Chapter 406: Chapter 405: Corpses Cover the Field

There was a rumbling sound from Jia Yueguan, causing people on the city wall to tremble.

The First Princess looked down and saw a large hole had been blasted into the city wall; the Black Moon Legion and City-Destroying Cannon Legion were swarming in through it.

When Ji Bei and Ji Bai glanced, they saw countless shadows rushing towards the hole in the vast expanse in front of Jia Yueguan, like ants scurrying forward.

The sheer number of them, like a tsunami of beasts, was extremely intimidating and horrifying to look at.

The First Princess urgently exclaimed, "Elder Ji Bei, Elder Ji Bai, I need you to lead the powerful disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect with me to slaughter the enemy leaders!"

"Chu Jiangliu, you stay on the wall and command the battlefield."

"Understood." Chu Jiangliu, Ji Bei, and Ji Bai all responded in unison.

"Disciples of Spirit Sword Sect, follow me!" Ji Bei yelled, leading the warriors of the Spirit Sword Sect down from the city wall.

From a distance, Tuoba Feng said coldly, "Elder Tang Tianhao, since the powerful disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect have taken action, the Shengyue Sect shouldn’t rest idle. These ants from the Spirit Sword Sect are your responsibility."

Tang Tianhao faintly smiled and said, "Your Highness can rest assured, the mere Spirit Sword Sect is nothing to us."

"Disciples of Shengyue Sect, follow me!"

Tang Tianhao led the way, guiding the disciples of the Shengyue Sect away from the formation.

Tuoba Feng sneered, looking at Jia Yueguan, "Today is the day Shenwu Kingdom perishes! Brothers, let’s charge in!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

All the soldiers of the Black Moon Legion and City-Destroying Cannon Legion of the Dayue Kingdom fearlessly charged into the hole.

From the city wall, Chu Jiangliu saw this and roared, "Heavy Shield Unit, move up and block the gap!"

Heiya! Heiya! Heiya!

At Chu Jiangliu’s roar, towering men strode out from Jia Yueguan, donned in black armor, holding shields higher and sturdier than door panels, they quickly moved to block the gap.

"Spear Unit! Vanguard Battalion! Follow the Heavy Shield Unit and hold the gap!"

"Bow and Crossbow Unit! Prepare the Penetrating Cloud Arrows!"

Inside Jia Yueguan, nearly a hundred thousand soldiers of the Bow and Crossbow Units quickly lined up, arrows nocked to their bows, ready for launch.

"Fire!"

Chu Jiangliu roared.

Whoosh—

Hundreds of thousands of sharp swords grouped together as one voice, falling from the sky like rain towards the exterior of Jia Yueguan.

"Prepare!"

Just after firing, Chu Jiangliu continued to shout.

The Bow and Crossbow Unit prepared once more.

Below the wall, the Princess, Ji Bei, and Ji Bai stood arrogantly among the masses, their treasure swords emitting a chilling gleam.

"Humph, the high disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect, let’s see what you’ve got!"

At that moment, Tang Tianhao led the disciples of the Shengyue Sect from the left flank, charging towards the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect.

"Engage!"

Without showing any sign of weakness, Ji Bei, with a charge of his sword, aimed straight for Tang Tianhao’s vital parts.

Instantly, the disciples of the Shengyue Sect and Spirit Sword Sect were entangled in battle.

The Princess also engaged the Dayue Kingdom’s legions that had charged to the base of the city wall.

The fierce battle was in full swing, with cries of agony echoing all around.

In just half an hour, there were already millions of bodies lying around Jia Yueguan, both inside and out.

Over a million soldiers truly died.

The blood had almost dyed the sandy soil red.

Tuoba Feng, arriving on horseback at this moment, saw that the legions of the Dayue Kingdom could not break through any gaps guarded by the Heavy Shield Unit and instantly roared with rage, "City-Destroying Cannon, aim for the gap and shatter these heavy shields!"

Kalala!

