Ye Chen led his people into a fierce charge, and clearly, there was no need for second thoughts—the goal was to head straight to the Hell Tower and affix the Bagua Secret Talisman.
His arrival indeed swiftly joined forces with Fang Ziren, breaking through the obstructions set by Elder Xi Feng, and they started to approach the Hell Tower. However, the deeper they went, the deeper they fell into the trap.
A signal.
Suddenly, like rats emerging from underground, shadows darted out one after another from the dilapidated houses.
These were all hefty creatures, obviously not from the Dragon Slaying Clan—certainly released from inside the Hell Tower.
Ye Chen made a judgment. It was definitely a trap. He called out to Fang Ziren, urging, "Fang Ziren, we have to retreat quickly. This is a trap."
