Urban Romantic Divine Doctor-Chapter 1532 - 1529: Xu Wendong’s Blood Sacrifice

Upon hearing Xu Wendong’s words, Si Yao’s eyes flashed with a hint of confusion and helplessness. She casually sat at the stone table and lowered her head to eat the meal sent by Xu Wendong.

Although the food was rich in flavor, much more aromatic and delicious than what the Tianji Pavilion provided, she found it tasteless, like chewing wax.

After a moment.

She let out a sound of helplessness: "The number of Otherworldly Demons on the surface far exceeds our imagination. They are searching for our traces, and once found, solely relying on the City Defense Array is unable to withstand their offensive." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Lord Immortal King has also sent messages to the strong ones in other Underground Cities, hoping they can send people to aid."

"However, our situation here is extremely perilous, and those strong ones cannot reach us at all."

"Now, the only thing we can do is hope that those Otherworldly Demons can’t find the location of the Underground City, otherwise, no one can survive this calamity!"

Xu Wendong’s expression was heavy, the situation was far more troublesome than he had imagined.

Si Yao looked at Xu Wendong with complicated eyes: "Young Master Xu, living a lifetime, one ought to have some pursuit!"

"Especially in times of chaos like this, one should take action."

"Instead of indulging in lust, only seeking pleasure below the waist!"

Xu Wendong’s old face turned red, he smiled bitterly and said: "Predecessor Si Yao is right, living a lifetime indeed requires some pursuit, achievements, but how do you know I haven’t been silently contributing?"

Si Yao snorted coldly, angrily looking at Xu Wendong: "What have you contributed besides enjoying pleasures with women?"

Xu Wendong knew.

She had a prejudice against him.

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Wendong couldn’t help but say: "If I were to say that I’m cultivating a Dual Cultivation Technique, and once I reach the Heavenly Immortal Realm, I can avert the Human Race’s disastrous fate, would you believe me?"

Si Yao said coldly: "Unless you become a strong one at the Immortal Venerable level, otherwise you cannot resolve the Human Race’s catastrophic fate!"

Xu Wendong shrugged helplessly: "See, that’s the fact, but you don’t believe it, what can I do?"

Speaking of this, he gazed at the night sky, murmuring: "Actually, every one of us is striving to live, living hard like ants, and silently contributing in our own way."

"It’s just that, some people’s contributions are destined to be unseen."

Si Yao’s heart trembled.

For some reason.

She unexpectedly felt a sense of sorrow in Xu Wendong.

As if his heart was concerned with all the world’s beings.

Carrying the life and death of creatures in the Three Realms!

Especially his poignant gaze, made Si Yao feel almost suffocated.

His gaze was too deep, giving off an intense sense of oppression.

"In the future, after we finish cooking, I’ll place it on the wall top, you can take it yourself." Leaving a sentence behind, Xu Wendong turned and walked towards the corner, then jumped athletically, his figure lightly landed on the wall top.

Si Yao suddenly asked: "When can you break through the barrier?"

She didn’t know why she would ask that.

Perhaps, even she wasn’t aware that deep in her consciousness she already believed that once Xu Wendong stepped into the Heavenly Immortal Realm, he could avert the doom of the Underground City’s citizens.

Xu Wendong murmured: "Probably soon!" Saying this, he jumped off the wall top and returned to his courtyard.

------

The next morning.

Xu Wendong received Han Hexiang’s message: "I have tracked down the whereabouts of those four girls. A girl named Xu Fan is currently in the Red Flame Divine Continent, while the remaining three are in the Netherworld Ghost Continent. They are lucky, they are all still alive."

Hearing Han Hexiang’s words, Xu Wendong was so excited that he almost shouted for joy, and his suspended heart finally settled.

This was undoubtedly great news for him.

After all.

All the women he cared deeply about were still alive!

As long as they’re still alive, there’s a chance to reunite!

However, thinking about the current situation, Xu Wendong couldn’t help but feel deeply powerless, knowing their whereabouts, but so what? Whether he could survive this catastrophe was still uncertain.

In a flash, five days passed.

Just as Xu Wendong and the others had finished lunch.

Suddenly, from underfoot, waves of rumbling like distant thunder resonated, as if the entire world was trembling.

The rumbling sound came in succession, like an earthquake, the intense vibrations made everyone’s scalps numb, a chill shooting from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, causing shivers.

Furthermore, a suffocating murderous aura, so powerful as to be overwhelming, surged like a tide from afar.

The aura carried endless freezing cold and the pressure of death, as if it could freeze a person’s soul.

Without a second thought, everyone instinctively flickered and appeared on the rooftops.

In unison, their gazes went far away, and upon seeing the scene afar, everyone’s pupils fiercely trembled, revealing deep horror in their eyes.

In the distance, a mass of black shadows rolled in like dark clouds.

It was an army clad in black armor, wielding Red Tassel Spears, marching with heavy, orderly steps, each step causing the earth to tremble.

The black armor glinted sinisterly under the sunlight, resembling the armor of demons from Hell.

Their ranks were uniform, like a moving iron fortress, exuding an invincible aura.

The flags fluttered in the wind, embroidered with mysterious and terrifying patterns, making one fearful to glance.

Wherever they passed, dust billowed, as if threatening to swallow the whole world.

They emitted a pungent stench of blood and the scent of death, like a Grim Reaper army returning fresh from the battlefield.

Song Ziwei’s face turned sallow, and her gaze fixed desperately on the ever-nearing ranks in the distance, she trembled in speech: "How can the Black Armored Guards appear here?"

"What are the Black Armored Guards?" The crowd looked at Song Ziwei in confusion; they hadn’t heard of this name before.

Song Ziwei swallowed nervously, just about to speak when Si Yao appeared on the rooftop as well, her gaze heavy: "The Black Armored Guards are the fiercest under the command of the Immortal King. Though only eight hundred strong, each possesses the power of the Golden Immortal Realm, inconceivably strong!"

"But, the Black Armored Guards take orders only from Lord Immortal King, so why are they here?"

Si Yao knew Lord Immortal King was severely injured, and this period was dedicated to healing, logically the Black Armored Guards shouldn’t be here.

At this moment.

The Black Armor Guard Leader halted with his people in front of the formation. He wore a black mask, hiding his appearance, but beneath the mask lay a pair of chilling eyes.

The Black Armor Guard Leader’s voice echoed coldly: "Xu Wendong, Lord Immortal King has decreed, you are an ominous person. The Other Races’ chaos this time stems from you, and now you are to be apprehended, blood sacrificed to the heavens, to quell this unrest!"
