Ye Tianze led three of the best hunters of the Futian Clan to the Vermilion Bird Legion after fighting their way out of the beast tide.
The spiritual beasts also surrounded the Rosefinch Army, but they didn't attack the Rosefinch Army like they did in Tian Nan City.
Zhu Que held the Blade of Zhu Que and sat in the center of the camp. Facing hundreds of thousands of spiritual beasts, the soldiers of the Rosefinch Army didn't show any signs of fear.
Through the countless spiritual beasts, they witnessed a massacre. However, it wasn't the spiritual beasts that were slaughtering them, but the soldiers of Tian Nan City.
Shouts of killing filled the air around Tian Nan City. The light of spiritual energy was more dazzling than the sun in the sky. Those who didn't know would think that it was fireworks.
The spiritual beasts that entered Tian Nan City were completely suppressed by the array. Only now did the people of the Rosefinch Army realize how powerful the array was.
But what really shocked them were the people of the Futian Clan. They formed teams of three and fought among the spiritual beasts.
Some of the spiritual beasts had higher cultivation levels than the people of the Futian Clan, but when they faced the people of the Futian Clan, they felt as if they were children wielding swords against adults.
"What an exquisite hunting technique. This is … this is amazing!"
"No wonder they are the number one titled clan in the world. No wonder they have the powerful bloodline that can hunt down the Wu people. They are worthy of this title!"
Those who were able to escape from Zhu Que City were all veterans of the Rosefinch Army. It was harder to earn the respect of these veterans than to reach the heavens.
But now, the Futian Clan's hunting technique made them gasp in amazement. They didn't hesitate to praise it.
"If this continues, the spiritual beasts will all die!" one of the veterans said.
"That's not necessarily true. Although these spiritual beasts are enraged, they are only attacking the low-level spiritual beasts. The high-level spiritual beasts haven't even attacked yet!"
"If this continues, no matter how strong they are, the experts of the Futian Clan will not be able to hold on. They are humans, and humans will get tired!"
No one knew better than them what a war of attrition was. Among the Spirit Beasts in the Beast Tide, other than the High Rank Spirit Beasts, the Spirit Beasts below the Seventh Rank did not have a will of their own. They were a group of powerful walking corpses.
"No, they are taking turns to fight!"
"That's right, it's a battle of attrition, continuously taking over. When they are tired, they will return to the city to replenish their energy. If this continues, I'm afraid they will really be able to hold on.
They quickly discovered that after fighting for more than an hour, the people of the Futian Clan would immediately leave the battlefield without any hesitation.
They fought and retreated at the same time. Whenever the spirit beasts prepared to chase after them, a new hunting team would come out from the city and replace them, continuing to fight with the spirit beasts.
As for the South Sky City army, they suffered heavy losses. As soon as they left the city, they either had their heads bitten off by the spirit beasts in panic or were directly trampled into meat paste by the spirit beasts. They had no idea how to fight at all.
Even if some of them adapted and held on with their battle experience, they were quickly exhausted. Most importantly, they were a sheet of loose sand.
If it were not for the help of the people of the Futian Clan, their casualties would have increased tenfold.
On the top of the South Sky City, Zhao Mingli, who was watching this scene, finally understood why Ye Tianze dared to leave without worry. With such a group of warriors, if it were him, he would have sat in the Temple of the Gods long ago to drink tea and count the Spirit Beasts' Dans.
The people of South Sky City were also shocked. Apart from the people of South Sky City, the captives were also stunned by this scene.
They were outnumbered, and under the situation where there was a clear difference in strength, they were able to achieve such a result. This made them feel like they were dreaming!
Moreover, they had never seen such a fierce way of fighting. In addition to the fierceness, there were also countless details.
"These … guys … are they … human?" Gong Yaping stood in the crowd. She originally thought that this was her last day alive.
But she suddenly realized that this was not the case. Compared to the flashy martial arts that they learned in the past, the skills of the Futian Clan were incomparably practical.
Some of them even looked extremely sinister and not beautiful at all. But at this moment, Gong Yaping, other than being shocked, also felt a trace of security in her heart!
"This … should … be … a … real … warrior." The captives had been mining for a long time. They hated Ye Tianze to the bone, let alone South Sky City.
But this time, these disciples of noble sects were impressed by the scene in front of them.
If it were them, they would not be able to compete with the elders of South Sky City in this kind of battle. They finally understood that sometimes, the level of cultivation did not represent true strength!
Gong Yaping suddenly turned her head and secretly looked at the man standing beside Zhao Mingli in the distance. A long time ago, she hated this man.
