Villain Cultivator (Web Novel)
Chapter 171: Qiang Clan Ma Clan and Liu Clan
Siren City was once a territory of a mermaid race, who lived in the Blood Sea. They founded this city to trade with other demon races and acquire resources.
After the cultivator-demon war, this city fell to the hands of human cultivators. All mermaids retreated back into the Blood Sea and never returned.
When the Liu Clan solidified their power and established the Liu Dynasty, Dong Zhongying, the descendant of a deceased general, was given the Siren City as a reward for his father ’s service in the war.
Unlike his father, Dong Zhongying was a cruel lord. He turned against fellow humans and enslaved local cultivators, who migrated into his land. With the help of his father ’s secretary-general, Hua Xiong, he rose to power and became a dominant clan. With more manpower and hired mercenaries, the emperor enlisted him to the court.
Everything was in Dong Zhongying ’s palms – Power, money, women, and authority. Yet, his ambition had no limit. He aimed to dethrone the emperor by gathering allies in the court.
However, a new star suddenly appeared to thwart his plan.
Liu Bian, the crown prince, suddenly emerged and seized control of the emperor ’s royal army. With only 8 years of age, his talent in arrays and military tactics surpassed old generals, which earned the trust of many ministers.
Liu Bian became the political nemesis of Dong Zhongying. Thus, the latter couldn ’t sit back in this forsaken city for too long. He moved his men and subordinates to the Red Sun City to secure his position in the court before this upstarted prince could devour everything. He also used everything in his arsenal to sabotage the crown prince, including the previous corpse commission.
Then, the deed came to Jia Wenhe ’s hands.
.
Jia Wenhe, Ju Shoufen, Jia Shan, Cao Mao, and everyone gazed at this desolate city in solemn. Rather than calling it a city, it should be called a ruin.
Most structures were either burned or deconstructed. Only unusable bricks, woods, and broken furniture remained. Aside from the intact stone roads, no intact building was in sight.
”They don ’t even construct a stone wall for this city, ” Cao Mao complained as he gazed toward the west, where he heard the roaring sound of sea waves and wind. ”Is this place safe? It was once a mermaid city, right? Won ’t those creatures come back to take this city? ”
Jia Shan shrugged, ”They won ’t. There ’s nothing to gain here other than their pride. I doubt they even have one since the mermaids never fought back in the last war. They retreated at the sight of invaders. ”
Ju Shoufen shook her head, ”But we shouldn ’t let down our guard. At least, we should set a defensive array to protect this place. ”
