Chapter 1257: Storm the Enemy City

~7 min read 1,213 words

"Brother Ye, you all take care! I'm also gathering my troops, ready to support you at any moment!" Zuo Mu also went to gather his troops.

"No need, we won't go either; they can just go fight on their own!" Ye Liuyun said calmly.

"What?" Zuo Mu was even more surprised.

He glanced at Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng, really having no intention to move!

"You…… aren't you sending the soldiers to their deaths? If you don't want this troop, give it to me!"

Zuo Mu really couldn't understand their strange behavior.

They didn't even have a commander!

Although the troop also had a leader, his combat experience definitely wasn't as rich as Ye Liuyun's and Qin Peng's!

Ye Liuyun, however, laughed easily: "We have to let them gain some experience; we can't always rely on us!"

Ye Liuyun wasn't just saying it; he truly felt at ease with this troop.

Even if something unexpected happened, they could withdraw safely.

After all, the enemy only had a hundred thousand troops; in numbers, they didn't have an absolute advantage.

"Let's go, let's go up to the city wall to watch their battle!" Ye Liuyun suggested.

Zuo Mu was both curious and worried at that moment, so he immediately brought Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng up onto the city wall.

Only then did he notice that the demon cultivator troop was openly running toward the foreign tribe's city. Meanwhile, another troop, carrying ferocious beasts, split into ten squads and moved to encircle the enemy city from all sides.

"They're really going to their deaths!" Zuo Mu thought the troop would launch a sneak attack, but instead they were going for a frontal assault, and it seemed they also intended to surround the enemy, leaving none alive.

With such forces scattered, could they possibly capture a city defended by a hundred thousand troops?

Zuo Mu felt in his heart that Ye Liuyun was just causing trouble.

"This time it's mainly to let them practice coordination and formation, so we can't do a sneak attack. A sneak attack would be too easy for them."

"……"

Zuo Mu was momentarily speechless.

After a while, he finally spoke: "I think you have too many troops and don't know how to expend them, right?"

Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng both smiled, without further explanation.

"Just look at the result!" Ye Liuyun told Zuo Mu.

"Fine, I'll watch!" Zuo Mu caught up, saying that, but in his heart he had already concluded these soldiers would end in a disastrous defeat.

Seeing these soldiers, the opposing foreign tribe also thought they were coming to die.

"Where did the demon race find some demon cultivators to come die?" The local foreign tribe leader didn't pay much attention, merely ordering the soldiers to do their duty defending the city.

After the previous actual combat, Ye Liuyun's demon cultivator troop had dwindled to less than thirty thousand.

With so few people attacking a city, he thought it wasn't even enough to stuff between the teeth, so he wasn't worried at all.

However, this demon cultivator troop directly formed up and slowly approached the city wall.

Some demon cultivators at the front took out a treasure, placed it in the very front, and pushed forward slowly.

Upon seeing that treasure, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but laugh in disbelief.

That treasure was the door panel he and Zhu Youfu obtained in the Secret Realm, which these demon cultivators had enlarged and used as a shield. Only now did he realize it had been handed over to the demon cultivator troop for defense.

"A door panel?" Zuo Mu also exclaimed in surprise.

He thought Ye Liuyun's troop looked well-equipped and should have some good gear, but he never expected they'd produce only a large door panel to block the attack.

"Using this to block the attack is actually not bad!" Ye Liuyun laughed and praised.

The foreign tribe and demon cultivators on the opposing city wall saw it and also burst out laughing.

"These people really are coming to die!"

However, when the attacking troop drew near, they could no longer laugh.

Besides that large door panel, the front-line soldiers all raised their shields, defending like an iron tube, and quickly closed in on the city wall.

"Attack!"

The foreign tribe's leader issued the attack order.

But all of their attacks were deflected; their bows and other equipment couldn't pierce their defense at all.

The city-defending leader then began to panic, immediately sending someone to notify the city's chief leader.

With this delay, before their chief leader even received the news, Ye Liuyun's demon cultivator great army had already drawn close to the city wall.

Zuo Mu also became interested. "This door panel really works!" He finally noticed what was different about this door panel.

Suddenly, the demon cultivators beneath the city all released demon qi, enveloping the entire attacking troop.

After the demon qi of tens of thousands gathered together, it began to spread upward over the city wall.

"Suppress it downward."

At the city-defending foreign tribe's command, the demon cultivators and corpse demons on the wall launched an attack, countless true essence bombarding downward.

Before their attack could even touch the demon qi, the large door panel below rose from the demon qi, blocking their attacks and sending them back.

The demon cultivators below used demon qi to lift the entire door panel upward, using it to block the attack.

Just when everyone thought the door panel would fall again, it instead rose further, lifting even higher toward the city wall and shooting straight up.

Only then did others notice that nearly a hundred demon cultivators were beneath the door panel, dragging it upward while using it to block the attack.

Their figures were all concealed by the demon qi until they surged upward, when they became visible.

The defenders on the city wall were suddenly shoved back a distance by the door panel.

And at that very moment, some demon cultivators holding shields also rushed forward.

The door panel blocked the frontal attack, while the sides were defended by shields.

As more demon cultivators surged through that gap onto the wall, shield-bearing demon cultivators kept rushing up as well; the area occupied by the attacking troop kept expanding.

"Tianzun Realm attack!"

The Leader defending the city also immediately ordered the strong ones of the Tianzun Realm to join in.

These strong ones immediately joined forces to attack the gate.

But actually, the gate's Formation defense is the strongest.

Moreover, from a distance before, the opponent's attacks were all reflected elsewhere; now that they are close, when they attack, the True Essence they emit is all reflected back, causing them to become flustered.

Ye Liuyun's Demon Cultivator troop scaled the wall very quickly.

Soon they had already climbed halfway up!

Zuo Mu was astonished and kept praising; Ye Liuyun and Qin Peng also showed a smile.

At this point, they could all be sure that this troop should have no problem breaking into the city.

The opposing city-defense commander also panicked. Immediately they sent someone to inform the Supreme Leader, the city walls have been breached!

The entire city's Foreign Tribe had no one expecting that they would be rushed by the siege troop so quickly.
