Chapter 1513: A Sudden Change

A bestial roar, accompanied by a human voice, resounded throughout heaven and earth while a terrible rumble shook the air. It was as if a great terror was approaching at great speed from a distance.

In the City of God Kings, everyone’s face turned unsightly, and they felt their hearts begin pounding quickly. In the face of this mighty pressure, experts like Luo Sanniang, whose strength was only in the God realm, were utterly terrified.

One after another, God Kings jerked up their heads and looked into the distant sky. A great beast was wheeling there, with thunderbolts constantly crackling and smiting at the void around it.

There were not many God Kings in the city, but they were all extraordinary in strength. With them guarding the city, it could be considered the toughest stronghold for humans. Even the Xiayi Divine Dynasty’s capital might not have such a strong defense.

However, this hovering City of God Kings was now threatened by a fearsome Blood Beast King.

Rumble!

From inside the city, columns of scary aura erupted, spreading quickly and almost covering the entire sky. Then, one high-grade God King after another stepped through the air and made their appearance.

“Bright Heavenly Thunder Dragon! This is the City of God Kings, not a place where you can run wild!” a high-grade God King roared.

The gatekeeper’s black robe flapped noisily as he floated up into the air. With his hands clasped behind his back, he looked like an expert who had seen through the vicissitudes of life.

The four high-grade God Kings guarding the city flew into the sky. Their aura joined together and formed a huge net, protecting the whole city.

The sky was filled with a surging and scary aura of the Blood Beast.

As a top Blood Beast King ranked fourth on the Blood Beast King List, the Bright Heavenly Thunder Dragon was much more powerful than the Dark Blood Phoenix. Every time an existence of this level appeared, it would blow up a great storm in the relic. Could it be that he was going to attack the City of God Kings?

“You have killed the Blood Phoenix… She was my spouse, and you killed her! This is a deadly feud, and you all shall be buried with her!”

A dragon roar resounded through the skies. Suddenly, the void was torn apart, and a huge rift emerged, in which thunderbolts flashed and crackled. The next moment, a divine dragon flew out of it, its whole body bursting with lightning and looking as bright as the blazing sun.

This was the Bright Heavenly Thunder Dragon, a top Blood Beast King with extremely mighty strength!

As soon as he appeared, the divine dragon opened his mouth and spewed a jet of white flame at the City of God Kings to destroy it completely.

The four high-grade God Kings hovered in midair. The Power of Law over their heads spread, turning into a giant net to block the dragon fire.

The mighty Bright Heavenly Thunder Dragon actually fought against four high-grade God Kings alone, and he even suppressed them in terms of strength.

At this moment, the gatekeeper snorted coldly, and the void exploded. His Law of Space gathered, and the void instantly materialized, transforming into a cage and moving toward the dragon.

In just the blink of an eye, the battle turned white-hot.

“Damn humans! You must all die!” the dragon growled, his massive body lashing at the void.

The next moment, the world changed. In the distant sky, one terrifying savage monster after another floated up, and four Blood Beast Kings were flying at high speed toward the city.

They were all top Blood Beast Kings. Although not as scary as the Dark Blood Phoenix and the Bright Heavenly Thunder Dragon, their aura was enough to obliterate the void.

Everyone’s expression changed dramatically.

“So many Blood Beast Kings? Are they really planning to attack the City of God Kings?”

The scene caught everyone by surprise. No one expected so many Blood Beast Kings to show up at the same time. Although the Thunder Dragon was the only one among them who was ranked on the Blood Beast King List, the pressure brought by so many top monsters was still tremendous.

Down below, Bu Fang’s eyes sparkled.

Summer leaned over to him with an odd expression on her face. “Bu Fang, I think this dragon is coming for you, right? After all, you killed the Dark Blood Phoenix,” she whispered.

No one heard her. In fact, no one was in the mood to pay attention to her whisper with Bu Fang at the moment.

