Chapter 409 Catastrophe Descends!
Chapter 409 Catastrophe Descends!
Autumn Wind Garden.
As the hour of Hai approached, the three people in the courtyard looked at the shooting star that was gradually disappearing in the sky and exchanged glances.
Dark figures slowly descended into the courtyard, kneeling in unison. "Reporting to Master, Wen Qifeng of Qingli Academy has left the city."
"Reporting to Master, Cai Zhongxi of Hanxi Auction House has left the city!"
"Reporting to Master, Lan Jing of the Taiqing Sword Sect has left the city!"
.........
The dozen or so messages were all about the departure of the leaders of the major forces in Thousand Water City.
One of the pale-faced men looked up at the sky, fiddling with a string of glass beads in his hand, about to say something, when he heard a nearly arrogant voice.
"Hahahahahaha!"
"Hahahaha!"
"It's a success! It's a success! Hahahaha!"
A woman dressed in black, surrounded by black mist, appeared in the sky above the courtyard. Her face was filled with madness, and a strange purple mark appeared between her eyebrows!
The pale-faced man frowned.
Why has her aura completely changed?
The woman looked at the dark red stone in her hand with ecstatic joy, "With you, my master will surely succeed!"
The light on the horizon caught her attention. Lou Miao looked up, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes, which then turned into fervor.
"Finally... it's starting!"
She lowered her eyes, looked at the three men in black robes at her feet, and said coldly, "Now, we can make our move."
Lou Miao stretched out her hand, and the Devouring Demon Disc disappeared into the sky. She also threw the dark red stone into the Devouring Demon Disc.
In an instant, the heavens and earth trembled!
A black barrier appeared instantly, enhanced by dark red patterns, enveloping Thousand Water City within it.
At the top of the barrier, a surging, vast black beam of light suddenly struck the ground, causing a violent earthquake!
The appearance of the black mist seemed to awaken something, as the eerie green fog spread and the ground cracked apart!
Countless tentacles of various colors emerged from it, piercing the hearts of those who were asleep and unable to escape!
"what!"
In an instant, bones wither and flesh vanishes!
Those who were awake witnessed this bizarre scene and, having no time to heed the rumors of monsters eating people at night, scattered in terror!
"Run!"
"Help!"
The eerie, dark green mist quickly attracted the attention of various forces, especially the Hanxi Auction House, which activated its protective array almost immediately upon sensing something was amiss!
The azure array emitted layers of light, so clearly visible in the night!
"Ahhh! My cultivation level!?"
"Who is behind this in the shadows!?"
"Why has my cultivation level fallen to the Spirit Sect realm?!"
"Yours dropped too?"
"The same to you?"
"I can't open my storage bag either!"
"How could this happen? My spirit pet can't get out either!"
Countless terrified voices rang out. The city of Qianshui at night seemed to have become fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered at any moment.
Strange things are rampant in Qianshui City.
Some people simply tripped and fell, only to find themselves climbing up dense, dark green vines from their ankles, eventually becoming 'tree people' in terror.
Someone tried to burn these strange things, but was tormented to death by the insane fog!
At this moment, Qianshui City has become a living hell!
An elderly man dressed in a magnificent emerald green robe appeared solemnly on the roof of the trading building, followed by Ju Ning.
"Ju Ning, if anything happens later, you must ensure the safety of the eldest young lady and the second young lady!"
The woman's expression was rather unpleasant.
"Fifth Elder, I just went to the two young ladies' room, but they are not there!"
The Fifth Elder suddenly turned his head, "Not here?"
Ju Ning nodded.
The Fifth Elder looked somewhat anxious.
"The city of Thousand Waters is fraught with danger after dusk. Why did the two young ladies leave without saying goodbye?"
Normally, if they were leaving under normal circumstances, the two young ladies should have informed them. But given the current situation...
Where will they go?
"Ju Ning, go and tell Yuan Feng and the others to go out and search! Make sure they bring the two young ladies back safely!"
If they discover something has happened in the city, they will definitely return to the auction house!
Only here can they receive the greatest protection.
"Yes!"
Ju Ning accepted the order and turned to disappear into the night.
At this moment, the Second Elder, Feng Shuo, came to his side and transmitted his voice, "Fifth Brother, can you still use your contracted beast and the ring space?"
The fifth brother, Song Hu, shook his head, looking worried.
“This time the other party must have come prepared. I just checked and found that not only has their cultivation level regressed to the Spirit Sect level, but their ring space and storage bag are also unusable.”
"Even contracted beasts cannot be summoned!"
"Second Brother, Qianshui City is in grave danger!"
After the incident in Yunbi City, Cai Zhongxi led more than half of the powerful figures in the auction house to investigate, leaving only the Fifth Elder and the Second Elder to remain at the auction house.
Given what has happened, it's hard not to suspect that this is a ploy by the person behind the scenes to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
And the purpose...
Song Hu had an inexplicable sense of impending crisis.
Fang Shuo glanced at the street under the night sky and said in a deep voice, "No matter what, the two young ladies have special identities and cannot be allowed to stay here and risk their lives. We need to find a way to get them out of here!"
Clearly, he also sensed an unusual crisis.
