Chapter 1193 - 1193: Found Lin Wudi!

"Third Tribulation? Has the Nanyuan King come personally?"

The new City Lord stood up abruptly, his face full of joy.

His role as City Lord had been uneventful, but if the Nanyuan King were to arrive, he wouldn't have to worry so much.

"No... it's not!"

The guard shook his head hastily, speaking with a bitter voice, "They are outsiders! And there are six Third Tribulation powerhouses!"

"What... what did you say?"

The new City Lord's eyes widened in disbelief, his eye corners almost tearing apart.

In the entire Stone Gate Realm, there were only ten Third Tribulation practitioners, who were the high and mighty Ten Kings.

Now, with six Third Tribulation beings appearing at once, Stone Gate Realm was about to be turned upside down!

However, these Third Tribulation powerhouses had just entered the Forbidden Sand Sea; their Tribulation Thunder Thought couldn't rival the Ten Kings and should not be their match.

"Please... no, I'll go out to greet them personally!"

The new City Lord ascended into the air and rushed outside the City Lord's Mansion.

"Hiss..."

Seeing the situation outside the City Lord's Mansion, the new City Lord gasped, wishing to slap the guard to death.

There were indeed six Third Tribulation beings, but surrounding them were nearly a hundred Second Tribulation powerhouses.

Keep in mind, in the entire Stone Gate Realm, there were only a thousand Second Tribulation practitioners. Yet these outsiders brought nearly a hundred.

This force, even if it couldn't overthrow the Ten Kings, could stake a claim and stand against them.

"Greetings, my lords; may I know your reason for coming?"

The new City Lord cupped his hands in salute, his attitude somewhat humble.

Inwardly, he felt extremely aggrieved.

He thought it was already bad enough with the Ghost Specters gone, and Lin Wudi might return at any moment.

Little did he know, so many strange beings would descend all at once.

Weren't those Integrate Dao experts saying that no one had dared to transcend tribulation into the Forbidden Sand Sea for ten thousand years?

Who exactly were these formidable outsiders?

"Don't panic, we are from the Heavenly Realm Guard... I am Director Liuyun of the Heavenly Realm Guard..."

The leading woman among the six Third Tribulation practitioners said.

Upon hearing they were from the Heavenly Realm Guard, the new City Lord's expression became even more peculiar.

Those from the Heavenly Realm Guard, at the very least, all had Proud Son of Heaven aptitude, with all the resources and talents they could want. Yet they entered the Forbidden Sand Sea?

Moreover, these people before him were only those who survived and passed through the first Stone Gate into the Heavenly Gate Realm. Many must have perished among the Ghost Specters along the way.

Have the Heavenly Realm Guards gone mad?

To bury so many geniuses in the Forbidden Sand Sea.

"Director, your command."

The new City Lord's attitude grew increasingly humble.

Liuyun said calmly, "We have come to apprehend a wanted criminal of the Heavenly Realm. We hope for your cooperation..."

The new City Lord bowed his head, resisting the urge to retort.

Come to the Forbidden Sand Sea to catch a Heavenly Realm criminal?

Only ghosts would believe that.

If the Heavenly Realm Guard were so diligent, there wouldn't be so many Demon Race members causing havoc.

"Please, give your orders, Sir..."

Though he didn't believe it, he dared not go against the Heavenly Realm Guard.

Liuyun nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very well then..."

Saying that, her Tribulation Thunder Thought moved, and a portrait made from her Thunder Thought appeared.

"The one the Heavenly Realm Guard seeks to apprehend is this person, for heinous crimes beyond redemption, called..."

"Lin Wudi!"

Before Liuyun could finish, the new City Lord exclaimed incredulously.

He couldn't believe that the Heavenly Realm Guard would expend so much effort and sacrifice just to find the calamity that was Lin Wudi.

"Oh? You know this person? Where is he?"

Liuyun lost her composure a bit, grabbing the City Lord by the throat.

With his mere Second Tribulation cultivation, the City Lord was almost choked to death by her grip.

"Sir... Sir..."

