Chapter 1161: "Mob Slap - Second Form (2)"
Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao's appearance, caused a strange eerie silence to fall over the fiercely intense battlefield, with only the sound of the howling gale sweeping past everyone's ears.
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes and looked at the chaotic battlefield, looking at the armies of the three allied countries that had surged like the tide. When she saw the three country allied armies rushing towards the gates of the Imperial City, her rage had risen to a boiling point!
If she had arrived just a moment later, the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City would have been instantly overrun by the three countries' forces, and her family members would have been mercilessly trampled by the armoured cavalry of the allied forces!
The rage within Jun Wu Xie made her eyes turn impossibly frosty. She turned her head slightly, to search within the Imperial City for familiar figures.
And her eyes quickly met those of Jun Xian's. Cold and indifferent as she always was, her gaze at that moment wavered slightly.
[Grandfather.....]
Jun Wu Xie wanted so much to run to Jun Xian, to ask her Grandfather whether he had been well all this time. But she really did not have the time for that now. She turned her head back to stare at the armies screaming in horror before her and she drew in a deep breath.
The gazes of the three countries' allied army were now all focused upon Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao. They had never seen anything so horrifying. Several thousand soldiers suddenly turning into blood and gore in a single blink and the several hurricanes still had not stopped. They continued to howl as they spun endlessly, as good as having an impenetrable high steel wall before them, that blocked the way into the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City completely, keeping the allied armies of the three countries, blocked outside!
"Who are you people! Why are you making an enemy out of our three countries! ?" The Commander in Chief of the Condor Country infused his entire body with spirit power, and shouted out towards Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao hovering in the air.
Within the howling of the gale, Jun Wu Xie lifted her chin slightly and her chilling gaze swept over each and every of the enemy armies as she said grandly: "Hither stands the Emperor of the Fire state, and all hither needeth no longer dream of setting one foot into the Imperial City!"
Jun Wu Xie's voice was tinged with a trace of frost, and highly domineering, as it resounded upon the expanse of land.
Her words shocked everyone so much they gasped loudly!
[Fire Country, that is the mightiest country throughout the lands!]
[Why had the Fire Country's Emperor appeared in the Qi Kingdom? And why would he impede the steps of the three countries in their attack?]
Countless questions swam in their minds. The words, Fire Country, was just like a tall mountain, suddenly pressing heavily down upon all their chests.
Besides the Condor Country, the Commanders of the other two countries had immediately upon hearing Jun Wu Xie's declaration, found their bodies to be trembling uncontrollably. They were not strong countries, and they had needed to form alliances to attack the Qi Kingdom, hence, it was needless to mention just how miniscule they were before the mighty Fire Country.
Never in their lives would they have ever thought they would one day make an enemy out of the Fire Country!
The other two Commanders were now in a state of panic. Attacking the Qi Kingdom had not made them feel pressure, but if they had to face the Fire Country..... They completely did not even dare to think about it!
Almost immediately after ascertaining Jun Wu Xie's identity, they drove their horses into a sprint to come before the Condor Country's Commander in Chief and asked highly nervously: "Is that really the Fire Country's Emperor? Why does the Fire Country want to interfere with the Qi Kingdom's affairs! ?"
A tiny country like the Qi Kingdom, would never be able to establish any links with the Fire Country, but the youth had claimed to be the Fire Country's Emperor and that had made their hearts panic.
"What he is wearing upon his head, is indeed the Fire Country's Emperor's crown." The Condor Country's Commander in Chief admitted through gritted teeth.
Not long ago, the Fire Country had indeed sent news about the change of regime and there had also been rumours that said that the throne was handed to a just a young youth. Under the Heavens, people who dared impersonate the Fire Country's Emperor did not exist.
Chapter 1162: "Mob Slap - Second Form (3)"
The Condor Country's Commander in Chief's words extinguished the last ray of hope in the hearts of the other two commanders.
When the Fire Country's Emperor had personally appeared outside the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City and made his stance clear that no one was allowed to take a single step into the Imperial City, naturally none of them possessed the guts to challenge the Fire Country's might. Against such an immensely powerful country, if they really provoked and angered them, obliterating both their countries would be as easy as taking a drink.
"For no reason, why is the Fire Country getting themselves involved in a matter like this? The Qi Kingdom is so far away from the Fire Country, so why are they stretching their hand so far out for! ?" A commander asked, his face deathly pale.
"What are we going to do now? Are we really going to strike against the Fire Country's Emperor? That..... that might not really be suitable." Another commander said, the expression on his face flustered.
The Condor Country's Commander in Chief's brows creased together. The current situation was not one that he had ever thought would happen. Although the Condor Country was strong and powerful, but compared to the highly prosperous and powerful Fire Country who was securely lodged in the seat of supremacy, they were still a distance behind. If they were to really face off with the Fire Country, they would have nothing to gain out of it.
