Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

"The flames of war have engulfed the city!"

Liangshan infused the earth with divine power, causing the ground to crack open and erupt with pillars of fire. Five chariots emerged from the cracks, grinding fire wheels into the ground and forming a wall of fire that blocked the poisonous vines.

"Take this opportunity and contact Yu Chen immediately!"

"Yes……"

Liangshan thought the fire wall would stop the poisonous vines, but to their surprise, the vines pierced through the fire wall and even burst into flames...

He didn't know that Jiang Ciyou's guardian deity was the Yan Emperor, so this little bit of fire was no challenge for her at all.

Liang Shan gritted his teeth; at this point, he had no choice but to fight these guys to the death...

On the other side, Red Boy's battle situation was not good. Although he was two minor realms higher than Li Moxuan, for some reason, it seemed that every move he made could be seen through!

The person in front of me seems to be able to predict my next move and react in time. Could his guardian deity be Di Ting?

Red Boy forced Li Moxuan back with a single spear thrust. "Hey, why don't you summon your guardian spirit? Fighting you is pointless, I want to fight him!"

"My guardian angel doesn't want to fight you..."

Are you scared?

"I'm afraid I might accidentally kill you..."

"How arrogant! Wait until I turn you into a hornet's nest, then let's see if he'll come out!"

Meanwhile, Yu Chen, the leader of the Earthly Fiend Mercenary Group, also received the distress call and arrived at the Golden Dragon Mercenary Group's temporary base in a fit of rage.

Of course, he wasn't stupid either. He also brought over the leaders of the other mercenary groups and had his men spread the news to prevent himself from being silenced...

"Where's Wang Shengan? Tell him to come out!"

The Golden Dragon Mercenary Group's underlings were in a real bind! They woke up to find their leader missing, and couldn't contact him even with the divine decree. It was truly bizarre!

After searching for a long time without finding it, they were hesitating whether to report it to the Lord of the Underworld when Yu Chen stormed in angrily...

"Lord Yu, what's wrong?"

"You're asking me what's wrong?"

Yu Chen angrily said, "Didn't I just say that he's not as good at judging situations as you? And now your Underworld wants to destroy us? You're even more unreasonable than the Tang Clan!"

Chapter 361: Both bad at the game and loves to play

"Boss Yu... are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"

The person who spoke was named Li Qi, Wang Sheng'an's close follower, and he was the one who was most anxious after Wang Sheng'an disappeared...

"What's wrong with you? Your army of the dead from the underworld has already besieged my Ferocious Fang Ridge!"

Yu Chen barged into the house. "Where's Wang Shengan? Did he do something wrong and then hide?"

"Our young master... he's gone out on business..."

At this point, it's impossible to say that Wang Shengan has disappeared, otherwise things will become even more complicated...

Yu Chen searched around but couldn't find anyone. He gritted his teeth and said, "So you're not going to give me an explanation?"

Li Qi was completely bewildered. "Boss Yu, we really don't know anything. Should we ask the Lord of the Manor for instructions?"

"By then, you'll have leveled Fierce Fang Ridge. I'm not playing with you anymore. You can just slowly surround Thousand Machine City!"

After saying that, he walked out. He didn't have much time to waste; he had to hurry back to defend his base, or his stronghold would be gone...

Seeing him leave, the other mercenary leaders exchanged bewildered glances. "Do you really think the Underworld is going to destroy Old Yu just because he said a few words?"

"Probably not?"

"But Lao Yu's angry expression didn't seem like he was faking it!"

A mercenary group leader named Qian Deng spoke up: "My Tianxiao Valley is not far from Xiongya Ridge. Should I send someone to scout out some information?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than his divine command lit up. "Boss, a huge, menacing army of undead is heading our way. What do we do?"

"..."

Qian Deng was completely stunned and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean? Aren't they at Fierce Fang Ridge?"

"Boss, it seems that Fierce Fang Ridge has been wiped out..."

"Depend on!"

Qian Deng, holding the divine decree, grabbed Li Qi, who was about to notify the Lord of the Underworld, and asked, "What do you mean? Does your Underworld also intend to destroy our Tianxiao Valley?"

"This... must be a misunderstanding!"

"You've got a misunderstanding! Aren't undead armies the only rare things that exist in the Underworld? Who are you trying to fool?"

"Brother Qian, calm down. Our people from the Underworld will be here soon. How about we ask them again then?"

Qian Deng was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what he meant. "Damn, you Underworld are planning to annex us, right?"

"No wonder you used the pretext of besieging the Tang Clan to gather us all together. So you wanted the Immortal Old Monster to wipe us all out, right?"

"I...I won't play with you..."

