Chapter 353: Chapter 353: The Treacherous Human Heart and Abandoning the City to Flee

Tenth District.

The district closest to the Ninth District, where the stationed Destruction-level Transcendent was not the one appointed by Su Qi and his group during the meeting.

They came from the Nine Abyss Holy City, directly stationed here, without any contact with other Destruction-level Transcendents, displaying a rather arrogant demeanor.

The reason for this, in reality, was well understood by everyone.

Because Pei Jing was born in Nine Abyss Holy City and was a direct descendant of the Nine Abyss Saint Master, when Pei Jing had a falling out with the family, the support team sent there had no interaction with Pei Jing.

It was either to avoid suspicion, not wanting to be too close to someone as controversial as Pei Jing, or they had been secretly instructed by some big figures in the Nine Abyss Holy City, waiting to suppress him.

In either case, the Destruction-level Transcendents in other districts could only turn a blind eye.

After all, when it came to matters involving colossal entities like the Holy Sanctuary Family, it was best to keep a respectful distance, otherwise one might invite a catastrophic disaster upon themselves.

In fact.

The branches of the powerful families and corporate families that had moved into the Ninth District after its rebuilding had more or less some relations with their respective Holy Sanctuary Families in the Holy City.

Otherwise, how could the general corporate families dare to get involved in this?

It was well known that families that could be called Holy Sanctuary Families all had a strict standard; that was, having a Supreme Saint Master of the current era, who practically controlled a Holy City.

Therefore, this was not a common conflict between corporate families, but in essence, a clash between Holy Cities.

If not for the coinciding disaster spreading and everyone’s attention being drawn to it, perhaps people would be more concerned about which Holy City Pei Jing would choose to escape the strange calamity.

To some big figures, the painstakingly nurtured direct descendants of their own, having a falling out with the family was bearable — after all, doesn’t every family have a few rebellious children?

The concern was this rebellious child had ascended to Destruction-level, constantly at risk of a strange calamity breaking out, requiring to choose a Holy City as a refuge, to use the aura of a Supreme Saint Master to suppress their strange calamity.

If Pei Jing was willing to humbly apologize to the family, the Pei Family might still ’magnanimously’ accept him again.

However.

For a long period after Pei Jing ascended, he did not show any signs of bowing down to the Nine Abyss Holy City.

This touched the sensitive nerves of some big figures.

In their perception, there was no way such a disgrace to the family as Pei Jing could turn to another Holy City; otherwise, where would that leave Nine Abyss Holy City, where would that leave the Pei Family!

Currently, with Lu Zhan leading the Destruction-level Transcendents stationed in the Tenth District, seeing the eerie creatures running rampant and fires raging throughout the district, they couldn’t help but feel like retreating.

Unlike the other supporting Destruction-level Transcendents, they didn’t need to desperately fight to seek the elusive opportunity for promotion.

They still had options; accomplishing the task of preventing Pei Jing from aligning with another Holy City would equally gain the favor of the Nine Abyss Holy City, and the chance for the Pei Family to use their heritage to assist.

Moreover.

This path was a thousand times easier than resisting the overwhelming pervasive mutations!

On one side was the pervasive mutation invasion, on the other side was a newly ascended Destruction-level newcomer; such a choice could even be made by children.

"Lu Zhan, we shouldn’t drag this on here any further. There’s no point; these endless eerie creatures won’t be significantly affected by our power alone."

"This time there was a severe misjudgment by the upper echelons of the Holy City, perhaps only a Catastrophe-level being can stabilize the situation."

Watching large numbers of eerie creatures pouring into the district, the situation becoming perilous, Tong Qi, with a fair face, was tense.

She felt if they continued fighting desperately like this, they might be worn out here without even seeing the so-called opportunity.

They were no longer in the peak of their youth; even though residing long in the Holy City under the aura of a Supreme Saint Master, they knew well that the longer their inner strange calamity was suppressed, the more turbulent it would erupt.

There was a high chance that this eruption might claim their old lives.

Now, with a better option, they naturally didn’t want to fight desperately.

At this moment, Lu Zhan, with a swordlight in his hand, glanced fiercely at the area engulfed by massive and terrifying shadows, hearing the heart-wrenching screams, and was silent for a while.

He wasn’t sympathizing with the citizens of the Tenth District; he was hesitating because.

After all, killing a Saint Master’s direct blood was no small matter.

Although Pei Jing was detested in the Pei Family, there would always be some close to him, and the ensuing trouble would not be small.

However.

Sensing the vibration transmitted through his Mysterious Path, Lu Zhan resolutely made up his mind, gritting his teeth, he coldly said: "Alright, let’s go."

With those words, all the Destruction-level experts present immediately understood what they implied, cruel smiles appearing across their faces.

"This level of mutation invasion, even we can barely resist, Pei Jing’s side should be even more hopeless!"

"Exactly, now all city communications are down, everyone is hardly managing themselves, this conveniently provides us excellent cover for assassinating Pei Jing, additionally, to prevent information leak, we could even eliminate the Ninth District entirely!"

"Heh heh, who knows, Pei Jing might have already died at the hands of the eerie creatures. Our act might just be collecting his corpse, even the most brazen in the Pei Family couldn’t fault us."

A group of Destruction-level Transcendents remained poised in the skies above the ravaged district, sinister smiles on their faces, appearing terrifyingly eerie against the backdrop of the massive eerie creatures.

Having made the decision, they wasted no more time, soaring through the air, abandoning this land groaning in pain.

This scene, when seen by a concerned individual, inevitably caused immediate panic. Waiting anxiously for about ten minutes, he seemed to have his soul taken,

then apparently realizing something, he dizzily made his way around the immense eerie creatures, desperately reaching the City Lord of the Tenth District.

Falling to his knees with a heavy thud, with a hoarse and despairing voice, he cried bitterly: "City Lord... the Destruction-level strength abandoned the city!"

As these words fell, it was like thunder from the nine heavens, causing many of the nearby fighting Extraordinary beings to freeze, and some, caught off guard, were killed by an eerie creature’s attack.

One burly Extraordinary being strode forward, his face obscured by blood-soaked hair, rendering expressions unreadable.

Resolutely stepping to the informer, he grabbed him by the collar and hoisted him up, seething with baleful aura, he roared: "Do you know what the penalty is for shaking the morale of the troops, huh?!"