At that point, even the Condor Country's Commander in Chief could not help himself any longer but started to show signs of hesitation.
"It is merely just an Emperor and you are all already shaking in your boots? What a joke." The youth who had been watching the three Commanders from the side saw their ashen paces said with a sneer.
The Commanders from the other two countries immediately turned to look at him, their faces frowning slightly.
This person had been with the Condor Country's forces right from the beginning. Highly good looking, his body tall and slender, not looking the least bit like he was from the Condor Country's army. They had initially not cared much about it, but along the way, the Condor Country's Commander in Chief had been highly respectful to the youth and it could even be said that the Commander in Chief obeyed him in many instances, making the other two Commanders not dare to underestimate the youth's identity.
But now, the Fire Country had joined in the battle and although only the Emperor alone had come, everyone there however knew what that truly meant. But even then, the youth was still saying such things flippantly which greatly displeased the other two Commanders.
"Just merely an Emperor? That's putting it too lightly! Do you know how powerful the Fire Country is? Since the Fire Country was founded, they had always sat in the seat reigning supreme over the various countries. Many of those who had overestimated themselves and provoked them had all in the end lost their home countries where their lands became part of the Fire Country, to forever disappear from the world!" One of the Commanders could not help but retort in contempt.
The youth glanced at him and his eyes flashed with displeasure. The Condor Country's Commander in Chief's heart filled with terror and he quickly said: "Lord Lin Xiao, please do not be angry. What he spoke was the truth as the Fire Country is really not that easy to deal with."
The youth named Lin Xiao laughed coldly and swung his eyes onto the Commander who had spoken rudely to say in a sneer: "Angry? What is there for me to get angry with with a bunch of trash like this? I just think that you all really wouldn't be able to sink any lower. An alliance of four countries just to invade a tiny Qi Kingdom and it had taken you so much effort. And now only a measly two people from the Fire Country had appeared and it has already frightened you into such a state. You guys are just a joke."
The expression on the Condor Country's Commander in Chief's face wasn't looking too good but he held himself back, while the faces of the other two Commanders had already darkened completely. Although they were nowhere near as powerful as the Condor Country, but as Chief Commanders of their countries' military, they had never had to suffer such insults!
"Just two people? Don't tell me you did not see it. When those two people appeared, several thousands of our soldiers outside the Imperial City's gates had all died without even having their bodies intact! You are really so foolish to think that the Fire Country's Emperor would suddenly appear alone? That man beside him, possesses extraordinary powers!" One of the Commanders spat through gritted teeth.
Chapter 1163: "Mob Slap - Second Form (4)"
Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed as he stared at the two Commanders.
"What you two are trying to say is that you do not intend to carry on fighting?"
The two commanders immediately retorted: "How are we to fight? That is the Fire Country's Emperor right there! We had come here merely to support and assist the Condor Country's army anyway, and are not that determined to completely annihilate the Qi Kingdom. We have already spent so much time here and have done enough. If we are expected to make the Fire Country our enemy, I am afraid we will not be able to do that!"
[No matter how powerful the Condor Country is, it isn't as important as their lives.]
Lin Xiao did not say a word, but his eyes were already shining with a malicious glint. The Condor Country's Commander in Chief detected the change in the youth and had wanted to say something but was already too late!
Two rays of Purple Spirit energy shot out from Lin Xiao's hands, coiling straight around the two Commanders' neck!
In a blink, the two muscular Commanders clad in their armour who were seated atop their warhorses were lifted into the air by the two rays of spirit energy, their throats being squeezed by a powerful force, cutting off their air supply bit by bit. The two men kicked and struggled in mid air, their horrified gazes locked upon Lin Xiao whose body was glowing with the flare of Purple Spirit energy.
[Purple Spirit!]
[That weak and frail looking youth was actually a Purple Spirit at the pinnacle of power!]
[Invisible and formless, the fear gripped the hearts of the two Commanders, their eyes wide with horror.]
"The two of you listen here. Today, you'll fight whether you like it or not. If I find out that anyone is thinking of escaping, I will make them realise what it means to live a fate worse than death!" Lin Xiao said, his eyes narrowed to a slit, the malicious expression on his face undoubtable.
"Do you understand?" He continued to ask.
The two Commanders immediately nodded, not daring to resist any further.
Lin Xiao then retracted his spirit power and the two men fell crashing to the ground, gasping heavily for air with their hands grasping at their necks, the shock still evident in their eyes as they stared at Lin Xiao.
"Get your sorry behinds back to your armies and when the Condor Country's bugle sounds, both of you would do well to launch an attack immediately!" Lin Xiao threatened coldly.
The two Commanders scrambled onto their horses and fled back to their armies.