The new City Lord hurriedly pleaded.

"Sorry, I lost my composure..."

Liuyun released him and asked, "Tell me, how do you know this person, and is he really in this world?"

As she spoke, there was an unmistakable tremor in her voice, barely concealing her excitement.

Unfortunately, the new City Lord was too consumed by fear and awe to notice Liuyun's evident emotional change.

"That person killed the City Lord here half a month ago and destroyed three Ghost Specters..."

The new City Lord dare not conceal anything and hurriedly revealed all the intelligence he knew.

Liuyun and the five Third Tribulation practitioners beside her showed varied expressions.

Excitement!

Exhilaration!

Shock!

And a slight hint of dread.

"Good! You've done well. Do you know where Lin Wudi is now?"

Liuyun asked, suppressing the excitement in her heart.

The new City Lord chuckled awkwardly, "Sir, you overestimate me. I'm just newly appointed as the City Lord and not qualified to participate in the encirclement and suppression of Lin Wudi."

Lin Wudi could easily kill Second Tribulation practitioners.

The only ones now qualified to encircle Lin Wudi are the King's Guard under the Nanyuan King.

Aside from them, anyone else facing Lin Wudi is just courting death.

"Very well..."

Liuyun nodded thoughtfully.

The new City Lord sighed in relief, hoping to appease these harbingers of disaster.

He couldn't afford to offend these fearsome individuals.

They were all comparable to the Ten Kings as Third Tribulation practitioners.

Not to mention, they were the Heavenly Realm Guard!

"Sir, if you don't mind, you could stay at the City Lord's Mansion for a few days while I gather information on Lin Wudi..."

The new City Lord offered, eager to please.

He sensed something peculiar about these Heavenly Realm Guards entering the Forbidden Sand Sea.

The Heavenly Realm Guard wouldn't waste such talent among the Ghost Specters.

They likely had a way to safely leave the Forbidden Sand Sea.

He wanted to get closer to them, hoping they might take him with them when they left.

He was fed up with this ghostly place of the Forbidden Sand Sea.

Moreover, with three thousand Thunder Thought fragments, he could be recognized as a Banished Immortal Level genius outside.

In any Holy Lands or even within the Heavenly Realm Guard, he would be valued.

"Stay for a few days?"

Liuyun's eyes suddenly flickered with an inexplicable gleam.

In the next moment, a hundred Third Tribulation Thoughts shot forth, transforming into the Hand of Tribulation Thought, striking the new City Lord.

"Why..."

The new City Lord could not believe his eyes, utterly horrified.

Bang!

Without receiving any answers, he was slapped to death with one blow.

"Who would have thought we were so lucky, finding Lin Wudi right within the first Stone Gate!"

After killing him, Liuyun's face couldn't hide the joy.

Another person nearby said, "It's a pity the Forbidden Sand Sea's location is unique, and the organization's locator magical treasures can't pinpoint the Nine Cauldrons fragment, or we'd quickly find Lin Wudi."

A rotund man laughed heartily and said, "Based on this useless City Lord's claims, Lin Wudi's power is roughly equivalent to a Third Tribulation; we definitely have an opportunity to kill him!"

"Hahaha! Kill Lin Wudi, seize the Nine Cauldrons fragment!"

"Our chance to soar to the skies has arrived!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of auras erupted.

It was not just six Third Tribulation practitioners. Among these few hundred people, at least a hundred were of the Third Tribulation.

Earlier, they were merely concealing their strength.

These people were not Heavenly Realm Guards but members of the Heaven's Mandate Organization.

They pursued all the way, splitting into thirteen squads, entering the Thirteen Stone Gates.

Liuyun, the leader, was a Banished Immortal Genius, the strongest among them.

"Go! Find Lin Wudi, seize the Nine Cauldrons fragment!"

Liuyun rode the Thunderbolt away.

...

Flowing Sand City.

"Stop, you little brat, daring to steal from my store!"

In the street, a brilliant Dao Art cleaved forward like a sharp blade.

A child, appearing only eleven or twelve years old, seemed about to be killed.
