"Immortal Master, I beg you, save the people of this city!"
Some people kneeling in front of the Guarding Heavenly Master's mansion had spotted Wang Chen hovering in the sky; their cries and pleas grew louder, some even kowtowed repeatedly.
Wang Chen hesitated for a moment then steered the flying boat to hover above the main gate and asked, "What's happened?"
Since he had been stationed at the Nan Shao Guarding Heavenly Master's mansion, local gentry often visited with generous gifts.
Wang Chen had all of them turned away.
If these people were seeking help for their own interests, he wouldn't pay them any heed.
But if it actually involved the lives of the hundreds of thousands of people in Nan Shao City, Wang Chen was willing to listen.
"Maitreya Sect, the Maitreya Sect has rebelled!"
A gentry wept, "They've brought three thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Divine Generals and a hundred thousand troops, intending to annihilate Nan Shao City!"
