Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 1920 - 1940: Isn’t This Too Exaggerated?_1

Mosquitoes besieging a city, driving countless demon cultivators to abandon it and flee?

Even the powerhouses of the Heavenly Fox Palace couldn’t withstand a swarm of mosquitoes, even a Fairy was drained dry?

What kind of mosquitoes?

Are they that formidable?

The middle-aged man replied, "I’m not entirely sure either. I only heard that the one commanding these mosquitoes is a black mosquito, larger than a mountain. However, that’s just a rumor. Whether it’s accurate or not, I don’t know..."

Lin Chen asked a few more queries, but he then let them go.

"What kind of mosquito is this powerful? Sister Ziyun, have you ever heard of them?"

Purple Cloud Immortal Lord shook her head: "Although any living thing in this world can become a demon, a mosquito demon is not a particularly unique existence. However, I have never heard of such a ferocious mosquito... Shall we go have a look?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Nalan is there, of course we have to go and see. Wasn’t it said that she’s trapped? Let’s lend a hand."

Lin Chen is now truly fearless. Not to mention the presence of the super powerhouse, Purple Cloud Immortal Lord, but the Tower of Linglong is also available. What is there to fear?!

Whether we can win or not, the defense of the Linglong Tower is unbeatable. With it, I can escape into the Linglong Tower at any moment. At least in the Thunder Immortal Domain, I’m afraid there’s no one who can stop the escape of Linglong Tower.

If so, what is there to worry about?

"Let’s go then!"

The two were heading towards Cangyun City. Along the way, they encountered many fleeing demon cultivators, as well as many commercial flying boats. The vessels were crowded with people, dragging families along, all were fleeing.

Lin Chen frowned, "Surely all those who could afford to leave by commercial boat are somewhat wealthy? The poorest people, at the social base, would unlikely be able to afford a ride on a flying boat, right? And it seems to me that most of them are members of the human race?"

Purple Cloud Immortal Lord nodded, "To awaken spiritual wisdom, to shape-shift, a demon cultivator must, in effect, reach our equivalent of the Nascent Soul Realm. Demon cultivators of this realm are obviously not going to be ordinary civilians, so all of the base population of any city belongs to the human race."

"The demon race rules the human race, treating the humans as their servants. They make the humans build their cities, cultivate their land, produce their goods, etc. Then the demon race strictly controls the cultivation resources. Without the cultivation resources, the human race will never be able to become powerhouses. Even if occasionally some of the humans do go against the grain, they are often either co-opted or annihilated by the demons."

"There are actually quite a lot of humans in the Heavenly Demon Continent. But because they are suppressed, they never have a chance to rise. At least on the Immortal Path, they have no way out."

Lin Chen, after a moment of silence asked, "Are their lives safe?"

"It depends."

Purple Cloud Immortal Lord replied, "Each force ruling a city has a different attitude towards the human clan. Some only restrict their access to cultivation resources strictly, without controlling other things—they are no different from ordinary citizens. Some, however, treat the humans as slaves, utterly disregarding their lives... It’s about luck to survive."

On the fate of the human race in the Heavenly Demon Continent, Lin Chen felt a bit of sorrow. But even he was powerless to change it.

He is not a saint.

Soon afterwards, they arrived at Cangyun City.

Cangyun City was a sprawling stronghold, but it was now caught in an eerily peculiar situation.

From a distance, the sky was blood-red, encasing Cangyun City. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

And as they got closer, they realized with horrid shock that the sky—all bloody—was actually creeping!

Getting even closer, they could clearly see that the bloody sky was formed by countless blood-red mosquitoes—a huge swath of red color undulating and dancing across the sky, blotting out the sun.

"While these mosquitoes are numerous, they’re not enough to trouble the demon cultivators, keeping them from escaping, are they?"

Purple Cloud Immortal Lord answered, "There’s definitely something strange about this swarm of mosquitoes. Be careful."

The most reliable course of action would naturally be to take refuge inside the Linglong Tower. But Lin Chen wanted to see just how formidable these mosquitoes were.

"Let’s enter the city."

A golden light shield appeared around the two, like a sphere, shielding them within and emanating a terrifying pressure.

They marched towards the swarm of mosquitoes in the sky. To Lin Chen’s astonishment, such a formidable pressure could scare a tiger or lion into rolling away, shivering, yet these mosquitoes seemed to have no feeling at all.

Something is strange!

As the pair approached the swirling swarm of mosquitoes, the mosquitoes naturally noticed these two uninvited intruders and swarmed towards them in an instant.

As the mosquitoes swarmed around them, Lin Chen suddenly felt a chilling sensation in his heart.

He felt as if someone was watching him with an evil gaze so wicked and venomous that it sent chills down his spine.

Was it the mosquito as big as a mountain?

Lin Chen looked left and right but could not see any mosquitoes as big as a mountain. All he saw were swarms of mosquitoes in the sky.

Lin Chen examined the mosquitoes surrounding him. Each mosquito was quite large, about the size of a fist, had a blood-red body, and glittered like metal. They looked similar to ordinary mosquitoes, only bigger by hundreds, or even thousands of times.

Lin Chen suddenly realized that the evil gaze seemed to come from right in front of his eyes.

It was not emanating from any single mosquito, but from every single one, collectively!

The gaze of these mosquitoes was evil, filled with icy malice, as they coldly stared at Lin Chen much like sentient beings.
