Yun Meng Xin knew what Li Xiao Xue was talking about. Back then, she had purposefully revealed her face in front of Winter of That Year and Hundred Miles of Ice so that they would fall head over heels for her and agree to keep the new city's secret. However, what surprised her was that not only did Winter of That Year promise not to tell anyone about the new city's secret, but he even offered to stay in the Cyan Forest Town to protect the new city. What surprised her even more was that Winter of That Year was so powerful that he could easily defeat Cang Yan.
It was just that there were some things …
There was no night in the Mystic Moon world. Even though it was midnight in the real world, the sun was still blazing in the sky. As the battle became more and more intense, under the bright sunlight, the region in front of the new city looked like boiling water. Both sides started to kill until their eyes were bloodshot. They didn't know how long they had been killing for, and they had even forgotten why they had come here. The only thought in their minds was to kill everyone in front of them, and the ear-piercing orders were drowned out by the deafening shouts.
Within the chaotic battle, corpses piled up at a shocking rate. As the battle continued, the nervousness in everyone's hearts was replaced by ferocity and passion. They gave up on retreating and evading, and used the most direct and ferocious methods to attack any enemy in front of them. As such, corpses piled up faster and faster, far surpassing the speed at which corpses could be revived.
Even more people chose to stay where they were after they died, staring at the person who killed them. They wanted to remember all the characteristics of this person. Only when they saw that the person who killed them also died on the spot would they happily leave. Corpses gradually filled the battlefield, but the killing did not stop.
More and more equipment piled up on the ground, but not a single person picked them up.
Throughout Hua Xia's history, there were very few battles involving millions of players. However, in the virtual world, it was incredibly easy to gather teams, and everyone could hear a call in the guild channel at the same time. It was the same for teams – no matter how far away they were, they could instantly teleport there with a teleport scroll. As such, in the virtual world, although battles involving millions of players weren't common, they weren't rare at all. Once a battle of this scale became white-hot, it wouldn't be any less intense than a large-scale battle in the real world.
The Yan Huang Alliance's army had already started to advance, and the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan, who had been under immense pressure from the beginning, didn't even have the strength to breathe. The Yan Huang Alliance's pincer attack had now become a pincer attack from all sides, completely blocking off the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan's paths of retreat. They could neither advance nor retreat. With this formation, if the Yan Huang Alliance attacked the new city, the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan wouldn't be able to stop them at all. However, not a single person attacked the new city, and they instead slaughtered the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan. This was because the Yan Huang Alliance's Alliance Master had ordered … that before destroying the city, there would be a massacre!
The Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan players knew that they wouldn't be able to escape, and their eyes were bloodshot. As the situation became more and more desperate, they didn't feel any fear at all. No matter if they were male or female, all of them gave off a vicious aura as they recklessly charged at the Yan Huang Alliance's people. Since they were going to die, they wanted to take at least one of them down with them.
If this was the real world, the green grass would have long been dyed red with blood, and countless streams of blood would have formed. The dense smell of blood filled the air.
In the north, the guilds that had been biding their time did not move, and none of them moved. The deafening battle cries continued for more than an hour, causing them to almost go deaf. However, not a single one of them became numb because they had seen or heard it for so long … every second of that horrifying battle shook their hearts. They didn't expect that what was supposed to be an unstoppable siege would turn into such a situation. If Long Tian Yun had directly ordered the Yan Huang Alliance to attack, the new city would have already been destroyed. However, the slaughter continued, and the new city, which should have been the main character, was completely fine, as if it had been forgotten.
"The Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan are both like arrows at the end of their flight. It's such a pity," a guild leader said in a low voice as he shook his head. The Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan had evidently sent out all of their forces. What did it mean for all of their players to lose levels and equipment? This would be a massive blow to their foundations, and after this battle, it was possible that the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan would not be able to recover. To the Yan Huang Alliance, this kind of loss would only be a superficial wound.
"They clearly know that the enemy is the Yan Huang Alliance, yet they still sent out all of their forces to defend. Isn't this the same as committing suicide? The Snow Moon Loulan isn't too bad – even if they disband, they won't be able to harm Li Xiao Xue. However, the Disillusion Alliance isn't so simple. "
"When do we act?"
"Of course when the Yan Huang Alliance starts to destroy the city. We'll help the Yan Huang Alliance destroy the city. After that … whoever gets the City Creation Token will depend on their own abilities. As for now, it's best if no one moves. If anyone moves now, the Sword Emperor's aggro will be shifted to them … "
Speaking to there, the 10 or so leaders of the guilds all shivered, and couldn't help but look at where the Sword Emperor was … an hour had passed, and the Sword Emperor was still wreaking havoc in the Yan Huang Alliance's rear, killing gods and buddhas alike. She only had 5 swords by her side and no allies, yet she was still alive in the midst of so many enemies. This was because no one could get close to her alive.
Chi, chi, chi, chi, chi …
The 4 flying swords were like a meat grinder, instantly cutting off the lives of 10 or so Yan Huang Alliance players. Seeing the Sword Emperor approach, the surrounding players didn't even have the slightest will to resist, and all of them retreated in fear. At this moment, the charging Sword Emperor suddenly slowed down. Her body swayed unnaturally as she stumbled forwards 2 steps and knelt on the ground on one knee. Only with the support of her [Flying Red Glow Flowing Shadow] did she not completely fall down. The 4 silver swords around her also powerlessly fell to the ground.