"Now, sound the bugle to signal the attack and don't take up anymore of my time. It's just two useless pieces of trash and they were actually able to scare all of you to such a state." Lin Xiao said with a sneer as he looked at the Condor Country's Commander in Chief.
Under Lin Xiao's orders, the Condor Country's Commander in Chief had no choice but to comply and the bugle was sounded quickly. After a momentary quiet, the armies finally launched another attack upon the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City!
Jun Wu Xie stood in midair as she stared at the armies of the three countries moving to launch another attack and the murder in her eyes could no longer be contained.
"Before the Fire Country's army gets here, we cannot let them get past those gates." Jun Wu Xie said, her eyes narrowing up. She needed to buy enough time to drag it out till the Qi Kingdom's final hope arrives!
"As you wish." Jun Wu Yao turned his head to look smilingly at Jun Wu Xie.
[As long as she wants it, as long as she seeks it, he will satisfy them all one by one.]
Originally, there had only been several hurricanes blocking the way outside the Imperial City. But just as Jun Wu Yao's voice fell, the number of those hurricanes suddenly grew to become ten times the original number!
The densely gathered hurricanes fully blocked the way towards every inch of the city's walls, which completely denied anyone of a chance to attack the city!
Those who had rushed to surround the Imperial City had in an instant, been sucked into the hurricanes and disappeared from sight!
The quantity of the highly deadly hurricanes was increasing quickly, driving great fear and terror into the heart of the Condor Country's Commander in Chief and even Lin Xiao who had been steadily cool all this time had shown signs of cracking.
Chapter 1164: "Mob Slap - Second Form (5)"
All of a sudden, Lin Xiao charged out front from the back of the army of soldiers. He had not intended to involve himself in such a rudimentary level battle of the Lower Realm but the man who had created those hurricanes was definitely someone who was not that simple. In order for the plan to continue to be executed, he had to make a move!
Lin Xiao turned into a purple ray of light as he charged to go to the front of the army and a pair of wings formed with bones suddenly appeared on his back, bringing him up in mid air, to come face to face Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao!
"Who are you?" Lin Xiao's eyes had narrowed to a slit and he did not even glance at Jun Wu Xie even once, but fixed his eyes squarely upon Jun Wu Yao. He knew that the strange hurricanes were all the work of this devilishly handsome looking man.
Jun Wu Yao's brow lifted as he looked at the wings made up of bones and the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Bone Shifting Tribe? Flying series ring spirit?"
Surprise showed on Lin Xiao's face. He had not expected that in the Lower Realm, there would actually be a person who would know about his origins with just one glance, and had even known that the wings on his back was actually his ring spirit.
"You are from the Middle Realm?" Lin Xiao asked warily, but he did not detect any spirit powers emitting from Jun Wu Yao's body at all.
Jun Wu Yao ignored him completely and turned to look at Jun Wu Xie.
"Want him alive?"
Jun Wu Xie nodded.
Lin Xiao glared at Jun Wu Yao with his jaws clenched tightly, thinking just what his words had meant.
However, when Jun Wu Yao turned his head back, Lin Xiao saw a pair of violet eyes, looking every inch like a demon, that made his blood freeze up in an instant.
"How can it be possible....." Lin Xiao's eyes bulged with pure incredulity. Under the Heavens, a person who possessed violet coloured eyes, was only that one man in the legends!
[He didn't die?]
[Impossible!]
Endless terror instantly shot throughout Lin Xiao's body. He suddenly flapped his wings as the blood quickly drained out from his face, acting like he had seen a ghost, turning himself around to fly speedily in the opposite direction!
[Run!]
[He needed to escape!]
[Or he will die!]
"Running away?" Jun Wu Yao lifted one side of his brows and he suddenly lifted his free hand as a black coloured mist shot out towards Lin Xiao who was attempting to escape. The black mist was moving at a speed faster than Lin Xiao's flying and in the blink of an eye, Lin Xiao was hopelessly tangled within that black mist, as a loud cry came exploding out of his throat!
No matter how hard he flapped his bone wings thinking to escape this nightmarish place, the black mist was dragging his quickly back to come before Jun Wu Yao!
"Let me go! Let me go! Do not kill me!" The smug arrogance on his face disappeared and was not about to come back, the panic and fear on his face making him look rather wretched.
On the hand that Jun Wu Yao had lifted, his fingers slowly closed.
Excruciating pain spread through every single inch of Lin Xiao's body. He howled and pleaded incessantly. Not even in his dreams would he have thought that here in the Lower Realm, he would meet the demon who had made the entire Middle Realm completely submit!
"I beg you, do not kill me! Da....." Before Lin Xiao had been able to finish his words, the black mist had already wrapped him up entirely in darkness, swallowing him up together with the words he had not managed to finish saying.
Jun Wu Yao's violet eyes was suddenly once again replaced by black, an icy murderous aura behind the smile as the corners of his mouth curled up. He turned his head back and stared at Jun Wu Xie who body was glowing with a blue spirit glow. "Does this mean that Little Xie is intending to fight?"
