A powerful aura rose from the mansion in the middle of the city, which made the guards tremble. The aura was brimming with pure killing intent.
"The Great Elder is here!" one of the guards cried. "The intruder is going to die today!"
Soon, a figure dressed in the dark flew out of the mansion, flying at the speed that it was almost impossible for a normal person to even catch a glimpse.
At the sight of the Demon Sect Elder, the guards fell back.
The Great Elder was the city's appointed guardian and the pillar of its defense. It was their presence alone that had seen the city through countless battles.
Normally, the Elder never left their residence as the city's aura cannons could handle most threats. Their personal intervention was only required when an enemy was truly formidable.
This intruder, in the eyes of the guards, was certainly one such enemy. A wave of relief washed over the guards as the Demon Sect Elder finally arrived.
