After Qiu Shuijing left, Su Yun returned to Wenchang Academy and studied peacefully, making up for various basic knowledge. He also went to the Kendo Academy to learn swordsmanship from Li Muge. As a reward for being a private teacher, Li Muge could receive a reward of 150 baht per day.

Li Muge was extremely grateful. He could earn one Qinghong coin in ten days, which made him see his bright future.

But he didn't know that his sister Li Zhuxian spent three Qinghong coins every day to ask Su Yun for guidance in her practice.

"The surname is Su!"

The girl Wutong looked solemn. She suddenly called Su Yun and whispered, "I feel the devilish energy brewing in the southwest. Something big must have happened there!"

Su Yun was awed, and stood up and said, "The southwest is Chuanhe City, which is also one of the Seventeen States of Shuobei! This matter must be told to Lao Piao Boss and Shuofang Hou!"

Wutong said, "Shuao, go tell the old boss to inform the Marquis of Shuofang."

Outside the Gewu Academy, Jiao Shuao immediately slipped away.

Su Yun felt a little uneasy. After a moment, he suddenly saw a white crane soaring up into the sky in the academy. It turned out to be Taoist Xianyun who went to inform Marquis Shuofang.

On the other side, Marquis Shuofang received the news and made a prompt decision. He ordered the soldiers in the city to lead an army on the marquis's mansion's divine bird, Tianfeng, and rush to Chuanhe.

River City.

This city is not as glorious as Shuofang City. Shuofang City was built by Lou Ban. All the buildings in the city were made by Lou Ban and his disciples. Later, Lou Ban was summoned by the emperor to build the Eastern Capital and had no chance to build Chuanhe City.

But after Louban built the Eastern Capital, the art of architecture became a popular subject, and many spiritualists practiced the art of architecture and built buildings all over the country. As a result, Chuanhe City was repaired, and a new city was built.

Unlike Shuofang, Chuanhe's new city has thick and majestic city walls because it is close to the southwestern border, while Shuofang City has no city walls at all and is completely undefended.

Similar to Shuofang, most of the people living at the lower level in Chuanhe City are migrant workers, who are poor and destitute. The lower level is dirty and messy, and few upper-class people come here.

At this time, Chuanhe City was bustling with activity, and a team of ash-carrying trucks arrived at the bottom of Chuanhe City.

The rivers and streams do not produce ashes from the disaster, so ashes from Shuofang City are often transported here, so no one cares.

The team of ash-carrying carts arrived in the center of the long street. The leading driver jumped off the cart, cut the reins and the rope on the back of the mountain beast, and left quickly.

The drivers of other vehicles jumped off and did the same thing, leaving the ash trucks there one by one.

At first, no one on the street paid attention to these ash trucks, but the fact that they had not moved for a long time aroused people's curiosity.

At this moment, suddenly a ray of light fell from the sky. It was an arrow with magical power. It came whistling and hit the center of the road, and exploded with a bang!

The team of mountain beasts were frightened and ran wildly. Suddenly, the ash trucks on their backs fell down one after another and crashed to the ground!

In the car were pieces of black stone coffins, cut from the ashes of the robbery. At this moment, the huge black stone coffins fell from a great height to the ground, and were smashed into pieces one by one.

"Go and rob the ashes!" someone shouted excitedly.

People rushed towards the gray stone coffins. Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a gray stone coffin exploded. A dark figure soared into the sky with a whoosh, and spread its wings in the air!

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

One after another, the black stone coffins exploded, and gray monsters flapped their wings and flew out, with ashes flying everywhere.

The gray monsters in the air howled continuously, swooped down, grabbed the people who were running wildly, soared into the sky, and devoured their flesh and blood in mid-air!

There was chaos and turmoil in the streets.

Several black-clothed spiritualists rushed out, and took the opportunity to throw out several jade bottles, which smashed into the ashes. The jade bottles exploded, revealing calamity fire in the bottles. The calamity fire ignited the ashes, and the fire spread!

Shuofang City, Wenchang Academy.

In the evening, Master Ye Luo brought news from Chuanhe City, saying, "There are calamity monsters causing chaos in Chuanhe City, eating countless people. The demonic energy there is extremely heavy. The Marquis discussed with my father and plans to dispatch my father and the Ye family's border troops to provide support."

Su Yun frowned and asked, "If there is another place where a robbery monster is causing trouble, do we need to mobilize the city defense forces of other families?"

Young Master Ye Luo hesitated for a moment and was about to speak when the girl Wutong suddenly said, "There is evil energy rising from Wuyuan in the northeast. I'm afraid the Jiehui monster there will also stir up unrest!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly added: "There are also demonic auras coming from Yunzhong, Shoujiang, Yanmen, Wuwei, Hetao, Ruoshui, Xiutu and other places. It should be that the Jiehui monster is about to cause chaos there!"

Young Master Ye Luo was shocked and sat down dejectedly.

Shuofang City simply does not have such a large military force to support the other sixteen states in Shuobei!

If these calamity ash monsters eat too many people and become powerful, they will almost be great masters in the celestial realm, coming and going as fast as the wind and lightning, and can even shuttle through the calamity fire!

If the other sixteen states and counties are defeated, the Jiehui monster rebellion will break out in Shuobei and form an encirclement of Shuofang City!

If we divide our forces at this time, I'm afraid there will be no one in Shuofang City who can resist the seven great families!

