The two armies met on the battlefield.
Hoey looked down from the city wall and saw the two armies colliding with each other. The cavalry of the Coiling Dragon Empire crashed into the enemy's left and right wings like two daggers. However, the Blazing Dragon Knight was exceptionally tough. After the middle of the long formation was pierced through by the Coiling Dragon Cavalry, it firmly blocked them. Then, the long formation circled around the battlefield from left to right and bit towards the Coiling Dragon Cavalry on the left and right sides.
The drums beneath the city wall changed. The Coiling Dragon Cavalry ignored the enemy soldiers attacking from the flank. The two cavalry on the left and right completely dispersed the Blazing Dragon Knight in the middle. Then, the two troops crossed each other and faced the Blazing Dragon Knight from the left and right. As a result, the cavalry's charge was still protected at its peak. Even if the Coiling Dragon Knight was inferior to the Blazing Dragon Knight in terms of individual combat strength, the overall impact was only higher than that of the Blazing Dragon Knight. Thus, under the collision, both sides suffered damage and temporarily fought to a draw.
However, the Coiling Dragon Cavalry was entangled by the Blazing Dragon Knight, and the Fire Horned Demons that had crossed the Spear City's firepower net charged at the city wall without any scruples. The Fire Horned Demons climbed up the wall in large numbers. Their forelimbs were powerful, and their human-like palms were very flexible. They climbed very quickly. From afar, it looked like a patch of red moss had risen from the city wall of Spear City. The red moss quickly rose to the middle of the city wall.
The gunmen on the city wall were almost lying on the side of the wall. Several groups of militiamen pushed oil barrels and poured oil down the wall. The Firehorned Demon could climb up the wall with its gun, but once the oil was poured down, the wall would become greasy and slippery, so it would be impossible to climb. One by one, they fell down, bumping into their companions below, and then helplessly falling down together.
As a result, the red moss that had already risen to the middle of the city wall began to descend again.
Hoey watched the battlefield from the city wall. Suddenly, he saw a group of Fire Horned Demons running towards the city gate. He hurriedly shouted, "Be careful, they're going to hit the door."
This group of ten Fire Horned Demons hugged the thick stone pillars and charged towards the city gate. The militias behind the city gate roared and pushed forward, not letting the enemy outside break in.
The Fire Horned Demon howled as he lifted his pillar and slammed it fiercely. The city gate reinforced with iron bars shook off countless dust. The people inside roared and pushed forward, trying to hold the gate open. After a short stalemate, the Fire Horned Demon put down the stone pillar and spat out flames from its mouth onto the city gate. The iron bars of the city gate were immediately burned red, and the wooden parts were charred, burning holes in them. The people who were holding up the city gate were caught off guard and were licked by the waves of fire, turning into flaming men. They screamed and retreated, bumping into the people behind them. At this time, the Fire Horned Demon hit the stone pillar again, and a crack was finally opened in the city gate. Immediately, a Fire Horned Demon desperately drilled in. The quartermaster shouted and jumped down. He slashed at the Fire Horned Demon's head, almost splitting it open. Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, another Fire Horned Demon drilled in through the crack in the door. He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of flame at the quartermaster. The quartermaster's entire body immediately caught fire and he screamed miserably as he jumped back. The Fire Horned Demon took the opportunity to open the door and ran in in twos and threes.
The militias looked at each other. Suddenly, one of them roared and rushed forward with his saber, shouting, "We can't let them in. Then we'll all be finished!"
Then, people came to their senses and shouted as they rushed forward. However, how could these ordinary militias be a match for the Fire Horned Demon? The Fire Horned Demon didn't even need to spit out flames. Just by using its barbaric strength, it could easily send the militias flying.
The hands of the young man who delivered the cannonball trembled. The middle-aged man in front of him punched back as soon as he rushed forward. His neck was clearly twisted to the side, and he was already dead. He was very afraid. At this moment, a Fire Horned Demon pounced over. He closed his eyes and shouted as he swung the sword in his hand.
Originally, he closed his eyes and waited for death, but strangely, nothing happened. The young man opened his eyes. Seeing his face being gently grabbed by a tramp, he didn't know what that person had done, but the body of the Fire Horned Demon in front of him fell apart like a building block that had been pushed down.
"Get out of here." The tramp smiled and welcomed the Fire Horned Demon that had entered through the crack in the door.
The young man looked at him and ran back. At this time, more soldiers came down from the city and rushed to the city gate to block the gap.
If Belle Kai knew that he had been treated as a tramp by the young man, he would definitely laugh bitterly, but he didn't have the time right now. In his hand was a one-handed sword. The sword was slender, as if it could break at any moment.
Belle Kai raised the sword and placed it between his eyebrows. He used the tip of the sword to lightly tap his forehead. This was the prayer ceremony of the Boleyn Family's swordsman. Then, Belle Kai flashed away. The young man who had already run to the periphery looked back from a high vantage point and saw a wave of blood at the city gate. He saw the sword in the tramp's hand flying, and the Fire Horned Demons continuously fell under his sword. The tramp had actually relied on his own strength to force the Fire Horned Demons that had rushed into the city back.
The young man's eyes were filled with reverence. He decided that if he didn't die today, he would definitely find an opportunity to learn swordsmanship from that tramp.
Many years later, people only knew that a man dressed in black, one man with a sword who stopped a Shadow Legion alone was the disciple of the former Ten Saints, Night Shadow Belle Kai. However, he didn't know that when this man was young, he had also timidly retreated under the claws and teeth of the enemy.
Outside the city gate, Belle Kai crawled out from the crack in the door. His sword danced as he killed all the remaining Fire Horned Demons. He raised his foot and kicked, piling up the stone pillars in front of the city gate. Then, he sat alone on the stone pillar.
The longsword was placed beside the emperor. He took off the wine bag from his waist and poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth. After drinking a mouthful of wine, Belle Kai wiped his mouth and looked at the battlefield in the distance. He couldn't help but sigh, "How spectacular."
Then, the scenery in front of him distorted. A figure emerged from the spatial rift, crossed the battlefield, and stood in front of the city gate. This was a very tall man. His entire body was covered in spiked armor and he held a flail in his hand. Behind him, a wave of fire was like a curtain, like a red cloak.
Belle Kai felt a gaze fall on him, and then he heard the man say under the helmet, "It's you again, human."
"That's right, it's me." Belle Kai said with a smile, "See? This road is blocked. Hurry up and leave."
Another voice sounded from under the helmet, "Since you're tired of living, then die this time."
"No."
Another voice sounded behind him. Ping Xiwang stood on the field with a spear in her hand and said, "The one who will die will not be him, but you."
