Chapter 229 - People From The CapitalChapter 229: People From The Capital
The several great ancient families of the capital had all gathered at the gate of the City Lord’s Estate. The Shao family was also among them. However, due to various reasons in recent years, they were already at the end, and their status was somewhat awkward.
This was also the reason why they were so fearful of the City Lord’s Estate back then. They could even temporarily put aside Shao Yuchen’s great enmity. Now, they could no longer afford to offend the City Lord’s Estate.
Although the He family could only be considered a middle-class aristocratic family, they had managed to catch up with the others and had developed quite well over the past few years.
Now that everyone knew that the abnormality came from the City Lord’s Estate, they could not help but think of the reason why the City Lord’s Estate had secretly recruited pill refining cultivators previously. On the surface, it was said that they were carrying out a secret mission for the City Lord, could it also be related to the loosening of the seal this time.
“Everyone’s movements are so fast.”
An old man wearing a navy blue robe came over on clouds. His body was surrounded by countless auspicious lights. In an instant, colorful clouds flew up and down like a fairyland. He landed at the gate of the City Lord’s Estate, and the colorful clouds transformed into a stream of light that entered his body.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis cloud was a extreme-grade flying divine artifact. It could be said that it traveled ten thousand miles in a day. Whether it was used to pursue or escape, it was the best choice. It was something that had a price but no market. Now, they actually saw one here, clearly, this person had an extraordinary background. He was an elder of an ancient aristocratic family, the Bai family, and he was quite powerful.
“Elder Bai, what you said is true. There’s something strange going on in the City Lord’s Estate. How can we dare to delay? We naturally have to come and see what’s going on.”
Following that, a few more people arrived. They were all white-bearded old men. The pressure on their bodies was incomparably majestic. They were like the Sun, the Moon, and the stars. The mountains, rivers, and the land were filled with supreme majesty.
Of course, there were also a few young people among them. They had white hair and a youthful face. The aura on their bodies seemed calm, and they did not reveal any signs of their presence.
As long as one sensed it carefully, one would be able to feel the invisible pressure that came from the unseen. It was like a calm volcano. It seemed harmless to humans and animals, but once it erupted, the pressure it created would be even more difficult to measure. These few people were the truly formidable existences.
The group had just met up and they broke through the formation surrounding the City Lord’s Estate. Previously, when Ren Zeyuan and the others were preparing to take action, they had specially set up the formation in order to prevent anyone from disturbing them, or a any aura leaking out that would affect their plans.
When the main body broke through the seal, even all the high-level cultivators in the capital would not be its match. The plan was perfect and could be said to be flawless. The only thing that they had not expected was Lin Bai the anomaly. The entire game was lost.
If Ren Zeyuan had known that Lin Bai entering the City Lord’s Estate would cause such a problem, he would have never agreed to it. However, he had never thought that the ant-like human cultivator would actually have a way to cause harm.
Following the aura of the black fog, everyone went straight to the underground passage of the City Lord’s Estate. Back then, only a few clans knew about the seal. When they saw this, most of them were stunned.
“How can there be such a place in the City Lord’s Estate? Could it be that the City Lord…”
Thinking of the ominous aura that was leaked just now, everyone instantly thought of whether the City Lord was cultivating some kind of evil technique and went mad. That was why the strange phenomenon just now happened.
The person who knew the inside story explained, “Actually, this involves an ancient and unfortunate past. This was once the ancient battlefield, and a terrible battle took place.”
“The aura of resentment overflowed into the sky, and it even affected the surrounding environment. This place became a land of death over time, and no living creature could survive in it. Even after the war ended, this place still retained its original appearance.”
There were even people who saw this place later on. The dead were resurrected again, and they were still fighting there, repeating what happened when they were alive. Those who accidentally barged into the place lost their minds, and at worst, they were unable to walk out of it. After that, they became one of the members fighting the battle here.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDay after day, countless evil powers gathered and nourished this place. Soon after, the existence of “It” was born. After countless powerful existences found out about it, it was already quite powerful and could not be destroyed. They could only choose to seal it.
Following that, the ancestors of the City Lord built the City Lord’s Estate on the ruins here. Their goal was to be able to suppress the evil demons here.
Everyone finally understood and couldn’t help but ask, “Even so, why didn’t you tell everyone so that we could prepare some defenses?”
The ancient family’s people said, “There are very few books left in this world. Our ancestors also warned us not to tell outsiders, so very few people know about this.”
For a moment, everyone’s emotions were complicated, and they didn’t know what to say. “According to this, could it be that the demon broke through the seal and escaped?”
The people from the ancient families shook their heads, “Logically speaking, that shouldn’t be the case. The City Lord would strengthen the seal every once in a while. It’s been the same for generations. Although it’s been a long time and the seal has loosened, it’s not easy for that monster to escape.”
A few of the powerful families and sects didn’t think much of it. “So what if it escaped? We have so many people, can’t we seal it again?”
As soon as these words were said, many people actually agreed with them.
A few grand elders of the ancient aristocratic families, especially those who had come into contact with the black gas, revealed a pitiful expression. Those who were ignorant were fearless. These words were indeed not wrong.
When they helped the City Lord to consolidate the seal, some black gas leaked out. The terrifying power it emitted still made them feel a lingering fear..
