Meanwhile, outside of Wudu.
In a dense forest, several people gathered atop beasts.
"Nangong Tianming has long since left, and now in this Wudu, only Zhang Xuanming and Chen Luojun, two Lord-level Spirit Masters, remain. Even if Li Taiyi left some backup plan, it would at most be a few Tier Five Spirit Beasts. How many can the two of them control?"
A middle-aged man dressed in King's Spirit Armor, entirely enveloped in fiery red, even his hair and beard resembling burning coals, sat atop the back of a king-species Tier Five Spirit Beast, his eyes fiery as he gazed at the gathered few: "In my view, we should attack the city now and uproot Li Taiyi's foundation!"
"No!"
Upon hearing this, the others shook their heads.
"Li Taiyi is no ordinary person, with hopes of advancing to Emperor-level and even the strongest Emperor Spirit. If we don't remove him first, breaking through Wudu will lead to repercussions we can't handle."
