Gods: Start with Goblins

Chapter 722 Xiang Liu

The man exuded a powerful aura, like a beast ready to attack. His eyes were bloodshot, flashing with bloodthirsty light. He was wearing silk and satin, but there was a hint of anger and anxiety. His steps were vigorous and powerful, and every step seemed to step on people's heartstrings.

Along the way, many people saw this figure and gave way on their own initiative, their eyes full of awe and fear. They knew that this person was definitely not a good person, and his appearance was often accompanied by blood and killing. And this time, his target seemed to be those innocent people from the sect...

Zhao Tian led his men to quickly surround the post station, their eyes were full of murderous intent and indifference. The people from the sect were trapped in the middle, their eyes were full of despair and helplessness. A brutal massacre was about to take place, and the root of all this was just because of the unwarranted hatred and prejudice...

In the dim and slightly depressing hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhao Tian stood respectfully in front of a stern-looking adult in a black robe. The adult's eyes were as dark as the abyss, as if he could see into the deepest secrets of people's hearts. Zhao Tian's face was full of indignation and determination, his fists were clenched, veins bulged, and it was obvious that his inner emotions had reached the edge of an explosion.

"Don't worry, sir. I'll go today. I've long hated these humans. I feel like they are just a bunch of hypocritical guys who don't deserve to stay here!" Zhao Tian's words were filled with anger that was difficult to conceal, and his eyes flashed with deep disgust and disdain for the human race. His words were like a sharp dagger, piercing the sir's heart, but also made the sir's eyes more satisfied.

The lord nodded slowly, a grim smile on his lips: "Okay, well said. Your determination and courage are exactly what I admire. Then I'll wait for your triumphant return!" His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, pressing on Zhao Tian's heart, making him more determined.

Zhao Tian straightened his chest, his eyes flashing with determination: "Don't worry, sir, we will succeed! Those humans who dared to trespass into our territory must pay the price!" His tone was full of confidence and determination, as if he had foreseen the scene of himself leading his men to capture all those humans in one fell swoop.

After saying that, Zhao Tian turned around and strode out of the hall, followed closely by a group of men who were also angry and aggressive. They were like a group of hungry wolves, ready to launch a brutal hunt on those innocent humans.

At the same time, in the post station not far from the City Lord's Mansion, several sect members were sitting together, their faces showing some fatigue and worry. They had just arrived in the city and wanted to take a short break, but they didn't expect to feel an inexplicable dangerous aura quietly approaching.

"What's going on?" a man asked in a low voice, his eyes flashing with vigilance and uneasiness.

"I don't know, but I feel something is wrong." The other man frowned, his eyes searching around for possible threats, but he found nothing except the dim lights and the silent night.

However, while they were discussing and at a loss, Zhao Tian had already arrived quietly with his men. They appeared at the entrance of the post station like ghosts and surrounded the people from several sects. Zhao Tian had a ferocious smile on his face, and his eyes were full of murderous intent and indifference.

"Humph, I finally found you!" Zhao Tian snorted coldly, his voice piercing like ice, "You humans dare to trespass into our territory, you must accept our punishment!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of several sect members turned pale. They knew that they were doomed this time. However, at this moment, a figure flashed across the night sky like lightning and instantly appeared outside the city lord's mansion. The man exuded a powerful aura, and his eyes were as hot as flames, as if they could burn all evil and darkness. His appearance made the originally tense atmosphere instantly more complicated and subtle...

In the afterglow of dusk, pedestrians hurried along the street, but they were all attracted by a fierce figure. The man was tall, with bulging muscles, as if every inch of his skin contained infinite power. He exuded a powerful aura, a unique temperament mixed with majesty and anger, which made people feel awe involuntarily. His eyes were scarlet, like burning flames, revealing endless anger and determination. He was wearing the finest silk and satin, and the luxurious fabric shone softly in the sun, but it also revealed a hint of anger that was not easy to detect, as if it would burst out at any time.

Along the way, many people saw this figure and stopped and made way for fear of angering this guy who looked difficult to deal with. They whispered and speculated about who this aggressive noble was and how he dared to be so arrogant in the city.

This noble man was the former brother of the city lord, and a general who accompanied the city lord in his battles and made countless contributions. His name was Li Feng, and he was one of the city lord's most capable assistants and a well-known figure in the city. At this moment, he rushed to the city lord's mansion with an anxious look on his face, his heart filled with uncontrollable anger and anxiety.

"I have something to see the city lord! Hurry up and let me in!" Li Feng rushed all the way and finally arrived at the gate of the city lord's mansion. He shouted loudly, his voice full of unquestionable majesty. He put his hands behind his back and clenched them into fists, as if he was ready to swing them at any time to smash all obstacles to pieces.

Seeing this, the guard Zhao Tian was startled. He knew Li Feng's identity and status, and also understood the temper and character of this escort general. However, due to his duty, he had to bite the bullet and step forward to stop him: "General Li, what are you doing... The city lord is meeting guests at the moment, I'm afraid it's not convenient for him to see you."

Hearing this, Li Feng frowned and became even more angry: "Zhao Tian, ​​you should know what the consequences will be if you stop me! The city lord and I have a lot of connections. You are stopping me here. Do you know what crime you have committed?" His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, pressing on Zhao Tian's heart.

Zhao Tian's face changed slightly, but he still stood firm at his post: "General Li, I didn't mean to stop you, but the city lord does have something important to do. Why don't you wait for a while, and I will inform you as soon as the city lord is done."

