Tangyu and his group of six quickly arrived at the royal city of the Liang Kingdom. The royal city of the Liang Kingdom was extremely magnificent and imposing, much larger than Yanshan City of the Yanshan Sect, perhaps a hundred times larger. From a distance, the city wall, stretching hundreds of miles, looked like an ancient giant dragon lying there. The wall was over a hundred feet high, towering and imposing.

The six flew over the city gate, and the crowd coming in and out continued to flow endlessly. The arrival of Tangyu's group instantly quieted the area, with everyone involuntarily looking up at the sky. The guards at the city gate, upon seeing Tangyu and his group, turned pale, and the City Guard Captain immediately shouted, "Quickly blow the horn, send the signal, they are here, hurry!"

Clearly, these City Guards had received orders to immediately send a signal upon discovering Tangyu's arrival.

The people entering and exiting the city, overwhelmed by Tangyu's immense aura, were all shocked and on the verge of kneeling in worship.

Tangyu glanced around, and a voice as loud as thunder came from his mouth: "Those who are not involved, leave quickly. This city gate is about to be destroyed."

Hearing Tangyu's words, everyone was stunned, some were scared silly. What did he mean? Someone was going to destroy the city gate? Destroying the city gate, isn't that a provocation against the Liang Kingdom? Isn't that essentially declaring war against the Liang Kingdom? The city gate represents the Liang Kingdom's gate, and further symbolizes the Liang Kingdom's face and dignity, which no one is allowed to violate. Anyone who dares, the Liang Kingdom will naturally not let them off.

So, hearing Tangyu's words, it frightened everyone, leaving them dumbfounded, not understanding what was happening. How did this suddenly occur?

Throughout the thousands of years of the Liang Kingdom's existence, has anyone dared to speak such words in front of the Liang Kingdom's city gates?

Seeing that these people had no reaction, Tangyu frowned and shouted again, "Leave quickly, I don't want to kill the innocent. If you don't leave now, you are courting death."

Upon hearing this, the crowd began to panic, burst into screams, and scattered like birds and beasts, quickly evacuating from the area and standing at a distance. However, these people did not leave easily, instead choosing to see what exactly was happening, what major event was about to unfold.

The squad of City Guards stood there with fear-stricken faces, looking at Tangyu and his group with terror. Although they were the City Guard, they were merely cultivators of the Mystical Law Realm, weak and pitiful. However, their duty was to guard the city gate, so they naturally did not dare to leave without orders. Standing there, each one looked as if they had seen a cat, with their whole body trembling, unable even to stand steadily.

Tangyu glanced at the City Guards and said, "You should leave here as well, don't make unnecessary sacrifices. The Liang Kingdom will soon cease to exist. If you pledge loyalty and seek death now, it will be in vain. I will say it again, I don't want to kill the innocent, but if you insist on courting death, I don't mind killing you. If you don't want to die, move aside quickly."

Sun Wukong grinned and said, "Tangyu, why bother with so much talking? Just kill them."

The City Guards exchanged helpless glances, at a loss for what to do, having never encountered such a situation before, unsure of what decision to make. Finally, one of the City Guards couldn't hold back, dropped his weapon, and fled. With someone taking the lead, the City Guards quickly dispersed like birds and beasts, leaving only the City Guard Captain standing there. Gritting his teeth, he said, "My duty is to guard the city gate, no matter what happens to the Liang Kingdom, I will not easily let you destroy the city gate. If you want to destroy the city gate, then step over my dead body."

Tangyu shook his head, "A somewhat spirited fellow, but you can't stop us." With a wave of his hand, Tangyu sent out a force that wrapped the City Guard Captain and flung him into the distance. Tangyu did not kill this City Guard Captain.

Sun Wukong said, "Tangyu, you really are quite merciful. Heh, I'm best at causing destruction. Leave this city gate to me." With that, Sun Wukong lifted the Jingu Bang and struck it towards the city gate. The Jingu Bang in his hand grew, quickly transforming into a giant pillar, and then smashed heavily onto the city gate.

Rumble —

Sun Wukong's fierce attack, unsurprisingly, met with no resistance. With the strike, a hundred-foot high city gate was shattered by the blow, sending rubble flying and creating a massive hole. The entire city gate was completely destroyed, even leaving a deep trench in the ground. The power of this strike was astonishing, leaving everyone around dumbfounded.

Having destroyed the city gate, Sun Wukong grinned again, lifted the Jingu Bang, and walked back, saying, "Tangyu, is there anything else that needs destroying? Should I smash all the city walls here, and all those buildings too? Breaking things feels really satisfying!"

Tangyu replied, "No more destruction, destroying enough to send a signal is sufficient. Once these are broken, we will have to rebuild them, which is pointless and creates trouble for ourselves. Let's go, breaking a city gate is enough of a signal to the Liang Kingdom. Now let's head straight to the Imperial Palace."

