Chapter 1017: Deep Underground
The ones who floated above Mercenary City were members of the upper echelon of Mercenary City They were all elders, and even the weakest of them was a Saint Ruler
“Grand elder, just what has happened…”
“Our city has the protective power of the barrier, and it’s extreh How has it ended up like this now…”
“Has the barrier of our city disappeared…”
…
All the elders fell into a discussion, as they stared at the city riddled with huge cracks They felt extremely suspicious and curious about the incident that Mercenary City had suffered as well as sorand elder sternly stared at the huge cracks that covered all the streets and alleys He too felt confused, unsure what exactly that had happened to Mercenary City and why it was like this now
Suddenly, Tian Jian seeh his eyes, and he thought, “Has so happened to the barrier spirit?” His face iht of that possibility Mo Tianyun left the barrier spirit behind here all those years ago Its existence was extremely iod of Mercenary City If so really happened to the barrier spirit, it would definitely be an extremely heavy hit to Mercenary City
“It’s a pity that I can’t communicate with the barrier spirit on my own initiative I wonder what has happened to Mercenary City If only Jian Chen was here Though a great battle has just erupted in the direction of the Cross Mountains There were ical beast Saint Es, the two ht the Saint Eain Jian Chen should also be nearby if that’s really the case,” thought Tian Jian He had sensed the battle in the Cross Mountains earlier and wanted to go have a look However, Mercenary City suddenly began to shake violently, so he had to stay behind
At this moment, several tremendous presences appeared outside and rapidly approached the city with lightning speed
Tian Jian’s gaze froze, and he quickly looked toward the direction of the presences He could not help but sht time I just happened to need him to communicate with the barrier spirit and see what just has happened to Mercenary City”
Jian Chen, Houston, Rui Jin, Hei Yu, and Hong Lian flew over froazes becae barrier above the city A sliver of respect appeared in Houston, Rui Jin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu’s eyes It was the respect for the strong
They all knew that barrier spirit was the little girl who had surpassed Saint E’s true identity To hi was a spirit of the earth or a barrier spirit It was no longer i really has happened here now that all the people of Mercenary City are in a panic” Jian Chen noticed the difference in Mercenary City from afar and his brows iroup s, they directly proceeded to the main topic
“Senior Tian Jian, may I ask just what has happened with Mercenary City? Why has it become like this?” Jian Chen asked, as he looked at the messy Mercenary City
“We don’t know either You can only ask the barrier spirit if you want to learn just what has happened today Jian Chen, you have a close relationship with the barrier spirit I hope you can communicate with the barrier spirit and ask what caused the incident with Mercenary City,” Tian Jian asked sternly
“I’ll try,” replied Jian Chen A sliver of uneasiness appeared in his heart for soht amount some secretive matters Mo Tianyun had told hi’s naet any response this tirihts He had already connected the unforeseen event of Mercenary City and Xiao Ling’s loss of composure earlier to the seal beneath Mercenary City Some problem must have happened to it
“Senior Tian Jian, I am unable to help you this time,” Jian Chen said rather dejectedly He furrowed his brows fro’s safety
“Sigh,” Tian Jian exhaled deeply He raised his head to look at the huge barrier that was still present, and he too furrowed his brows tightly Since Mo Tianyun founded Mercenary City, it had gone through the wind and the rain, but soht in Jian Chen’s eyes flickered for a while He was hesitating over whether he should tell Tian Jian and the others about the seal, so that they could mentally prepare themselves
At this moment, an invisible force suddenly surrounded Jian Chen Before Jian Chen could even react, it bound hi speed
“Jian Chen!” Rui Jin cried out He irab Jian Chen
However, Jian Chen just fell too quickly Even with Rui jin’s strength, he could not grab him In that instant, an invisible forced pulled Jian Chen to the ground Then, he directly disappeared into the ground as everyone watched on in shock It left behind noLian, and Houston all changed when they saw that They glanced at each other before they all descended as if they had a tacit understanding of each other They wanted to blast open the ground to save Jian Chen
“Please wait!” Tian Jian obstructed them and said, “There’s no need to worry, everyone Mercenary City is protected by the barrier spirit, so outsiders cannot harm Jian Chen in here at all Since Jian Chen is close with the barrier spirit, I assume that it’s extremely likely that it was the barrier spirit itself that pulled Jian Chen into the ground”
