Chapter 987: Chapter 812: Emperors of Taixu_4

"Dammit!"

Chang Shiwang couldn’t help but curse loudly, thinking that the plundering plan must be postponed now.

He then curiously asked, "Where do these troops come from? I’ve never seen warships of this shape before."

He thought these warships were coming to dock for restock and food supplies.

This place, known as ’Huangdu Heaven’, was not only rich in mines but also a famous relay port in the vicinity.

Many merchant ships and long-voyage warships would replenish their water supplies here.

However, Li Lexing’s expression was solemn, "No, these warships, they are here to attack ’Huangdu Heaven’."

He saw the thirty-seven warships led by the ’Kunpeng Warship’, opening their cannon ports on the sides, extending thousands of cannons beyond the gunboats.

The main cannons of these warships were continuously accumulating Thunderbolt.

Chang Shiwang couldn’t help but laugh sarcastically, "Attack Huangdu Heaven? With just these few warships?"

The Changsheng Emperor of the South valued ’Huangdu Heaven’ greatly. The Taixu Navy stationed here consisted of over four hundred warships.

Among them, four main ships were each five hundred zhang long and famously imposing.

’Huangdu Heaven’ indeed became alert early on; countless warships swarmed out of the harbor.

Yet, what Chang Shiwang saw next was perplexing; instead of confronting the incoming enemies, the warships were scrambling to flee northwards.

In the Outer Taixu, there are no specific directions, navigation relied on the Stars.

The north is represented by the North Star, and the south by the South Star.

Xu Tiande was also bewildered, "Old Li, what’s going on here?"

The Li he called out to was not Li Lexing, but Li Siben.

This person was the nephew of Emperor Tai of Jin, the Prince Qiyang, ranked third among the founding military ministers of the Jin Dynasty.

Unfortunately, his son was an incompetent fellow who directly caused the death of the Jianling Emperor.

Xu Tiande often sighed at the thought, wishing he could reverse time and kill Li Siben’s son before any geese were eaten.

Fortunately, Emperor Taizong, although not fond of these founding nobles, did not mistreat their descendants after coming to power.

"They are calling them ’Xuanhuang bandits’."

Li Siben listened intently, "They said they couldn’t oppose or get near them. The fleet should spread out as much as possible to preserve the warships. It seems the forces of the Emperor of the South have already suffered huge losses to them twice, losing over a thousand warships.—"

This was the Outer Void, where theoretically, no sound could be heard.

But he possessed the Wind Ears, almost akin to the Diting.

The Great Ancestor had repeatedly deployed him as Jianjun, listening in on all matters within the large army.

Great Ancestor had repeatedly uncovered major cases and cut down meritorious leaders, yet the army had always remained stable, safe, and unharmed, all credit to Li Siben.

The few present couldn’t help but exchange bewildered glances, wondering who this incredible person was.

Chang Shiwang couldn’t help but click his tongue, chuckling dismissively, "Could they really take down ’Huangdu Heaven’? The defense Array here is top-notch. Even if the Emperor himself arrived, it would take half an hour to break through its defenses. Both Old Xu and I have tried and found it tough—"

If the few of them had enough resources to ascend to the Extreme Heavenly Level, they indeed might stand a chance to forcefully attack Huangdu Heaven.

Especially since he and Xu Tiande possessed talent and martial prowess not inferior to famous generals.

Chang Shiwang believed that once he reached the Extreme Heavenly Level, he could even contend with a weaker ’Holy Heaven Level’.

But in the Outer Void, they had no resources to ascend to the ’Extreme Heaven’ Level.

At that moment, Chang Shiwang’s entire being stiffened.

It was because those distant warships at that instant spat out dazzling white Light, launching hundreds of cannonballs into ’Huangdu Heaven’.

As the extensive two thousand li small world was drastically obscured, the central Array that protected the entirety of ’Huangdu Heaven’ practically shattered at the sound.

Chang Shiwang was stunned. Then, he couldn’t help but swear, "Fuck! Where did these ’Xuanhuang bandits’ come from?"

Being bandits themselves, compared to the ’Xuanhuang bandits,’ their ’Red Turban Army’ was outright weak.
