In the chaotic capital, a well-organized army that was advancing at a high speed would attract attention.
No matter if it was an ally or an enemy.
The flying flag of Tensei Province calmed the panicked people and attracted the hot-blooded men to follow it. The bravest group of people in the empire chose to step forward at the critical moment. No one knew if this choice was right or wrong. Maybe they would use their courage and faith to create a victory song, or maybe Houtu would lose the most hot-blooded and sincere group of people because of this.
Because this flag also attracted the attention of the enemy.
In the last ten years of the Tianyuan War, the Tensei flag flying on the battlefield was an iron wall that made the Sky Demon sigh. It was a strong enemy that made the champions of the Saint Selection happy after winning. Today, when Houtu collapsed, the first person to raise the flag in the city was General Tensei. It was unexpected, but reasonable. None of the Sky Demon was surprised.
Defeat this human and end the old order of the Houtu Empire.
This was the beginning of the revival of the race.
The Sky Demon who had taken over Houtu Empire's body approached with cold flames in their eyes.
Then, they attacked.
The walls on both sides collapsed one after another. The hidden attackers suddenly leaped out. Their monarch weapons were like wheels, intercepting the middle of the group. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere. Amidst the rumbling waves of air, two streaks of sword gleam slithered closer like poisonous snakes, biting towards the Heavenly Strategies Empress who was completely unaware. The Heavenly Demons all knew who the real enemy was.
The general who was protecting Empress Tensei shouted, "Be careful, Your Highness!"
He gritted his teeth and thrust his spear forward. He was going to die together with Empress Tensei. He had to block the fatal attack for Empress Tensei and cause enough trouble for the assassins. After all, as far as he knew, Empress Tensei was busy with military affairs and strategizing. Her attainments in martial arts were not top-notch. After all, a person's energy and wisdom were limited. A monster like Commander Of War, Jia Ying, was really too rare.
Then, he felt his shoulders sink.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Her Highness maintained the speed of her warhorse as she steadily extended her right hand and pulled his body to the side. Then, with a flip of her left hand, she pulled out the short sword on her saddle. Three streaks of sword light that were hard to see with the naked eye crisscrossed and met the sinister surprise attack head-on. Blood splattered everywhere. Ordinary people were actually better than the Imperial Army. His two arms and the long sword in his hand soared into the sky.
Empress's eyes reflected the color of shock, anger, and pain. Then, all the emotions froze, because there were a total of three sword lights just now. The last one took down two heads. Then, the two heads were lifted into the air. Then, the ape-like arms stretched out and caught the heads in Empress's hands.
General Tensei raised the two heads and roared, "Kill all enemies!"
The general who had just escaped death stared blankly at the Empress.
Then, his soul trembled.
What a powerful and heroic figure! So His Highness had been concealing his strength and biding his time, he thought to himself, and accepted this setting without hesitation.
Then, he roared, "Kill all enemies!"
Yinluo thought very clearly. No matter what, now was not the time to show mercy.
The rumbling of guns and cannons roared loudly.
Seraph in the air was the first to unleash the cannons. With the help of the Organic Souls, she had the advantage in target capture and fire control calculation. She was the best cannon fire guide. The attack from the sky came crashing down. On the ground, the power armor troops led by Yinluo immediately concentrated and fired. The overwhelming firepower overwhelmed everything.
The Sky Demon who took the initiative to attack first ran into trouble.
They had already taken over the body of a human and had not yet adapted to the operation of the human body and internal force. They could not exert the full power of the Imperial Army. More importantly, they thought they only needed to deal with the warriors of Houtu, but they ran into the guns of Li Fire head-on. The original Sky Demon naturally had a mature combat strategy to deal with Li Fire's guns. But with a human body, without the Holy Shield and Light Armor, how could they resist?
How fragile was the body of flesh and blood?
"Stop shooting!
Continue to move! "
Courrier's kill confirmation came from the short-distance communication channel. Yinluo issued the order. Through the thick helmet, she glanced at Empress Tensei's always straight figure and sighed silently.
The girl's heart was immediately moved. She thought of Sun Lang who was ambushed from all sides in the Imperial City. She also thought of Zhao Yunlong and the others who were secretly infiltrating. One in the light and one in the dark, the risky plan must succeed.
"The target is the Earth Bright Sword Palace. That day in the palace, after the so-called Nation Suppressing Sword was destroyed, the armor left behind was sent back to the Star Suppressing Sword Palace …"
The four-man team also moved at high speed. "Princess Pingyang" gave the final explanation.
Zhao Yunlong frowned and said, "Since it is the emperor's backup plan, why is it so troublesome?"
"Princess Pingyang" patiently said, "I have already said that the emperor's countermeasure is designed for Sun Lang. With Sun Lang's combat strength, there is no difference whether the armor is placed in the Sword Palace or the Martial Arts Hall.
It is reasonable to put the armor back in the Sword Palace. The Devil will not notice anything strange. "
She heard the sound of explosions and screams coming from not far away. The chaotic battle had begun again. Hardening her heart, the princess continued, "But for us, things will be much more troublesome. Do you see those seven pillars of light?
