Chapter 661: Chapter 507: Golden Weapon

Yinkun, who could see nothing, suddenly heard footsteps approaching. His heart stirred and he shouted, "Who is it?" Unable to control himself, he rose to his feet, hands already clenched into fists.

"Kun, it’s me—" A somewhat frightened female voice rang out, followed immediately by the voice of a little girl, "Dad!"

Recognizing these two voices, Yinkun relaxed a little, his taut body sinking back into his seat. "Mulan, Ni’er, why have you come... I didn’t want you... to see me like this." At this, he covered his face, hiding it in his hands.

The two arrivals were none other than Yinkun’s wife Mulan and his young daughter Yin Ni’er.

"I told them to come." Suddenly, another voice laughed.

At this sound, Yinkun’s face turned pale and he abruptly stood up, expression uncertain, "You’re Liuhuan?"

"Yes, Lord Yinkun, I am Liuhuan." The voice was serious now, and Yinkun heard the door to the temple creak open, followed by the sound of approaching footsteps. Clearly, a large number of people were entering.

Yinkun erupted, "Didn’t I tell you to get out of here? Who gave you permission to enter? Liuhuan, was this your idea?"

The Liuhuan he mentioned was his deputy, also the first vice-leader of the "Black Dragon Giant City", forever loyal to him. Even now, Yinkun was yet to understand what was happening.

"It was my idea, but... also one from above." Liuhuan’s response was calm. At this, Yinkun began to grasp the situation, but still couldn’t contain his disbelief, "I don’t believe—"

Just at his words, flames suddenly shot up from the bronze furnace in the center of the room. The flames flickered and gradually formed into a shape: a human figure made of fire.

Liuhuan, a handsome, cold man in his thirties, knelt respectfully.

"Yinkun... this is... our... decision... You... are no longer suitable... to be... the Lord... of the Giant City..." An indistinct voice emanated from the figure of fire.

Even though Yinkun couldn’t see, he could hear. This made him scream, "So you have chosen Liuhuan to replace me? No, even though I am blind, I am stronger than Liuhuan. He is not qualified to replace me!"

As he spoke, Yinkun again took his place on the throne, gripping the chair handles firmly. He was deeply attached to his position, to the feeling of being high above others. Even though he was blind, he would not give his position to Liuhuan.

Upon hearing Yinkun’s words, Liuhuan’s brow furrowed slightly.

"Kun, stop fighting. Won’t it be nice for the three of us to live a quiet life together?" Yinkun’s wife couldn’t help but cry out.

"Dada, you promised Ni’er! You said you would take me to the Snow Mountain to pick ice flowers—" His daughter joined her mother’s plea.

Yinkun’s body trembled. Liuhuan looked at him and sighed quietly. According to the rules of the "Black Dragon Giant City", the Upper Realm had the power to appoint and dismiss the City Lord. The incumbent Lord also had two rights. The first one was to follow the instructions of the Upper Realm and peacefully step down, just like the previous City Lord Mayano. Of course, Mayano had been eager to step down and focus on exploring the world beyond.

The second right was to challenge the newly appointed City Lord chosen by the Upper Realm. If the incumbent could defeat the successor, they could continue being the City Lord. This was the mutual right of the Upper Realm and the City Lords.

Liuhuan hoped that Yinkun would be wise enough to voluntarily resign. He had intentionally brought Yinkun’s wife and daughter, hoping they could move him to step down without a fight.

Unfortunately, Liuhuan’s hopes were dashed. As Yinkun gripped the throne and shook, he finally let out a hoarse shout: "Liuhuan, you won’t have this position unless you can defeat me!" Immediately after he said these words, he let out a roar and pounced towards Liuhuan.

Though blind, he had sensed Liuhuan through his breath and the direction of his voice. Yinkun lunged forward, his body instantly transforming into bones that wrapped him in a white bone armor. These white bones covered his head and entire body. Not only this, the bones at his back extended out, quickly forming into two wings of bone.

"Liuhuan, what gives you the right to fight me?" Yinkun roared, his bone wings raised. He swung his arms, releasing countless white bone bullets whooshing towards Liuhuan.

Liuhuan stood still, a faint smile on his lips, as countless bone bullets hit him simultaneously.

With a crisp noise, Liuhuan’s body shattered to pieces, the real Liuhuan had already appeared somewhere else. He raised his right hand, revealing the Golden Arrow crossbow. With a "whoosh" sound, a Golden Arrow instantly hit Yinkun.

Yinkun let out a fierce howl, his bone armor could not withstand a single hit, instantaneously pierced by the Golden Arrow.

"Impossible..." Though unable to see the Golden Arrow, Yinkun could feel the terrifying power of it. It was horrific, his bone armor instantly pierced. Even though Yinkun had strong armor, he was still overwhelmed by the intense attack.

