Chapter 441: Meeting the City Lord
Half an hour later.
Wang Jianqiang walked out of the Array Department, followed by several Array Masters with excited expressions on their faces.
"Get lost!"
"Is the City Protection Array something just anyone can touch?"
"Repair the array? Can you take responsibility if you break it?"
"Get as far away as you can!"
Hearing the blunt words from the people behind him.
Wang Jianqiang frowned, "I have already said, I am a Sixth-tier Array Master. If you do not believe me, you are welcome to test me."
Hearing this, the several Array Masters sneered one after another.
"Test? If we had to let everyone who came by test us, wouldn't we be worked to death?"
"Furthermore, every Array Master carries an Array Disk they refined themselves. You cannot even take out a single Array Disk you made yourself, yet you dare to call yourself an Array Master?"
"Get lost quickly, don't waste our time here."
Hearing the sneers of these Array Masters, Wang Jianqiang felt somewhat helpless.
Not long ago.
He had come to the Array Department to recommend himself, claiming he had the ability to repair the City Protection Array.
At first, those Array Masters in the Array Department were very excited.
Afterwards, they asked Wang Jianqiang to take out an Array Disk he had refined to prove his cultivation in the Array Path.
But he had indeed never dabbled in the Array Path before, so naturally, he did not have an Array Disk he had refined himself.
Upon seeing that Wang Jianqiang could not even produce a single Array Disk he had refined himself, those Array Masters all flew into a rage.
They concluded that Wang Jianqiang was a fraud and drove him out without giving him the slightest chance to prove himself.
Seeing that these Array Masters could not be reasoned with, Wang Jianqiang left the Array Department for the time being.
Walking on the street, he frowned deeply.
He did have some Array Diagrams on him.
But the highest were only Fourth-tier; even if he refined them, they would not be able to prove he possessed the ability to repair the City Protection Array.
This was difficult now.
He looked up toward the outside of the city.
With his Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze activated, the battlefield outside the city came into view.
The other three battlefields were still able to hold on.
The City Lord's situation, however, was already bad to the extreme at this moment.
Under the siege of three Ninth-rank Will Cultivators, even if she burned her Spiritual Power, she could not gain the slightest upper hand.
What was even worse.
Having burned her Spiritual Power for a long time, her foundation was nearing collapse.
Her power already showed signs of waning!
"Linglong, you are finished."
"You actually dared to burn your Spiritual Power for such a long time; today, even if we do not kill you, you will not survive."
Xiaoyue Daoren looked at Linglong, a sneer appearing on his face.
Linglong's complexion was still as pale as paper at this moment; she glanced at Xiaoyue Zhenren indifferently.
Then she swept her gaze over Yaoguang Xianzi and the woman with ice-crystal long hair.
She did not say a word.
She slapped her palm toward the purple Jade Pendant hovering in front of her.
A flash of purple light appeared instantly in front of the three of them.
The three were just about to strike together to block it.
A burst of violent power suddenly erupted from the purple Jade Pendant.
The expressions of all three changed drastically.
Without the slightest hesitation, they turned and fled.
Boom!
The next moment.
Dazzling purple light exploded, instantly swallowing the three of them.
A moment later.
The purple light dissipated.
Three blood-stained figures appeared.
"You crazy woman!"
Purple light flickered continuously on Xiaoyue Daoren's body, and every time the purple light flickered, he could not help but cough up a mouthful of blood.
After finishing his words.
He had no intention of staying at all, turning and shooting away into the distance.
At this moment, he had already suffered heavy injuries.
A large amount of violent force still remained within his body.
If he could not deal with it as soon as possible, it would inevitably cause great damage to his foundation.
After Xiaoyue Zhenren left.
Yaoguang Xianzi and that Ninth-Order Will Stage woman looked at each other.
They also flew away at the fastest possible speed.
Their condition was much the same as Xiaoyue Zhenren's.
Their bodies were filled with violent purple power, and they needed to return as soon as possible to deal with it.
After the three of them left.
Linglong let out a long sigh of relief, and immediately after, she spat out a mouthful of blood, her aura weakening rapidly.
Whoosh!
Just at this moment.
A stream of Cold Mist suddenly shrouded toward her.
"City Lord, watch out!"
Amidst a low shout, a Yinse Changqiang crossed the sky like a silver dragon, shattering the mist.
The next moment.
A flash of silver light.
A youth in silver armor appeared, gripping the spear in his palm.
"City Lord, return to the city to rest first; leave this to us."
The silver-armored youth looked at Linglong, and before his voice had even faded, he charged out again to join the other three Vice City Lords in besieging the dragon beast.
Linglong's gaze swept across the endless Beast Tide.
Her brows furrowed.
The number of demonic beasts was too great, truly endless.
And in front of the Beast Tide, there were only a thousand or so Cultivators forming a defensive line.
If it came down to a battle of attrition, the ones who would be exhausted first would definitely be the Cultivators of Wenxian City.
Therefore, although this defensive line appeared relatively solid.
It was actually at a disadvantage.
Thinking of this.
She sighed.
She had pushed herself to the limit, and any Cultivator who had Manifested Will could easily kill her now.
She was powerless to do anything about the coming battle.
The only good news was.
Those three Ninth-rank Will Cultivators had also been heavily injured by her.
They would be unable to join the battle for a short time.
This meant that Wenxian City could hold out for a few more days.
It was just that.
Her foundation was now half-destroyed; not only could her cultivation not recover, but her life was also nearing its end.
Yet the injuries of those three Ninth-Order Will Stage Cultivators from Outside the Realm were not fatal.
Once the other side descended again.
The battle situation would collapse completely.
"Now, I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate."
Linglong sighed.
Her figure turned, and she flew into the city.
Seeing Linglong fly to the city wall and sit down cross-legged, Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted.
He flew straight toward the city gate.
On the city wall.
Linglong's eyes were tightly shut, silently regulating her breath.
But her injuries were too severe.
After a period of regulation, not only was there no effect, but her physical condition had actually worsened.
"This should count as being at the end of my rope, right?"
"At most three days, and I will surely die."
Linglong slowly opened her eyes and sighed.
She simply gave up on this futile effort.
Just as she was preparing to stand up, a burst of shouting suddenly reached her ears.
"Who goes there? Halt!"
She looked over instinctively.
Not far away.
Two guards were blocking the path of a youth.
That youth was a stranger.
Immediately after.
She suddenly noticed the Spirit Token at the youth's waist.
Her expression shifted.
A student of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace?
Just at this moment.
The young man's gaze suddenly bypassed the two guards and landed on her, "City Lord, I have a way to treat the injuries on your body."
Hearing the young man's words, Linglong's expression froze in surprise.
"Audacious, how dare you make a scene in front of the City Lord!"
"If you disturb the City Lord's recovery, you will deserve death ten thousand times over!"
A look of anger flashed in the eyes of the two guards as they looked at Wang Jianqiang.
"Wait~"
Just as the two were about to make a move, a voice suddenly came from behind them.
The two guards turned around.
Only then did they discover that the City Lord had already stood up at some point.