Jun Wu Xie's cold voice replied: "I want to personally exact vengeance for the Rui Lin Army, with my own two hands!"
Upon saying that, she suddenly broke free from Jun Wu Yao's embrace, leaping right towards the densely packed army at her feet!
Chapter 1165: "Mob Slap - Second Form (6)"
Right at the moment that Jun Wu Xie threw herself downwards in a leap, the little black cat on her shoulder suddenly grew in size in midair, to morph into a magnificent and ferocious massive black beast that caught Jun Wu Xie firmly as they landed!
Like a ravenous and ferocious tiger that just came down the mountain, it charged right towards the mass of soldiers!
Appearing suddenly right in the midst of the flustered army of soldiers, Jun Wu Xie's blue spirit power glow flared brightly, her eyes cold as steely knife points, delivering merciless slaughter onto the soldiers together with the ferocious black beast!
The blue glowing figure cut like a sickle through multiple thousands of soldiers in a blue arc, executing a mad massacre over the people whose hands were stained with the blood of the Rui Lin Army's soldiers.
Jun Wu Yao stood in midair, reaching his hand out to open a humongous cloth sack hanging from his hip.
Lord Meh Meh and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit suddenly popped their tiny heads out from the sack curiously.
"Meh?" Lord Meh Meh stared at the dark mass of people below. On the day that Jun Xie had "married" Qu Xing Rui, as Qu Wen Hao's consciousness had been forcibly restored temporarily, he had revoked the control the Spirit Taming Bone Flute had over Lord Meh Meh on that same day.
"Puu?" The Sacrificial Blood Rabbit tugged at its pair of big ears and spotted Jun Wu Xie charging among the mass of people in slaughter. Its fur immediately turned a bright red shade of blood and its blood eyes shone with an insatiable bloodlust!
"Go." Jun Wu Yao picked up the two foolish beasts from within the sack. When Jun Wu Xie had announced that they would be bringing forward their departure, he had decided on his own to bring the two little fellas with them.
Let these soldiers from the three country alliance have a taste of the kind of terror and havoc these Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts were capable of wrecking, onto them!
At the moment that Lord Meh Meh and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit were thrown down, two brilliantly bright flashes of light exploded in the air!
The tiny balls of light expanded in an instant, as if two tiny suns had suddenly dropped from the Heavens, blinding everyone around them!
In the next instant!
Two enormous Spirit Beasts appeared within the sight of the soldiers. The gigantic white beast that Lord Meh Meh had morphed into had upon landing, immediately crushed an innumerable number of enemy soldiers. The Sacrificial Blood Rabbit was quite a lot smaller in size than Lord Meh Meh, but its speed was astoundingly fast, like a red bolt of lightning flashing speedily through the mass of soldiers, that left behind a long trail of blood and gore in its wake.
With two Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts added in, the entire battlefield quickly erupted into absolute and perfect chaos!
The Commander in Chief of the Condor Country sat atop his horse right at the back of the armies, watching in flabbergasted silence at the mess the entire battlefield had turned into.
He really could not believe his own eyes. All his previous misgivings had only been due to the Fire Country's military might alone, but now, without even having seen a shadow of the Fire Country's army, just the Fire Country's Emperor himself and two Spirit Beasts had already thrown the entire battlefield into utter chaos! And with the layer upon layer of hurricanes in front of the Imperial City, how were they going to launch an attack on the city?
Whereas for that overbearing "Lord Lin Xiao" who looked at everyone with contempt in his eyes, even he had disappeared from sight completely after a single strike from the flawlessly handsome looking man. Fear grew exponentially as it creeped into his heart and spread everywhere!
[It was only two people!]
[Just two people only!]
[But they had put up a protection around the Qi Kingdom as impenetrable as a thick steel wall that they were unable to overcome.]
[Against such terrifying power, who would be able to go against them? !]
Nearly three million soldiers in the enemy's army and their attack was being held down by just Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao. And throughout the entire battle, Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao did not even suffer so much as a scratch, while the party suffering heavy casualties was instead the armies of the three country alliance!
The Condor Country's Commander in Chief's hand gripping the reins began to shake and tremble.
A fifteen year old Blue spirit! And a man so powerful he took down a Purple Spirit at the pinnacle of power in one second! With two more Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts added into the mix, how were they expected to continue with this battle! ?
Chapter 1166: "Mob Slap - Second Form (7)"
However, before the Condor Country's Commander in Chief had even recovered from the shock, a bright light flashed from Jun Wu Xie's fingers!
Another white figure suddenly appeared in the midst of the crowd of soldiers, kicking up another storm of bloody slaughter!
Jun Wu Xie had summoned Drunk Lotus, and the killing was getting more and more intense!
