Seeing the dense mass of Blazing Fire Drought Demons pouring into Rongcheng Base City, Zheng Dong summoned Little Zi.
Little Zi used its deterrence skill, stunning all the Blazing Fire Drought Demons.
Then, it used Gravity Control, making these Blazing Fire Drought Demons fly into the air, and then used Infinite Devour to devour them all.
If it weren't for the fear of accidentally harming other beast tamers, Little Zi could have used Starry Sky Black Hole or Infinite Devour.
The invading Blazing Fire Drought Demons were strong overall, but the strongest one didn't come, meaning none of them had condensed a divine spark. They were simply no match for Little Zi's attacks.
Clearly, the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom did not take Rongcheng Base City seriously.
As for the Blazing Fire Drought Demon that attacked Xiao Lin, it had an even worse fate.
Upon seeing the suddenly appearing Zheng Dong, it was enraged and launched an attack.
However, the attack was completely blocked by the divine blood shield on Zheng Dong's body.
It refused to believe it and unleashed various skills.
Unfortunately, it was still useless.
When Zheng Dong turned to look at it, it froze.
A terrifying aura erupted from Zheng Dong.
This aura was even stronger than that of their Totem Kingdom's patriarch.
Without hesitation, it turned to flee.
However, in the next second, it found itself unable to move.
A hand, it didn't know when, had been placed on it, and it ignored the flames on its body.
Immediately after, its body was completely frozen, becoming an ice sculpture.
Zheng Dong had used the ultimate skill, Eternal Freeze.
Eternal Freeze was imprinted from Little Qing, and it was activated using the power of Ice Law and Time Law, capable of unleashing terrifying power. It was not impossible to instantly freeze a city.
With Zheng Dong's current strength, he could achieve this.
After dealing with the Blazing Fire Drought Demon, Zheng Dong helped Xiao Lin up.
Xiao Lin was burned in multiple places, his internal organs seemed to have been roasted to about thirty percent doneness, and none of his spirit beasts had survived.
Fortunately, his beast-taming space was not destroyed.
However, in this condition, Xiao Lin did not believe he could survive.
He looked at Zheng Dong and managed a difficult smile.
"That's great, you're still alive. With you here, Rongcheng still has hope!"
Every word Xiao Lin spoke was painful.
But if he didn't say it, he feared he would never be able to speak again.
Zheng Dong did not respond to Xiao Lin.
Green vines sprouted from Zheng Dong's left hand, quickly wrapping around Xiao Lin and emitting a dazzling light, rapidly healing Xiao Lin's burns.
The ultimate skill, Five-Colored Radiance, possessed strong healing effects.
Now that Ling'er had condensed a divine spark, the power unleashed by Five-Colored Radiance was even stronger than before.
After all, it could mobilize the power of Life Law.
Xiao Lin immediately felt the pain disappear, as if he had entered a comfortably warm hot spring, every pore of his body relaxing, feeling incredibly at ease.
"How can Rongcheng's future be without President Xiao!" Zheng Dong said with a smile.
Xiao Lin looked at Zheng Dong in surprise.
"You haven't become a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer, have you!"
He was well aware of his injuries. Even with a Totem-tier spirit beast using healing skills, it would be difficult to heal.
And Zheng Dong's spirit beast hadn't even appeared, yet it had easily healed him.
This was likely not something an ordinary quasi-divine beast could achieve.
"Not yet!" Zheng Dong replied.
Xiao Lin frowned.
If Zheng Dong were a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer, he could not only solve Yanhuang's current predicament but also give countless beast tamers hope to continue their cultivation.
At least it could prove that the path ahead was not broken.
"Do you know Yanhuang's current situation? Those Blazing Fire Drought Demons you just killed came from the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom, and they have multiple Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons!"
Xiao Lin looked at Zheng Dong with some conflict. He hoped Zheng Dong would stay and save Rongcheng Base City.
But he also didn't want Zheng Dong to get involved in this trouble.
He worried that Zheng Dong couldn't handle Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons.
Because Zheng Dong was currently the only one with the potential to break through to become a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer.
As long as Zheng Dong lived, Yanhuang would have hope.
"It's fine, I was just curious to see what Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons look like!" Zheng Dong said with a smile.
Xiao Lin was stunned.
"You scoundrel, this isn't a game. A single Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demon can easily destroy a base city. You should leave quickly, as if you never came back.
Come back and avenge us after you become a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer!"
Seeing Xiao Lin's serious and anxious expression, Zheng Dong smiled.
"It's okay. Although I'm not a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer, I have no problem dealing with one or two Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons."
