Chapter 2266: Chapter 2261: Demon Abyss Ghost Markings

Tang Ming could only use the words "complete victory" to describe this battle.

After the battle ended, it was discovered that, except for the fallen Skull Superior who used the Forbidden Technique and Wang Buqun who was slain by Hu Erleng, all the others were captured, including the Zeng Family brothers.

"I think there seem to be too many captives."

Fox Bachang looked at Tang Ming and then said.

"No, developing a city requires population, every person can contribute to a city’s growth. The current West Desolation City is already empty, West Continent City is about to rise, and many places need people to work."

Tang Ming shook his head and then said.

"Although what you say makes sense, feeding so many people requires a lot of food, and the Spirit Tree Plain has not been developed yet. Moreover, even if the Tower Master of the West Desolate Tower does not concern himself with worldly affairs, he will interfere in this matter."

Fox Bachang sighed deeply; mentioning the West Desolate Tower Master indeed made her lose some of her confidence.

Tang Ming nodded and said: "I know, the Tower Master of the West Desolate Tower is very powerful, and he’s been in West Desolation for so many years, he surely has feelings for West Desolation City. However, you overlooked one thing."

"Oh?"

Fox Bachang looked at Tang Ming in surprise.

How long has Tang Ming been in West Desolation City, and he can understand the Tower Master of the West Desolate Tower; claiming that she overlooked something, it indeed sounded a bit incredible.

"What? You don’t believe me? Then let me ask you, the Tower Master cares most about dealing with the demon from Demon Abyss, he is here to deal with the demon from Demon Abyss, so I’ll make him the Tower Master of West Continent City, specifically handling the matter of dealing with the demon from Demon Abyss."

Tang Ming’s lips curved slightly.

Just then, behind Tang Ming, a hoarse laugh was heard: "Then it’s settled."

Tang Ming and Fox Bachang turned swiftly, and an elder stood there.

Tang Ming’s eyes narrowed, while Fox Bachang bowed slightly and said: "Tower Master."

"Hmm. Actually, I had visited Fox Spirit Mountain once before. The City Lord said you were the demon masquerading as someone else, but upon first sight, I noticed you look remarkably like Lady Tang. Identical to her."

The West Desolate Tower Master’s lips curved slightly.

Originally, the wife of Tang Mosheng once saved the life of the West Desolate Tower Master, and he was friends with Tang Mosheng.

However, he knew that even if he spoke up, it would not make a difference. Instead, it might lead the old demon in West Desolation City to believe there was some association between himself and Tang Ming.

Thus, the West Desolate Tower Master did not appear nor make any changes.

This time, the West Desolate Tower Master came to protect Tang Ming’s life, unexpectedly finding that Tang Ming and Hu Jiusheng had invented this thing called a cannon.

In West Desolation, Spirit Stones are abundant, and now the land can be purified. He could almost foresee that even if demons attacked West Desolation again, they could return triumphantly.

"Tang Ming, your medical skills are exceptional, aren’t they?"

Guo Cunhou quickly approached Tang Ming with Guo Muye accompanying him.

Tang Ming raised an eyebrow and said: "Yes, what’s wrong, Advisor Guo?"

Guo Cunhou’s gaze first fell on the West Desolate Tower Master: "Tower Master, you are...?"

"Nothing, I am friends with Tang Ming’s parents. I stand with them."

The West Desolate Tower Master waved his hand, indicating that Guo Cunhou could continue.

"Great, I didn’t expect Master Lin Hao to be friends with City Lord Tang Ming’s parents. Please come with us to take a look; I suspect the City Lord might have connections with the demon from Demon Abyss."

Guo Cunhou revealed a statement that shocked Lin Hao, Tang Ming, and Fox Bachang.

Lin Hao’s eyes narrowed, and he said: "Yes, let’s go and see."

Tang Ming and the others followed Guo Cunhou to the West Desolation City garrison who previously fought at the Fox Tail Mountain Range.

Demon Patterns appeared on these garrison members, as well as on the Zeng Family brothers.

Zeng Qiang, because he was wounded earlier by Hu Sanqiu, had become significantly weakened, leading the Demon Patterns on him to spread severely.

"Help me, save me."

Zeng Qiang’s hoarse voice made Tang Ming raise an eyebrow.

Previously, upon meeting Zeng Qiang, he was quite majestic; his current state was completely beyond Tang Ming’s expectations.

"What’s going on here?"

Tang Ming looked to his side at Guo Cunhou.

Guo Cunhou sighed deeply: "According to them, when the second cannonball hit the Protection Shield, Skull Superior took out a very special Immortal Artifact, which drained all his body’s energy, including life, eventually turning him into a real skeleton."

"Oh, these Demon Patterns are also caused by that Magic Treasure, and you’re thinking the City Lord has connections with the demon clan from Demon Abyss because of this."

Lin Hao furrowed his brows, although he did not favor the old demon from West Desolation City; he was assigned by the Jiulong Dynasty, reportedly a direct descendant of a certain Tower Master.

A direct descendant of a Tower Master having connections with the demon clan from Demon Abyss would imply that a Tower Master within the Jiulong Tower also has connections with the demon clan from Demon Abyss.

"No, in the small study next to the City Lord Mansion’s bedroom, there is a statue of the Demon Monarch; my brother and I have seen it. He must be one of the demon clan; otherwise, why would he relinquish military power, surely aiming for a mutual defeat between West Desolation and the Fox Spirit Mountain Range."

Zeng Qiang roared due to the pain from the Demon Patterns.

Tang Ming looked at the Fox Jiuzhe beside him, and Fox Jiuzhe took a deep breath and then said: "If I remember correctly, the supporter behind the old demon from West Desolation should be the Tower Master of the Dark Tower."

"It’s too dreadful. No, I have to return to West Desolation City."

The Tower Master of the West Desolate Tower, Lin Hao, took a deep breath and was about to walk out.

Tang Ming looked at Fox Bachang, and Fox Bachang nodded: "Senior Lin, we’ll go with you."

"Tang Ming, you stay here; you need to help treat these people’s Demon Patterns. Your strength is not robust. Going over there won’t be helpful."

Fox Jiuzhe pressed Tang Ming’s shoulder and disappeared alongside Lin Hao on the Fox Tail Mountain Range.

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on Zeng Qiang; he looked at the Demon Patterns on him, furrowed his brows, then took out an Elixir and handed it to him: "Take it, give it a try."

"What kind of Elixir is this?"

Zeng Qiang sniffed but did not place it in his mouth.

"If you don’t take it, let someone else have it. Don’t forget you’re my prisoner and have no right to inquire about these things."

Tang Ming snorted and then said.
