Over The World, Beyond Heaven

"You guys probably didn't notice. But I can clearly see it. That man was able to deal with my millions of warriors all by himself with just a tactical formation. So, I think it must have been that man who caused this light. And it seems that we won't be able to attack Demon's Hill City as planned today. Therefore, order the Shadow Group to retreat!"

The supreme commander of the demon monster beasts knew that if it continued to advance, its troops would surely be defeated. Although it was not afraid of the light that was currently surrounding the city, it did not mean that it would not have any impact on its troops. Even if it managed to break through, it would have to fight many enemies alone by itself. And even if it could win, it would have to pay a high price, which was not worth it at all.

But… but, Master…

"This is my command! Order the Shadow Group to retreat. If we lose the Shadow Group, our situation will only get worse!"

Yes, sir, Master!

All the commanders and generals of the demon monster beast bowed their heads and obediently accepted the command. Because for them, the Supreme Commander's order was the most decisive.

At the same time, there was also chaos on the side of Demon's Hill City. Because after the light element tactical formation started to work, the golden light caused the forces of the Demon Monster Beast Shadow Group that were hiding to be revealed to everyone in Demon's Hill City. That made them know that the number of Shadow Group warriors was more than five million, and each of them had an energy level of Genuine Deity Stage or higher.

"Wha... wha... what are those? Are they demon monster beasts?!"

"Why are they floating above the city? Aren't the forces of the City Governor and the leading medium clan fighting them at the city wall?"

"That's right! Or is the vanguard defeated?!"

Nooooo!!!

"I don't want to die yet. Papa, Mama, help me!"

"You're the one who must help us, Papa and Mama. Our limbs are all stiff!"

Escape quickly!!!

Run away!!!

The chaos started nonstop when people saw the Demon Monster Beast Shadow Group, and it got even more chaotic when some of them started moving around with their scary faces and eyes staring at the people.

"Everyone, don't be alarmed! These demon monster beasts can't enter our city because we have now activated the light element tactical formation. Everyone, please stay calm. And if anyone still causes trouble and chaos, in the name of the City Governor, I will punish that person!"

Ah!!!

City Governor!!!

Suddenly, City Governor Zi-Dong-Lei loudly announced with an energy wave sound, forcing everyone to stay calm.

Yay!!!

"I had thought City Governor would be able to handle it!"

"That's right! I believe so too. The City Governor will be able to do it. It's just like what he said before, 'I will fulfill my promise. Give me fifty years!'"

"Hey! Be careful what you say. City Governor said only five years."

"But… it's been fifty years already!"

"Forget about that for now! If you keep talking, you might get sent to an attitude adjustment program. Focus on your wife first, I saw her running off with another man just now!"

Hah!?

"What did you say? Ah! Who put the green hat on my head!?" (*A person wearing a green hat in China means someone who has been cheated on.)

Oops!

After Zi-Dong-Lei announced, the chaotic situation in the city improved a lot. Everyone feared the power of the City Governor. Moreover, Zi-Dong-Lei had given an ultimatum at the end of his announcement that those who still caused chaos would be punished, so not a single person dared to cause trouble anymore.

Back to the main tent of Zi Clan and Ma Clan...

"Luckily, Little Comrade Zheng-Fu was right. If we had delayed any longer and had to fight against so many invisible enemies, Demon's Hill City would have been left with nothing but a name!" Ma-Li-Wei clearly showed that he admired Zheng-Fu very much. Everything Zheng-Fu did that day made him feel that he had to make Zheng-Fu become the son-in-law of the Ma Clan.

"Clan Leader Ma, do you know what your face looks like right now? If others see it, your reputation will be ruined. I think you should keep this feeling to yourself and show it at your home." Zi-Dong-Lei could see what Ma-Li-Wei was thinking. It made him feel extremely envious that he did not have a daughter. Otherwise, he would not have stayed still either.

Erm!

"I must apologize to the City Governor for not keeping my feelings. But I think… if you were me and had a daughter, you would have done the same thing!" Ma-Li-Wei immediately clasped his hands together and apologized to Zi-Dong-Lei upon hearing the words that seemed like a reprimand. But his expression and manner were the complete opposite of an apology. It seemed more like he was being sarcastic.

You…!

Sigh!

Zi-Dong-Lei could not argue back. It was exactly what Ma-Li-Wei had said, so all he could do was let out a long sigh of sadness.

Flap!

Thump! Thump!

"It seems like it's just in time, Big Brother!"

Third Brother!

Little Comrade Zheng-Fu!

At that moment, two figures flew to stop in front of Zi-Dong-Lei and Ma-Li-Wei.

Hah!?

"Third Brother,… your energy level?!"

But before anyone could say anything, Zi-Dong-Lei's expression suddenly changed. He was excited and overjoyed as he looked at his third younger brother. He could feel the change in Zi-Leng-Kong's energy level.