A high-ranking Blood Beast King was attacking the City of God Kings. That frightened the experts of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty’s emissary group. Wasn’t this city the safest place in the relic?

These self-proclaimed geniuses all felt insignificant at this moment. The Blood Beast Kings outside the city, who were as colossal as mountains, let them feel what despair was.

“Too strong… These are all existences at the level of top-grade God Kings!”

Would they die? Would they be brutally slaughtered by these Blood Beast Kings? The head area of the ancient Heavengod’s relic was known to be the most dangerous zone, and it really lived up to its name.

Every God King in the city flew up into the air, and every high-grade God King had joined the battle, including those from the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty.

Tian Qiu was among them as well as their aura joined into a large screen to protect the city. However, there was a hint of a smile on his lips, and he seemed to be waiting for something with that strange look in his eyes.

The Thunder Dragon roared, and the other Blood Beast Kings answered. For a moment, a terrible aura swept across this part of heaven and earth!

The Blood Beast Kings attacked, and the high-grade God Kings could only resist with all their might. A great battle broke out in the sky over the relic in an instant.

It was a violent battle, with scary rumbles reverberating continuously and all kinds of divine power and Laws colliding with each other. For a moment, the City of God Kings seemed to be on the verge of being destroyed, like a small boat in a giant storm.

Bu Fang stood in place and exhaled lightly, looking up at the sky. He really did not expect that the Dark Blood Phoenix’s death would lead to the Thunder Dragon’s frantic attack of the city.

‘This doesn’t make sense,’ he thought. ‘Could there be something good in the Blood Phoenix? Or… Was she just an excuse?’

If there was something good in the Blood Phoenix, Bu Fang could not have been unaware of it. So the first possibility could be ruled out. The only possibility then was the second one.

‘Could it be that the Thunder Dragon had been plotting to attack the City of God Kings for a long time, and what they coveted are the Heavengod’s bones and blood in the city?’

This was quite possible. As the divine dynasty’s base in the relic, the God Kings stored all the Heavengod’s bones and blood they had acquired in this city, which was quite possibly the reason for the attack of the Blood Beast Kings.

The balance of the battle gradually tipped to one side. There were simply too few high-grade God Kings. Strong as the gatekeeper was, he was only able to hold off the Thunder Dragon. On the other hand, the rest of the Blood Beast Kings were incredibly strong. Under their attacks, the experts of the City of God Kings were losing ground.

This was not good news for the people in the city. The geniuses of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty were already shaking. Even Fang Wuji was feeling a pang of powerlessness. This was a battle that they did not qualify to intervene in. Any attack leaked from a battle between high-grade God Kings could kill them.

Rumble!

One high-grade God King after another fell back into the city, their energy and blood boiling.

“Dammit! These beasts must have come prepared! They took advantage of the absence of most of the experts to attack us! They’re going to capture the City of God Kings at one fell swoop!” The gatekeeper’s face was livid, and his old face was filled with shock and anger. There were so many Blood Beast Kings acting at the same time, but they had not even received any news beforehand. This showed that the other side had plotted this a long time ago, and the Blood Phoenix was just an excuse.

If it was in other times, when the ranking God Kings were in the city, these beasts would never dare to launch an attack.

“Pull back and defend the city! Activate the Nine Revolutions Divine Emperor Array!” cried the gatekeeper.

The other high-grade God Kings answered him in loud voices. Then, they scattered and landed all over the city, performed incantation gestures with both hands, and released their Power of Law, activating the array.

Soon, a golden palace appeared above the floating city. That was the Nine Revolutions Divine Emperor Array, a powerful defensive array.

“Quick, contact the top-ranking God Kings and have them return at once to defend the city…” the gatekeeper said hurriedly. He was the person who controlled the array.

A God King nodded.

BOOM!

The thunderbolt roared, turned into a lightning whip, and viciously lashed on the palace, blowing it apart and turning it into ruins in an instant. It was a terrible sight to behold. However, it quickly recovered and continued to protect the city.

