Final Arrangements

Dark clouds descended once again, and the protective shield over the underground city shattered.

Demon creatures flooded in like a tide, each with a different form and a hideous appearance. Their strength was far more powerful than any demon creatures they had encountered before.

They destroyed everything in the underground city. Buildings collapsed under their attacks, and the streets were completely devastated.

People who were in a deep sleep woke up one after another.

"Demon creatures! It's the demon creatures!"

"The Night King has invaded!"

"How could this happen? Why isn't the great formation working?!"

"Quick! Everyone, build a defense line to deal with the demon creatures!"

The streets were in complete chaos. People ran in all directions, and the screams and cries echoed everywhere. Panic quickly spread throughout the underground city.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The ear - piercing alarm sounded.

One after another, magic formations automatically appeared to protect the residential buildings.

The warrior legion of the underground city quickly assembled. They were wearing demon - fighting armor and holding demon - fighting weapons as they rushed to the urban area.

The sword - wielders flew into the air and used their spiritual blades to exterminate the demon creatures.

"Damn it. The Night King has been gone for half a year. Why did he suddenly show up again?"

"He just had to come and cause trouble when my brother - in - law is back."

"Doesn't he know that my brother - in - law and my sister were having a great time?"

Leng Ling'er led a team. She hovered in the air, and one after another, golden dragons roared towards the demon creatures on the streets.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

One after another, the demon creatures were instantly annihilated into ashes under the power of the divine dragons.

She looked annoyed. The Night King was truly an extremely evil being.

He always came to spoil people's happiness.

She formed hand seals, and boom!

One after another, the qi of the divine dragons spread out and enveloped every warrior in the urban area.

A divine dragon immediately emerged behind each person, and they felt their strength multiply.

After that, Leng Ling'er shouted down below, "Hold your positions and protect the great formation! We can't let the Night King's plot succeed!"

"Yes!"

Hearing the order, the warriors who had received the buff were like people who had been injected with stimulants.

They kept swinging their swords to kill the approaching demon creatures.

In the past six months, because the Gu family had been providing spiritual food, many people had voluntarily become warriors.

Everyone had the strength to fight the demon creatures!

"The warriors have protected us for so long. It's time for us all to work together! Let's fight against the Night King together!"

"That's right!"

"I've advanced to the Houtian cultivation level. I can handle some of the weaker demon creatures."

The warriors and the masses worked together to form a solid defense line. The great formation opened, and countless people inside the magic formation launched their martial arts skills outward to block the attacks of the demon creatures.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every time the demon creatures launched an attack, they were stubbornly repelled.

However, as time passed.

The attacks of the demon creatures came wave after wave, and the physical strength of the warriors and the masses was gradually exhausted.

"Sister Ling'er, this won't work. There are too many demon creatures!"

"And the Night King hasn't even shown up yet. We need your sister to step in!"

Ning Qian beheaded a demon creature and then retreated to Leng Ling'er's side. Her tone was serious.

Leng Ling'er frowned. After taking a look at the endless stream of demon creatures, she reluctantly nodded. "You're right."

She used all her strength to force back the demon creatures, and then she and Ning Qian retreated into the protective shield together.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The demon creatures rushed after them but were blocked by an additional protective shield.

Leng Ling'er looked at the surrounding warriors and said in a deep voice, "The first layer is extremely important. It must not fall!"

"Also, how many demon creatures have invaded the other layers?"

A warrior heard this, swallowed hard, and said fearfully, "There are a lot, and... the deeper you go... the stronger they are."

"What?"

Leng Ling'er's face darkened. What was going on?

How did the demon creatures bypass the first layer and reach the underground?

Could it be... spatial ability?

But... why didn't their magic formations sense anything?

No, she had to find her brother - in - law and sister quickly.

Thinking of this, Leng Ling'er closed her eyes and immediately tried to sense the auras of the two of them.

But...

How could this be?

Leng Ling'er opened her eyes, her expression stunned. She couldn't sense their auras.

Why?

"Sister Ling'er, how is it?"

Ning Qian asked nervously.

Leng Ling'er hesitated for a moment and then shook her head. "I can't sense my sister's aura."

"Ah?"

