Chapter 617: The City Lord Of Aeropolis City (Part 4)
He was on the verge of explosiveness every minute and second.
He could restrain himself only because the City Lords prohibited him from leaving the city.
Otherwise, Commander Dregodan would have already gone out to find that human cultivator.
But it was understandable.
Commander Dregodan and Commander Kigran had grown up together since childhood.
With Kigran’s fate uncertain until now, Dregodan’s mood was understandably sour.
Despite the reassurances from other commanders that Commander Kigran might still be alive, everyone knew, including Dregodan himself, that the likelihood of Kigran being alive was very low.
"If he’s still alive, even if he’s seriously injured, he won’t take this long to come back," Dregodan said in a calm voice.
"Dregodan, you’ve been sitting here for a day already. Do you still intend to continue waiting?" Commander Mozzeron approached and asked him.
"I’m waiting for Kigran to return," Dregodan replied expressionlessly.
Mozzeron sighed, "Actually, deep down, you should know that Kigran can’t possibly come back."
"Impossible. Kigran must still be alive. If the city lord didn’t forbid me from leaving the city, I wouldn’t be sitting here," Dregodan said stubbornly. "If that human cultivator comes again, don’t stop me."
"The city lord is here. How could he possibly dare to come again?" Mozzeron dismissed.
"In any case, don’t stop me," Dregodan insisted.
"Alright, alright. I won’t stop you," Mozzeron replied casually and dismissively.
They were already prepared this time, and unless the opponent was foolish, they wouldn’t come again.
As soon as he finished speaking, a streak of sword energy suddenly flew over from the front.
The faces of the two leader-level Devil changed.
Dregodan’s face lit up with joy as he swiftly drew his own sword and slashed out.
The sword aura clashed and canceled out with the incoming sword energy.
As the smoke cleared, a dark figure stood in the distance sky, his robes fluttering like the Black Devil King.
"It’s him, he’s finally here!"
Dregodan recognized the familiar white silhouette, the same one Kigran had chased yesterday.
Without hesitation, he dashed forward.
"Dregodan!"
Mozzeron shouted loudly, but it was too late; Dregodan had already rushed out some distance.
Opposite them, Kenny Lin hadn’t even had time to provoke before the leader-level Devil charged at him,l and closing the distance between them in less than ten seconds.
Is this a trap?
Kenny Lin wondered suspiciously but didn’t stop his actions.
He swung his sword again and then turned around to run.
The Devil received the blow and chased him without hesitation.
If this were a trap, Kenny Lin couldn’t sense the presence of the City Lord of Aeropolis City.
If it wasn’t a trap, then there was something wrong with the leader-level Devil chasing after him.
What was the connection between this Devil and the one from yesterday?
Kenny Lin smiled as he thought about it, finding it more convenient not to waste words with them.
On the other side, Mozzeron watched helplessly as Dregodan rushed out, not daring to disobey the City Lord’s orders.
He could only report the matter to the City Lord.
This time, Kenny Lin didn’t even need to create much disturbance; the Devil took the bait proactively.
So much so that the City Lord of Aeropolis City initially thought it was just a minor issue.
Only after his subordinate’s report came did he realize it was the same human cultivator as yesterday.
"They’re hunting leader-level Devils. Watch over Aeropolis City, I’ll be back soon," the City Lord said, quickly chasing after him.
Meanwhile, Amalia noticed that Kenny Lin had quickly lured a leader-level Devil over and was quite surprised.
Were the Devils of Aeropolis City really this easy to be deceived?
"Be careful," Kenny Lin said, breaking through the Devil’s defenses with a single strike.
He thought the Devil would retreat upon realizing he was stronger than him, but to his surprise, he continued to pursue him without hesitation.
Amalia knew that as long as they could deal with this Devil before the City Lord of Aeropolis City arrived, they would be fine.
"You be careful too."
After Kenny Lin left, Dregodan followed him, but he didn’t see Kenny Lin and became even more enraged, "Where is he? Where is the human cultivator who killed Kigran?"
Kigran?
Amalia guessed that the Kigran he mentioned was the Devil she had killed yesterday.
Understanding why this Devil was so easily deceived, she said coldly, "Beat me, and I’ll tell you."
She then attacking him as she spoke.
"I’ll kill you! You’ll join Kigran in death!"
Dregodan’s fury boiled over, obliterating his reason.
His green face grew even more menacing.
Amalia’s strike didn’t injure him, but his burning rage seemed to enhance his strength slightly.
Amalia was momentarily surprised but quickly realized that this Devil had some confidence to come here alone, knowing it could be a trap.
At th same time, the City Lord of Aeropolis City whose rushing to the scene, didn’t notice Kenny Lin, who had already returned and was now hiding.
The City Lord flew over his head without detecting him.
Once the City Lord was far away enough, Kenny Lin emerged, glanced in the direction the City Lord had gone, and then swiftly headed toward Aeropolis City, moving even faster than the City Lord.
The outline of Aeropolis City came into view.
With the City Lord and a leader-level Devil absent, the city’s defenses were tighter than before.
Drawing on his experience from destroying Sunshadow City, Kenny Lin knew these Devils would have a treasure vault.
He infiltrated Aeropolis City and began searching.
Whenever he encountered a Devil, he killed them, stored their bodies in a storage bag, and destroyed any evidence.
Even if other Devils noticed the absence of their comrades, they would likely assume they were slacking off somewhere, indirectly buying Kenny Lin more time.
Until more Devils disappeared, the patrolling guards realized something was wrong and immediately reported it.
Mozzeron rushed over with his subordinates.
"What’s going on?"
"Commander, we don’t know why. One moment, everyone was here, and the next, they vanished. We can’t find them anywhere," the trembling Devil guard replied.
"There’s an intruder! Search immediately! All ordinary Devils are not allowed to leave their posts!"
Mozzeron’s face darkened as he shouted the orders.
