The Tianji Empire had conquered more than half of the Tongtian Province with an unstoppable force. They had long become a proud army. How could the army stationed in Xiangzhou Prefecture have imagined that there were 8,000 elites from the Qin Empire behind a group of defeated soldiers? Moreover, the commander of this elite army was a Super Godly State expert.
When Lin Muyu looked up, she saw the God's Seal blasting open the head of a green dragon. Tang Xiaoxi's Nation Suppressing Whip swept through the air and almost cracked the head of the green dragon knight. The poor dragon knight was only at the Divine Heaven State. He was classified as a Saint Martial Venerable in the Celestial Pole Continent, but he could not withstand a round of attacks from Tang Xiaoxi.
"Xiao Xi, watch out!" Lin Muyu shouted.
Tang Xiaoxi looked up and saw a dragon knight riding on a black dragon. He held a burning battle axe in his hand and swung it down from the sky. The battle axe created a light that was dozens of meters long, and energy splashed everywhere. This was a Saint Martial King with at least the thirtieth Grotto-Heaven Realm cultivation. He was also the strongest among the four dragon knights.
"Boom, boom …"
Flames soared into the sky. Tang Xiaoxi instantly transformed into a nine-tailed demon fox. Her beautiful face became even more enchanting. She held the Nation Suppressing Whip in her right hand, and a book with a demonic light appeared in her left hand. It was the Ghost Tome of Death!
"Fear!"
Tang Xiaoxi opened her palm, and the pages of the Ghost Tome of Death flipped rapidly. Streaks of black spiritual energy flew out and soared into the sky like a huge whirlpool. In the blink of an eye, it surrounded the black dragon knight. His Yi Hai immediately entered a state of chaos. Thousands of ghosts were boiling, and even the speed and strength of the battle axe in his hand were reduced by at least half!
The Ghost Tome of Death was originally a treasure used for support. It was demonic and domineering. The demonic energy in Tang Xiaoxi's body could be said to be the supreme of the three realms. Naturally, the Ghost Tome of Death was twice as effective in her hands.
"Mu, let's go!"
Tang Xiaoxi abruptly raised her whip and locked onto the opponent's battle axe. The nine fiery tails behind her rapidly swayed as Tang Xiaoxi forcibly dragged the Martial Saint King level Dragon Knight off her dragon's back.
Lin Muyu shot forward like a bolt of lightning, her long sword carrying the Five Mountains Descending from the Heavens Profound Energy, aiming straight for her opponent's back.
"Dream on!"
This burly man's strength was formidable. His body abruptly spun, and the Law of Fire's divine power erupted once more. He actually managed to break free from Tang Xiaoxi's grip, and his battle axe furiously chopped towards Lin Muyu behind him.
Clang!
Sparks flew as the Ice Origin Sword clashed with the battle axe. Lin Muyu didn't give in at all. She used 100% of her divine power to fight against her opponent. In comparison, this Martial Saint King level Dragon Knight was at a disadvantage. He looked at Lin Muyu in disbelief. How could this brat who was only at the 20th Grotto-Heaven Realm be able to suppress him in terms of strength?!
Behind him, Tang Xiaoxi's attack came again. It was still the Ghost Tome of Death — Ghost Descend!
Blood-red ghosts broke through the air and bound the Dragon Knight's body. He hurriedly shouted, "Black dragon, bite her to death! Now! Quick!"
"Roar!"
The black dragon opened its bloody mouth and bit towards Tang Xiaoxi's slim waist.
Tang Xiaoxi's speed was astonishingly fast. After entering the Nine-tailed Demon Fox state, her strength was definitely no lower than the 45th Grotto-Heaven Realm. Her body instantly grew by nearly ten meters. She raised her palm, and the Divine Array Seal struck the black dragon's mouth without any obstruction. Instantly, raging flames swept out, and this poor black dragon died in the sea of fire while howling in pain.
"Bang!"
