Chapter 1559 - 1534: Luo Kaixuan's Dream

Ba Tianhu's corpse was being controlled by Yang Xiao's spiritual power, suspended in mid-air.

Thousands of guards around saw Ba Tianhu's corpse, each of them utterly shocked.

As one of the three overlords of the Central Continent, Ba Tianhu had occupied Sky Tiger City and ruled for decades. Just a few days ago, he set out to attack Dark Web Headquarters, still full of grandeur. How could he suddenly become a corpse?

"Ba Tianhu is dead!"

This was the first thought in the minds of all the guards of Sky Tiger City.

The next thought was,

"What should we do?"

Yang Xiao manipulated Ba Tianhu's corpse to float slowly in the air, allowing more guards of the city to see it firsthand and confirm he was truly dead.

Mr. Master, Xing Zhe, Second Master, and others followed behind Yang Xiao, moving slowly, remaining vigilant against ambushes.

In a moment, rumors of Ba Tianhu's death spread throughout Sky Tiger City, enveloping the entire city in panic.

Yang Xiao and the others landed in the square of the inner city of Sky Tiger City, placing Ba Tianhu's corpse on a large rock in the square.

Tens of thousands of guards and citizens gathered around the square.

Yang Xiao spoke loudly:

"Brothers and sisters of Sky Tiger City, fellow countrymen,

I am Yang Xiao, the City Lord of the City of Hope. Ba Tianhu has been killed by me, and his army defeated. I am here today to take over Sky Tiger City and all the cities ruled by Ba Tianhu.

No matter if you are willing, there is no room for negotiation on this matter."

The entire scene fell into silence, everyone looking at Yang Xiao, unsure of how to respond.

The crowd parted to create a path, and dozens of tall guards stepped forward, led by Luo Kaixuan, the Deputy City Lord of Sky Tiger City.

Luo Kaixuan walked into the center of the square and stood about forty or fifty meters away from Yang Xiao.

"You are Yang Xiao?"

"Yes, and you are?"

"I am Luo Kaixuan, Deputy City Lord of Sky Tiger City."

"Ah, Deputy City Lord Luo, Ba Tianhu is dead. What are your thoughts?"

Upon hearing the news of Ba Tianhu's death, Luo Kaixuan felt a burst of tension, followed by excitement.

Luo Kaixuan, with cultivation at the Emperor Level Middle Stage Realm, was always a reliable assistant to Ba Tianhu, helping to rule dozens of cities.

Compared to Think Tank Yuri, Luo Kaixuan had always been low-key, rarely offering constructive suggestions to Ba Tianhu or following other War Generals on campaigns. He didn't even qualify as one of the Five Tiger Generals.

Luo Kaixuan had always kept a low profile, playing the role of Ba Tianhu's gatekeeper, often called Ba Tianhu's shadow privately.

Ba Tianhu trusted him greatly, always leaving Luo Kaixuan to guard Sky Tiger City during external operations.

With Ba Tianhu dead, a strange thought suddenly sprouted in Luo Kaixuan's heart, so he came to the square.

"Yang Xiao, you killed Ba Tianhu and dare to come and take over Sky Tiger City. You really don't think much of us."

Luo Kaixuan then shouted angrily:

"Brothers, Yang Xiao killed our boss, he's our enemy. The boss treated us well, shouldn't we avenge him?"

With Luo Kaixuan's call to arms, thousands of loyal guards immediately shouted from the crowd:

"Avenge the boss!"

"Brothers, kill Yang Xiao."

"Yang Xiao has also killed many of our brothers; he's our enemy."

"We absolutely can't let Yang Xiao take over Sky Tiger City."

"Whoever brings Yang Xiao's head, Deputy City Lord Luo will reward them with a billion Crystal Disks."

"Brothers, charge!"

...

In the view of Luo Kaixuan and others, Yang Xiao and his six people daring to break into the inner city Defense Light Screen of Sky Tiger City was a death wish.

The city contained six Emperor Middle Level sword formations with immense power.

Luo Kaixuan waved his hand confidently, shouting:

"Brothers, avenge our boss Ba Tianhu. Whoever kills Yang Xiao, I will make them City Lord and allow them to choose any of the subordinate thirty-two cities. Charge!"

Around the square, over ten thousand guards listened to Luo Kaixuan's words and surged forward.

The ordinary citizens, seeing a fight about to happen, retreated backward.

A gigantic light emerged on Sky Tiger City Square; a sword formation had been activated.

Further away, five beams of light successively shot into the sky, they were the other five sword formations.

Luo Kaixuan was very confident that he would kill Yang Xiao and smoothly take over the thirty-two cities left by Ba Tianhu, replacing his position.

Mr. Master and others stood beside Yang Xiao,

"Yang Xiao, what should we do?"

"Hehe, it seems this battle cannot be avoided. I underestimated the strength of Sky Tiger City, with six sword formations, and Luo Kaixuan's Genetic Evolution Realm is not weak either,

It's just a shame for this beautiful square, which will need money to rebuild later."

Yang Xiao let out a long howl,

"Those who block me will die!"

His body soared into the sky, and he struck down a palm at the thousands charging forward.

Earthquake Skill!

"Boom!"

A booming sound, a gigantic palm print appeared in mid-air, carrying a brutally fierce killing aura, it descended instantaneously.

The guards charging forward suddenly felt their hearts sink; a breath of death surged into their chests.

Escape was too late; they forced themselves to keep charging.

"Boom!"

The gigantic palm print came down instantly, flattening the three to four thousand charging forward into meat paste.

Only Luo Kaixuan broke through the palm print, flying into the air.

Xing Zhe let out a howl, and punched forward.

Mr. Master's Ice Sword burst forth with a hundred-foot-long icy killing aura, slicing toward Luo Kaixuan.

Luo Kaixuan was initially stunned by Yang Xiao's power of that palm. As soon as he broke through, he found two fierce killing auras immediately appearing in front of him.

Luo Kaixuan felt things were amiss; he quickly activated the Defensive Light Shield to block Xing Zhe's attack and simultaneously used Instantaneous Movement to evade Mr. Master's killing aura.

"Bang!"

Luo Kaixuan's Defensive Light Shield was struck by Xing Zhe, showing dozens of cracks.

Mr. Master's icy killing aura swept past him, making him feel as if falling into an ice cellar, chilled.

Luo Kaixuan roared angrily, his body flashed, transforming into a colossal hundred-meter Nine-headed Flying Bird rising into the sky.

"Sizzle!"

The nine heads of the bird opened their mouths, spraying out nine large fire lines, each aimed at Mr. Master and Xing Zhe.

Mr. Master sneered,

"Foolhardy creature!"

His figure flashed; he transformed into a white light and instantly rushed above the Nine-headed Bird, gripping his sword with both hands and slashing down at the bird's massive body.

"Creak!" A sharp sound, a waterfall-like stream of extreme cold exploded out instantly, flying directly toward the Nine-headed Bird's body.

Wherever the extreme cold stream passed, white ice beads fell one after another, almost freezing the space.

The whole square felt a sudden drop in temperature.

Luo Kaixuan's Beast Soul Nine-headed Bird frantically flapped its massive wings, raising two gigantic Wind Blades, sweeping towards the stream of extreme cold.

"Crack!"

Mr. Master's stream of extreme cold met Luo Kaixuan's huge Wind Blades, freezing them entirely. A gigantic ice-sculpted Wind Blade appeared.

"Boom!" A gigantic ice block fell from the sky.
