1235: C1235 Guan Dong City

C1235 Guan Dong City

The Guandong City was a small city at the border of the Qing Country. It was close to the Dongfang Alliance. After exiting the city, they would only need to travel a hundred miles north to reach the territory of the Dongfang Alliance.1

Because of Bei Feiyan's appearance, the Dongfang Alliance had suffered a lot in the hands of the Qing Country. Although there were many sects in the Dongfang Alliance, there wasn't much common interests between them. However, to these sects that were close to the Qing Country, the Qing Country was a thorn in their hearts.

Although according to the rules of the Dongfang Alliance, all the major sects in the Dongfang Alliance had maintained the habit of supporting one side in a difficult situation for many years. However, support was only support after all. As the saying went, every family had their own difficulties. If the Qing Country launched an attack on them, the support from the other sects would only be a drop in the bucket. It was also because of this that these sects had always maintained a high level of vigilance and hostility toward the Qing Country.

It was like a tiger sleeping beside their bed, and it could wake up at any time. It would bite off a piece of meat from their bodies and even eat them alive, even swallowing their bones.

It was also because of this that the border of the Qing Country had been constantly harassed and invaded by the Dongfang Alliance for many years. These sect disciples would disguise themselves as bandits or highwaymen to harass the cities at the border of Qing Country. They would even enter the city to kill and plunder.

Regarding this, the Qing Country could only turn a blind eye. Of course, they wanted to stand up for the people of Qing Country who were killed, but the war was not something that could be fought just like that. Before the real war started, both sides would have a long time to argue. During this period of time, what Qing Country could do was... It was a symbolic act to help them vent their anger. That was all.

It was also because of this that a unique phenomenon occurred at the border of Qing Country. If there were highwaymen entering the city, the civilians in the city would skillfully hide. When the highwaymen retreated, the garrisons in the city would attack the highwaymen. After the highwaymen left, the civilians would return to their normal lives.

However, across the entire border, Guandong City was the only one who could ignore the highwaymen.

Ten years ago, the highwaymen arrived at the city gates of Guandong City, forcing the garrison to open the gates. However, this time, it was different from how they could plunder from every city they passed. They're in trouble.

An old man with a single arm charged out from within the city. With his own strength, he had forcefully killed off all the bandits until only one remained. The reason why such a person was left behind was so that he could report back.

As for the factions behind the highwaymen, they were infuriated by this news. They had gathered hundreds of experts to attack Guandong City, and there was even an Eighth Stage expert among them. However, in front of that old man, these hundreds of experts were like broken melons that had just been chopped into pieces.

After that Eighth Stage warrior unleashed his innate ability, he was easily cut in half by the old man's sword. After that, he was cut in half in front of the three Sect Master.

At this moment, the three Sect Master finally understood who their opponent was. Only Ninth Stage warriors could break someone else's divine ability without using any divine ability.

In other words, this seemingly ordinary looking old man who had even lost an arm was actually a Sovereign.

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out what was going on. In this place where birds don't poop or chickens don't lay eggs... Why would a Sovereign appear? However, even though they couldn't figure it out, the news that there was a permanent residence of a Sovereign in Guandong City instantly spread out. It made the surrounding people wary of the Guandong City.

It wasn't as if no one had ever guessed that this old man was just passing by, and would soon leave. However, a year later, another sect tried to attack the Guandong City. The result was even worse than the alliance of several sects a year ago. All of them were killed, and their bodies were placed in a line of big words: "Those who dare to offend the Guandong City, die!"

It was also from this point onwards that no one dared to have any thoughts about the Guandong City anymore. Some people guessed that there might be some kind of heavenly paradise or world-shocking treasure in the Guandong City, but this wasn't something they could covet. If this guess was correct, then this Sovereign must have stayed here for quite some time.

As for how long it wouldn't be, no one could say for sure. The life of the Sovereign was long, and a hundred years was only a short moment.

In order to find out the truth, the people of Dongfang Alliance had made many attempts. Some of them asked for help from the sects that they were close to, and wanted to ask for help from the Sovereign in their sects. However, they were directly rejected. With the strength of the Sovereign, everyone had their own trump card. Unless two Sovereign could also form a situation where their strength was overwhelming, no Sovereign would rashly attack another Sovereign.

There were also people who wanted to send someone to infiltrate the Guandong City. But no matter how good their disguise was, even if they were to sneak into the Qing Country with the caravan, it wouldn't be long before they were killed. Throw them outside the city. In the eyes of the surrounding powers of Dongfang Alliance, Guandong City had become a bottomless pit that could devour people. No one dared to do such a strenuous and unrewarding thing.

Those who were qualified to inquire about the Sovereign were no weaklings. Every single one of them was a treasure in the sect. No one would try to fill a bottomless pit with treasures.

However, what made the people of Dongfang Alliance feel lucky was that unless someone tried to attack the Guandong City... Otherwise, this Sovereign would not appear. This also allowed the people of Dongfang Alliance to confirm their guess. This Sovereign was only here to cultivate. As long as they didn't disturb him, he would be fine.

After the people of the surrounding cities found out about this matter, they all came to the Guandong City. This caused the prosperity of Guandong City to exceed a hundred times of what it was ten years ago in just a short period of time.

In these ten years, the residents in the city had lived a very happy life. They no longer had to worry about the Dongfang Alliance's invasion like before. Although no one knew where the old Sovereign was cultivating in the city until now, everyone knew. The reason why they were able to live such a life was all because of this old man.

In fact, in the city, some people had even drawn a portrait of the old man based on their brief glimpse of the old man, and even called him the old god.

In a very peaceful day, the soldiers at the city gate sat on the ground and looked into the distance. Although their duty was to guard the gate, they had not fulfilled this duty for a long time. After all, there was an old deity in the city. Even if they let the people who harbored ill intentions into the city, the old deity would be able to find them very soon.

One. The soldier looked into the distance in boredom, only to see a group of more than ten people walking towards the city gate. He hurriedly woke up another soldier who was still dozing off. All of them were Fifth Stage warriors. They were considered to be a small expert. The keen senses of the cultivators told them that there were more than a dozen of them in front of them. All of them were extraordinary people.
