Chapter 504 - 504 490 Bloodletting
Chapter 504: Chapter 490: Bloodletting Chapter 504: Chapter 490: Bloodletting Xiao Bai quickly received a pigeon letter from Gua Zhengnie.
And it was marked as urgent.
It left Xiao Bai very restless. It was a shame to just abandon the plan of trapping the New City Sect members in Wasteland City, but the letter was from Gua Zhengnie, saying they were about to die in the manor. Xiao Bai had no choice but to listen.
Xiao Han knew that his father, Xiao Bai, wanted to seize Wasteland City, but he also knew that they could not do it all at once. Although they now had the New City Sect members trapped, they could hold on for two more days. However, it was hard to say if Gua Zhengnie could last that long.
Xiao Han said, “We should follow orders. We now surround Jiang Zhuge’s party but we cannot eliminate them at once. If Gua Zhengnie cannot wait, we have to abandon our siege sooner or later. In just one night, we have already received two urgent letters.
If we disobey, even if we really take Wasteland City, I fear Gua Zhengnie will not be pleased. We have to listen to him, otherwise we won’t last in the Third Demon. This thankless task is not worth the defiance. Missing this opportunity is not a big loss. But losing Gua Zhengnie’s trust will result in big trouble. Father, you will have to face him in the future. Up to now, we haven’t been able to take Wasteland City, he can’t blame us, we should hurry back.”
Xiao Bai did not say a word.
“We must listen to him. He is the Alliance Leader. I know father wants to take Wasteland City and defeat the New City Sect, but what can we gain from disobeying his orders? It will only bring distrust, a cold shoulder. Not worth it,” Xiao Han said.
Zun Yu, who also learned about the situation, rushed over and said, “The New City Sect, together with the beings from the Demon Domain, have invaded the city and surrounded my senior brother in the manor. They are trapped there and their lives are in danger at any moment.”
Xiao Bai quickly showed the letters to Zun Yu, who was left stunned.
Xiao Bai asked, “Second brother, what should we do?”
Looking at the two urgent letters, Zun Yu who knew Gua Zhengnie’s temperament, said, “We can’t just ignore him. This Wasteland City, I guess it will take two to three days to take over, but Sky Domain City’s emergency is more pressing. If we don’t return, they won’t be able to hold on for two more days. We must go back to Sky Domain City.” He was originally sent by Gua Zhengnie to keep an eye on Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai nodded and said, “It’s a shame about Wasteland City. If we could have held them for another two days, we would have achieved something.”
“Ha, they just got lucky. Sky Domain City’s crisis is more urgent. Even if we get Wasteland City, we’d still suffer a net loss.”
“That’s true.”
“After all, it’s an order from the Alliance Leader, we can’t just disobey,” Zun Yu said.
“Okay, I’ll prepare now, and we’ll go back at noon.”
“Alright, I need to prepare a little as well. Let these New City Sect people live a few more days. After saving Sky Domain City from the crisis, we’ll deal with them.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai went to prepare.
Soon, Xiao Bai led the people of the Third Demon, retreating from Wasteland City.
Within Wasteland City.
Kong Sha quickly ran in, found Jiang Zhuge, and said, “Xiao Bai and his team have withdrawn.”
The disciples erupted into cheers, they had waited for this day for so long that they couldn’t believe it was actually happening.
Can Mo said, “It seems that Ye Chen’s plan worked.”
Jiang Zhuge nodded and said, “Get moving, clear out the stagnant water in Wasteland City.”
Immediately, Can Mo led the disciples to get busy.
Xiao Bai hurried towards Sky Domain City.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Who knew what had happened, but several loud explosions shattered the tranquility of the mountain.
Xiao Han glanced at Xiao Bai, “From our sources, New City Sect’s people are all still in Sky Domain City. They only brought more than two hundred people into Wasteland City, there won’t be more people coming.”
Before he even finished speaking, a cold wind blew from that side.
It was like a gigantic beast, a mighty army rushing towards them. Trees swayed back and forth, the ground shook, mountains trembled, and cries of “The lake at the top of the mountain exploded!” could be heard.
Zun Yu was shocked, and shouted, “Run!”
The horses were scared and scurried everywhere.
The water from the mountain lake poured down towards them. They were in the valley, and instantly, the valley was transformed into a river. There were countless casualties.
Li Mo at the forefront saw Xiao Bai leading people fleeing towards the hillside and was furious. “I let you release poison, surround our Wasteland City.”
Li Mo pushed the prepared Fireballs down from the mountain, and with the aid of the monsters, they all pressed towards the hillside. The cries of agony were so clear even from miles away.
“See how you’re going to die, surrounding us, you traitor,” Li Mo said.
Xiao Bai was left speechless with rage, and shouted, “Release the Winged Dragon, bomb that bunch of bastards on the mountain top.”
Li Mo did not have time to finish with them, he released the Winged Dragon and the Fireballs, then fled.
The ear-splitting calls were unending.
The flood atop the mountain came swiftly, giving no time to react.
Li Mo’s disciples rushed to retreat from the back of the mountain.
