What she could do was to guard Xuanhuang Castle. She was the wife of the castellan. In the absence of Yi Tianxing, she was the backbone of the city. As long as she was there, the city would not be in chaos. Besides, Huang Chengyan and the others were in charge of all kinds of things. She could definitely stabilize the people. What she needed to do was to make sure that Yi Tianxing would not have any worries.
Only by stabilizing the morale of the army and the people could Yi Tianxing do whatever he wanted without any scruples.
Cai Yanlan was intelligent and well-educated. She had been nurtured by her father since she was young, and her talent could be said to be one of the few in the world of women. Now, she was the wife of the castellan of Xuanhuang Castle in this chaotic world. She had unknowingly cultivated an air of elegance.
Her vision also became broader.
It was not that she had no attachment to her husband. When she heard that Yi Tianxing was being attacked by the foreign tribes, she also wanted to fly to his side and face all the difficulties and obstacles together. But her rationality and responsibility told her that staying in Xuanhuang Castle was the best way to help Yi Tianxing.
"She has the air of a motherly model."
Huang Chengyan once said this to Lu Shi when he was talking to him.
"As the mistress of Xuanhuang Castle and the prosperity of the human race."
Lu Shi also praised her.
If she only cared about love and would only disregard everything for the sake of love, she might seem infatuated, but in reality, such a woman would only be a story that would be passed down for a time. As a matriarch, such an action would only bring misfortune to countless commoners. A woman who was completely irresponsible was not suitable to be a mistress.
Under Cai Yan's signal, Huang Chengyan and the others discussed and confirmed it. Immediately, the entire Xuanhuang Castle, the surrounding areas, the major towns, and villages began to spread the news that the army had returned and set foot on their way back, fighting fiercely with the surrounding foreign tribes and advancing forward while bathed in blood.
All kinds of news kept spreading.
Furthermore, he openly announced the reason for this battle and its significance to the human race.
Once these news were spread. Immediately, there was a burst of uproar. Countless people could not help but be agitated.
That was why there were those angry roars earlier.
All of them wished that they could head to the battlefield on the spot to join the army and fight together. Blood dyed the ground and corpses littered the battlefield. However, most of them were dissuaded. However, all of them were paying close attention to the development of the battle.
He was afraid that something bad would happen to him.
Furthermore, he wanted to know what had happened on the way back.
"There's news, there's news. The clairvoyant Gao Xiaojing sent a message. "
"On the way back with the army, the city lord was ambushed by the non-humankind's poisonous magic, causing a poisonous rain to fall from the sky. The City Lord used his own strength to forcefully devour all of the poisonous rain and absorb it all. Even the poisonous clouds in the sky were devoured and refined. The mastermind of the Poison Spirit Clan was revealed. In the blink of an eye, the three poison masters were killed by the City Lord's divine arrows. Every arrow killed them. "
"That's great, that's great. My lord's archery skills are superb and not inferior to any godly archer in the past and present. Three arrows in one bow definitely won't go wrong. It's a good kill. We absolutely cannot show mercy to these foreign races. To think that they poisoned us. Indeed, they are despicable and shameless, using all sorts of methods. They have no bottom line. "
.....
When Gao Xiao Jing's news spread, countless people in the Xuanhuang City and the other towns and villages immediately let out joyful laughter. For a time, they were overjoyed. Many people went to restaurants and drank to their hearts' content, hating that they could not experience it for themselves.
"Report! There's news. On the fourth day of the City Lord's return: The Jackal Men attacked. As they fought, ice and snow filled the sky. The Jackal Men gathered more than one hundred thousand soldiers. More than one million ferocious wolves gathered in the surrounding areas. They crazily killed the City Lord and the soldiers. There are many wolves everywhere. They have already surrounded the City Lord and the army in a plain. "
"The battle is very intense. There are simply too many ferocious wolves in the wolf pack. Wolves are everywhere. However, our Xuanhuang Castle's arrow formation is not to be trifled with. The Divine Strategy Battalion's arrows rained down endlessly. Countless ferocious wolves fell on the battlefield. Blood already dyed the ground red, and the green grass turned scarlet. When the wolves fight, they don't care about life and death. They just keep on attacking. "
"The City Lord did not choose to stay where he was and instead chose to kill as he moved. General Wang led 10,000 soldiers on the outside, while the spearmen were in front. Swords and shields on both sides. Inside the Divine Strategy Battalion: The crossbow bolts were like rain, advancing like the wind. Wherever he went, corpses were strewn everywhere. “
.....
The images captured by the All-Seeing Eye were instantly transmitted to the Xuanhuang City and the Human Clan's territory. With the teleportation formation, the transmission of all kinds of information was incomparably convenient and fast. What they saw immediately spread in all directions.