The Star Suppressing Sword Palace is one of them. No matter what the reason is, the Sky Demon will defend this place with all its strength. We can only work together in the light and in the dark. One side will attack while the other side will infiltrate. This way, we have the greatest chance. "
"Because we cannot afford any failure."
Chao Po-tao was silent for a moment and then said coldly, "You even asked your sister to pretend to be you and attract most of the killing intent and attacks in the frontal attack."
The "Princess Pingyang" in this team was actually Empress Tensei herself.
The "Empress Tensei" leading the charge was actually Princess Pingyang.
The appearance of the two sisters was almost exactly the same. The only obvious difference was their temperament. And now, it seemed that Princess Ping Yang's acting was perfect. That dignified and resolute look was exactly the same as the usual Empress Concubine.
After all, she had been the Sword Saint of the Kingdom for two years. She was already used to being cold and dignified.
The Empress Concubine was silent.
"Just as you said, that position, that banner, and that person will suffer the most hostility and attacks. With my martial arts, if I lead the charge, I probably won't be able to reach the Sword Palace alive. But right now, I can't die, just like that banner can't fall. Do you understand?"
She said coldly, "How can you understand my painful choice to put my sister in danger? But this choice is necessary."
"In addition, Pingyang is also a descendant of the Li family. We are born noble and have never had to worry about food and clothing. We have been worshipped and supported by the people. We have enjoyed all kinds of luxuries and supreme glory. Now that our country is in trouble, we should pay with blood and sacrifice. She has the blood of the Li family in her body, so she should stand at the front."
Zhao Yunlong said lightly, "You always like to use all kinds of banners to do disgusting things with a clear conscience. You have always been like this."
Miss Zhao saw that the situation was not right and said helplessly, "So, we have to fight among ourselves first?"
"Don't worry."
Lu Shu-jen said, "They just have different ideologies and have personal grudges. These two are famous generals of the Kingdom. They know what to do."
Empress glanced at Zhao Yunlong and said slowly, "If you are done venting your dissatisfaction and anger, we will continue. If you are still not satisfied, I suggest you let it go. There will be plenty of time in the future."
Zhao Yunlong snorted, "After finding the Sword Seal, we still have to find a way to activate it. Pingyang's strength comes from the same source as Sun Lang. She may be able to replace Sun Lang in using the Sword Seal. Just in case, I want to confirm again. Do you really know how to activate the Sword Seal?"
Empress replied, "What good will it do me to lie or act brave?"
This was still a cover-up that avoided the important and dwelling on the trivial.
Zhao Yunlong knew Empress's personality very well, so he did not pursue the matter. Instead, he said to her, "If you mess it up, we will leave the capital immediately on the Blazing Angel. Sun Lang will go on a killing spree. The Kingdom will collapse, and the Li Family will be finished. Do you understand the consequences?"
Before Empress could answer, Zhao Yunlong, Lu Shu-jen, and Zhao Feihuang looked to the side at the same time. Three figures flashed and leaped over. Flames were flashing in their eyes, and there was the smell of blood on them.
It was the Sky Demon.
Zhao Feihuang hooked his finger and simulated with his spiritual power. Blue flames lit up in the eyes of the four people. Seeing this, the three Sky Demons stopped being alert. The leader spoke in the obscure language of the Sky Demon.
"Congratulations, my people. Being reborn is the beginning of the great journey again. We will complete our revenge in another way. My name is Singolas, the Tranquility of the Secret Message Star Ring. I am very happy to meet you. I smell the scent of war. I will go and destroy the last resistance of Houtu."
Miss Zhao and the others were stunned.
Zhao Yunlong stepped forward and replied in the fluent Sky Demon language, "Congratulations to you too, my people of the Secret Message Star Ring. I am Archerons, the loyal guard of the World Tree. Let us fight together again."
The Heavenly Demon revealed a joyful smile and walked over, as if he wanted to greet them warmly. Soon after, he seemed to have thought of something and asked in confusion, "My fellow clansman, why do you speak so fluently?
It is difficult for the human vocal organs to adapt. Communication becomes very difficult. "
With a bang, the spear drilled into the Sky Demon's eyes like a dragon and came out from the back of his head. Lu Shu-jen opened the Kedu Force Field. With a turn of her sword, she cut off the remaining two heads.
"Deal with the bodies."
Zhao Yunlong shook off the pieces of flesh on the tip of the spear. "I was careless. I forgot about that."
Miss Zhao dispersed the Sky Demon's unwilling soul and asked curiously, "You can speak the Sky Demon language?"
Chao Po-tao replied, "Sun Lang taught me. We often sneak to the Sky Demon camp to cause trouble. He speaks it very well. Not only is there no problem with daily communication, but he also uses some very obscure and obscure allusions to scold people. He is even more experienced than the senior Sky Demon. When he interrogates the captives, he often makes the captives fly into a rage."
"Let's not talk too much."
Empress stepped forward and checked the two heads and their Imperial Army. She said with a sad tone, "I recognize them … The Ministry of Revenue is probably already in chaos. We have to hurry."