Before the Dragon Knight could turn around, his waist was already punched. It was Lin Muyu's charged attack, and the place where the punch was punched was actually glowing with a faint moonlight.
"B * stard!"
The Dragon Knight was already furious. He spun around and waved his battle axe, wanting to kill the two people in front of him. However, when he tried to raise his Qi, he realized that he could no longer accumulate divine power in his Qi Sea. His meridians seemed to have been completely crippled by the punch just now.
"How is this possible?" He was dumbfounded.
"Pfft!"
His body trembled, and a sword with a frosty cyclone pierced through his chest, piercing through his heart. This Holy Martial King expert died humiliatingly under the joint attacks of Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi.
…
"Ah?!"
In the sky, there was still a young Red Dragon Knight. He was also a Holy King Realm expert, and he was also an apprentice Dragon Knight. He could only watch helplessly as his mentor and companion were killed without being able to resist. His world had been turned upside down, and the scene before him was like a nightmare to him.
After the huge dragon roared, he actually rode the huge dragon and charged into the sky. He was going to escape!
The two Divine level experts from the Shattered Cauldron Realm before him were not people he could contend against at all.
"Mu, don't let him get away!"
Tang Xiaoxi had also led troops for a long time, and she knew very well that she couldn't let him get away. This place was 20 kilometers away from Xiangzhou County. Once this Dragon Knight went back to report, they would probably not be able to launch a surprise attack on Xiangzhou County.
The flames around the Ice Origin Sword surged, and Lin Muyu directly threw the longsword out. Dragon Flame Spiral Break!
The longsword that was spinning at high speed seemed to have eyes, and it pierced through the huge dragon's neck from below. Then, it pierced through the young Dragon Knight's heart. Instantly, both the man and the dragon died on the spot, and they fell from the sky.
The outcome had been decided, and what they had to do next was to quickly pacify the battlefield.
Lin Muyu waved her palm, and dark clouds gathered in the sky. In the blink of an eye, a heavy rain fell, and the surroundings became unbelievably dark. Suddenly, a few resplendent ice crystals fell from the sky, sweeping across the ground and turning hundreds of Flowing Spirit Army soldiers into a pile of minced meat. The Celestial Dome Dragon Crystals were very useful in a chaotic battle.
Tang Xiaoxi transformed into a ball of raging flames and shuttled through the crowd, creating a sea of fire. In addition, the soldiers of the Longdan Army Camp pulled out their swords and slashed at them. In less than five minutes, the defense of the thousands of enemy soldiers had been broken, and they were defeated and fled.
"Get on the horses!"
Lin Muyu ordered loudly, "Chase after them. The Flowing Spirit Army outside the forest are all infantry, and we are faster than them. Use the Magic Crystal Crossbows and kill as many as you can!"
The thousands of people in the Longdan Army Camp all got on their horses and rushed out of the dense forest with the two commanders.
The ground was filled with killing. The Flowing Spirit Army had about ten thousand people, half of them were cavalry and the other half were infantry. The cavalry was almost completely wiped out, while the five thousand infantry soldiers were fleeing towards Xiang Zhou County like a tide. But how could their legs outrun the four legs of the war horses? Everyone in the Longdan Army Camp was filled with killing intent, and carried out a massacre as though they were cutting melons and vegetables.
In the darkness of the night, among the Flowing Spirit Army, a Chiliarch shouted loudly, "We can't escape, scatter! All of you scatter and run for your lives! "
The thousands of infantry soldiers quickly scattered and escaped in all directions.
Lin Muyu rode on Snowwalker and chased at the front, and immediately ordered decisively, "The Longdan Army Camp must not scatter, follow me to Xiang Zhou County, that is our true objective!"
A group of cavalry soldiers galloped in the darkness, using their fastest speed to attack Xiang Zhou County. They had to launch a surprise attack before they could react, if not they would suffer heavy losses even if they seized Xiang Zhou County.
