"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"
Lu Li was not the only one. Many warriors in the city flew up as well. Many of them were in a state of panic.
The Teleportation Formation was destroyed. The powerful warriors that were teleported out could not come back. There were two Human Sovereign Realm warriors hiding in the army outside. How long could the shield last?
The Drifting Cloud City, the Stormy Cloud City and the Flaming Cloud City formed a triangle and they were not far away from each other.
That being said, this distance was relative to the vastness of the Clouds Plains. There was still some distance between the three cities. It would take a Human Sovereign Realm warrior an hour to fly back at full speed.
There were no Human Sovereign Realm warriors in the city but there were two outside. By the time the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors from the Drifting Cloud Hall got back, the Drifting Cloud City would have become a dead city.
Once the millions of warriors broke into the city, the tens of millions of civilians in the city would be at the mercy of the Drifting Cloud Hall.
"Bang, bang, bang ~"
From the plaza came some noises of explosion. The traitor that attacked the Teleportation Formation was killed immediately. Even so, the city was in chaos. Fear spread through the hearts of the civilians.
They all looked at the densely packed martial artists outside the great array outside the city, and at the two martial artists with the vigorous Qi and blood, their eyes filled with fear and despair.
Lu Li dashed toward the main hall of the Drifting Cloud Hall like a sharp sword. Some warriors noticed him.
But he had the token of scouts in his hand so nobody stopped him. Nobody cared about a puny Eternal Realm warrior like him.
Lu Li didn't choose to fly in the sky, which was a wise decision. Otherwise, he would have been stopped.
He used psychic power to check the Drifting Cloud Hall. When he was halfway there, he could finally see the Drifting Cloud Hall. He saw Lu Ling standing at the back of the hall.
Lu Ling was standing outside the back of the hall with dozens of powerful warriors behind her. All of them were at the Noble Lord Realm.
Strangely enough, they didn't seem to be frightened. They were all looking at the sky calmly.
"Boom, boom, boom ~"
The two Human Sovereign Realm warriors and millions of warriors attacked at the same time. All kinds of sword rays and saber rays landed on the light blue shield, creating an earth-shaking noise.
The shield was shaking violently and its color was fading. Clearly, its energy was being consumed.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Many warriors flew out from their yards and gathered at the plaza. Many Noble Lord Realm warriors shouted and mobilized warriors in the city to gather.
Looking into the distance, Lu Li could tell that there were more than a million warriors gathered at the plaza. Including those standing on the city walls, there must be more than two million.
Countless Martial Artists gathered in the center of the square from all directions.
Lu Li heard the shouts of the Noble Lord Realm warriors. If it were Meng Ji, he would have gathered at the plaza.
But Lu Li would not follow orders. He just wanted to go to Lu Ling and try his best to protect her.
Finally, he arrived at the Drifting Cloud Hall. However, he was stopped by the guards.
Many psychic powers were locked onto him. If Lu Li dared to force his way in, he would be killed right away.
"I want to see the Saintess. I have important military information to report!"
Lu Li waved the token in his hand. The escorts outside the main hall pretended not to see it. A team leader shouted angrily, "Get lost. Go to the plaza!"
"Xiu!"
All of a sudden, a man showed up behind Lu Li. He was covered in a black armor. Holding a token in his hand, he said, "Saintess said to let him in."
"Yes!"
A warrior covered in a black armor must have a high status. The escorts didn't dare to stop him.
Without any hesitation, Lu Li rushed in like a sharp sword and went straight to the backyard.
He saw Lu Ling from the distance. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something. But Lu Ling raised her hand to stop him from saying anything.
"Stand on the side!"
Lu Ling said casually and then ignored Lu Li. She gazed into the sky calmly as if she was waiting for the shield to be broken.
"Saintess!"
There were many people standing around Lu Ling and there were many hidden guards nearby. Lu Li didn't dare to call her sister in public.
He made up his mind and said, "This is a critical situation. When the shield is broken, I will take you away."
Many patriarchs of the Noble Lord Realm looked at Lu Li as if he was an idiot. Lu Li, a warrior at the initial stage of the Eternal Realm, wanted to take Lu Ling, who was at the middle stage of the Noble Lord Realm, away?
Was he not an idiot?
What was more, many of them were at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. Why would they need Lu Li, an Eternal Realm warrior, to protect Lu Ling?
Lu Ling didn't even look at Lu Li. She just said coldly, "Stand there and don't talk. This is an order!"
Lu Li looked at Lu Ling but he didn't dare to do anything. There were too many powerful warriors nearby.
There were at least 30 of the Noble Lord Realm and 10 of them were at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. There were also many hidden guards. If he took Lu Ling away by force, a fight might break out.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The warriors kept on attacking the shield. The shield had become translucent and it could be broken at any time.
Almost all the warriors in the city had gathered. There were more than three million warriors in the city, almost equal to the number outside.
The Drifting Cloud City was the headquarter of the Drifting Cloud Hall. Naturally, it was heavily guarded.
Unfortunately, the only Human Sovereign Realm warrior here was lured away. More than half of the Noble Lord Realm warriors had left. Even if the number of warriors was about the same, it wouldn't help.
There was a difference of one realm between warriors but their strengths were worlds apart.
A Human Sovereign Realm warrior with 10,000 warriors could defeat an army of one million.
Nobody could stop a Human Sovereign Realm warrior. What was more, a Human Sovereign Realm warrior could target the enemy's commander. Once the commander and senior leaders were killed, morale would drop and the army would collapse.
Lu Li didn't know much about commanding armies. That being said, he was the emperor of the Northern Desert after all. He had seen it before.
What he didn't understand was —
The situation was so clear. How come Lu Ling and the Noble Lord Realm warriors were so calm?
Even if some of them were pretending, how come dozens of them could do it so well that Lu Li couldn't see through them?
"It's about time, Patriarch He!"
After the time for 10 breaths, Lu Ling said. She waved her hand and a patriarch at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm flew to the plaza.
The patriarch shouted, "Spread out and prepare for battle!"
This Patriarch He must have a high prestige at the Drifting Cloud Hall. At his shout, the two million warriors on the plaza divided into four square formations and stood around the plaza, ready for battle.
"Boom!"
Not long after, the Great City Defense Formation in the sky burst apart like a bubble. The two Renhuangs on it suddenly had a murderous aura. Both of them waved their weapons and roared, "Kill!"
The two Human Sovereign Realm warriors led more than 100 Noble Lord Realm warriors and more than 10,000 Eternal Realm warriors toward the plaza in the center of the city.
Human Sovereign Realm warriors were the sharpest weapons and they must be used in the most appropriate places.
There were two million warriors around the plaza and they were ready for battle. It was the wisest decision for the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors and a group of powerful warriors to come to the plaza.
As long as they could defeat the two million warriors, all the civilians in the Drifting Cloud City would become livestock in a slaughterhouse, slaughtered at will.
"Charge —"
Deafening battle cries rang out from all directions of the Drifting Cloud City. Three million soldiers rushed towards the city from all directions like a tidal wave.
