Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

362 Jiao Dian City?

The two beasts soared across the sky on the Platform. This time its speed was even faster than before and it was quite high up in the sky. It was moving in the south eastern direction now and Lin Wu didn't know where it was going.

The system could not even keep up with the speed of the platform and update the map, thus Lin Wu just let it do a visual record of all that he saw and he would do a detailed area scan after they stopped.

"Huh? Is that city?" Lin Wu suddenly said upon seeing buildings in the distance.

He walked to the edge of the platform and saw that it really was a city.

"What city is this?" Lin Wu wondered as he looked at the map the system had.

"Jiao Dian City?" Lin Wu read.

According to the maps Lin Wu had scanned from the records, and the speed they were going at, the system estimated that the city below them was the Jiao Dian City. This city was one of the major cities of the Bing Kingdom and housed several thousand cultivators.

But Lin Wu instantly felt wrong.

'What if this stops at the city?' Lin Wu thought.

So far, the platform had only stopped in the empty wilderness and thus Lin Wu and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle did not have any problem. But if they really did stop in the territory of humans that it in the very sight of a large city like this, it would be problematic.

While most humans would not be able to see them in the sky as they were quite far up. Some of them will definitely notice, at least those in the Nascent Soul realm. But if they were unfortunate and the next platform was really in the city, they would be attacked for sure.

The humans would come to investigate the mysterious platform covered with barriers, formations, and runes; then they would see the two beasts standing within it. Thinking that it must have some fortunate encounter hidden they would approach the platform.

Then this would result in a conflict between the two beasts and the humans, resulting in enmity. Lin Wu had read plenty of novels to know how a plot like this progressed and it was exactly what he was dreading.

While he was sure he and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle would be able to take care of all the cultivators here with relative ease, the hidden experts would not take it lying down. They will definitely investigate it and it would then become a burden on Lin Wu's back.

'I don't want to expose myself more than it is necessary to the humans. It will only become problematic later on as they will try to meddle in my affairs or become curious about me.' Lin Wu thought.

"No hang on!" Lin Wu realized another thing. "Even if the platform does not land in the city, what if the next stone feather is not near it? Seeing it, there is a great chance someone would have found it by now and taken it."

~Sigh~

"This only gets more messed up… hopefully, this should be the last of the stone feathers seeing as it only had four slots." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

During his entire monologue, the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle was calmly recovering her strength. She paid no attention to him nor his words and likely would not wake up unless Lin Wu intentionally did so.

"It's better if she stays here and doesn't awaken. If she does wake up there is no chance these humans will survive. She can't see the long term effects and is short sighted." Lin Wu shook his head in helplessness.

And as Lin Wu had dreaded the platform reached the city, or more accurately the sky above the city.

~RUMBLE~

In the city below, the people were going about their day. No one knew that a shocking thing would be happening today.

"Is it an earthquake?" some commoners couldn't help but say.

"It's getting stronger! Quick, run to safety!" the city guards quickly warned the people.

The sound of the crowd running could be heard as everyone had scared expressions on their faces. The buildings along the streets all shook and some of them even started to collapse. The people who were unlucky were directly crushed by the falling buildings.

The cultivators were able to successfully escape it though and most did not even bother to save anyone. They simply cared for their lives and did their best to escape.

On one side of the city, a large pavilion was about to fall on top of a bunch of people who were sitting and drinking tea. This was a tea house that was located next to the pagoda.

"AAAAH!!!"

"SOMEONE SAVE US!" the people in the tea house shouted.

But in the next moment…

~BOOM~

A hole was punched through the falling pagoda and it avoided everyone that was in the tea house. The patrons of the tea house saw the source of that attack and saw that it was the old waiter who was serving everyone.

"Co-Core condensation?!" someone said unable to believe this sight.

All over Jiao Dian city scenes similar to this could be seen as some of the hidden experts were forced to reveal themselves. The commotion was larger than anything the city had seen before and it finally reached the higher ups.

"WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE!" A booming voice said as a map appeared in the sky.

"It's lord Mayor! Lord Mayor has come to save us!" The people rejoiced.

The man waved his hands as tides of spirit Qi came from his body. The spirit Qi quickly turned into illusory threads that all wrapped around the falling buildings.

~shua~

~shua~

~shua~

One after the other, tens of cultivators arrived on their spirit weapons as they started the rescue mission. Everywhere scenes of screaming and terror could be seen as the people suffered.

"Just what has happened to my city?" The mayor couldn't help but say as his face fell.
