"Investigate! Investigate this fellow's background at all costs! Why are there so many Zhou Tianshen Emissaries in the Constellation Heavenly Monarch's Residence in the Wood Silk Realm? Investigate at all costs! "
As he watched the Hundred Poison Blood Veil disintegrate and the two hundred plus figures behind it instantly dissipate, Young Marshal Huan Ying felt a sharp pain in his heart. An indescribable sense of grievance and humiliation made him wish he could smash the Cloudpiercing Ship that allowed him to escape with a single punch.
However, his strong self-discipline warned him very clearly that he could not do this. In the end, this indescribable feeling of grievance and humiliation all turned into an extremely angry roar!
"Young Marshal, please calm down!" Those who were able to accompany Young Marshal Huan Ying on the retreating Cloud Piercing Ship were all Young Marshal Huan Ying's trusted aides. At this moment, even Na Yuanhe, when they heard Young Marshal Huan Ying's unprecedented roar, they immediately knelt on the ground.
Now that they had left the battlefield, Young Marshal Huan Ying was no longer as calm as he had been forced to be on the battlefield. Right now, he was more like an enraged lion.
He had never been in such a sorry state before. Over the years, he had always won despite being outnumbered. No matter how difficult the situation was, he had never used the Hundred Poison Blood Veil.
When the Great Emperor had passed down the Hundred Poison Blood Veil, Young Marshal Huan Ying had felt that he might never need to use this self-destructive move in his lifetime.
However, today, when his reputation was at its peak, he had been forced to use this move. What made him feel even more aggrieved was that even though he had used this move, the army he had led this time had still suffered a great loss.
This could be seen from the number of Cloud Piercing Ships he had used during the retreat. When he had come, his 70,000-strong army had used more than 350 Cloud Piercing Ships, each of which could carry 200 soldiers.
However, when he had retreated, he had only used about 200 Cloud Piercing Ships. It hadn't even reached the number of 220 Cloud Piercing Ships. This was definitely a number that would make any commander's heart bleed.
This meant that 40% of the army had been left behind in the Wood Silk Realm forever. This meant that 40% of the army had died in battle. It should be known that in a normal war, if more than 60% of the warriors were killed, it could be considered a complete wipeout.
If it was only 40% of the normal Wu army that had died, Young Marshal Huan Ying would not be so heartbroken. Normal martial armies were mainly made up of Constellation Realm martial artists. For them, who ruled almost half of the star realms in the Southern Remnant Desolation and the Vermillion Bird Star System, the loss of Constellation Realm martial artists wasn't unacceptable.
On the contrary, half of the elites that Young Commander Huan Ying had brought with him were among the cultivators that would forever remain in the Wood Puppet World. This included the First Personal Guard Battalion that had sacrificed their lives in the end.
At this moment, more than half of the Second and Third Personal Guard Battalions had died in battle. As for the Blood Massacre Squad, other than the captain, the other nine people had all died in battle.
If it were not for the sake of completing that mission, Young Marshal Huan Ying would probably be the first to be unable to forgive himself for such a huge loss.
If it wasn't for that special mission, just these losses alone would have caused him, who was at the peak of his power, to suffer great criticism.
"Appease my anger?" Young Marshal Huan Ying's gaze was like a sharp sword as he glanced at the people kneeling on the boat. "If I appease my anger, can I revive my brothers who died in battle? Can I revive the Blood Massacre Squad? "
Young Marshal Huan Ying's anger made Yuan He kneel on the ground unable to continue kneeling. This was because he, as a trusted aide, was always in charge of important intelligence work.
After kneeling a few steps, Yuan He kowtowed and said, "Young Marshal Huan Ying, please appease your anger. This is all my fault. I didn't investigate properly before the battle …"
"Okay, I understand. The lack of information has nothing to do with you. That guy suddenly killed his way in!" After venting his anger, Young Marshal Huan Ying stopped his anger and regained his composure.
"But after this, if you miss any important information about that guy, I'll kill you!"
"Yes, Young Marshal Huan Ying!" Yuan He and the others kowtowed heavily on the ground.
After the great battle, the Wood Hulk World might have lost sight of the enemy, but people were still in a state of panic. Few martial artists dared to travel alone, especially around the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World where there were military patrols.
Since the military of the Southern Overwilds Starfield retreated five days ago, nearly 50,000 corpses were left behind within a hundred miles of the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World. Some were from the military of the Southern Overwilds Starfield, and some were from the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World.
Although a large number of people were mobilized in the past five days and the battlefield was mostly cleaned up, there was still a bloody stench in the air when they passed by this place. The murderous aura was so strong that some timid birds flew past, and some even fell to the ground.
The original ground had turned blood-brown. Some of the soil had even congealed with flesh and internal organs. When the newly recruited patrolling soldiers passed by, they couldn't help but turn pale.
One could imagine how tragic this battle was. Although the military of the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World didn't kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of their own, there were still many martial artists who died or were severely injured.
In the past five days, the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World was filled with military soldiers who were recuperating. The only abnormality was that the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World was unusually quiet during the past five days, except for the day of the great battle.
If someone was paying attention, they would notice that none of the higher-ups of the Wood Hulk World were present in the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World. The only one in charge was the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, Fu Xinghe. Even the Commander-in-Chief of the Right Army, Jiao Qi, wasn't in the Abode.
Five days ago, Ling Dong and Di Nankun, the Young Heavenly Lord, had gathered together after the army of the Outskirts of Desolation had retreated to the Northern Heavenly Wall after some arrangements had been made. They had led the most elite troops of the Wood Barbarian Realm straight to the Northern Heavenly Wall.
