Paradise of Demonic Gods

Above Lihe City’s city walls, Ning Baichuan, Wang Daoyuan, and the Clearwater Hall’s Hall Master were all keeping a close watch on the battle situation. All sorts of contemplating expressions kept on flashing non-stop in their eyes.

Ning Baichuan thought to himself, ‘Although the imperial court is showing signs of resurgence, they’ve been in a weakened state for a very long time, and the young Emperor has a great liking for achieving extraordinary things. He thought that he’d be able to take back the world just by sending Marie to conquer the south, but he has taken too great a stride.

‘The imperial court is doomed to fail in this battle. The right thing to do is to still join an influence that has Tiangang Realm experts.’

This battle had provoked Ning Baichuan too much. He had an army of several ten thousand soldiers under him and thought that he was also considered one of the feudal vassals in the world. However, it was only after the 13 Tiangang Realm experts appeared in succession that he realized how weak he was.

Before such people who could fight against several hundred thousand Xiantian Realm cultivators, any schemes or plots were useless.

Just as Ning Baichuan was thinking about the current situation, a stream of Gang Qi descended onto the battlefield from beyond the heavens. Another Tiangang Realm expert’s aura rose up.

At the next moment, one of the 12 streams of Tiangang Qis—that had appeared concurrently earlier on—disappeared.

“What happened?” Ning Baichuan’s expression was that of surprise. Each Tian Yi expert was a legend in the pugilistic world, and no matter how many people surrounded and attacked them, it was impossible for them to die so quickly in battle.

However, at the next moment, something that made him even more astonished occurred. The remaining 11 Tiangang Realm experts’ auras had started to flee. Even Nong Buyi, who had been fighting with Eunuch Wang earlier on, also felt that the situation seemed bad and immediately started retreating.

The three people on the city wall were shocked and bewildered. They then saw a great tempest suddenly brew in the sky above the battlefield. It was because the shock waves formed in the air from Zhao Yinglan’s high-speed movements had crashed, scattering the allied forces’ military formation and causing countless Xiantian Realm experts to keep on getting pushed back.

The even more horrifying thing was that as the tempest blew, there seemed to be an additional invisible soul on the battlefield. As the series of strong gales blew, black shadows flashed, and the auras from the Tiangang Realm experts kept on reducing.

Ten… nine… seven… four… three…

In the blink of an eye, many Tiangang Realm experts were killed like pigs and chickens getting slaughtered. Till now, the people present had not been able to see what the appearance of the attacker looked like. They could only vaguely sense the Tiangang Realm experts’ auras reduce continuously, and a small number of people were able to see the corpse fragments plunging down from midair.

Clearwater Hall’s Hall Master looked at the battlefield in disbelief, “What happened? What on earth happened?”

He, Ning Baichuan, and Wang Daoyuan were unable to understand or comprehend the situation.

At the next moment, a figure darted before them at lightning speed. That person wore yellow robes and had his hair tied up in a bun. He was the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch, a legend in the pugilistic world and a Tiangang Realm expert.

Even the Clearwater Hall’s Hall Master was taken by surprise when he saw the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch. Right now, the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch no longer had his usual celestial flair and calm disposition. Instead, he appeared crestfallen and horrified like he was being chased by something terrifying.

Just as the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch passed over the head of Ning Baichuan and the other two, a brilliant sword glow descended from the sky. The plasma light sword sliced through the Gang Qis around the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch effortlessly. The Gang Qis—which could fend off the projectile shells freely—were as brittle as tofu. After the Gang Qis were slashed open, sword light flashed past on this body.

It was not until the sword light slashed through the Patriarch’s body that a series of strong gales followed after. Then thunder-like explosions rang out next to the ears of Ning Baichuan and the other two, causing them to be unsteady on their feet. The city wall they were standing on also kept on tremoring non-stop under the impact of the strong gales and were showing signs of cracking.

Under the trio’s shocked gaze, the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch who had been slashed by a sword attack was blasted into minced meat under the strong gales and scattered over the city walls, falling down toward the entire city.

The Yellow Sect’s Patriarch, who was well-known across the world and admired by many, had died like a dog before them.

When the strong gales came to a stop, the three of them saw a strange person who was covered completely by blood-red armor and holding a light sword appear before them.

The three of them did not dare to act recklessly while facing this person who managed to kill the Yellow Sect’s Patriarch with a single sword attack. They did not even dare to blink, acting like sheep that were waiting to be slaughtered. The atmosphere was extremely tense.

A stream of sword light flashed past with a swoosh , and the plasma light sword suddenly extended five meters in length, sweeping through the head of the Clearwater Hall’s Hall Master. With a sword attack that was quick as lightning, both Ning Baichuan and Wang Daoyuan were only able to react when the Hall Master had fallen to the ground.

Looking as the Clearwater Hall’s Hall Master fell into the pool of blood, the two of them felt even more fearful of showing any signs of resistance. Cold sweat drenched their backs instantly, and killing intents brushed against their head like blades.

At this moment, both Ning Baichuan and Wang Daoyuan felt as if they were rats that had been caught by a cat, possibly losing their lives at any moment. This feeling that their lives were not in their control caused them to feel horror from deep within their hearts, which were almost going to stop beating.

A short moment later, amidst a series of strong gales and air explosions, the person in red armor disappeared. It was only then that Ning Baichuan and Wang Daoyuan let out a long exhale. Both of them were drenched in perspiration, and their bones felt sore and weak. It was as if they had experienced a great war.

The two of them exchanged a glance and could only see pure horror in each other’s eyes.

Ning Baichuan suddenly reacted and bellowed loudly, “Where’s General Meng? Quick… Quickly get him to retreat… No, get him to surrender. Open the city gates. Everyone follow me to submit to the imperial court.”

The Li Clan’s clan head was frantically escaping, the surface of his skin was emitting a golden color. Even though he was crippled of an arm, his speed was not any slower than before. He broke through layers of air currents like a tank that was charging at several times the speed of sound. Wherever he passed by, people and horses would be thrown off their feet, and blood and flesh would splatter about.

‘B*stard… How is it possible for Zhao Yinglan to possess such strong powers?’ A strong feeling of horror and… greed flashed past in his eyes.

‘I must find a way to get my hands on this set of armor. A long as I have this set of armor…’

At the next moment, an intense pain came from his chest. A big hole was pierced through his Indestructible Golden Physique that was said to be adamantine. He crashed into the allied forces at the side like a large truck that had lost control, coming to a stop only after knocking over and killing over 100 people. He then lost all signs of life.

As the many Tiangang Realm experts were easily killed one after another and more and more soldiers were toppling from the shock waves and electromagnetic rifles, the generals from each force started to retreat with their soldiers. Thereafter, the entire allied forces finally started to crumble.

Seeing the army commanders charging right in, an excited smile finally appeared on Eunuch Wang’s face.
