On the boundless water, beside the city, which was being dragged by the starry sky spirit turtles, Yi Ren was standing on a withered branch, floating along with the waves, holding the 'cicada-falling bow', an inherited magic treasure of his family, and shouting loudly with a bland look.
His heart was filled with anxiety.
Within a couple of days, a strong undercurrent had been surging in all Eastern Wasteland clans, especially in Ten Sun Country's army. Within the shortest span of time, Yi Ren and his trusted commanders discovered this unfavorable trend.
Because of Ji Hao's especially powerful spell symbol arrows, Yi Di suddenly became unbelievably attractive. Commanders from all Eastern Wasteland clans and Ten Sun Country's strong army all flocked to Yi Di like flies which sensed the scent of blood.
Some Eastern Wasteland clans, who had always been neutral and never participated in the power struggles in Ten Sun Country, had now all flocked to Yi Di's side.
Spell symbol arrows, everyone wanted Yi Di's spell symbol arrows. Everyone wanted to have spell symbol arrows made by Ji Hao, which were many times more powerful than the ones made by the most powerful Eastern Wasteland arrow-makers.
To Eastern Wasteland people, a well-made, powerful spell symbol arrow could be regarded as a family treasure. An ordinary Eastern Wasteland warrior could exchange his entire family property for a single rune arrow.
A small spell symbol arrow might not be attractive to warriors from Southern Wasteland, Western Wasteland, Northern Wasteland, and Midland. But to Eastern Wasteland warriors, a top-grade spell symbol arrow was as valuable as their family property and their lives.
Yi Ren clearly sensed that these days, those Eastern Wasteland clan elders and commanders, who were close to him, had become evasive and evasive when talking to him, and their eyes had become unfocused. Especially those warriors under their command, they had been running to Yi Di's camp all day long, putting their arms around Yi Di's shoulders and calling each other brothers.
Even the warriors under his direct command, who came from the same bloodline family as him, and who were related to each other, had their hearts wavering. Every day, they would gather together and whisper to each other, and the words' runic arrows' would never leave their mouths.
Before, Yi Di and Yi Ren each had a fifty percent support from Eastern Wasteland people in the city. But because of Ji Hao's arrows, within two to three days, Yi Di's support dropped to seventy percent, while Yi Ren's support dropped to thirty percent.
Afterward, Yi Di abruptly made his move again. He made all kinds of promises, even betrothed his unborn daughter to Ji Hao. He traded a giant amount of rare materials from Eastern Wasteland elders and commanders.
With all kinds of benefits, Yi Ren discovered in a panic that within three days, as Yi Di made a series of promises and connections, the number of Eastern Wasteland clans supporting Yi Di suddenly increased to over eighty percent.
Less than ten percent of the remaining Eastern Wasteland clans had decided to support Yi Di. Some clans seemed to be neutral, but in fact, they were hesitating. Warriors under their commands had still been running to Yi Di's barracks.
This was extremely bad. All Eastern Wasteland warriors in the city were elite warriors sent by Ten Sun Country and Eastern Wasteland clans to Pu Ban City. They were highly influential in Eastern Wasteland clans, and their attitudes could represent the thoughts of at least a big half of their clans.
If the attitudes of these Eastern Wasteland people in the city affected the stance of Eastern Wasteland clans, Yi Di would easily suppress Yi Ren, and become the rightful successor of Ten Sun Country.
Yi Ren's mind was in a mess. He felt that he couldn't let this terrible situation continue.
When he saw Yi Di walk into the headquarters tent once again, seeming to be planning something with Ji Hao, he couldn't help but fly out of the city, stand on the vast water, and shout out loud.
Yi Di was wearing the splendidly glowing swan cloak, holding the thunder running bow, which had been sparkling with thunderbolts. A dazzling spell symbol arrow was stuck in the quiver tied around his waist. Visible, twisted gusts of wind coiled around his body, flashing across the barracks and tents, leaving shreds of afterimages in the air, and gently landing on the water surface, thousands of meters away from Yi Ren.
On the water surface, a withered leaf had been shaking intensely. Yi Di stood on the leaf, shaking intensely as well.
Ji Hao walked out of the headquarters tent, flew up to a watchtower, crossed his arms over his chest, and narrowed his eyes, looking at Yi Di and Yi Ren, who were confronting each other on the water surface.
"Feng Xing, Yi Di and his family have nothing to do with what happened back then. He's one of us now. You stay back and help him! " Ji Hao released his spirit power and soon found Feng Xing, who was standing on another watchtower not far away. Hurriedly, Ji Hao sent his voice to Feng Xing.
Feng Xing narrowed his eyes, glanced at Yi Di and Yi Ren, then slowly nodded and said, "My enemy is Yi Shen's family. They have nothing to do with it. Since Yi Di is one of us … I know what to do. "
Ji Hao waved his hand to Feng Xing and nodded, then turned his attention back to Yi Di and Yi Ren.
Yi Di had two-hundred-thousand elite archers under his command, and their mounts were all iron feather black eagles. Yi Ren's family was slightly stronger than Yi Di's, and the number of elite archers under his command was equal to Yi Di's. However, all mounts were blood-eyed vultures, which were faster than iron feather black eagles, and were much more mobile on battlefields.
In terms of overall strength, archers under Yi Ren's command were slightly stronger than warriors under Yi Di's command.
But now, Ji Hao couldn't help but smile. Yi Di's warriors had already changed their armors, and were now strong enough to crush Yi Ren's warriors.
"Why are you yelling for nothing?" Yi Di landed on the water surface. Relying on the fact that he was two years older than Yi Di, he put on an elder brother face and yelled harshly, "Do you know the military rules? Yelling and yelling like this, if you shake the morale of our army, you will be whipped by Minister Hao Tao … Are you itching for a beating? Do you want to be beaten? "
Yi Ren's face blushed slightly. Glaring at Yi Di, he shouted, "Yi Di, you know what you did!"
Yi Di spread his hands and showed a calm face, "What did I do? Could it be that I've done something shameful? Tell me, tell me, what did I do that made you yell and yell at me like this? "
Yi Ren showed the whites of his eyes and shouted harshly, "You colluded with Ji Hao …"
Yi Di abruptly laughed out loud, interrupting Yi Ren's accusation, "Ridiculous! Marquis Yao Ji Hao is the commander of our army. I have military affairs to report to Lord Ji Hao. This is perfectly reasonable! How dare you say that I 'colluded' with Lord Ji Hao? What do you mean? "
Yi Di suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "You used the word 'colluded' … Are you seeing Marquis Yao Ji Hao as your enemy? Yi Ren, you have bad intentions! You're not loyal! Are you colluding with Gong Gong? Are you trying to start a rebellion? "
A giant black pot smashed down from the sky, immediately throwing Yi Ren into a panic.
He glanced at Yi Di, then abruptly pulled out an arrow. Crack! He broke the arrow and threw it heavily on the ground.
"Yi Di, I swear on this broken arrow that I will bet my life against you!"
