Chapter 248: With His Own Strength

Fireballs rained down.

Ye Qiluo, who was already in despair, suddenly saw the tall figure standing in front of her. This back was so familiar. The last time they were in such danger, it was this person who stepped forward and saved all of them.

For some reason, Ye Qiluo felt inexplicably at ease just by seeing him appear in front of her. Even if they were facing the enemy’s army and were about to be baptized by such majestic firepower, Ye Qiluo slowly closed her eyes.

Li Yuanqing suddenly opened his arms and faced the artillery fire that filled the sky.

The humans behind him exclaimed. They looked at the City Lord in midair and the young man who had inexplicably appeared, as if they were about to be drowned by the endless fireballs.

“City Lord!”

The generals who were lucky enough to survive all looked at the sky above the city with blemishes.

However, at this moment, the sea of fire formed by the endless fireballs suddenly stopped. It was as if time had stopped at this moment forever. The burning flames on these fireballs also stopped.

Such a scene stunned everyone in the city. They had never seen a wall of fire hanging in the sky. This wall of fire was filled with fireballs burning with flames. How shocking was this scene? They could not understand what kind of immortal scene was in the sky. The violent destructive weapons that were about to land on their heads were hanging in the sky like docile lambs.

“This must be a miracle!”

“It must be an immortal!”

The people of Rong City knelt in the street and filled the street. They looked at the sky piously as the fire burned brightly. They had never seen such a scene in their lives. There was actually such a stunning scene in this world. It was really unforgettable.

At this moment, the flames that filled the sky suddenly trembled violently again.

Just as everyone thought that the fireballs were about to advance again and smash towards Rong City, the fireballs in the sky actually flew towards where it came from at an extremely fast speed. In fact, the speed at which they returned was several times faster than when they came.

The humans on the other side had originally planned to wait for the signal of victory, but there was no result after a long time. When they hesitated for a moment and looked at the sky, they saw endless flames pouncing at their faces again.

They had seen this scene clearly just now. They had smashed the fireballs over there. But why were the fireballs smashing towards their faces again in just a short while?

This scene was difficult for them to understand, but the fear in their hearts arose.

“Run!” Someone suddenly shouted and it woke everyone up.

Only now did these dreaming humans remember that this was a huge threat in front of them. They naturally knew the power of these fireballs. If they were hit by these fireballs, they would be reduced to ashes.

In this situation, the only way was to escape. In an instant, the entire valley was in chaos.

These humans, who had originally set up a formation and were ready to attack, were useless now. They hurriedly threw down their helmets and armor and fled outside. However, the fireballs were extremely fast and arrived above their heads in an instant. It did not give them any time to react and shattered the valley below.

They had originally specially chosen such a valley as a turret base to set up their formation. However, at this moment, it had become their own cage, trapping them firmly inside. The hill was filled with people who wanted to rush out.

In an instant, flames soared into the sky. Flames filled the sky and roared into the sky from the valley, as if they were venting the pain they were enduring. It was so intense.

These humans were all tall and strong. Most of them were more than three meters tall. Moreover, their footsteps were like the wind, and their movements were much faster than ordinary humans.

If their powerful bodies were in a battle, it would definitely give them a huge advantage. However, in the face of such huge power, their physical advantage was useless.

The fire kept burning in the valley and venting. The whistling wind was like a cheering team that encouraged the fire. A gust of wind blew past the flames and they soared hundreds of feet high.

A normal-sized human outside the valley looked at the burning valley with a red face.

They had carefully prepared for so long, but they never expected that it would be resolved by someone so professionally. Was this something that a human could do?

Before this, the news they received was not like this. They had already made sufficient preparations, but they never expected their human race to be so powerful. There was actually such an incomparably powerful person among them.

“I was tricked by these demons again!” He gritted his teeth and looked fiercely at the burning valley. There were still charred corpses climbing out numbly.

Beside him was a fellow whose physique was not particularly outstanding, but he was much taller than ordinary humans. His body flickered with colorful colors. His skin seemed to have been infected by some poison. Every piece of his skin flickered with a different color. It was dazzling, but it also seemed to contain a poisonous warning. If one approached, they would be bitten fiercely.

The two people standing here one after another were the main planners of this operation. The man standing in front was the leader of the rebel army, his name was Mie Tian. The man behind him was called Ma Heng, his deputy general.

A large number of their troops gathered in front. They were already planning to charge, but they didn’t expect to encounter such a change when they had already reached the city wall of the human race.

The heavy artillery position at the back was smashed into pieces. All the artifacts inside were destroyed. He had been preparing these things for countless years. He did not expect them to be destroyed in just a short moment.

The demons in front who had already rushed to the city received the news from the back and hurriedly retreated.

The guards stationed outside the city were covered in wounds and were ready to fight the rebels to the death. However, they did not expect these guys to run back halfway. They heaved a sigh of relief.

The human generals came out to command the remaining soldiers.