When the surrounding warriors heard this, their faces immediately turned pale. "If the leader is gone, aren't we all finished?"

"Yes. Without Leader Leng, who can stop the Night King?"

"No, not to mention the Night King. We're already having a hard time blocking these demon creatures."

"What should we do now?"

Some of the warriors started to have the idea of retreating. The great formation could only block the demon creatures for a while. Once the formation shattered, could they hold out?

Seeing this, Leng Ling'er clenched her fists, her eyes full of worry. Where on earth had her sister and brother - in - law gone?

For some reason, a sense of unease welled up in Leng Ling'er's heart.

In the lower area of the underground city.

In a kindergarten.

Mei Xue looked up at the sky. Flying demon creatures were hovering and growling in the air.

On the ground, demon creatures were passing by, fighting with the arriving warriors.

Strangely enough, these demon creatures didn't seem to be trying to kill the warriors. It seemed that they were just trying to render the warriors incapacitated.

She frowned slightly.

Naturally, she understood that this was Gu Yan's doing. Then... what did he want to do?

At this moment.

"Teacher Mei Xue... We're scared..."

"So scared..."

"Will the leader come to save us?"

One by one, the kids were hiding inside the house, their eyes filled with panic and fear.

Hearing this, Mei Xue closed the kindergarten gate and then turned around with a smile to comfort them, "It's okay. The leader will definitely resolve this crisis."

She could tell that there was really nothing for her to worry about.

Although she didn't know what Gu Yan's intention was, these demon creatures didn't seem to want to launch an attack here.

Nor did they really want to kill the warriors.

So, Gu Yan... what on earth is your purpose?

Inside a building.

Whoosh!

A figure appeared there. It was Old Gao wearing a black robe.

He came to this floor and scanned the surroundings with his eyes. This was the central signal reception area of the underground city, where the images could be projected across the entire floor.

"Old Gao."

A gentle voice sounded.

Old Gao followed the sound and looked over. Immediately... he was stunned.

He saw Gu Yan standing there with a smile on his face. Old Gao's eyes fixed on him, and he said in a surprised tone, "Young master! Your eyes are really healed?!"

Previously, when Gu Yan came back to see Leng Qingqiu, Old Gao had thought that Gu Yan was just pretending that his eyes were healed.

But now, with no one else around, it seemed that Gu Yan's eyes were really okay.

Gu Yan nodded and walked up to Old Gao, smiling, "Yes, they're really healed. Time is pressing, Old Gao. I have something to tell you."

Hearing this, looking at Gu Yan's expression, Old Gao suddenly felt a strange sense of sadness welling up in his heart, but he managed to suppress it.

He replied seriously, "Young master, just tell me. Old Gao will definitely do his best!"

Gu Yan smiled and said, "Stretch out your hand."

As he said that, Gu Yan stretched out his fingertip.

Squeak!

Claw emerged from his finger and landed in Old Gao's palm.

The Three - Life Demon Claw, this demon creature had accompanied Gu Yan for a long time.

It could be said that Claw's ability had contributed greatly to his current achievements.

Old Gao was taken aback and looked up at Gu Yan, "Young master, this is..."

Hearing this, Gu Yan turned his back. A wave of the Power of Night covered his whole body. In an instant... he entered the identity of the Night King.

His voice became like an echo as he slowly said, "Inside the demon creature restricted area, there are the bodies of people who died because of me from the past to the present."

"You can take Claw and enter there to unlock the permission, and then let Wang Yulan fuse the souls of everyone with their respective bodies."

"After this battle, the era of warriors will come to an end, and everyone will remember Leng Qingqiu as the hero of all mankind."

"I may have to leave for a while, but don't worry..."

Gu Yan turned his head. Even though his face was covered by the power of rules.

But Old Gao seemed to be able to see his young master smiling reassuringly at him: "I'll come back."

"Before that, you should assist Luo Ya and arrange the matters after this."

Old Gao's lips trembled.

The things in front of him suddenly became a bit blurry: "Young master..."

He lowered his head and fell silent. Finally, he took a deep breath, looked up, and said seriously, "Young master, Old Gao... understands."

"Okay."

After giving all these instructions, Gu Yan's figure turned into a shadow and rushed towards the clouds.
