Swordholder

The Night City that people talk about is the city of the Dark Night Netherworld Kingdom across the way, less than a hundred miles away from the Western Frontier City.

Unexpectedly, these twelve warriors were so brave that they bypassed Night City and entered the Continent of Eternal Night to wreak havoc.

Now they've returned, radiating murderous intent.

Rumble...

The twelve war cavalrymen vanished into the city gate passage in the blink of an eye, like an iron torrent.

"Stop looking, those guys are too dangerous for you to mess with."

Zhu Xin spoke, withdrew her gaze, and led Chen Yuan and the others to the old man in charge of registration.

This old man, also known as the Guide, was a respected elder in the Heavenly Frontier Royal Palace. His name was Qin Shan, and everyone called him Elder Qin.

Zhu Xin stepped forward, began registering, and took out her appointment letter.

"The Prefect of Tianshan Commandery has been reassigned to the position of Grand Master of the Formless..."

Qin Shan looked at the document in his hand, muttered a few words, then looked up at Zhu Xin with a surprised expression.

Few would abandon their prestigious position as prefect to join the Wolf Guard and become a Grand Master of the Formless.

However, facing the background of being from a family of beast-taming experts in the prefectural city, Qin Shan remained respectful and said:

"Your Excellency, if you wish to participate in the Wolf Guard special training, you will need to set aside the title of Grand Commander of the Formless and be incorporated into the Wolf Guard organization."

The battle merits earned during this process can still be exchanged for desired elixirs and magical treasures at the Alchemy Bureau or the Forging Bureau.

Zhu Xin said, "I understand."

Qin Shan nodded, then, without even glancing at Chen Yuan and the others, directly helped them register and report for duty.

Chen Yuan didn't care. After all, it was normal for humans to be unwelcome here.

Especially these Wolf Guards, to put it nicely, are a specially trained unit; to put it bluntly, they are human subjects for the Heavenly King to cultivate for his elixirs.

They are essentially spiritual herbs; only when they are nurtured strong enough can they bear fruit.

"All Wolf Guards, follow me into the city."

Qin Shan spoke loudly as he led the way in front of the crowd.

hum!

Just then, a strong wind suddenly arose!

Behind them, in mid-air, a short-haired woman in a tight-fitting outfit rode a black eagle, flying down towards them, intending to fly low through the city gate passage.

"Get out of the way, all of you!"

The short-haired woman shouted, carrying a large bronze sword on her back, looking majestic.

The black eagle she sat on was even more unruly, with sharp eyes and a pair of iron pincers-like talons that created sonic booms as it flew.

The crowd that was walking into the city gate passage parted to make way for the newcomers, looking at them with a mixture of surprise and anger.

As she passed by these people, the short-haired woman saw the resentment in their eyes. A long whip appeared in her right hand, and she lashed out, tearing the skin of several human prodigies apart. They were sent flying, crashing heavily into the wall, coughing up blood.

The others were terrified, and the passage they cleared became even wider.

"Hmph, Wolf Guards? A bunch of trash, thinking they're something special? Get out of the way or die!"

The short-haired woman had a cold look in her eyes. The black eagle beneath her had wingspans of five or six meters, and it swept in with a fierce wind, its aura terrifying.

Although some people were furious, they dared not say a word.

Qin Shan turned around and glanced at it, but didn't say anything. He just walked to a spot slightly to the edge.

As the short-haired woman flew low overhead, dust and stones flew everywhere, and the crowd scattered. A look of disdain appeared on her face.

Suddenly, she noticed several figures still walking along the middle of the city gate passage ahead, not moving an inch, and she let out a cold laugh.

"You ignorant fools, are you deaf?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the black eagle beneath her suddenly accelerated, its pair of talons, each over a meter long, gleaming with an eerie light, as if trying to crush the heads of those people!

Those who didn't move aside were Chen Yuan and his group. Li Wei was furious when he noticed the commotion behind him.

"Don't be impulsive. It's alright to give way. She's the pride of a great family and is used to being domineering."

Zhu Xin spoke up, not wanting to cause trouble so soon after arriving, and picked up Nuomi and moved aside.

However, Chen Yuan coldly took out his black halberd and slashed it vertically behind him!

Swish!

He swung the black halberd so fast that no one could react in time!

