Volume One, Chapter 47: A Great Victory in a Bloody Battle
The battle between Zhao Shixuan and the Blood Emperor Snake King was nothing short of heaven-shaking and earth-shattering; the ground fractured, and the sky was blanketed by an aura of slaughter.
Countless chasms and deep craters formed across the landscape.
The Blood Emperor Snake King grew increasingly frantic.
Yanyang had yet to show his face, the human army's morale had not yet collapsed, and the rear seemed completely unscathed.
Had it been deliberately set up and deceived?
Roar~
Mole hesitated for a moment. Finally, he raised his hand in a military salute and said, "Lord Tushun, General Fred requests your presence." Although his expression remained somewhat unsightly, he still displayed basic courtesy, for Tushun's strength commanded his respect.
This meeting established that for the hundreds of years following the saints' return, Mount Beiyue would adopt a defensive stance. The Human Sect's strength was inherently insufficient—attacking was entirely out of the question, but defending was a sound option. Besides, where else was there to attack? The截教 (Jiejie Sect), the 阐教 (Chan Sect), and the Ancient Demon Race—which of them was not immensely powerful, far surpassing the Human Sect?
Chen Menghan shuddered slightly, then his lips twitched as goosebumps broke out all over his body at that endearment "darling."
"If that is your wish." Kong Xuan casually waved his hand, unleashing the Five-Color Divine Light, which moved at the speed of light. No one could travel at the speed of light except Yuding, so Lifang was also sucked into the light, though he immediately shattered the Five-Color Divine Light to break free.
To be fair, these few individuals were truly plagued by ill fortune. Everything had been fine just half a day prior, when suddenly a brute standing twelve feet tall burst in without a word. Meeting them, he immediately threw down, beating them all to a pulp within a few blows before finally stating his purpose: to recruit them as his subordinates.
Before long, the Nine-Headed Pheasant Spirit and the Jade Pipa Spirit were summoned respectively by King Zhou. Daji then discussed her inner thoughts with the two of them, and both declared they would follow Daji's lead in all things. Only then did Daji make up her firm resolve to protect King Zhou's realm.
"Hanhan, don't tell me this was swollen from you biting yourself." Yang Xuerou's gaze began to turn somewhat peculiar.
He was well aware of Robert's military tactics; the Piglin army was destined to be expendable. No matter how formidable they might be, they would ultimately remain an insignificant party in this decisive battle between humans and beasts. Neither Robert nor Alahan would allow this legion to survive beyond the final clash—their annihilation was a foregone conclusion.
Ever since she began learning martial arts from Lady Qi, Sizhen had often been praised for having a sharper gaze than before. At this moment, as she spoke, she deliberately widened her eyes into a piercing stare, causing everyone to burst into giggles.
The Eight Immortals of the Upper Grotto all belonged to the lineage of Lord Laozi and were not obliged to obey the Jade Emperor's decrees. Jinzha and Muzha, however, were part of the Jade Emperor's faction. Seeing Tie Guailai, the leader of the Upper Grotto Immortals, make a move, Muzha and Jinzha naturally wanted to witness it for themselves to see just how powerful Tie Guailai truly was.
Just a moment ago, he was still Vice-Chancellor Qin, but after uttering a single word in praise of Yue Fei, he was instantly upgraded to "Beloved Minister Qin." Can you please not be so blatantly hypocritical?
The Royal Academy, along with the Taiqing Academy and the Tianwu Academy, constituted the three largest academic-natured political forces in the State of Qin. However, the Tianwu Academy had been established by the direct decree of the Tianwu Emperor, granting it a transcendent status that ultimately set it apart from both the Royal Academy and the Taiqing Academy.
"All generals of various departments shall immediately begin making preparations in accordance with Beloved Minister Yue's commands. Ten days from now, We shall personally see you off."
Only Hao Miaomiao, wearing a pair of glasses, maintained a completely expressionless face, nodding at Tang Yuyan like a robot.
"However, fifty-five thousand yuan is the absolute limit of the discount I can offer. If not for the police officer status of you and your spouse, I could never sell this General's Armor at cost price."
Ye Tian nodded and was about to raise his hand in a bow when he noticed Tanyue glance at him before turning her head away.
ChuShiyan wanted to uproot those factions one by one, reducing Chu Zhao'an to a completely isolated man.
