Long Live Summons

Chapter 685 Too Clever by Half

City Lord’s Mansion.

When Long Xiang returned, he found that everyone in the City Lord’s mansion was dejected.

Old Demon Wei, who had always been arrogant, also had a gloomy expression，drinking one cup after another emotionless as a widow lost her only son.

The atmosphere of a full house of Warriors in Heavenly Stage was truly strange. Long Xiang suspected that he had entered the wrong place. Was this really the Master of Black Wind City’s mansion? Why did it look like a memorial service?

“General Long Xiang!” When Black Wind saw that Long Xiang had returned, he immediately mustered his strength and spirit. Without mentioning the others, the support of the Lionheart King was undoubtedly the most important.

“City Lord, what exactly happened?” Long Xiang slightly bowed and asked.

“This is what happened...” The Master of Black Wind City’s narrated the whole process of the fight in the day in detail, trying his best to be tactful and not to put the Old Demon Wei’s dignity on the line. He repeatedly emphasized that Yue Yang was actually not a match for the Old Demon Wei, only his speed was a bit faster and his skill was better, and there were also many battle beasts around. They killed the Azure Swallowing Python, which was at the third level of the Heaven Stage, and thus forced the Old Demon Wei to retreat.

Long Xiang was stunned.

Old Demon Wei’s lightning-like speed was something he knew.

The enemy was even faster and more skilled than Old Demon Wei and possessed many warbeasts. Even Azure Swallowing Python of Heaven Stage level 3 could be killed?

Indeed, it wasn’t surprising for him to be in such a mess when facing such an opponent... At last, Long Xiang also frowned and thought for a long time. “I haven’t seen that masked guy before. I can’t be sure, but I feel that this person is a bit similar to the person I previously thought him to be. Of course, there was something different about that person. He had two Divine Beasts, and they were powerful enough to rival the teamwork of the clown, Rachel, and Wise Demon Marshall. Perhaps they were not the same person, but they were likely to be members of the same clan, disciples of the same sect, or even brothers. Because both of them are extremely proficient in battle skills, and have many intelligent warbeasts. More importantly, you said that the masked guy had been accompanied by Sky Execution, Long Xuan and other Warriors in Heaven Stage. They are also skilled, and all of them have the strength to fight at a super level. This has deepened my speculations.”

“The man from last time, he and his female companion, may not look powerful, but even that little girl cannot be underestimated. She was able to instantly kill several Earth Stage that were much higher than her level, and her battle techniques, the use of battle beasts, and her Mental Force Field were perfect.” As Long Xiang spoke, he recalled.

"From this, we can conclude that the one who came to seek revenge this time should be their race. This race, your Majesty Lionheart King, has discussed it repeatedly with me. Not only are humans of this race unique, they have excellent concealing abilities, and do not easily allow others to see through their true strength. Furthermore, they all possess high level Summoning Grimoire. It’s rare.” Before Long Xiang could finished his analysis, the Master of Black Wind City had already struck out with his palm.

The Master of Black Wind City nodded in agreement, "That’s right, not only does the Sky Execution, Long Xuan, and masked guy have their own Grimoires, even the several people in Earth Stage also have their own Grimoires!”

After Long Xiang heard this, he pondered for a bit, "Now, it can be determined that they both come from the same race. Your Master of Black Wind City, according to my personal observations and my investigations at the later stages, this race is very protective. They should be peaceful but they place great importance on honor, and once they are insulted, they will immediately erupt. Even if their enemies are as strong as mountains, they will fearlessly accept the battle. If the Alchemist Master Jun Wu Ye hadn’t died, it would’ve been easy for us to hand him over. But now ... well!”

How could the Master of Black Wind City not know that his subordinate had caused a calamity?

But there was no way to defend it.

Was he going to confess to the opponent that the Alchemist Master Jun Wu Ye was really dead?

If that was the case, then most likely everyone else would be fine, and he would be killed immediately. Black Wind wasn’t a fool. He definitely wouldn’t take the blame for this. If he were to die, everyone would die together. In any case, everyone’s interests were tied together. If someone gave way to him, Black Wind would immediately run. No matter how good Black Wind City and Black Market were, how could they compare to his life?

No matter how much money he had, it would be useless without his life!

“They didn’t pursue us?” Long Xiang was a bit curious. Since the other side won, why didn’t they take advantage of the victory to pursue?

“After Old Demon Wei, they continued to send people out to fight a few rounds.” With a bitter face, the Master of Black Wind City shook his head and said, "Maybe they are waiting for the stronger clansmen to arrive. They did not attack with all their might. The only people from the three major powers that came were the people from the Demonic Palace.

“If that couple is really one of these clan’s people, then it’ll be dangerous.” Long Xiang felt a chill in his heart.

Although the Lionheart King wanted to get rid of him, he had no choice but to be wary of Mo Long and the forces behind him. If he really provoked the race that he belonged to, then this battle would not be as simple as conquering Black Wind City. Even the Emerald Territory would not be able to be saved, and even the greater region would fall.

Long Xiang wanted to immediately report back to the Lionheart King, as the situation had changed.

Such a decision would require the Lionheart King to reconsider his plans.