She was the young miss of the Gong Clan, and the man in front of her was more like an uncivilized savage. Even though he had expressed his goodwill countless times, Gong Yaping had never been moved. Instead, she hated him even more and took his goodwill for granted.
When Gong Yaping couldn't take it anymore, she even treated this man as a servant in her heart. Only in this way could she order him around and not feel disgusted by him.
Even when she was sent to the mines, she never gave up on this idea. She still believed that she would return to the Gong Clan. No matter what happened in South Sky City, they could not do anything to her, let alone take her life.
Until today, when she followed the captives of the Three Sects, Seven Schools, and the Four Aristocratic Clans to the top of the city, she realized that everything was over.
South Sky City would be completely burned to the ground by the Beast Tide. She would also be trampled into meat paste. Even if her family's ancestor came to save her, it would be useless.
However, what she believed didn't happen. She saw the people she once regarded as savages, the people she loathed, facing these spirit beasts without the slightest bit of fear. They killed their way out of the city.
For a moment, Gong Yaping thought that not only were these people uncivilized, but they were also mentally retarded. If this continued, wouldn't they be sending themselves to their deaths?
But reality slapped her in the face once again. When these people fought against spirit beasts several times their number, they achieved miraculous results. She finally understood that she was wrong, very wrong!
In that moment, she looked at Tang Tianjun and suddenly realized that all her brothers and senior brothers she once admired were nothing compared to the man in front of her.
"If it were my brothers, if it were … Dugu Moyu … they … they would probably be trembling in fear!" Gong Yaping thought to herself.
And the man who liked her was the young master of this group of valiant warriors. Although he didn't make a move, Gong Yaping already knew of her achievements. This was someone who had killed an Immortal Realm expert of the Demon Clan in the King Realm!
It was this kind of man who once humbly tried to curry favor with her, hoping that in this strange environment, he could give her … even a trace of security!
Thinking of the words she said on the city wall, Gong Yaping suddenly felt a little guilty.
Especially when she saw Zhao Mingli being pressed down on the city wall, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. Compared to Zhao Mingli, what did she count for?
In South Sky City, the only person who cared about her was the one who humbly tried to curry favor with her. But this person had been humiliated black and blue by her.
She wanted to walk over and apologize. It wasn't because she was afraid, and it wasn't because she suddenly had a good impression and worship.
It was because of the purest guilt in her heart!
Zhu Que's gaze was fixed on the changes in the situation on the city wall. When Ye Tianze rushed over, Zhu Que said, "This move of yours is really wonderful. After this time, I'm afraid that the female cultivators of the Three Sects, Seven Schools, and Four Great Families will be dead set on South Sky City."
When Ye Tianze heard this, his face was full of innocence. "What do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Don't you understand?" Zhu Que glared at him in annoyance. "To be a matchmaker like you, it's really a blessing from their past lives."
Ye Tianze finally understood. He bitterly smiled and said, "You're talking about those captives. You're wrong. I didn't think of being a matchmaker at this time. I pushed them onto the city wall purely because I was afraid that after the city was breached, it would cause too much damage."
"You're … you're planning to … throw them down to feed the spirit beasts before the city is breached?" Zhu Que was startled.
"It's still you who understands me. These guys aren't good at mining and still eat so much. Raising them is simply a waste of my South Sky City's resources. It's better … to die." Ye Tianze said with a smile.
"You're wrong. The more I don't understand you, the more I don't understand you." Zhu Que said.
From Zhu Que's point of view, although Ye Tianze killed decisively, he wasn't that cold. But now she discovered that Ye Tianze was much colder than she imagined.
Ye Tianze felt her feelings and said, "Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. I don't want to let the people I protect suffer the consequences of my wrong decision. Not now, not in the future!"
Zhu Que was stunned for a moment. She put away the trace of gratitude in her heart and asked, "When will the Rosefinch Army make a move?"
"Who said anything about making a move? I came here to ask you to accompany me to Cangwu Mountain. It's said that the Futian Clan found an ancient city there!" Ye Tianze said, "It's very likely that the spirit beast horde started because of this ancient city."
"There's such a thing? I've been in the Southern Territory for so many years, but I've never heard anyone mention an ancient city. "Zhu Que said.
"Even you don't know?" Ye Tianze said, "Then it's even more worth exploring."
"What will happen to South Sky City if you leave?" Zhu Que said worriedly.
"Even if I don't leave, it won't change anything. If these millions of spirit beasts insist on fighting to the death with my South Sky City …" Ye Tianze said, "Even if you pull in your Rosefinch Army, you won't be able to win. You should know that very well."
"Then …"
