Chapter 45

Thick mist shrouded the area.

The light was dim.

Once night fell, this world became even more oppressive, dark and desperate, like the end of the world.

The West City direction seemed even more chaotic.

Sounds of fighting came from more than one place, clanging and accompanied by shouting.

Iron Sword Fortress was located in the deepest part of West City, near a hillside.

This Qingyang City was built against the mountain, and the terrain of West City was the most complex, with mountains and water intertwined and a vast area.

Hoo!

Fang Yi's body flashed, and he appeared in a shadow on the wall of Iron Sword Fortress.

The entire wall was densely covered with iron caltrops, and there were many iron wires wrapped around it.

But whether it was iron caltrops or iron wires, they were useless against Fang Yi.

His feet stood here as if he were weightless.

In the night, Iron Sword Fortress was pitch black, not even a single lantern was lit.

The entire fortress appeared dark and demonic.

But under Fang Yi's vision, this darkness naturally counted for nothing.

He could clearly see that in some hidden dark corners, figures were concealed, breathing finely, with strong strength and powerful Qi and Blood lurking in their bodies.

"This Iron Sword Fortress really has a problem..."

Fang Yi narrowed his eyes.

These hidden figures all had a rich, bloody smell emanating from them.

This was the scent accumulated from absorbing human blood for years.

His expression was cold, and the poisonous substances in his body began to circulate. Wisps of red light emanated through his pores, quickly merging into the air and spreading throughout the entire Iron Sword Fortress.

Thump! Thump! Thump...

As the poison spread, he soon saw some hidden figures suddenly collapse to the ground, struggling and twitching, smoke hissing from their bodies as they began to rot...

Just as Fang Yi continued to release poison, he suddenly frowned and retracted the poison in his body again.

His body flashed, disappearing in an instant, and appeared in another direction to observe.

He saw a large number of soldiers suddenly appear on the mountain road not far away, dense and numerous, all holding torches and charging toward this side.

"Quickly surround Iron Sword Fortress, don't let anyone escape!"

"Faster, faster!"

"City Guard Army?"

Fang Yi looked surprised.

The City Guard Army was actually mobilized tonight?

"Could it be that the City Guard Army also discovered the problem with Iron Sword Fortress and learned of the existence of the Blood-Sucking Sect?"

Fang Yi's heart flickered.

If the City Guard Army could take down this group of Blood-Sucking Sect people, it would save him from having to continue.

He decided to observe secretly for a while.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the gate of Iron Sword Fortress was smashed to pieces.

A large number of soldiers rushed in quickly.

As a result, as soon as they entered, many people's expressions changed, and they hurriedly held their breath.

"Not good, there seems to be poison in the air!"

"Quickly hold your breath!"

The poison Fang Yi had just permeated, although only a small amount, still appeared terrifying when merged into the air. Ordinary first-layer Qi and Blood experts could not withstand it at all.

As soon as they came up, many City Guard soldiers felt dizzy and terrified, quickly retreating.

"Everyone don't panic, the rest follow me and charge!"

Gongsun Jiangjun let out a loud shout, his silver armor flashing, and he punched forward directly. With a boom, he relied on his powerful fist wind to forcibly blow away the poison gas, and his body was the first to rush inside.

The remaining elite City Guard soldiers shouted one after another and followed the charge.

The disciples on the periphery of Iron Sword Fortress had basically been poisoned to death by Fang Yi earlier.

The disciples guarding the inner circle soon learned of the situation and rushed out from the depths of Iron Sword Fortress one after another.

"Who goes there?"

"What are you doing? Why are you breaking into my Iron Sword Fortress?"

These Blood-Sucking Sect experts shouted sharply, still wanting to muddle through.

"Iron Sword Fortress?"

Gongsun Jiangjun's expression was cold, "I'm afraid you should be called the Blood-Sucking Sect instead, right? Today, not one of you will leave alive!"

The expressions of the people in front changed, and then with a long whistle, they stopped arguing and charged directly at the group of City Guard soldiers.

"Courting death!"

Gongsun Jiangjun's expression was cold, and he shouted sinisterly, "Kill them all, leave no one behind!"

Boom!

Silver light bloomed around his body, and he was the first to rush over, fighting with a group of Blood-Sucking Sect experts.

The remaining City Guard soldiers also rushed out one after another, shouts of killing shaking the sky as they charged forward.

The entire Iron Sword Fortress was in chaos.

