Chapter 347: The Phantom Arrives
The newly promoted martial artist, Catch-a-Wing Tiger Zhou You, fled with his family.

After witnessing this, warriors guarding other sections of the city wall quickly spread the news to all parties.

It was less than a quarter of an hour before Zhou You and his group left the city. Those with good eyesight could see a thin convoy moving slowly forward in the distance.

But why?
Zhou You has just broken through to become a martial artist and has a bright future ahead of him. Why is he so depressed?

Being in charge of the order to go to war is both a power and a constraint, and one must fulfill the responsibilities of defending the city as arranged by the aristocratic family.

As the saying goes, if the order is there, the city is there; if the city is lost, the people will die. The holder of the war order abandoned the city and fled, which was a sensational news.

Before dawn, this news will spread quickly throughout Gongliang City.

I don’t know if the third son of the Qi family would be furious if he knew about this and would condemn Zhou You for being a coward?

However, many martial arts gym owners sensed something different.

"Master, it doesn't matter if Zhou You is a martial artist. He doesn't have the heart of a strong man. He actually ran away after a great victory. It's just a big joke."

Wang Xiaofeng smiled and shook his head, his expression full of disdain.

His master, Wang Panshi, the owner of Panshi Martial Arts School, looked solemn and asked, "Where is Wang Lao Hu?"

"I already know the news, but I haven't reacted."

Hearing that Wang Jianxiong was still in the city, Wang Panshi breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, his ears moved and he looked up at the sky.

Wang Xiaofeng and other martial arts school disciples followed his movements and all looked towards the dark night.

However, it was dark at night and nothing could be seen.

Master Wang Panshi had extraordinary eyesight. He suddenly noticed something and his expression gradually turned into one of horror.

His limbs were shaking, and his tone was full of despair and unwillingness, "Why is this happening?"

Hundreds of tons of air were compressed by a mysterious force in the sky and instantly transformed into a entity more terrifying than a mountain. It crashed down on the city wall and enveloped all living things around it in the blink of an eye.

Disaster has come!
"Master, why did Zhou You escape?"

Lu Qiang's eyes were full of shock. He couldn't understand why Zhou You, who was known for his shrewdness and forbearance, had now broken through to become a martial artist. This was his highlight moment to show his prowess.

Many people estimated that after the rebels retreated, with the support of the aristocratic families, Zhou You would be qualified to open a martial arts school and become the owner, becoming an influential figure in the martial arts world, standing shoulder to shoulder with his mentor Wang Lao Hu.

But suddenly there came news that he had abandoned the city and fled...
Wang Jianxiong did not answer. He let out a breath and said, "Lu Qiang, Master is sorry for you."

"All living things have a premonition of the coming natural disaster, but now humans are no match for animals."

"Zhou You, hey, Zhou You, even if he broke through to become a martial artist, I didn't feel anything. But in this prosperous and hypocritical scene, he thought calmly, saw the crisis, and decisively gave up his family business to survive."

"With such courage and determination, if he survives this time, he will surely achieve great success in the future."

His old face showed some weakness, "Lu Qiang, don't blame me for being cruel and not giving you a way out."

"Master, do you know why?"

Wang Jianxiong grinned, "Don't think that anyone will punish Zhou You for 'escaping', because the two great families, the Xu family and the Qi family, have already left the city first, and now Gongliang City is just an empty shell."

There was a thunderclap, and suddenly an apprentice from the martial arts school shouted hurriedly.

"Master, Senior Brother, Senior Brother Shi Gaofei snatched my mother away and ran out of the city. We couldn't stop him."

Wang Jianxiong waved his hand and said, "Let him be!"

Then he realized something, looked up at the sky, and his expression became more determined.

He murmured to himself, and although his voice was faint, Lu Qiang, who was nearby, could hear it...

"It's finally here!" The dark night sky was like turning on a mysterious switch, and countless spots of light flashed in an instant, like blooming flowers, like beams of light, and like thousands of silk threads entangled into a ball.

In the eyes of martial artists, this is a very dangerous sign.

This is because the air moves rapidly and is compressed and rubbed, causing its temperature to rise rapidly, igniting the air and producing sparks.

The force that can cause such a strange phenomenon must be an astonishing force at the powerful martial arts level.

Many civilians in the city were unaware of the impending danger. They looked at the brilliant fireworks in the night sky and exclaimed, "How beautiful!"

"Damn it, Wang Lao Hu is not a human being. We have all been deceived by him."

Mao Laoliu took Mao Lang's hand and pushed away the disciple who wanted to ask something, "Go away and make a living!"

The section of the city wall he was in charge of was in chaos, and his apprentices had no idea why the master had gone mad.

It is said that Mao Lang's nickname is the Crazy Beast, and he acts extreme and crazy. Once he gets angry, he will not recognize his relatives. Now it seems that the owner's master's madness is just not in the process of erupting. Once he erupts, he is even more serious than Mao Lang.

"Master, Master's Wife and the others are still in the city!"

Mao Lang reminded Mao Laoliu that he was taken care of by his master's family, and they were like father and son, and he had an extraordinary relationship with Mao Laoliu's family.

When the master said he was leaving, he followed without saying a word, unconditionally.

However, Mao Laoliu actually ignored his family. What made him so panicked?

"It's too late. I will make amends to them after I die."

Mao Laoliu's eyes were filled with pain. "The huge city of Gongliang is about to be destroyed. The two great families have fled, leaving us here to die in this isolated city. We are just an empty shell and a facade."

"Wang Lao Hu knew about this long ago. He knew that he was going to die, but he deliberately brought his disciples to stay here, just to confuse our martial arts schools and cover the evacuation of the two great families."

"By the way, he has connections everywhere, and he must have made a deal with the two great families and gained some benefits."

"I understand. Lu Jianqing's future in Dayin Mountain was earned by him at the cost of the lives of his martial arts school. Wang Lao Hu, you really are so cruel. I, Mao Lao Liu, am convinced."

Mao Laoliu became more and more angry as he spoke, "You deserve it! No wonder Zhou You abandoned you and turned against you. You really don't treat others as human beings."

A master and his disciple rushed out of the city gate, with the bustling city behind them and the vast night in front of them.

Although I got out, I didn't know where to go and was a little confused for a while.

Suddenly, Mao Laoliu's pupils contracted sharply and the loud noise from the sky made his ears bleed.

That's too late.

The torrent is like a waterfall covered by the sky, surging down at the most unexpected moment, presenting a posture of rushing thousands of miles.

The entire Gongliang city, including the radiation range of dozens or even hundreds of miles outside the city wall, was shrouded in the sudden attack, as if it was in a huge cage.

In the darkness of night, the uninvited guest stretched out his huge figure, as quiet and vast as a ghost in the water.

"Phantom, this is the Phantom."

As soon as Mao Laoliu revealed the nature of the uninvited guest, he was blown away by the aftermath of the torrent, and Mao Lang was blown away in the opposite direction.

They still couldn't escape from Gongliang City!
Under the night...

The team was going as fast as possible, but the speed was still not satisfactory.

Zhou You fell behind the convoy and looked back at Gongliang City. Suddenly, a strong sense of ominousness surged in his heart.

What appeared before him was an absurd scene that he had never seen in his life.
