"City Lord!"
Long Chen nodded to the guard and walked towards the lord's manor.
"Long Hong, immediately gather the Patriarchs and Patriarchs of the five great families of Star City. Tell them that the City Lord has invited them to the scene immediately.”?
Long Chen gave an order to a steward of the Long family. When Long Chen was not around, most of the matters were managed by him.
"Understood." After leaving the mansion, Long Hong nodded slightly.
"Yin 'er, you should go back to your room. When everyone is here, our lord will be discussing important matters…" Long Chen said to his daughter.
Long Yuyin nodded slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she said,"Father, are you going to tell them about Big Brother Ling Tian?……Will we ever see him again?" Long Yuyin asked with anticipation.
haha
Long Cheng looked at his daughter and couldn't help but sigh. He knew that she liked that young man. It was normal for her to show interest in that young man.
He had saved them both when they were about to die, and even his daughter might have fallen in love with him.
"Yin 'er, don't worry. I'm sure he'll come back. I'm sure of it. He told us that he was lost.”
" Also, Yin 'er, don't be so rude to him. You have to be respectful. We don't know where he came from, and we don't know if he has a bad temper and will hurt us…" Thinking about how his daughter actually dared to ask the young man's name, Long Chen sighed in his heart.
Long Yuyin suddenly remembered the courage she had to ask for Ling Tian's name, and her face turned red.
She did not know why she did this, but she knew that if she did not ask for his name, she would regret it.
Long Yuyin walked back to her room to bid farewell to her father. She was now determined. To become as strong as Ling Tian and protect her family. And seeing him again.
An hour later.
City Lord Manor's main hall meeting.
The Patriarchs and Ancestral Elders of the five most powerful families in Star City had gathered together.
The Ze family. The Ming family. Yun family. Tang Family. Zhang family.
Long Chen sat at a slightly higher position. This way, he could supervise and speak without being disturbed by everyone present.
There were at least 12 people in the room. They all sat around a large round table so that everyone could see each other.
Long Chen sat at the front with Long Hong beside him.
Each space below had two people together, and one arrangement represented each family.
" Everyone, first of all, Peng Se, Ling Hao, Wa Ning, and the others from the exploration team are all dead…Even Long Deng and Zesen are dead…"
sob
No one spoke. It was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of a needle falling. The atmosphere lasted for a few minutes before someone said,"
" I would like to express my condolences to all the warriors. The death of the greatest protector of Star City is regrettable and sorrowful..." As the patriarch of the Ze Family, Zerum said sadly as he thought of those warriors. Even Ancestor Zubeim nodded in agreement.
" Especially the last two, Lord Long Deng and Lord Ze Sen. They are both Emperors…" Ming Xian thought of the last two and his tone was gloomy. A light flashed in his eyes, but no one noticed it.
The atmosphere was tense for a while before Long Chen spoke again,"Unfortunately, we encountered a very powerful demon beast that has already surpassed the legendary level. Even I am not a match for the demon beast, not even the demon beasts of other levels.”According to the legends, that demonic beast could easily kill us…"
What was that?
Stronger than a Legendary…?
The clan leaders and elders were all stunned. They turned to Long Chen and asked him if he was joking. However, seeing that he didn't show any signs of joking, they began to believe him.
" City Lord..." Yun Dong hesitated before continuing,""If that creature is stronger than you and you are no match for it, doesn't that mean that Star City is in danger?”
Everyone was stunned. They began to worry that Star City would be threatened like this. If it was stronger than the Legendary stage, wouldn't it be a disgrace to everyone? Who could survive such a powerful demonic beast?
Tang Wei asked slowly, wanting to confirm something."Dragon City Lord, you just said that you encountered that demonic beast, and it was able to kill everyone in the team. If that's the case…how did you guys survive?”
Everyone reacted to Tang Wei's question and looked at Long Chen. The latter nodded and explained the matter clearly.
"This is what I wanted to tell you. Actually, that demonic beast is already dead. " It was killed by someone before it killed me and my daughter…" Long Chen sighed as he recalled Ling Tian's breathtaking scene. Killing demonic beasts.
Was the demonic beast that had surpassed the Legendary Realm killed?
