CHAPTER 335: CHAPTER 337: VISITORS FROM THE IMPERIAL CAPITAL!

Jiangyuan Mountain, Celestial King Stronghold.

Invisibility Evolver Li Yuan casually greeted the brothers guarding the cave entrance, then hurriedly entered the cave.

One minute later.

The boss, Wang Tianming, looking at Li Yuan who rushed over to report, frowned and asked, "Li Yuan, how is it? Have they left?"

"Boss, not yet! However, I discovered something major. Tonight, they were attacked by fierce beasts, probably fourth-tier beasts. One appears to be an extremely ferocious flying fierce beast, and the other is a giant pangolin that burrowed directly out of the ground..."

Li Yuan first shook his head, then spoke rapidly, with a tinge of shock.

"A fourth-tier fierce bird and a pangolin fierce beast?"

Hearing this, Wang Tianming was so shocked that he stood up from his seat.

He had dealt with that guy Huang Xuan before and knew that the other party had a fourth-tier fierce bird and a fourth-tier mutated pangolin under his command.

If only one appeared, he wouldn’t suspect it was related to Huang Xuan, as it could be coincidental, but with both fourth-tier fierce beasts linked to Huang Xuan appearing simultaneously, it must be related to Huang Xuan.

"It seems the destruction of the Beast King Sect is likely related to those evolved zombies on the mountain path, and Huang Xuan is probably here for revenge."

For a moment, Wang Tianming felt a great sense of relief that he didn’t get involved.

Neither side can be offended by their little Celestial King Stronghold. Just one fourth-tier combatant can sweep them away in an instant.

"Li Yuan, you don’t need to worry about the battle between zombies and fierce beasts. Your most important task is to continue monitoring until they clear the mountain road and leave. Do you understand?"

Gradually regaining his composure, Wang Tianming looked at Li Yuan again and slowly said.

"Understood, boss. I’ll head over immediately. I won’t let them escape my sight."

Hearing this, Li Yuan nodded confidently in his abilities, as he was best at tasks like surveillance.

"Remember not to get too close to avoid being discovered. I don’t need you to gather any specific information, just confirm when they leave."

Seeing Li Yuan about to turn and leave, Wang Tianming couldn’t help but remind him again. He was also afraid that if Li Yuan exposed himself, it would affect them, and if the enemy was drawn to the cave, it would be over.

If the opponent sends just one fourth-tier evolved zombie, they would be doomed.

"Understood, boss!"

Li Yuan nodded heavily. He was afraid of dying, and he wasn’t willing to get close.

...

The sky gradually brightened as night receded, and a thin morning mist rose in the forest.

Lu Chuan, sitting in the passenger seat, opened his eyes, a flash of joy passing through them. Thanks to the efforts of Earth Escape One and Da Pang’s team, the blocked path had been cleared.

After staying the night, they could finally set off again.

Once Earth Escape One and other Corpse Puppets returned, Lu Chuan focused his thoughts, and the convoy that had been stationary all night roared back to life and continued moving forward.

As for the whereabouts of the Beast King Sect’s Sect Leader, Lu Chuan believed the other party would continue to pursue them.

Shortly after the convoy set off, Zhao Lin and Ji Ruxue were awakened by the noise.

Zhao Lin pulled the small blanket off her and, with drowsy eyes, instinctively looked out the window.

Immediately, a gleam flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Lu Chuan with excitement, smiling, "Lu Chuan, is the road cleared, and are we moving ahead again?"

Lu Chuan nodded in response.

"That’s great, finally not having to stay in that godforsaken place."

Zhao Lin was full of joy.

The previous mountain road was simply terrible, with dampness, mosquitoes, and not a single suitable place to pitch a tent.

At this moment, Ji Ruxue, sitting beside Zhao Lin, also smiled and looked out the window.

"Lu Chuan, now that we’ve left Shanchuan City, where are we heading next?"

Zhao Lin suddenly remembered and then looked at Lu Chuan, asking.

Sitting in the front, Lu Chuan didn’t respond directly, but handed over a map with marked routes.

Zhao Lin took it, and looked at the map’s routes with interest.

At the same time, at Jianghai Base City, inside a simple indoor airport.

Morning light cascaded down on the empty airport runway, where a row of figures stood.

Standing at the forefront, facing the chilly morning wind, was Jianghai Base City’s chief.

Behind him stood the high-level members of the Base City, with a few news staff holding cameras and other tools on the periphery.

The group was gathered in this airport to welcome the strongest elite squad sent from the Imperial Capital—the Soaring Dragon Squad.

It was thanks to the Soaring Dragon Squad that the Imperial Capital managed to kill the Corpse King that had caused chaos for days.

This time, the mission of their Base City was to provide the best support for the Soaring Dragon Squad and assist them in killing the Corpse King.

Standing at the forefront, the Base City Chief frowned, concerned as the appointed time had arrived, yet they hadn’t appeared. Could something have happened?

"Chief, it’s already the arrival time given by the Soaring Dragon Squad to the Base City. Do you think something might have..."

At this moment, a high-ranking official behind him checked his watch and couldn’t help but say.

"Don’t say such things lightly. The Soaring Dragon Squad, as the Imperial Capital’s elite squad, has even taken down a Corpse King. There’s no need to doubt their strength. Let’s wait a bit longer."

The Base City Chief’s face fell, and he spoke coldly.

The moment his words fell, a buzzing noise came from the far sky. A formation of helicopters, appearing as black dots, rapidly approached Jianghai City from afar.

"Chief, they’re here!"

Someone shouted in delight, and other high-ranking members saw it too.

Everyone fell silent, waiting quietly for the helicopter formation to land, and the scene was instantly quiet.

At this moment, the Base City Chief, seeing the helicopter formation, felt a sense of joy—finally, they were here.

The helicopters were fast, quickly and gently landing in front of the crowd.

Buzz buzz buzz~

Before the blades on the helicopters had fully stopped, the doors swung open, and several combat-dressed evolvers stepped out, totaling seven individuals.

After disembarking, the seven members of the Soaring Dragon Squad quickly walked towards the Base City Chief.

"Ha ha, welcome! Welcome to the Soaring Dragon Squad to our Jianghai City to deal with the Corpse King. Captain Li, on behalf of the entire Jianghai Base City, I welcome all of you."

The Base City Chief led the group to meet them, shaking hands with the middle-aged man at the forefront, being very polite.

This man was none other than the captain of the Soaring Dragon Squad—Li Heng.

"Chief, you’re too kind. This time, our Soaring Dragon Squad is here to help Jiang Province kill that harmful entity. It’s our squad’s duty."

After shaking hands, Li Heng, with a determined look, led his team members to bow to the people present.
