Chapter 1258: Chapter 693: Cangwu Chapter 1258: Chapter 693: Cangwu “Could it be… could it be that you are that…?”

A guard’s voice trembled, seemingly eager to confirm yet afraid to directly state that possible identity.

Logan gently shook his head, not answering directly.

He knew all too well the shock and trouble his identity would cause if revealed.

Thus, he simply said,

“Who I am is not important, what’s important is the message I bring. The tremors of the Ancient Barrier are not a coincidence, but a harbinger of some impending change.

Your City Lord will understand the stakes if he is perceptive.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts filled with even greater shock.

Although they were unclear about Logan’s precise identity, they could sense an unusual confidence and unfathomable strength from his words. They began to believe that this seemingly indifferent man before them might indeed hold critical information capable of changing the current situation.

Just then, the door curtain to the inner chamber was gently lifted, and the City Lord, dressed in casual attire, hurried out. His eyes, upon meeting Logan’s, could not help but narrow slightly. As the supreme ruler of the city, his extraordinary knowledge and keen intuition allowed him to feel the unusual aura emanating from Logan.

“Are you the Transcendent who escaped from the Ancient Barrier?” the City Lord quickly walked forward, his voice a mix of awe and curiosity, “I am the Lord of this city, may I know your esteemed business here?”

Logan nodded slightly, acknowledging his identity. He looked directly into the City Lord’s eyes and slowly said, “I am here to provide you with information critical for the safety of this city and the entire Mainland. The tremors of the Ancient Barrier are just the start; the real Storm is about to arrive. If you wish to protect your people, you must prepare and brace for the challenge that is coming.”

The City Lord’s expression turned grave upon hearing this. He knew Logan’s words were no falsehood. The tremors of the Ancient Barrier had already given him a premonition of the looming crisis. Now, this Strong One from the Ancient Barrier was undoubtedly key to obtaining more information and formulating a response strategy.

“Please come with me,” the City Lord gestured invitingly, “Let’s discuss this in the inner chamber.”

Logan nodded, followed the City Lord into the inner chamber. As the door curtain fell, those outside could only faintly hear the murmurs of deep conversation, unable to glean the secrets held within. They only knew that this sudden meeting might change the fate of everyone involved.

Inside the inner chamber, Logan detailed his experiences within the Ancient Barrier and the crisis he sensed was approaching. The City Lord, captivated, nodded occasionally in agreement. He knew that he had to act fast to protect his people and the city from the looming Storm.

And Logan, through his conversation with the City Lord, gradually clarified his own goals and direction. He knew that although he had escaped the Ancient Barrier, the real challenges were just beginning. He needed to find more allies to confront the approaching crisis together to protect the peace and tranquility of The World.

The unexpected meeting ended in a tense and solemn atmosphere. When Logan left the City Lord’s Mansion, his gaze was firmer as if he had seen the dawn of the future. The guards and servants watching him depart were filled with awe and anticipation. They knew this Strong One who had escaped the Ancient Barrier might indeed lead them to a brighter future.

Seeing Logan’s Transcendent aura, they couldn’t help but feel a surge of indescribable reverence. His presence seemed out of place in this world, echoing an age and depth that transcended time. No wonder they did not recognize him; Logan was a Strong One from Ancient Times, his age far surpassing that of the city and many of the ancient Family Clans on the Mainland. How could such an existence be casually compared to theirs?

“It’s unbelievable that this Big Shot is actually a remnant from the Ancient Times, a noble among Demon Beasts!” A guard exclaimed in a low voice, eyes glinting with admiration, “Even though he has broken the Seal, he still retains the level of a Demigod, that majesty and power, it’s just too strong.”

The people around nodded, having never seen such a powerful being before. Logan’s appearance seemed to open a door to an unknown world for them.

Logan surveyed his surroundings, his gaze profound, as if he could see through everything. “After spending so much time within the Barrier, I have come to realize just how weak all the Humans here are.” He sighed softly, and although his voice was gentle, it struck the listeners’ hearts with the weight of a hammer.

“We may diligently practice Cultivation, but compared to you, we are still lacking,” a guard said, lowering his head in shame, his voice tinged with self-reproach.

“Yes, we, in front of you, are as insignificant as ants,” another person echoed, their eyes filled with reverence and admiration for Logan.

Logan smiled faintly; he did not let the praise go to his head. On the contrary, he was well aware of the endless loneliness and responsibility that come with power. “You need not reproach yourselves too much; the path of Cultivation is long and arduous, and to have come this far is already commendable,” he said with an encouraging tone.

“You escaped from the Ancient Barrier, and you must have been a prominent Big Shot even in the Ancient Times,” a guard ventured timidly, asking, “How can our existence, mere ants, even compare to you? That would be an exaggeration!”
