Chapter 513 - 513 499 The Big defeat against Gua Zhengnie

Chapter 513: Chapter 499: The Big defeat against Gua Zhengnie and Wasteland City Chapter 513: Chapter 499: The Big defeat against Gua Zhengnie and Wasteland City Gua Zhengnie walked over and yelled, “Stop the smoke, they’ve already entered the city.”

Gui Lang quickly stopped and responded, “I thought they hadn’t gone in, so I released more smoke to obscure their vision. It’s safer for them.”

Wasteland City was suddenly covered in thick smoke, making it tough to see anything within a few feet.

The Winged Dragons were still battling in the sky, but the city had become much quieter. The fight on the city wall had not yet ended.

Li Mo informed Ye Chen, “Xiao Bai and Zun Yu have led at least six to seven hundred people into the city.”

“Okay, remember, follow the plan.”

Gradually, the dense smoke began to dissipate and the sounds of battle slowly rose again.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The city was now in chaos.

Xiao Bai wanted to let more people into the city and aimed to break through the city gate.

Now, Ye Chen was not too concerned about the city gate. He was more interested in how many people could be killed by the mutant powers.

Xiao Bai was very familiar with the city. In no time, he had reached the city gate.

All of a sudden, there was a pincer attack on the city gate, and the disciples of New City Sect gradually felt the pressure escalating. Hundreds, if not thousands, of monsters appeared within the Wasteland City.

Jiang Zhuge assessed the situation and remarked, “They are nearly overwhelmed; the city gate has been breached.”

Ye Chen replied, “Alright, let them stop defending the city gate, let them come in, let them in.”

Xiao Bai opened the city gate. The men of the Third Demon became excited.

Someone told Gua Zhengnie, “Xiao Bai and his men were successful. They have taken control of the city gate; we can enter the city now.”

Gua Zhengnie was so pleased that he was lost for words. He could only utter, “Good.”

Ye Chen had his men retreat.

Xiao Bai felt more uneasy as he pondered why the city gate had been breached so easily. He asked, “Chen Jiu, do you think this could be a trap?”

“What trap?” Zun Yu asked, puzzled.

“The city gate was not so easily breached when Jiang Zhuge was here. Their new Sect Leader can’t be this incompetent.”

Before he could finish speaking, fireworks shot into the sky, signaling the disciples of New City Sect.

The signal was to tell the disciples of New City Sect and the Xian Demon World to hide until the mutant powers were released.

Ye Chen threw a box that magically hovered about sixty feet above the city. Ye Chen released a Winged Dragon towards the box. There was a thunderous noise, like an earthquake coupled with falling meteors. A shockwave erupted in the sky above them.

Countless golden lights instantaneously shot out like rain, each like a supremely sharp sword, slaying in all directions.

One large wave attacked within the city, another wave attacked the sky, and the powerful shockwave swallowed the city wall.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Three consecutive shockwaves caused the earth to tremble, like mountains collapsing and the earth splitting.

At that moment, it seemed as if Hell had descended on Earth.

In the blink of an eye, countless lives were taken. Many Winged Dragons in the sky were also hit. Hundreds of them dropped down like ripe fruit.

The loud explosion destroyed numerous buildings within the city.

Gua Zhengnie was preparing to head towards the city gate when he saw numerous creatures and his disciples collapsing before him.

Gui Lang was stunned. Dumbfounded, he asked, “What’s happening?”

Gua Zhengnie also stopped in his tracks.

Just as they were trying to understand what had happened and the smoke had not yet cleared, the sounds of battle roared again.

The disciples who were hiding sprang out.

Can Mo quickly released the restless Winged Dragons held within their cages, instantly controlling the airspace above them.

Gua Zhengnie was so frightened he felt like he could lose his pants right there. He quickly turned to run.

The smoke remained thick within the city.

Xiao Bai somehow managed to survive, but his arm was bleeding profusely.

Helpless at the sight of his fallen disciples, he was at a loss for words.

Kuang Shen was dead.

Zun Yu was stupefied. Some people began to scream in fear. The scene was chaotic, as if they had just seen a ghost.

Xiao Bai declared, “This was a conspiracy.” Though he didn’t know exactly what had happened, he was certain it had to be a conspiracy.

With the disciples of the New City Sect resurfacing and attacking, how could they possibly defend themselves?

Xiao Han hurriedly released a group of monsters to stall them.

Zun Yu yelled, “We should retreat quickly!”

Chen Jiu replied, “The city gate has been retaken by the people of the New City Sect. Where can we retreat to?”

Of the six to seven hundred people who charged in, at least half of them were dead, and many more were severely injured.

“Then we should hurry and let Gua Zhengnie come to our rescue,” Zun Yu suggested.

“He’s long gone, he doesn’t care about us anymore.” Chen Jiu said, unwilling to concede.

Xiao Han looked at the stunned Xiao Bai and said, “Father, we can’t stay here for too long. We have too many injured. Gua Zhengnie has already fled with his men.”

“What should we do then?” Zun Yu stared at the corpse of Kuang Shen, grabbed Xiao Bai’s collar, and exclaimed, “I got you killed.”

