Just as Shenlang was chasing after the Celestial Master, the Shen Family welcomed a group of uninvited guests.
The Qianwu Empire's army surrounded the entire Forest City. The people of the Qianwu Empire inside the city had already retreated.
A general in armor with a cold expression and exuding an iron-blooded aura waved his hand, and the Qianwu Empire troops stopped in their tracks.
The general looked at the tightly shut city gates of Lin City and sneered. "People inside, listen up. I'm Dongfang Wudi, the General of the North under the Qianwu Emperor. I'm here to suppress the Shen Family under the orders of the Qianwu Emperor."
"Shenlang is the heinous Lord of the Hades who has killed countless people. He's also suspected of murdering the Fourth Princess of the Qianwu Empire, Her Highness Ji Lingxue. Those who have nothing to do with this, quickly leave the city and surrender. If you don't come out within the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, your heads will roll when the city is breached."
As Dongfang Wudi's voice fell, the 100,000 soldiers of the Qianwu Empire shouted, "Kill!!!"
Their killing intent soared to the sky. Even the clouds floating in the sky were scattered a little.
The soldiers of the Qianwu Empire had been exposed to the flames of war. Every one of them carried a faint killing intent. When 100,000 people gathered together, their killing intent soared to the sky.
...
In the Shen Family of Lin City.
Shen Wuming stood on a high platform with a sword in his hand and looked at the crowd below with a serious expression.
If you want to leave, you can leave now. However, I don't want to see those who leave on the battlefield. Otherwise, don't blame me, Shen Wuming, for being ruthless. If Lang-er comes back in the future, I'll explain it to him so that he won't find trouble with you. He won't leave. When this matter is over, the Shen Family will definitely reward him generously. However, I don't want to see those who stay back cower or be afraid. If anyone is afraid or betrays on the battlefield, I, Shen Wuming, swear that I'll exterminate his entire family. "
As Shen Wuming's voice fell, the individual cultivators below who had joined the Shen Family looked at each other. As time passed, only a little more than 100 people left. Most of them stayed.
A burly man with a Zhanmadao said loudly, "Head of the Shen Family, we respect you and are grateful to the Shen Family for taking care of us. Although I, Hu Yong, am not strong, I know how to repay kindness. Regardless of Shen Gongzi's identity, at least Shen treated us individual cultivators with sincerity.
Head of the Shen Family. If I unfortunately die in battle, I Yong Family....... of my life and death, I, Family.... Yong........ Yong. if I.... if I die..... and I......... of my my.... if...........
. "Hu Yong's words ignited the passion of countless people. Those individual cultivators who did not leave shouted," We swear to live and die with the Shen Family. "
Shen Wuming nodded. He clasped his fists and said to the crowd, "Thank you for not leaving. After this, the Shen Family will not treat you unfairly."
"Suzhen, take Shen Qing and the other members of the Shen family into the secret passage first. If we lose, take them and leave through the secret passage. I believe Lang 'er will be the final victor. The Qianwu Empire's attack on our Shen family is just an excuse. They are actually targeting Lang' er. I don't think this matter will be that simple. If it's just the Qianwu Empire, they definitely won't dare to attack us."
Qin Suzhen was not an indecisive person. She nodded and said, "Husband, be careful. If you really can't do it, just leave with us. A temporary retreat does not mean that we won't be able to make a comeback."
Shen Wuming nodded and said, "Don't worry. I know the severity of the situation. If it's impossible, I won't make unnecessary sacrifices."
....
This was a game. It was also a game between Shen Lang and the Temple of Eternal Life, as well as the opposing forces of the Hades. The victory of both sides would determine the ownership of the Zhenwu Continent. No matter what the final result was, the Zhenwu Continent was bound to be reshuffled.
After Shen Wuming arranged everything, he led the Shen Family up the city wall.
The city gate opened slowly. Countless ordinary people rushed out. The Qianwu Empire was not in a hurry to attack. They just waited quietly. No one cared about these innocent people. After all, this was a war. It would be passed down through the ages. If anyone dared to kill at this time, they would go down in infamy for thousands of years.
If they had no choice, it was understandable to kill ordinary people. However, when they had the ability, they would never do something that angered both men and gods.
As the people left, the city gate of Lin City slowly closed. A murderous aura enveloped the entire Lin City.
"Kill!"
Dongfang Wudi waved the long sword in his hand. 100,000 soldiers of the Qianwu Empire rushed toward Lin City in a neat pace.
As the prelude to the war began, dark clouds suddenly covered the sky and shrouded the entire Lin City.
There was a feeling of dark clouds pressing down on the city.
Whoosh!
Arrows covered the sky and shot down from the city wall. Many soldiers of the Qianwu Empire were killed or injured. However, for 100,000 soldiers of the Qianwu Empire, these casualties were just a drop in the bucket. The Shen Family was not a country. They were just a family. Although they had developed in the past few years and had a large number of people, compared to the Qianwu Empire, they were still lacking in numbers.
They only had time to release one wave of arrows before the well-trained soldiers of the Qianwu Empire rushed to the city. Countless ladders were placed on the city wall. The soldiers of the Qianwu Empire began to attack the city.
Shen Wuming's expression did not change. He walked around the city wall and commanded the people to counterattack.
A figure soared into the sky from the city wall. Li Mubai held the Green Lotus Sword and slashed down. In an instant, hundreds of soldiers of the Qianwu Empire were killed.
Li Mubai had already entered the Immortal Martial Realm. The sword Qi that he released was not something that ordinary soldiers could withstand.
"Li Mubai, you call yourself a Sword Immortal in vain. You actually submitted to the devil and killed the innocent. If you turn back now, I can let bygones be bygones." Dongfang Wudi saw Li Mubai attacking and roared furiously.
Li Mubai's expression was cold. He looked at Dongfang Wudi indifferently. "Cut the crap. What is going on in this war? Everyone knows it. We are all people in the game. There is no good or evil. There is only victory and defeat. If you have the time to talk, why don't you draw your sword and fight with me?"
Li Mubai did not wait for Dongfang Wudi to speak. Instantly, a Green Lotus Sword Qi slashed out. The Green Lotuses exploded. Wherever the Green Lotus Sword Qi passed, countless soldiers were killed.
"Li Mubai, your opponent is me." Just as the Sword Qi arrived in front of Dongfang Wudi, a figure charged out from behind him.
That person was wearing the official robe of the Qianwu Empire. There was an Azure Dragon embroidered on the chest. He had a tall and sturdy figure and a cold face.
"Azure Dragon, Zhao Xingwu."
Seeing this person, Li Mubai knew who it was.
It was one of the five commanders of the Qianwu Empire's Embroidered Uniform Guards, Azure Dragon, Zhao Xingwu.
There were three military organizations in the Qianwu Empire. They were the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the East Faction, and the Grand Council.
The Grand Council was in charge of external affairs. The Embroidered Uniform Guards were in charge of intelligence. The East Faction was in charge of protecting the imperial city. The three military organizations had a clear division of labor. They each had their own duties and managed the entire Qianwu Empire in an orderly manner.
