Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 104: Chapter 103: The Fall of the King

The commotion caused by the cultivators on the street soon came to an end.

After listening to the other stewards talk about the happenings in Profound Yang City and appeasing the citizens, Lin You returned to his territory with his species.

The people on the street finally breathed a sigh of relief and gathered to discuss in hushed tones.

“So strong! Is this the strength of the Yellow Sand City Lord?”

“Ten Tier Six cultivators couldn’t even resist!”

“And the number of plants, it’s too exaggerated!”

“No wonder he could resurrect Yellow Sand City; just this power is far beyond the other nearby lords.”

“Looks like Yellow Sand City is really about to rise…”

Many on the street had just received news and rushed from other cities to investigate or seek business opportunities.

But they hadn’t expected Lin You’s power to be so terrifying.

His show of strength earlier was enough to deter many with ill intentions from causing trouble in the city.

This also revealed to them the massive potential of Yellow Sand City to develop into a large city!

So after the discussions, many immediately sought Xue Changgui to discuss long-term cooperation, and some trade convoys even rented a plot to open a branch in Yellow Sand City.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Changgui became one of the hottest figures in Yellow Sand City.

Even Wei Gang and several other stewards were visited by many people, gifting them, trying to build relationships.

Because they knew that these veterans who had been working under Lin You during Yellow Sand City’s hardest times would undoubtedly become the pillars of the city.

To get a share of Yellow Sand City’s pie, they had to build relationships early.

Xue Changgui and the others had never experienced such a thing before.

Instantly, their faces were bright with pride.

Yet they hadn’t forgotten Lin You’s instructions and continued to work impartially without a hint of slacking.

As time passed, the pedestrians gradually dispersed, and the streets returned to their usual bustling state.

But no one noticed.

In the alley beside the incident site, a sneaky figure lurked there, constantly observing the street’s movements.

Only after everyone had dispersed did the figure leave the alley, hurriedly heading towards the city outskirts with a smile of cunning success at the corner of his mouth.

“A bunch of idiots, so easy to take the bait, I better hurry to report this.”

His speed was fast, even notably faster than an ordinary Tier Six cultivator, and seemed well-versed in stealth techniques, easily bypassing the city gate guards, speeding away from Yellow Sand City.

Meanwhile, several hundred meters above.

Lin You sat on the Demon Consort Dragon’s back, watching the swiftly moving figure below, his eyes gradually narrowed.

“Finally showing your hand?”

As the words fell, Demon Consort Dragon concealed its aura, secretly tailing that figure, following for nearly a hundred kilometers until a strange city gradually appeared in Lin You’s view.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Mo Yuan City, one of the three cities near Yellow Sand City!

“Just as expected…”

Lin You’s gaze instantly deepened.

Even when he found the token, he realized something was off.

Because the evidence came far too easily!

Luckily, he was cautious, or he might’ve been an unsuspecting victim, embroiled in conflict with Profound Yang City.

The Lord of Mo Yuan City, truly has a conniving mind.

After deeply observing the city gates from afar, Lin You urged Demon Consort Dragon to turn back, heading towards the territory.

He now knew too little about Mo Yuan City, certainly couldn’t act rashly, needing further investigation.

Anyway, the culprit has been identified, there’s no rush, as the opponent’s probing surely implies caution, not daring to make a move.

He could meanwhile cultivate a few Tier Seven and investigate Mo Yuan City’s situation before taking action.

Moreover, he could accumulate more resources over these few days.

Speaking of which, didn’t the King of Great Wilderness say he would issue rewards according to the number of kills?

Why haven’t there been any updates?

Suddenly, Lin You recalled the matter King Ji Xinghe mentioned on the regional channel before heading to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms.

They had already been back from the Battlefield for quite a while, yet no commotion whatsoever.

Could it be his kill count didn’t qualify?

Curious, Lin You immediately opened the regional channel to check it out.

What he saw was unexpected; what he saw amazed him.

The regional channel was entirely discussing matters related to the king, and there was only one topic of discussion.

That is…

The King of Great Wilderness, he’s injured!

And he’s severely injured!

This shocked Lin You,

Who is the King of Great Wilderness?

A Tier Ten Lord!

Not some random unknown!

Even he suffered severe injuries, how terrifying must the one who inflicted such damage on him be?

Lin You was extremely shocked and quickly checked further.

Just as he had suspected, during his time in the Tier Ten battlefield, Ji Xinghe was besieged by four Tier Ten Lords from other realms and, ultimately, couldn’t withstand it, fleeing in defeat, leaving many of his troops dead and wounded.

Luckily, he had formidable skills, finally escaping back.

This information was leaked by several Tier Nine Lords from the Angel Type, who were urgently summoned to heal Ji Xinghe, and absolutely wasn’t falsified.

As soon as the news spread, it immediately caused an uproar.

“Even the king sustained severe injuries? Isn’t the Tier Ten battlefield way too terrifying?”

“Four lords besieging at once, could it be targeted?”

“Very likely, look at the world channel, almost all are pessimistic, seemingly reflecting Primitive Continent’s poor performance in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms.”

“Even Tier Ten is severely injured, how could it be any better?”

Tier Ten Lords are different from Tier Six Lords, not to be sacrificed lightly.

As the top-strength forces on Primitive Continent, losing even one would deeply impact their realm.

Very clearly, this time there are other realms targeting their realm.

Otherwise, such frequent calamities wouldn’t have occurred.

Even their fate was deprived, and the entire Primitive Continent faced a crisis of destruction.

Things were more severe than he imagined…

Lin You’s expression grew heavy.

The situation on Primitive Continent is even worse than he anticipated.

With things continuing like this, they might indeed face the danger of dissipated fate, realm destruction, and people perishing.

While Lin You was engulfed in these somber truths.

Far atop a mountain peak thousands of kilometers away.

A group gathered in a towering palace, all of them visibly furious, cursing relentlessly.

“True Spirit Realm is just too despicable! Using such underhanded tactics against us!”

“Exactly! Colluding with Primordial Evil Realm, isn’t it obvious they want to steal our fate?”

“Four Tier Ten Lords, this was clearly premeditated!”

“Originally, we and Primordial Evil Realm were antagonistic, now with the True Spirit Realm joining, they truly mean to eradicate us.”

The individuals in the palace radiated an unimaginably terrifying aura.

The imposing man on the throne had an overwhelming presence.

Merely sitting there seemed to freeze the entire world, with deeply profound eyes calmly observing the dispute below.

This person.

Is none other than the King of Great Wilderness Duchy, Ji Xinghe!

And those below him are the influential Tier Nine Lords under Ji Xinghe, responsible for managing the duchy’s practical affairs!

Yet these influential figures now seemed like bickering civilians, spewing profanities, faces full of outrage.

“Enough.”

Finally, Ji Xinghe spoke.

His deep yet commanding voice instantly silenced all lords below, who looked up at him.

“The True Spirit Realm and Primordial Evil Realm have been adjacent to us, frequently and recently interacting, with signs of collusion long ago, it’s just unexpected it happened so soon.”

“This time we lost so many Tier Tens, Celestial Flame King and Moonlight King even died in battle, Saint Radiance King won’t easily let this go.”

“Saint Radiance King!?”

The lords below collectively shuddered, pupils abruptly tightened, as if they heard something deeply terrifying.
