Chapter 105: Ten thousand cavalry pressuring the city
Dark clouds filled the sky and thunder exploded out. Wild winds blew across the land, creating an awful atmosphere.
A long black line appeared in the endless horizon and murderous intent filled the air. It overwhelmed the storm and even the lightning in the sky.
The same Giant Tempest Wolf mounts.
The same excellent iron armour!
The same long sword and spear. The same iron willed soldier!
This was a terrifying iron willed army, it was not inferior to the most elite Central State army!
The wolf flag fluttered and their spears glowed cold. These were the strongest mercenaries in the Central State!
A giant green wolf seemingly carved from jade was standing at the front. On top, there sat a man with eyes like lightning and a cold face. There was a giant scar on his face passing through his left eye that made him look even more sinister. His eyes were as cold and sharp as a knife and his body was covered in a suffocating aura.
"Sir family head!"
"South Sky City is in front of us!"
"Please give the order! We will immediately attack the city!"
Two mercenaries with strong auras stood at his sides.
"Tianlang is still in their hands and you want to attack the city? Are you seeking death?!"
The two mercenaries quickly and nervously said, "Subordinate doesn't dare!"
This knife scarred middle aged man naturally was not just anyone. He was the Ye Family's head, the leader of the Ye Family's mercenary group —Ye Wudao!
This man looked to be around forty-fifty years old, but he was actually close to sixty years old.
He had taken over the family head position at the age of thirty and had led the Ye Family's mercenary group for twenty years. He had single handedly turned the Ye Family into one of the Four Great Families!
Ye Wudao was very overbearing when he was younger. He was extremely cruel and heartless, for a single grudge, he would slaughter a person's entire family, even little babies weren't spared. Any person that had a grudge with him, would never have a good ending.
After over ten years.
Ye Wudao had become famous and his influence increased everyday. Adding on his cruel reputation from his youth, no one dared to annoy him in Central State City. Now Ye Wudao rarely appeared in the public's eyes, but his cruel wolf like personality had been passed on to the entire family.
From the high class elders to the lowly stewards, then entire Ye Family was arrogant beyond compare. Their personalities were cruel and overbearing.
The Ye Family even supported internal fights.
Letting the wolf nature run through their bones.
Without being ruthless and deceitful, one couldn't survive in the Ye Family!
Due to this, the Ye Family's battle strength had become highly formidable. The Ye Family had become very aggressive. For their goal, they would resort to anything!
In these ten or so years, the family had inflated their wealth and influence by several times and had attracted countless followers!
The wolf was their totem.
The entire clan was like a pack of wolves!
The Ye Family was the most like the wolf in the Central State, they were the most aggressive family!
In all these years, there was no one that dared to have the last word with the Ye Family. No one would have thought that from a small place like South Sky City, someone like Chu Tian would appear!
What they also couldn't imagine!
The son Ye Wudao had been proud of, would actually be captured by this little peasant!
The minute Ye Wudao found out that Ye Tianlang had been captured, he had slain over ten of his personal bodyguards in rage. Then he led the most elite troops of the Ye Family and marched off to South Sky City!
The South Sky City gates were firmly closed!
On the high city walls, there were over a thousand archers. Their arrows were like a dense jungle, glowing cold and sinister. They were ready to blot out the sky at any minute.
A person in a whole body of white armour was currently standing in the central tower. He grasped a thick iron spear and faced the Ye Family mercenaries as he loudly shouted, "I am South Sky City's General Xiong Bing! Ye Wudao, you have brought personal soldiers and threatened the one million people of South Sky City. You have clearly broken the kingdom's laws. What crime do you deserve!"
Ye Wudao's eyes swept across the city walls, falling onto a young man that was tied up. Wasn't this his son Ye Tianlang?
Ye Tianlang had run rampant for a moment!
Now he was being humiliated in front of the over ten thousand mercenaries and was tied to a pole!
This was simply ruthlessly slapping Ye Wudao's face, ruthlessly slapping the Ye Family mercenaries' faces!
