Chapter 1607: Chapter 1467: Ice City, City Master Bing Li

The edge of the giant sword, eerily wrapped in ghostly energy, coils around the curved sword in the hand of the Ghost Dome King!

“ROAR!!!!” With a bellow, the terrifying giant sword in the hands of the Ghost Dome King thunderously falls!

The width of the curved sword itself was already astonishing, and surrounded by ghostly energy, its downward strike delivered a direct crushing force upon the densely packed Ice Mountain Monsters!

“BOOM!!!!!!!!!!”

Flesh flew in all directions, as the curved sword fell, instantly crushing three to four thousand Ice Mountain Monsters into minced meat, while the scattering sword energy and ghostly energy horrifically swept through and eradicated even more of those Ice Mountain Monsters!

With this one sword strike, probably ten thousand Ice Mountain Monsters were directly annihilated, leaving a clear swathe of emptiness amidst the writhing mass of creatures, an emptiness filled with fresh blood and corpses!!

The strike of the Ghost Dome King left the guards and Soul Pet Masters on the city walls of the inner city dumbfounded.

There are also numerous strong ones in Ice City who have reached Dominator Level, and when their Soul Pets could exterminate a thousand Ice Mountain Monsters with all their might, they seemed invincible in everyone’s heart; yet who could have anticipated the existence of a being capable of slaying ten thousand enemies with a single sword strike in this world!

“Is this really the Ghost Dome King??”

“I’ve journeyed from afar and heard that above Dominator Level, there is Immortal Level; could it be that this is the power of the Immortal Level!”

“Yes, if Ice City had one or two creatures of such caliber to defend it, what does it matter if Ice Mountain Monsters number in the millions?”

At this moment, the people of Ice City, in their panic and despair, saw the timely arrival of the Ghost Dome as a godly being, with one earth-shattering sword strike giving everyone hope for life!

Chu Mu and Mu Qingyi each landed in the inner city, standing in a high place, with Mu Qingyi speaking telepathically: “Who is the city master? I am Mu Qingyi, I need to understand the current situation in Ice City.”

“Who is Mu Qingyi?” A young general asked in confusion.

“You don’t recognize the Female War Goddess Mu Qingyi, it’s her who has come!”

Mu Qingyi’s reputation in the New Moon Land was exceedingly high. This time she, along with Chu Mu, appeared, and in recent years, she was seen dealing with various sudden events, holding a most respected and adored position in the hearts of the people as the Female War Goddess, and her Heavenly Maiden Palace frequently appeared in cities affected by disaster, providing emergency aid.

Now with Mu Qingyi’s arrival, those who knew of her reputation breathed a sigh of relief.

However, people were also worried, with hundreds of thousands of Ice Mountain Monsters spanning Glacier Land and countless more monsters wandering outside the city, could Mu Qingyi alone help everyone fend off these creatures?

The city master of Ice City was a very young-looking woman, her skin as pale as snow, pure and beautiful as if carved from ice and snow.

This young female city owner quickly flew to the top of the City Tower, giving a simple salute to Mu Qingyi.

Mu Qingyi saw the haggard face of the young female city owner and imagined that this disaster must have exhausted her greatly.

However, given that the city had managed to survive such a disaster and Mu Qingyi saw that about half of the population was within the inner city, it seemed that this female city owner had indeed done her utmost to protect the city.

“How many defense forces does the city have?” Mu Qingyi asked.

“50,000 regular army, and another 50,000 are self-organized by the Soul Pet Masters within the city, though there may be some disarray in their command, there are still some experts among them,” the city owner replied.

“How many Dominator-level powerhouses are there?” Mu Qingyi inquired.

“Including myself, only forty,” the city owner answered.

“Forty?” Mu Qingyi slightly furrowed her brow.

On their flight over, Mu Qingyi and Chu Mu sensed that among the Ice Mountain Monsters, there were many above the Dominator Level as well. Dominator-level Ice Mountain Monsters could cause fatal destruction to the city’s defense, and without corresponding Dominator-level individuals to contend with them, the city’s defenses would quickly be destroyed.

“We sent an urgent letter to Wanxiang City twenty days ago, I estimate it should have arrived half a month ago, and it was sent directly to King Chu,” said the female city owner, looking at Mu Qingyi.

The city owner, named Bing Li, actually harbored some resentment in her heart.

She had predicted early on the outbreak of this disaster and had a severe premonition, specially sending a distress letter to Wanxiang City, insisting it be delivered personally to King Chu because she felt that perhaps only King Chu’s strength in New Moon Land could resolve this matter.

But time passed, and there was no response.

The military strength in Snow City was limited, and with the disaster being of World Dynasty level, Snow City couldn’t possibly protect Ice City either.

She was dissatisfied, wondering why, despite sending the distress letter and guessing it would arrive after the royal wedding, no one took it seriously?

Even if King Chu couldn’t come personally because of his wedding, why didn’t he send someone to defend? Could the King disregard the life and death of his subjects for his own nuptials?