Xiao Lin stared at Zheng Dong with some doubt, making sure he hadn't misheard, and said:
"Don't underestimate Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons. Even hundreds or thousands of quasi-divine beasts can't kill a single Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demon."
"Don't worry, I've killed dozens, if not a hundred, Divine-tier extraordinary beings," Zheng Dong explained.
Xiao Lin was completely stunned.
He was very familiar with Zheng Dong.
He knew Zheng Dong wouldn't brag.
Could it be that Zheng Dong was telling the truth?
This seemed unlikely!
Even a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer couldn't easily deal with Divine-tier extraordinary beings, right?
Moreover, Zheng Dong himself admitted that he was not a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer.
While Xiao Lin was stunned, Zheng Dong grabbed his shoulder and used spatial teleportation to enter the command hall of Rongcheng Base City.
There were hardly anyone left here.
Those with a little influence had already fled Rongcheng.
Those who remained were, like Xiao Lin, men of spirit with faith.
They had also seen the situation of the front-line battle through satellite footage.
They had thought Rongcheng was finished.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Dong had turned the tide single-handedly.
Immediately, they were ecstatic.
However, they were not familiar with Zheng Dong, even meeting him for the first time. Besides gratitude, there was a trace of fear in their eyes as they looked at Zheng Dong.
Zheng Dong did not greet them and walked straight into a conference room with Xiao Lin.
Closing the door, Zheng Dong began to discuss with Xiao Lin.
Zheng Dong learned more about the Elder Council from Xiao Lin.
After thinking for a while, Zheng Dong said:
"Since the Elder Council has abandoned Rongcheng, we should inform everyone in Rongcheng about this news!"
Xiao Lin frowned again, not understanding what Zheng Dong intended to do.
"Doing so will not only affect unity but also make Rongcheng completely lose confidence in confronting the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom!" Xiao Lin said with a serious expression.
"With me here, the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom is not a problem.
I can protect Rongcheng, but I also need faith power!" Zheng Dong said. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Xiao Lin looked at Zheng Dong in surprise, feeling as if he was getting to know Zheng Dong anew.
Zheng Dong was no longer the newcomer king of Rongcheng from before.
He had his own thoughts and his own goals.
This made Xiao Lin somewhat dislike him.
He felt that Zheng Dong was no different from Ming Chuanshuo and Feng Chuanshuo in the Elder Council.
"Why?" Xiao Lin asked with a displeased expression.
"Because we need Mythical-tier Beast Tamers. I can deal with the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom now, but what about the future?
We need to create gods, to create our own guardian gods.
Instead of giving faith power to the Totem Kingdom or wasting it, it's better to give it to me!" Zheng Dong continued.
Xiao Lin's expression stiffened. He had never considered what Zheng Dong had said.
The current situation was changing day by day.
Previously, several totem kingdoms that had been confronting Yanhuang were wiped out in an instant.
Subsequently, even stronger enemies appeared, and Yanhuang fell into crisis.
Although Zheng Dong had saved Rongcheng this time, what about the future?
Yanhuang indeed needed to create gods.
If Zheng Dong became a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer and paved the way for countless beast tamers, more Mythical-tier Beast Tamers would be born in the future.
Thus, Yanhuang would become stronger and stronger, and there would be some hope. Facing an even more brutal environment, it would not be reduced to vassals and slaves.
After a thorough discussion.
Xiao Lin decided to help Zheng Dong.
Therefore, Xiao Lin not only had his subordinates release the battle footage from the battlefield that day but also released the news that Rongcheng Base City had been abandoned.
Support would never come!
The future could only rely on ourselves.
Xiao Lin said this himself in front of the camera.
Immediately, the entire Rongcheng was in an uproar.
Many fell into despair.
Chaos erupted as a result.
Many people wanted to completely let go before the Blazing Fire Drought Demons attacked, causing rampant destruction.
Many also wanted to flee Rongcheng to seek refuge in a surrounding totem kingdom.
The internet was also in an uproar.
"I said long ago that Rongcheng would be abandoned sooner or later, but no one believed me. Think about the Divine Capital, and those destroyed base cities, didn't they also not receive support!"
"It's actually quite good to be a vassal. We are inherently weak. Becoming a Legendary-tier Beast Tamer is our limit. We can't cope with increasingly powerful extraordinary beings."
"Damn it, so many Blazing Fire Drought Demons died. The Drought Demon Totem Kingdom will definitely not let us go. Once Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons arrive, we'll all be burned to ashes!"
"These Blazing Fire Drought Demons deserved to die. Should we wait for them to kill more people?"
"I just think Zheng Dong went too far, leaving us with no room for negotiation with the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom!"
...
There were all sorts of opinions, but Zheng Dong didn't care. He had foreseen this situation.
