Yunjing City, atop the towering city tower.
The commander of the Eighteenth Legion, Huo Changtian, and vice commander Zhou Ziwen, had long been waiting for Ding Zhonghe's triumphant return.
However...
When they saw Ding Zhonghe about to return to Yunjing City, they realized he did not immediately enter the city but instead warned them to activate the City Protection Array promptly.
Relying on the tacit understanding built from years of collaboration among the three.
The two hesitated hardly at all and immediately activated the City Protection Array.
As the formation was being activated.
Xiao Yi appeared, and Ding Zhonghe, in order to delay Xiao Yi to prevent him from rushing into the city before the City Protection Array could be activated, stood blocking Xiao Yi with a Fangtian Halberd.
But the next moment...
He merely brushed past Xiao Yi.
The mighty Ninth Layer Saint King Realm master Ding Zhonghe was decapitated.
Falling from the sky toward the ground.