Within the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City, all the soldiers standing on the city's wall stood completely stunned as they saw what was happening right before their eyes. They could not even understand everything that was happening in front of them. Why had the Fire Country's Emperor suddenly appeared to help them?
What shocked them even more was the extremely young looking little Emperor could be so ferocious the very moment he struck.
[Blue spirit!]
[That was a blue spirit!]
[A fifteen year old blue spirit! A fact that was just too unbelievable to all of them!]
[The most shocking sight before them, were those two jaw dropping magnificent Spirit Beasts!]
Whether it was from seeing their attack power or judging from their mammoth size, it was easy to guess that they were definitely of the supreme Guardian Grade.
A Guardian Grade Spirit Beast, was extremely rare by itself. Needless to mention one that remained by the side of a person, few people have even sighted one at all! But this little Emperor of the Fire Country, had actually brought out two Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts, which was just impossible to all of them there.
Even the Thousand Beast City who were well known for taming Spirit Beasts, could only make use of their city's legendary treasure, the Spirit Taming Bone Flute to tame one Guardian Grade Spirit Beast. To be able to have two Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts follow a person's orders, was just too ludicrous to believe and had never been heard of before!
The Qi Kingdom's soldiers were astounded and the citizens could not believe that the Heavens would give to them such a bright ray of hope right at the final moment.
Only the Rui Lin Army.....
Only all the Rui Lin Army's soldiers in the city looked through the broken gates, through the impossible wall of wind, their eyes fixed upon the tiny figure perched upon the massive black beast's back.
In one moment, the entire group of stalwart and steel willed men found their eyes red rimmed.
Others might not know who the Fire Country's little Emperor was, but these men from the Rui Lin Army knew that person better than anyone!
[That massive black beast with a gold streak on its chest, wasn't that the same one that belonged to their very own Young Miss! ?]
[Under the Heavens, the only one person who could ride on that massive black beast, was only their Young Miss of the Rui Lin Army!]
[Jun Wu Xie!]
[Their Young Miss had returned!]
[The pillar of their hearts has come back!]
That one discovery made all the Rui Lin Army soldiers who had been prepared to die fighting their last battle suddenly feel the blood boil once again in their hearts!
"Everyone, follow me to charge right out! We cannot allow His Majesty of the Fire Country to fight on our battlefield for us, while we stand here to watch the show!" Long Qi was the first one to recover and react, and he immediately charged to go outside the city's gates, issuing a rousing call with his fist in the air!
He knew, Jun Wu Xie would never abandon the Rui Lin Army, never give up on the Qi Kingdom. No matter how she came to be the Emperor of the Fire Country, she would still be their very own Young Miss!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Every single Rui Lin Army soldier had eyes filled with murder, all ready to charge out of the city to fight alongside Jun Wu Xie.
But Jun Wu Yao who was just above the city's wall suddenly turned his head to look at the twenty over thousand Rui Lin Army soldiers gathered eagerly near the gates. He smile faintly at them and said: "Apologies, I cannot allow any of you to go out there."
"Young Master Wu Yao! Please open up a way for us before the gates! Let us go out there and help!" Long Qi pleaded earnestly as he looked at Jun Wu Yao. They cannot let Jun Wu Xie fight out there alone.
Jun Wu Yao then replied with a smile: "I will not."
"Why?" Long Qi asked helplessly.
"I do not want Little Xie to be pained any further. There isn't many of you left in the Rui Lin Army and any more losses incurred might make her cry." Jun Wu Yao said and turned away, to look at Jun Wu Xie continuing to deal out her unstoppable massacre.
Chapter 1167: "Mob Slap - Second Form (8)"
Jun Wu Yao's words, made the men in the Rui Lin Army fall silent.
The invasion of the four countries' allied forces had inflicted very severe losses upon the Rui Lin Army. They could no longer keep count of the number of brothers they had lost on the battlefield and couldn't remember how they had managed to climb out from among those lifeless bodies. It wasn't that their hearts did not feel the pain, it wasn't that they did not harbour hatred, but they just did not have the time all this while that allowed them to let the pain sink in.
Jun Wu Xie's concern for them plucked right on the string stretched taut over their hearts. They understood why Jun Wu Xie thought that way, where she would rather fight the battle alone, than lose another single one of their men.
"But....." Long Qi seemed to want to say something more.
But Jun Wu Yao shook his head and said: "Trust her."
Long Qi gaped like a goldfish, unable to say anything.
At that moment, Jun Xian came walking over. He placed a hand on Long Qi's shoulder and Jun Xian raised his head to look at Jun Wu Yao.
"You can ascertain..... us of her safety?" As a member of the Jun Family, Jun Xian was feeling extremely proud that he had such an exemplary example of a fine granddaughter but he could not help feeling the worries of a grandfather.
Jun Wu Yao smiled at that. "I am certain."
