Chapter 471: Chapter 221: Chen Xuan! Here to Break the Formation

It wasn’t that his title of City Lord lacked weight.

His title carried weight, his strength was formidable, and the various factions were indeed afraid of Feng Wuji.

But the problem was that Feng Wuji was now in a life-or-death situation.

The various factions were uncertain about the future and didn’t want to get blindly involved, which was why Feng Wuji found himself unable to mobilize them.

Under normal circumstances, if Feng Wuji gave an order, who among them would dare to disobey?

Only now did they dare to deliberately make excuses.

But now, with Chen Xuan’s entry, everything had changed.

This was like a snowball effect; the momentum would only grow and grow.

So you were just hesitating, thinking you could keep waiting?

But now most of them have followed Chen Xuan. Are you still going to hesitate?

If you keep hesitating, there won’t be a piece of the pie for you when it’s time to carve up the territory.

Besides, so many people have put their faith in Yama Chen. You’re still having doubts?

Then take your time doubting.

...

Below.

Wuji Mountain.

The Nine Heavens Elder, who had just moved here with his disciples, soon received a message, and his expression changed in alarm.

Before he could even process it, he saw brilliant streaks of light traversing the distant sky.

They were like lightning tearing through the night, their powerful fluctuations rippling out and alarming everyone for miles around.

"So many experts!"

The Nine Heavens Elder looked up, his expression one of utter shock.

’Chen Xuan’s ability to rally others is terrifying!’

’There must be at least six or seven hundred Outer Saints here, right?’

As an expert of the Dharma Realm, the Nine Heavens Elder had naturally received invitations from both the Jiang family and Feng Wuji.

But just like everyone else, he had chosen to wait and see.

But now!

’What the hell am I waiting for?!’

’Chen Xuan himself has entered the fray.’

’And he’s brought so many experts with him.’

’How could Feng Wuji possibly lose now?’

’Even if they lose, it’s no big deal. With Chen Xuan’s absurd growth rate, he’s bound to come back and turn the tables eventually.’

"Disciples, all of you, with me!"

The Nine Heavens Elder let out a loud cry and shot into the sky, leading his disciples in pursuit of the distant lights.

His disciples’ hearts surged with excitement.

They were already shocked beyond belief.

"Hahaha, Young Hero Chen! Do you remember me? I am the Nine Heavens Elder, and I am willing to lend you my aid!"

His booming laughter arrived long before he did.

"Oh? The Nine Heavens Elder?"

Chen Xuan stopped and smiled. "Not long ago, I had your disciple to thank for pointing me in the right direction."

"As it should be, as it should be."

The Nine Heavens Elder chuckled sheepishly.

"Very well. Since you’re willing to help, I’m happy to have you. And don’t worry—if we do run into a real crisis, I will find a way to resolve it!"

Chen Xuan smiled.

"Thank you, Young Hero Chen! Thank you!"

The Nine Heavens Elder was deeply moved.

Of all the people following behind him, Yama Chen had chosen to speak only to him.

This was what it meant to be given face.

’Do you think I, the Nine Heavens Elder, have survived in the Dark World for so many years for nothing?’

’See?’

’Yama Chen has given me plenty of face. What more is there to say?’

"Disciples, follow me! Let’s go!"

The Nine Heavens Elder shouted with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, Master!"

His seven Outer Saint Level disciples immediately joined the ranks.

The Nine Heavens Elder, for his part, fell in line behind Chen Xuan.

The massive group set off once more.

At this very moment.

The mountain lords and grotto lords from the Grotto Heavens were completely dumbfounded, each marveling in disbelief.

’Chen Xuan’s reputation isn’t just known in the Red Dust World; it’s even greater in the Dark World.’

’Could he really attract so many experts to his side in the Dark World on the strength of his name alone?’

They were becoming increasingly aware of the weight behind the name "Yama Chen."

It was no exaggeration to say that after this crisis, the entire shallow Dark World would have to show respect at the mere mention of Yama Chen’s name.

They were also immensely glad they had decided to follow him from the start.

If they hadn’t come along, they would have had no idea just how vast Chen Xuan’s influence had become.

’So his reputation already echoes throughout the Dark World. Is this the source of his confidence?’

Red Lotus’s mind churned as she thought to herself.

But in the next moment, confidence returned to her eyes.

’Someday, I’ll be like that too!’

The group continued to streak through the sky.

The spectacle grew ever larger, ever more terrifying.

By the time Chen Xuan arrived near Qianling City with his followers, the powerful shockwaves from their presence had already spread for countless miles.

Countless factions in every direction had been alerted.

The splendid radiance was so brilliant it could be seen clearly for hundreds of miles around.

...

「Within Qianling City.」

For the past two days, Feng Wuji had been at his wit’s end. The situation had deteriorated to an unimaginable degree.

Nearly the entire region west of Qianling City had defected.

All of them had joined the Jiang family’s side.

Of course, while they called it the Jiang family’s side, it was really those beings from the depths of the Dark World pulling the strings.

If not for their meddling, the Jiang family wouldn’t have dared to try something like this, not even if you gave them ten times the nerve.

And even if they had, no one would have dared to join them.

But now, with the backing of those beings from the deep Dark World, they had all banded together, turning Qianling City into the new front line.

He had already activated the City Defense Array.

Now, the battlefield five thousand li outside the city was a scene of utter chaos and slaughter.

Experts from both sides were being thrown into the fray like dumplings into a pot...

On his end, he was constantly using his Communication Jade Pendant to summon reinforcements.

Unfortunately, very few actually answered his call.

He had already fought his way through the battlefield three times...

The only reason he had returned now was to activate the ultimate weapon his master had left behind, no matter the cost.

If he didn’t use it, the front line would undoubtedly collapse.

’Damned bastards! They’re all just waiting, wanting to see if I can hold on. They deserve to die, they all deserve to die! If I fall and the beings from the deep Dark World seize this realm, your fates will be a thousand times worse than mine!’
