The background of the Left President of the Skeleton Society turned out to be Commander Montor?
For a moment, many citizens found it hard to believe, their expressions filled with shock.
After all, one side is one of the top ten dark forces in Southern Origin City, while the other is the leader under the city lord's mansion, protecting countless citizens within the city. There shouldn't be any connection between the two sides at all.
In the crowd, some top powerhouses looked at the astonished citizens with a calm expression.
What a surprise!
Isn't it normal for the Left President to have a protective backer?
Especially for an underground force like the Skeleton Society; without support or background, how could they survive in Southern Origin City, where powerful figures abound? They would have long been devoured by other top forces.
The so-called top ten dark forces are merely the night pots held by some of the most powerful forces in Southern Origin City.
Let alone in a place like Southern Origin City, even in some mortal realms, a dark force without backing cannot survive.
In the void.
Qin Chen coldly glanced at the other mechanical fortresses, continuing indifferently, “Over the years, the numerous gains obtained by the Left President have submitted more than half to Commander Montor. That's fine, but the key point is that for many years, the Left President has secretly plundered many innocent citizens of Southern Origin City for Commander Montor.”
“The number is enormous, amounting to no less than a hundred million over countless eras. After these citizens went missing, they have not been seen since, their fate unknown, and they are likely offered as sacrifices to the forces behind the Left President for practicing demonic arts, or even ruthlessly abused and enjoyed.”
Qin Chen's gaze was cold: “Now, since Montor is a general under the city lord's mansion, does that mean that all the citizens enslaved and plundered by the Left President over the years have been enjoyed by the city lord's mansion?”
“Does your city lord's mansion occupy Southern Origin City just to engage in such activities? The so-called neutral forces, are they merely a resource pool for plundering ordinary cultivators?”
Boom!
As soon as he spoke, it was earth-shattering.
Qin Chen's words spread rapidly like thunder across the vast expanse of Southern Origin City, instantly resembling a giant stone thrown into the water, causing massive ripples.
Countless citizens looked on in shock and anger, gazing at Qin Chen, Montor, and the leader of Wanfang Ling with disbelief.
What is a dark force? Naturally, it is involved in some unspeakable activities, assassination, plunder, and kidnapping—everything is included.
In recent years, there have also been powerful figures missing in Southern Origin City, or certain forces and small families being completely exterminated or plundered, which is quite normal. After all, Southern Origin City covers an immense area with countless living beings.
The Skeleton Society relied on such means to rise step by step, stepping on the corpses of others to become one of the top ten dark forces.
Everyone could accept that.
But if the actions of the Skeleton Society were controlled by the city lord's mansion in the background, it would inevitably send chills down people's spines.
As the city lord's mansion governs the entire Southern Origin City, it at least needs to be fair and just, appearing righteous in name. But if they have always viewed the cultivators in the city as ants in secret, engaging in slaughter, plunder, and robbery, then who would dare to survive, reproduce, and thrive here in the future?
Once any force grows strong, wouldn't they all become the fish on the chopping board of the city lord's mansion?
“Is what Qin Chen said true?”
“The Left President is actually being supported secretly by the city lord's mansion?”
“What about the other nine dark forces?”
People's expressions changed in terror, their bodies trembling.
“The reason the top ten dark forces in Southern Origin City have such a bad reputation is that over the years, the forces and families that have died at their hands, and those that have been absorbed and slaughtered, amount to at least a hundred billion. The resources plundered are countless. If all this is supported by the city lord's mansion…”
