Zhao Xingshu and the Li brothers led the army and charged towards Empress Xiao.
They were not trying to save Wei by besieging Wei. They really wanted to destroy the coffin of Emperor Yang of Sui.
Empress Xiao's pale face was frosty. She said angrily, "A bunch of traitors. You won't even let go of His Majesty's coffin and true spirit. You deserve to be executed!"
A circle of cold air spread out and covered the area around Empress Xiao. The area with a radius of about ten meters was dyed silvery white, as if it was covered with a layer of frost.
Zhao Xingshu rode his horse into the area of frost and snow, but he suddenly stopped! The layer of black gas on the Black Qi Warhorse under him quickly dissipated! The Black Qi Warhorse, which could be described as majestic, fell down with a sad neigh.
Zhao Xingshu hurriedly jumped back and rolled away, leaving the silvery-white area of frost and snow. He looked at the snow-covered area with a radius of ten meters in surprise. "This is …"
Empress Xiao's voice was cold and solemn. "Zhao Xingshu! I am no longer the weak woman who was bullied by all of you. If you dare to step within ten steps of His Majesty, your demonic energy will automatically dissipate and you will become an ordinary corpse. "
Zhao Xingshu was surprised and doubtful. He did not know whether he should believe Empress Xiao.
Bai Xiaowen, however, believed her without a doubt. Empress Xiao and Yang Guang's true spirits followed him, a Daoist cultivator whom they did not know, into Jiangdu City, which was full of enemies. If they did not even have the ability to protect themselves, how could it be possible?
This was also the reason why Bai Xiaowen did not care about the demon army besieging Wei to save Zhao. He fought as he should and was not affected by the enemy's plan.
Zhao Xingshu thought about it and still did not dare to enter personally. He pointed at a demon soldier. "You, go in! Bring out the coffin of His Majesty! "
Although that demon soldier lacked intelligence in his demon state, he only refused to communicate with living people. It did not mean that he did not have fear, excitement, and other consciousness and emotions.
He certainly did not want to step into such an obvious trap. Just like how wild beasts instinctively feared fire, the daemon soldiers would also feel fear in their hearts when faced with the pure white snow.
Seeing that the demon soldier was unwilling to step forward, Zhao Xingshu snorted. He grabbed the demon soldier's chest armor with one hand and threw it into the snowy area.
With a plop, the demon soldier rolled twice in the snowy region before getting up. At first, he was stunned. Then, the black gas surrounding his body was completely absorbed. It was as if there was an invisible range hood running at full power above his head.
"Ahhhhh …"
The Fiendish Demon soldiers howled to the sky in extreme pain. His demon form was quickly removed, and he fell to the ground with a loud crash, turning into the corpse of an ordinary human soldier.
Everything was as Empress Xiao had said.
Even Bai Xiaowen, who had been mentally prepared, felt his eyelids twitch. What was the origin of this frost and snow area? It could actually kill a demon so efficiently.
Although Bai Xiaowen was in the midst of a tense battle, he still had the mind to think and deduce. When he had the ability to multitask, this kind of multitasking was as natural as breathing for a normal person. There was no need for extra effort.
[The Black Aura Warhorse and this demon soldier seemed to have been drained of their black aura … Combined with Empress Xiao's words, the black aura should refer to demonic aura.]
[You can think of the demonic aura as the source of the demonization of the rebel army in Jiang Capital. Then, after Empress Xiao died, it was very likely that she had mastered a method to devour … No, 'purify' demonic aura! It was precisely because of this that she was able to guard Yang Guang's lonely grave in the mass grave and prevent the demons of Jiang Capital from invading. This was because Empress Xiao's purification domain was the natural nemesis of the demons. Therefore, the demons needed to borrow the help of outsiders.]
When Bai Xiaowen thought of this, he further speculated:
[Since Empress Xiao is the nemesis of the demons, why didn't she take the initiative to go to Jiang Capital and eliminate the Ten Thieves? Why did she also borrow the power of outsiders?]
After thinking about it, there was only one word for the answer: exhaustion.
Although Bai Xiaowen couldn't see through it, he knew that Empress Xiao's Frost and Snow Domain was definitely not without exhaustion. Just like how a range hood would malfunction after a long time, there must be a limit to how much the Frost and Snow Domain could purify demons! Perhaps the first batch of demons would be purified, but a new batch of demons would not be purified in a short period of time.
This could explain the delicate balance between Empress Xiao and the rebel army.
The demon rebel army did not dare to rashly enter the mass grave, and Empress Xiao did not dare to go to Jiang Capital alone. If the demon army was forced into a corner and fought with Empress Xiao, it was hard to say how many batches of demons Empress Xiao could purify.
However, right now, Empress Xiao's Frost and Snow Domain was more than enough to hold Zhao Xingshu back and prevent him from advancing.
Bai Xiaowen felt that it was a pity. He wanted Zhao Xingshu to force out more of Empress Xiao's trump cards so that he could figure out the upper limit of this fallen queen's strength.
Although it was a pity, Bai Xiaowen did not stay idle. After using Dark Whisk to deal with Vicious Poison Evil Ghost Zhang Kai, he immediately commanded the skeleton army to advance.
As for the high level infantry, the zombie commander Sima Dekan, Fatty was playing a game of running in circles with him. No matter how Sima Dekan ran, under the decaying field of the poison and Bai Xiaowen's Ice Shards, he could not get around Butcher's blockade.
Sima Dekan's zombie body only had a high resistance to physical damage, but it was useless against magical damage. Bai Xiaowen knew this, so he specifically targeted Fatty's poison gas and his ice magic. Both were magical damage and did not receive any resistance.
The Necromancer's Lightning Strike even had the bonus of Evil Break.
When Sima Dekan fell, the demon army's morale completely collapsed.
Zhao Xingshu and the Li brothers saw that the situation was not good and immediately led their troops to escape.
As for Ghost Rider Meng Jing, he was not so lucky. He was entangled by Li Shuyi and the Death Knight. He did not even have a chance to escape.
In the end, the battle that took a long time ended with the complete victory of the White Phoenix team! Although a few demon commanders escaped, it did not matter.
"Chase! Don't let Zhao Xingshu and the others escape back to Wanxiang Palace. If they join forces with Yuwen Huaji, it will be very troublesome. "
In this battle, Yuwen Huaji and his brother did not appear. In addition, Pei Qiantong, who Empress Xiao mentioned, was also nowhere to be seen.
The formation of the Jiangdu rebel army was already grand enough. At the beginning, there were four demon commanders leading hundreds of demon soldiers to fight. Zhao Xingshu and two other troops were lying in ambush on the flanks. The total number of people was close to a thousand! With such a formation, wouldn't it be more than enough to take down two or three enemies?
The demon commanders in Jiangdu were not monolithic. For example, Sima Dekan, who led the former Xiao Guo army, and the Li brothers, who led the former emperor's personal army, were not on the same side. Especially the general-type demons, they all had their own plans. They all wanted to preserve the strength of their own demon army.
This was also why they did not participate in the first battle. Other than underestimating the enemy, it was also because they were suspicious of each other.