…
In the darkness of the night, a majestic city sat on the land of Middle Earth, Xiang Zhou County. This city that had been through wars for a long time had once again ushered in an unknown number of times.
On the city gate tower, a Dragon Rider dressed in fiery red armor was feeding a giant dragon. His fire dragon was devouring the lambs sent by the people one by one. After the Tianji Empire occupied Xiang Zhou, they did not massacre the city as cruelly as the Blackstone Empire. Instead, they put up a notice to pacify the people, but there was a price. The people had to provide food for the army, and a large number of livestock to support the giant dragons, tigers, and leopards in the Flowing Spirit Army.
A general wearing the military rank of five thousand soldiers smiled and said, "Sir, look, there are already torches in the distance. There are about five to six thousand people. It seems that the troops that went out of the city to pursue and kill have returned with a full load."
"Hehe …"
The Dragon Rider smiled faintly and said with disdain, "The Qin Empire of the Shattered Cauldron Realm is simply too weak. If they could withstand a little more, we wouldn't be so bored as to herd sheep and horses every day and stay in a place like Xiang Zhou where even birds don't shit."
"Yes, with Sir's ability, you are more suitable for attacking cities and territories. Staying in Xiang Zhou is simply putting a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I really don't know what Sir Dragon Rider Xu Chuan is thinking."
"Hmph, Sir Xu Chuan is the vice commander of the Tianji Dragon Rider Squad. Do not speak profanely. I don't want to hear such words a second time. Otherwise, I won't be able to keep my head."
"Yes!" The general was so scared that his whole body was trembling.
"Huh?"
The Dragon Rider suddenly looked at the sky in surprise.
"What's wrong, Sir?"
"Someone is coming!"
The Dragon Rider hurriedly pulled out his dragon sword and ran straight in the direction of the fire dragon. However, it was already too late. A blazing sun instantly bloomed in the sky and rapidly fell down. It was Lin Muyu's Purple Sun Plunge!
"Bang!"
The entire South Tower of Xiang Zhou County was instantly razed to the ground. The Dragon Rider was still alive, but his left arm had been blown off. He crawled towards his dragon pathetically, but when he looked up, he realized that half of the fire dragon's body had been blown up by the opponent's fierce attack!
"Who is it?!"
He forced himself to raise his head, only to see a man holding a sharp sword in his hand descending from the wind!
"Crack!"
His head rolled in the mess. The Dragon Rider, whose cultivation had not even reached the tenth level of Grotto-Heaven, died in humiliation in the defense.
The defending troops in the city were already in a mess. The South Tower was razed to the ground, and the cavalry of the Longdan Army Camp rushed forward with magic crystal crossbows. Even the hastily formed spear formation of the defending troops was defeated by a few dozen magic crystal crossbows. Without the protection of the Dragon Rider's Dragon Battle Spiral, the Tianji Empire's army could not resist the magic crystal weapons at all.
…
After an entire night, the defending troops of the Flowing Spirit Army in Xiang Zhou County were almost wiped out, and the casualties of Lin Muyu's subordinates were not low. After this battle, the number of people had decreased from nine thousand to six thousand. After all, it was a large-scale battle, and casualties were inevitable.
When dawn came, the Longdan Army Camp hurriedly replenished some dry rations in the city and gave up on Xiang Zhou County. There was no way for them to defend the city by themselves, and the army went straight to the granary of Xiang Zhou County.
At noon, the three granaries outside the city were on fire.
This was Lin Muyu's tactic, to avoid a direct confrontation with a strong enemy, and to attack when they were unprepared. Close to three hundred thousand soldiers of the Flowing Spirit Army had entered Tong Tian Province. As long as they caused trouble and burned the granaries so that they could not get any food supplies, they would be able to delay their advance.
The three armies were based on food, and without food, they could not fight a war. This was also the most fatal weakness of the Tianji Empire's expeditionary army!
