"Your might is divine, sir!"
"I never thought you'd destroy that statue so easily, haha!"
The two stared at the empty ground, their expressions stirred and exhilarated.
To destroy the Undying Evil Venerable so easily meant that the Undying Evil Venerable could no longer pose a fatal threat.
Everyone in the Evil Extermination Department would benefit.
Chu Zhiyuan tugged at the corner of his mouth, yet his expression remained grave.
"Mr. Chu, what is it?" Zheng Yongming, the round-faced middle-aged man, asked with a smile.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head. "It was too easy. Something isn't right."
"Isn't easy a good thing?" Sun Jiafeng, the square-faced middle-aged man, asked in confusion. "Could it be that he controlled too many experts and exhausted himself too greatly, allowing you to deal with him so easily, sir?"
Zheng Yongming frowned and pondered. "Too greatly exhausted? ...Could it be—?"
His gaze turned north.
Beyond a great river, before a stretch of rolling mountains, stood a delicate little city.
It was Ben City.
Looking worriedly toward Ben City, he said slowly, "Could he have already harmed the city's people?"
Sun Jiafeng said, "Shall we go take a look?"
Zheng Yongming looked to Chu Zhiyuan. "Mr. Chu?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Let's go and see what exactly has happened."
"Please."
The moment the three stepped into the city, its bustling clamor washed over them.
Chu Zhiyuan's gaze swept around him. Ignoring the lively scene, he passed straight through the crowd and arrived at the City Lord's Mansion in the heart of the small city.
Zheng Yongming and Sun Jiafeng followed beside him. Seeing his grave expression, Zheng Yongming could not help asking, "Mr. Chu, has something happened at the City Lord's Mansion?"
The City Lord's Mansion was guarded by experts, but this was only a small city.
