Chapter 1331

When Zi Chen heard this roar, he was so scared that he almost fell down.

This roar contained a terrifying pressure that came directly from the depths of his soul. If he was closer, Zi Chen believed that his soul would have been destroyed by this roar.

When he turned around, he saw that the king level beasts did not chase after him anymore. They only stared at him coldly and unwillingly. It was obvious that this roar was the cause.

"You can actually command king level beasts."

Zi Chen was so scared that his expression changed drastically. He did not dare to stay here any longer and immediately followed the four people far away.

He secretly swore that he would never come here again. He also finally understood why Yan Ming and the others returned empty-handed after coming here to investigate.

To be able to command a group of king level beasts, the person himself was not a stronger king level beast, but an emperor level beast that was even stronger than a king level beast.

One must know that an emperor level beast was equivalent to a human Realm Lord who had crossed over to the 4th Domain Realm.

Such an existence could even become the Shuntian Prefecture's Prefecture Lord.

Zi Chen used two days to catch up with them. Everyone was very excited when they saw Zi Chen.

"How is it? Does it feel good to be chased?" Seeing that Zi Chen had returned in one piece, Wu Xie joked.

"It feels good. Why don't you try it too?" Zi Chen smiled faintly.

Wu Xie quickly waved his hand and said, "I can't. I don't have your abnormal speed."

Following that, he asked again, "How about it? How many days should we rest this time?"

Zi Chen said unhappily, "We rest forever."

"What do you mean? You're not going anymore? Are you scared by a few king level beasts?"

Wu Xie was stunned. The others also looked at Zi Chen in confusion.

However, Dong Qing helped Zi Chen out of the situation and said, "Actually, we've already gained a lot. It's time to go back."

Wu Xie muttered, "If we miss this village, we won't have this shop anymore."

Zi Chen laughed out loud. "Have you ever seen a village? Have you ever seen a shop in a village?"

"Uh …" Wu Xie was stunned and said, "It's just a saying."

In the Zhan Wu Continent, there are only tribes and mountain strongholds. There is no such thing as a village because there are no mortals in this world.

"We can't go to that place anymore. I'm afraid we'll lose all our gains."

"What do you mean?"

Zi Chen thought back to that roar and felt a lingering fear in his heart. "Do you know how I managed to escape the pursuit of a group of King level battle beasts? This time, it wasn't because I was fast, nor was it because I used a doppelganger. It was because I heard a beast's roar. It was that roar that stopped the King level battle beasts from pursuing me. I suspect that it was the leader of the group."

When everyone heard this, their faces changed greatly. Wu Xie exclaimed, "What? A roar stopped a group of King level battle beasts? Then isn't it …"

Zi Chen nodded and said, "Yes, if it's not an extremely powerful King level battle beast, it might be an Emperor level battle beast. This time, it was really lucky that the other party gave up. Do you think we should go deeper?"

Everyone shook their heads again and again. Wu Xie said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up and run. Don't come back to this place for the rest of your life."

The five of them took the flying boat and began to return.

It took them two months to come here. Because there was still a lot of time to go back, it took them two and a half months on the road.

After the five of them returned, the first thing they did was to report their whereabouts to Hunter's Castle. They could see Lord Wu directly.

After more than ten years, Lord Wu was very happy to see Zi Chen and the others again. He invited Zi Chen and the others to his room and poured tea for them personally.

After sitting down, Lord Wu asked with a smile, "How was your harvest?"

"Not a small one," said Zi Chen. The others also had excited smiles on their faces.

"This time, we've obtained several battle beasts with high-level bloodlines, and all of them are at the peak of the Spirit Rank," Dong Qing added.

Lord Wu laughed and said, "That's great. This way, your safety will be guaranteed when you enter the Manor World."

Zi Chen put down his teacup and suddenly asked, "By the way, did Yanbo Castle give us the compensation they promised?"

"You're talking about the entry tokens, aren't you?" Lord Wu's face turned gloomy.

"Why? They haven't sent them yet?" Everyone was very surprised. It had been many years. Even if they walked, they should have arrived by now.

Lord Wu sighed and said, "They did send them, but they only sent an early stage Corporeal Realm cultivator to deliver five of them. They said that the others were robbed on the way."

"What? Only five? The people of Yanbo Castle are too much." Wu Xie was furious.

"Robbed? Even a fool wouldn't believe such a lame excuse." Man Shi was also very angry.

Shang Guan Hong and Dong Qing's faces turned ashen. It was obvious that they were very angry after hearing the news.

Zi Chen was the only one who looked calm.

Wu Xie asked curiously, "You're not angry?"

Zi Chen smiled faintly and said, "What's there to be angry about? Yanbo Castle's actions are clearly suicidal. Since they're willing to leave some entry tokens for their people to die with, then why not fulfill their wish?"

Everyone was enlightened when they heard this.

