Chapter 305: Xia Wuhui"s Death Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"Kill!"
As the various marshals gave the command, the million-strong army all moved—even Azure Dragon Empire"s General Long advanced. The alliance army was superior to the Great Xia Kingdom, be it in the number of total soldiers or in the number of experts. They were prepared to use the fastest method to kill all the experts in Summer Rain City and to extinguish the Great Xia Kingdom.
Once the experts in the alliance army made a move, the entire situation had changed. The Great Xia Kingdom was originally suppressed; now, they were completely fighting under oppression. It could even be considered as… a slaughter.
How many Soul Travel Realm experts did the Great Xia Kingdom have? Not even ten thousand, and this was after the Su Clan acc.u.mulated their strength for several years after the previous war. There were even lesser fifth-stage Soul Travel Realm experts, numbering around seven or eight hundred.
In contrast to that—no need to count the alliance army, just the Azure Dragon Empire itself had about eight thousand Soul Travel Realm experts, with more than a thousand who were fifth-stage Soul Travel Realm. The other kingdoms" army wasn"t as exaggerating—but once the numbers were added up, it became a horrific number.
Pong! Pong!
Tsk-tsk!
There were explosions everywhere, and there were dead people everywhere, too. The experts from the alliance army had rushed to the frontline. When facing against the Great Xia Kingdom"s army, it was like a lion rushing into a group of lambs. It was simply a bloodbath. Especially the Azure Dragon Empire"s Soul Travel Realm experts who were all equipped with spirit or heaven artifacts, allowing them to cut humans effortlessly like cutting watermelons.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Despite the case, the Great Xia Kingdom still wasn"t routed yet; and they were all rushing in towards the alliance army like mad devils. Many of them were looking at Jiang Yi, who was far away slaughtering the Divine Martial Kingdom"s army, while revealing this sinister smile. They knew that the longer they dragged on, the more enemies Jiang Yi could kill.
Escaping would lead to death, fighting would also lead to death. Why shouldn"t they take a risk? At least, they could pull more people into the grave with them.
Su Ruoxue was still standing on top of the city walls while Su Diw.a.n.g had already been escorted back into the royal palace. During this period of time, Su Diw.a.n.g nearly fell apart. When he heard that the evacuated princes, princesses, and elites of the Su Clan were all eliminated, he couldn"t take it anymore. Without Su Diw.a.n.g, Su Ruoxue naturally took the highest authority. She had this icy cold expression and as she scanned the surroundings, she suddenly yelled out with her delicate voice. "Sound the drums!"
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The city walls quickly echoed with a strange sound of war drums. This drumming sound was very rhythmic, but it didn"t sound like a signal to advance or retreat.
Swish! Swish!
When this war drum echoed, the military and the experts on the Great Xia Kingdom"s side suddenly changed their formation. Many of the soldiers quickly rushed to both sides, opening up a giant s.p.a.ce in front of the north city gates. More than two hundred experts, who had the bloodlines of the Su Clan, quickly rushed into s.p.a.ce. When the frontlines of the Great Xia Kingdom"s army fighting against the alliance army had fallen, half of their eyes glowed brightly.
Swish!
At the same moment, Su Ruoxue and more than twenty remaining Soul Travel Realm experts all flew over while their eyes lit up with purple light as well.
"Purple Charm Divine Light! Retreat!"
"Quickly retreat…"
Swish! Swish!
The Su Clan"s abnormal movements quickly alerted the marshals of the alliance army, and several generals all burst out and yelled while countless experts all escaped to the two sides.
Tsk-tsk!
Over one hundred purple lights glowed up and turned into over a hundred light pillars as they were shot out. These purple lights had the speed of lasers, and once it flashed, it immediately approached the alliance army. A tragedy immediately happened.
Tsk-tsk!
All the martial artists, who were struck by the purple light, had a giant hole in their bodies. If they were hit on the head, their head would be turned into dust while their bodies were standing in place, turning them into headless corpses.
The purple light was very domineering, and every purple ray could shoot out more than tens of thousands of feet. All those soldiers in the purple rays" ways would end up with a giant hole in their bodies. In fact, the majority of these people couldn"t even feel pain and would simply let out a scream after seeing the huge hole in their chest before they suddenly collapsed.
Brutal!
Jiang Yi took a glance, and his blood red eyes had a flash of bewilderment. It was just over a hundred individuals releasing the Purple Charm Divine Light, and at least two thousand enemies were killed in just a single round. If there were more than ten thousand of them who could release this purple ray constantly, would it be effortless to kill an army of a million?
Tsk-tsk!