Chen Jiu quickly intervened, trying to calm Zun Yu’s emotions, saying, “The most important thing right now is to escape. We can’t let them trap us in here.”

“How do we escape? Now we only have over 300 leftover soldiers, and the city gates have been recaptured by the enemy.” Zun Yu yelled in indignation.

However, Xiao Han said, “We still have a secret tunnel we haven’t used. How could we possibly not have a backup escape route?”

Upon hearing this, Zun Yu let go of Xiao Bai’s collar, urging, “Then what are you waiting for?”

“Father, we should leave first.” Xiao Han suggested.

Xiao Han called out, quickly lighting the prepared smoke grenades.

Obeying Xiao Han’s orders, Xiao Han and Xiao Bai, using the cover of the smoke and the escape tunnel, managed to lead the 300 men away, escaping from the city.

Ye Chen and his men began to clean up the battlefield. Li Mo was ecstatic, for the outcome was even better than what they’d predicted, but he regretted, “It’s a pity we let Xiao Bai escape.”

Kong Sha commented, “I don’t know how many secret tunnels this guy dug in the city, he’s just worthless.”

It made sense for a person to hide one secret escape route, but they would only use it as a last resort.

A disciple then came forward, announcing, “We found the secret tunnel they used to escape.”

Kong Sha ordered, “Seal it.”

The disciple nodded in acknowledgment.

Ye Chen also let out a sigh of relief.

“It’s a shame we let Xiao Bai escape so easily.” Li Mo was still a bit disgruntled.

Ye Chen stood up, suggesting, “Enough, everyone’s tired, and I’m exhausted. Those who need to rest, should rest.”

At this time, Jiang Zhuge had already ordered people to extinguish the raging fires in the city.

Ling’er quickly learned of the outcome in Wasteland City. With the help of several people, and without waiting for anyone to come up and fetch her, she descended the mountain.

Ye Chen gazed at the ruined houses behind him, lost in thought, uncertain whether it was time to end things. He finally felt a sense of calm.

Jiang Zhuge handed him some food, seeming to have released a breath of relief, saying, “At least 700 of them are dead, some bodies are unrecognizable. As for the Mutant Winged Dragons, they died in countless numbers.”

“What about us?”

“We lost just over a hundred people.” He handed the roast meat to Ye Chen. Jiang Zhuge continued, “In this war, we have thoroughly turned the situation around. In the future, it will definitely be increasingly favorable for us.”

Ye Chen looked at the buildings in front, where at least 60% had turned into a wasteland, and asked, “I wonder how long it will take to rebuild everything.”

“Relying on just us, it’s definitely impossible.”

“We must invite people from outside to help, bring back those who want to live in Wasteland City so that the reconstruction can proceed faster.”

“It seems like we can only count on you all now.” Ye Chen took out a book from his pocket, saying, “This defense system, although not as good as the Bagua Array, should have its uses. It is better than nothing.”

Jiang Zhuge took it, and asked, “Where did you get this from?” He opened it, scanned the pages, and kept nodding.

“I got it from Demon Palace City. Didn’t I stay in their library for a while!”

“That’s perfect.”

“It’s based on the Taiji Qiankun Array system, and in reference to the Big Dipper Seven Stars Array. I don’t know how to set it up, but if you can set it up within the city, it should provide some protection to Wasteland City. Albeit crude, it’s still better than having nothing.”

Jiang Zhuge kept nodding, exclaiming, “Indeed, this is wonderful.”

Ye Chen gave a small smile, saying, “I find it pretty troublesome.”

Jiang Zhuge looked in the direction Ye Chen was looking, and commented, “Yes, so many things have happened, it’s like we’re living in a dream. Too many people died, and the best way to restore peace to the Wastelands is by eliminating Gua Zhengnie and unifying the Wastelands.”

“Do you think our unification of the Wastelands is the right thing to do?”

“I know for you, unification will bring about a slaughter which you find hard to bear. But without unification, there will be too many ambitious people, which will lead to unnecessary killings.” Jiang Zhuge continued saying, “Just like Gua Zhengnie, this time we defeated them, but if we do not eliminate him, once he regains his strength, he will definitely create trouble for Wasteland City.

Back then, when Sect Leader Wei was around, he was too indulgent, and they grew more audacious. In the end, they even plotted to assassinate our sect leader. So, if you want the Wastelands to achieve the peace it deserves, you have to unify the Wastelands and establish a set of rules. Only then can the Wastelands be pacified.”

Ye Chen remained silent.

“Gua Zhengnie will never live in peace, such a person must be eliminated. Just get rid of them, then we can slowly deal with the troublemakers from Ghost City. I believe everything will be improved.”

Ye Chen nodded, saying, “I don’t know, perhaps you’re right. Maybe I’m too lenient, and that’s why I can’t achieve anything significant.”

“Looking at the current situation, it’s extremely advantageous for us. This battle turned the tides in our favor, and more and more people will want to join us. As long as we capture Sky Domain City and eliminate parasites like Gua Zhengnie, everything will get better.”

“Alright, I don’t have any room for rebuttal.”

“We will definitely be able to unify the Wastelands.” Jiang Zhuge assured.

Ye Chen took a deep breath.

“I firmly believe Wasteland City will get better.”

“I hope so.”
