It can be imagined that the potential enemy must have somehow managed to send a merchant convoy ahead of them and arrived at Feather City first, successfully launching a surprise attack on the city's defenders!
Now they had finally achieved their goal. As soon as the defenders of Feather City saw their arrival and identified themselves, they wasted no time in launching a fierce assault!
This was not like any ordinary day; several of the top experts in the city were stationed there, so this wave of attacks was powerful enough to pose a substantial threat to top-tier experts like Mr. Fan!
Therefore, it was impossible for them to spare any effort to shield those ordinary warriors from the onslaught. In just a few moments, their merchant convoy suffered heavy losses, with each wave of attacks bringing forth a rain of blood and shattering the carts they had worked so hard to bring here!
"Those bastards! They can't tell friend from foe! Let's fight back!" One warrior exclaimed, seeing that after enduring numerous dangers along the way, they had finally reached their destination. However, unexpectedly, their comrades who fought alongside them did not die at the hands of the enemies but instead fell victim to the very allies they desperately sought to rescue!
That kind of rage and feeling of betrayal burned in their hearts.
Wang Long sensed the situation was dire and quickly shouted, "Don't act rashly! We need to..."
But he had little authority within the group; how could those warriors blinded by anger listen to him? Five or six warriors charged to the front, blocking incoming attacks while unleashing their offensive treasures!
Three Flying Swords, one Purple Light, and two Thunderbolt Spheres simultaneously struck towards the walls of Feather City.
However, their strength was simply too lacking. Even though they were elite warriors selected for this mission, facing the full defensive power of the city walls rendered their efforts nearly futile. The six combined could only injure two defenders in the end.
But this strike served as a catalyst—look, these people are indeed enemies in disguise; otherwise, why would they retaliate?—and several top experts stationed on the city walls finally converged. Under their combined might, a sword aura capable of cutting through all things, all emptiness, and all spirits surged toward the six warriors!
Everyone stared in shock at this overwhelming strike; there was no way those six warriors could withstand its might!
At that moment, a figure suddenly flashed forward.
Wang Long coldly watched as the sword energy pierced straight toward him.
He did not care about the life or death of the six warriors, but he knew he had to find a way to either establish authority or reason with them to stop their attacks. Only then could he resolve this misunderstanding; otherwise, the impulsive soldiers from Feather City would likely not back down easily!
"Void Blade!" Facing this powerful strike, Wang Long remained calm and unafraid. He unleashed a similar sword energy to meet the incoming attack head-on.
Everyone's hearts raced. Although they sensed that Wang Long's strength was likely greater than what he had displayed, what good was that? They were up against multiple experts combining their power through a formation for a full-force attack, while Wang Long was hastily responding to it. The disparity in this situation was evident!
The two sword energies clashed directly!
However, in mid-air, there was no sign of the fierce energy clash everyone had anticipated. The combined strike from the top experts of Feather City was unexpectedly neutralized as it collided with Wang Long's sword energy.
How… did he do that?
This strike surprised everyone even more than the sword energy emitted by Five Dragons that could withstand an attack.
Not only Mr. Fan, but even the soldiers from Feather City showed expressions of disbelief.
Layers of sword energy were continuously dissipated. Despite being such a complex process, under Wang Long's "Void Blade," everything became void, leaving nothing to cut!
This was the first successful culmination of his understanding of Spiritual Essence combined with Primordial Energy over the past few days.
He never expected it to work so effectively today, establishing his authority with one move, causing those warriors from Feather City to momentarily forget about continuing their assault.
"Warriors above, listen up. You may have encountered attacks from those disguised as our merchant convoy before, but we truly come from Fire Mountain City. This is Mr. Fan, who is highly trusted by Fire Mountain City, and General Li Changge. Please summon the elders from Feather City to verify our identities; they will certainly be able to distinguish the truth from falsehood!"
Upon hearing this, the warriors noticed that although Wang Long had thwarted their attack, he did not rush forward but remained at a distance, quietly waiting. They thought it would be beneficial to invite a few elders over.
Mr. Fan and the others behind him let out a sigh of relief. Although they had already suffered significant losses, it was still better than having all of them perish here. No matter how strong they were, it was impossible for a mere merchant convoy to withstand the might of a large city.
Of course, many warriors still harbored resentment towards Feather City as they looked at their comrades whose bodies were barely recognizable.
"Is that Mr. Fan? General Li?" Soon, two White-Haired Elders appeared on the City Wall. At a glance, they immediately recognized their identities.
Wang Long stepped aside to allow Mr. Fan to speak, though a hint of doubt flickered in his eyes.
This Mr. Fan... is actually an old acquaintance of Feather City?
Once their identities were confirmed, everyone finally entered Feather City in an orderly manner.
The previously arrogant soldiers of Feather City turned pale as they saw the bloodied corpses being brought in with the merchant convoy; embarrassment washed over their faces.
"Uh, everyone, I acted rashly earlier. Please forgive me," said the commander who had just been arguing with them on the City Wall and had directly labeled them as enemies. He stood there with a grim expression and bowed deeply to everyone.
However, no one paid him any attention.
People have already died; what is the point of playing such a hollow game?
Just as the people of Feather City were feeling a bit humiliated and angry— even if we initiated the attack, it was against those previous enemies, so if you want to blame someone, it should be those who impersonated you— a figure suddenly approached and even extended a hand to the general.
"Your Excellency..."
"It's fine; everyone can make such mistakes. However, if there is a lapse in judgment, the losses to Feather City will be a hundredfold greater than today!" The one who took the initiative to reach out to Feather City was actually Wang Long!
Hua Rufeng and the others stared at him in surprise, completely unable to understand why he would behave this way. From his performance along the way, he did not seem like someone who craved fame and fortune. Moreover, given the current situation in Feather City, what could they offer Wang Long that Fire Mountain City could not? Otherwise, wouldn’t it have been better for them to show their worth when they were in Fire Mountain City?
Only a few could see that Wang Long was definitely a master that even Feather City could not win over, but the more they thought about it, the more puzzled they became about what he was after.
"Thank you for your understanding, my lord!" The general's face showed immense gratitude as he tightly grasped Wang Long's hand, tears welling up in his eyes.
Throughout it all, Wang Long did not explain his intentions to anyone; he simply bid farewell to the confused general and continued on his way with the others.
This time, except for Hua Rufeng and Cai Burin, everyone intentionally or unintentionally kept their distance from Wang Long.