"It's too tragic, but why do I have an urge to throw myself into it? I can't wait to raise my saber and charge around the battlefield. "
As Gao Xiaojing stood on the back of the goshawk, he watched the intense battle in the distance. The blood in his chest also surged involuntarily. He wished he could charge out immediately. When he saw soldiers injured in the battle, he also felt horrified. When he saw soldiers dying in battle, he also felt grief.
Those wolves were simply too terrifying.
The vast wolf pack kept a close eye on the army, not giving them a chance to catch their breath. As long as the army revealed an opening, they would immediately attack. They were extremely ferocious. Everywhere they went, they would fight to the death. Furthermore, when they fought, they would only retreat when they felt that they could not defeat their enemies or that their race was on the verge of extinction. Otherwise, they would fight to the death.
Now, it was time to verify this point.
Even as the army moved forward, these wolf packs kept surging over. The strangest thing was that when the Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation was activated, all the wolf packs would strangely stop attacking, not daring to approach at all. Not to mention entering the formation, they would just surround it. They would surround it tightly.
Although the Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation was strong, if these fellows didn't go in, then there was nothing they could do.
Once the formation was undone, these wolves would immediately pounce over. They were like rotting corpses. It was impossible to defend against. They didn't seem to mind at all. It was extremely terrifying. It was extremely difficult to deal with them.
Without a doubt, the actions of the wolf pack were controlled by the alien races. The Werewolves and Gnolls mixed in with the wolves were the main culprits.
It was obvious that the wolf pack was driven over by them.
"On the fifth day, the City Lord was still fighting with the wolf pack …"
"On the sixth day, more than half of the wolf pack was slaughtered. A Dark Elf attacked from the dark, stabbing at the City Lord's throat with a sword. However, when it attacked, it was killed by the Yin Yang Mirror."
.....
The battle continued. Every day, there were all sorts of sneak attacks, assassinations, and all sorts of sinister methods.
The ground turned into a swamp, and poisonous gas covered the sky. Suddenly, a raging flame swept over. As they walked, suddenly, many hideous spikes appeared from the ground. All sorts of attacks came one after another.
Every day, the soldiers in the army were dying. Some were injured and couldn't fight anymore. They were kept in the pagoda, and some died on the spot. Their blood stained the ground. But the price paid by the alien races was even greater. Every mile of the road was filled with corpses.
However. In the end, on the ninth day of the battle.
The alien army that was like a swarm of locusts suddenly disappeared.
Hugo Village!!
Outside Hugo Village, one could see an army of a hundred thousand soldiers camped outside the village. Each of the soldiers exuded a strong murderous aura of iron and blood. It gave people a formless pressure. In every corner, there were soldiers stationed and guarding.
Woo woo woo!!
Dong dong dong!!
Suddenly, the sound of horns and war drums rang out at the same time.
"Assemble the army!!"
An order was given in an instant.
The soldiers who were patrolling or training in the camp all stepped out of the camp. They gathered in formation in the shortest time possible.
Yang Ye, dressed in black armor, had a blade at his waist and a spear in his hand. He stood at the front of the army.
He didn't say anything. He just looked at the road that Yi Tianxing and the others opened when they left. He looked at the end of the road with excitement and anticipation.
Boom boom boom!!
The ground rumbled. Suddenly, one could see a layer of blood light at the end of the road. Orderly and dull footsteps. In the blood light, a figure wearing a black robe appeared in sight. His slender body gave off a murderous aura.
Behind him, the orderly army slowly stepped out. Every step. Every step was firm and powerful.
"It's the City Lord."
"It's the army of Xuanhuang Castle. They … have returned. "
"What a shocking aura. I can feel a thick murderous aura sweeping over, making people feel suffocated on the spot. What a terrifying aura. This is the aura of killing a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. "
"Look at their armor. It's full of scars. All of them are covered in blood. "
"These are heroes. They are fighting for the human race. They bled for the human race. They used their blood and lives to fight for their dignity."
In Hugo Village, a large number of people stood on the city wall and watched the army coming back step by step. Looking at the broken armor and even the mutilated body, shock rose in his heart. He clearly understood exactly what kind of terrifying battle they had encountered before.
There were beast claws, blade marks, and cracks from heavy bombardment. From this, it could be seen how intense the battles they had experienced were.
"Welcome back, Master. Welcome back … Welcome back!!"
Yang Ye saluted solemnly at the end of the road.
"Welcome back, Master. Welcome back … Welcome back!!"
100,000 soldiers shouted at the same time. Their voices were passionate and their eyes were filled with envy and admiration.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Amidst the shouts, the army approached step by step.
Looking closely, there were only 13,000 survivors left of the 20,000-strong army. More than 6,000 elite soldiers had fallen.
The soldiers carried stretchers in their hands.