This resentment had been hidden in City Lord Bing Li’s heart for many days now, as she constantly witnessed people dying within her city.

“Are you blaming us?” Mu Qingyi easily discerned the tone in Bing Li’s voice.

“I wouldn’t dare.” Bing Li lowered her head, and though her words were deferential, her indifferent eyes betrayed her true feelings of immense resentment to Mu Qingyi.

“What if it is true!” At this point, several generals standing behind Bing Li couldn’t hold back any longer and spoke out.

Their eyes were bloodshot, no one knew how many days they had been without rest.

They understood that the city lord was reluctant to openly criticize these rulers for their negligence, but they themselves couldn’t swallow their anger.

“Over twenty days ago, we sent out an emergency missive. After it reached Wanxiang City, why was there no response? At that time, the Glacier was only beginning to crack, and not so many Ice Mountain Monsters had emerged.”

“Yes, if Wanxiang City had taken this seriously earlier and dispatched experts to defend, so many people wouldn’t have died. Could it be that everyone in the entire city was all too drunk at the wedding to care about the lives and deaths of us in these remote areas?” The generals spoke with simmering indignation.

Bing Li turned around and glared at the several generals, signalling them to shut their mouths.

Even if they held these emotions, there was no need to voice them openly, especially when a Dominator-level expert like Mu Qingyi had personally come. What right did they have to speak up?

“He is King Chu. If you have any complaints, take them up with him directly.” Mu Qingyi pointed to Chu Mu beside her and spoke indifferently.

City Lord Bing Li and the generals were taken aback, looking at the silent Chu Mu with shock on their faces.

They were dissatisfied and grieved for those who had died, angry at Wanxiang City for their indifference to the crisis. Yet, they never would have imagined that King Chu himself was standing right in front of them!

Chu Mu and Mu Qingyi had come together; Chu Mu’s silence had led them to subconsciously assume he was just an attendant of Mu Qingyi…

“We deserve to die.” Bing Li and the generals immediately knelt down.

Their earlier words were a clear offense to a sovereign. Some things said behind someone’s back are mere complaints, but spoken to their face, they could amount to capital crimes of insubordination!

“Three things. First, I did not receive your urgent missive. Why, I will have you thoroughly investigate once you’re back.”

“Second, summon those 40 Dominator-level experts.”

“Third, this kingship was not bestowed by you, nor by myself. I’m a cold-hearted person, only concerned about the lives of those I care about. I haven’t taken anything from your land, so don’t think that it’s my duty to protect you.”

Chu Mu’s words were icy cold, his demeanor commanding even without him standing above them.

Upon hearing Chu Mu’s third point, the generals turned pale, lips quivering, daring not to say another word.

And Bing Li, the female city owner, quickly knelt down, her whole body nearly prostrate on the ground, beseeching, “I’m sorry, we should not have offended you. Please, save the citizens of Ice City.”

City Lord Bing Li knew she had indeed angered the sovereign, seeing no response from the other party, and dared not meet his icy eyes as she hurriedly said, “If you are willing to solve the crisis for our city, Bing Li is prepared to become your servant.”

The generals behind Bing Li froze in shock upon hearing the city lord’s offer.

Was City Lord Bing Li essentially bestowing herself to this young king?

“Are there not many survivors left in the Outer City and Middle City?” Chu Mu didn’t take their offense to heart.

Bing Li slowly raised her head and whispered, “They are scattered within the horde of monsters. We can’t even secure the Inner City, so we didn’t dare dispatch troops to rescue them.”

“I will leave the Ghost Dome King and the Demon Tree Warriors to help defend the Inner City, while Mu Qingyi will personally enter the battle. With 50,000 regular troops and 50,000 Soul Pet Masters coordinating the defense, the Inner City’s safety should not be an issue. I will rescue all the survivors in the Middle City and Outer City,” said Chu Mu.

Hearing this, Bing Li was overjoyed.

Her own brother was among those trapped in the horde of monsters, but as the city lord, she dared not risk the safety of the entire city’s citizenry to mount a rescue, a chief source of her resentment.

She knew that even if rescuers arrived, her brother would surely have perished among the monsters, as no one dared to plunge into their midst to carry out a rescue.

Now, with King Chu setting out to save them, with his power, he could definitely move freely amongst the monsters. Grateful that her brother might be saved, Bing Li was overwhelmed with gratitude and continued to kowtow in thanks.

“Get those 40 Dominator-level individuals over here,” said Chu Mu, waving his hand, feeling it somewhat inhumane to have such a pure and snowy lady continue kneeling and thanking him like this.

“Yes, Bing Li will see to it right away!” Bing Li got up and quickly dispatched messengers to summon the Dominator-level powerhouses.

The generals behind Bing Li remained silent, still not daring to speak; Chu Mu’s presence had stifled them, nearly stopping their breath. For the first time, they realized that even the mere words of a person could be frightful! (.)
