The sound of a trumpet stopped the battle for a second before the city lord made his appearance.
Alex had predicted that he would come sooner, but it would seem he overestimated him. According to Anna's report, the city lord was having a good relationship with their leader. By attacking the blue-haired woman, it would surely make the city lord furious.
Unfortunately, fury alone was not enough for him to help her.
"You Bastard! What have you done?!" The city lord roared, looking down on them.
Alex checked his and the others' cultivations. The city lord himself was a 7-Star Martial Emperor. It was also the reason why only the elder at 6-Star Martial Emperor came to this place. They should not disrupt the city's order by sending a more powerful elder. Another possibility would be enticing the City Lord to become one of their elders. This way, the Joyful Union Sect would receive a powerful elder without cultivating him.
