As soon as the order was given, the ten thousand troops in the sky panicked. The equipment of the local forces was no match for the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards. Not to mention, the enemy had the absolute advantage in numbers. There was no way for them to win this battle.
Even though some of the troops were from the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards, they were still the minority. They were helpless against the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards. They knew all too well how powerful the combined attack of tens of thousands of Transcendence Archers was. Just a few hundred Transcendence Archers in their hands wouldn't be able to do much. The more Transcendence Archers there were, the more power they could unleash.
"Defend and break through!" Chu Zishan shouted in panic. At the same time, he quickly retreated to the troops behind him.
The ten thousand troops quickly raised their shields and huddled together. The shields were made from high-purity Gold Crystals, Amethyst Crystals, and a pile of Red Crystals to protect Chu Zishan and the other commanders. There was no other way. The equipment of the local forces was no match for the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards. Unlike the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards, each of them was equipped with a standard Red Crystal shield.
The giant shield sphere formed by the ten thousand troops quickly defended itself. At the same time, it also quickly broke through the encirclement. Chu Zishan was indeed a veteran of the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards. He knew that if they only defended themselves now, they would only die. They had to fight their way out of the encirclement. Only then would they have a chance at survival.
Xiu xiu xiu …
Countless beams of light suddenly shot out and bombarded the shield formation. The sound of explosions was deafening.
The golden shield was instantly penetrated by countless streams of light, and the unstoppable force continued to hit the people behind the shield. Screams filled the air, and a bunch of people were scattered in a mess. It was as if a thick outer shell of a huge sphere had been peeled off.
In just one wave of attack, almost a third of the ten thousand troops had been killed.
The Black Dragon Guards on Miao Yi's side were not to be trifled with. They were also experts in group combat. The shield sphere wanted to escape. Under the tacit cooperation of the commanders, they didn't fight it head on. Instead, they surrounded it and flew at an equal distance. As the sphere sped up to escape, they sped up to catch up. As the sphere slowed down, they slowed down as well. They maintained a constant pace with the encirclement.
With such overwhelming strength, there was no need to cause any casualties on their side. It was enough to surround them and shoot as they moved.
Everyone in the Black Dragon Division was indeed furious. They had not provoked anyone, but suddenly, a group of people appeared and beat them up. They crawled out of the ground with dirt all over their faces, and even killed their brothers. Even the head mayor was so angry that he gave the order to kill them without mercy. It would be strange if they did not kill them. Anyway, if something happened, there would be someone higher up to take the blame, so the responsibility would not fall on them.
"Block it! Those who follow me to break out of the encirclement will be rewarded handsomely! Magic Breaker Bow, shoot! "
At the same time, Chu Zishan, who was protecting the crowd, urgently summoned his subordinates from all over the place to come to his rescue. He roared furiously and took advantage of the gap between the wave of arrows to shoot out hundreds of streams of light from the round shield sphere in all directions. He wanted to disrupt the rhythm of the encirclement, or else he would have no way of escaping. Chu Zishan's personal strength was indeed high. His flying speed was also very fast, but he did not dare to leave the protection of the army. Leaving the protection of the army alone was simply courting death!
The encirclement of the army immediately formed a shield formation of ten people and rushed to the front to block the incoming meteor arrows.
Amidst the booming sounds, the encirclement of the army did not fall into chaos. The power of the scattered magic breaker bows was not that great for a large army. Without the combined power of a group attack, a small group of them could easily defend against the arrows.
The encirclement's attack formation changed. It split into three waves and took turns to shoot, suppressing the enemy to the point where they had no chance to fight back. After cutting off a large portion of the enemy's strength, it was a waste to continue blindly using meteor arrows. Continuing to blindly use Meteor Arrows at full power was also a bit of a waste. It was not worth it to hit an enemy a few times. After all, every arrow consumed energy.
The consumption of one person using the magic breaker bow might not be much, but the consumption of resources for tens of thousands of people using the magic breaker bow was not a small amount. That was why it was said that not everyone could afford to raise such an army.
In the distance, a group of hundreds of people stopped in the starry sky, not daring to come over. They all looked over in fear.
They were none other than the defending army that surrounded the Glorious Cloud Pavilion and held the people inside as hostages. They received the order to rush over to help, but they did not come. Instead, they saw Lord Lieutenant being attacked so badly, and the ones attacking were the Heavenly Court's people. They did not understand!
"Lord, should we attack?" A general looked at the commander and asked with a trembling voice.
The commander suddenly turned around and looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot.
The others also had the same expression, as if saying, what's the point of saving him! Tens of thousands of Heavenly Court's soldiers surrounded them, and everyone had magic breaker bows. They were obviously in the hands of the guards. If they went up, they would not even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth.
But as the commander, he could not say that he did not want to save them. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape punishment. However, he had his reasons. He said with a serious expression, "The guards are His Majesty's personal army. For them to appear here and attack Lord Lieutenant, it is possible that Lord Lieutenant has done something that we do not know about. We should report to the higher-ups and ask about the situation before making a decision!"
Everyone muttered in their hearts. By the time they asked about the situation, Lord Lieutenant would probably have been dead for a long time.
But no one would object at this time, unless they wanted to die. They accepted the order in unison, "Yes!"