The more chaotic the situation, the more powerful force was needed to maintain order.
Most of the beast tamers were on the battlefield and had fallen.
In Rongcheng Base City, the maintenance of order was carried out by ordinary security bureau personnel.
They were helpless against even slightly stronger beast tamers.
Xiao Lin had to personally lead people to maintain order.
Unfortunately, it was still not enough.
Just as Rongcheng became increasingly chaotic and everyone was unable to bear it, Zheng Dong made his move.
Zheng Dong summoned Ling'er.
Ling'er released countless seed-like clones, spreading throughout Rongcheng.
These clones, like countless eyes and hands, could quickly ascertain the situation in Rongcheng and control those causing chaos.
Everyone witnessed Zheng Dong's power.
Zheng Dong was not soft-hearted. No matter how many people there were, they were strictly dealt with according to Yanhuang's laws. Those who deserved to be killed were killed, and those who deserved to be exiled were exiled.
He used iron-fisted methods to quickly rectify Rongcheng.
All restless elements were eliminated.
The rest was left to Xiao Lin to handle.
He did not need to participate too much in the governance of Rongcheng, nor did he have the time and energy for it.
He only needed to remain powerful and mysterious to obtain enough faith power.
Xiao Lin, after reorganizing Rongcheng's management team, rebuilt the Beast Taming Army and the Security Bureau, and solemnly announced the decision to no longer obey any orders from the Elder Council.
Subsequently, Ming Chuanshuo, Feng Chuanshuo, and others were also angered.
The Elder Council declared Xiao Lin a traitor to Yanhuang, and anyone who killed him would become a hero of Yanhuang.
They also denied the previous order to abandon Rongcheng, stating that the Elder Council had been mobilizing beast taming legions and various forces to support Rongcheng.
Furthermore, even if Rongcheng was coerced by Xiao Lin and no longer obeyed the Elder Council's orders, the Elder Council would continue to increase various living supplies for the sake of Rongcheng's citizens.
In addition, Ming Chuanshuo and Feng Chuanshuo publicly called on Zheng Dong to go to the Imperial Capital Base City and not be deceived by Xiao Lin.
They hoped that Zheng Dong, as a Yanhuang citizen, would shoulder the responsibility of defending Yanhuang and the Imperial Capital.
This move was clearly more skillful and convincing than Zheng Dong and Xiao Lin's.
After all, there was never a formal document for abandoning Rongcheng.
As for support, it had always been in preparation, but it had never set out.
Of course, neither Zheng Dong nor Xiao Lin believed anything Ming Chuanshuo and Feng Chuanshuo said.
Compared to these manipulative families, only powerful strength could solve problems in the simplest and most direct way.
Zheng Dong had no immediate plans to go to the Imperial Capital Base City. He remained in Rongcheng, waiting for the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom's retaliation.
Ming Chuanshuo, Feng Chuanshuo, and others did not urge Zheng Dong.
They also wanted to see if Zheng Dong had the strength!
In the Imperial Capital Base City, Ming Chuanshuo was eating dessert and looked at Feng Chuanshuo beside him.
"Any news from Rongcheng?"
Feng Chuanshuo shook his head.
"No, after we decided to abandon Rongcheng, our people had already withdrawn. Now that Rongcheng has been purged by Xiao Lin and Zheng Dong, it's difficult to get information from there."
"Do you think this Zheng Dong could really become a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer and resist the Drought Demon Totem Kingdom?" Ming Chuanshuo asked, his eyes darting around.
"Whether it's possible, don't you know in your heart? He's at most a figure like Emperor Qin or Emperor Yan. Becoming a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer is completely impossible," Feng Chuanshuo said dismissively.
Ming Chuanshuo also smiled slightly.
"Regardless, his strength is quite good. If we can win him over, it would be good for us.
My granddaughter is a few years younger than him, and she's quite a good match."
"Hahaha, I'm afraid he won't give you face!" Feng Chuanshuo laughed.
Just then, Ming Chuanshuo's confidant rushed in anxiously.
They had detected through satellite monitoring that a major battle had occurred near Rongcheng, involving Divine-tier extraordinary beings.
Ming Chuanshuo and Feng Chuanshuo immediately got up and followed him to check.
Upon arriving at the combat command center, the battle footage was being broadcast on the large screen.
Zheng Dong was seen fighting five Divine-tier Blazing Fire Drought Demons alone.
One of the Blazing Fire Drought Demons was the strongest, having already formed a divine body and would soon grow into a mid-level god.
Seeing this, Ming Chuanshuo and Feng Chuanshuo gasped.
Zheng Dong was much stronger than they had anticipated.
Could he really have become a Mythical-tier Beast Tamer?