"Yes, that's right. Since they don't want to give us the tokens, then we'll kill a few dozen of them. That'll be the reward for the tokens." Wu Xie nodded.

Zi Chen looked at Wu Xie with disdain and said, "Kill a few dozen of them? You have the nerve to say that?"

"Then you mean …" Wu Xie was startled.

"If the conditions permit, then naturally we won't let a single one of them go." Zi Chen said coldly.

This was Zi Chen. When he was kind, he wouldn't even kill a single warbeast. But when he was ruthless, he treated human lives like dirt.

Lord Wu admired Zi Chen's personality very much. He originally wanted to tell them in advance, but now that he saw Zi Chen's attitude, there was no need to waste his breath.

Finally, Zi Chen asked, "Have the proper channels passed down the tokens?"

"Not yet, but it should be soon."

After chatting for a while, Zi Chen and the others left.

Because they had been away for a long time, they were almost cut off from the rest of the world. Wu Xie and the others went to the center of the city after returning, while Zi Chen returned to his room to cultivate.

He hadn't encountered a bottleneck yet. As long as he cultivated, his strength would increase.

In the past few years, the two Void Trees had also contributed greatly to Zi Chen. They had been increasing Zi Chen's strength at every moment.

Ten days later, news reached Hunter's Castle that the proper channels had sent down the tokens this time.

When Lord Wu received the news, he immediately led his men out of the city.

When he reached the outskirts of the city, he found that many Domain Realm cultivators had already arrived. The leader was a tall middle-aged man who looked very cold. He was the true City Lord of Huping City, Mu Feng.

Lord Wu led Ling Xing and the others forward. The Domain Realm cultivators along the way made way for them when they saw them.

When they arrived in front of Mu Feng, the two of them nodded as a greeting.

Mu Feng gazed into the distance and said indifferently, "I wonder how many tokens there will be this time."

When Lord Wu heard this, he laughed bitterly and said, "After what happened last time, I'm afraid there won't be many."

Mu Feng was silent for a moment. No one knew what he was thinking. After a while, he asked, "How are their preparations?"

"We're just waiting for the Manor World to open."

"I hope they won't disappoint."

Lord Wu said confidently, "Don't worry. I have high hopes for them. If their luck isn't too bad, they should be able to do something this time."

"That's good." Mu Feng nodded.

Lord Wu looked at the Domain Realm cultivators behind him. Most of them were family members of Huping City, and they were waiting to get their share of the tokens.

"Hunter's Castle will only send seven people this time. There will be three more tokens, and they will be sent to the City Lord's Castle when the time comes," Lord Wu said telepathically.

When City Lord Mu Feng heard this, a bitter smile appeared on his face. He said, "It seems like this will be an extremely difficult and offending task."

Lord Wu smiled and said flatteringly, "Our City Lord isn't afraid of offending people."

Mu Feng laughed out loud.

After a short conversation, everyone waited in silence. The Domain Realm cultivators behind them were more or less nervous.

After a while, a huge flying ship appeared in front of everyone.

This was Lu Guangcheng's flying ship. Lu Guangcheng's ranking in Shuntian Prefecture was only one place higher than Huping City's. He was ranked one hundred and seventh.

Three people jumped down from the flying ship. All three of them were Domain Realm cultivators.

When Lord Wu and Mu Feng saw the middle-aged man in the lead, they were slightly stunned. Mu Feng was a little surprised because of this. "It's just a token. I didn't expect the City Lord to come personally."

Lord Wu smiled bitterly and said softly, "It seems like things are worse than we thought."

Mu Feng seemed to have thought of something, and his face darkened.

"City Lord Mu Feng, Brother Wu." City Lord Lu Guangcheng cupped his fists at the two of them from afar.

"Brother Lu." The two of them cupped their fists in response.

Some of the Domain Realm cultivators behind the two of them revealed strange expressions when they learned of the middle-aged man's identity.

After a simple exchange of pleasantries, Mu Feng led the three of them back to the City Lord's Mansion. During this time, Ling Xing and the others returned while Lord Wu followed them.

Other than Lord Wu, Huping City was accompanied by an armored commander of the city's army. His position in Huping City could be ranked in the top three.

In the hall, after everyone had taken their seats, City Lord Lu Guang stood up and cupped his hands together. With an apologetic look on his face, he said, "Brother Mu, Brother Wu, Brother Wei, I have come here personally to apologize to you."

"Brother Lu, sit down and talk. It should be about the token, right?" Lord Wu asked.

"Yes." City Lord Lu Guangcheng nodded and sat down.

Lu Guangcheng and Huping City were ranked last and second from the bottom. Neither of them laughed at the other, so the relationship between the two cities had always been very good.

In the previous few times, the quota tokens were also distributed equally after they were given out.

Lord Wu and Mu Feng exchanged glances. Mu Feng nodded and asked, "How many tokens will there be this time?"

City Lord Lu Guangcheng sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, there were only twelve tokens when they arrived in Lu Guangcheng."