"Retreat!" The commander waved his hand and quickly led his men away. He was afraid that they would not be able to escape if they were too late.
There were also cultivators passing by. They were startled by the earth-shattering sounds of battle and came over to see what was going on. When they saw what was going on, they were shocked. What was going on? The Heavenly Court's troops were actually fighting each other? They hurriedly left to avoid looking for trouble.
At this time, the encirclement of the huge shield formation had already been reduced to a small cluster. There were only a few hundred red crystal shields forming a circle. He stopped running, knowing that he could not escape anymore. Chu Zishan's hoarse voice rang out, "I am an official of the Heavenly Court. By the will of the heavens, I am overseeing Youding Domain. If you want to punish me, it is not up to you. Do you know the consequences of killing me?!"
His words were indeed effective. It was not a small matter to recklessly kill a Lord Lieutenant overseeing a domain. This was already a vassal ruling over the entire starry sky. The attack came to a halt. All the commanders looked at Miao Yi and Mu Yulian, who stood on the collapsed ground in the distance.
Mu Yulian also looked at Miao Yi.
Miao Yi turned around and walked over to the dozens of wounded soldiers lying on the ground. He crouched down beside a few of the Black Dragon Division brothers who had died in battle. His expressionless face gradually turned ferocious as he growled, "Now you know how to be reasonable? Why didn't you listen to me when you were killing my men? Capture him alive and bring him here to kneel and apologize to the dead Black Dragon Si brothers! "
His voice reverberated throughout the starry sky.
Mu Yulian turned around and waved her hand to give the order!
The rumbling sounds rang out again.
Tens of thousands of streams of light suddenly shot out, and the last line of defense formed by hundreds of red crystal shields completely collapsed.
Chu Zishan, who was defenseless, led a dozen of his surviving subordinates who were wearing red crystal armor. "Ah!" They roared as they charged towards a certain direction.
Over a hundred Meteor Arrows were nocked once again. Precious light swirled around them as they aimed at the dozen or so people rushing over. Amidst the rapid 'peng peng' sounds, over a hundred streaks of light shot out.
Although the Meteor Arrows did not break through the defense of the Red Crystal Battle Armor, they all vomited blood and were shot into the starry sky.
A group of people rushed over. With a flick of the Immortal Binding Rope and a flick of the spear, they were all captured and brought to Miao Yi's side.
Looking at the dozen or so captured people, who were still vomiting blood, Miao Yi stared at Chu Zishan and calmly said, "Kneel!"
The group of people who were escorting them immediately raised their weapons and smashed the backs of these people's legs, forcing them to kneel before Miao Yi.
Chu Zishan shook his head and struggled, but to no avail. He glared at Miao Yi and roared, "Who are you? How dare you humiliate me like this! "
Whoosh! Miao Yi drew the sword from his waist and knocked on the crooked helmet on Chu Zishan's head. "You are all accomplices of this dog. Drag the others to the dead brothers and behead them!"
"Ah!" The dozen or so people around Chu Zishan immediately screamed and struggled.
But it was useless. They were immediately dragged to a nearby location and forced to kneel on the ground. The executioner raised his blade and brought it down. A dozen or so spurts of blood sprayed out, and a dozen or so heads flew off. The corpses twitched as they fell to the ground.
Chu Zishan turned his head and widened his eyes. He could no longer hide the fear on his face. When he looked at Miao Yi again, he could no longer say anything like 'how dare you humiliate me like this'. Miao Yi had killed them just like that. Why would he be afraid of humiliating him? He gritted his teeth and asked, "Which part of the Personal Guards do you belong to?" He couldn't understand how the Personal Guards could produce such a lunatic.
Miao Yi's sword scraped and rubbed against Chu Zishan's helmet, as though he was trying to figure out where to strike. But in the end, he gave Chu Zishan an answer. "Left Commandant, Suppressing First Guard, Big Dipper Army, Black Dragon Division's Head Commander … Niu Youde is here!" His voice was calm and his gaze was profound as he looked down at Chu Zishan with contempt.
"Niu Youde …" Chu Zishan was taken aback. He lifted his head to look at Miao Yi and his pupils abruptly shrank. Many images flashed through his mind. They were images of people reminding him of a certain matter. The contents of their reminders were mostly the same: 'That woman is not to be trifled with. I heard she has an affair with Niu Youde. As long as Niu Youde is alive, no one in Heaven's Avenue will dare to touch that woman. That lunatic is capable of anything. There are many beauties in this world.
His Excellency doesn't have to go through so much trouble for a woman … 'In the past, people had only mentioned Niu Youde to him. He never dreamed that Niu Youde would suddenly appear here.
He had long heard of Niu Youde's reputation, but never in his wildest dreams did he expect to meet him in such a manner.
Now that he had met Miao Yi, he finally realized that Niu Youde was indeed a lunatic. He actually dared to massacre the entire Celestial Court's army, which numbered more than ten thousand!
In that instant, Chu Zishan's eyes widened. He seemed to have understood something. He finally understood why he had encountered such a strange calamity!
"It's you …" Chu Zishan howled madly, desperately trying to stand up.
'Pa!' Miao Yi slapped him to the ground with his sword, then stepped on his cheek. Chu Zishan's head almost sank into the ground.
