Chapter 185 Public Anger Unquenched

It's important to understand that Noguchi Ridge is not just an ordinary territory for Zhuxian; it is the cornerstone that sustains everything in Zhuxian!

If he lost Noguchi Ridge, even if he possessed extraordinary strength at the initial stage of the sixth level, his status and power would be far less than what he has now.

You should know that Noguchi Ridge is not only Zhu Guo's base camp, but also one of the three major territories of Mangyuan!

Noguchi Ridge did not become one of the three major powers in Mangyuan because of Zhuxian, but rather Zhuxian became one of the three lords because of Noguchi Ridge!

The three main forces of Noguchi Pass are the only ones that remain unchanged; Zhu Xian is just a lord who comes and goes!

It was precisely because of this logic that Zhu Xian could no longer sit still after learning about the schemes of the person behind the scenes.

Because if he faces unanimous opposition from Noguchi Rei, no matter how capable he is, he will be ousted from power.

Although a single wild beast in the wilderness may be weak, billions of wild beasts in the wilderness are enough to change the world.

Even if Zhu Xian had the power to annihilate all the wild beasts, he wouldn't dare to do so, because the relationship between the three major forces was intricate; although they were opposed to each other, they were also interdependent.

More importantly, this completely shattered the balance of power among the three major forces.

This is absolutely unacceptable to the other two lords. With Zhu Xian's current strength, he is far from being able to withstand the wrath of the other two lords!

Because if he did that, everything he had put in before would be for nothing, which was something he absolutely could not tolerate or accept!

It should be understood that the reason why the three lords were able to become overlords in the vast wilderness was not solely due to their terrifying strength.

The more crucial factor is that behind each of them is a large ethnic group.

Although the Thunderscale Devouring Python is an exception at times, its unique lightning absorption ability is enough to be equivalent to millions of its kind.

It is no exaggeration to say that if they lost the support of their respective ethnic groups, even with unfathomable strength at the initial stage of the sixth level, they would probably only be considered as relatively powerful wild beasts in this vast wilderness.

Its influence, as well as its appeal to other creatures, will decline sharply and linearly, and may even become insignificant.

Whenever Zhu Xian thought about how everything he had now would disappear without a trace, he could no longer hold back!

He first issued a solemn statement with an extremely serious attitude, stating that all the rumors that had been circulating recently were completely unfounded.

Immediately afterwards, he issued a strongly worded ban, explicitly forbidding all wild beasts within Noguchi Ridge from discussing or spreading these rumors.

However, the matter ended there, and there was no further development.

At first, everyone was hopeful that Zhu Xian could provide further clarification and explanation.

After all, many of the rumors are related to the lords, and even more so to the fruit spirits whose children have mysteriously disappeared for many years and whose fates remain unknown.

They all hoped their lord would provide a convincing explanation, but nothing came of it.

Shocking rumors spread like wildfire, and this series of events was closely related to that high-ranking lord!

How could such news not attract widespread attention and cause great concern?

After all, this matter involves the vital interests of everyone!

However, the prestige that Lord Zhu Xian had accumulated over the years was no joke; his powerful and ruthless image had long been deeply ingrained in people's minds.

Therefore, when Zhu Xian personally spoke out and made a statement, the lack of further explanation left everyone very dissatisfied.

However, everyone suppressed their anger and waited patiently for Zhu Xian's further explanation.

However, to everyone's surprise, despite their eager anticipation, no detailed explanation or clarification of the matter was ever received.

This exhausted everyone's last bit of patience, especially those fruit spirits who had lost their loved ones, who finally erupted.

That night, countless wild beasts emerged from their homes and surged into the streets.

They clustered together, like a surging tide, flowing mightily towards the direction of the Zhu Guo Palace.

Before long, the guards responsible for protecting the Zhu Guo Palace noticed the large and aggressive horde of angry wild beasts.

The savage beasts, who were usually docile, obedient, and well-behaved, had completely changed their appearance at this moment.

They all had wide, angry eyes and roared incessantly as they menacingly approached the Vermilion Fruit Palace step by step.

As the procession progressed, more and more wild beasts joined them along the way, making this enraged army grow ever stronger.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the area beneath the walls of the Zhu Guo Palace was already teeming with raging beasts!

Ling Sheng's eyes widened, his face filled with terror, and his body trembled uncontrollably from the immense fear.

His face was as pale as paper, and he was shrouded in fear, for the enraged beast tide was truly terrifying.

After regaining his composure, Ling Sheng, in a trembling voice, repeatedly emphasized to the guards responsible for guarding the city gate: "No matter what, you must not open the city gate!"

After saying this, he scrambled and stumbled like a frightened rabbit towards the depths of the palace, ready to report the terrible situation that had occurred there as soon as possible.

More and more wild beasts surged in like a tide, quickly filling the once vast plaza beneath the walls of the Zhu Guo Palace.

At first, these wild beasts simply gathered together, emitting low, chilling roars. But as their numbers increased, these low roars gradually coalesced into a deafening roar, and the whole scene became extremely chaotic.

Finally, a massive, ferocious beast roared out a chilling cry: "Break down the city gate!"

This slogan was like a spark falling into a powder keg, instantly igniting the long-suppressed anger and impulse in the hearts of all the wild beasts.

In an instant, countless responses resounded through the sky, and numerous wild beasts shouted in unison, expressing their support for the proposal.

After receiving a widespread response, the savage beasts began to move, striding forward with their strong and powerful limbs, aggressively approaching the city gate.

Each step they took caused a slight tremor, as if the earth itself feared the power of these ferocious beasts.

The palace guards on the city wall watched the approaching horde of wild beasts with bated breath, and they could even clearly see the twisted, angry expressions on the faces of each beast.

These savage beasts bared their teeth, exhaling bursts of hot air, their eyes flashing with a fierce light, as if they wanted to tear everything in front of them apart and devour it.

Looking at the dense and hostile horde of wild beasts before them, the guards felt their hearts pounding in their throats. They gripped their weapons tightly, their palms sweating profusely from the tension.

At this moment, the chaotic scene and various radical slogans caused the beasts to completely lose their minds. Some impatient beasts had already begun to use their strong bodies to ram the heavy and solid city gate. Each ramming was accompanied by a dull thud, making the city gate teeter on the verge of collapse.

As the situation grew increasingly critical, the guards on duty were on tenterhooks. If they didn't take effective measures to stop the beast horde's attack, the Zhu Guo Palace would likely fall to these frenzied wild beasts.