"Alright." Jun Xian nodded his head, and suppressed the worry deep within his heart, as he turned to look at the soldiers within the city.
"The entire army is to make good use of the time now to properly reassess the situation. Carry the injured to get them treated and keep your spirits up!" The battle was still not finished and no matter how powerful Jun Wu Xie was, she would not be able to last indefinitely. What they needed to do now, was not to worry themselves to death standing there, but to make full use of the time that Jun Wu Xie was fighting to gain for them, to regroup the utterly wrecked and exhausted army, to ready themselves to face the upcoming battle.
With Jun Xian order, all the soldiers within the city quickly readjusted themselves in that period and the citizens helped to quickly carry the wounded to put them in a safer location, while all the physicians within the city poured out to quickly treat the wounds of the heroes who fought to defend them.
Mo Qian Yuan summoned all the Imperial Physicians within the Palace and they brought along all the herbs and elixirs that could be of any use to help with the situation here.
At that moment, what all of them cared about was not the value of those medicine, but more on how many of the Qi Kingdom's warriors they would be able to save!
Outside the city, the attack of the allied forces from the three countries were completely stopped by Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao, but they still had not given up on invading into the Imperial City. Arrows tipped with fire were sent flying into the Imperial City in endless volleys, the arrows passing over the wall of wind, to land inside, igniting clusters of fire to burn within the Imperial City.
The physically exhausted soldiers wanted to go put out the fires, but were pressed down by the common citizens, asking them to get as much rest as possible, and leave the putting out of the fires to them.
Seeing the many figures of the citizens running around, watching the young children carrying water buckets as they followed behind the busy adults, the soldiers who had undergone the fiery trials of war were highly moved.
These were the citizens they had protected by putting their lives on the line. The sacrifices made were all worth it!
The strength of every single person that could be drawn upon had been mobilized. Medicine, food, water, blankets..... Anything and everything that their soldiers could use were brought by the citizens to be pushed into the hands of the warriors.
Mo Qian Yuan stood directing all of it, his golden robe singed by fire in several places and was in a sorry state. The crown which symbolised his Imperial authourity that was upon his head had fallen to the ground in the midst of all the running about and he had not even had the time to retrieve it.
One sees true feelings in times of adversity. At this time when the Qi Kingdom was in trapped in a crisis, the determination and belief that had been hidden in the souls of the people of the kingdom had completely shone. They banded together in unity, not a word of spoken about giving up!
Out on the battlefield, the number of kills Jun Wu Xie scored could no longer be measured. Bright red blood dyed her silver armour completely red, the same colour as her eyes as she delivered the all out massacre upon her enemies.
Chapter 1168: "Mob Slap - Second Form (9)"
[Kill!]
That was the one and only thought in Jun Wu Xie's mind.
With Jun Wu Xie having already broken through to the blue spirit, and the perfect coordination from the black beast, it allowed them to weave with ease through the chaotic battlefield, the speed of the black beast being at a pace that those soldiers could never dream of keeping up with.
The intensely overpowering stench of blood had already numbed Jun Wu Xie's sense of smell.
She was not a person inclined towards slaughter, but in order to seek revenge for that eighty thousand spirits of the Rui Lin Army soldiers, to exact vengeance upon the Qi Kingdom's soldiers and citizens who had been buried under the flames of this war, she didn't mind turning into a demon that climbed up from the very depths of hell!
Kill to stop the killing!
The Chief Commanders from the other two armies went running in a fluster to seek out the Condor Country's Commander in Chief. They had personally witnessed Lin Xiao being captured when that man standing in midair had not done anything much. The situation had turned into such a disadvantageous state and they really did not dare to continue on with the attack!
"What should we do? That Lord Lin Xiao of yours was dealt with in a single stroke and if we continue the attack, our losses will be be too much to take!" From the tone of the Chief Commander, it had already betrayed the obvious fear he was feeling.
"We're not fighting anymore! You want to attack, you do it yourself! Now that the Fire Country's Emperor has already appeared, he had most definitely not come here alone. The Fire Country's grand army will surely arrive at anytime and I am withdrawing my army from here! In this incident, we have really been dragged into it by the Condor Country. It's just so....." The other Chief Commander was already toying with the idea of retreat and he was about to curse out when the might of the Condor Country reduced his intended outburst into an intelligible grumble.
The Condor Country's Commander in Chief recovered from his shock as the loud complaints from the two other men rocked his heart.
[Should they continue to fight?]
Even Lin Xiao had been taken down. And he had possessed the power of the Purple Spirit, the pinnacle of power. With an enemy who was able to so easily squash a Purple Spirit, would they still have a chance to win?
At that moment, even he had the idea of retreat gnawing at his heart. Finally when Lord Meh Meh's nine tails threw hundreds of soldiers into the air in a single sweep, the Condor Country's Commander in Chief immediately made his decision!