Yinkun fell heavily, feeling the terrifying energy piercing his body, was unable to stop himself from crying out, "Golden Weapon? No...Is this... Is this a weapon bestowed by the Upper Realm? No, I can’t accept—"

Finally, Yinkun understood, Liuhuan was not as strong as he was, there was no way an ordinary attack could’ve inflicted such damage. It was all because the Upper Realm had granted him the special Golden Weapon. Struggling to get up, Yinkun felt a cold look from Liuhuan, who then shot arrows one after another from his Golden Arrow crossbow. The arrows hit Yinkun’s arms and legs. Pretty soon, Yinkun was screaming in agony, his limbs blown apart. Liuhuan then stepped on Yinkun’s chest.

Blood trickled from the corner of Yinkun’s mouth. His wife and daughters cried and tried to rush to him but were blocked by individuals dressed in black.

"Liu...Liuhuan..." Yinkun, finally knowing he had no chance, wanted to pleade for mercy, but Liuhuan shook his head, pointing his Golden Arrow crossbow at Yinkun’s head, "Yinkun, you should understand the rules we must follow. Don’t beg for mercy, and don’t let your wife and daughter beg for you. I gave you a chance, but you didn’t seize it—" Then, without giving Yinkun a chance to respond, he pulled the trigger, and the arrow from the Golden Arrow crossbow shot out, instantly exploding Yinkun’s head.

Then he coldly looked at Yinkun’s wife and daughters, saying, "Take them all away."

Yinkun’s corpse and his wife and daughters were dragged away by the group of people in black, their screams of mourning echoing throughout the Temple.

Liuhuan was motionless, putting away the Golden Arrow crossbow, then respectfully knelt down before the bronze furnace.

The flame figure on the bronze furnace seemed very satisfied with Liuhuan’s performance. The intermittent voice started, "From now... onwards... you are... the new... lord... of the Black Dragon Giant City... Now granted... a.... Demon Beast..."

Upon hearing this, an excited expression appeared on Liuhuan’s face.

The flame suddenly churned up. Soon, a black Demon God Core appeared within it, then it landed with a ’clink’ in front of Liuhuan.

With slightly trembling hands, Liuhuan accepted the "Demon God Core". Having this Demon God Core, from today onwards, he would officially succeed as the head of "Black Dragon Giant City," becoming one of the top ten power holders in the Black Iron World.

Although, he was still a servant of the Maya Clan of the Upper Realm, but in this world, he had finally reached the pinnacle of power.

"Liuhuan...the nine Pillar Gods...and the ’Black Iron City Lord’...have a half-year agreement...but, even though we...can’t personally take action, we... can use others...Liuhuan...do you understand the intentions of the Upper Realm?"

Liuhuan was thoughtful, and he nodded and answered, "Are there any other instructions from the Upper Realm?"

The flame figure seemed to smile slightly, then slowly said, "Find a way...to draw the White Tiger...in...and handle him...well...if you make a...meritorious deed...when the time is ripe...you...can...step out...of this world..." As he spoke, the flame started to fade until the bronze furnace restored its tranquillity.

Liuhuan, clutching the Demon God Core in his palm, murmured: "White Tiger... Does the Upper Realm want me...to provoke...the grudge between Black Iron City Lord... and White Tiger...to kill him by White Tiger’s hands? I didn’t expect...the Pillar Gods...to be so afraid of him? This Black Iron City Lord...Su Yu..."

Liuhuan knew that Yinkun’s downfall, facing such an end, was all because of Su Yu. At the moment, the order from the Upper Realm was clearly for him to quietly provoke a feud between Su Yu and other giant cities. The Upper Realm wanted him to make indirect arrangements for murder.

During the ’Black Iron City’ battle, all five Holy Envoys were killed, and ’Black Iron City’ also suffered heavy losses, almost completely destroyed. However, in less than ten days, it had completely recovered. When Su Yu received the news on his ’City Lord’s Insignia’, he just smiled slightly. Now that ’Black Iron City’ had been restored to its original state, he could not be disrespecting it, and it was indeed not a permanent solution to have thousands of people staying in ’Peach Blossom Town’.

After saying goodbye to Cai Hanbin and his wife, Su Yu led thousands of warriors belonging to ’Black Iron City’ in an imposing manner towards ’Black Iron City’.

Upon returning to ’Black Iron City’, he found that not only had ’Black Iron City’ been restored, but it seemed to have become even more magnificent than before. Clearly, the ’Sky Reaching Giant City’ had indeed put a lot of effort into rebuilding ’Black Iron City’. (To be continued. To find out what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com.