Even the short-haired woman was completely taken aback; she never expected anyone to retaliate!

puff!

The massive body of the black eagle was instantly cleaved in two by the black halberd, and blood splattered all over the ground!

The short-haired girl lost her balance and fell to the ground with a cry. Looking at the eagle's corpse, now split in two, her eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

Then, she glared at the young man holding the black halberd at an angle, her face filled with disbelief and rage, "You dare kill my flying mount?"

Chen Yuan glanced at her sideways. "A beast that wants to hurt people, then kill it."

These words immediately caused an uproar among the already silent crowd.

"Heavens! Who is this? Who dares to kill the flying mount of the Feng family's prodigy?"

"That was a flying demon at the Great Perfection of the Yellow Court realm! How could it be killed so easily?"

Countless people were agitated, their eyes wide with excitement.

However, many of the human prodigies looked at the human youth with fervent eyes and boiling blood.

The short-haired woman and the black eagle were too arrogant; they were completely disregarding everyone else.

Now that they've been beheaded, they're overjoyed.

The short-haired woman reacted instantly, her phoenix eyes flashing with murderous intent, the intense killing aura causing the surrounding temperature to plummet!

Everyone instantly felt a chill creep through their bodies, and their scalps tingled.

"You lowly beast, I will kill you!"

The short-haired woman roared and stomped her foot on the ground, causing it to crack. She shot forward and instantly closed in, her long whip lashing out at Chen Yuan.

Crack!

The long whip she lashed out produced a thunderous sound that pierced the eardrums.

To everyone's horror, Chen Yuan caught the long whip with his bare hands, and with a sudden tug, the powerful force instantly pulled the short-haired woman towards him.

The short-haired woman was shocked, but reacted quickly, immediately drawing the bronze greatsword behind her and slashing at Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan raised his black halberd and slashed it diagonally upwards!

boom!

The bronze greatsword and the black halberd clashed, sparks flying! A deafening roar echoed through the city gate passage, causing many to pale and momentarily deaf.

"You dare lay a hand on me? Do you really think the Wolf Guard has any status?"

The short-haired woman shouted, her face filled with anger and murderous intent.

"And what are you then? You can kill me, but I can't fight back?"

Chen Yuan sneered and swung his halberd with renewed force!

boom!

With a loud bang, Chen Yuan's battle halberd struck down with tremendous force, aiming to split the opponent's skull in two once more!

The short-haired woman raised her bronze greatsword to try and block, but the terrifying force instantly spread throughout her body, causing her to bring the greatsword down heavily and strike her chest. In an instant, two lumps of flesh fell off.

"what!"

The short-haired woman screamed as the terrifying force sent her flying backward, crashing heavily into the wall of the passageway.

boom!

Golden spiritual patterns flashed across the walls of the passageway, their light surging and neutralizing the force of the impact.

The short-haired woman fell heavily to the ground, lying in a pool of blood, blood gushing from the corner of her mouth, her face deathly pale!

The city guards, who had been watching with amusement, were instantly shocked when they saw the short-haired woman lose!

"Damn it, you beast, who do you think you are? How dare you lay a hand on me?"

I not only want you dead, I want your entire family wiped out!

The short-haired woman roared hoarsely, struggling to stand up. Just as she regained her balance, her pupils suddenly narrowed.

A large black halberd rapidly expanded in the reflection of her pupils!

puff!

The black halberd pierced through her heart, dragging her body along with it as it flew up and crashed heavily into the wall!

hum!

The tail of the black halberd was still buzzing and vibrating. Its terrifying force caused many of the protective array patterns on the wall to shatter!

The short-haired girl was completely dead, her eyes wide open, her face full of resentment!

The surroundings fell into dead silence instantly!

All that could be seen were wide-open mouths and trembling pupils!

hiss!

After a few breaths, someone gasped, their throat dry as they spoke.

"Kill...killed?"

"This human cultivator before me... actually dared to... kill the prodigy of the Earthly Element Clan?"

Countless people stared in disbelief at the murderous-looking young man!

He walked up to the short-haired girl as if nothing had happened and pulled out the black battle flag.

At the same time, he touched the other person's body and took away a storage bag.

"..."

A huge wave of emotion swept through everyone's hearts!

I can't calm down for a long time!
