BANG!
The City Lord was completely taken off guard.
Their formation had fallen… in a single strike? How was that even impossible? He was certain that there were no Perfect Sky Gods present, let alone the Omniscient Sky Gdo it would take to shatter the formation with such ease.
The only explanation was that Ryu had targeted the Formation's weakness, but it had only just been displayed, how could he see through it with such speed? No, even beyond that, Ryu was far too weak to see through such a thing. Although it was difficult to see Ryu's strength through the volatile energies, and especially the strength of the Nine Pillar Flame Sect's shroud, the City Lord was still sharp enough to be certain that he wasn't in the Sky God Realm's just yet.
'They must have scouted out the region beforehand! There are spies!'
The City Lord was suddenly standing on tenterhooks. He didn't know who to trust around him, but Ryu's army wasn't going to let him have the chance.