"Hehe, alright then, let's follow your plan, storm the Imperial Palace. Haha, fighting is what I love the most," Sun Wukong nodded.

The group of six also headed towards the Imperial Palace, flying directly through the sky. Their grand movement startled quite a few people, causing a commotion in the Royal City. The blaring horn resounded through the long sky, waking up the entire Royal City. Such a horn was only blown in times of great danger, so when the people of the Royal City heard it, each one rushed out of their houses, wanting to see what was happening.

The entire Royal City was in an uproar, buzzing with activity.

The news spread through the Royal City like a flood; someone was actually planning to attack the Liang Kingdom, an event shocking enough to astound everyone. After receiving the news, crowds swarmed towards the direction of the Imperial Palace. If the Liang Kingdom were to fall, it would be closely related to them; no one could guarantee it wouldn't affect them, or whether it would lead to major actions in the Royal City. This understandably left many people in panic.

As Tangyu and his companions passed by, their presence stirred a commotion below.

Over at the Imperial Palace, Liang King had received the news early on, and he had his arrangements in place long before, just waiting for Tangyu and his group to come knocking. Liang King flew to the peak of the highest structure in the Imperial Palace, accompanied by two Supreme Elders. The three Zifu Realm masters asserted their presence there. Liang King gazed far into the distance, his eyes quickly landing on Tangyu and his party of six. Seeing these six, Liang King coldly sneered.

"Hmph, just as I expected, merely two Zifu Realms, and Sun Wukong indeed came. And there's that guy, actually a ghost, who also broke through to the Zifu Realm. Last time, the old ghost was the one who ruined my plans. Hmph, I really don't know why this old ghost would follow Tangyu. But it doesn't matter, they're all going to die anyway." Liang King gave a cold smile, everything seemingly within his control, all as he had anticipated.

Liang King's gaze scanned and landed on Yan Nantian: "Hmm, so this Yanshan Tian is actually at the Golden Core Realm Ninth Layer? How curious. From what I know, he should have only been at the Golden Core Realm Sixth Layer. Why is he at the Golden Core Realm Ninth Layer now? Could it be he was hiding his strength all along? There's also a Golden Core Realm Seventh Level and a Golden Core Realm Third Layer; those two can be ignored. Among the six, only four have true combat strength."

"The strongest are Sun Wukong and Tangyu, their strength decent with some merit. But to think they can challenge my Liang Kingdom with just this, truly a fool's dream. Hmph, if they dare come, I won't hold back either."

Liang King waved his hand, and figures emerged from all directions, quickly forming a large formation, two layers of formations.

The first formation consisted of over three hundred cultivators from the Golden Core Realm First Layer to Sixth Layer, forming a gigantic formation. The Second Layer was then composed of nearly a hundred cultivators above the Golden Core Realm Sixth Layer. With these two layers of formations here, they were akin to impregnable walls, making breaching them not an easy task. Also, many hidden strategies were fully arranged. This place, at this time, was absolutely fortified, it's no exaggeration to say this.

Tangyu and his companions, from afar, could see Liang King's arrangements, and Tangyu smirked, "As expected, Liang King had his setup ready, just waiting for us to walk right into the trap. Hmph, even if it's a mountain of daggers or a sea of flames, even if it's walls of iron, we will break and shatter them; nothing shall stop our advance."

"Hehe, only three Zifu Realms, with this strength, they think to stop us, I alone am enough," Sun Wukong said.

Tangyu smirked slightly, "Don't be too careless, Monkey King. The foundation of the Liang Kingdom surely goes beyond this; this will definitely be a major battle, we must not let our guard down. Otherwise, if we stumble in a minor setback, that would be troublesome. This battle must not only be fought advantageously but won beautifully and without losses to be a true victory."

"This is only the overt arrangement; I believe there are more deployments hidden. Although we see only three Zifu Realms here, those formations composed of Golden Core Realm cultivators shouldn't be underestimated, consisting of hundreds, and with the formation's power, they can easily slaughter Golden Core Realm practitioners. Follow my command during the fight later, no individual actions, or else if you fall into their trap, it will not be good."

Sun Wukong nodded, willing to heed Tangyu's advice.

The others, centering around Tangyu, naturally understood the reason for this.

Yan Nantian said, "Seeing Liang King's confident demeanor, it looks like he's been well-prepared and is fully confident. Tangyu, we have to be extra careful, this Liang King is also unfathomable and quite cunning. Surely, he has some powerful techniques hidden."

Tangyu nodded, "Understood, Master. Later, you, Qi Xingtian, and Yaomei stay behind and act accordingly. Unless there's a favorable opportunity, don't act rashly; leave the first battle to us."
