Peerless Immortal Son-in-law

The entire giant city looked completely new. Although it could not be considered lively, it was still full of vitality. It was completely different from the deathly stillness of the outside world.    

    

The moment Ding Yi stepped into the city, he saw a team of people standing on both sides and were looking at Ding Yi with vigilance. They should be with the people outside. At this moment, they were all staring at Ding Yi with vigilance.    

    

These people were all wearing the armor from the ancient times. It looked a little strange, and it formed a strong contrast with the sixteen fully armed weapons specialists behind Ding Yi. It was as if they were people from different ages that were meeting across time and space.    

    

Although Ding Yi felt strange about this, he didn't ask about it. Under everyone's gaze, he walked into the city.    

    

The interior of the city was not considered to be very large. In fact, it was mainly because of the machines that occupied a large part of the area. Most of the tools were offensive weapons that were arranged neatly under the city wall in front of them.    

    

There were many people wearing ancient armor walking around, and there were almost no ordinary people visible here, because in the end, this huge city was just a defensive structure and not a real city. It could be said that this huge city was built to defend against the Northern Realm.    

    

"What can I do for you this time?" The middle-aged man followed and asked Ding Yi.    

    

There was doubt in his tone, and also a trace of unease. It was as if he was slightly fearful of Ding Yi, the person from Capital City.    

    

Ding Yi was keenly aware of this point. He looked at the other party strangely and said lightly: "We are here on orders to check if the northern border's defense is strong enough."    

    

"Where's your City Lord?"    

    

Since he was here, he naturally had to meet the person in charge.    

    

Hearing Ding Yi's words, the middle-aged man took a deep breath, rolled his eyeballs and said: "Our Patriarch is currently in closed door training, do you want me to arrange some rooms so that you can have a rest first?"    

    

"Seclusion?" Ding Yi frowned and immediately made the middle-aged man nervous.    

    

However, Ding Yi did not say anything more. He just waved his hand and walked up the city wall and said, "No need, I'll go up to take a look."    

    

"Sure, this way, please." The middle-aged man quickly nodded and led the way, guiding Ding Yi.    

    

Ever since he confirmed Ding Yi's identity, his heart had started to be anxious. Why did the Capital City send Ding Yi here at this time?    

    

Could it be that that matter was exposed? He quickly shook his head. Even the tallest in the city only knew about it. He had only heard about it by accident. How could there have been any news about it? Could it be a traitor among those people?    

    

While thinking, he guided Ding Yi to the top of the city wall.    

    

At that moment, there were quite a few soldiers standing on the city walls. Every meter was filled with soldiers. They held their binoculars as they looked into the distance from time to time.    

    

The moment he stepped onto the city wall, Ding Yi smelled a faint scent of blood. He squinted his eyes and looked down. The green stone wall had been dyed red, and the smell of blood was coming from above.    

    

Below the city, there were countless broken limbs piled up in a thick layer. If it wasn't for the cold weather at the northern border, these limbs would have reeked of stench long ago. But now, they were like a layer of ice that covered the ground.    

    

An image appeared in Ding Yi's mind. He seemed to see those monsters that climbed out of the Northern Realm crawling towards the giant city, and the soldiers on the giant city, fearlessly beat those monsters back time and again.    

    

It was too tragic. Compared to the darkness and chaos of the past, it was not much weaker.    

    

Ding Yi had experienced that kind of period before, so he knew clearly that despair and helplessness. He took a deep breath, the devastation at the northern border was indeed beyond his imagination.    

    

"This place looks a little like the ancient battlefield of the Wilderness." Wen Yi sighed as he stood beside Ding Yi.    

    

He had seen the tragic state of the ancient battlefield in the Wilderness. Although this place could not be compared to the ancient battlefield in the Wilderness, it already had that feeling. If this was to continue, this huge city's defensive line would turn into a deathly still battlefield just like the ancient battlefield in the Wilderness.    

    

Countless corpses piled up on Chengshan. This place would become a gathering place for the undead, and the entire city would be flooded with endless corpses.    

    

This caused Ding Yi to ponder deeply. He even doubted Young Emperor's words before he came.    

    

The scene here was completely different from what Young Emperor described. The misery here could simply be described as hell on earth, but Young Emperor and the others were concerned about it. The powers here no longer listened to their orders.    

    

How could he not listen to the orders? Ding Yi had some doubts in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface and didn't show any abnormalities.    

    

Suddenly, a horn sounded in the distance.    

    

The sound was distant and oppressive. It came from far away, and one could not see the source, but they could hear the sadness and depression from the horn.    

    

"Beiye City has been attacked." Hearing the sound of the horn, the face of the guard that received Ding Yi changed.    

    

It had only been two days, but Bei Ye City was already under attack. Their five huge cities were all releasing their energy, so if Bei Ye city was attacked, the other cities would probably not be any better off. At the same time, the city they were in would also be under attack very soon.    

    

"Everyone, stay alert! Be careful!"    

    

"We will definitely be affected by the attack on Beiye City. Everyone, watch carefully!"    

    

The city guards immediately began to arrange matters in an orderly manner. They had to observe the situation carefully. Only by discovering the enemy's attack in advance would they be able to better prepare a response.    

    

After the arrangements were made, the general's face was slightly gloomy. He looked at the exhausted soldiers on the wall and smiled helplessly at Ding Yi. "My apologies, sir. I have let you down."    

    

"This way please, I will arrange a place for you to stay. Otherwise, if the enemy attacks later, I might not have time to arrange these things." Although the words of the guard general weren't nice, it was a fact. Who would have the time to arrange lodging for Ding Yi and the others if the enemy attacked?    

    

"Alright." Ding Yi nodded and added, "If you need anything, just ask."    

    

As for the 16 people that he had brought with him, Ding Yi shook his head. Although they were at the level of a soldier king in the country, they were still nothing in front of him, so they should not be of much use in defending the city.    

    

The guard nodded his head but did not speak. It was as if he did not take Ding Yi's words seriously and brought them down from the city wall.
