Chapter 1181 – The Sand Beast’s First Visit

Rock Light is cautious and acts with extreme discretion, and has also experienced two complete sand beast tides.

If not extremely sure, he will not say, five days within the sand beast tide will break out such words.

Xu Chuniang pondered for a moment, and instructed, “I have already purchased a mansion in the city for several of you, you guys pack up, and enter the city today, the cost of entering the city you and others will first pay for it on your own, and after the sand beast tide has receded, I’ll then make up for the magic crystals that were spent to you.”

Hearing this, Rock Light couldn’t help but be a little moved.

Sand city is not easy to build, the land price in the city is expensive, but senior for them a few, spend a lot of money to buy a mansion.

Even the entry fee was willing to pay for them.

“Yes, I understand, I have already spoken to a few of them about this matter, and their things have already been packed, so I will go to the city gates in a moment to process their entry into the city.”

“Alright, keep me informed if anything happens.”

Xu Chuniang put down the summoning order and looked away towards the distance.

Sand City was built on top of a tall sand dune, its location was much higher than the surrounding area, and standing in the courtyard, one was able to easily see the scene in the distance.

Outside the city, it seemed to be calm, but the long queue at the city gates vaguely revealed a few moments of tension, quite a bit of the feeling of a rainy day.

She withdrew her gaze and returned to her room, quietly waiting for the moment when the Sand Beast Tide arrived.

In the next few days, the atmosphere in the city became more and more tense, the price of pills rose again and again, and the price of all kinds of magic soldiers also followed the rise.

Inside and outside of Sand City, everywhere one could see cultivators with tense and hurried expressions.

This tense atmosphere did not last long, and in the early hours of the fourth day, the sand beast tide finally arrived.

Countless sand beasts, like a tidal wave, surged towards Sand City from all directions.

Their eyes were ice-cold and their expressions were maniacal, looking very different from usual.

“It’s the sand beasts, they’re coming!”

There were cultivators keeping an eye on the movements outside the city at all times, which was why the wave of sand beasts was detected by the crowd as soon as it appeared.

At this critical juncture, the Demon King level powerhouse sitting in Sand City finally showed up.

Normally, these Demon King powerhouses were very mysterious and would not show their faces easily, but at this moment when this Sand Beast Tide was coming, all the Demon Kings in the city stood out.

Xu Chuniang noticed that the old man who had agreed to refine the Scorpion Scissors for her earlier at the Alchemy Workshop was clearly one of these Demon Kings as well.

As she gazed at him, the old man seemed to have noticed and looked back, his gaze locking onto her from afar.

Seeing that it was Xu Chuniang, the old man slowly collected the coldness under his eyes and withdrew his gaze after a slight nod.

The appearance of the Demon Kings was like a centering pill, gradually calming the restless cultivators in the city.

Some people looked at them with hopefulness and prayed, “Lord Demon Lords, you must help us!”

“Yes, with so many sand beasts, how can we be their match, please Lords, please take action and expel the sand beasts!”

“Please Lord Demon King make a move and save our lives ……”

“Silence.”

A stout, golden-armored Demon King at the head frowned unpleasantly, his cold eyes sweeping over the several people who spoke.

“We and the Sand Beast King have long had an agreement that neither of us would interfere in such battles, don’t you guys understand the rules?”

The few people who asked were confused, they had just come to Sand City not many years ago and had never experienced a Sand Beast Tide, so they really didn’t know these rules.

If Lord Demon King didn’t intervene, how could they stop so many raging sand beasts with just them?
The golden-armored Demon King didn’t open his mouth again, and a female Demon King standing beside him with a white veil on her face explained in a faint voice. “The Sand Beasts’ riot won’t last long, at most it won’t last more than seven days, after they regain their sanity, they will retreat, you guys only need to last through these seven days.

During this period, although we will not intervene in the battle between you and the Sand Beasts, we will be on hand to command and teach you how to deal with the enemy.”

Upon hearing this, the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the crowd was much less.

With Lord Demon King’s command, and the rock solid Sand City to rely on, it shouldn …… t be difficult to hold out for seven days in the sand beast tide, right?

Seeing that the crowd had no objections, the female Demon King with a white veil over her face nodded in satisfaction, and her onion-like fingers stretched out, casually pointing at more than a hundred people.

“You, you, and a few of you …… follow me out of the city to meet the enemy!”

The people who were pointed to were horrified, “Lord Demon King, it won’t be long before the Sand Beast Tide will be rushing over, if we go out of the city at this time, won’t we be targets to be killed?”

“Yes, it’s too dangerous to leave the city now, we managed to enter the city with great difficulty, how can we go out? It’s much more likely to survive if we die in the city.”

Although the cultivators who were named, totaled more than a hundred people, the sand beasts outside the city were thousands of them.

This number of them, how could they be enough to watch.

The Female Demon King calmly looked at the first person who spoke, and before she could see how she moved, that person flew up in the air and was thrown straight outside of the city, flying out a long way, and finally smashing down into the sand beasts.

Under the torrent of sand beasts, but in a matter of moments, that person was torn to shreds by the sand beasts that had fallen into a berserk rage, devouring them cleanly, not even a bit of bone dregs were left behind.

This scene sent chills down the spines of the rest of the people who were pointed at.

Many cultivators were even secretly glad that they didn’t open their mouths just now, or else they would be the ones to die.

“You guys, are you willing to follow me out of the city and meet the enemy?”

The White Veil Demoness’s voice was gentle, but the crowd heard an irresistible meaning from her words.

If they dared to refuse, their fate would definitely be no different from the one who died in the Sand Beast Tide.

Under the threat of death, the crowd, no matter how reluctant they were, could only walk towards the city gates with their heads held high.

Following the White Veil Female Demon King, a few more Demon Kings stepped forward, each selecting over a hundred cultivators and commanding them to leave the city.

The several Demon Kings grunted lightly and explained impatiently.

“A dead guard, how can we hold out for seven days, go out of the city and kill the enemy, only then can we divide the power of the Sand Beasts, you guys won’t not understand this reasoning, right?”

The selected cultivator was in a low mood, but did not dare to argue.

They naturally understood this reasoning, it was just that the ones who were picked, why was it them?

Xu Chuniang was paying attention to the situation in the city when she suddenly felt the attention of a line of sight.

She followed the direction the line of sight came from and looked over, only to see the old man from the Artifact Refining Workshop, looking at himself with a smile on his face, and suddenly had a not-so-good feeling.

Sure enough, the next moment, the old man raised his hand and pointed towards her, “You too, follow me and go out of the city to meet the enemy together.”

Xu Chuniang was speechless, feeling that she was being targeted, but in full view of everyone, she didn’t say anything more and silently stood together with the others who had been singled out.

The old man quickly picked out the remaining people, and droned out in a neutral tone, “Depart!”

Seeking an opportunity, Xu Chuniang transmitted her voice at the old man and asked, “You picked me on purpose, didn’t you?”

The old man played dumb, “What? I chose randomly, there are so many cultivators in the city, whoever is chosen is who, why would I say it’s on purpose?” (End of chapter)
