Night

A wing-like shape pierced the night sky, rapidly descending.

Greed zone.

Su Zhe, holding his phone, asked, "Xian-ge Mu Hen, why hasn't Mu Hen arrived yet?"

"I can't get through to his phone either. Could something have happened to him?"

Su Xian frowned and remained silent.

He didn't know either; Mu Hen had been taken away by his father for some business, and he was told he'd be back soon, but then he disappeared.

"Damn, without him, a major fighting force... won't the throne be even harder to win?"

Su Zhe was somewhat worried. Dawn was about to break, and time was running out. They were now one person short—no, two people short.

Mu Hen and Uncle Mu have disappeared.

Su Xian stood by the window for a long time in silence, pondering a solution.

After all, with Mu Hen not coming, he and Su Zhe were under a lot of pressure.

The throne is not so easy to seize.

The plan needs to be disrupted now; the throne must be seized, otherwise, if they come in and don't get out, they won't be able to save Li Chen, and they'll be trapped inside themselves.

Thump thump~

Suddenly, the sound of breaking windows rang out.

All sorts of animals leaped beneath the Greed Throne, their eyes scanning the surroundings with bloodlust.

Su Xian frowned, staring down, and murmured, "It seems the Ferocious Beast Association is about to make its move?"

"But why does it look like things are going to end in a fight to the death?"

The atmosphere was too tense, filled with a sense of impending doom.

At that moment, a very large jackal below opened its mouth and howled, uttering human language.

"Isn't the Human Association coming out yet?"

"My boss has received word that Jingang is probably dead!"

"And the Superpower Association lurking around, as well as your boss Weilan, are all here. Today, my boss is determined to have this Greed Throne."

"If you want to fight, then come down."

"Otherwise, don't blame my Ferocious Beast Association for not giving you a chance!"

No one responded...

Because the people around them didn't know if it was true or not, and besides, how could their own boss suddenly be in trouble?

The next moment, a man emerged from the shadows and stood opposite them. After glancing around, he spoke up, "My Human Association's leader is in trouble, but does your Ferocious Beast Association not?"

"You can't take this Greed Throne, nor can you afford to!"

The jackal bared its teeth and glared at him fiercely, roaring, "Damn it, you have to take it whether you can't afford it or not."

Roar~

A dark shadow flashed by.

The two instantly clashed.

One by one, the Sequence User emerged from the darkness and engaged in fierce battle.

Su Zhe was stunned. "Wow, this guy really is a local."

"You say you'll fight, so why don't you just fight!"

Su Xian narrowed her eyes slightly.

While pondering countermeasures, the Human Association and the Ferocious Beast Association are now at war? What about the Superpower Association?

Why aren't you showing up?

Suddenly, one after another, the fire hydrant pipes burst.

The Black Water fell like rain.

Su Xian frowned and murmured, "This aura... Li Chen used it before, how could it be..."

Just as he was pondering...

Those below who hadn't noticed the Black Water thought it was just ordinary water, but the tearing sensation in their bodies instantly woke them up.

But it was too late...

Ah!!

Screams echoed everywhere.

One by one, Eerie Monsters hatched from their shells.

Most people witnessed this terrifying scene and found it utterly unbelievable.

"Damn it, what's going on?"

"How did these people suddenly turn into Eerie Monsters? Is your Human Association playing a trick on us?!"

"I haven't even accused your Ferocious Beast Association of cheating yet!"

Immediately, the crowd below erupted into a frenzy, like children.

The Eerie Monsters, on the other hand, were killed as soon as they appeared.

However, more and more Eerie Monsters began to surround them, and their numbers were dwindling rapidly while the Eerie Monsters was increasing.

Chaos erupted here.

Abyssal Gladiatorial Arena.

Two thuds followed.

Two burly men fell to the ground simultaneously.

He stood up in Wrath, clapping loudly and laughing, before finally sitting back down after a long while.

"How boring, how incredibly boring!"

"Let's end this War of Kings as soon as possible."

"Let me see who seized power."

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

Greed, covered in blood, collapsed on the throne beside the Wrath king, his face deathly pale.

"Huh?" Wrath in fury, he thought, "Wasn't this guy supposed to be leaving Sinful City? Why is he back here?" He asked, "Weren't you going out?"

The tone of Greed was weak and unusually small.

"For some unknown reason, the outside world has now been completely overrun by Eerie Monsters. I'm not talking about outside the pass, but the road connecting to the inland!"

"We can't get out."

His Wrath only fueled his confusion.

It shouldn't be like the inland areas are being occupied by Eerie Monsters, right?

Even if they had received prior intelligence that Canghai Pass had been breached, it would be impossible for them to have invaded this area.

Greed sneered, "Have you forgotten that the City of Sin still has a malignant tumor?"

The Child of Destiny!

His Wrath, bloodshot eyes suddenly widened. Of course he remembered, but this reminder suddenly brought him back to reality.

Greed sighed and said, "Looks like you're not stupid after all."

"In my opinion, the Child of Destiny is now collaborating with Evil Cult. If you don't kill him, the entire City of Sin will be destroyed."

His Wrath grew increasingly suspicious. "Oh? Evil Cult?"

How could I not know?

Greed's wounds began to heal slowly, and his complexion returned to normal. He let out a cold laugh.

"You're always Wrath, focusing only on the immediate present and ignoring the future. How would you know what Sinful City is like now?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you're probably the only one still alive among those in Authority Holder."

They're all dead.

Wrath and somewhat incredulous, he exclaimed, "Aren't Sloth and the others human?"

Greed shook his head slightly, his tone mocking, "Ha... Sloth? You're really underestimating him."

"You're surrounded by enemies now, and so is his Sloth, but his approach to the situation is far superior to yours."

"Let's put that aside for now. Only you can deal with the Child of Destiny. If you want to see the City of Sin destroyed, run now."

After a few seconds of silence, he roared in Wrath, "Did you use your ability?"

His Greed, deep eyes met his gaze.

Now we're all in the same boat, and no one can escape.

"That's right, I can only use my abilities to have a sliver of hope. This war is far beyond our reach."

"And which esteemed person should step forward now!"

His pupils constricted in Wrath, and he slammed his fist on the throne, causing the entire throne to tremble.

Pass Master, it's time to leave the gate...

The Seven Sins are now divided and are still engaged in the second round of the War of Kings. If the Pass Master descends, they will all die.

After all, they deserve a lot of credit for Sinful City becoming this mess!

Moreover, the Child of Destiny are now putting immense pressure on them, and Evil Cults are also infiltrating.

Looking at it this way, the entire Sinful City was riddled with holes, and he Wrath, yet he was still here lamenting the state of life.

The Pass Master has left the arena; he'll be the first to die!
