The soldiers on the city walls of Ancient Sand City stared into the distance in fear. They felt as if the sky had fallen when they heard that Ancient Castle City had fallen.
For a time, the people in the city were in a state of panic. Many people had already begun to leave, and those who remained were the people of the city.
Ancient Castle City was a fortress at the border. Once it fell, Ancient Sand City would be like a defenseless girl that would be trampled on by the enemy.
However, as the governor of Ancient Sand City, Sha Wuji was still hoping for luck. The Sha family could not compare to the Liu family, so they could only stay in such a small city. It would be difficult for them to establish themselves in other cities.
In Ancient Sand City, the Sha family was not only the biggest family, but they could also manage the city. Sha Wuji persevered because of this benefit.
He sat on the city walls and looked at the anxious soldiers around him. He said coldly, "Why are you so nervous? Although Ancient Castle City has fallen, they might not come to Ancient Sand City.
Ancient Sand City is just a small city at the border. There are no benefits. If the Heavenly Martial Kingdom's army goes straight to the main city and we fall, we will not suffer any losses. "
"Governor is right. I heard that the Unbreakable General is already on his way back. I believe that with the Unbreakable General around, the Heavenly Martial Kingdom's army will not be able to advance. It would be great if the Unbreakable General could come to Ancient Sand City, "a soldier said hopefully.
"Hmph, don't count on Cheng Bupo. It's useless even if he comes. Ancient Sand City is not like Ancient Castle City. There are only 5,000 soldiers here. It's like throwing an egg against a rock if they want to fight the Heavenly Martial Kingdom's army, "Sha Wuji said coldly.
"Yes, but what if the Heavenly Martial Kingdom's army comes? I heard that there's a kid called Yun Fan among them. He killed three Transcending Mortality Stage cultivators from the Liu family. If he comes, we won't be able to stop him! "
The soldier's words made the other soldiers on the city walls look serious.
All the soldiers' expressions changed when they heard the news. A person who could kill three Transcending Mortality Stage cultivators was not someone they could stop.
On the battlefield, soldiers fought soldiers and generals fought generals. There was not a single person who could deal with the opponent. Moreover, there was a huge disparity in military strength. The result was obvious.
In less than an hour, the name of this Yun Fan had spread throughout the entire Ancient Sand City. The Ancient Sand City looked strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
"Don't tell me you want to surrender? Do you know the consequences of doing this? "
It wasn't that Sha Wuji hadn't thought of surrendering, but once the Shang Wu Nation sent their troops, Cheng Bupo would most likely take back Ancient Sand City. Then, they would be in deep trouble.
The Ancient Sand City was not as powerful as the Ancient Castle City. If the Heavenly Martial Kingdom's army approached, it was highly likely that they would give up on the Ancient Sand City. Compared to Castle City, Ancient Sand City was not even worth mentioning.
"That's not what I meant, I … Ah, they're here. City Lord … "
Before he could finish speaking, Sha Wuji kicked him away and stood up abruptly. He looked at the army that was charging over like a yellow cloud, and his expression changed drastically.
The earth trembled slightly, and everyone's hearts trembled even more violently. That ferocious aura seemed like it could destroy everything.
In front of such an army, Ancient Sand City looked like a child without any hope of success.
Just as Sha Wuji was at a loss as to how to deal with the situation, he saw the great army below the city suddenly stop. Their movements were in perfect unison. The scattered soldiers of Ancient Sand City could not compare to them.
"Who's the general guarding the city? Come out and fight! Do you dare?"
Yun Fan strode forward. His inconspicuous figure immediately became the focus of both sides.
Yun Fan felt a little helpless. He had thought that Ling Gaofeng had some good strategy, but he had not expected him to come out alone.
He had said that he could kill the city lord alone and then slaughter a hundred soldiers. Then, Ancient Sand City would collapse on its own.
If Yun Fan had not seen Ling Nan's military tactics and experience, he would have thought that Ling Gaofeng was spouting nonsense. However, this was indeed a strategy. If it succeeded, it would be more effective than other strategies.
He had asked Ling Gaofeng for help, but he had not expected that in the end, he would have to fight his way out alone. If Ling Gaofeng had come, it would have been the same.
"What's wrong? There are so many people in Ancient Sand City. Are they all cowards? Since the person in charge won't come out, then just send a hundred soldiers. I'll fight you one on one! "
Now that things had come to this, Yun Fan had no other choice. The longer this dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. If something unexpected happened, then all his previous efforts would be in vain.
The title of Champion required him to conquer three cities in a row. He could not lose even one city, nor could he lose too much time. In the truest sense, he only had this one chance.
He could fail, but he did not want to let Ling Xinyue miss her last chance. In a battle between two armies, let alone a hundred, even if there were a thousand, he would not feel the slightest bit guilty.
"Damn it, I can't take it anymore. Who does this kid think he is? He's too arrogant."
"That's right. He's just an Innate Realm cultivator and he's so arrogant. Are the people of Ancient Sand City so easy to bully?"
"Leader Sha, raise your arm. We'll go with you and kill this bastard."
"Yes, yes. Leader Sha, this is a good opportunity. Not only can we boost our morale, we can also level up. Why not? "
The soldiers at the city gate began to shout. Sha ManLin nodded his head and shouted, "Brothers who are not afraid of death, follow me. Don't let others look down on the people of Ancient Sand City."
More than a hundred people against one person, and the opponent was only an Innate Realm kid. With Sha ManLin taking the lead, the soldiers rushed out one after another.
Although the soldiers of Ancient Sand City were not as refined as the soldiers of Ancient Castle City, when they stood together in a square formation, they still had an imposing aura.
The more people followed the crowd, the more courageous they would be. As a branch family disciple of the Sha Family, Sha ManLin looked at Yun Fan with a hint of passion in his eyes.
"Kid, we agreed that you'll fight alone!"
"Don't worry. Even if you kill me, the people behind me won't interfere. The people behind me won't make a move either. Come on! "
Yun Fan naturally understood Sha ManLin's fear. Anyone who fought in front of an army would be affected.
Hearing his words, Sha ManLin revealed a hint of ruthlessness and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Brothers, follow me and kill!"
This was the first time that Yun Fan had seen more than a hundred people charging together. Their imposing aura was like an invisible pressure that enveloped him.
Although he was slightly afraid, it would be good if he could bring out eighty percent of his strength. Unfortunately, their opponent was Yun Fan. He was someone who had persevered for ten years because there was no hope. How could he be scared?
Not only did he not retreat, but he also charged forward. He was bare-handed and did not even draw his sword.
