The City of Despair is a core city belonging to the Soul Race. Its lord, Hun Huan, holds a position of immense prestige within the clan. He is not only the lord of the City of Despair but also an elder of the Soul Race, his cultivation having truly surpassed the Ninth-Stage Universe Ancestral God level to reach the Half-Step Extreme Dao realm.

Watching the battle unfold below, Hun Huan was stunned. Jiang Chen was being surrounded. Those attacking him possessed formidable strength; Ling Kong’s cultivation was at the late peak of the Ninth-Stage Universe Ancestral God realm, while the others were at the seventh or eighth stage. Given Jiang Chen’s own strength, dealing with these people would typically be no issue at all, yet he could not retaliate. He was forced into a passive defense.