The City-Destroying Cannon adjusted its direction once again, readying for the breach.

With an earthshaking boom, a shot was fired.

Within the silver-white beam of light, the soldiers of the heavy shield unit were instantly turned to dust, not even moans of pain were heard.

"Break through!"

Tuoba Feng saw the heavy shield unit disappear, a breach opened again. He roared relentlessly.

"Kill them!"

The tigers and wolves of Dayue Kingdom charged into the breach, entering Jia Yueguan, engaging in close-quarter combat with the soldiers.

Chu Jiangliu leapt from the wall, landing in front of the four million warriors within the Jia Yueguan. He lifted his sword high and roared, "Brothers, it’s time to defend our home and our country!"

"Unsheathe your sharp swords, show your fighting spirit! Let’s have a good slaughter!"

"Kill them!"

Within Jia Yueguan, four million of the army were ready to go, stirred by Chu Jiangliu’s roar.

The four million soldiers united and charged towards the breach.

For a moment, the elite legions of the two great empires started a bloody melee.

Tuoba Feng followed the massive army and saw the Princess in her white military attire. A cold sneer escaped his lips, "Hmm, always heard that the Princess of Shenwu country was a valiant heroine, witnessing it today, indeed exceptional. Well, allow me to get a taste too!"

Tuoba Feng spurred his horse towards the Princess.

Sending a brutal strike her way.

The Princess was startled. Immediately, she released her sword skill against Tuoba Feng.

Both were commanders of their respective armies, whoever slew the other, their side would undoubtedly suffer a swift decrease in morale.

On the battlefield, both naturally didn’t hold back, displaying their chilling killing moves, and began their fierce battle.

About half an hour into the battle, Tuoba Feng found a flaw and sent the Princess flying with a strike.

Splat!

The Princess spat out blood and fell against the wall, her face pale, and her spirit seemed to dwindle.

"It seems that the Princess of Shenwu country, besides her good looks, isn’t much after all. But even if you are beautiful, you are no match for Consort Yun." Tuoba Feng chuckled coldly.

Ever since Tuoba Feng got involved with Consort Yun, no woman in the world was enough to catch his eye.

"If Shenwu country falls, there will undoubtedly be someone to settle the score with you." The Princess looked at Tuoba Feng, smiling coldly.

"Is that so? Are you still hoping for Lin Bai? That lad probably has run away by now." Tuoba Feng sneered coldly, "Even if he were here now, I would not fear him in the least."

The Princess scoffed disdainfully.

On the city wall, Wu Jian and Fire Spirit were shackled by a group of soldiers, barely able to resist.

Wu Jian burst into triumphant laughter, "Haha, a bunch of idiots, a bunch of fools, this is the so-called loyalty you hold dear, this is your so-called soldier, everything you believe in ended your lives."

Fire Spirit chuckled too, "I think Brother Wu Jian makes a good point, these people are nothing but ants."

The two seemed particularly jubilant at the sight of Shenwu country’s troops being slaughtered.

At that moment, from the distant sky, a lightning bolt showcasing the colors of purple with a tinge of green flashed and fell on the city wall of Jia Yueguan.

It fell right next to Wu Jian and Fire Spirit!

Swipe!

The purple-green lightning turned into a shadow of a person.

It was Lin Bai.

Ever since Lin Bai kidnapped Consort Yun from the imperial capital of Dayue Kingdom, he rushed back to Shenwu country without stopping. Unfortunately, no matter how quick Lin Bai was, he was a step too late.

Now Lin Bai looked down to see, corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like a river.

The troops of Shenwu country and Dayue Kingdom, the dead soldiers piled up at the city gate, forming a mountain of bodies.

As Lin Bai saw soldiers of Shenwu country falling in puddles of blood, his eyes gradually reddened. His heart gave birth to a rage that felt as if it could set the heavens on fire!

"All of you, stand down!"

With a roar of fury, overpowering the noise of the world, echoing across the battlefield.
