Woo woo!
A mournful but majestic horn sounded from the top of Yanhui city walls, slowly drifting in all directions, spreading throughout the entire city. Almost everyone who stayed in Yanhui city came out of their homes, restaurants and inns. Among them were Yanhui city residents who could not bear to leave their homes, and there were also Jianghu heroes who came from afar to help.
An old man with a walking stick, who was too old to travel long distances and did not want to die in a foreign land, stood shakily in front of his house. He raised his eyes to look in the direction of the city walls, muttering, "Is the beast tide here? I wish I could be twenty years younger and mount a horse! "
A strong man with a long sharp blade on his shoulder, who was staying in the old man's house, grinned and said, "Sir, don't worry, count your share on me. My blade has long been thirsty."
The old man with the crutch squinted his eyes and smiled, revealing the deep wrinkles on his face. He said: "Young lad, I used to be one of the most famous hunters in Yanhui city. With a single bow, I could kill no less than a hundred monsters. Even when carrying two monsters on my shoulders, I could still walk as if I was flying. Don't ruin my reputation."
The strong man laughed and patted his chest. "Sir, don't look down on me. I, Liu Jindao, am also a famous figure in Jianghu. Ten, I promise to chop off the heads of ten beasts for you. How about it?"
The old man shook his head and said, "There's no need to chop off the heads. Those beasts have very thick skin and flesh. If you really chop off ten heads, your blade will be twisted. Dealing with beasts is not like fighting in Jianghu. Don't be careless."
The strong man cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your advice. Time waits for no man, I will leave now."
The old man nodded and said, "Go, go. I will warm up a pot of good wine and wait for you. Don't become food in the belly of that beast."
The strong man smiled and nodded. He shouldered his blade and left without looking back. Unexpectedly, he had only taken a few steps when the old man called out to him. The old man walked shakily to the front of the house and handed a set of soft armor to Liu Jindao. He patted the soft armor and said, "Don't show off when dealing with beasts. Don't be afraid of losing face. Although rolling eighteen times on the ground is ugly, it is very useful. Wear this soft armor, it should be able to block that claw. "
Liu Jindao nodded heavily as he looked at the soft armor, which was obviously quite old. Without saying a word, he put it on, turned his head, ran a few steps, and then soared into the sky! This unknown and unassuming looking strong man was actually an Origin Realm expert!
Countless similar scenes were happening all over Yanhui City at the same time. Whether it was three to five strong men traveling side by side, or lone experts like Liu Jindao, they all rushed to the north gate of Yanhui City.
A series of creaking sounds rang out as the city gate slowly opened. A group of heavily armored cavalrymen waited in formation. There were at least a few thousand of them.
Everyone knew that the heavy cavalry, which was known as the king of cavalry, was built with money. This was especially true for the heavy cavalry of the Nine Dragon Empire. Their enemies were not ordinary people. Regardless of whether it was their mounts or the armor on their bodies, they were all extraordinary. Otherwise, they would not have been able to block those tricky flying swords and rainbow spears.
Standing at the top of the city gate, Ye Wuhen nodded lightly as she looked down at the strict formation of the cavalrymen. "The Nine Dragon Empire indeed lives up to its name in the cultivation world as an empire."
Hearing this, Xia Zhengwen laughed and said, "To be able to receive such praise from Alliance Leader Ye, the soldiers of our empire are honored. We can die without regrets!"
Then, he turned his head to look down at the city gate and shouted in a loud voice, "Let's go!"
The heavy and orderly marching sound rang out in unison. The entire city wall trembled slightly. Outside the city, the heavy cavalry began to gradually increase their speed. They were ready to charge. Even if there was a ferocious beast tide blocking their way, Xia Zhengwen was confident that his cavalry would be able to break through it in one breath!
Following closely behind the heavy cavalry were countless light cavalry. Everyone held longbows in their hands, scimitars at their waists, and quivers of arrows on their backs. After leaving the city, all the light cavalry split into two groups. They went around the heavy cavalry and spread out from the left and right flanks. It was only when all the cavalry had left the city that it was the turn of Yanhui City's infantry to catch up.
Clearly, Xia Zhengwen's strategy was to use the heavy cavalry to charge at the front and disperse the endless tide of beasts in one fell swoop. The light cavalry would then surround the flanks, and the infantry would then engage in direct combat with the demonic beasts that had been dispersed by the heavy cavalry.
Seeing so many soldiers of the Nine Dragon Empire set out for battle, Lu Xuan took a deep breath and said in a clear voice, "Soldiers of the Nine Eastern Alliance, leave the city and kill the enemy!"
His voice was not loud, but it spread throughout the city and fell into the ears of everyone! The reinforcements of the Nine Eastern Alliance had just arrived in Yanhui City. Some of the less informed warriors did not know that the reinforcements had arrived. Now that they heard this, they became even more excited. A man's name was like a tree's shadow, and this was especially true of the Nine Eastern Alliance!
There was no earth-shattering battle cry, but a dark mass of figures suddenly shot up into the sky from the top of the city walls. They flew past the Nine Dragon Empire's cavalry that had left the city ahead of time and headed straight for the tide of beasts.
Another wave of slightly weaker warriors, who were only at the Spirit Refinement realm, leapt down from the top of the city walls and tumbled down like dumplings. Then, with a light tap of their feet, they leapt dozens of steps forward, ahead of the border army infantry and right behind the Nine Dragon Empire's heavy cavalry.
A heroic aura silently rose up. This kind of battle, compared to the battles in the Jianghu, made people feel more hot-blooded. Everyone felt a surge of energy from the bottom of their hearts. Their bodies were filled with energy, and only by killing the enemy could they vent it. Therefore, everyone fought bravely to be the first!
With such a large movement from the Nine Dragon Empire, how could the demonic beasts outside the city not react? The closest demonic beast was only six hundred feet away from the top of the city walls, and in an instant, they were already engaged in close combat.
The Yanhui Heavy Cavalry, which had cost the Nine Dragon Empire a lot of money to build, fearlessly plunged into the tide of beasts. The spears in their hands shot out like lightning, carrying the force of impact, piercing into the bodies of the demonic beasts like a hot knife through butter, instantly flipping them over. Although the demonic beasts were strong, not all of them could act fiercely in front of these cavalry kings.
Demonic beasts were constantly being killed, and cavalries were constantly falling off their horses. Heavy cavalry was not like light cavalry, who could still turn around and fight again after falling off their horses. The armor on their bodies was extremely heavy, and even wearing it required assistance. Once they fell off their horses, only death awaited them. However, no one was afraid of death. Even when they fell off their horses, they tried their best to move their bodies, not to avoid the demonic beasts' attacks, but to not block the charging path of their comrades behind them.
"Roar!" A deafening roar rang out, and a black tiger suddenly rushed out. In an instant, it knocked over a dozen riders, and after that, it sent a charging rider flying with a swipe of its claw. Its ferocious aura shocked the onlookers.
But before it could make another move, a beam of sword energy shot through the air, piercing through its skull in an instant. Even its corpse was sent tumbling back dozens of feet.
The one who had attacked was an ancestor of the Extreme Monarch Sect, and the technique that had killed the black tiger was the Nine Star Alignment that Lu Xuan had experienced before.
The Nine Eastern Alliance's cultivators protected the Yanhui Heavy Cavalry, and the heavy cavalry cut through the thorns and thorns for the border army's infantry. On the flanks, the light cavalry, who had long since retreated, nocked their bows and arrows. Arrows rained down on the tide of beasts, disrupting their formation. The three of them worked together seamlessly. No matter how ferocious the tide of beasts was, they were still beasts.
