Chapter 470: Chapter 310: Armor of Godly Light! [Second Update!]

Inner City, North Gate.

Being in the Inner City, with the entire Outer City acting as a "barrier," the City Defense Army seldom faces the evil creatures during the ghostly nights.

In the past, it had been the Deputy Commanders who took turns guarding.

Even the North Gate City Defense Commander rarely guarded in person.

But today, Deputy City Governor Shi personally came to guard this gate.

"What are you looking at?" Just then, a Deputy Commander said in a low voice, "Tonight, the Deputy City Governor is personally guarding the North Gate, surely because you were negligent in your recent night duties! Now that the Deputy City Governor has come himself, he is here to inspect whether we fulfill our duties... Aren’t you going to patrol the defenses?"

"Yes," the Colonel responded softly.

"..."

Deputy City Governor Shi’s expression was neutral as he quietly watched ahead.

This evening, he had received news that Wu Chang had arrived at Prefecture City.

He also learned that this lad was breaking the rules—no prior notification, no transfer documents, and with no official business; he was to be expelled from the city the next day.

He had two sons, especially his eldest, who was outstanding and hoped to advance to Qi Refining Realm.

But both sons died at the hands of Wu Chang.

In High Willow City, he had harbored murderous intent more than once.

But whether it was the High Willow City Guard Mansion, Liu Zun Temple, the Observatory, or old ghost Mr. Lu and the like, everyone wanted to save this Wu Chang.

Even when he reluctantly collaborated with Tribulation Ash, he did not manage to completely obliterate his foe.

Yet now, his opponent had come to Prefecture City, under his jurisdiction.

"Brother, will he really come?" Beside him stood the Great Commander of the Inner City North Gate, his expression solemn.

"It is said that Mr. Lu had an old favor with the Li Shen Sect, and this time the Li Shen Sect has sent a significant gift," Deputy City Governor Shi spoke slowly. "His visit to Prefecture City is on behalf of Mr. Lu to claim this great gift!"

"But there are those who don’t want him to take this gift!" said the Great Commander of the Inner City North Gate in a low voice. "So today at the city gate, they take this opportunity to drive him away?"

"Exactly," Deputy City Governor Shi nodded.

"Did you orchestrate the confrontation where Wu Chang, unknowingly, drew his sword against the Colonel of the Outer North Headquarters?" the Great Commander pondered.

"I cut off his source of information," Deputy City Governor Shi said coldly. "As long as Wu Chang committed the crime of killing the Colonel in the street, under everyone’s gaze, the Observatory couldn’t protect him!"

"Yet, he still didn’t draw his sword and instead stayed in the city," the Great Commander remarked.

"These days, the Great City Guard seems to have a significant grievance against the Observatory,"

Deputy City Governor Shi said, "Wu Chang’s visit was irregular, so the Observatory can’t protect him."

At this point, he scoffed and said, "That Deputy Commander, who was once ruthlessly impartial, insisted on convicting my child and exiling him to the Residual Prison Mansion."

"I thought he was truly impartial and would directly expel Wu Chang from the city."

"Tonight, my original intent was to destroy the Pure Land outside the city and completely bury him."

"Unexpectedly, the Observatory, against pressure, allowed him one more night."

"But with him staying tonight, he must leave tomorrow, and he won’t get his hands on the gift,"

Deputy City Governor Shi continued, "But this man is domineering and arrogant, overconfident in his abilities, committed to what he promised to old ghost Mr. Lu! I’m certain he will come tonight!"

The Great Commander at the Inner City North Gate said softly, "The matter of the Three Gods Valley was initially classified as confidential, but due to the magnitude of the commotion, it couldn’t be concealed, and I learned today that Wu Chang also participated in that battle!"

In intelligence, the clash at the Three Gods Valley was jointly orchestrated by Mr. Lu, Wu Chang, Lv Tang, a great demon, and a newly accepted disciple of Mr. Lu.

The specifics are still not public.

But each of the three Great Divine Venerables possesses Old God’s Magical Objects, endowed with Refining God’s Power!

Especially that Great Divine Venerable, who is extremely vicious and evil, comparable to a Refining God Realm entity, owning a Divine Bow, along with abundant incense... he is extremely powerful, nearly exceeding the tier of utmost viciousness and evil.

Across the Three Prefecture, there are few among the Human Clan strong enough to slay the Great Divine Venerable.

Even if Wu Chang isn’t the main force, his eligibility to participate in this battle shows his high ability, likely exceeding the normal scope of the Qi Refining Realm!

"I suspect this lad possesses Old God’s Magical Objects and has also acquired Refining God’s Power!" said the North Gate Great Commander with a grave expression. "If he comes, are you confident you can defeat him?"

"Have you forgotten that our Shi family’s ancestor also once held an important position in the Holy Land?"

Deputy City Governor Shi spoke calmly, "I possess the peak cultivation of the Qi Refinement Realm, along with the Deputy City Governor’s Token, coupled with your soldiers’ military formation... and also the ancestral artifact passed down by my forebears!"

This artifact, though not an Old God’s Magical Object, is exceedingly exceptional, crafted by the Artifact Refining lineage of the Holy Land six hundred years ago. To this day, it remains listed among the top ten magic artifacts of the Refining Hall, nearing the tier of a "Divine Weapon."

This treasure is enshrined in the Shi Family ancestral home as the heirloom, the foundation of the family for hundreds of years, managed by successive family heads.

Before he left Prefecture City for High Willow City, he did not carry this treasure.

Because ancestral teachings strictly decree,

to avoid family rulers dealing outside the city facing the risk of perishing, leading to the loss of the treasure, so it could only be used within Prefecture City for the family’s cause.

Indeed, in this age of ghostly nights, even true Refining God Realm beings risk colossal dangers outside.

"In High Willow City, local powers tried their best to protect him. I couldn’t make a move,"

Deputy City Governor Shi spoke indifferently, "But since he has come onto my turf, even if old ghost Mr. Lu accompanies him, today... I will take his head and present it before the ancestral spirit tablets of my Shi family!"