"Retreat! Every man pull back!" He immediately got the bugle sounded to signal an all out retreat and all the soldiers that had surrounded the Imperial City finally began to recede back just like the tide going out.
No one had ever thought, that with the appearance of Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao, the allied forces of the three country had not only found themselves unable to launch any attacks upon the Imperial City, but had in such a short period of time made the enemy beat such a hasty retreat.
Jun Wu Xie's unhindered slaughter, Drunk Lotus's brutal power and the appearance of the two mammoth sized Spirit Beasts had completely crushed the slightest inclination to fight in any of them.
And one more thing terrorized them more than everything else, and that was Jun Wu Yao who had not really made any more moves against them!
The sheer numbers of hurricanes surrounding the outside of the Imperial City was already not a power that a mortal could possess and who knew what kind of terrifying consequences he would bring if he really made his move?
Upon the Imperial City's wall, the Qi Kingdom's soldiers could see the three countries' allied forces retreating. Finally after being under such a long period of depression, the soldiers exploded into joyous and raucous cheers in sheer delight! They raised the swords in their hands high up and waved them in the air, and the Qi Kingdom's flag that had been scorched by fire was pulled down, as it was quickly replaced with brand new piece that was immediately hoisted up to flutter high above the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City once more!
It was just like this tiny but highly resilient kingdom, as under the fierce howling wind, it stretched out fluttering brightly, and would not sag and fall!
The enemy armies beat a hasty retreat, but Jun Wu Xie did not intend to spare them so easily.
She led Lord Meh Meh together with the others in pursuit, but she had just run a few steps when she was suddenly picked up by Jun Wu Yao who looped an arm around her from behind, to fly up into the air.
"Look." Jun Wu Yao said while raising his hand, to point in the direction that the enemy armies were retreating in.
Chapter 1169: "Raging Purple Spirit (1)"
In the direction that the three country allied armies were retreating into, a large army was charging right towards them!
Above that army, flew the banner of the Fire Country!
Under the strong wind blowing, the banner fluttered, as war drums shook the skies!
The three country allied armies who were in the midst of their retreat would not even in their dreams have thought, that at the very moment they turned to pull themselves back, they would run smack right into the Fire Country's army!
At the forefront of the Fire Country's army, was Qiao Chu and the other youths who were leading. Under the strong gale blowing, they waved at the faraway Jun Wu Xie, their faces brimming with vigor, looking highly excited. After defeating the Prosper Country's soldiers, they had not tallied even a moment and had immediately set out to come to the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City. The blood splatters on their bodies had not even dried out and they were already seen approaching all covered in dust.
The armies of the three countries found themselves suddenly faced with the Fire Country's army and a mournful wail erupted from the entire army!
"All charge!" Qiao Chu leapt up from his horse, and he flew right towards the armies of the three countries, the spirit ring in his hand suddenly emitting a bright light, to throw an enormous Ying Yang Bear into the middle of the enemy soldiers. Its enormous body was like a meat grinder, when in an instant, its two powerful bear paws stretched out to its sides to send all the enemy soldiers surrounding it flying through the air!
Following right behind, Hua Yao, Fan Zhuo, Fei Yan and Rong Ruo leapt into battle at the same time, their ring spirits appearing in successive blinding flashes of light, immediately turning into battle machines to push right into the thousands upon thousands of enemy soldiers before them in a mad rush!
The Fire Country's army were just one step behind them and they crashed heavily right into the soldiers of the three countries' allied armies in an orgy of slaughter!
The armies of the three countries' allied forces had already been thrown into a fluster by Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao's attack and they had lost their will to fight, the aggression of soldiers dissipated as they turned in flight, to run away like dogs whose owners have died. Now they had just found themselves on the receiving end of a head on charge by the Fire Country's ferocious army and everything descended into chaos for all of them.
The Fire Country's army combined power, was inferior only to the Rui Lin Army. Although they were not like the Rui Lin Army where one soldier could take on ten men, but the ferocity of one million lions with the boosted morale from a recent victory, it brought the power of those soldiers to a whole new level at that moment!
The armies clashed, a battle of will.
The three country's allied armies, lost badly in that aspect!
Moreover, among their armies, they did not have any exceptionally outstanding soldiers, that was able to stand up against Qiao Chu and his comrades' dominating presence as they swept over the panicked soldiers!
Under that overwhelming attack, the three country's allied forces were quickly being defeated. They wanted to retreat backwards, but Jun Wu Xie had her two Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts there sealing off their escape route!
Sandwiched from the front and back, the allied armies who had burned and looted throughout the Qi Kingdom for two whole weeks were completely routed in an instant.
Anguished howls and mournful wails sounded from the enemy armies incessantly!
Jun Wu Xie's eyes were still red and bloodshot, her entire body fully covered in blood, but she did not have the slightest intention in stopping her hand.
