In City Lord's Mansion, the dignified middle-aged man in the purple robe let out a sigh of relief. "This city is one of the huge cities controlled by the Star Palace of the Star Domain. The defensive barrier here is extremely powerful, so it should be able to block the attacks of the Evil-eyed Lion. The only thing left is to wait for the Star Palace's experts to come and help us."
"It would be best if the Star Lord came. With the Star Lord's strength, he would definitely be able to eliminate this group of evil beasts."
"Even if it's a Star Envoy who comes here, it would be best if it's a Ruler Realm envoy."
The Star Palace was the strongest power in the Star Domain. Star Domain was ruled by nine Star Palaces. Thus, there were a total of nine Star Lords. Under the Star Lord was the Star Envoy, and it was the strongest power in the Star Palace apart from the Star Lord.
The purple-robed middle-aged man was only a Sixth Marked Heavenly Divine Lord. He was One Mark weaker than the City Lord of this giant city.
A group of Evil-eyed Lions came out from the black clouds. Some of them were thick and big like a mountain, while others were tall and slender like true dragons.
These Evil-eyed Lions continuously roared as their voices kept surging in the air like shockwaves. Then, pitch-black beams shot out from their mouths, continuously smashing against the defensive barrier of the city. The rumbling sounds continuously rang out.
The intense vibration and the rumbling sound that resounded through the sky caused the faces of all the Martial Artists present in the city to turn pale.
There were indeed many experts in this unknown world, but Heavenly Divine Lord was still a dividing line. Adding up all the Heavenly Divine Lord Realm powerhouses in this enormous city, there were at most 200 of them. In the face of thousands of densely packed Evil-eyed Lions, 200 Heavenly Divine Lords were nothing.
These thousands of Evil-eyed Lions were all at the Heavenly Divine Lord Realm.
"So many of them, what is those five God Realm Evil-eyed Lions thinking. They actually sent so many of their clansmen to attack the city." The purple-robed middle-aged man's face was also miserable, not looking good at all.
"But luckily, the defensive barrier is strong enough. As long as it's not a Ruler Realm Evil-eyed Lion, it shouldn't be able to break the barrier in a short period of time." The purple-robed man's words came to an abrupt halt because another Evil-eyed Lion emerged from within the black clouds. This Evil-eyed Lion also had black wings on its back and its tail was several hundred meters long.
Roar!
This Ruler Level Evil-eyed Lion released a furious roar, causing the entire sky to tremble. Its voice was like a storm as it swept out. The ground around the giant city instantly caved in.
The purple-robed middle-aged man's expression changed. His eyes were filled with despair. "Ruler Level Evil-eyed Lion actually appeared. Now, no one can save this city!"
A Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion... The defensive barrier of the giant city could not defend against it at all. The outcome of the giant city could be imagined.
Sure enough, the Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion spat out a black ball from its mouth. The black ball produced a sizzling sound of thunder, and the black ball of thunder shot toward the defensive barrier. After the defensive barrier shook for a while, many cracks instantly appeared on it.
From the looks of it, as long as the Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion attacked a few more times, the defensive barrier would completely shatter.
The purple-robed middle-aged man couldn't help but send another message to the Star Palace. This time, the message contained information on the appearance of the Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion.
"The Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion should be able to attract the Star Lord's attention. As long as the Star Lord takes action, he should be able to arrive in an extremely short amount of time." The purple-robed middle-aged man could only hope that the Star Lord would come and save them.
The Star Domain had nine Star Palaces and they rule the Star Domain together. Eight of them were in an octagonal formation, and the ninth Star Palace was in the center of the eight Star Palaces. It was also the residence of the Star Domain's most powerful Star Lord. The ninth Star Palace was known as Great Star Palace and its ruler was called Great Star Lord. Great Star Lord was also the only Exalted Ruler in the entire Star Domain.
There were dozens of huge cities near the eight Star Palaces. These huge cities were directly governed by the Star Palace's trusted aides. The Star Palace's orders were the highest order.
Although the many powers outside the huge cities were also in the Star Domain and ruled by the Star Palace, they did not necessarily have to focus on the Star Palace for everything.
The huge city the purple-robed middle-aged man was in was one of the dozens of giant cities under the command of the Eighth Star Palaces. It was extremely close to one of the Star Palaces, and if the Star Lord or even Star Envoy were to make a move, they would arrive in less than two hours. At that time, the Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion would be nothing.
This giant city's city lord was also outside, fighting against the army of Evil-eyed Lions. So, what the purple-robed middle-aged man wanted to do now was stall for two hours, for he believed Star Palace would definitely take action.
However, could he really delay it for two hours? The purple-robed middle-aged man was somewhat uncertain.
With the second attack from the Ruler level Evil-eyed Lion, the defensive barrier was on the verge of collapse. The purple-robed middle-aged man's face became even paler, but soon, something happened that stunned him. After two consecutive attacks, the Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion actually stopped attacking. It only flew in the air as it coldly stared at the other Evil-eyed Lions attacking the defensive barrier.
"What... What's going on?" The purple-robed middle-aged man had no idea what was going on.
Not far from the giant city, the Star Lord of the Eighth Star Palace, who was addressed as the Eighth Star Lord by the people, was flying towards the giant city where the purple-robed middle-aged man was.
"A Ruler level Evil-eyed Lion has actually appeared. Is this revenge for the Third Star Lord's previous attack on the Evil-eyed Lions?" The Eighth Star Lord's face was cold. A hint of shock flashed through his eyes. "As expected, the Evil-eyed Lions that have reached the Ruler level all have their own intelligence. Otherwise, even with the five God-Level Evil-eyed Lions controlling them behind their backs, they wouldn't be able to take revenge like this."
At this moment, the purple-robed middle-aged man happened to pass on the strange behavior of the Ruler-level Evil-eyed Lion outside the giant city to the Star Palace.
As the Star Lord of the Eighth Star Palace, the Eighth Star Lord immediately received the information.
When the Eighth Star Lord saw this information, he also revealed a puzzled expression on his face. But very quickly, the Eighth Star Lord's expression changed drastically.
"Not good, the main target of these Evil-eyed Lions must be us Star Lords!" The face of the Eighth Star Lord suddenly changed as he stopped in midair. It was also at this moment that the space around him started cracking as several Evil-eyed Lions crawled out of the cracked space. These Evil-eyed Lions stared coldly at the Eighth Star Lord. The aura that was being emitted from their body had shockingly reached the Ruler Level!
The face of the Eighth Star Lord instantly stiffened. He was only a Ruler. He definitely can not deal with so many Ruler Level Evil-eyed Lions.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
All the Ruler Level Evil-eyed Lions surrounded the Eighth Star Lord and roared at him. Their eyes were filled with blood lust and anyone could sense the ruthlessness in their aura. They were staring at the Eighth Star Lord while roaring furiously.
Their roars caused the air to fluctuate heavily. Terrifying soundwaves were born and spread far wide, destroying tall trees and mountains at the far distance instantly.
Even the Eighth Star Lord's face paled and blood rolled down from the corner of his mouth and right eye. Even his nose and ears started bleeding.
"Please, don't!"
The Eighth Star Lord was trembling in fear. He couldn't help but regret coming out from the Star Palace.
How could the Evil-eyed Lions let the Eighth Star Lord go? Their main aim was to kill all the Star Lords. Since one of them has come, they would never let him escape.
All of them opened their mouths as black balls sparkling with lightning came out from all of their mouths. Then all the black balls were thrown at the Eighth Star Lord at once.
