My strength increases by one percent every day; I can destroy stars with my bare hands.

"Lord Ye, the remaining men are all gathered at the Tiangang Sect. How should we attack?"

The rebel forces wiped out a large number of the city's fighting force, and the surviving forces all fled to the Tiangang Gate, ready to fight to the death.

"Gather all forces and launch a full-scale attack on the Tiangang Gate."

Ye Wuchen loudly ordered that everyone be captured in one fell swoop.

Yan Yuanlong frowned and reminded him, "Lord Ye, the Tiangang Sect has four Qi Refining Realm experts, and the Alliance Leader Duan Tian is only one step away from the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm. In addition, with forces like the Iron Fist Sect, it will be difficult for us to take them down quickly."

The Tiangang Sect has gathered a large number of powerful individuals from Anzhou City, with more than ten at the Gangqi Realm.

Although they have thirteen Qi Refining Realm experts, they may not have a chance of winning if it comes down to a life-or-death struggle.

Upon hearing this, Ye Wuchen frowned.

He had naturally heard of the Tiangang Sect, the most powerful gang in Anzhou.

Duan Tian was no ordinary person either, and he was not confident of defeating him.

After thinking it over, Ye Wuchen made a decision.

"Surround the Tiangang Sect and wait for the powerful figures from the Prince's Mansion to arrive."

The Prince of Fu's mansion had been planning to seize Anzhou for a long time. Ye Wuchen and his group were just the vanguard; more powerful figures were coming from behind.

"Yes, sir!"

The rebel forces, in alliance with Prince Fu's men, quickly surrounded the Tiangang Sect.

Their primary target was the Tiangang Sect, and they temporarily neglected the people in the city, which in turn allowed the people to escape a calamity.

Inside the Tiangang Gate, survivors from various factions in the city gathered together, each one extremely anxious and at a loss.

"Sect Leader Duan, the traitor and the people from the Prince of Fu's mansion could attack at any moment. How should we deal with this? You need to come up with a plan quickly."

Everyone turned to look at Duan Tian.

He was the strongest here, highly respected within the gang, and everyone looked up to him.

Feeling the expectant gazes of everyone, Duan Tian shook his head helplessly and bitterly.

"The traitors and the people of the Prince of Fu's mansion have taken control of the city gates, and the military camps have also been destroyed by them. We cannot fight our way out of the city and can only hold out for reinforcements."

Duan Tian was at a loss and could only take it one step at a time.

Upon hearing this, everyone was greatly disappointed.

Immediately, everyone's eyes turned intently to Liu Qingyuan, the governor.

"Lord Liu, why isn't Lord Du in the city to oversee things? Where is he now? When will he return?"

Only then did everyone realize Du Tianfeng's importance.

If he were stationed in Anzhou City, these traitors and the people of the Prince of Fu's mansion would never dare to act recklessly; they could only hide in the shadows like rats in a gutter.

"Ugh!"

Liu Qingyuan sighed and told everyone the truth.

"As you may not know, a great demon has appeared on the border of Liuyun County. Lord Du went to deal with it personally, and now he is likely in grave danger."

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, their souls seemed to explode with a "buzz," and the room fell into a deathly silence.

"What? A great demon has appeared in Liuyun County?"

"How could this happen?"

"It's over, we're finished."

"..."

After the deathly silence, everyone was filled with despair and wailing.

To be called a Great Demon, one must at least be a demon at the Profound Realm.

Du Tianfeng was only at the Qi Refining Realm. If he went to fight the Great Demon, he would likely have already died at the Great Demon's hands.

Without Du Tianfeng, they had no reinforcements and could only wait to die.

"No, we can't just sit here and wait to die."

"Since there are no reinforcements, let's take this opportunity to break out of the city."

"Fight your way out of the city and ask the garrison commander for help."

"..."

The crowd refused to submit to slaughter and were determined to fight to the death.

They still have the Anzhou army; as long as Du Tianhao comes to their aid, there is still a chance.

"Gentlemen..."

Liu Qingyuan's loud shout silenced the excited crowd.

Now that things have come to this, Liu Qingyuan no longer wants to hide it from everyone.

"The Prince of Fu has colluded with the Great Demon, and the Yunzhou army has already launched an attack on Anzhou. The garrison commander is too busy to help us."

Liu Qingyuan was the governor of Anzhou and knew the situation in Anzhou. The Anzhou army was struggling to protect itself and could no longer care about them.

Upon hearing this, everyone was utterly desperate and completely trapped in a hopeless situation.

"The Anzhou army cannot provide support, so we must fight our way out of the city to have any chance of survival."

With no one else able to come to their aid, they were determined to fight their way out and escape.

"boom!"

Suddenly, the earth shook violently, and the entire Tiangang Sect was shaken and uneasy.

"What happened?"

"Has the traitor arrived?"

"Go and check immediately."

"..."

The crowd rushed out of the main hall, their faces turning ashen, despair spreading like a tidal wave.

"Huff, huff huff huff..."

An evil formation soared into the sky, its scarlet barrier enveloping the entire Tiangang Sect.

A chilling wind howled, and some wronged spirits wandered within the formation, emanating a bone-corroding evil aura that sealed everyone off.

"Damn it, it's an evil formation."

"Oh no, we're trapped."

"Quickly think of a way to break the formation."

"..."

Everyone panicked and lost their composure.

Some cultivators rushed towards the barrier, trying to break the formation.

"Bang!"

"boom!"

"Thump!"

"..."

Their attacks landed on the barrier, but they were like mud oxen sinking into the sea, failing to create even the slightest ripple.

"careful."

Suddenly, the barrier erupted in attack, backfiring on the person who had attacked.

"puff!"

"what!"

"Well!"

"..."

The attacker had no time to dodge; his body was pierced by the dark, evil light, and his soul was shattered.

"Damn it, damn it!"

The crowd was furious, filled with fear and unease, and dared not make any rash moves.

"Everyone, let's join forces. I don't believe we can't break this evil formation."

A Qi Refining Realm expert stepped forward and raised his arm, attempting to gather everyone's strength to break the evil formation.

Many people's eyes lit up and they were eager to try, but Duan Tian objected.

"No, this evil formation is extraordinary. If we act rashly, we will only find ourselves in danger."

Duan Tian had amazing eyesight and could tell that this evil formation was not easy to deal with.

It can absorb the attacks of the crowd and turn them back on them; forcibly attacking it will only lead to falling into the evil cultivator's trap.

"Am I just supposed to surrender like this?"

"How can we escape if the evil formation isn't broken?"

"Can I just stand by and do nothing, and wait to die?"

"..."

Some people are so emotional that they have lost their minds.

"Since it's a formation, it must have a core. Once we find the core, we can break the formation."

These words brought everyone to their senses and helped them regain their composure.

"Let's find the core of the formation first, then we can discuss how to break it."

The group stopped rushing to attack and instead began to observe the evil formation, searching for its core.

"How naive!"

Looking at the actions of the people in the formation, Ye Wuchen and the others sneered.

Trying to break through the formation is a pipe dream.

As the two sides confronted each other, the people in the city finally learned what had happened.

"Many forces within the city have betrayed us, turned against us, and, in collusion with the Prince of Fu's mansion, have already taken control of Anzhou City."

"The city gates have been taken over by traitors, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

"How will these traitors and the Prince of Fu's mansion treat us?"

"..."

The people were filled with anxiety and fear, and everyone was worried about the future.

In times of chaos, the most vulnerable are undoubtedly the common people.

Even a tiny splash of water from above can be a devastating disaster for ordinary people.

They were powerless to resist; their lives were not in their own hands.