Countless figures emerged and fought with these City Guard soldiers.

Fang Yi hid in the darkness and soon noticed the leader of this City Guard Army operation.

This time, the leader was clearly no longer Gongsun Jiangjun, but a burly man he had never seen before. His physique was unusually tall, about 2.2 meters or so, wearing a thick black armor.

His face was cold, like a huge iron beast, walking slowly from behind the crowd, with an unspeakable oppressive aura permeating his body.

"Bone Changing Realm expert!"

Fang Yi whispered in his heart.

This was definitely a true Bone Changing Realm expert!

This kind of aura was something he had never sensed before.

This person must be a high-level military official.

"Chiyue Fawang, did you think that by hiding here, I wouldn't be able to find you?"

The burly man's voice was cold, like a great bell, loud and heavy, echoing in this area as he walked forward.

During this time, a Blood-Sucking Sect expert rushed directly toward the burly man, but the moment he got close, he was punched by the burly man. It was simply like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood; the Blood-Sucking Sect expert was blown apart on the spot, his entire body torn into pieces, flesh and blood flying, unspeakably cruel and brutal.

"Do you still want me to invite you out?"

The burly man's voice was terrifying, continuing to echo.

"Hahaha..."

As soon as the words fell, a wanton and arrogant laugh suddenly rang out from the very front of the battlefield. The sound was huge, echoing throughout the area, shaking the roof tiles until they trembled.

He saw a thin man wearing red armor, with a tall stature of about 1.85 meters, walking slowly out of the courtyard in front with a smile on his face.

His complexion was sallow like a sick person, his lips stained with cinnabar, and two dark red blood marks on his face; even his hair was a scarlet hue.

"You are 【Iron Wall】 Zhao Hanshan, right?"

Chiyue Fawang smiled, arms crossed, "Really didn't expect you to find your way here so quickly?"

"Chiyue Fawang, surrender voluntarily, and I can spare your life!"

Zhao Hanshan's voice was cold, his body clad in black mysterious armor, like a heavy iron tower.

"Spare my life?"

Chiyue Fawang chuckled, "I'm afraid it's too early to say that now. I've long heard that you, 【Iron Wall】 Zhao Hanshan, have cultivated the 【Iron Cloth Shirt Divine Skill】, your whole body as hard as an iron wall, indestructible. Tonight, I'd like to play with you, hehehe..."

Suddenly, Chiyue Fawang grinned, glanced at the dark courtyard behind him, and said, "Let our little brother come out and play with Zhao Hanshan."

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter...

"Roar!" "Roar!"

A series of strange sounds similar to wild beasts roaring suddenly came from the thick darkness, accompanied by a thick, bloody smell, as if some extremely terrifying creature had suddenly appeared.

Fang Yi, hiding in the dark, narrowed his eyes and stared carefully.

He saw that in the thick darkness, more than a dozen blood-red light spots suddenly lit up, demonic and scarlet, flickering with a strange aura.

Even Zhao Hanshan's pupils shrank, sensing something was wrong.

The burly body that was about to move forward stopped abruptly at this moment.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Amidst a series of low roars, more than a dozen blurred and strange blood-colored figures leaped out from the thick darkness, like meteors, smashing heavily into the wide courtyard.

The entire courtyard shook slightly.

He saw that these were actually more than a dozen huge figures, all blood-red, dripping with scarlet blood, covered with twisted blood vessels, their bodies smelling of blood and pungent, like skinned blood people.

They had mouths full of white teeth, their mouths split to the roots of their ears, revealing serrated bone teeth.

A series of brutal, ferocious, and terrifying auras erupted directly from their bodies...

Zhao Hanshan's expression changed slightly, his heart shaken.

"Blood Corpse! These are the Blood-Sucking Sect's Blood Corpses!"

He couldn't believe it.

"You guessed right."

Chiyue Fawang grinned, "This is the grand gift I carefully prepared for you. Zhao Hanshan, you are known as the Iron Wall, I wonder if you can be a match for my Blood Corpses? Babies, play well with this General Zhao!"

"Roar!"...

As soon as the words fell, the dozen or so ferocious Blood Corpses roared immediately, carrying a thick and heavy Blood Evil aura, and rushed wildly toward Zhao Hanshan, each of them so fast that only afterimages remained.

Cold light erupted in Zhao Hanshan's pupils, and he shouted sharply, swinging his fists and kicks, and charged directly at the dozen or so Blood Corpses.
