Chapter 335

In front of Sheng Cheng City Gate.

Under a precise Triumph Gate, people constantly entered the city.

Each person passing through would have a hidden light sweep over their body.

But no abnormality appeared.

Until another group entered the city, the Triumph Gate's light actually gave off strands of black aura.

Seeing this, the nearby Holy City Guards on duty quickly stepped forward and subdued the panicked crowd.

Gu Han narrowed his eyes and asked doubtfully,

"Could this be for checking Black Tide aura?"

The people of Lu Chui Zhen could only guess from injuries whether they had been infected by Black Tide aura.

By comparison, Sheng Cheng's technological prowess was obviously far greater than that of Lu Chui Zhen.

After about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, it was finally the turn of the Lu Chui Zhen people to enter the city.

But after seeing those previously captured by the Holy City Guards infected with Black Tide aura, many Lu Chui Zhen people swallowed nervously, feeling some apprehension.

Priest Bai Qi stepped to the front of the line and said in a low voice,

"Don't worry, Lord Savior Heir can clear Black Tide aura; even if we detect Black Tide aura on ourselves, the Lord will surely help us!"

"But if we fail to detect it, and it suddenly erupts one day, it will be too late to regret!"

The people of Lu Chui Zhen, upon hearing this, all nodded, cheered themselves on, and walked toward the Triumph Gate.

The Holy City Guards glanced at Bai Qi in surprise.

Sheng Cheng indeed has a Savior Heir capable of healing the Black Tide aura.

But the Black Tide is not merely ordinary monsters that are completely mindless and only know frenzied slaughter.

There are also some who can retain their reason, have abandoned humanity, and sided with the Black Tide.

Therefore, to prevent assassins of the Black Tide from killing that Savior Heir, this news has never been leaked.

It has been limited only to the upper echelons of Sheng Cheng and the Holy City warriors who have lived and died together.

How could these people from the remote Heixia Yu know of that esteemed person's existence?

Could it be that someone leaked the news due to loose lips?

The people of Lu Chui Zhen advanced at extreme speed.

Sheng Cheng's inspection of those entering the city is not strict; as long as one can pass the Triumph Gate's inspection, one can enter the city swiftly.

The Holy City Guards are stationed here merely to suppress those infected with the Black Tide aura, lest they flee and cause chaos.

But when it was Bai Tie and the other blacksmiths' turn to enter the city, the Triumph Gate emitted a sharp alarm.

"What's going on?"

"The Triumph Gate has never made such a commotion before!"

The Holy City Guards' faces instantly changed, they drew their weapons, and surrounded Bai Tie and the others.

Feeling the strong oppressive pressure emanating from the crowd, Bai Tie and the others' faces grew extremely solemn.

How could they possibly have the Black Tide aura on them?

The leading Holy City Guard waved his hand, his face stern, and said,

"Someone, seize these lawbreakers!"

Bai Ka seemed to think of something, hastily taking out that supreme primal stone from his bosom,

"This primal stone can absorb the Black Tide aura; what the Triumph Gate detected must be this!"

Seeing this, Bai Tie and the others also took out the supreme primal stones that Gu Han had previously given them for protection.

"What a bunch of traitors who have sided with the Black Tide, actually bringing such filthy things, trying to sneak into Sheng Cheng!"

The captain of the leading Holy City Guards narrowed his eyes and immediately let out a cold snort,

"If not for the Triumph Gate crafted by Lord Jia Nu Si, we would have indeed fallen to your scheme today!"

"Holy City Guards, execute these people on the spot!"

Bai Tie and the others instinctively drew their weapons, intending to resist the Holy City Guards.

Seeing this, the Holy City Guards, without courtesy, prepared to strike.

"Those who dare cause trouble in Sheng Cheng must be tired of living!"

The mayor of Lu Chui Zhen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, hurried forward, and stepped in front of the Holy City Guards and Bai Tie and the other blacksmiths,

"My lord, my lord, please wait a moment!"

The Holy City Guard merely gave the mayor of Lu Chui Zhen a cold glance,

"Step back now, and I can still exempt you from suspicion of colluding with the Black Tide."

He held a long spear, its sharp tip aimed at the old woman,

"Otherwise, I will treat you all the same."

"Anyone who colludes with the Black Tide and wishes to wreak havoc upon Sheng Cheng has only a dead end!"

The old woman swallowed, her heart filled with great fear, but after a moment's hesitation she still chose to step forward,

"My lord, among our traveling party there are two Savior Heirs, one of whom is skilled at healing the Black Tide aura."

Before her words had even finished, the Holy City Guards had already moved against Bai Tie and the others.

However, perhaps out of concern that the battle's aftermath might harm the surrounding civilians,

these Holy City Guards, though ruthless in their strikes, did not cause a large-scale disturbance.

"That lord has been traveling with us, fought alongside the blacksmiths against the Black Tide, and can vouch for us that we have absolutely no collusion with the Black Tide!"

The leading Holy City Guard originally did not take the mayor of Lu Chui Zhen seriously.

But when he heard that among the two Savior Heirs accompanying them, one could heal the Black Tide aura, he immediately raised his hand,

All of you, stop!

At the same time, the Earth Guards who were directing the earth beasts to unload cargo also stepped forward one after another, explaining,

When we previously brought back the Lu Chui Zhen team, we heard that there were two Savior Heirs in the team.

The captain of the Holy City Guards Furrowed Brow,

I don't know where the two Savior Heirs are now.

Gu Han and Bai Lin stepped out of the ranks, standing before Bai Tie and the others, facing off against the Holy City Guards from a distance.

Don't... don't hurt Uncle Bai Tie and Brother Bai Ka.

Bai Lin looked at the hostile gazes of the crowd; although she was a little afraid, she still mustered her courage and shouted.

Upon seeing Bai Lin step forward, the Holy City Guards were all startled, and they also began to whisper among themselves.

Such a young Savior Heir?

Inside Sheng Cheng, only the teachers of the Savior Heirs look about the same age as this little girl, right?

Keep your voice down; can you call that little girl that? If she really is a Savior Heir, do you still want your head?

The leading Holy City Guard's expression was solemn,

Sirs, we lack the ability to identify Savior Heirs; please pass through the Triumphal Gate, and the gate itself will determine your identities.

If you truly are Savior Heirs, we are willing to apologize for our previous rash actions.

In other words, if your identities are false, then what awaits Bai Tie and the others is likely only a dead end!

Then if we succeed, can we let everyone go?

Bai Lin's bright eyes stared fixedly at the Holy City Guards, fearing they would rebut.

The Holy City Guard gave Bai Lin a deep look, then shook his head firmly.

Whether I can let them go is not up to me.

As the Holy City Guard's words faded, Bai Lin's spirit visibly waned.

Don't worry, Linlin, I won't leave everyone unattended.
