Supreme Warrior in the City

Yundu Mountain, Sunset Gorge.

This gorge was suitably located, surrounded by cliffs and precipices, with an entrance only three meters wide. Usually, daylight scarcely reached the gorge’s depths. Combined with the poisonous creatures dwelling there and the decaying leaves, a dense and deadly miasma had formed. Hence, it was rare for people to venture inside.

At this moment, over twenty individuals were hidden among the trees within the gorge. The one leading them was Yue Qianfeng from the Divine Physicians Alliance. The rest were from the Divine Farmer Sect and the Back to Heaven Sect.

Upon learning about the situation of the Back to Heaven Sect, Jeang Zier immediately dispatched Yue Qianfeng with a team to receive them. Yue Qianfeng led the team himself and after a journey, finally intercepted these individuals. However, on their way back, they ran directly into an ambush jointly orchestrated by the Nie Family and two other clans.

Yue Qianfeng was strong, but the Nie Family and the two other clans had a total of three Venerable Realm experts launching a combined attack. Yue Qianfeng, overwhelmed, was injured on the way. Had it not been for three lives sacrificed by the Divine Farmer Sect to save him, his chances of survival would have been slim.

Fleeing all the way to Yundu Mountain, they were caught up with once again. Without any other choice, they hid inside Sunset Gorge.

Fortunately, both the Divine Farmer Sect and the Back to Heaven Sect were medical sects with antidote pills on hand. The miasma couldn’t harm them for the time being, serving as a natural barrier.

Though the Nie Family and the other two clans were strong, they dared not rashly enter Sunset Gorge. The miasma’s toxicity was vast, and only those in the Fusion Realm could move about inside.

However, the miasma also greatly reduced visibility within the gorge. Even the three Venerable ones did not dare to enter rashly, fearing an ambush. Being injured inside, coupled with the miasma’s assault, would be extremely dangerous.

Thus, they stood guard outside Sunset Gorge. With only one exit, those inside wishing to leave had no choice but to come through here. Unless they never wanted to leave, they would eventually have to come out and face death.

The two sides had been in a standoff here for half a day when a Nie Family man approached the entrance of the gorge and shouted, "Friends from Back to Heaven Sect, we of the Nie Family merely wish to talk and bear no severe ill will. Why avoid us so? I know your sect members carry antidote pills, but how many do you have? How much miasma is in the gorge? If you stay inside until the pills run out, won’t you have to come out anyway? Rather than wasting the antidote pills, why not come out now and have a chat while we’re still patient?"

There was a deathly silence in the valley. The Nie Family man snickered coldly and shouted again, "My friends, do you really intend to stubbornly persist like this? Don’t say I didn’t warn you, there’s no food in the valley. Fleeing in such a rush, could you possibly have brought provisions? Without service to call or send messages for help, how long could you last? Even if you could send messages, what difference would it make? We three great families stand together in guard here, with three Sovereigns as guardians. Even if the entire Divine Physicians Alliance came, they couldn’t save you. Besides, the Divine Physicians Alliance has its own problems right now, how can they spare time to save you? I suggest you stop struggling and just come out. Once we run out of patience, even if you come out then, we might not be willing to talk anymore!"
