Chapter 1525: Fellow Daoist, Help (Second Update)

At this moment!

A middle-aged man in the City Lord's Mansion was leading a team of men in black, standing outside the secret chamber with extreme awe!

When that withered old man walked out, the middle-aged man and the team of men in black all knelt down in unison!

"Greetings, City Lord!" The group shouted in unison, their voices trembling.

Hai Chao lowered his head slowly, looked down at the middle-aged man kneeling before him, and asked: "Who killed my son?"

"Reporting to the Old City Lord, Young Master Hai Xun was harmed by a force called the Exploding Heaven Gang!" In the middle-aged man's eyes, Hai Xun wasn't even qualified to be the City Lord; only the one before him was qualified to lead them.

"Exploding Heaven Gang? What kind of force is that?"

The middle-aged man was stunned upon hearing this: "Reporting to the City Lord, this subordinate does not know. Currently, only two people and one dog have appeared. One of the youths is only at the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, yet has the strength to fight an Immortal Venerable expert!"

"A Great Luo Golden Immortal, able to fight an Immortal Venerable?" Hai Chao shook his head and laughed upon hearing this: "Nowadays, any pig or dog dares to call themselves an Immortal Venerable."

After saying this, the smile on his face faded, and he said coldly: "That piece of trash actually died at the hands of a Great Luo Golden Immortal ant!"

"Old City Lord, please calm your anger!" The middle-aged man hurriedly kowtowed and shouted.

Hai Chao didn't reply, slowly looking up at the sky.

After a moment, he said faintly: "Since I have come out of seclusion, let that matter begin. This time, I have great confidence."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression changed instantly, his heart filled with wild joy!

Was it finally going to begin?

The accumulation of three generations of the City Lord's family was finally about to take that step!

We might be about to witness the birth of a new Immortal Emperor!

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man's body couldn't help but tremble with excitement, his face filled with excitement, and he shouted in response: "This subordinate obeys!"

"Go!"

Hai Chao waved his hand, signaling everyone to retreat.

If his son Hai Xun hadn't died, he wouldn't have chosen to come out of seclusion so early; he might have waited another few decades.

But now that Hai Xun was dead, he didn't want to wait anymore!

Otherwise, with no one to hold down the fort in Hailin City, some things might inevitably change.

"It's only been a few thousand years, how has the Hai family's fortune weakened so much?"

Hai Chao muttered, silently turning around and walking toward the room, his figure gradually fading and disappearing.

Soon, the middle-aged man quickly gathered thousands of men in black in the City Lord's Mansion.

Except for him being an Immortal King, the rest of the men in black were all Great Luo Golden Immortal experts!

Night gradually fell!

The thousands of Great Luo Golden Immortals within the City Lord's Mansion broke into smaller groups and dashed out in unison.

The middle-aged man also took a small team, circled out from the back door, and disappeared into the night.

Their goal was just to capture some Imperial Physician Immortals and bring them back to the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion!

With their cultivation, this almost had no difficulty, but what they were doing had to be concealed; they couldn't disturb the world, and they couldn't leak any information, so they could only proceed secretly.

Several hours later, large groups of men in black returned one after another, bringing a large number of Imperial Physician Immortal cultivators, constantly sending them to the dungeon.

"How many people are there?" A middle-aged man dashed over from afar, looked at one of the men in black, and asked in a deep voice.

"Reporting to Steward, there are already three thousand!"

"Three thousand?" The middle-aged man was instantly furious upon hearing this: "A bunch of trash."

The man in black hurriedly knelt on the ground, trembling: "My Lord, please forgive me, I will pass this down and let them speed up."

"Since you know, why don't you act quickly! Can you bear the consequences of making the City Lord wait? If you continue at this speed, when will you be able to gather the number of one hundred thousand?"

The middle-aged man reprimanded in a deep voice, but suddenly paused and turned his head abruptly to look behind him.

"Who?"

Suddenly!

A light "clanging" sound came from the street behind.

"Chase!"

The middle-aged man's expression sank, and he waved his hand to order.

Their conversation had actually been overheard by an outsider!

"Yes, My Lord!"

Several men in black hurriedly responded and quickly chased toward the source of the sound!

At this time, in the quiet night street.

A cultivator was running around in a panic, fleeing for his life.

At this moment, he was filled with regret.

He had only seen that middle-aged man and found him somewhat familiar, so he lingered there for a while, but he didn't expect to hear such explosive information!

He knew very well that if he were caught now, he would definitely die on the spot!

Run!

Must run quickly!

However, he was only a Great Luo Scattered Immortal, but behind him were more than a dozen Great Luo Golden Immortals.

So he could only run frantically in the alleyways, relying on this terrain to have a chance to escape death.

If he flew up directly, he feared that within a moment, he would be caught up by those behind him and killed to silence him.

However, after running through several streets in succession, he found that those men in black behind him hadn't been shaken off, but were getting closer and closer!

"It's over, it's over."

The cultivator's heart was instantly in chaos, extremely panicked, and intense unease and fear assailed his heart.

He rushed out of the alleyway quickly, dashed onto the main street, and was about to shout for help.

Suddenly, a "clinking" sound rang in his ears, as if someone was tinkering with something.

But to the cultivator, this commotion was like a straw to save his life.

"Someone, there's someone nearby!"

He was filled with wild joy and rushed toward the source of the sound.

However, just as they dashed past the street corner, they saw, under the pitch-black night, a strange combination consisting of two people and one dog, sneaking around outside a shop, secretly tinkering with something.

Looking closer!

Good guy!

These two people and one dog were actually prying open the shop's door-protection array.

The key was that this shop... seemed to be an industry under the City Lord's Mansion, right?

"Teacher Duan, this won't work. It's just a door-protection array, how can you take out a knife to hack at it? This is the behavior of a reckless man." That dog whispered.

"You don't know anything. This old man is testing whether this door-protection array is hard enough. If even a knife can't break it, it means the level of the door-protection array is not low, and there must be good things inside!" The lecherous old man also scolded.

"You guys are too unprofessional. I told you long ago that climbing through the window is best, but you insisted on entering through the front door. This door-protection array takes too much time to crack." The young man frowned.

"Eh, wait, Brother Que, someone seems to have discovered us." Suddenly, the dog whispered, while turning its head to look behind.

The cultivator finally reacted, startled, and was about to say something.

Suddenly, the young man said in a high voice: "What a good array! I didn't expect that while strolling through Hailin City at night, I would see such a wonderful array. Let's observe it quickly and see if we can learn anything."

The lecherous old man beside him nodded in deep agreement, sighing: "Indeed, just by observing it, this old man feels that the bottleneck in the Dao of arrays is about to break through!"

"Yes, yes, this array is too awesome, truly an eye-opener." The dog also responded with an exaggerated expression.

The cultivator was dumbfounded.

Damn it, are these two people and one dog treating him as a fool?

Who doesn't know you are stealing? You can actually lie with your eyes open like this, observing someone's door-protection array in the middle of the night to learn?

Who are you trying to fool?

No, can't expose them, life is important right now.

Thinking of this, the cultivator opened his mouth and shouted miserably: "Fellow Daoists, help!"
