Peerless War God

All the cultivators in the city were on full alert, guarding against anything that might happen. The construction of the defensive formation was getting more and more intense.    

At this moment, a piece of news that shook the entire Baishi City spread out. The City Lord's Mansion had actually issued a recruitment order.    

"Immortal Tribulation Realm cultivators can be recruited as guests of Baishi City. The reward is generous. Those who are interested can discuss it after the announcement."    

At the various gates of Baishi City, a golden recruitment order was stuck on the wall. Several guards were guarding it, and hundreds of cultivators were surrounding it. They were all shocked.    

"This is a recruitment order? It's really a big deal." Some cultivators began to discuss.    

"Recruiting Immortal Tribulation Realm cultivators as guests of Baishi City. The treatment is generous. It's really enviable. If I also have the Immortal Tribulation Realm, I will definitely give it a try."    

"What do you know? Although the reward is good, you have to be alive to take it. You should also know the current situation of Baishi City. Once the Endless Sea war affects us, we can't be spared. If you come to be a guest of Baishi City at this time, aren't you just courting death? I'm afraid it's not that easy."    

A male cultivator retorted, his tone was quite pessimistic.    

"Although that's the case, the old saying is right.富贵 comes from danger. Nothing is perfect. There has to be a gambling component."    

"That's right. In order to stabilize the people in the city, Lord Chen Xiao did not hesitate to pay a huge price. All the cultivators were given double the treatment. What kind of boldness is this? This Recruitment Decree is indeed a bit interesting."    

Another cultivator said.    

For a moment, all sorts of voices rose up and appeared in every corner of the White Stone City. There was even a sense of panic.    

However, under Chen Xiao's pressure, there were Immortal Realm experts in charge. Overall, it was still quite stable and no trouble was caused.    

However, this Recruitment Decree did not have any effect.    

At this moment, on a mountain outside the White Stone City, one could easily overlook the entire White Stone City from a high vantage point. The busy cultivators were building a larger defensive array formation day and night.    

With Chen Xiao's eyes, this array formation was indeed extraordinary. Even if an Immortal Realm expert came here, they would not be able to break through it easily.    

However, this array formation was more of a defensive one. Its offensive ability was not enough. Chen Xiao frowned and began to think.    

"Forget it. Now that the situation is so dangerous, I can't care about much. I should first defend. As for the other things, I can slowly think about it. There is no hurry. As for this Recruitment Decree..."    

Chen Xiao held his chin and began to think.    

It had been more than half a day since the Recruitment Decree was announced. It was completely different from his previous prediction. There was actually no Tribulation Transcender who came to apply for the position. This was really a bit out of his expectations.    

However, this situation could be considered as unexpected and reasonable.    

"I thought that at least one or two Tribulation Transcenders would be recruited. This way, the pressure on Yang Zhen and Ye Zhen would be much smaller. I didn't expect that there was not even one."    

Chen Xiao shook his head and sighed. He was a little unwilling in his heart. He had made a mistake.    

As the old saying went, there would be courageous people under great rewards. The conditions he offered were not bad, but they didn't seem to be very attractive, and he was completely indifferent.    

With a thought, he could easily detect that there were more than ten Tribulation Transcenders in White Stone City. There was actually no one who was moving.    

It seemed that these Tribulation Transcenders had chosen the latter between money and life. In this chaotic situation, saving their lives was the top priority.    

This idea was naturally correct, but unfortunately, time was short.    

Chen Xiao stood in the air and looked up at the sky. Under the white clouds, he saw an unremarkable black dot slowly moving in the sky. That was the Immortal King's Castle, the first line of battle between the Human Race and the Demon Race.    

"Do you really think that you can be safe just because you bury your head in the ground? What a joke."    

"Forget it, you still have to rely on yourself to earn your life."    

Chen Xiao's faint voice drifted in the wind, extremely cold. In the next moment, he appeared at the city gate of White Stone City in his armor.    

His sudden appearance caused a huge uproar, and cries of alarm could be heard.    

"Who is this person? What a fast movement technique. I can't even see how he appeared."    

"It's a Tribulation Transcender. It's the aura of a Tribulation Transcender. I recognize him."    

"Tribulation Transcender? Could it be that this person is here to remove the Proclamation of Recruitment?"    

For a moment, countless people surrounded him and looked at Chen Xiao with incomparable curiosity. However, he was only a puppet at the moment. He wore a mask, so no one could see his true appearance.    

Only the aura of a Tribulation Transcender was real.    

When the guards saw this, they revealed excited expressions and went forward to ask, "May I know who you are?"    

"I am Mo Hun. I'm here to remove the Proclamation."    

Chen Xiao first introduced himself, then with a wave of his right hand, he took the Proclamation of Recruitment from his hand. With a move of his body, he headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion and disappeared from everyone's sight.    

"What? The Proclamation of Recruitment has been removed by someone. This is great."    

"What's the name of that Tribulation Transcender? Mo Hun? This name is so strange. It can't be fake, right?"    

"What do you know? This is called keeping a low profile. In the Divine Realm, who would dare to publicize their own name? Isn't it just asking for a beating?"    

"True."    

Following Mo Hun's sudden appearance, he became the topic of discussion for all the good people in Baishi City. He quickly became a celebrity, and almost everyone in the city knew that a Tribulation Transcender called Mo Hun had removed the Proclamation of Recruitment and became a guest elder of Baishi City.    

This matter also spread throughout the surrounding areas of Baishi City.    

Several days later, in the main hall of Baishi City’s City Lord Manor, Yang Zhen and Ye Zhen gathered all the cultivators and factions within the city for a meeting.    

Ye Xu and Ye Hao were also among them, standing in the crowd and looking very inconspicuous.    

“Why are there five seats? There’s actually an extra one.” Ye Xu curiously looked at the five golden seats that were arranged in a row above the main hall and asked.    

It wasn’t just him. Many cultivators in the main hall had also noticed this and were discussing in a low voice.    

Seeing this scene, Ye Hao seemed to be lost in thought as he nodded and said, “Looks like the rumors from a few days ago were true. The recruitment order that was issued was removed by a Tribulation Transcender expert called Mo Hun. I wonder who this person is?”    

“Mo Hun? This name is really strange. It should be a pseudonym. Many cultivators deliberately hide their true names to appear to be concealing themselves. Heh.”    

Ye Xu said indifferently.    

He didn’t feel much towards Mo Hun. He only felt that this kind of person was most likely very influential and would often change his mind according to the wind. He would only stay behind to become a guest elder of Baishi City for the sake of some benefits.    

This kind of person was probably not trustworthy at crucial times. Only people like them were the true mainstays.    

The only problem was that there were too few of them, and their strength wasn’t considered very strong.    

Ye Hao just smiled without denying it. He had been secretly inquiring about Mo Hun for the past few days, but he hadn’t found anything. It was really strange.