It didn't matter if it was a normal Ye Family member. But Ye Tianlang was Ye Wudao's son and the successor to the Ye Family!
Ye Wudao disregarded Xiong Bing and raised his hand high up, "Form the attack formation!"
The wolf cavalry spread out evenly and formed several crescent shaped charge formations. At the same time, they lifted their weapons high up and as if the wolves could feel their masters' killing intent, they raised their heads and howled into the sky. These wolves were all demon beasts, even if one or two weren't that scary, with over a thousand of them howling together, it was enough to shake the city walls.
The South Sky City soldiers were unable to stop their shaking hands. Some of them were even weak willed and began to urinate their pants.
"Prepare to charge!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"Daring to shame our Ye Family! Die!"
Over ten thousand wolves howling!
Over ten thousand cavalrymen!
The killing intent filled the air!
Xiong Bing's face turned very ugly, "Mayor, the situation is really bad. That maniac Ye Wudao might really attack the city! Has Chu Tian come out yet?"
"He closed up the day before yesterday and still hasn't come out!" Nangong Yi stood beside Xiong Bing, he also had a very depressed look, "This kid causes trouble and then lets us wipe his ass. He is truly going too far!"
Nangong Hai was joyfully watching from the side.
This time they've angered Ye Wudao, he wanted to see how it would end for them!
Ye Wudao's disposition was very cruel, if he was angered, it was very likely he would attack the city. Could South Sky City's army block the Ye Family elites? At that time not to mention Chu Tian, even the entire South Sky City might be slaughtered!
This matter, Nangong Yi could not avoid taking responsibility for. He had to see it through to the end!
Ye Wudao rode his mount forward and coldly stared at the city gate. Nangong Yi, release Tianlang right now. I only want the life of Chu Tian!"
Nangong Yi revealed an awkward expression.
Ye Wudao's strength was at the 5th Awakened Soul Layer. It was hard for Nangong Yi to fight him with his 4th Awakened Soul Layer strength.
Moreover, Ye Wudao had brought many experts with him. Within the wolf cavalry teams, there were many Awakened Soul experts. There were probably around forty-fifty of them which was much more than all the Awakened Soul experts in South Sky City combined!
Nangong Yi could only try making concessions, "I'll let go of Ye Tianlang and you let off Chu Tian!"
"You should understand your own situation! You don't have the qualifications to negotiate with me!" Ye Wudao's voice was as sharp as a knife. He raised his right arm high up and loudly ordered, "Wolf Fang Mercenaries! Prepare to charge!"
The mercenaries began to release their spirit energy.
The aura surrounding them increased by several times!
Nangong Yi's face fell. This fellow was simply too overbearing. With a single word, he was prepared to attack the city.
"People of South Sky City, the Wolf Fang Mercenaries will attack the city after ten seconds!" He used his spirit energy and spread his voice across the city. "I'll give you ten seconds to reconsider, every second after that, we'll kill a hundred thousand people once we break into the city!"
"Ten!"
"Nine!"
"Eight!"
"......"
Just like a terrifying count down to their deaths, it sounded out in the people's minds.
Ye Wudao's voice spread through all of South Sky City!
At this minute, everyone was petrified with fear!
He would kill a hundred thousand people for every extra second? Then wouldn't he only need ten seconds to kill all one million people?
In this world, the weak were like grass. But this time he was slaughtering an entire city, by killing this many people, wasn't he afraid of causing the public's outrage?
Everyone had underestimated the Ye Family's cruelty and they underestimated how terrifying the Ye Family was!
Nangong Yi's expression became very ugly, "Ye Wudao, you really want to massacre a city? You really are a maniac!"
Ye Wudao coldly smiled but did not speak, he just continued counting, "Six! Five! ....."
The soldiers on the city wall quickly threw down their weapons.
"We surrender!"
"Please don't kill me!"
Once Xiong Bing saw this, his heart filled with helplessness and he clenched his teeth, "Mayor, there's not other way. We can't do anything, we should at least let him go!"