As the surrounding players stared in shock, a massive grey shadow appeared beside the Sword Emperor. The Sword Emperor stabbed her sword into the ground as she leapt onto the Lightning Falcon's back. The Lightning Falcon gave a long cry as it flew into the air.
In the distance, Long Tian Yun put down his binoculars and picked up his communication device as he said in a low voice, "All Marksmen, raise your heads and focus your attacks on that grey bird!"
In order to receive orders while in battle, everyone's communication devices were on. Long Tian Yun's voice was immediately transmitted to all of the Marksmen's ears. They all raised their heads, and all of the Marksmen who saw the grey shadow immediately raised their hands and shot at it.
In an instant, tens of thousands of arrows were shot out. Marksmen were skilled at dealing with enemies in the air. Before the Lightning Falcon reached its highest altitude, it was suddenly met with a massive rain of arrows. It spread its wings, protecting its owner on its back as it endured the arrows. Just as it was about to reach a safe altitude, it couldn't hold on any longer, and its HP was depleted. It fell from the sky and turned into a grey light as it returned to the Sword Emperor's Pet Dimension.
The Sword Emperor's body floated in the air, and a second wave of arrows shot towards her. Without the Lightning Falcon, even though she was the Sword Emperor, she couldn't move in the air. As such, she could only fall towards the arrows that were more than enough to kill her.
In this sort of situation, unless she had heaven-defying HP or Defense, she would definitely die. However, in the end, the Sword Emperor was the Sword Emperor. Even though she was exhausted, she wasn't someone these normal players could kill. She suddenly swung her [Flying Red Clouds Flowing Shadow], then quickly stopped and hovered next to her feet. The Sword Emperor stepped on the hilt of the sword and used the momentum to jump high into the air, leaving the arrows outside of range and causing the rain of arrows to miss. Following this, the [Flying Red Clouds Flowing Shadow] flew up on its own, dragging the Sword Emperor's feet as it flew towards the south. No matter if it was speed or altitude, it caused the Yan Huang Alliance's players to stare in shock. Flying on a sword was something that could only be seen in Xianxia movies, and yet it was happening right in front of their eyes.
Seeing the Sword Emperor fly away, Long Tian Yun coldly harrumphed and threw the binoculars in his hands to the ground. Cang Yan didn't say anything as he hurriedly took out a new one and handed it to Long Tian Yun.
"Xiao Xue, how many people do we have left?" Yun Meng Xin did her best to remain calm, but her voice still trembled.
Li Xiao Xue fell silent for a moment before sighing as she replied, "The Disillusion Alliance has already lost 60,000 people, and the Snow Moon Loulan has lost 38,000 people … the rate of death is continuously increasing."
The Yan Huang Alliance's death toll was no less than that of the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan. However, while the Yan Huang Alliance could afford to die, the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan couldn't. The Yan Huang Alliance was getting closer and closer to their target, while the Disillusion Alliance and Snow Moon Loulan were falling deeper and deeper into the abyss. The more people died, the faster they died. Originally, it should have been two people facing off against 20 people from the Yan Huang Alliance. Now, it was one person facing off against 19 people, and the rate of death was increasing exponentially.
Yun Meng Xin's body swayed as her voice became light, "Is there … any news of Ling Tian?"
"… No. Tian Tian has been by Ling Tian's side this entire time. If he wakes up, he'll tell me immediately. "
Yun Meng Xin looked up at the sky, unable to bear to look at the intense battlefield. She muttered in a daze, "Xiao Xue, do you think I was wrong? You told me that Ling Tian wouldn't appear, but I … I've been betting on him coming back, and because of this, I've dragged big brother and your Snow Moon Loulan into this. However, now … we can't protect the new city, and I've dragged you and big brother into this. I … "
"No, of course you weren't wrong," Li Xiao Xue smiled as she shook her head, "If I were you, I would do the same thing. The new city is something that we have to protect. Even if there's only a one in a billion chance, as long as it exists, we have to do everything we can to make it bloom. Meng Xin, you did the right thing. Not only did you do the right thing, you did the right thing … oh? "
As she spoke, Li Xiao Xue looked at the sky in surprise. She immediately saw the Sword Emperor flying over on her sword.
Under the guidance of [Soaring Clouds Flowing Shadow], the Sword Emperor flew south, leaving the battlefield and arriving above Li Xiao Xue and Yun Meng Xin. The originally unstable [Soaring Clouds Flowing Shadow] started to sway, and it couldn't hold on any longer. It fell from the sky with the Sword Emperor.
Putong …
[Soaring Clouds Flowing Shadow] powerlessly fell to the ground. The Sword Emperor heavily fell to the ground, but immediately got up. She looked around, and after seeing that there was only Li Xiao Xue, Yun Meng Xin and Mu Bing Yao, she finally relaxed. She leaned against the wall of vines behind her, and didn't move at all. Only her chest heaved up and down.
Long Tian Yun's predictions were correct. Controlling 5 swords at the same time required a massive amount of mental energy. Just then, she had reached her limit. After the Lightning Falcon had died, she had used the last of her sword intent to support [Soaring Clouds Flowing Shadow] to bring her here. If she hadn't left in time, perhaps she really would have died there. However, in her current state, she wouldn't be able to fight as intensely for a long time.