A disciple said, “Sect Leader always has a way.”
“Of course, they’re in for a surprise now. Let’s see if they dare to mess with us again. If I had enough manpower, I’d drown them all in the valley.” Li Mo was quite pleased.
A sudden flood, followed by a massive fire and then monsters, attacked like demons and swallowed most of Xiao Bai’s men in an instant.
Xiao Bai asked Chen Jiu to count the number of people.
Chen Jiu reported, “At least four hundred are dead, and over two hundred are scattered and unaccounted for. We can’t even find some of their bodies.”
Zun Yu exclaimed, “Damn it, isn’t the New City Sect known for its kindness?! How dare they use such underhanded tactics. They must be blind to do this!” He was soaking wet, having just climbed out of the water.
Xiao Han came down from the mountain and said, “It was just a small group of them. They have escaped from the back mountain.”
Chen Jiu continued, “Some escaped into the forest. We have no idea how many are dead.”
Xiao Bai seemed at a loss for words. He should have anticipated what would happen, but he didn’t expect the New City Sect to use only a little over two hundred people to attack Sky Domain City and guess that he would not send any ambush. Now he regretted it deeply. If it weren’t for the urgent message, he wouldn’t have chosen this path. It was all too late now.
“Should we find those people and leave together?” Chen Jiu asked.
Zun Yu replied, “They have limbs. If they are alive, they will return to Sky Domain City on their own. Now the important thing is Sky Domain City. We must hurry back. Our brothers have held on for a whole day and night.”
Xiao Bai said, “In that case, Zun Yu, you lead a group of people and return to Sky Domain City as quickly as possible. I will rescue the scattered survivors and rush back to Sky Domain City.”
“Alright, be careful. There shouldn’t be any ambushes left, right?”
“There shouldn’t be. They only had a little over two hundred people. If there were still any ambushes, they would have tried to take over the Third Demon Manor.” Xiao Bai said.
Zun Yu nodded and immediately led a group of people towards Sky Domain City.
Gua Zhengnie started cursing again, “How come Xiao Bai hasn’t come back yet?”
Someone told Gua Zhengnie that they were trapped by a flood halfway there.
Gua Zhengnie didn’t buy it and retorted, “With this weather, it’s not even raining heavily. Where would a flood come from?”
The subordinate explained in detail hastily.
“Those sons of bitches, how can they be so awful to release a flood! Why am I not as ruthless as them? If I were half as ruthless as them, I wouldn’t be in this state today!”
The disciple added, “But, Alliance Leader, rest assured, Zun Yu has escaped from the flood and is rushing to Sky Domain City. I believe they will arrive soon.”
Gua Zhengnie shouted, “Tell them to hurry up. We cannot let these bastards escape. Once I catch them, I will pull their tendons and peel their skin.” The buildings had been utterly destroyed, with a massive fire still raging.
Ye Chen soon learned of Li Mo’s success, but he also knew that the game could only go this far. If they kept this up, once Zun Yu and his team returned, they would be wrapped up like dumplings.
Guan Yi said, “We should withdraw.”
Ye Chen commanded, “Whatever gunpowder, smoke bombs, or uncontrollable monsters you have, throw all of them in. We will evacuate Sky Domain City in half an hour.”
A wave of gunpowder, winged dragons, smoke bombs were poured into the Third Demon’s manor, causing utter chaos inside.
Day and night were indistinguishable, with fires raging even more magnificently than fireworks. Tonight, the busiest place in Sky Domain City was undoubtedly the Third Demon’s Manor.
Some commoners sat on rooftops, witnessing the fireworks over the Third Demon’s Manor.
Ye Chen wouldn’t disappoint the townsfolk. During the day, he even got someone to spread the word in Sky Domain City, warning that anyone who joined the Third Demon would end up like those at the Third Demon’s Manor.
Frankly, the townsfolk already deeply despised Gua Zhengnie. In such a short period, Gua Zhengnie had claimed countless lives, making the townsfolk resentful yet unable to voice their anger.
Some people in Sky Domain City took advantage of the chaos to escape from the city.
Gua Zhengnie’s manor was completely destroyed. He was huddled in a corner, unsure of what to do next.
It wasn’t until a disciple hurried over to inform him that Zun Yu had already returned to the city with his men that Gua Zhengnie, startled, finally believed it was true. He didn’t resemble a leader at all. He could only be described as disheveled, with a mournful expression.
Although Ye Chen didn’t have enough gunpowder to destroy Sky Domain City or enough manpower to capture Gua Zhengnie’s manor, throwing them into disarray had been a great success.
Zun Yu couldn’t believe the sight of a panicked Gua Zhengnie. It was strange. His manor and the area outside it had become two separate worlds. Inside the manor, not a single building was intact. Outside the manor, it was as if nothing had happened.
Gua Zhengnie seemed to have lost his soul, and it was as if his spirit had gone somewhere else.
Seeing Gua Zhengnie, who was dazed like someone who had narrowly escaped death, Zun Yu hurried over to comfort him.