Dammit!
Chu Tian still hadn't come out yet?
Nangong Yi tightly clenched his fist and said through clenched teeth, "We can't! With Ye Tianlang in our hands, he still might have some hesitation. If we let him go, with Ye Wudao's personality, South Sky City has no way of escaping!"
Ye Wudao seemed to become more and more ominous. It was just like a demon beast's roar, "Four! Three! Two! One!"
The countdown was over!
"Perhaps it's been too long since I've appeared, people have actually forgotten how I do things!" Ye Wudao revealed a cruel look. He pulled out a long sabre from his waist and raised it into the sky as he loudly shouted, "Then we'll let you have a taste of what we have! The might of the Wolf Fang Mercenaries! Break into the city!"
"Kill!"
The wolf cavalry suddenly rush out!
It was like a wave of beans forming a giant green wave as the wolf cavalry charged forward together.
Ye Wudao had a fierce face, "I want to let everyone know the price of offending the Ye Family! They must pay the price in blood!"
"Not good!"
Xiong Bing and Nangong Yi's faces fell!
Right as the wolf cavalry was about to hit the wall!
Suddenly a strong aura shot out, coming out from within South Sky City. It was an ancient and mysterious power.
Like an ancient demonic god that had been sleeping for ten billion years, had suddenly awoken. In that instant, the world changed colours, the gods ran away, and every living thing began to shake!
"Wu, wu, wu!"
The originally vicious wolves suddenly felt something and stopped in place. Without warning, they began to tremble and their mouths began to let out frightened cries.
"What is going on!"
"Kill! Quickly kill them!"
Ye Wudao angrily shouted at the wolves, but even his own mount was the same. Against this kind of mysterious and unknown ancient god's consciousness, these demon beast did not even have the slightest thought of resisting.
The mounts of the Wolf Fang Mercenaries had all been thoroughly trained!
Even if they met a higher level demon beast, they still wouldn't be frightened to the point where they couldn't move!
What was happening?
"Hong, hong!"
In the sky, countless streaks of red lightning flashed and black clouds gathered above South Sky City. It seemed like it was the end of the world.
A large figure was suddenly projected into the endless void!
The moment everyone saw that figure, there brains turned blank, as if they had just been petrified.
What kind of existence was this?
It was an impressive ancient demonic god with nine eyes!
The minute while everyone was in a daze, the nine eyes opened and its eyes swept across the wolf cavalry soldiers outside the city. Then the giant figure disappeared.
"Ao, ao, ao!"
The ten thousand battle wolves all began to wildly howl as they jumped around randomly and began to flee in all directions. The riders could not control the wolves and were all thrown onto the ground as everything turned to chaos.
In just a few minutes, the entire wolf cavalry had been thrown into chaos and all the wolves had fled.
Ye Wudao couldn't help being angry from the shame, "What did you do!"
Nangong Yi and Xiong Bing looked at each other blankly, they had no way of explaining what had just happened. That fierce demonic god's figure had only appeared for two-three seconds and it had completely collapsed the wolf cavalry.
"Ha, ha, ha!"
"It seems like I've come right on time!"
A laugh came from behind them and the two of them turned around to look. Chu Tian brought the Meng Qingwu sisters and was slowly walking over. Zhang Liqing and Xiong Tianyan were behind them.
Nangong Yi didn't know why, but seeing Chu Tian appear made him relax, "You little brat, you've finally come! You.....You guys have already broken through!"
Chu Tian's temperament had greatly changed, he had become even more mysterious and profound. There was no doubt that he had broken through!
Now Chu Tian had already surpassed the Body Refinement Realm and was now a dignified Awakened Soul Cultivator. It was not only Chu Tian, but Meng Yingying and Meng Qingwu had both broken through to the Awakened Soul Realm!
This was too shocking!
Also!
What was that phenomenon that happened in the sky?
Was it caused by Chu Tian breaking through?!
