, the city gate turned into fragments and exploded!
The desolate beast roared angrily. In front of it, a few smaller desolate beasts charged forward and were about to pounce into the city to have a good meal.
“Heh!”
Everyone was in a daze as they vaguely heard the voice of a young girl.
Looking over, it was indeed a girl. She was about seven or eight years old and was carved from Jade. At this moment, she was standing at the city gate, blocking all the desolate beasts alone.
Everyone turned pale with fright. Could it be that they were just going to watch a cute little girl die tragically under the desolate beasts?
Some people even put their palms together and knelt down to pray.
Everyone shook their heads as their hearts sank to the bottom. How could there be a god in this world? If there really was a god, why would there be no one who would care about their miserable lives?