Countless Blood Beasts were constantly attacking the city, pounding on the gates and walls. It seemed that the City of God Kings would be breached at any moment. The situation had become very critical all of a sudden, and this exceeded everyone’s expectations.

King Pingyang, King Tianlong, and the other God Kings who usually stood above the crowd were pale at this moment. They had fought countless battles, but this one was beyond their imagination.

Tian Qiu landed on the wall. He put his hands behind his back and squinted at everything. Then, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he turned to look at the black-robed old man sitting in midair. Suddenly, his lips parted, and a long tongue stuck out from between them, looking like a snake’s tongue.

“That Thunder Dragon’s right… It’s time for the City of God Kings to be destroyed,” he murmured. The next moment, black smoke emerged and spread around him, and then with a boom, he shot forward at great speed like a cannonball!

The gatekeeper’s expression changed dramatically. Even many of the God Kings present were taken aback. Their divine sense surged and fixed on the figure that shot out in a black beam of light.

“What are you doing, mister Tian Qiu?!” a high-grade God King thundered.

Tian Qiu was a newly promoted high-grade God King, and many of them thought highly about him. However, no one expected him to attack one of their own at this critical moment!

A terrible rumble resounded through the air, and the black smoke spread. Tian Qiu did not slow down at all.

A look of disbelief emerged in the black-robed old man’s eyes. There was actually a spy in their city?!

Tian Qiu landed at the gatekeeper’s side. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly while his eyes took on a faint crimson color. Locking his gaze on the old man, he said, “Such strong flesh and blood… Old as it is, I can sense the intoxicating smell coming from your divine sense.”

The black-robed old man’s pupils constricted. Since he was in control of the Nine Revolutions Divine Emperor Array, he was completely immobilized at the moment.

A stream of blood suddenly spurted out. The gatekeeper felt a piercing pain in his divine sense. His eyes widened as he stared at Tian Qiu. Black smoke and tiny insect scales slowly emerged on the face of this gentle, promising young man.

“You…”

Tian Qiu took a deep breath with an intoxicated look.

The surrounding God Kings were stunned. They were totally unprepared for such a thing to happen!

BOOM!

Outside, the Thunder Dragon’s thunderbolts came crashing down. The defensive array that had lost the old man’s control was simply unable to withstand such an attack. With a deafening rumble, the entire array burst apart.

Bam!

The whole City of God Kings was completely shaken at this moment.

The Thunder Dragon threw his head back and roared, while the other huge Blood Beast Kings looked down on the city, their eyes filling with monstrous killing intent.

“Today is the day the City of God Kings will be destroyed!”

“Dammit!” The black-robed old man was boiling with rage. His Law of Space exploded and knocked Tian Qiu flying away. Then, he staggered back and sucked in a cold breath. He finally realized that Tian Qiu was not human.

‘The look in those eyes and those insect scales… What the hell is this guy?!’

Tian Qiu burst out laughing. He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, eager and impatient. As he swept the city with his scarlet eyes, he said, “So much food… I’m so excited!”

Everyone was stunned, shocked by Tian Qiu’s sudden betrayal.

Luo Sanniang, too, was dumbfounded and trembling. Suddenly, she remembered Bu Fang’s warning. It turned out that what he said was true. Had he already known about Tian Qiu’s true color?

She turned her head, wanting to see Bu Fang’s expression at the moment. However, her face suddenly changed because she saw that Bu Fang was missing.

“Where has he gone? Oh? Mister Bu…”

As she glanced around, she saw Bu Fang walk step by step up into midair and came to Tian Qiu’s side. She turned pale in an instant.

Tian Qiu was laughing, and he looked greedy and hungry. Suddenly, a strong smell of delicious food wafted toward him. His laughter stopped abruptly, his stomach began to turn, and a sickening feeling came over him.

The next moment, he saw a steaming oyster pancake swaying in front of him…