“Everyone, don’t let your guard down. Set up camp and recuperate. If an enemy attacks, immediately defend!”

After receiving the orders of their superior, they immediately sat down on the spot. All of them took out a pill from their pockets and stuffed it into their mouths. Their bodies were severely injured from this attack.

However, while they were recovering, they would look up at the sky from time to time. There were two figures standing on the remaining city wall.

Li Yuanqing slowly turned around and looked at Ye Qiluo behind him.

“Young Master Li, we’re really in trouble this time. If not for you, I wouldn’t know what to do.” Ye Qiluo bowed slightly to thank Li Yuanqing.

If not for Li Yuanqing’s sudden appearance just now, the fireballs that filled the sky would have immediately drowned Ye Qiluo.

With Ye Qiluo’s strength, even if she could withstand it, she would probably be severely injured. She could not resist the subsequent fireballs and most of the defense of Rong City would be destroyed.

As long as those fireballs were released into the defense system of Rong City, it would be difficult to repair it, let alone rebuild it.

Ye Qiluo was sincerely grateful to Li Yuanqing. The fireballs that filled the sky looked endless, making people feel fear for no reason.

However, in the face of such immense pressure, Li Yuanqing was still able to repel such a huge attack and return it. This was simply too ridiculous. How could he be so strong?

Ye Qiluo was deeply grateful. If she had not formed a relationship with Li Yuanqing and chose to snatch Ping City according to their original plan, it would probably be a different situation today.

Originally, in Ye Qiluo’s plan, Ping City was their main destination. At that time, they had already sent a large number of people to infiltrate Ping City. They did not expect Hu Jiujiu to be a step ahead and snatch the position of City Lord.

Later on, Ye Qiluo wanted to make a move, but after some experience, they realized that Hu Jiujiu took good care of the human race. Moreover, the power behind Hu Jiujiu was too mysterious and they could not figure it out for the time being.

It was also because of this that they gradually gave up on their plan to take down Ping City. Instead, they established themselves in Ping City and strengthened themselves.

Moreover, with Ping City as the foundation, she expanded their strength to Rong City and successfully took it in. It was as if she could see Li Yuanqing’s shadow in everything. She did not know if the two of them were really fated.

Ye Qiluo recalled the time when she met Li Yuanqing in the dilapidated cave. She had never thought that this inconspicuous young man would have such a deep bond with her in the future. But today, in less than half a year, everything has changed. This man was already standing in front of him like a peerless hero.

Ye Qiluo shook her head slightly and threw away her unrealistic thoughts. Li Yuanqing had long intended to reject her. He would probably not change his mind at this time. The two of them could only be considered fated.

Li Yuanqing frowned slightly. He was still thinking about the mutants he had just seen.

The people who had escaped from the periphery just now were indeed humans from their appearance, but the power circulating in their entire bodies was more inclined to the demons. This strange situation was very strange.

Logically speaking, these should be the rebel army of the human race. They should be pure humans. However, why did these people have such a thick demonic aura? Where did this demonic aura come from?

Li Yuanqing kept feeling a little worried. However, with his current strength, even if there was something fishy, it was not enough to cause him much trouble.

“City Lord Ye, you should be more careful. It’s still not peaceful outside. Although it’s temporarily peaceful, you still have to be more careful. You can’t injure yourself. If you injure yourself, the entire Rong City will be in chaos.”

Ye Qiluo nodded slightly. Li Yuanqing’s first reaction was to ensure her safety. This made Ye Qiluo feel a little happy.

“Young Master Li, don’t worry. My body is very strong. If the heavens had the intention to take my body away, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be here anymore.”

Ye Qiluo was quite open-minded. While the two of them were talking, the generals and the various elders of the human race had already rushed over.

The huge conflict that erupted here just now had attracted all the humans in Rong City. They looked at Ye Qiluo in the sky and Li Yuanqing, who was standing in front of her, and hurriedly rushed over to protect Ye Qiluo.

“City Lord, we’re late. Please forgive us!”

They stood in a row in front of Hu Jiujiu and looked at the strange young man in front of them warily. This guy looked like a human, but they had never seen him before. They did not know where he came from.

Seeing them facing Li Yuanqing with hostility, Ye Qiluo hurriedly explained, “Elders, don’t misunderstand. This young master is our great benefactor. If Young Master Li hadn’t chased all the fireballs back just now, we would have fallen into purgatory.”

“Oh?”

“City Lord, are you saying that the person who chased away all the fireballs just now was this young master in front of us?”

They had also noticed the scene that had just happened. Everyone looked at Li Yuanqing in surprise. They never expected that it was this young master in front of them who looked inconspicuous.

“So it’s you who saved the citizens of Rong City. We thank you for your kindness!”

For a moment, a group of people knelt in a row in front of Li Yuanqing. All of them looked so sincere that Li Yuanqing was flattered.

“Seniors, please stand up. It was nothing.”
