hmmmm..or the city lord will stop them...then fight the beast invasion...then the zhou guy will magically escape...then he will go back to the village...and then something else
I guess. There is 10ish days before the beast invasion. I think Jian will almost destroy the entire Zhou clan before the city lord shows up. If hes at the Earth saint level he might be able to prevent the entire eradication but I feel like the Zhou's are finished within the next 1-2 chapters.
Here's hoping we get another 2-5 chapter release tomorrow to wrap up whats going to occur to the Zhou clan.
and this black magic was somehow imbued with Holy powers given by @Jesus to vanquish the menace of @Odyssey
Well Zhou clan basically finished. Only the Son ran away. now its time for the Tianxiong clan to get destroyed. Still have a few chapters left so can't wait to read them.
When Jian Chen is done with them... Two clans destroyed before the wave, that means more people are going to die during it. Jian Chen really destroying this poor Rank 3 City.
Jian Chen is strong enough to make up for the two destroyed clans. Might be different if the Tianxiong does get those other mersernary groups to fight against Jian Chen and get destroyed. As much as hes acting as a badass i think he will save the two regardless. He will do it for Kendel's family once he finds them.
He might be fast but he can't be everywhere. It's more important to have a large amount of bodies in front to block the beasts from breaching perimeter then one crazy sword wielding guy no matter how many beasts he can kill.
But its not like the other people are actually good. Its been said that most need a group of 5-20 people to kill a beast within the same rank as their cultivation. Jian Chen can kill ones higher and by himself. The others would basically be shields. It would be better to have one that could instantly destroy the beasts (except high levels) then others that basically block them. If its a town of 100K like it stated there should be other cultivators and missing 100-300 should be enough for Jian Chen to make up the slack.
There were 100 just for the Zhou mercenaries, another good 100 or so Zhou Clan. Tianxong probably has more when you consider the loyal mercenaries that he'll send to their deaths, again.... It's probably more like 500ish.
Then take into the consideration of the 300-800 he killed a year ago when he was in the forest. And all the other times and his kill count adds up quickly.
Wait! I got it! That tiger that destroyed the flame mercenaries will be one of the beasts leaving the wave and thus Jian Chen stays to kill it. Otherwise I can see him saving Kendall's family only and forgetting about the rest.
It has a small cub and tigers usually don't give a fuck about others, I doubt it. But maybe for plot convenience it may happen.
