Chapter 627: Chapter 627: There has never been a rise without bloodshed (first update)
With those words, more than a dozen figures flew across the sky and landed in the courtyard.
Once they had taken their positions, the crowd realized with a start that these were all masters with powerful auras.
Leading them was a middle-aged man with three strands of a goat beard and a grim face.
His cultivation level was indiscernible, yet the chilling light in his gloomy eyes was enough to make people avert their gaze.
“It’s Luo Wenshi!”
“The City Lord himself has come!”
...
The crowd erupted into a buzz of activity.
The one who had arrived was none other than Luo Wenshi, the City Lord of Luofu City.
He glanced down at Geng Jin, who was tongue-lolling, on all fours, and crawling like a pig or dog, his expression growing even darker.
“To shatter the soul and then mold it into the shape of a pig or dog, forcing it to become a human-shaped beast, your methods are truly cruel,” Luo Wenshi said icily.
Xue An looked at Luo Wenshi with a smile that was not quite a smile and said indifferently, “Thank you for the compliment.”
Hearing this, all of Luo Wenshi’s subordinates behind him became furious.
“City Lord, this kid is too arrogant! Not killing him is not enough to quell the rage, and it’s also hard to explain to the ancestors of the Shiva Demon Sect!”
“Exactly, a mere whelp from the Hua Clan, who knows what crooked methods he used, dares to act so insolently. We should kill him!”
These people began to clamor one after another.
At this moment, the situation began to change.
The crowd that had been watching silently until now suddenly and discreetly moved behind Luo Wenshi.
Aside from Xue An, Hua You’an, and a few others, only the Puppet Immortal Sect and the Garan Sect’s master and disciple, Wan Chengyi, stayed put.
The number of people on each side was now starkly disproportionate, with a huge gathering of cultivators from all places behind Luo Wenshi.
Behind Xue An, on the other hand, it was empty and seemed very deserted.
Under such circumstances, many in the crowd began to look at Xue An with hostility.
In their long-held beliefs, the Hua Clan should not have a strong presence, should be subjected to bullying, and should remain at the very bottom of the myriad races, never to rise again.
Yet, the sudden emergence of Xue An made these people feel a profound sense of threat.
Annihilating a Golden Immortal with a punch, crushing souls with a flick of the finger.
This kind of terrifying ability made the sect cultivators deeply wary of him.
If he were allowed to grow and become even more powerful, who knows what the Hua Clan would become.
Better to eradicate him now, while he isn’t that strong yet.
Moreover, it was Luo Wenshi of Luofu City taking personal action, and by following behind and cheering, they could make a good impression on Luo Wenshi with little effort.
Why would they not seize such an opportunity?
Considering that the grand meeting of all races was about to begin, and Mars was about to emerge from within the clouds, establishing a good relationship with the City Lord of Luofu City now could mean access to a lot of useful information.
So, in light of these various factors, almost all the cultivators had gone to the other side.
