Lin Fei transformed into a streak of flowing light, moving at an unbelievable speed, and vanished from everyone’s sight in an instant.

The other people from the king’s city hadn’t reacted, but Lin Fei had already left. However, they already knew the truth; if they returned, they could inform others that Lin Fei was not the culprit.

But just as they were about to leave, suddenly the sky descended with a pressure that was hard for them to bear. This pressure was like a Heavenly God, making them feel trapped in a quagmire. Yet, shortly afterward, an old man flew down from the sky.

The old man had crane-like hair and a youthful face, dressed in a master’s robe. He looked at these people and asked, "Did you see a dragon?"

A few people nodded immediately, not daring to be negligent.

"Which direction did they go?" the old man asked.

The people looked towards the direction where Lin Fei left, and the old man nodded, "Consider yourselves obedient, I’ll spare your lives. But today’s events must not be spoken of to outsiders."

Everyone quickly nodded, and then saw the old man disappear from the place in an instant.

"It seems a Dragon Clan member descended to the Lower Realm, hehehehe, I was just missing a certain herb, what a coincidence!" the old man’s voice echoed through the forest, chasing in the direction Lin Fei fled.

After the old man left, those people finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had survived a disaster, and hurriedly left, returned to the king’s city, and explained the events to others.

However, at this time, a powerful cultivator said, "If that’s the case, then from now on, I’ll be the king of this city!"

"You? You’re not even worth a fart! I am!"

No one cared about Lin Fei’s matter, but more about the future ownership of the city.

In the future, it can be imagined that the king’s city will have unrest for a long time unless a strong cultivator arrives.

On Lin Fei’s side, feeling the powerful force behind him, he quickly fled the area, yet the force behind continued to follow closely, making it hard for him to escape the opponent’s control.

"What to do?" Lin Fei asked the two little ones on his body.

"How about this, Master, you leave first, and this dragon will draw that guy away. Anyway, if this dragon uses full strength, he’s no match for me, but it might attract more powerful opponents. However, if I fully commit to fleeing, there’s nothing she can do," Little Black said.

Lin Fei furrowed his brows, then handed a part of the map to Little Black, saying, "Be careful. If necessary, kill the opponent directly, and then we can figure out other ways. Let’s meet in Sky Wolf City."

Little Black nodded, then transformed into a black light, and flew in a different direction, while Lin Fei headed towards Sky Wolf City. Once entering Sky Wolf City, safety was likely assured, as Sky Wolf City was no ordinary small city.

At this moment, the old man behind felt the aura ahead divide into two, making it clearer to sense the dragon’s aura, so he pursued the dragon.

And Lin Fei was spared a disaster.

Lin Fei advanced, not knowing for how long, his True Qi nearly depleted, so he stopped and sat on a tree trunk, took out the Gathering Qi Demon Sphere, placed it beneath him, and began to crazily absorb Heaven and Earth Qi.

In an instant, Heaven and Earth Qi filled Lin Fei’s body, and he quickly put away the Demon Sphere, avoiding the surrounding demon beasts’ attacks, transformed into a stream of light flashing above the forest, and the jungle below roared with commotion, unknowingly, countless demon beasts had been drawn behind Lin Fei.

At this moment, Lin Fei clearly saw ahead a surging river, but it was no challenge for him, especially since a huge city was already not far away.

Lin Fei directly crossed the river, but to his surprise, a large group of demon beasts followed him, heading towards the distant city.

Lin Fei felt that the demon beast horde behind him seemed maddened, several beasts already matching his speed, indicating they were demon beasts above the Nascent Soul Realm, otherwise, it was impossible to overtake Lin Fei unless they were exceptionally fast and agile demon beasts.

Unnoticed, the city ahead was nearing, and behind Lin Fei followed the demon beast army, which also kept advancing towards the city.

At this moment, people within the city noticed the situation and reported to the City Lord, who ascended to the sky and spoke to the old man beside him, "Please, sir, take action."

"Hmm, City Lord should not be so courteous."

Behind the City Lord, a powerful old man with crane-like hair and youthful face, white beard fluttering, eyes filled with wisdom, flew to the edge of the city, arriving there in an instant.

When the old man saw that the demon beasts were following a young man, and he was a Golden Core Realm cultivator? It’s surprising that the beasts hadn’t devoured him.

Immediately, the old man found the cause; Lin Fei possessed a powerful movement technique, otherwise he couldn’t have kept the beasts at such a far distance.

However, those charging beasts, much larger than horses, running like an earthquake, gave the city’s people a feeling of constant tremors beneath their feet, terrifying them.

"The demon beasts are attacking the city!"

Someone shouted, causing panic, and in an instant, many frightened people gathered above the city, gazing at the charging beast horde, panicking at their inability to resist these beasts, facing imminent death.

"Do not panic!"

The City Lord’s voice steadied everyone’s hearts, calming them down.

At this moment, the old man standing in the sky, looking at the beasts below surging like a river, shocked and at the same time began drawing array maps in the air, then as the beasts were about to charge forward, cast arrays on them.

"Eight Array Formation!" The old man said, soon after, an array cast, causing light screens to appear on the ground, seeming like protective shields, filled with a sense of solidity.

By then, Lin Fei had escaped the beast horde, directly standing atop the grand formation, panting heavily, exhausted.

"Thank you, senior, for the rescue!"

Lin Fei gasped a few breaths, hurriedly thanking, but suddenly sensed the formation beneath his feet begin to shake continuously.
