The three thousand soldiers of the Western Army were on high alert, their expressions solemn.
The few hundred soldiers left behind on the Divine Ships also operated the five Divine Ships. They activated all the arrays on the ships and accumulated a vast amount of power.
Although they looked orderly and majestic, the Western Army was composed of five forces.
But in reality, the western army was made up of five factions. Even if they had been working together for a few months, there was no tacit understanding or cooperation between them.
Seriously speaking, this was the first time the Western Army had faced a war!
From the moment they formed the army and began to carry out Ji Tianxing's orders to persuade them to surrender, everything had been smooth sailing. They had not encountered any resistance.
Tonight, in order to protect themselves, they were finally going to fight to the death.
Moreover, they were being ambushed and surrounded by eight thousand soldiers of the Western Army.
Not only were their opponents more elite and more tacit, but they also had twice the number of soldiers.
The battle had not yet begun, but the four thousand soldiers of the Western Army were already filled with pessimism and worry. Their hearts were uneasy.
Just as the atmosphere was somber and the battlefield was silent …
On the Western Army's side, two old men in luxurious robes walked out from the crowd, escorted by ten Divine Generals.
From the attitude of the crowd, one could see that the two old men were the leaders of the Western Army.
One of the old men was thin and wore a purple brocade robe. His long gray hair was tied up in a simple bun. He looked very simple and low-key.
However, his strength was at the ninth level of the God King Realm. His cultivation was very profound.
Seeing the appearance of the purple-robed old man, the Western Army's God King powerhouses were shocked and incredulous.
Several Patriarchs could not help but cry out in alarm.
"Internal Affairs Grand Commander?"
"Isn't he the Grand Commander in charge of the Asura Divine Palace's internal affairs? Doesn't he never leave the Asura Divine Palace?"
"Damn it! The Imperial Tutor is determined to destroy us. He even sent the Internal Affairs Grand Commander to fight! "
"This is enough to prove that the Imperial Tutor has no one he can use."
Indeed, the purple-robed old man was the Internal Affairs Grand Commander of the Asura Divine Palace. He was in charge of the Asura Divine Palace's internal affairs.
For a thousand years, the Internal Affairs Grand Commander had been in the Asura Divine Palace, handling all kinds of affairs and maintaining the stability and dignity of the Asura Divine Palace.
Ordinary people didn't have the qualifications to enter the Asura Divine Palace, so they naturally didn't recognize the Internal Affairs Great Commander.
However, the several ancient family clans of the western army had all entered the Asura Divine Palace before. Naturally, they had seen the Internal Affairs Great Commander before.
No one had expected that the Imperial Tutor would send this expert to lead an army to carry out an ambush mission.
After a moment of surprise, everyone's gaze fell on the other old man.
It was a white-haired old man wearing a luxurious blue robe. His entire body was inlaid with jade and beads, and his hair was tied up with a gorgeous divine crown. His entire body exuded a noble and dignified aura.
Seeing this person, the expressions of the clan leaders of the western army became somewhat complicated, and they all frowned.
"It's actually him?"
"I don't think many of the younger generation know him, right?"
"He is the Grand Elder of the Canglan Clan?"
"That's right! He is Canglan Undying, a legendary expert who was born in the ancient times, more than 20,000 years ago. "
"I've long heard that the low-key Canglan Clan has secretly pledged allegiance to the Asura God Emperor. Today, this rumor has been verified!"
"The experts dispatched by the Imperial Tutor before were all his subordinates, the direct subordinates of the Asura God Emperor.
Now, not only is he sending the Internal Affairs Great Commander to fight, but he's also sending Canglan Undying to lead the army. From this, it can be seen that the Imperial Tutor is truly lacking in powerhouses. "
"Is this considered good news amidst all the bad news?"
"Don't think so much. Let's first think about how we can break out of this encirclement."
The clan leaders secretly communicated with each other, their hearts brimming with worry and anxiety.
At this time, the Internal Affairs Great Commander and Canglan Undying led ten Divine Generals into the field. They looked at the powerhouses of the five factions and spoke.
"You should all know this one and God King Canglan.
As for why this one has led eight thousand elite soldiers here, you should all be well aware.
This one won't waste any more words. Now, I will give you two choices.
Surrender and submit to the Imperial Tutor.
Or be surrounded and killed by this one's eight thousand soldiers, dying without a complete corpse! "
The Internal Affairs Great Commander's expression was very cold, and his tone was not very fierce or domineering.
However, the aura and attitude he displayed was extremely domineering and unquestionable.
The soldiers of the western army were somewhat restless at these words, many of them whispering to each other.
"The Internal Affairs Great Commander wants us to surrender? Isn't he going to start a war and kill us all? "
"He's actually giving us a way out? Truly inconceivable!"
"Could it be that the Imperial Tutor is lacking manpower and urgently needs to replenish his forces?"
"Don't think about that. Even if the Internal Affairs Great Commander gives us a way out, we can't surrender!"
"That's right! With the oath binding us, even if we wanted to surrender, who would dare? "
"I'm just afraid that we'll be struck to pieces by heavenly lightning as soon as we say we're going to surrender."
"Sigh … the Kenshin's oath of surrender is truly too ruthless. It doesn't give us a way out at all …."
"Shut up! Don't forget that we're already part of the Rebel Alliance. We're soldiers under the Kenshin. Don't you dare criticize the Alliance Leader! "
"That's right. The heavens are watching us all the time. Be careful, trouble comes from careless talk!"
The soldiers of the five forces were discussing, and the clan leaders were also communicating telepathically with complicated expressions on their faces.
Clan Leader Wanyan frowned and took a step forward. He cupped his fists and bowed to the Internal Affairs Great Commander and Canglan Immortal. His expression was solemn as he said, "Thank you for your kind intentions, seniors. Even if you and I are enemies, you can still give us a way out.
Unfortunately, the Great Commander might not know that when we joined the Rebel Alliance, we made an oath to be witnessed and bound by the heavens.
Therefore, we appreciate the Great Commander's kind intentions.
I'm very sorry, but we can't surrender! "
The Internal Affairs Great Commander frowned and glanced sideways at Canglan Immortal, who was beside him, with an inquiring look.
He had only heard that the Kenshin's oath of surrender was very harsh and terrifying. However, he did not know the exact content of the oath.
As for Clan Leader Wanyan's words, he could not tell whether they were true or false, so he asked Canglan Immortal.
Canglan Immortal nodded at him, proving that Clan Leader Wanyan was telling the truth.
Only then did the Internal Affairs Great Commander believe him. He looked coldly at Clan Leader Wanyan and said, "In that case, you can only blame yourselves for being stupid and choosing to believe the Kenshin.
Since you've made your choice, you should pay the price. I will personally send you on your way! "
After that, the Internal Affairs Great Commander did not waste any more words with the western army. He waved his hand and gave the order to attack.
"Kill them all!"
Following the Internal Affairs Great Commander's cold shout, the 8,000 Western Punitive Expedition soldiers who were ready to attack immediately launched a siege.
The hundreds of soldiers who were in charge of controlling the Heaven and Earth Great Formation used all their strength to activate the Divine Formation. They released an invisible force to suppress the western army.
More than seven thousand armored and sword-wielding soldiers also charged from all directions, releasing overwhelming divine light and shadows.