What kind of powerful force could do that?
Was he someone who surpassed Legend?
"City Lord, in other words, has this person surpassed the Legendary Realm?" Zhang Chao raised his head and asked. Who was this powerful person?”
"That's right, he's not an old man, he's not even an adult…he's a young man!" His name was Ling Tian, and he looked to be around 20 years old. However, he was still able to kill that demon with ease.”
What?
Everyone present was stunned. Could it be that he was just a young man who had power beyond the Legendary level? This was impossible!
Long Chen looked at everyone and knew that they couldn't believe it. Even he did not dare to believe that a young man like Ling Tian would possess such shocking strength.
Long Chen didn't wait long before continuing," Not only that, he also used a sword to kill demonic beasts…"
A sword? Perhaps this sword had great power, or even an astonishing sharpness. There was a reason why it could kill demon beasts.
Before they could come to any conclusion, Dust Dragon's voice sounded again.
"However, that young man didn't directly fight the demonic beast…He seemed to be controlling the sword from afar to kill the demonic beast. " The sword danced in the air, cutting open wounds on the demon beast's skin…The demon beast only lasted for less than 10 seconds before its head was cut off by the sword…Then, the sword floated to the young man's side and he finally held it in his hand…" Long Chen said in surprise, as if he had seen something sacred with his own eyes. It was as if the youth was a powerful god who easily killed the demon beast.
The sword danced in the air and injured the demon beast?
Shouldn't a sword only be held in one's hand?
Less than ten seconds?
The youth…was the legendary Divine level?!
"Not only that…when he left, he stepped on his sword and soared into the sky! That's the legendary flying sword!" Long Chen recalled seeing Ling Tian riding on the sword and flying into the sky, and couldn't help but exclaim.
Everyone in the room was shocked by the news. Although they felt that it wasn't real, the City Lord shouldn't joke around. This was related to the death of those martial artists who were the biggest protectors of Star City.
Moreover, if that demonic beast was still around, it would be the biggest threat that Star City had ever faced.
After a few minutes, someone spoke again.
"Dragon City Lord…did that young man Ling Tian say where he came from? He couldn't possibly be from Star City, right?”? Yun Dong said hesitantly. He still could not believe it.
"Oh right…could it be over at the mountains? "But we haven't known about any human settlements for hundreds of years..." Zelum said while thinking about where this young man came from.
" Indeed, he isn't from Star City, but I can't tell you if he really came from any human settlement that we've researched before…" Long Chen recalled Ling Tian's words and said.
"I don't think he's even from here. He said he was lost, but before he could ask me what this place was called... he didn't seem to be from here, and suddenly appeared..."
Didn't he come from here?
Could there really be human settlements that transcended national boundaries?
" Oh right…Mr. Ling Tian said that he would come to Star City after visiting all the places we were at…It seems like he wants to find a place to rest…" Long Chen continued,""That's why I told him that Star City's reward for him is very generous. Because he destroyed such a demonic beast that could destroy our city, when he arrives, he will invite the City Lord's Mansion and we will arrange a place for him to stay. He…"
"Therefore, I've placed a guard at each of the main entrances so that we'll be notified immediately when he arrives. Therefore, if someone met him on the road, you had to respect him and do whatever he wanted. With his power, Star City is absolutely safe. Maybe we can find out where he came from and know that there are still lives outside the border.”
? Long Chen gave such an order and started to describe Ling Tian's characteristics so that they would remember them. Attracting Ling Tian was a must. With his strength, Star City would not be threatened.
" I feel that Star City is going to suffer in the future, so we need Mr. Ling Tian to be our shield. Only then can we avoid the disaster in our family in the future…" Long Cheng recalled seeing a person and said.
A few days ago, a terrible phenomenon appeared in the sky, which was a bit far from Star City.
Before they bid farewell, everyone nodded in agreement. A few days ago, the entire city saw such a phenomenon.
The sky began to darken, accompanied by the sound of thunder that could be heard all the way to Star City. The lightning that completely lit up the sky made Long Chen feel a sense of fear and terror, making him believe that Star City would have a great disaster in the future.
Long Chen continued to ponder, then stood up and left.
We must have Ling Tian on our side!
