Chapter 1407 - 900 Strong! The City Stands! (Part 2)

The soldiers farther away were all the more shaken to their core!

Is Mr. Du Yu finally about to advance?

Two months after the Twin Realm was invaded on a grand scale by the Youhan Realm, is the world finally about to迎来 a glimmer of dawn?

Du Yu, who spent his days in bitter cultivation, had no idea how brutal the situation on the front line had become.

Message after message was forbidden from reaching Du Yu, lest it disturb his mind and interfere with his focused cultivation.

Under the protection of the Twin Divine Trees, no one was even able to get close enough to speak with Du Yu.

Only half a month ago, Ms. Yang Qingqing and Ms. Li Mengnan had come here, and they alone were qualified to approach Du Yu.

Yet these two Guardian Gods of the Twin Tree Realm tacitly never mentioned the state of the battlefield; they merely stayed with him for a full day and night.

At last!

Paper Crane Disciple·Du Yu was about to come forth from seclusion!

The true Legendary Demon Tamer of Great Xia was about to join the battlefield!

"All of you, come back." Du Yu plopped down on the ground.

Qi Tian and Tai Sui swiftly ran toward their master, transforming into Demon Breath one after another and surging into Du Yu’s body.

At the same time, in Gossoxone Realm·Xiangcha City.

Though it was called a "city", Xiangcha City had long since become a stretch of primeval tropical rainforest.

Only the tall city walls erected on all sides still bore a trace of human civilization.

Above the West City Gate, upon the high wall, Yang Qingqing stood loftily in midair, gazing westward at the blaze-red sky.

The churning gray mist could not invade this place.

Her disciple’s Fire Age Axe was exerting an effect far more terrifying than any other Holy Soldier.

Holy Weapon Array·Heaven-Burning Array!

Four characters: As long as the axe stands, the city stands!

No one knew that the Fire Age Axe was not guarding the city, nor guarding the Twin Tree Realm.

It was merely following its master’s command, guarding just a few people.

Every time she looked at the drifting wisps of fire fog falling from the sky, Yang Qingqing would feel as though her disciple were standing right behind her.

And under Du Yu’s protection, Yang Qingqing in turn was holding fast to this entire city, even an entire battle line!

In the short span of the past two months,

Yang Qingqing had gone from Director Yang of Great Xia Bookstore·Twenty-Ninth Bureau to becoming the National Guardian General of all Great Xia.

This title came from the brilliant military exploits she had earned.

And it was universally acknowledged in the hearts of countless Human Race and Beast Race soldiers on the battlefield.

During the phase when the entire front in the Twin Tree Realm was shrinking and falling back, only the Central Front·Xiangcha City stood unshaken.

With Xiangcha City as the center, the surrounding Battle Zones received immense support and aid, and thus held firm as well!

Do not for a moment think this is some minor achievement; both the Northern Front and the Southern Front were retreating step by step.

On one hand, the Cold Race army was pressing in, launching fierce assaults, flanking maneuvers, ambushes, assassinations—resorting to every possible tactic.

On the other hand, there was the encroaching cold mist.

When the cold mist covered a given region, the Human-Beast Alliance Army had no choice but to retreat.

Even in the Northern Front·within the Asa Empire, the major cities had changed hands several times, back and forth.

One must know that on the Asa Empire’s side, Three Holy Han and Supreme Mud Po were both present!

They were the ones Yang Qingqing had deliberately left over there to assist.

The mighty strength of Supreme Mud Po went without saying.

Even so, the Northern Front was no longer what it had once been; the Asa Empire’s Capital City that Du Yu had reclaimed in days past had already become a Paradise for the Cold Race.

"Ms. Yang!" A soldier flew up high, arriving beside Yang Qingqing’s feet.

The soldier’s face was covered in bright red blood, yet his complexion was deathly pale.

"Mm." Yang Qingqing lowered her lids, no longer looking at the rolling fire clouds in the sky.

Her gaze fell to the ground, where she saw the battlefield awash in rivers of blood.

Blades and swords whirled wildly, Holy Beasts rampaged.

Under the protection of one Holy Soldier after another and one Holy Beast after another, the Human-Beast Alliance Army stepped over the corpses of comrades and enemies alike, straining to stabilize their formation.

Perhaps from seeing it so often, her heart had gone numb.

Yang Qingqing’s face, incredibly, was utterly expressionless.

In this moment, she looked very much like a cold, indifferent Demon Taming Saint.

The soldier’s expression was urgent: "Ms. Yang, the sentry posts we set up underground have all lost contact."

"Hm?"

Soldier: "Unlike every previous time, this time not a single comrade made it back alive to report!"

Yang Qingqing’s expression finally changed.

The battlefield between the Twin Tree Realm and the Youhan Tree Realm was not as simple as what showed on the surface.

The sky and the ground were both domains the Human-Beast Alliance Army needed to seize, and so was the deep underground!

The Human-Beast Alliance Army had established numerous sentry posts underground, of varying strength; if not one person survived...

Was the invader the Supreme·Mud Po Goddess Sculpture?

Even if a Demon Saint attacked, the Human Race and Beast Race soldiers concealed deep underground ought still to have a chance to transmit information via Contract.

So... it must be Supreme Mud Po.

Only absolute power could so easily, so swiftly break through the defenses.

Was the Youhan Army finally making a move against this Xiangcha City that refused to fall?

The soldier spoke on without pause: "The underground enemy forces are advancing at an astonishing Speed, rapidly closing in on Xiangcha City!

We have already requested Saint Langao to come assist, but the situation over in East Persia is equally dire!"

"Mengnan." Yang Qingqing swept her palm, summoning a painting.

"Master Qing?" Li Mengnan’s figure gathered on the wind, her usually sweet face suffused with dense killing intent.

"You are to go to Asa at once, and temporarily bring Three Holy Han and Mud Po back..."

"Rumble!!"

"Crack! Crack..." The sound of the earth shaking and the sound of giant rainforest trees toppling and snapping rang out together.

Li Mengnan whipped her head around, looking toward Xiangcha City behind her.

Vaguely, she seemed to see a gigantic Mud Hand wreaking havoc through the forest.

The cries of the Human Race and the shrieks of Demon Beasts spread through the rainforest.