After shooting the Purple Charm Divine Light, the Su Clan"s martial artists quickly backed off while the back row of Su clansmen rushed forward and continued the barrage of purple rays. Over one hundred purple rays were shot would again, which killed yet another batch of enemies.
The strange thing was…
During this period of time, plenty of Soul Travel Realm experts released their essence force attacks, but these Purple Charm Divine Lights immediately penetrated these essence force attacks without any explosion.
Furthermore, when these essence force attacks were shot at the Su clansmen, the nearby Great Xia Kingdom"s soldiers all jumped in and used their bodies to block these essence force attacks, protecting the Su clansmen behind.
Tsk-tsk!
Just like this, the Su clansmen would take turns in shooting out the Purple Charm Divine Light, killing groups and groups of alliance army. While the alliance army would constantly release the essence force attacks, killing those Great Xia Kingdom"s soldiers who would jump in to die. The battle between the two sides had become a battle of attrition!
"Hahaha! Have they exhausted all options? How many times can they release the Purple Charm Divine Light? Wait till their soul spirit are exhausted, and this battle shall end at the same time!"
Xia Wuhui didn"t go forward and only observed the situation remotely while being protected by peak-stage Soul Travel Realm secret guards.
Jiang Yi was still slaughtering the Divine Martial Kingdom"s army, but he didn"t feel any sense of loss. Instead, he quietly said to Eunuch Wei, "Eunuch Wei, you sneak over there stealthily, and when they released the Purple Charm Divine Light for the tenth time, I reckon that most of them will be frail and will faint. You go capture that Su Ruoxue for me. I want to bring that b.i.t.c.h back to torture alive…"
"Alright!"
Eunuch Wei nodded and quickly slinked within the army, detouring towards Su Ruoxue.
"En?"
When he was about kilometers away, he suddenly felt his heart palpitate as he felt this intense sense of insecurity. His crooked back suddenly straightened up as his eyes looked over at Jiang Yi"s position with lightning speed.
"Not good!"
At this moment, Jiang Yi"s body suddenly vanished as he released the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art again. In the next second when he reappeared, he was just a few hundred meters away from Xia Wuhui. Eunuch Wei roared out with fright, "Crown Prince! Run quickly!"
"En?"
The Soul Travel Realm secret guards beside Xia Wuhui were all roused up at this moment. Every one of them had eyes of shock and astonishment as they a.s.sumed that Jiang Yi had been afraid to approach any expert beyond the fifth stage of Soul Travel Realm. Why did he dare to instant shift so near to Xia Wuhui?
Swish!
The three peak-stage Soul Travel Realm secret guards quickly split up. Two of them rushed at Jiang Yi while the other carried Xia Wuhui and retreated with lightning speed.
"Die—!"
Jiang Yi"s Fire Dragon Sword abruptly cleaved down while his Fire Spirit Pearl lit up at the same time. He had yet to use any of the Fire Spirit Rocks, and this time, he immediately took out three of it and flicked it in front.
"Flee!"
The moment when Jiang Yi took out the Fire Spirit Rock, the two peak-stage Soul Travel Realm secret guards were frightened as that dreadfully-high heat caused them to smell the presence of death. If they continued to rush at Jiang Yi, they might be able to kill him; but they would surely die as well. Hence, they instinctively chose to flee.
"Ahh! Ahh! Ahh!"
As the Fire Spirit Rock flew forward, all the soldiers and commanders let out screams of despair. Those two peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts could feel their bodies burning up, but their reaction speed was considered fast and actually managed to escape.
What a close call!
The two of them looked at each other and saw the rejoicing eyes after surviving the calamity. Soon, their joy quickly turned into fear. When they saw Jiang Yi"s body vanishing again, they quickly came to realize something and yelled out, "Crown Prince, be careful!"
Buzz!
The two of them called out too late as Jiang Yi"s body appeared in the nearby vicinity of Xia Wuhui. The first thing he did was to take out the Fire Spirit Rock.
"No, no…"
When Xia Wuhui saw Jiang Yi reappearing, he had a shocking realization; and when he saw the Fire Spirit Rock, he yelled out with despair.
"Let"s die together then!"
The Soul Travel Realm expert carrying Xia Wuhui could feel the dreadful heat from the Fire Spirit Rock as he had this expression of despair. In such a close distance, he knew that he didn"t even have to mention Xia Wuhui—even he wouldn"t be able to escape.
He didn"t escape and rushed at Jiang Yi recklessly instead. He lifted his hand and shot out two finger forces, aiming at Jiang Yi"s head and heart. In such a close distance, he was confident that Jiang Yi would die before he had the chance to shift away.