Li Feng didn't buy it at all. He took a step forward, staring at Zhao Tian with his scarlet eyes: "Wait? I, Li Feng, can wait, but can the crisis in the city wait? I have urgent military information to report. If it is delayed, can you bear the responsibility?" Zhao Tian was shocked when he heard it. He knew that what Li Feng said was true, and he also understood that the situation at the moment was indeed urgent. So, he gritted his teeth and decided to make an exception: "Okay, General Li, please wait a moment, I will go to inform the city lord."

After saying that, Zhao Tian turned around and ran quickly into the mansion, praying in his heart that the city lord could finish the affairs at hand as soon as possible and come to see the angry escort general. Li Feng stood there, his eyes like torches, staring at the door of the city lord's mansion, as if he wanted to stare through it. His heart was filled with anxiety and expectation, looking forward to fighting side by side with the city lord again to resolve the impending crisis together.

Outside the towering Demon Clan Hall, the afterglow of the setting sun shone obliquely, interweaving the golden light with the dark atmosphere inside the hall, forming a strange and solemn scene. However, this tranquility was broken by a sudden noise, just like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

"What are you doing making so much noise over there! This is the main hall, not a place where you can do whatever you want. What's the point of making so much noise?" A dignified and slightly angry rebuke echoed in the main hall like thunder. The speaker, dressed in gorgeous demon costumes, stood tall, with his hands behind his back, and walked steadily towards the source of the sound. His face was filled with displeasure, and his eyes revealed his adherence to order and rules.

The man who was making the noise was the former brother of the city lord, General Li Feng. He was covered in dust, obviously rushing from afar, his face full of anxiety and eagerness. Facing this sudden accusation, he did not back down, but stiffened his neck, with a bit of unwillingness and stubbornness in his voice: "I have urgent military information to report. If it delays the cultivation of the important people inside, you can't take responsibility! Even if you are the city lord's subordinate, you can't stop me so indiscriminately!"

Zhao Tian, ​​the guard of the Demon Clan's palace, has the most traditional blood of the Demon Clan flowing in his body. His pride and self-esteem are like the armor on his body, hard and cold. He glanced at Li Feng coldly, and a sneer of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Humph, even if you were the city lord's brother, you have been driven to a remote place now? Coming back without permission is already a mistake, and you still want to run wild here! Do you think you are still the escort general of the past?"

Li Feng's face darkened upon hearing this, and a trace of pain and helplessness flashed in his eyes. He knew that his experiences over the years had long become a laughing stock among the demons, but he had never given up his pursuit of justice and his loyalty to the city lord. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: "Zhao Tian, ​​I am not here to fight for power, but to report urgent military information that concerns the safety of the demons. If you stop me again and delay important matters, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Zhao Tian was not moved at all. He shook his head coldly: "Humph, what kind of urgent military information can be compared to the cultivation of the big shots inside? If you really have an urgent matter, go and ask the city lord for instructions first, and come back after getting permission. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Just as the two were in a stalemate, a low and majestic voice suddenly came from the hall: "Who is making noise outside?" The voice seemed to contain endless power, shocking everyone present.

Zhao Tian's face changed slightly, and he quickly bowed and saluted: "Reporting to the ancestor, it is... it is the city lord's former brother Li Feng. He said he has urgent military information to report."

As the words fell, the door of the hall slowly opened, and a figure slowly walked out. The man was tall and exuded a majestic aura. He was the ancestor of the demon clan. His eyes swept over Li Feng and Zhao Tian, ​​and finally stopped at Li Feng: "Oh? Li Feng, since you have urgent military information, why don't you come to me directly? Don't you know that this is the important place of my demon clan, and no one is allowed to disturb it easily?"

Li Feng was shocked when he heard this, and he immediately knelt on the ground: "Grandfather, please understand, I really have no choice but to do so. Please listen to me in detail."

The old ancestor nodded slightly, signaling Li Feng to stand up and speak. Zhao Tian secretly thanked himself for not rashly offending the people around the old ancestor. He stood quietly aside, listening to Li Feng's report on the military situation, and in his heart he couldn't help but admire and respect this former escort general.

In the dark and solemn atmosphere of the Demon Clan Hall, Zhao Tian's words were like a sharp blade, mercilessly stabbing at the former Escort General Li Feng. "So what if he was the former Escort General? He is nothing in his eyes, and now he dares to shout in the hall? If he delays people, he will not apologize to others even if he is killed." Zhao Tian's voice was cold and arrogant, and his eyes were full of disdain and contempt for Li Feng.

Li Feng's anger was instantly ignited when he heard this. He thought of the humiliation and injustice he had suffered over the years, the days when he was sent to a remote place and was ostracized, and now he was still despised when he returned. His eyes seemed to be spewing fire, and his fists were clenched tightly together, as if he was ready to swing at any time to knock Zhao Tian to the ground.

"Zhao Tian, ​​do you know what you are saying?" Li Feng's voice was deep and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a heavy weight. His eyes revealed strong anger and unwillingness, but also mixed with a hint of helplessness and compromise. He knew Zhao Tian's status and strength in the demon clan, as well as the tense and delicate relationship between the two. If he really confronted Zhao Tian head-on, it would probably end in a lose-lose situation.

Zhao Tian looked at Li Feng's expression of trying hard to suppress his anger, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud. He knew that his words had touched Li Feng's pain point and achieved the effect he wanted. However, just as he was about to continue to mock Li Feng, he suddenly found that Li Feng's eyes became unusually firm, as if he had made some kind of decision.

"Zhao Tian, ​​although I am down and out now, I am not a soft persimmon that can be bullied." Li Feng's voice was low but full of power. "I came back this time because I have urgent military information to report. If your obstruction really delays the important matter, both you and I will be blamed."

Zhao Tian was shocked when he heard this. He realized that Li Feng's return this time was not a bluff, but he really had something important to do. (End of this chapter)
