"Roar!"
With a roar, Lei Chong smashed the head of a chiliarch into pieces with his war hammer, causing his brains to splatter out. Lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating the surroundings. Outside the city, there were countless Armor Demons, countless Armor Demons!
"Shield formation!"
In the crowd, Min Zhan rushed out with his sword, facing the sharp claws of the Armor Demons.
The soldiers in the front fell down like wheat being cut, followed by a loud bang. The entire city wall finally collapsed under the rain. Immediately, the Armor Demons rushed into the city and attacked Min Yulin's flank.
"Clang!"
Lin Muyu drew out the Dragon Soul Sword and yelled, "Break through!"
Qin Yan, Shen Han, and the rest pulled out their weapons silently, following Lin Muyu as they charged over.
"Hum!"
An Armor Demon swung its battle axe at Lin Muyu with a ferocious look on its face. However, Lin Muyu's speed far exceeded its expectations. After dodging the Armor Demon's attack with a [Star Steps], Lin Muyu's sword flashed, and the Armor Demon's head flew into the sky. Lin Muyu did not stop and continued to rush forward. The Dragon Spirit Sword shone brightly, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Armor Demons had been chopped into pieces.
At this moment, Lin Muyu didn't want to challenge Lei Chong, nor did she want to attack the main force of the Armor Demons. Those Armor Demons seemed to have seen the general flag in the chaos and madly rushed towards Min Yulin. In the blink of an eye, the general flag fell down. In the crowd of Armor Demons, Min Yulin's saber light was still shining, but it wouldn't last long.
"Boom!"
The blunt weapon fell on the armor and a soldier of Templar Camp had a big hole in his chest. He fell down without a sound.
Lin Muyu gritted her teeth and rushed forward step by step in the rain, opening the way for Qin Yan, Shen Han, and the others.
There were more and more Armor Demons around, and the number of soldiers of Templar Camp decreased sharply. In less than ten minutes, there were less than ten people left. Even Shen Han was injured, one of his arms was chopped off.
The sound of fighting behind them became softer and softer, as if it was covered by the heavy rain, but it seemed more like the battle was over.
Indeed, the Armor Demons possessed boundless strength and were invulnerable to swords and spears. Their battle prowess was enough to allow them to fight ten imperial soldiers at once. At this time, there were at least a hundred thousand Armor Demons everywhere, while Min Yulin only had ten thousand men. How could he possibly hold them off?
Her feet were covered in mud, and rays of golden gourd light lingered around Lin Muyu's body. She did not even bother to conceal the light of her God Binding Chains martial soul. Rays of golden God Binding Chains lingered around the longsword, emitting a sword aura that was close to two meters long. It swept across time and time again, slicing the clumsy Armor Demon into two halves. Just like that, she brought Qin Yan, Shen Han, and the rest as she charged into the distance.
…
"Akatosaurus, open the way for me!"
With an angry roar, Akatosaurus's spiritual sense broke through the crack in space. It pounced out and bit the head of an Armor Demon. Then, it bit its tail, and the sharp red crystal scales on its back stood up. It rushed out like a thorny needle, and the Armor Demons in its way were quickly turned into piles of meat.
The appearance of Akatosaurus shocked the demons. They had never seen such a monster before.
However, it attracted the hatred of the Devil Race. Battle axes, spears, and other weapons greeted the rolling Little Dragon. In less than five minutes, many holes had appeared on the Little Dragon's scales. It roared and screamed while attacking.
Lin Muyu couldn't bear to see it, and immediately sent the little dragon back to the alternate space.
At this moment, she felt a burning pain on her left arm. She did not know when the wound had been torn open, and blood was flowing out. However, she did not have the time to stop the bleeding. Furthermore, she was drifting in the heavy rain, and she did not have the time to do so. Lin Muyu could only charge forward without retreating. However, the number of people behind her was decreasing, and there were only three or four people following her.
At this time, the sound of a rushing river came from ahead. It was the Inui River. The Inui River flowed outside Winter Frost City, and it was drawn on the map.
Lin Muyu hurriedly said, "Go into the water, swim over!"
Qin Yan's eyes were still on Lin Muyu's God Binding Chains, but he didn't have time to think too much. He jumped into the river and swam with Lin Muyu. Behind them, a group of Armor Demons stopped when they reached the water's edge. Their feet were in the shallow water, and they could only roar at the river, but they didn't dare to step in again.
Armor Demons were afraid of water!
"Shen Han, Shen Han!" Lin Muyu shouted in the darkness.
Qin Yan said while paddling, "Big Brother, Lord Shen Han died in battle just now …"
"…"
Lin Muyu was silent, paddling with all her might. At this time, a Temple Camp soldier appeared not far away. He also jumped into the water and shouted, "Great Deacon."
"I'm here!" Lin Muyu activated her Dou Qi, and the golden gourd shone brighter.
That person hurriedly swam over, but a second later, there was a buzzing sound on the shore, and a black shadow flew over. The next moment, the Temple Camp soldier's head was smashed into pieces!
It was the Armor Demon's throw!
Lin Muyu's heart was cold. Qin Yan said hurriedly, "They are still waiting for us on the shore. Big Brother, I will swim to the other side, or we will not be able to escape from the Armor Demons."
