The Ruler Of All - 71 City Of Pride

“Noo! Mother No! Don’t kill her! Please I beg you please! I will do anything you ask but please let my mother go..” A girls voice reached Zhu Long, it seemed to be cries of sorrow,

“This..” Zhu Long stopped following Zhu Long and looked towards the direction of the voice, a hint of sorrow in his eyes. Ku Wang stopped walking and looked towards Zhu Long, ‘Maybe this man isn’t as cold as he looks to be..’ Ku Wang had tried to ignore all the voices that came from the demon army camp but couldn’t ignore the girls voice. He also felt that he should go and save the girl. “Brother Lin, I know what you are feeling but you should remember your word. Going to save that girl as well as the other prisoners would do nothing but harm us, we don’t exactly know what the demons are doing with them but if it is something very important for the demons, which I think it is then the both of us would be targeted by the entire demonic army, which we don’t have the power to deal with at all. Hell, I bet that killing that captain would take all out efforts, and by the time we kill the captain, the soldiers would escape or call for reinforcements. So I repeat myself, I hope brother Lin doesn’t do anything on his own..” Ku Wang said sternly, he had also felt like saving that girl but he knew that it would only bring harm to everyone. He had to make his heart cold and ignore the cries and continue on forward. Zhu Long nodded, “I know the consequences of being involved, It’s just… Leave it, brother Ku, let’s continue, I don’t want to hear any more cries…” Ku Wang nodded and continued on his way, Zhu Long sighed and started to follow Ku Wang. Lucky for the two of them, they had reached far enough to not hear any more cries.

After walking a few more minutes, Ku Wang started to increase his pace, after some more moment’s he was running. It looked like both of them were in the clear now, far away from the demon army camp. “Brother Lin, A few more minutes of running then we will start to see the city, what the paintings I’ve seen of it, The entire city looks magnificent even from far away.” Ku Wang said with excitement. Zhu Long smiled when he saw Ku Wang’s enthusiasm. After another few minutes of running, Zhi Long finally saw a huge city, it looked like it was shining. The city has a huge wall around it, which seemed to protect from anyone sneaking in or trying to sneak out of the city. Zhu Long could also see an enormous gate at the front side of the walls, which seemed to be the entrance. “So, This is the City of Pride.” Zhu Long said as he looked towards the City. Ku Wang nodded as he also stared towards the city in awe, “It looks even more amazing that what was portrayed in the drawings. Heck, It looks a million times better!” Ku Wang was surprised, he saw the paintings and didn’t expect the city to be this amazing, the actual city looked many times better than all the paintings he had seen till now. He felt very excited and rushed towards the city, Zhu Long smiled once again and followed closely.

Prologue

A group of old friends gather out and make a group of six members as they plan to excavate, find and study about the ancient places and earn money from selling the antiques they dig up from the excavation sites for their living.

They have been going through many excavation sites and studying about the past of the sites and sold most of the antiques whereas some of them were kept in their home as a show piece or a token for the remembrance of the place.

But as they are excavating through a very old ruin, there is something waiting for them, something sinister.
