Chapter 1228: The Sword Comes!

Elder Tianjun led the remaining survivors away, while the heavily injured Mr. Long Jiu stayed behind to fend off the pursuers from the Taoist Sect of the Seven Seas.

Long Zhixin and several members of the Long Family were in tears, wishing they could stay with Mr. Long Jiu and share life and death together.

The others remained silent, their faces filled with sorrow; Mr. Long Jiu, already grievously wounded, was clearly prepared to die in his efforts to halt the advance of the Taoist Sect.

Shortly thereafter, Elder Tianjun and his group met up with the reinforcements from Tang Country, and only at that moment did they truly breathe a sigh of relief.

And so, the night finally passed.

The events that transpired at Flat Sea City shocked the entirety of the Nine Countries; no one had anticipated that the people from the Seven Seas would mount a surprise attack at this time and capture a major coastal city so swiftly.
