Chapter 174 - 176: Demon Clan Attacks the City
Mu Can was in one of the satellite cities that surrounded the Nanyuan Empire Capital, a star among stars holding the line as the last defensive barrier of the Nanyuan Empire.
With a Saint Level Array Master at its helm, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the city was as impregnable as a fortress of gold.
"Let’s go! To the city walls." As the Demon Clan laid siege to the city, Mu Can could not just stand by idly. It was also a perfect opportunity to gauge the strength of these demons.
After initial chaos, order had gradually been restored within the city. It seemed that this was not the first time the Demon Clan had launched a large-scale attack.
The sound of marching boots echoed throughout the city, as platoons of soldiers clad in black standard armor marched in neat rows toward the city walls. Moreover, the majority of the Cultivators in the city were also rushing towards the walls. For a moment, the skies were filled with flickering shadows—a lively scene indeed.
The most powerful elder in the teahouse also stood up.
"With the Demon World invading, defending our homes and nation is our duty. We Cultivators fear not battle; I shall follow this young hero to the frontline," said the elder, bowing to Mu Can before speaking.
Seeing the elder take the lead, everyone else also stood up, determined to join Mu Can at the city walls to face the enemy.
"Dead, dead, all dead, but you are alive," the crazed old man shouted out loud, both crying and laughing, after seeing so many people standing up. He took a fall and looked at his heart’s content.
Mu Can was already accustomed to the crazed old man’s behavior. The man had astonishing strength but was somewhat muddled in the head. Mu Can was curious about what could cause a bona fide Martial Saint to end up in this state.
When Mu Can and the others arrived beneath the city walls, they found the place heavily guarded.
