Departure, Crimson-Flame Dead City

"Whoosh—splat!!"

The first chain swept out, and in the blink of an eye, it cut more than a dozen nearby barbarians watching the spectacle cleanly in half at the waist!

The chain was incredibly fast, and its fire energy was scorching. By the time the upper halves of those dozen or so barbarians had flown far away, their lower halves were still standing where they had been.

The severed wounds were charred black; the blood had not even had time to spurt out...

The second chain sprang up from the street and lashed against the load-bearing pillar of a two-story wooden building by the roadside.

Each flaming iron chain, more than a dozen zhang long, was like an enormous sickle, sweeping flat across the street.

The shops lining both sides of the road, the goods racks set up by roadside vendors, the parked mounts, and everything else were all swept away like little block houses!

"Rumbleee!!"

Explosions rang out one after another. Splintered wood flew everywhere, and dust surged through the air.

"Boom—boom—boom—!"

Within those trenches lay more than a hundred charred corpses, twisted into curls by the flames.

Explosions, shattering sounds,
