The Indomitable Master of Elixirs Chapter 623 – Besieging The City Chapter 3

623 Besieging The City 3

The rage of the Ping City citizens didn’t dissipate after Ji Fengyan unveiled the truth. Instead, their anger morphed into a limitless loathing.

They hated this Song Yuan, who had played them for fools for so many years. That two-faced evil devil.

After apologizing yet again to Ji Fengyan, the citizens wiped off their decrepit expressions as their eyes filled with renewed hostility. They congregated and turned to leave.

“General, what are they going to do?” The citizen’s actions astounded a soldier. Their furious manner indicated they had no intention of dispersing.

Ji Fengyan narrowed her eyes. “They will find Song Yuan.”

The Wolf Smoke Regiment were stunned. Watching the citizen’s departing profile, they could almost taste the anger and resentment of the people.

The city lord whom they had held in such a high regard for so many years has turned out to be a vicious killer.

How could they not be filled with hate at a time like this?

“Prepare yourselves. We are following them,” said Ji Fengyan suddenly.

The people of Ping City now all felt like tearing Song Yuan apart. But they may not get what they wished for. Song Yuan still held an entire army of guards. Further, his collusion with the demons proved that there must be several demons within Ping City.

This bunch of unarmed citizens seeking justice from Song Yuan was akin to attacking a rock with eggs.

The Wolf Smoke Regiment soldiers also recognized this point. They hastily bandaged their wounds and followed Ji Fengyan.

A dark cloud had descended upon Ping City. Ghosts of the wrongful dead had popped up in all corners of the city. Song Yuan’s benevolent facade had been dispelled and news of his ugliness and evil deeds had spread like wildfire to the ears of every citizen.

Everyone from all corners of the city had gathered outside the city lord’s residence. Filled with loathing, the people realized what was meant by hating someone to the bone.

The fact that demons had caused the deaths may not have made them so angry—what truly incited their rage was Song Yuan’s double-crossing… he had betrayed their trust of so many years. He had treated them like a joke and fooled them for two decades.

All this while they had been feeling gratitude for Song Yuan’s “kindness,” not knowing that he was delivering their loved one’s right into the demons’ clutches.

Regret and fury swirled round in everyone’s minds. They desperately wished to skin Song Yuan alive.

“Song Yuan, come out now!” The citizens had gathered and were cursing at the main gates of the city lord’s residence.

The gates of the city lord’s residence remained tightly locked. The usual guard stationed outside the door was also nowhere to be seen.

Ji Fengyan hurried over with the Wolf Smoke Regiment in tow. She frowned at the locked gate and empty guard post. Ji Fengyan then surveyed the surroundings and scanned every inch of the city walls.

The regular guards patrolling upon the city walls had also disappeared. In addition, not even a single guard could be seen on the streets.

Everything…

It was all extremely bizarre.

However, the Ping City citizens failed to recognize that. They stood outside the main gates of the city lord’s residence, hollering and venting out all their hatred and fury.

After a short while, just as the people could barely control themselves any longer and wanted to barge in, the gates of the city lord’s residence finally cracked open.
