Chapter 309 - 309 Something Happened

309 Something Happened

Lin Xuan and the rest were not familiar with the inside story of the beast tide, so they did not speak and just stood quietly at the side.

As for the two earth-rank powerhouses, they didn’t come to a conclusion after a long discussion. Finally, they decided to let nature take its course. After all, an earth-rank Demon King couldn’t cause any trouble in Taixia Country.

The guardian handed over the short-term work at hand, then glanced at Lin Xuan and the two Lin sisters. He smiled and left.

“What’s the deal with this animal tide? Is Taixia Country powerful enough to sweep over all the wild monsters in the territory?”

Lin Xuan didn’t ask, but Lin Zhenxing did.

“Eh? Hmm, indeed, Taixia Country is powerful enough, but what do you think about the destructive power of earth-rank powerhouses?”

Lin Xuan thought about it for a moment. With the earth-rank’s terrifying ability to control the power of natural disasters, any earth-rank magical power that came crashing down would be a natural disaster for ordinary people.

“That’s right. The destructive power of an earth-rank powerhouse is so strong. Of course, Taixia can take action by force and wipe out everything. However, what about the counterattacks of those earth-rank Demon Kings before they die? When they know that they are going to die, it’s not impossible for them to blow themselves up in the center of a city. If it weren’t for the four top powerhouses guarding the city, I’m afraid that several cities would have been turned into ruins.

“Later on, Taixia reached an agreement with the earth-rank Demon Kings. They aren’t allowed to endanger ordinary people. If they didn’t violate the agreement, they could still have fun.

“However, once they violated the agreement, the immortals of Wudang Mountain, Blue Sea Palace, Western Capital, and the southern border would kill them directly.

“That’s why the beast tide has become a game between earth-rank powerhouses, wild monsters, and humans. We’re using the beast tide as a way to train our troops while wild monsters are trying to break through a city. It’s strange for the beast tide to appear in Changyang City this time. By right, earth-rank Demon Kings shouldn’t dare to appear near the southern border.”

There were four places in Taixia Country that earth-rank Demon Kings didn’t dare to approach at all, namely Wudang Mountain, Blue Sea Palace, Western Capital, and Nanjiang. Especially Nanjiang, which was full of killing intent.

“Whatever, I’ll bring the two of them in to take a look. As for the earth-rank Demon King, we’ll leave it to you!”

“Alright, I can guarantee that it won’t have a second chance to attack you!

“Thank you. Then let’s move out, Star Moon Party!”

They took the bus to the city gate of Changyang City. It was a bustling place with shops selling monster materials everywhere. However, the city gate was not wide open at the moment. Only one door was open. After registering their identities, the three of them left the city.

Dragon Clan’s Secret Technique Swimming Dragon!

This was a basic spell of the dragon race, mainly used for acceleration. Lin Xuan had learned it back then because this spell could not only be used on himself, but also on others.

Ye Guanglong roared, and three clouds of mist floated over the three of them. Their auras, scent, blood, and other trails were all covered, and their figures were also faintly discernible. However, this was of no use to Lin Xuan. His blood was too vast, and with just a slight fluctuation, it tore through the mist.

Helplessly, he could only use Dragon Breath to conceal his aura and put on the veil.

Lin Xuan moved quickly. Even if he did not use eight steps at full force, Lin Xuan’s physical body was there. With a tap of his toes, he could travel a hundred meters. After running for a while, he realized that the two Lin sisters might not be able to catch up. He turned around and saw that they were actually following him.

Lin Zhenyue stood on her flying sword like a peerless sword fighter, and her speed was extremely fast. As for Lin Zhenxing, she merged with the luminous dragon and used the luminous dragon’s understanding of light to run extremely fast.

That’s right, these two were no longer the little girls who hid behind him and shivered when they were yellow-rank; they’d grown up now.

“Can you go any faster?”

“Of course, we can. My sister and I thought that was all you could do, so we didn’t have the heart to call you.”

“Don’t underestimate me!”

With just a little bit of force, Lin Xuan’s speed doubled. For a moment, the two sisters looked at each other. “D*mn it, he’s so fast, I can’t catch up!”

Fortunately, Lin Xuan quickly stopped behind a huge rock.

“What’s wrong?”

“There’s a group of mystic-rank demons. They might be the core monsters of this beast tide!”

The three of them peeked their heads out. Lin Xuan secretly sent a message to Ruo Yanxing, and it instantly showed that he had read it. He knew what to do.

If there were no accidents, the earth-rank Demon King should also be nearby and had already discovered the three of them. The reason why he didn’t attack now was probably that the Demon King didn’t want to do so.

“Then I’ll force you to make a move!”

Lin Xuan’s eyes flashed with a murderous glint. He moved and instantly entered the rest area of the mystic-rank demons. He raised his fist and gave a fierce blow. An ape’s head was instantly smashed open by Lin Xuan. Lin Zhenyue also charged in with her sword in hand. With a dance, she beheaded one of the mystic-rank demons that Lin Xuan had intimidated.

Lin Zhenxing didn’t stay idle either. She immediately cast a curtain of darkness. The night covered a small area. Other than affecting one’s vision, it also came with an illusion, preventing anyone who was covered by the curtain of the night from escaping.

The three of them instantly coordinated with each other and caught the mystic-rank monsters off guard. After killing six of them, the rest were heavily injured and on their last breath.

“Hey, this is a Golden-tailed Spiritual Monkey with high intelligence.”

Lin Zhenyue grabbed the back of a monkey-type monster’s neck and looked at it carefully. She was pleasantly surprised.

“What do you mean?”

“Lin Xuan, did you know that there’s another way for monsters to cause a beast tide other than an earth-rank Demon King? That’s to start with a monster with high intelligence. This Golden-tailed Spiritual Monkey could have been the cause of it!”

“You’re saying that the monster horde here was started by a mystic-rank monster?”

“I’m not sure, but it’s possible. You have to know that there are fewer highly intelligent wild monsters than even earth-rank Demon Kings, so we didn’t think in that direction at first!”

“In other words, our team building is over?”

Lin Xuan touched his chin, which was already beginning to grow a beard. “Forget it, pack up these mystic-rank monsters and send them back to Changyang City. I’ll also tell Ruo Yanxing about the situation.”

Even though Lin Zhenyue’s explanation was on point and her analysis was logical, Lin Xuan felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Lin Xuan and the rest returned to Changyang City with the demons. Ruo Yanxing’s expression was extremely serious the moment they met.

“Something has happened. Su District and Lianyun City have fallen. Three earth-rank Demon Kings and sea beasts attacked together. The earth-rank guardian has fallen!”
