Humblest Greetings, My Lord!

In a flash, several of his high-leveled Golden Battle Lions marched towards the castle with a majestic stride!

As for the remaining Golden Battle Lions, they charged toward the lords beside him!

Everyone had a look of surprise when they saw that!

"What is he doing?!"

"Attack, Fatty Blue Warrior! If you don't, I'll be bitten to death by this lion!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Does he want to seize control over Su Hao's territory and kill us too?"

"Hey! You on the lion! You should've said so earlier! I would've gone with you! Dealing with everything alone isn't going to be easy!"

The group's troops were all fleeing for their lives. Some were bitten to death by the Golden Battle Lion, while others who tried to join Gu Fei's group ended up being attacked instead.

Everyone in the castle had different thoughts!

Some of the lords saw that the situation was turning awry and dashed to the warehouse to take whatever they could!

Some still shouted, "Su Hao hasn't returned yet! You can't do this!"

Some of them were crying for help because their troops had been injured by the Golden Battle Lion!

In short, the scene was extremely chaotic, and everyone scrambled everywhere!

Gu Fei, however, was the only one who was watching everything coldly.

Had he known earlier that chaos would ensue, he would have gotten rid of everyone along the journey.

It would have saved him the trouble of having to take action at the last minute.

However, it was still not too late to do so, for he could not possibly pass on that once-in-a-millenium opportunity.

The empty might be empty, but it had such magnificent buildings and a well-stocked warehouse.

His eyes were filled with delight as he glanced coldly at the frightened lords being attacked by the Golden Battle Lions.

All of a sudden, the gate slammed shut at that precise moment!

Moments later, a mass of darkness appeared in the sky along with a shrill cry!

More than 100,000 Sacred Night Bugs came charging toward them from the highest floor of the Skyscraper Tower!

Everyone shouted when they saw that!

"Run!"

"What is this!!"

"There's so many of them!"

No one could escape, as the bugs scattered in all directions!

The lords had fled to the tops and corners of the walls, and there was almost nowhere else to escape! To their surprise, however, they soon realized that the dark mass of bugs was not targeting them!

Instead, they were targeting the lords who wanted to take over the city and rob its resources!

The lord who had just gathered all kinds of food from the warehouse was running around in a panicked expression!

His troops merely stood beside him, watching as he was besieged by the swarm of bugs!

Meanwhile, gu fei's eyes darkened.

The situation had gone south!

It was a trap!

He immediately yelled for the surrounding Golden Battle Lions to dodge the bugs, but for some reason, none of the lions were listening to his orders due to the sheer might of the Sacred Night Bugs!

Furthermore, the lions were fleeing in all directions, as if they were facing an unprecedented horror.

They continued to howl, but their roars were unlike before—they sounded more agonized than excited!

The next second, the Sacred Night Bugs charged wildly at the level eight Golden Battle Lion!

The moment they came into contact with the Golden Battle Lion, it was enveloped by a whole entire swarm.

The next second, that level eight Golden Battle Lion had turned into a skeleton.

Gu Fei's heart trembled the moment he saw his highest-leveled mount turn into a pile of bones!

He stood rooted to the ground with a dazed expression.

'How is that even possible?! My troop is SS-Grade! No troop or beast had ever defeated my troop!'

He could even easily deal with a level 10 Giant Python in the past!

An SS-Grade troop type should not have faced such an end!

He stood rooted to the ground and was unable to think.

Even so, he immediately continued to give orders after recovering from the shock!

"Continue!"

However, the rest of the level seven Golden Battle Lions were rooted to the ground, and even their roars became as soft as chirping birds.

The troops of all the other lords shrank into a ball at that moment and did not even dare to escape. All they did was freeze and cower, as if they were already waiting for their impending death!

At that moment, the 100,000 or Sacred Night Bugs seemed to have stopped attacking. Rather, they flapped their wings and hovered in the air.

Everyone who was present there was shocked by the scene!

"What kind of troop is this? how could they devour a level eight Golden Battle Lion alive? A few seconds was all it took to turn the lion into a pile of bones!"

"I was scared to death! I thought I was going to die!"

"Big Shot Su Hao! Su Hao, My Lord! We're not enemies! We're here to seek refuge with you! I know you're nearby, please let us go!"

…

Gu Fei could only smile helplessly when he understood what happened.

It turned out that Su Hao was waiting for their true colors to be exposed so that he could discern all the lords' intentions in the shortest time possible.

It became easy to distinguish those who wanted to become his citizens from those whose malicious intentions were to rebel and seize his territory..

After all, people would only lose their rationality and reveal their true self in the face of desire.

Su Hao, on the other hand, stood behind the scenes and watched quietly as they lost their sense of propriety.

He had done everything without needing to do anything.

To think that the Endless Continent would have a lord with such a powerful troop and such extraordinary intelligence!

Gu Fei accepted his loss.

After acknowledging his defeat, he sighed silently, straightened his back, and lowered his head slightly while speaking in the direction of the entrance gate, "Please come out, My Lord. I accept my defeat."

As soon as he concluded his sentence, the tightly shut gate opened from the outside!

Everyone could see Su Hao walking in with a cold face.

Behind him were more than 50 tall militiamen, all of whom were wearing armor and carrying weapons. Both he and his militiamen walked in with solemn expressions!

Upon seeing that, everyone knelt down on one knee and placed their right hand on their left chest. They called out in unison, "Humblest greetings, My Lord!"

Meanwhile, Gu Fei merely lowered his head and gave the man a slight nod.

Su Hao glanced at the crowd.

His eyes were profoundly icy, as if his heart was completely frozen. One could feel as though anyone who came into his line of sight would meet a terrible end.

The second his eyes glanced at Gu Fei's, Gu Fei felt his heart tremble and a chill instantly ran down his spine!

He never expected Su Hao's aura to be so powerful!

If he did not submit soon, his life might come to an end!

With this thought, he took a deep breath and clenched his fists.

Seconds later, he held his breath, knelt down on one knee, and placed his clenched right fist on his left chest.

"Humblest greetings, My Lord!"
