Outside the Gate of Heaven, there was a wilderness.
As far as the eye could see, there were still many corpses in the wilderness. When the hooves of a horse passed by, a flock of birds would usually be startled.
"The lone city that the duke is guarding isn't too far away from here." Lu Qi said.
Exiting the city gates, Lu Qi's vigilance was obviously at its peak.
There were no longer any tall city walls guarding this place. If a beast tide were to appear, they would definitely be devoured to the point where not even dregs would remain.
On the way, Lu Yu also saw some villages that were destroyed.
These villages had been completely destroyed, countless houses were burned by the flames, and the ground was littered with corpses.
"These are all places that have been swept away by the beast tide. Originally, there were still a lot of people living here, but now, they have either been devoured by the beasts or have been displaced, becoming homeless." Lu Qi sighed.
The crowd continued to walk forwards, and in the distance, they could vaguely make out the outline of a city.
It was a lonely city with extremely high walls. The entire city was supported by a tall mountain, and its surroundings were filled with an endless wasteland.
"Crap."
Lu Qi suddenly cried out in alarm.
Not only him, even the others had seen the scene below the city.
He saw that in front of the lone city, a sea of demon beasts was gathering and attacking the city with all their might.
The black mass caused one to feel a sense of oppression in their heart.
Lu Qi was also someone who had experienced many battles, but upon seeing this scene, his entire body couldn't help but tremble.
"Has he really gone all out? Back then, even at the Heaven Gate trial, we did not encounter that many demonic beasts!" Lu Qi muttered.
The group stopped their horses and looked at the scene in front of them.
Above the lone city, countless flags were raised and soldiers were fighting with all they had.
Although those demon beasts didn't have any siege equipment, each and every one of them had a huge body and extraordinary strength.
Their eyes were bloodthirsty, causing those who saw them to shudder.
A group of demon beasts gathered together and then piled up to a certain height. They then rushed up the city walls, randomly biting around.
Often, when a demon beast charged onto the city walls, it would cause an uproar.
Even if they were chased back, these demon beasts would take a few lives.
Seeing such a scene, Lu Qi's expression changed: "Young Master, we shouldn't go over. There are simply too many of these demon beasts."
As for the guards, they were even more so.
Since they were able to be the guards of the Yongping manor, they were naturally veterans who had experienced many battles.
However, the battlefields they faced before were all filled with people fighting. When had they ever seen so many piles of demonic beasts appearing?
"Young master, let's go. This place is too dangerous." The guards also began to persuade Lu Yu.
After all, no matter how strong Lu Yu was, he was still a person.
How could one person defend against the horde of demonic beasts?
On the other side of the beast tide, a few carriages slowly stopped.
A few old men walked out of the carriage. Although they were old, their steps were steady and they emitted a powerful aura.
"Honored reverends, the person that brat brought is over there." A high-ranking officer pointed at Lu Yu and the rest as he spoke to the old man beside him.
He did not have a low status within the army, but in front of these elders, he appeared to be extremely lowly.
It was only because these elders in front of him were the Imperial Palace's ministers!
These palace ministers did not know what had happened in Long Jing.
In just a few days, the entire Guardian Hall in Long Jing collapsed. Even the Imperial Palace was sealed off by the Imperial Guards. Even if someone had sent a message, it wouldn't have happened so quickly.
Besides, even if they knew, they probably wouldn't believe it.
"That's the kid?"
One of the reverends glanced at Lu Yu's back, his eyes filled with disdain, "Lone City is besieged by ten thousand beasts, it won't last long. They don't even have enough people to protect themselves, what are they going to use to save Marquis Yongping?"
