Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1707 - 1712: The Human Race in Crisis
The Commander of the City of Fire, Yu Lin, is currently overwhelmed.
In at most another month, the Beast Clan will undoubtedly arrive.
Currently, he is the only Half-Step Consolidation Cultivator in the City of Fire.
In the past half year, the Western Region Human Race Cultivators have suffered heavy losses.
There is almost no strength left to send reinforcements.
Even the famous Martial Emperor was besieged and severely injured by the Beast Vein Experts, with the Beast Clan relying on an endless stream of powerful experts.
Relying on their indestructible resolute bodies, they have smashed open one city after another.
The Human Race is in grave danger...
Report!
At the Commander's Mansion in the City of Fire, Yu Lin was pacing in the hall, when a Guard Army soldier anxiously entered to report.
"Speak quickly! Have the cultivators of Jiaocheng City repelled the Beast Clan?"
Yu Lin asked with anticipation.
"Jiaocheng City has already been breached; tomorrow the Beast Vein will attack the City of Tomorrow!"
The City of Tomorrow!
"It's over, it's over! If the City of Tomorrow cannot be defended, next it will be us, the City of Fire!"
Yu Lin's heart and soul trembled incessantly.
Truly, the Human Race is in grave danger, in grave danger indeed.
The City of Tomorrow is considered a renowned city in the Western Region.
Also known as Ming City, its Commander Zhuge Liushui is considered a fierce general; with the help of cultivators from the Southeast Region, they should be able to hold on...
"Daoist Fellow, are you aware of the current situation in the Western Region?"
Just as Yu Lin's mood was anxious, a Spirit Sound suddenly floated in from outside the hall.
"Hmm? May I ask which Daoist Fellow you are?"
"I am unworthy, having just arrived from the Northern Region."
Saying so, a thin figure draped in a black robe walked up to the grand hall.
Not the slightest hint of energy leaked from him, yet each step he took declared an extraordinary and unparalleled state.
"A powerful one!"
With just one glance, Yu Lin ascertained that the newcomer must be a powerful expert from the Northern Region!
His cultivation surely surpassed his own.
In the Kunwu Realm now, there were no distinctions of East, West, South, or North; only Human Race and Beast Clan!
"Daoist Fellow, the situation in the Western Region is very precarious right now. The Beast Clan experts have invaded in large numbers, having taken several cities and will soon reach here. I hope Daoist Fellow can stay and help us."
Faced with such a powerful one, Yu Lin naturally would not give up.
With him in the City of Fire, the city could hold on for a few more days, allowing the well-known Martial Emperor to devise some strategies.
"Uh, can you tell me about the detailed situation?"
Xia Liu asked anxiously.
"Of course!"
Yu Lin did not refuse and first spoke of the crisis now faced by Ming City.
Then he elaborated on the battle situations elsewhere.
After a moment, Xia Liu was stunned in place.
He had not expected the Beast Clan's strength to far exceed expectations.
The Beast Vein within the Western Lands was capable of dispatching several groups to attack Western Region cities from different directions.
Xia Liu, familiar with the major city divisions of the Western Region, could see that the Beast Clan was invading in a very arrogant manner.
They planned to besiege the Imperial City from every corner.
One had to say, it was truly confident.
"What about the Martial Emperor? How is he?"
With such a massive number of cities taken, Xia Liu wanted to know what on earth the Martial Emperor was doing.
"The Martial Emperor was besieged by Beast Vein experts several months ago, nearly to death, and is now healing in the palace..."
One could hear the anger in Xia Liu's words, Yu Lin dared not deceive in any way.
"Indeed, the Martial Emperor's Energy Body could not suppress the Beast Clan experts, and severe injuries were inevitable."
"Alas! The Human Race truly faces a calamity this time..."
With a sigh, Yu Lin recalled something and suddenly said, "Daoist Fellow, you came from the Northern Region; have you heard of a name, Xia Liu."
"Uh, heard of it, why?"
"Daoist Fellow, you don't know, do you? Right now, the only one who can repel the Beast Clan and overthrow the Beast Vein is Xia Liu! Daoist Xia!"
"Oh, why do you say that?"
Xia Liu himself didn't know he possessed such great strength.
If he could indeed repel the Beast Clan, he wouldn't have nearly perished that day.
"More than half a year ago, Daoist Xia, with his own strength, injured the Beast Vein King, wielded the Divine Palm Sword, controlled the Imperial Sky Dragon, shocking the heavens and earth at the Northern Border Frontier, eventually winning us a month's time. Unfortunately, despite the emergence of many powerful Human Race people, there are few who can match the Beast Clan experts..." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Upon saying the last part, Yu Lin was full of sighs.
Perhaps because of the recent calm, the Human Race experts had forgotten about the war.
They forgot that the Human Race had always been mired in dire straits.
"Actually, the Human Race is not unable to resist the Beast Clan, possibly just because there's no method."
"Daoist Fellow, I implore you to stay and contribute your strength to the City of Fire and this land."
Yu Lin thought of nothing else, with only one thought: for Xia Liu to stay.
"I cannot stay long, as other places need me more. If Ming City cannot hold, we will meet again."
"Yes! If not for needing to guard the City of Fire, I would surely follow Daoist Fellow to Ming City."
Yu Lin's greatest fear was Xia Liu shirking from battle; if he was heading to Ming City, that was certainly good.
"I know your responsibility. Before the Beast Vein army arrives, I hope no crisis occurs in the City of Fire."
Xia Liu nodded and turned to walk out of the hall.
"Commander of the Guard Army of the City of Fire, Yu Lin, respectfully sends off Daoist Fellow."
Just as Xia Liu was about to fly away, Yu Lin shouted, "Daoist Fellow, what is your name? So that we might recognize each other when we meet in the future."
"Xia Liu."
Responding in a single line, Xia Liu quickly departed with Sword Control.
He needed to head to Ming City as soon as possible, hoping the Beast Clan experts hadn't broken through yet.
"Xia Liu? That name sounds so familiar; I've definitely heard it somewhere before."
Yu Lin scratched his head, suddenly unable to recall where he had heard that name before.
"Commander! He said he is... Xia Liu..."
Beside him, the Guard Army soldier reporting the battle situation trembled.
"Yes, so what?"
"Has the Commander forgotten? The legendary savior of the Western Region, isn't he Daoist Xia Liu?"
"Thump!"
Yu Lin stumbled and fell to the ground.
Xia Liu!
Xia Liu finally appeared!
"The Human Race has hope! The Human Race has hope!"
Yu Lin was extremely excited, his whole being turning abnormal.
Ming City.
The Guard Army lined up, filling the entire city wall.
They stretched out their hands, continuously channeling their Spiritual Energy into the City Defense Dharma Formation.
In the rear, Xue Ao, Elder Guang, Liu Ping, and other powerful figures from the Southeast Region held their breath, awaiting.
They must conserve their strength.
If the Array was breached, they would unleash their full power, fighting the Beast Clan to protect the Low-Rank Cultivators in their escape.
Even if it meant sacrificing themselves, they would not hesitate.
"Everyone, do you think Daoist Xia will appear?"
Atop the city wall, amidst the holding their breath of the powerful figures, a soft voice spread like the wind.
The words Daoist Xia cast all of them into silence.
In the depths of their minds appeared that unparalleled figure.
"Young one, Daoist Xia might still be in seclusion. If he recovers, he will certainly come forth."
Liu Ping responded.
"This Elder, can you tell me about Daoist Xia?"
Yan Xiao had escaped from one of the captured cities.
He always knew of this legendary figure, Daoist Xia, but no one had ever mentioned the details to him...
