Chapter 207: Another Legend in the Capital
“Rumble, rumble...”
After the lightning flashed, the thunder followed, delayed by a moment. Its sound was deafening, rolling endlessly.
On the mountain and down below, countless merchants and travelers, along with those who had seen off the great demon, had yet to return to the capital. Many had witnessed the scene, their eyes dazed by the blinding lightning. Even in Changjing City, some areas could see the lightning flash across the sky.
Meanwhile, most of the martial artists on the mountain had already fallen, and the cold wind blew through, bringing with it the smell of charred remains.
At this moment, there was no distinction between skill levels. Whether they were lowly scoundrels or true masters of the jianghu, under the wrath of the thunder, all beings were equal.
As for the countless arrows, they seemed as though they had never existed, or perhaps they had been dissipated or melted away by the earlier lightning.
To Song You’s surprise, quite a few people were still standing. Perhaps two or three in ten. It seemed many had come just to watch the spectacle.
At the very front was Xi Yishang from the Yunhe Sect of Changjing, and from the Xi family. Xi Yishang had just lowered his arm that had shielded his eyes. Now, looking around, he could no longer maintain his composure. He was standing there in shock, as if turned to stone.
This was no human power—it was divine wrath.