Qian Deng conjured up a whole string of conspiracies and schemes, which terrified the leaders of the other mercenary groups. Seeing him abandon Li Qi and run away, they hurriedly followed.

"Old Qian, come along! I'm going back too!"

"Yes, yes, we can look out for each other..."

"..."

Li Qi was stunned by what he saw. Even he himself doubted whether the Lord of the Manor really had this idea... In any case, let's report the situation first!

Soon, Wang Renqing, the Lord of the Underworld, learned of the news. "What? Sheng An has disappeared?"

"Lord, we searched the entire vicinity but couldn't find him. However, we did find traces of a Divine Explosion Talisman exploding near Thousand Machine City. He was most likely captured by the Tang Clan!"

"But we've heard there are at least two immortal-level beings in Thousand Machines City, so we don't dare go in to investigate..."

"I see!"

Wang Renqing took a deep breath. “The Eighth and Ninth Halls should arrive soon. Follow them into Qianji City and make sure to bring Sheng An back safely!”

"In addition, we have already made contact with the Sword God. Let's see if we can find any living members of the Tang family and bring them back to me!"

"Yes……"

Li Qi hesitated for a moment, "Lord of the Manor, do you really intend to annex these smaller forces?"

"This matter has nothing to do with the Underworld. I have already sent the Fourth and Sixth Courts to investigate. You don't need to worry about the rest!"

"Yes, I understand..."

At this moment, in Thousand Machine City, Shi Mo was instructing Lin Haiyuan in cultivation. "Boy, for the sake of your guardian deity, I can guide you, but I will not accept you as my disciple, understand?"

Ru Shou was the grandson of the Yellow Emperor, and I was also in the Yellow Emperor's camp, so I thought I would give some guidance to the younger generation!

"I understand, senior!"

Wang Shengan, standing nearby, was completely dumbfounded. He had just seen a large group of people suddenly appear in Qianji City, and they were deploying their defenses in an orderly manner...

But where did all these people come from?

"Cuckoo-"

Wang Shengan's stomach was growling loudly; he hadn't eaten for almost two days...

Here, you can have this!

Lin Haiyuan pushed his lunchbox in front of Wang Shengan, "I need to cultivate, I don't have time to eat, you eat it!"

Although Wang Shengan was hungry, he still stubbornly said, "I won't fight with a child for food..."

"Don't worry, I'm not letting you eat for free!"

After spending some time together, Lin Haiyuan realized that Wang Shengan was not a bad person; he had a lot of passion, but he was easily led astray to do bad things.

Simply put, he's bad at the game but loves to play...

"I've heard that you hold a high position in the Great Thousand God Realm. If we really fail to defend Thousand Machine City, I hope you can spare the lives of Brother Wunian and Sister Mei, and let them go..."

Wang Shengan thought for a moment, "Okay, I promise you. Even if you don't say anything, I won't let them lay a hand on two defenseless children!"

He ate with a clear conscience. He wanted to talk to Lin Haiyuan about his glorious deeds, but seeing that he was cultivating in peace, Wang Shengan tried to strike up a conversation with Shi Mo instead.

"Hey, uncles, why are you guarding this place? Wouldn't it be better to escape and find somewhere to hide?"

"Do you think I want to stay here?"

Shi Mo sighed. "Do you know who brought that vengeful swordsman here?"

Wang Shengan looked surprised. "Could it be you?"

"That's right..."

Holy crap!

He gave Shi Mo a thumbs up, "Then you are a true hero!"

"Hero? What hero? Do you think I wanted to bring him here? That guy held a sword to my throat and forced me to bring him!"

"You didn't see the carnage in Thousand Machine City, the corpses flying everywhere, and a bunch of kids sitting helplessly in a corner. I'm heartless, though, I don't think there's anything wrong with it..."

"But Jiang has been living here for a year, and she felt guilty seeing that scene, so I helped her to prevent her from having her cultivation path blocked because of this!"

Of course, this was just Shi Mo's own speculation. He didn't know whether Jiang Ciyou felt guilty or wanted to continue to win over that kid...

"Uncle, you're not from the Tang Clan... then which faction are you from?"

Wang Shengan didn't want to continue the discussion and instead asked, "That girl looks about my age, and she's already reached the Immortal realm. She shouldn't be without a sect or faction..."

"You're a man, so you shouldn't be from the Illusionary Dream Heaven. Could you be from the Thunder Domain... No, the Thunder Domain is currently the most ruthless force in besieging the Tang Sect..."

"Kid, the world is wider than you think. In some people's eyes, the open and covert struggles between your four major forces are nothing more than petty squabbles!"

The Great Thousand God Realm, Southern District, Divine Sword Temple.

The place was in ruins, overgrown with weeds and covered in dust. Jian Wushuang came to the Taoist temple alone.