Of course, in order to comfort the Master of Black Wind City, Long Xiang didn’t immediately take action. Instead, he comforted him with a few words of consolation, expressing that his side would support him to the end.

General Jin Feng brought up the matter again, “General Long Xiang, this matter, you see, could it be an enemy conspiracy?”

Not to mention Long Xiang, even the Master of Black Wind City and Bai Song didn’t believe his assumption.

Bai Song shook his head and waved his hand. “My son Song Tao’s death couldn’t have been done by them. In fact, I don’t think they had any intention to kill us for the time being. They didn’t kill us either yesterday or today.” The General was right, these people were calm and wouldn’t slaughter other in normal case, unless they were truly enraged. With their abilities, not to mention my son Song Tao, if everyone present were to go all out, there would not be many people remaining. This Black Wind City will not be able to protect them for a long time. "

“That’s right, the ones who killed Young Master Song Tao and Elder Hei Suo should be those rebel soldiers who wanted to entrap us.” There were at least five Heaven Ranked martial artists among the rebel army. Three of them were even at Heaven stage third rank. If they joined forces and attacked from the shadows, they would be able to kill Young Master Song Tao and Elder Hei Suo in an instant. The Master of Black Wind City sighed, “What happened was just a coincidence.” “We were distracted by the rebel army’s actions. To think that something terrible happened right beside us.”

“Then how about we hand over the Guard Captain and vice president Chidoo, then we can negotiate again?” General Jin Feng hated the Guard Captain and Vice Chairman of his personal guard for his trouble.

“Not for now. This will only make the other party even more angry.” Old Demon Wei quickly stopped them, “Not only can we not hand them over, we have to hide their secrets first.”

“It’s not good to bet in Black Wind City. Then where should we hold them?” General Jin Feng felt a headache coming on.

“Let’s put it in the Shao Zi fortress, the dungeon there is the most secret, the safest ...” “Wait!” Old Demon Wei suddenly cried out in alarm, “Raging Flames! She’s currently in the Shao Zi fortress. If the rebel army finds out, they will definitely inform the masked guy outside of the city. If the masked guy rescues Raging Flames, they will gain another heaven stage rank!”

When he said this, everyone felt fear in their hearts.

Without any hesitation.

Hoka and Savi, the two Heaven stage warriors, immediately rushed to the portal in the City Lord’s Mansion.

They needed to get to the Shao Zi fortress at once and move the felon. She had been planning on using her to attract the rebel army, but now, the rebel army could use her to their advantage. Once the masked guy outside the city found out about the raging flames and saved her, the consequences would be dire.

It took a lot of effort to catch Captain Raging Flames.

Her power was at the fifth level of the Heaven stage.

If not for her brute force, as well as the lack of special techniques and warbeasts to coordinate with her, capturing her would have been an arduous task.

If the Captain Raging Flames got out of this trap, with her terrifying strength and the masked guy’s speed and skill, it wouldn’t be as simple as just one plus one equals two. It would probably sweep across the entire Black Wind City, killing Old Demon Wei of the Azure Swallowing Python. No matter what, he couldn’t let the masked guy release the flames ...

Old Demon Wei led the team and escorted the others back to the sentry fort at high speed.

Transferring the flames is a super-felon.

Long Xiang, on the other hand, was frowning as he thought about something.

He felt that he had some sort of inspiration that he could not grasp, that he was thinking hard.

The Master of Black Wind City quickly urged Long Xiang to drink, not allowing him to think too much about the gains and losses in the battle. If Long Xiang told the Lionheart King to give up Black Wind City, that would be terrible. Black Wind and Bai Song were faking that Zhang and Long Xiang would discuss tactics while testing his mouth to see when the Lionheart King would intervene.

Half an hour later.

Old Demon Wei returned with a bit of satisfaction, while Hoka and Savi both had joyous looks on their faces.

“We arrived first. The rebel army did not inform the masked guy in time. We had already moved the flames out of the Shao Zi fortress and moved Full Moon City.” “Haha, luckily, Jin Feng mentioned this matter. Otherwise, things would be really bad.” Old Demon Wei’s expression recovered a little as he felt that he had a foresight.

“That’s right, Elder Wei, you’re wise and astute. Everything is within your grasp.” General Jin Feng was flattering him. There was nothing he could do about Old Devil Wei. This was what he liked about Old Devil Wei.

“Oh, no!” Long Xiang exclaimed and stood up.

He finally understood what he had been so busy thinking about before. It was about the transfer of flames.

Long Xiang angrily threw his cup and loudly cursed: “Dammit, we shouldn’t have moved!”

Old Demon Wei and the others were stunned.

The Master of Black Wind City, who was a smart person, reacted immediately and shouted, “Quick, let’s go to Full Moon City. We need to go there immediately. There might not have been any news of the rebel army taking down Flame. This shift is just enough for the rebel army to find out.” “No, we have to go look at the Full Moon City!”

From within the portal, a bloody heaven stage emerged.

It was the captain of the squadron, Lei Kai, who was in charge of watching the flames. He cried out sorrowfully, “There is a masked guy leading the army. He is an insider in the rebel army.”

“AHH!”

Lei Kai’s sorrowful cry instantly shocked the entire audience.

Old Demon Wei slumped to the ground. Even after a long time, he didn’t know how to react.
