"How dare you!"
Twenty-three roared angrily, and his entire body charged forward.
At the same time, 24 didn't say anything and slapped his palm toward Zhu Yuwen from the other side.
Boom!
After a loud sound, Zhu Yuwen was involuntarily sent flying backwards and landed on the ground.
Although his cultivation level was high, Number 23 and Number 24 were not much weaker than him. With the two of them joining forces, how could he be their match?
"Bai Qi, we are not done with this!" Zhu Yuwen roared angrily.
Yun Ziyan's expression was also ugly. She looked straight at Yang Xuan, her eyes filled with anger. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Yang Xuan looked at her and suddenly laughed.
Yun Ziyan was baffled by his laughter. "What are you laughing at?"
"Alliance Leader Yun has been in a high position for too long. You are used to ordering people around." Yang Xuan shook his head and said lightly, "No, don't forget that I am not your subordinate. Why would I have the obligation to tell you?"
Yun Ziyan was stunned. She opened her mouth but did not say anything.
Yang Xuan was right. He was not her subordinate, nor was he a member of the Martial Alliance. Why would he have the obligation to tell her this?
"Furthermore …" Yang Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, expressionless. "Furthermore, I have already warned you to pay attention to the ground. However, Elder Zhu does not seem to trust me."
After saying that, he looked at Zhu Yuwen, whose face was flushed red.
After a while, Yun Ziyan suddenly sighed and bowed to Yang Xuan. "Brother Bai, I was wrong before. Please forgive me. Elder Zhu was just eager to destroy the enemy. I hope Brother Bai will not be angry."
Seeing Yun Ziyan's actions, Yang Xuan was curious.
Ever since he met Yun Ziyan, she seemed to treat him differently. She was very different from the others in the Heavenly Lake.
For example, at this moment, if it were anyone else, they would have fallen out with Yang Xuan. However, Yun Ziyan was willing to bow to Yang Xuan and apologize. It was very rare.
One had to know that she was the Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance. Furthermore, she had the Heavenly Lake faction backing her.
Of course, Yang Xuan wasn't narcissistic enough to think that Yun Ziyan had fallen in love with him.
At Yun Ziyan's level of cultivation, she had long since become indifferent to romantic matters.
Furthermore, to be able to step into the Empty God Realm and become an Almighty, Yun Ziyan could not possibly be as young as she looked.
Then, what was the reason for Yun Ziyan, who had never met Yang Xuan, to think highly of Yang Xuan? She even turned a blind eye to Yang Xuan killing members of the Martial Alliance. It could even be said that she condoned it?
There must be something that Yang Xuan didn't know.
Yun Ziyan brought the indignant Zhu Yuwen to count the casualties and organize the troops. Yang Xuan suddenly thought of something.
"Feng Shisan, I asked you to send people to investigate Su Zhenguo's disappearance in the Sunwheel kingdom. Why didn't I receive any news?"
"Your highness, there's nothing strange about Su Zhenguo's disappearance. It's truly a bizarre disappearance. Our people have yet to find any clues."
"Have you discovered any zombies in the Sunwheel kingdom?" Yang Xuan asked after some thought.
"Apart from the three zombies we discovered in the secret room, we haven't discovered any other zombies," said Feng Shisan.
Yang Xuan nodded. He planned on making a personal trip to Qingyang city.
Firstly, he wanted to see if he could discover the reason for Su Zhenguo's disappearance. Secondly, it was because of the Heaven Opening Scripture.
Previously, the Bandit Commander had said that he had obtained the Heaven Opening Scripture from the Sunwheel imperial mausoleum. No matter what, he had to take a look.
He felt like there was some mysterious connection between the Heaven Opening Scripture, the Human Pearl, and the zombies.
"Your highness, what do we do about this?" asked Feng Shisan.
After seeing Yang Xuan in action, he had already treated Yang Xuan as his master from the bottom of his heart. He was used to asking him about everything.
