At the Southern border of the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction, there was smoke everywhere. The 200,000 strong army of the Blood Pupil Clan surrounded the Black Mountain Fort.
Without the protection of the army in the Black Mountain Fort, the cities, towns, Spiritual Stone Mines, Dark Iron Mines, etc. within a million miles were attacked by the Blood Pupil Clan.
In just a few days, there were four Spiritual Stone Mines, two Dark Iron Mines, three small cities and eight small towns that were attacked by the Blood Pupil Clan at the border.
Countless resources were plundered by the Blood Pupil Clan and more than a million citizens of the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction died tragically. The Southern Land was filled with blood.
The soldiers of the Black Cloud Army and the Red Dragon Camp and the 10 warships finally neared the Black Mountain Fort after travelling for two days and nights.
The Black Mountain Fort was located at the foot of a huge black mountain. It was like a huge beast lying dormant. It was simple and solemn and it faced the territory of the Blood Pupil Clan across the mountain.
At this moment, the walls of the Black Mountain Fort that stretched for hundreds of miles were in ruins. The surrounding land had been torn apart and there were countless huge cracks.
With the Fort as the centre, the surrounding area had become a huge basin.
On top of the Black Mountain Fort, there was a huge white air cover that covered the entire Fort.
Obviously, this was the defensive array of the Black Mountain Fort.
At this moment, there was no one from the Blood Pupil Clan outside the Black Mountain Fort. It was obvious that the troops of the Blood Pupil Clan had retreated.
Seeing that the Black Mountain Fort was safe, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
The 10 warships stopped in front of the Black Mountain Fort. More than 20,000 soldiers flew down from the warships and landed in front of the gates of the Black Mountain Fort.
Then, the warships were kept by the Second Princess.
"The Second Princess has led the troops here. Open the gates quickly!" A female guard beside the Second Princess shouted loudly.
There were countless soldiers on the walls of the Black Mountain Fort. They had already noticed the arrival of the soldiers of the Black Cloud Army and the Red Dragon Camp.
"Haha, the Second Princess is here to support us. We have nothing to worry about!"
There was a hearty laugh on the walls. A middle-aged general in golden armour waved his hand and said, "Temporarily close the defensive array and welcome the Second Princess and the troops into the city!"
Then, the defensive array of the Fort disappeared and the gates of the Fort opened.
Then, the defensive array of the Fort disappeared and the gates of the Fort opened.
The Second Princess shouted and took the lead to walk into the Black Mountain Fort. The troops from the Black Cloud Army and the Red Dragon Camp followed closely behind and entered the Black Mountain Fort.
Although Black Mountain Fort was called a fort, it was actually a majestic city. In addition to the 100,000 soldiers stationed there, there were also millions of ordinary martial artists living there.
These warriors were the foundation of the troops in the Fort. Many warriors would join the army when they reached a certain level.
After the 22,000 soldiers from the Black Cloud Army and the Red Dragon Camp entered the Fortress, they were arranged to camp in the southern region of the Fortress.
…
In the main hall of the General 'Residence.
At this moment, the main hall was filled with dozens of armored generals.
On the main seat was the middle-aged general in golden armor, and he had a solemn and dignified expression.
On the lower left side of the golden-armored general, nearly twenty generals were sitting upright. They were all generals of the Black Mountain Stronghold.
Second Princess Gu Feifei was seated on the first seat on the right.
Jin Tai, the commander of the Black Cloud Army, and Hua Xun and Ren Tianya were the platoon leaders of the Red Dragon Camp.
Behind them were the high ranking generals of the Black Cloud Army and Red Dragon Camp. Su Mo, Zhu Tong, Jin Lu and the others were among them.
Su Mo was the platoon leader of the Red Dragon Camp and had the right to attend the meeting. Jin Lu and Zhu Tong were the deputy generals of the Black Cloud Army and had the right to attend as well.
"General Zhu Long, I don't see anyone from the Blood Pupil Clan outside the Fort. Has the Blood Pupil Clan retreated?" The Second Princess looked at the General in golden armour and asked.
This General in golden armour was Zhu Long. He was the commander of the Black Mountain Fort and a member of the Zhu Family of the Holy Dynasty.
"Princess, the Blood Pupil Clan might have known that your reinforcements are coming and retreated an hour ago!" Zhu Long said.
"Oh? That's a good thing! "The Second Princess nodded her head. The Blood Pupil Clan had retreated to avoid a bloody battle.
"Princess, you may not know this, but the situation here is quite complicated!" General Zhu Long sighed.
"General Zhu, please tell me more!" The Second Princess said.
General Zhu Long pondered for a while and said, "The Blood Pupil Clan's invasion this time was premeditated to plunder our resources. The 200,000 strong army besieged the Fort and trapped our army in the Fort. Taking advantage of this time, the Blood Pupil Clan went deep into our territory and plundered everything crazily. Many cities, towns and mineral veins were occupied by them."
"Why didn't the other Forts send reinforcements?" The Second Princess asked curiously. There were more than 10 Forts along the long border of the Southern Border and Black Mountain Fort was not the only one.
"Princess, you might not know this but Tuo Luo Country and other forces at the border have been restless recently. We really can't send reinforcements here!" Zhu Long said.
"Mm!"
The Second Princess nodded her head slightly. After pondering for a while, she asked, "What happened to the cities, towns, and mineral veins that were occupied by the Blood Pupil Clan? Has the Blood Pupil Clan retreated? "
"I'm not sure. An hour ago, I had already sent someone to investigate. I believe there will be news soon!" Zhu Long said.
General Zhu Long and the Second Princess slowly conversed and told Su Mo about the situation at the border of the Southern Border.
Su Mo quietly listened to the conversation between General Zhu Long and the Second Princess. He had a rough understanding of the situation at the border of the Southern Border.
Based on the current situation, it seemed that the Blood Pupil Clan had taken the initiative to retreat. There shouldn't be a big battle in the future.
…
Within the endless black mountain range, a huge army was stationed in a deep and serene valley.
The scale of this army was not small. There were more than 200,000 soldiers and there were no tents or war flags.
More than 200,000 soldiers were gathered in the valley. Some were meditating, some were cultivating and some were chatting with each other.
These people were all short and their eyes were blood red. They were from the Blood Pupil Clan.
An illusion array was set up on the top of the valley, preventing the outside world from discovering the valley and the army within it.
Deep in the valley, there were three people sitting cross-legged in a cave.
One of them was Elder Xue Cheng of the Blood Pupil Clan.
As for the other two, if Su Mo was here, he would definitely be able to recognize them as Honored Wu Han and Wu Fengtian of the Sorcerer Tribe.
"Brother Wu Han, for your grand plan, I have led the army forward. Up till now, I have lost a few thousand tribesmen!" Elder Xue Cheng sighed as he looked at Wu Han.
This time, the Blood Pupil Clan had invaded the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction because of Wu Han and Wu Fengtian's request.
If Wu Han was alone, it wouldn't be enough for them to mobilize so many people. However, Wu Fengtian was the Young Clan Leader of the Heavenly Underworld Star Sorcerer Tribe and he was important.
"Elder Xue Cheng, don't worry. The rewards that I have promised you will not be lesser!" Honored Wu Han laughed. The reason why they could invite the Blood Pupil Clan to help was because they had promised them a large reward.
With regards to the losses that Elder Xue Cheng had mentioned, Wu Han was disdainful. Losing a few thousand tribesmen was not even worth mentioning.
