He said, "Okay, time is of the essence here. Capture everyone in the surroundings with a 6-circle realm of cultivation and above. Imprison them and bring them here. After I confirm their identities, you can have them as your meal. As for the weaker ones you encounter on the way, just knock them out."

"Consider it done." The demon was very much excited to do the job as it is in his nature to do such evil deeds. Rising into the sky, Bael then looked at the city where people are running in fear and glanced at his contractor, "my judgment is correct. This man will bring chaos with him. And I like it. Anyways, let's get this party started."

The demon king Bael proceeded to scan the entire city and spotted the majority of the individuals gathered at one spot. He couldn't help but lick his lips as he stared at the majestic palace from far away. 

There were a couple of them hiding in the city and one individual helping the others but the demon gave priority to the spirit warriors in the Ji palace as they were more in number and appeared tastier.

Meanwhile, in the palace, the clan heir Ji Guanli and his mother were house-arrested by Ji Cheng, the Clan Patriarch. 

He placed several guards as their security as the grand elder summoned the clan members to protect the palace while the Church of Nuwa, guilds, Mt. Hua sect, and the imperial troops currently present within the city outskirts proceeded to enter the city to look for the culprits.

"Some of the enemies have breached our walls and I will focus on capturing them until Feng Wu's army arrives at the city," said General Hu Shi as he was prepared to head out.

The others also had jobs to supervise their subordinates or atleast pass the orders to them. A couple of them also planned to head out but all of their actions were interrupted by the appearance of a stranger who just looked like some civilian.

"Who are you? How do you get inside?" Ji Cheng shouted at Bael as he saw him. General Hu Shi didn't know why but he felt something off and quickly halted his footsteps. He was about to take out his platinum-grade sword from his storage ring but the stranger captured his thoughts almost instantly and raised his hand.

"Bone prison."

*Snap*

As he snapped his finger with a devilish grin on his face, bones erupted from the ground out of nowhere and surrounded Hu Shi from all sides, imprisoning him.

"You bastard." Hu Shi took out the sword and slashed at the thick bone but it even didn't leave any scratch on it, displaying its toughness.

Meanwhile, the others became alerted as realization dawned upon them. "An expert." 

Grand Elder, Ji Jiango made his move. He conjured a hot fireball in his hands and quickly fired at the stranger without any hesitation, believing they were under attack.

Bael smirked as he looked at the fireball, which only has the power of a mid-7 circle.

"My servants of the darkness, arise." Bael unleashed another ability of his. 

In an instant, skeletons rose from the ground one after another. The fireball hit one of them but didn't do any damage. And there were ten such skeletons in the room. 

"A necromancer with 9-circle cultivation?" The same thought came to all of them as their eyes fell on the skeletons, and instantly, the imprisoned General take out his communication talisman and sent a message to Supreme Commander Bai Xun.

The demon overlooked it as he wasn't instructed to keep an eye on the humans' actions after they were imprisoned.

Once the undead skeletons heavily injured the targets, they were also imprisoned in a bone prison before all of those prisons started floating in the air, following the demon.

Bael returned to the same spot in just five minutes with the prisoners. Mark felt amazed at first but then thought that it is obvious these 6-circle and 7-circle experts are no match for the demon king, who had the power of an immortal at the moment.

Due to the lack of sunlight, the prisoners couldn't see Mark and the light from the fire caused by explosions from far away was quite dim. All they could see is a blurry figure.

Ji Cheng went on to threaten Mark without knowing his identity. "Free us, you mixed egg (bastard). Or else, you will pay for the consequences."

Mark ignored him for a moment and looked at Bael, "Are these all?"

Bael shook his head, "there were three more."

"Then, bring them here too." Mark gave his order and focused on his prisoners. 

The audacity of a human to order a higher being like a servant amused the demon instead of offending him. As a demon king, he was just fond of all the bad traits in his contractors.

"Alright but don't kill them. They are my food." Bael didn't forget to remind Mark of his earlier order and flew away.

Mark then went on to activate God's Eye skill, which was upgraded from Sage's eye after the system came online. Its function remains the same, except that no one would be able to hide their information now.

After getting to know their details, he thought, "Church of Nuwa, Mt. Hua sect, Ji Clan, and a new northern general. Everyone gathered in one spot. Good… very good. Let's keep one as a hostage." 

Meanwhile, at Imperial City;

Emperor Shang Fu was sleeping soundly in his room but his happy dream, whatever it might be, disappeared as he was forced to wake up early in the morning.

"Ugh… not again." Shang Fu complained as this was the fourth time his sleep was disturbed in the past six months. The fact there were such frequent urgent situations kept on occurring at such unusual times which require his attention only mean not everything is right in the empire.

"Come in."

After giving permission for the guard to enter the room, Shang Fu slowly got up.

The Imperial guard reported the matter to the Emperor without leaving any detail.

And without any surprise, the Emperor was shocked by the report and spoke, "Pass the message to Bai Xun that I want him at the palace this instant. I'm also calling for an emergency assembly."

"Your Majesty." The imperial guard hurriedly left the room and went to inform the Emperor's orders to his superior who passed it to the Chief Eunuch who had the means of communication with Bai Xun, the Generals, and the ministers.

And within 45 minutes, everyone arrived at the courtroom and took their seat.

"I bet all of you must have already been informed of what's going on in Western Yan," said Emperor Shang with a look of frown on his face. "Feng Wu declared the war without giving off any prior notification."

Nie Rougang showcased his loyalty by trying to be angry, "How dare those traitors to try to invade our empire. They must be hanged to death, Your Majesty."

"But, why now?" asked Lin Wuying in wonder. "What is it that made them confident to wage a war when there were a bunch of experts openly waiting for them? Is there a stronger expert in their midst?"

Bai Xun then asked, "what about the updates from the Ji clan?"

"They might be currently engaging with that unknown expert," opinioned the Grand Secretariat. "The message we received from Western Yan is just through captains."

"Are they even alive?" The third prince was feeling suspicious of the state of the allies.

Emperor Shang then said, "I have yet to speak everything. About 40-45 minutes ago, Chief Eunuch had received a message from General Hu through the communication talisman."

As the rest of the ministers turned their heads to look at the guy standing beside the Emperor, the Eunuch informed them, "Before even the war started, an unknown enemy intruded into the Ji palace and attacked everyone. According to General Hu, the enemy is suspected to be a supreme realm warrior and can summon the undead. He is a necromancer.

Everyone has been taken as hostages by the time Feng Wu reached the city with his army equipped with Lu Zhen's weapons and armored vehicles."
