Chapter 86: Shadow Guard
Chapter 86: Shadow Guard
“Who are you?”
Looking at Hu Feng who suddenly appeared before his eyes, the Brocade-Robed Old Man Thrace was greatly shocked, and the City Lord Weinberg, sitting high above, also widened his eyes.
No one expected that someone would sneak outside the heavily guarded council hall and then charge in so loudly. The solid walls carved with layers of Magic Arrays were like iron and copper walls; even a Fourteenth Step Bimeng could not tear open a gap with one claw. Unexpectedly, Hu Feng smashed a huge hole with just one punch!
King of Strength!
Having devoured the Barbaric Divine Power of the Fifteenth Step Minotaur King, Hu Feng’s strength reached an astonishing level, and his strong body alone was already far beyond everyone’s reach.
“Assassin, there is an assassin!”
“Protect the Lord, quickly!”
…
The loud commotion quickly alerted the guards outside, and a large group of guards quickly poured into the council hall. The experienced Black Shadow Iron Riders reacted even better, quickly forming a formation to shield Elder Thrace, facing a formidable enemy as they nervously watched Hu Feng, whose strength was unfathomable.
“Who am I?”
Looking at Thrace, who was trying hard to stay calm, Hu Feng smiled coldly, “Brother Weinberg, since people are bullying you right on top of your head, what are you still waiting for?”
After hearing the conversation between the Brocade-Robed Old Man Thrace and City Lord Weinberg, Hu Feng quickly thought of a plan, leaving Weinberg no choice but to board his Chariot.
Brother?
Elder Thrace’s expression changed, he glanced at City Lord Weinberg not far away, and quickly understood what was happening. With a ‘shing’, he pulled out his sharp long sword, “Retreat, leave here immediately. Weinberg, I didn’t expect you to be so bold. Soon, you will pay the price for today’s stupidity!”
City Lord Weinberg of Sand City was a man of great talent and strategy. After inheriting the position of City Lord from his family, he had always been committed to expanding his power. If not for the constraint of Cold Moon City, he would have long brought the surrounding area of ten thousand miles under his control. Before taking action, Thrace understood that this mission was extremely difficult and Weinberg would not submit so easily. But he never thought that the other side would turn hostile so quickly, having ambushed a powerful killer!
“Since you have come to our Sand City, don’t even think about leaving!”
Elder Thrace reacted swiftly, but unfortunately, someone was faster than him. Before his voice fell, Hu Feng suddenly appeared behind him like a ghost. His five fingers formed a hook and stabbed into his back with a ‘puchi’, and a phantom of a Demon God with four faces and eight arms appeared behind him. Before everyone could react, he swallowed Thrace alive in front of them.
After breaking through to the Great Magician realm, Hu Feng, wearing the Ghost King Cloak, was truly elusive. A large group of fierce Knights guarded Thrace, but in an instant, they could not rescue him in time!
“Elder My Lord…”
Hearing Elder Thrace’s screams, the Knights were both shocked and angry, and they pounced on Hu Feng together. Unfortunately, before they could get close, they suddenly felt a silver light flash before their eyes, and a thumb-sized hole appeared on their foreheads. Blood flowed profusely, and their consciousness became increasingly blurred. Before falling to the ground, out of the corner of their eyes, they saw their brothers falling one by one.
“Go… go quickly, go back and find Lord Redelson to avenge us!”
Seeing that the Knights he brought were almost instantly killed, Elder Thrace helplessly gave up his struggle. As he was completely swallowed by the Demon God Phantom, he let out a desperate scream. At his reminder, a Knight on the outermost edge hastily opened a Teleportation Scroll to return directly to the distant City of Thunder Explosions. Just as his figure was about to disappear, his entire right arm was torn off by the elusive Hu Feng with a ‘crack’, leaving behind a shrill scream.
Violent and cruel, fast as lightning!
In just a few breaths, the powerful Thrace and his group were completely wiped out, leaving only one Knight who luckily escaped with half his life through the Teleportation Scroll. By the time the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion came to their senses, the dust had settled, and it was too late.
Hu Feng, determined to drag City Lord Weinberg onto his Chariot, struck fast and hard; how could he give him a chance to explain or stop him?
In an instant, looking at Hu Feng who was killing righteously and openly, the guards really thought he was a top Stronger ambushed by the Lord City Lord. They looked at each other, and not a single one dared to step forward.
“Who are you, who exactly are you, why are you deliberately framing me?”
Looking at the ruthless Hu Feng who was killing wildly, Weinberg stood up abruptly with a gloomy face. He waved his hand, signaling the guards to retreat far away. Facing a top Stronger like Hu Feng, he understood that no matter how many ordinary guards there were, it would be useless, and surrounding them here would only be more of a hindrance.
As a City Lord with great talent and strategy, he quickly understood Hu Feng’s intention without needing to think much.
Thrace and his group were wiped out in the City Lord’s Mansion; this move was ruthless enough. Even if he had a thousand mouths, he could not explain it away, and the Morgan Family would definitely blame this debt on him. Thinking of the crazy revenge of the Morgan Family, his limbs could not help but feel cold. Although Sand City was powerful, if the Morgan Family attacked on a large scale, it would definitely not be a match.
“Lord Weinberg, from now on, you can call me Blackwater!” Thinking of the Blackwater City he had just occupied, Hu Feng found a pseudonym without thinking, “I came here not to frame you, but to help you. Could it be that you are willing to just join the so-called alliance and be cannon fodder for the despicable Morgan Family?”
Hu Feng hit the nail on the head, touching Weinberg’s mind.
He was as clear as a mirror about the Morgan Family’s calculations, and it was impossible to join their so-called Bourbon Alliance. However, even if he refused, it was absolutely impossible to use such an extreme method. Even if he wanted to kill Thrace and his group, he would absolutely not be stupid enough to do it in the City Lord’s Mansion, let alone let an outsider do it! Elder Thrace was dead, which was one less trouble, but a bigger trouble was still ahead.
“Young man, no matter who you are, you are dead!”
Weinberg took a deep breath and resolutely decided to strike. He raised the wine glass in his hand high, and then threw it down hard. With a ‘snap’, the glass shattered into pieces. At the same time, the air rippled, and several strands of gloomy wind suddenly appeared in the darkness, pouncing on Hu Feng not far away almost soundlessly. Intense Killing Intent suddenly filled every corner of the council hall.
Shadow Guard!
After weighing the situation, Weinberg resolutely sent out the strongest guard by his side.
Since things had come to this, regret was of no use. How to deal with the revenge of the Morgan Family could only be thought of later. Right now, the most important thing was to capture this uninvited guest, Hu Feng. If Hu Feng just slipped away quietly, even as the City Lord, he would not be able to face the censure of his family.
