Chapter 1557

"Generals of the Great Zhou, this is no place for you!"

The voice was icy beyond measure.

Yet, upon hearing it, Ji Hao merely sneered dismissively.

Then, without hesitation, he spoke.

"Kill! Annihilate the Demon Sage!"

As his words fell, the army charged forward, slashing through the enemy.

The two sides collided instantly.

The screeching of swords and blades rang continuously.

The Demon Sage's heart tightened involuntarily.

He had not expected the people of the Great Zhou to be so fearless, charging straight at him.

These Great Zhou soldiers, once they breached the enemy ranks, began slaughtering wildly.

Wherever they passed, friend or foe alike, blood stained the heavens.

"Roar!"

At that moment, a roar suddenly erupted from the sky.

There, atop the Jin Wu, stood Lord Donghuang, clad in crimson armor, majestic and terrifying.

In his hand, the Pangu Axe blazed with brilliant radiance.

Each strike carried the power to destroy heaven and earth.

"Boom!"

Finally, with a burst of explosion, the Demon Sage's chest was pierced clean through.

His younger brother, meanwhile, had his physical body shattered by Ji Hao's palm.

Then, Ji Hao's eyes glowed with bloodthirsty light.

He slowly spoke to the man beside him.

"Sikong Yuchi Gong, receive the imperial decree!"

"Your servant stands ready!"

At the sound, the man immediately bowed deeply.

"I bestow upon you the Zhu Xian Sword, to aid you in slaying the enemy commander."

"Remember, I demand total annihilation—no soul left alive!"

Ji Hao's voice was freezing cold.

And as soon as his order was given,

Sikong Yuchi Gong showed no hesitation whatsoever.

Clutching his blade, he vanished in a streak of light.

At this moment, he despised the demon race more than anything—had it not been for them, his father would not have perished.

Now that the Emperor had summoned him, even if he had to sacrifice his life, he must slay them all.

"Shhh! Shhh!"

His blade sliced through the heavens.

Streams of golden light crisscrossed the sky.

Splitting a demon named Peng Wangmo in two.

The demon's strength was merely Saint Level Eight—no match for Sikong Yuchi Gong.

Meanwhile, Lord Donghuang roamed the battlefield with unchecked dominance.

He directly blasted a Saint Level Nine demon expert out of the fight.

Finally, his soul was obliterated in an instant.

"Aaaah!"

Peng Wangmo let out a piercing scream.

Clearly, he had not expected Lord Donghuang's power to be so immense.

Not only him—even the other Demon Sages nearby wore grim, dark expressions.

"Kill!"

As Peng Wangmo's cry ended, he charged straight at Lord Donghuang.

This battle was of critical importance; none wished to see their own Demon Sages fall.

Yet Lord Donghuang remained utterly unfazed.

He swung the Pangu Banner.

Dozens of mighty dragons surged across heaven and earth.

Wherever they passed, every Demon Sage in their path was flung away.

Soon, the battlefield was thick with swirling blood mist.

Those watching from afar all wore expressions of horror.

The course of battle had surpassed all their expectations.

Meanwhile, Ximen Wudi held position outside the palace hall.

Yet he felt increasingly agitated.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards he had dispatched had confirmed the status of all reinforcements.

All were formidable.

Moreover, among them were not lacking experts at the ninth level of Great Power.

If Great Zhou did not produce a strong one to resist, this time it was truly dangerous.

Thinking of this, he prepared to summon his ministers to discuss matters.

"Your Majesty, there is a general requesting an audience!"

While he was pondering, Cao Zhengchun's voice rang out.

Then, Ji Hao walked out of the palace gate.

He saw that general kneel on the ground and speak.

"This general pays respects to Your Majesty.

Your subordinate, bearing Your Majesty's command, has come specifically to ask Your Majesty whether to dispatch reinforcements.

Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hold the city!"

Hearing the voice, Ji Hao's brow furrowed involuntarily.

"How many reinforcements are still needed!"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the various experts who have come this time to provide support — several hundred Great Powers, and even several strong ones at the ninth level of Saint. With such strength, if there is no aid from Great Zhou's experts, I'm afraid it will be somewhat tricky!"

Hearing the other's voice, Ji Hao did not hesitate and spoke.

"Send Kong Xuan and Xing Tian!

Also, have Tong Xiangyu follow along. You must slay all these monsters completely.

Now, the people of my Great Zhou are at the very moment of needing manpower — absolutely no one may retreat.

This battle, I must win!"

In his voice was boundless domineering spirit.

And that general, saying no more, directly withdrew.

A moment later, the entire Great Zhou was plunged into an atmosphere of solemn slaughter.

The aura of the Great Han's iron cavalry grew ever more majestic.

When all the warhorses gathered together once more.

A terrifying wave of air swept out toward the surroundings.

And at this moment, the Demon Marshal who was attacking Great Zhou also discovered this scene.

A glint flashed in his eyes, and he sneered.

"Hmph, how could the strength of our demon race possibly be matched by Great Zhou.

It seems today, Great Zhou is destined to be destroyed!"