Although they already had a bad feeling, they still insisted on searching for the Heavenly Lord of Heaven's Abode. They hadn't returned for five days.
After more than ten days of war, the military soldiers of the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World were still in a tense state. Unknowingly, a wavering brilliance suddenly appeared in the Southern Heavenly Wall. The sharp-eyed scouts had already noticed it.
This discovery shocked the Celestial Lord of Heaven's Abode of the Wood Hulk World. After reporting to the higher-ups, the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, Fu Xinghe, personally led a group of troops to surround the light.
"Something is strange. Be careful. Try to capture him alive!" Fu Xinghe, the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, gave the order when he saw the martial artist rushing over from the Southern Heavenly Wall.
However, at this moment, Fu Xinghe realized that the martial artist actually revealed a look of ecstasy when he saw them. Following that, a Fu Ling appeared out of thin air and emitted a dazzling brilliance. Fu Xinghe turned pale with fright. A weak but sharp voice rang out, "Quick, bring me to the Young Heavenly Lord. I have an urgent matter to report to the Young Heavenly Lord!"
Fu Xinghe, who recognized the Fu Ling, rushed up and grabbed the Celestial Monarch Realm martial artist's collar tightly. He shouted, "Quick, tell me! Where is the Heavenly Lord? Where is the Heavenly Lord that the Heavenly Lord Guards are protecting? "
Unfortunately, before that person could answer Fu Xinghe's question, that Celestial Monarch Realm martial artist's eyes rolled back and he immediately fainted. Fu Xinghe was shocked and flustered.
In the next moment, Fu Xinghe's angry roar resounded throughout the Celestial Monarch's Residence. "Quick, find the best healing elixir and wood-type martial artist who is best at treating internal injuries. Save this person's life and reward him with a million crystal stones. A million crystal stones!"
At the same time, several talisman lights streaked across the sky and rushed towards the Northern Heavenly Wall.
About eighteen hours later, which was more than half a day later, a Cloud-Piercing Ship charged towards the Constellation Heavenly Monarch's Residence in the Wood Silk Realm at a terrifying speed. When it approached, there were no signs of it slowing down. If the Cloud-Piercing Ship had not issued a pass talisman in advance, the military troops of the Constellation Heavenly Monarch's Residence in the Wood Silk Realm would have thought that the enemy had launched another attack.
"Strange. We searched the Northern Heavenly Wall but didn't find anything. There are actually survivors of the Heavenly Lord Guards who escaped from the Southern Heavenly Wall." After rushing into the Cloud-Piercing Ship of the Celestial Monarch's Residence, Ling Dong asked the Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun, who was pacing back and forth anxiously.
The Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun acted as if he didn't hear Ling Dong's words. He just kept urging the Zhou Tianshen Envoy driving the ship, saying, "Quick, quick, go faster!"
As the Cloudpiercing Ship let out a shrill noise that sounded as if it was about to fall apart, it came to a sudden stop, causing many Universal Divine Envoys to stagger as it came to a stop inside the Residence of Celestial Lord of Wood Sprite Realm.
Fortunately, it was a Zhou Tianshen Envoy driving the ship. If it had been anyone else, they wouldn't have been able to stop at such a high speed.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, Fu Xinghe, was already waiting outside. After alighting from the ship, the Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun quickly asked, "Commander-in-Chief Fu, do you have any news of the Heavenly Lord's whereabouts? Are there any other scattered soldiers?"
Hearing this, the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, Fu Xinghe, had a grave expression. "Young Heavenly Lord, the Heavenly Lord Guard fainted after we arrived. His injuries were too severe. However, after treatment, his injuries have mostly recovered. However, he still hasn't woken up … So, we haven't received any news yet! As for the other scattered soldiers, I've already sent people to search the other three Heavenly Walls … "
"Lead the way. Bring me to see the Heavenly Lord Guard who escaped!" Before Fu Xinghe could finish, the Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun pushed everyone aside and rushed outside. Fu Xinghe hurriedly led the way.
Fifteen minutes later, Di Nankun and a few others stood in front of a sickbed. Their expressions were extremely ugly.
"Young Heavenly Lord, this is the situation. This Heavenly Lord Guard is injured both internally and externally. His Divine Soul is severely damaged. Even if we use the treasures in the residence that are slightly effective in healing Divine Soul injuries, it will take at least a few years for him to wake up … Perhaps …" The Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, Fu Xinghe, had an ugly expression on his face.
"A few years, a few years …" The Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun's face suddenly turned ghastly pale. "The Heavenly Lord's whereabouts are unknown. We're the only hope and the only person who can possibly know the truth. Yet, you're telling me that it will take a few years for him to wake up. You can wait, but I can't …"
Di Nankun, who had been under immense pressure and agitation for more than ten days, instantly went into a frenzy when he heard such grievous news. Fu Xinghe and the others were shocked. They didn't know what to do.
At this moment, Ling Dong suddenly yelled. There was a mysterious sound in his voice that calmed people's hearts. At the same time, Ling Dong yelled, "Young Heavenly Lord, I can heal the Divine Soul injuries and wake this person up immediately!"
The Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun, who was in a frenzy, was immediately stunned. The Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, Fu Xinghe, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Right Army, Jiao Qi, looked at Ling Dong at the same time. The same thought flashed across their minds. "Heal the Divine Soul injuries and wake him up immediately? Are you trying to fool a child? " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