"Yes, sir, Big Brother! Because I received advice on spell characters from Younger Brother Zheng-Fu. It made me understand spells much better, allowing me to break through a level that I had been stuck in for a long time. He also introduced me to a top-notch method to balance my energy, so it didn't take me long to fully control and use my energy," Zi-Leng-Kong explained with a look of admiration and respect for Zheng-Fu. If possible, he would like to bow to Zheng-Fu and ask him to teach him the inscription technique for creating tactical formations.

Umm!!!

After everyone heard Zi-Leng-Kong's explanation, they all nodded in understanding and were also happy for Zi-Leng-Kong for successfully advancing his energy level to the fourth level of the Great Deity Stage.

However, they were only interested in Zi-Leng-Kong for a short while. After they knew that Zheng-Fu had helped him achieve such great success, they all had the same feeling, which was that they wanted Zheng-Fu to give them some advice.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Or did I do something wrong?!" Zheng-Fu did not know why those people were looking at him. But he knew that they must have been thinking about something, and that matter would be causing him a headache.

"Younger Brother Zheng-Fu, I'm stuck with a little problem. Can you give me some advice?"

Hey!

"You're so shameless! How could you say that to Younger Brother Zheng-Fu? You're still young and have plenty of time to cultivate. But I'm old, Younger Brother Zheng-Fu, give me some advice first."

Hey, man!

"No way! I'll be the first!"

"Me first!"

"No, I'll be the first!"

Soon, chaos broke out as the elders of the two clans wanted Zheng-Fu to give them advice. They all tried to find excuses and good gifts to offer Zheng-Fu so that he could help them with the problems that were hindering their cultivation.

"Erm… I… I…"

Enough, everyone!

Ah!!!

City Governor!!!

"What are you guys doing? Don't you feel ashamed? Little Comrade just helped us repair the light-element tactical formation. He may have wasted a lot of energy. Are you guys still causing trouble for him?" Zi-Dong-Lei clutched his temples. And when he saw Zheng-Fu's distressed expression, he immediately helped Zheng-Fu out of that situation.

Err!!!

"That's right! We're being so shameless. Younger Brother Zheng-Fu, we've to apologize to you. However, when you have free time, please don't forget my offer!"

"Mine too... Please don't forget!"

Mine too!

Mine as well!

Not stopping yet?!

Ah!!!

Sigh!

Because of the activation of the light-element tactical formation, the demon monster beast supreme commander's plan to attack Demon's Hill City had changed, and it ordered the withdrawal of both the forces of the general demon monster beast hordes and Shadow Group back to their Demon Monster Beast Boundary. And that made the situation calm again.

Seeing that the demon monster beast hordes had retreated, Zi-Dong-Lei held a grand meeting with the clan leaders and pillar elders of all the clans that had participated in the war.

At a large special reception tent near the city wall…

"Since everyone is here, I'll begin the meeting now."

Yes, sir, City Governor!!!

"There are two main topics in this meeting. One is how to deal with the remaining demon monster beast hordes, and the other is about my personal matters." Zi-Dong-Lei swept his gaze across all the clan leaders and pillar elders who had joined the meeting.

"We've heard the news that Zi Furen has been abducted. We're very sorry, and we've sent our people who did not participate in the battle to help search for her. We hope that the City Governor will find Zi Furen soon!"

"Thank you very much, Ma Clan Leader! I believe that my Furen will definitely be fine. As for those who dare to do such a despicable thing, when I catch them, I'll torture them and their clans to the utmost!" Zi-Dong-Lei turned to thank Ma-Li-Wei gratefully. But in reality, it was just a play by the two clan leaders that Zheng-Fu had given the script.

Since Zheng-Fu had personally verified that the Ma Clan Leader was trustworthy, he consulted with Zi-Dong-Lei that they should tell Ma-Li-Wei the whole story. As for the others in Ma Clan, they would not let them know, and Zi-Dong-Lei agreed.

"We feel so sorry, City Governor! We, Lun Clan, will do our best to help the City Governor find Zi Hu Yin!"

"We, Gong Clan, will help you too! Who dared to do such a despicable thing!? When we meet those bastards, we'll cut off their hands and legs. And prolong its life for the City Governor to punish."

"If we, Xin Clan, can help City Governor with anything, we will do our best! I just hope that we can catch the culprits and punish them!"

"We… we, Mou Clan, will do our best to help City Governor as well!"

All the major clan leaders hurriedly spoke up to express their kindness and to show that they had no part in this matter. Because they knew that the City Governor would definitely suspect them. But since they did not do anything wrong, they did not feel afraid at all. Only the Mou Clan Leader looked a little nervous.

Thank you very much to all Clan Leaders!