If she had not come here today, these people before her eyes would definitely not have spared even a single common citizen within the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City who were completely innocent.
On her way here, Jun Wu Xie had already seen too many cities of the Qi Kingdom which had been looted clean, blood covering the entire grounds inside, dead and lifeless bodies left lying everywhere. Those once bustling and prosperous cities, had now turned into cities that stood dead and empty, where everyone even from the elderly in their eighties, all the way down to newborn infants, the enemy had not spared a single one of them!
In Jun Wu Xie's eyes, these men were no longer humans, but cruel and barbaric beasts!
When dealing with brutal beasts, was there a reason for her to be merciful?
With a kick to send the soldiers surrounding her flying, Jun Wu Xie suddenly leapt up from the black beast's back, and when she was in the air, the blue spirit glow around her body suddenly changed into a brilliant flash of purple!
The Purple Spirit manifests!
Chapter 1170: "Raging Purple Spirit (2)"
The Purple Spirit glow shone brilliantly over the top of the armies. That blinding light dazzling everyone among them all.
[Purple Spirit!]
[That's a Purple Spirit!]
Everyone stared in disbelief with their mouths agape, looking at Jun Wu Xie wrapped in that purple glow. They had never ever heard of a fifteen year old youth who had attained the Purple Spirit!
Jun Wu Xie's blue spirit powers earlier had already stunned them and she had suddenly pushed her powers to explode to the Purple Spirit!
That fact made the already demoralised hearts of the enemy soldiers suddenly sink further, falling to the bottom of a deep gorge!
However, the matter had still not reached its end.
After Jun Wu Xie's powers exploded into the Purple Spirit, several other bursts of purple coloured spirit glow lit up within the horde of soldiers in quick succession!
The youths who had charged the most ferociously into the enemy's ranks had suddenly raised their spirit power level to the Purple Spirit as well!
The Purple Spirit that had the people in the world longing hopelessly, an unscalable mountain that had only existed in legends for so many long years, had reappeared right before their eyes today. And at this appearance, there were six of them at the same time!
Despair fell like a heavy shroud over every single soldier of the three countries' allied armies. They had not been able to handle a blue spirit, what could they hope to do against the Purple Spirit, that was the pinnacle of power!
A series of hopeless wails rang out everywhere among the mass of soldiers, the streaks of Purple Spirit glow weaving through them, delivering death and despair.
The Fire Country's army were extraordinarily ferocious, together with the several Purple Spirits pushing the enemy deeper into the abyss, while the two mammoth sized Guardian Grade Spirit Beasts and the unbelievably powerful ring spirits completely crushed any last vestiges of confidence the three countries' allied armies might have left!
It became hopelessly one sided on the battlefield, as within this bloody battle, the enemy soldiers who had butchered countless soldiers in the Qi Kingdom, the invaders and looters of a countless number of the Qi Kingdom's citizens, finally fell in pools of blood.
The allied three countries' military encampment was shrinking continuously, and the Commanders of the armies surrounded within the mass of soldiers had their faces turned pale.
They had advanced triumphantly the entire way and had never thought that they would suffer such a heavy setback right at the final leg!
If not for that ragtag army made up of a motley mix of the Qi Kingdom's citizens that had held them back and dragged out their time, they would have taken over the Qi Kingdom's Imperial City before Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao got here, and the Qi Kingdom would have fallen. And if Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao had not gotten here in time, with the Qi Kingdom fallen, the Qi Kingdom would not have been saved by Fire Country's army.
Get one step wrong, and every step after goes wrong.
It was that very ragtag army that they despised so thoroughly that had saved the Qi Kingdom from final despair, and then the tables had turned, where the Qi Kingdom climbed out from its dire straits while the one fallen into utter despair had become the three country alliance!
When night fell, firelight reddened the sky. Upon the battlefield, countless heaps of dead bodies lay everywhere, as blood flowed into rivers under everyone's feet.
An army that numbered almost three million was cleanly annihilated in half a day. Nobody would ever forget, in the final stages of the battle, when there had still been close to two million soldiers in the allied army, Jun Wu Yao who had been standing at the back of the battle all this time, only smiling and not saying a word, suddenly raised a hand to turn the battlefield into a sea of blood in a single instant. A blood mist had engulfed those two million soldiers in an instant, to leave behind mangled and mutilated bodies, and sticky bloodstains.
Jun Wu Xie stood panting within the sea of bodies, the blood splattered upon her now so thick it was dropping off her, the expression upon her face not showing disgust or disdain, but one of liberation.
She lifted her head, to look up at the sky reddened by the fires lit upon the battlefield, peering at the sprinkling of twinkling stars above, and the bright round moon.
[Vengeance for the Rui Lin Army, for the Qi Kingdom, has finally been exacted!]
