Monarch of Timechapter 305: a miserable situation

A stifling feeling appeared in Liu Mei's heart when she saw the medium-sized city in the distance.

This was the place where she was born, and yet it was also the place where she had to run away from as well.

As the city in front of her was slowly being enlarged in her eyes as the black panther approached closer and closer to it, the feeling inside Shun Long's heart was becoming even more tangible.

It was like someone had hit his heart with a hammer, making him feel pain from the powerful impact.

Less than 2 minutes later, the black panther flapped its silver wings as it hovered in the sky above the 'Floating cloud city'.

Although Shun Long was anxious to return back, he still stopped for a moment, and looking at Liu Mei he asked

''Mei'er, do you want to go and see your mother first?''

Shun Long didn't have a single doubt, that with Liu Mei's current cultivation at the middle of rank 4 of the Spirit realm, her undead army could completely flatten the whole 'Floating Cloud city'.

No, even without her undead army, the only one who would be able to fight against her head-on, would be the 'Floating Cloud sect's' sect master, Liu Mei's father, Liu Jian.

After thinking seriously for a moment, Liu Mei shook her head in the end.

Although seeing her mother as early as possible was important, she knew that the chances of her mother's life being in danger while she was still inside the 'Floating Cloud city' were practically zero.

However, the situation of Shun Long's parents was a completely different story.

Nodding his head, a warm feeling filled Shun Long's heart, and without another word, the 'SIlver-winged panther king' continued to fly forward, without waiting for Liu Jian and the other Elders of the 'Floating Cloud sect' to come and welcome them.

The barrier that separated the 'Cultivation world' from the 'Mortal world' soon appeared in Shun Long's eyes, before the 'Silver-winged panther king' effortlessly slashed it open with its silver wings and passed through it.

The thin qi from the 'Mortal world' gave Shun Long a nostalgic feeling... that of a person who had returned home after a long time.

After lowering his gaze to stare at the sea below him, Shun Long locked his eyes on a certain island, before he had the black panther fly towards it at full speed.

The panther descended from the sky like a silver-colored meteor, as it tore through the clouds and appeared on that island in less than a minute.

One after another, Shun Long saw the mortal kingdoms around him flash through his eyes, while the feeling of anxiousness in his heart deepened with every passing second.

A few moments later, Shun Long had already arrived at the outskirts of the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', when a shocking scene appeared in his eyes.

In the cities surrounding the imperial city of the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', the roads, the houses of people, everything, was bathed with blood.

Soldiers wearing bronze armor seemed to have taken over the cities around the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', pillaging everything in sight.

Shun Long could see kids crying, while the headless corpses of men and women were lying on the streets.

''How could this happen?''

Shun Long's feeling were getting agitated with every passing moment, and without stopping, the 'Silver-winged panther king' flew like a blur, and soon it arrived in the 'Blue Forest city'.

The sight that greeted Shun Long's and Liu Mei's however, was that of utter devastation!

The 10m(33ft) tall walls were more than halfway destroyed, while the corpses of countless soldiers that were wearing the insignia of the 'Blue Forest city's' army, as well as the city lord's personal army were lying on the fields outside the city.

However, almost no cries could be heard from the city, as if everything had fallen dead silent.

Shun Long's gaze quickly fell on a single head without a body, that was now hanging outside the 'Blue Forest city's' gates.

Shun Long felt shock filling his heart, when he recognized the man that was hanged outside the city.

This was the 'Blue Forest city's' city lord, Zhen Wang!

Although Shun Long's family didn't have an extremely good relationship with this man, Shun Long had already heard from Shun An how the city lord had tried to curry favor with his father, once Shun Fang became a Duke of the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom'!

Even if Shun Fang didn't like this man, there was no way that he would allow him to get hanged outside the city, unless something really terrible had happened.

On top of the 'Blue Forest city's' city walls, Shun Long saw the bronze-armored guards that he had seen before in cities that he had passed through earlier, and an inexplicable chill filled his heart.

''Has the city really fallen?''

Liu Mei seemed to have also understood what had happened to the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', and quickly fell silent.

Indeed, after seeing the blood that had dyed the soil red, the countless corpses with the insignia of a 'Blue Forest' in their armor as well as the bronze-armored people who had occupied the city walls, a single word appeared in her mind

''War!''

Of course, if Liu Mei could understand this, how could Shun Long not see what was going on.

Deep in his heart however, he refused to accept this.

After all, Shun Fang was already a Heaven grade expert, and in the kingdoms that were in direct proximity to the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', there weren't any Heaven grade experts aside from him.

Even if a new one had appeared, there is no way for them to destroy the 'Blue Forest city' like this.

Besides, Shun Long had been gone for less than a year, so how could a war really erupt in such a small amount of time?

What was the trigger behind it?

As these questions flashed through Shun Long's mind, he got off the 'Silver-winged panther king' and shot towards the 'Blue Forest city', with Liu Mei and the black panther following behind him.