"The Blood Blade Sect is a faction of the Martial Alliance, so they'll naturally be the ones to worry about. All we need to do is watch," said Yang Xuan.
Indeed, after Yun Ziyan reorganized herself, she personally led the troops to attack the Blood Blade Sect's zombies.
Before launching the attack, she had asked Yang Xuan for his opinion, hoping that Yang Xuan would cooperate with her to deal with the zombies.
Yang Xuan did not agree, but he did not reject her outright either. He only expressed that he would lend a helping hand when necessary.
The Martial Alliance had suffered a great loss, so they were extremely careful this time. Under Yun Ziyan and company's lead, they advanced and retreated in an orderly manner. They attacked and defended well, resisted the monsters, and dealt damage. There were also people who constantly wandered outside the battlefield, providing support from time to time. Their teamwork was seamless.
Yang Xuan nodded his head as he watched. Ignoring everything else, just the fact that Yun Ziyan was able to instill her battle intent in such a short period of time and make everyone faithfully carry it out was not simple.
Although the zombies were powerful, they were lacking in intelligence. When Yun Ziyan's battle intent was completely carried out, she caused a great deal of casualties to the zombies in a short period of time.
However, Yun Ziyan had ordered her subordinates to stay on the periphery, not daring to venture too deep.
Firstly, there were more zombies than the Martial Alliance, and secondly, she was constantly on guard against the elusive Earth Spikes.
Yun Ziyan's subordinates were carefully nibbling away at the zombies. The gathered zombies did not seem to have much of a change in combat strength.
Under such a strange situation, the battle entered a stalemate.
Lei Shijiu could not bear to watch any further. He jumped out and said, "Your Highness, Shijiu requests to fight. We cannot let the Martial Alliance laugh at us."
Yang Xuan stared at him and said, "Watch carefully. When it's time for you to fight, you will naturally fight. What's the rush?"
Although Lei Shijiu was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey Yang Xuan's orders. He could only watch anxiously.
At this moment, there was a change in the situation.
At some point in time, faint wisps of black gas began to emanate from the zombies. It looked like fog, but it was not as loose as fog. Instead, it condensed into strands that looked like black ropes.
Yun Ziyan naturally noticed this situation. She gave several orders and the Martial Alliance's formation changed again. The distance between them increased and they spread out even further.
Yang Xuan looked at the wisps of black gas and fell into deep thought.
Moments later, he suddenly said, "Shijiu, lead people to attack from the back mountain of the Blood Blade Sect. Be careful not to touch the black gas."
Lei Shijiu had been waiting for this sentence. He responded excitedly and led his subordinates away.
"Feng Shisan, stay here with your men. Pay attention to any changes in the situation. If anything goes wrong, ignore the lives of the Martial Alliance and just save Shijiu."
"Yes!" Feng Shisan said with a serious expression.
Yang Xuan thought for a moment and took out the three-meter tall statue from his storage ring.
"Shisan, keep this. If the zombies can't withstand it, take this out."
"Yes!" Feng Shisan looked at the blurry statue in puzzlement, but he did not say a word.
"The two of you stay here as well. Take care of Shijiu and Shijiu." Yang Xuan said to Shijiu and Shijiu.
"Your Highness, our duty is to ensure your safety." Shijiu said with a straight face.
Yang Xuan smiled and said, "When have I ever needed anyone to protect me?"
"But Your Highness …" Shijiu argued.
"There are no buts." Yang Xuan said lightly, "Just follow orders."
Shijiu opened his mouth but did not say a word. He could only nod helplessly.
Although their first duty was to ensure Yang Xuan's safety, above that, the first rule was to obey Yang Xuan's orders. Therefore, they could not disobey Yang Xuan's orders.
"By the way, pay attention to the situation of the eight dead brothers. I suspect that they might have turned into zombies."
"Yes!" Feng Shisan looked at the corpses on the ground and acknowledged.
After making the necessary arrangements, Yang Xuan nodded to everyone before disappearing from the spot.