"Yes!"
But at this time, there was the sound of an arrow leaving the bow.
"Not good, it's the Winged People!"
Lin Muyu hurriedly activated her Dou Qi, and the golden gourd came out of her body, forming the walls of the gourd above her head. "Ding ding dang dang" sounds were heard, and the arrows kept bouncing off. The river was very wide, and the two of them swam for close to half an hour before reaching the other side. There seemed to be Winged People chasing them in the air.
"What do we do?!" Qin Yan said loudly.
Lin Muyu suddenly pressed down on his shoulder, and the two of them sprawled in the reeds by the river. Lin Muyu did not make a sound, and used the Spirit Pulse Technique to sense the Winged People's aura. After close to ten minutes, these Winged People finally flew away, and he heaved a sigh of relief. He felt as if all the Dou Qi in his body had been sucked dry. This battle had used up at least ninety percent of his Dou Qi!
"Don't gather any more Dou Qi." He looked at Qin Yan and said calmly, "Otherwise, we will be discovered by their Winged People very quickly. I think the Winged People's night vision is also very limited, and it is raining heavily right now. Let's escape under the cover of the heavy rain. Ah Yan, can you still tell the direction?"
Qin Yan nodded and said, "That is the west, in the direction of Lanyan City."
"Let's go home."
"Yes, go home!" When Qin Yan heard the word "go home," he almost cried. The nineteen days he was surrounded in Winter Frost City was like a nightmare, a nightmare that he did not want to recall.
Taking advantage of the rainy night, the two of them sprinted west, and only took a short break when they were at least fifty miles away from Winter Frost City.
The rain was still pouring down, and Qin Yan cried, sitting in the mud and wailing loudly.
Lin Muyu was silent. She tore a piece from her bloodstained battle robe and wrapped it around the wound on her arm.
Qin Yan cried for a long time, and finally said, "Big Brother, did the Marquis die in battle?"
"Yes, he died."
"The Marquis was such a good person, why would he die?"
"I don't know."
Lin Muyu's mind was also in a mess. She patted Qin Yan's shoulder and said, "Yan, let's go. There are demons everywhere here, and they won't let this go. I don't know … I don't know what the situation in Cangnan Province is like. The demons are so greedy, they won't be satisfied with just a small Winter Frost City."
"You mean … the demons will advance west?" Qin Yan said in shock.
"Yes, they will attack Five Valleys City, then Lanyan City, and destroy the entire empire." Lin Muyu took a deep breath and said, "We must make early preparations, or else we will definitely suffer a crushing defeat. Alright, let's go. We don't have time to rest, we must find two horses as soon as possible. We will go to Five Valleys City first, then Lanyan City."
"Yes."
… …
The sky brightened, and the rain stopped. The rising sun baptized everything on the earth with its golden splendor, as if washing away all the sins left behind from last night's battle.
Lin Muyu and Qin Yan no longer looked like high-ranking military officers. Their armor was covered in mud and blood, and their battle robes were dyed red with blood. Even the rain could not wash away the red.
At noon, they found a village on the western border of Lingdong Province. Fortunately, Lin Muyu's Cosmos Sack was still there. They found some Jinyin coins and ate two large bowls of noodles in the village. Then, they found the village chief and asked him to move the villagers to Cangnan Province. However, the village chief refused them, thinking that these two were just street swindlers.
In reality, this was indeed the case. Two shabbily dressed people, who would believe that one was a Great Deacon of the Temple and the other was a young prince?
Lin Muyu did not waste her breath. There was no need to waste time on people that could not be saved. She bought two pretty good battle horses and galloped with Qin Yan to Cangnan Province.
… …
The next day, they arrived at the border of the province. There was a main road ahead, which was also the official road that connected Cangnan Province to Lingdong Province. The two of them galloped forward until noon. Some guards appeared on the road. They had set up a checkpoint here, but there were still at least three days of galloping horses before they reached Five Valley City.
"Dismount!"
A centurion walked forward and looked at Lin Muyu and Qin Yan with a strange expression. He asked, "Who are you?"
Lin Muyu dismounted and pulled off the tattered cloak on her shoulder, revealing the golden leaf of the Great Deacon of the Temple. She said, "I am the Great Deacon of the Temple, Lin Muyu. He is the son of Prince Yunning, Qin Yan. We are from Winter Frost City."
The centurion rolled his eyes and suddenly laughed. He pointed at them and laughed, "You two swindlers actually dare to deceive me. Isn't Winter Frost City at war with the Yihe Kingdom? If you are really from the Yangwei Army, why are you here? Are you … defeated soldiers? Where is the Great Deacon of the Temple, Lin Muyu? Would the Four Heroes of Lanyan look as miserable as you? "
The soldiers on the side also laughed.
Qin Yan frowned and said indifferently, "The Yangwei Army has been completely destroyed."
"What did you say?"
The centurion laughed even more wildly, "Bullshit! Min Yulin, the Marquis of Wei, has shaken the world and defeated the 70,000 main forces of the Yihe Kingdom. Now he is holding a celebration banquet in Winter Frost City. How dare you say that the Yangwei Army has been completely destroyed! "
