The Profound Kun Sect had already lost a hundred Aura Refining cultivators, two third level Qi Controlling cultivators, and five fourth level Qi Controlling cultivators. With such heavy losses, it was impossible for them to send reinforcements.
Even the strongest faction of the human race, the Qi Refining Dao Alliance, could not take care of itself, let alone the Profound Kun Sect, which was only a second-rate sect.
Wu Liang walked out of the courtyard, and the rest of the people hurriedly followed him. They climbed up the Beacon Tower together and looked into the distance.
Outside the prefecture, smoke and fire were flying everywhere. The nearest Jiang family town had already been reduced to ruins. Ghosts could be vaguely seen running amok. Looking over, it was as if shrill screams were echoing in their ears. It was truly terrifying and eerie.
Wu Liang's mind was filled with countless thoughts as he watched the prosperous village become such ruins. It was as if there was a foul breath in his chest, and his breathing became uneven.
"Let's go back to the manor and wait!"
After saying that, Wu Liang walked downstairs with his eyes half-opened.
As soon as he moved, Zhang Zheng suddenly grabbed his body and pointed outside the city wall before he could ask anything.
Looking in the direction of Zhang Zheng's finger, Wu Liang's body froze. A thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his entire body felt like it was being pricked by needles.
The dense forest outside the city wall was packed with people.
To be precise, these were not humans, but zombies! It was formed by a corpse corroded by demonic qi!
Tens of thousands of zombies stood in the dark forest. There were both men and women. The most terrifying thing was that their heads were crooked. Some of them were in the opposite direction, while some were just stuck to their scalps.
As if sensing Wu Liang's line of sight, the thousands of zombies slowly made their way to the city wall from the dense forest outside the city, scaring the soldiers guarding the city wall so much that they almost fell off the wall.
These zombies were not moving fast, and their walking posture was very strange. Their feet rubbed against the ground, making a slight rustling sound. If one did not listen carefully, one would think that it was the sound of sand and stones.
If it was just a zombie, it would be fine. After all, he had seen it before.
What truly terrified Wu Liang and the others was that there was a layer of black fog above the zombies. The thick black fog blended with the silent night, and the surrounding space was distorted. There was no trace of moonlight.
Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. A huge ferocious beast flew past. Its scarlet eyes looked at Wu Liang from afar. The bloody killing intent in it was so strong that it made his brain freeze. He kept retreating…
Just as he was about to fall from the Beacon Tower, Zhang Zheng grabbed him and asked anxiously,"Manor Head, what's wrong?"
"Let's go…Hurry up and leave this place! Three days, wait another three days. If there is still no reinforcements…"
When he thought of that ferocious flying beast, fear flashed across Wu Liang's eyes. He gritted his teeth and said in a cold tone,"Abandon the residents of the prefecture and leave through the underground passage!”
"How can that do? Mansion Master, if we do this, we will be wanted by the Brilliant Flame Empire!”Zhang Zheng was shocked.
"Heh, wanted? Do you think I don't know you? You can't bear to part with your twenty concubines, right?”
"Uh..." Zhang Zheng's face was bright, and he stuttered, unable to speak.
"What about you guys?" Wu Liang sneered and continued. Do you want to stay and wait for death or leave with me? Alright, I'll give you two days to consider."
Hearing this, the others looked at each other with a troubled expression.
All their assets were in the prefecture. If they went through the underground passage, it meant that they had to give up almost all their assets. Otherwise, they would be narrow-minded. The wet width of the underground passage was only enough for one person to pass through. It was impossible to squeeze so many items and people.
Not only that, but they also did not dare to tell their families about the news. Otherwise…With life and death at stake, no one knew what kind of terrifying things someone would do when the number of people who could escape was limited!
Wu Liang no longer paid attention to them. With a gloomy face, he quickly returned to the manor.
The forest outside the city…
Jiang Zhe, an Earth Star Force practitioner, carried his eight-year-old sister on his back as he ran through the dangerous forest, sweating profusely.
Every few steps, a stinky zombie would appear in front of him.
Every time, he had to swing his powerful fist to smash the zombies in front of him. Every time, the injury on his fist would worsen.
That was because…The demonic energy in zombies was highly corrosive!
Without energy to resist, he could only use his flesh and blood to resist!
In order to escape from the Jiang family town to Yuanming Prefecture City, he had already used up all of his qi and blood on the way. His body felt cold and he almost fell to the ground.
A moment later…
"Brother…Put me down…" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled tiredly. Her lips were pale and her face was pale.
"No, I still have strength. I will definitely bring you to a safe place to treat your wound!”
Jiang Zhe pursed his dry lips and glanced sadly at the bleeding wound on Jiang Xiaoyu's neck. He quickly pulled himself together and smiled brightly."Don't worry, I'm an Earth Star Force martial artist. In the past, who in the Jiang family town didn't respect me?”
"Your brother is so mighty and a man of his word. If I say I'll take you to a safe place, I'll definitely take you there!”
Jiang Xiaoyu laughed when she heard that. Haha, brother, you're too arrogant. You've always been the one who's the most tired. We'll do things according to your expression. Everyone's out hunting. You're the strongest, so we'll definitely do things according to your expression. Also, we'll stick to our words…"
"If it was anyone else, they would not be able to reject the beast meat that you gave just like that…Ha!"
"Hahaha, you've found out. No matter what, I'll definitely bring you to the prefecture! I want to watch you grow up. I want you to play with all the toys you've never played with before. And your favorite candied hawthorns. We'll eat one and throw one away. We'll eat whatever we want!”
“.....”
"Sister? Xiao Yu? Don't sleep! Don't fall asleep! If he waited a little longer, he would be able to enter the city soon!”
Jiang Zhe panicked when he felt his small body temperature drop sharply behind him.
"F * ck, my leg, you should listen to me and speed up!!”
"Ah! Damn zombies, get lost!"
Jiang Zhe punched the zombies in front of him crazily. Green blood splattered on his face, and his face was instantly filled with pain.
He charged forward without a care, knocking over a dozen zombies away before kneeling on the ground in exhaustion.
Yuanming Manor was already right in front of them!
