Chapter 445: The Challenge Begins
That night, many people in Imperial City tossed and turned, unable to sleep a wink.
This was not only because they were worried that the Dragon Clan might suddenly attack again and leave them dead without any explanation.
It was also because they had witnessed the legendary Dragon Clan, and the excitement had made it difficult for some of them to sleep.
Even on the second day, the streets and alleys were filled with citizens with dark circles discussing the scene of the black clouds that had descended upon the city last night and the golden dragon shadow that had swept towards the Heavenly Tower.
Due to the Dragon Clan’s invasion the night before, Imperial City’s defences had been greatly strengthened.
The four main gates of Imperial City had many demon-slaying officers stationed at them, and some even had members of the prison department secretly guarding them.
At the East Gate, Zhan Qingfeng yawned, feeling a bit bored. He looked at the newcomer who had recently joined and was diligently standing guard. Zhan Qingfeng smiled and said, “Kid, relax a bit. There is no need to be so nervous.”
The young man frowned and replied, “Senior, this is the legendary Dragon Clan! Every member is incredibly powerful. We have a heavy responsibility to guard the city gate, so we can’t be careless.”
Zhan Qingfeng raised an eyebrow, “Imperial City has four gates in all directions. What are the chances that they’ll come right through us? Besides, guarding the gate is just for show. If something really happens, it won’t be our turn to intervene. Have you ever thought that with your strength, you can stop the Dragon Clan if they really invade Imperial City?”
