Chapter 327: The Flamecrest Family’s Move
Some king stage and emperor stage cultivators flew over Larson City. What they had just witnessed sent chills down their spines. They were members of the Blue Dragon Battalion, tasked with controlling the crowd as panic began to spread earlier. Thanks to their efforts, the chaos did not spiral out of control, as the people felt reassured by their presence.
Little did they know, the commander of the battalion himself was terrified after seeing the Cerberus. The energy it exuded was unlike anything he had ever experienced. Many others felt the same—this was their first time encountering the horrifying presence of a creature capable of spreading the feeling of death, a feeling they couldn’t control.
Commander Shang looked at the destruction caused by the battle. Since earlier, he had ordered his troops to assist in evacuating the people. Although he was deeply intimidated by the Cerberus’s massive size and the ominous energy emanating from its body, he reminded himself of his duty to the emperor.
Earlier, he had prepared himself for the worst. However, despair overwhelmed him as he gazed at the giant creature and its deathly aura. It felt as if his soul was bound by something unknown, something that dragged him into the chilling grip of death.
However, as if heaven itself was aiding them, a person capable of overpowering the monster suddenly appeared and slew the creature with a single slash. It was a simple slash, yet it carried power far beyond what he was capable of wielding, a power he had already heard about from many accounts.
All the swords within Larson City unsheathed themselves and flew into the sky—a phenomenon that could only be achieved by one person in this era.
The mysterious swordsman.
The golden energy radiating from the slash confirmed his identity. Commander Shang wanted to approach the sensational and enigmatic figure, but the man had already disappeared from both his sight and his senses. All he could remember was the silhouette of the swordsman’s back—the only glimpse he managed to catch.
"I must report this to His Majesty! That mysterious swordsman—we need to establish a connection with him!" he thought.