Young Master Ye Luo murmured: "The seven great families, this is a very vicious move..."

Bai Yuelou said: "But the seven great families have not yet publicly announced their rebellion. It will be difficult to take action if the seven great families do not make any moves to rebel."

As night fell, everyone looked to the southwest and saw a light illuminating the night sky.

That light was exactly the light of the catastrophe fire.

Wutong sniffed and whispered, "Such a pure demonic energy... This demonic energy is almost reaching the north! I can't bear it anymore, I'm going to break through to the Yuandong realm!"

The demonic energy around her was constantly turbulent, and the demonic energy was shaking, becoming more and more terrifying. Suddenly, there was a cracking sound, and a chasm appeared behind Wutong, and the demonic energy gushed out from the chasm!

The natural chasm vibrated with a crackling sound, making a loud noise. The demonic energy inside surged, becoming more and more terrifying. Suddenly, the wailing of gods and ghosts came from the natural chasm, which was so eerie and chilling that it made people shudder!

"It's so comfortable, this devilish feeling is so comfortable..." the girl in red moaned.

Su Yun was startled and looked away into the distance.

"Marquis Shuofang, Zuo Pushe, and Saint Xue have been preparing for several months. They should have expected this day a long time ago, right?"

Su Yun suppressed the throbbing in his heart and said silently in his heart: "Since they expected it, they should have made preparations so as not to be caught off guard. However, their plans are all based on the premise that Mr. Shui Jing is still in Shuofang. Shui Jing left Shuofang..."

The corner of his eye twitched.

This day was an ordinary day, and everything happened very suddenly.

When night falls, the gray lights in the upper floors of the city light up, lighting up the cloud bridges and the towering buildings, illuminating the north.

On the five floors below the high-rise buildings in Shuofang City, live the lower-class people.

Everything was normal on the streets. From time to time, domestic waste was thrown down from the sky and hit the streets. Occasionally, the feces of mountain beasts fell down and hit everywhere.

Pedestrians walked hurriedly, covering their mouths and noses, passing under the eaves on both sides of the street. People living at the bottom of the society have long been accustomed to this. It is not until the second half of the night that someone will go to clean up the filth on the streets.

Some people came to the street and lit up the street lamps, which were dim. Some people also came to the light boxes with the lamps and lit up the shop signs.

The ape demon bartender pushed out the wine jar and deliberately scooped out a bowl of wine and poured it at the door of the store, letting the aroma of the wine spread and attracting customers.

The spider demon maids worked hard to wipe the windows on the street, making the clothes inside the glass windows look even more beautiful under the light. Several silkworm demon girls inside were whispering to each other, talking about the popular clothing styles this year.

Windows along the street were opened, and the aroma of vegetables and meat wafted out, dispelling the strange smell in the street.

There were also a few charming girls who pushed open the windows facing the street, naked, standing in the crimson light, posing and flirting.

In an inconspicuous corner, the manhole cover was pushed open and several rat demons came out. They had their faces covered and carried small bags on their backs, sneaking past in the shadows.

The lower world of Shuofang at night is the real human world, and the bustle here has just begun.

People who have worked hard all day will only have free time at this time to start their life today. As for the daytime, it is not life for them, but work.

Only at this time can the streets be filled with laughter and joy.

“Boom!”

A chariot carrying a mountain fell from the sky and crashed onto the street, startling a big man with a leopard head on the roadside. He meowed and climbed onto a lamppost, turning into a strange man with a leopard head and a human body, hugging the lamppost and trembling.

The pedestrians on the road couldn't help laughing, and some lawless monsters came forward to plunder some property. Although the upper world of Shuofang City was glamorous, there were often murders and vendettas, so no one knew what would fall from the sky.

The mountain-carrying beast is huge in size. If it falls from a great height, both the man and the beast will surely be smashed to pieces.

Some unemployed people would take this opportunity to search for some valuables from the corpses.

At this moment, there was suddenly another loud bang, and another mountain-carrying chariot fell from the sky, smashed onto the street, and broke into pieces!

"boom!"

The third chariot carrying the mountain fell down.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

The fourth, fifth, and sixth chariots fell one after another and smashed into pieces on the street. At this time, the expressions of all the people on the street were stunned. They stopped and stopped what they were doing, and looked up.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the sky above Shuofang City. One after another, the mountain-carrying chariots were thrown down from the cloud bridge in the sky by something. The people in the chariots screamed in fear. Some tried to jump out of the chariots, some climbed onto the roof. In horror, figures danced and fell from the sky, and were shattered to pieces!

The people at the bottom stared at the scene blankly, somewhat at a loss.

In the sky, there are monsters that look like the Jiehui monsters, destroying Shuofang City!

"Haruka-senpai!"

A young man's voice was heard, and just as everyone was dumbfounded, a silver dragon was seen leaping like flying, jumping between the buildings, suddenly soaring into the air and catching a young man.

The young man was riding on the dragon's back, holding a wooden box in his hand. The wooden box suddenly changed, and the tall buildings on both sides suddenly shook. The windows and doors of the buildings suddenly moved automatically, making clanging sounds, and began to close!

In an instant, one building after another from top to bottom turned into sealed boxes!

The gray monsters flew in the air and crashed into the buildings, but even if they were bleeding from their heads, they could not enter the buildings.

Su Yun sat on Chi Xiaoyao's back, and Chi Xiaoyao sped all the way to other buildings!
