Chapter 241 The beast tide is coming!
"Who are you? What's going on? This is our camp, leave now!"
The soul masters of Wuhun Palace tried to drive away this group of people who looked no different from beggars.
"Can we, please give us something to eat? We, ahem..."
"Let's go, let's go! Leave now!"
Cheng Xiao quickly stepped forward and stopped them: "Wait. I'll ask them."
With that said, Cheng Xiao crossed the crowd, came to them, and asked in a deep voice: "Are you soldiers? Which team? Why is this happening? What happened?"
Those people were startled, and suddenly collapsed and cried: "We followed His Highness the Crown Prince to invade the Star Luo Empire. We were about to capture Lingfeng City, but in the end, a large group of soul beasts came out of nowhere and killed our army from the rear. Abandon armor.”
"His Royal Highness the Prince led us back, but the group of spirit beasts were chasing us like crazy, and seemed to be disciplined and organized, charging at us. Our army was scattered, only I can walk blindly to the north and I can’t even figure out where I am.”
"Soul beast?"
Everyone was stunned, even Yue Guan was confused.
In the eyes of people of this era, the soul beasts are just a bunch of stragglers without intelligence. How could they possibly gather together and start killing humans?
During this time period, even "animal tide" is an unfamiliar term!
The names of the top ten ferocious beasts don’t even exist yet!
Everyone only knew about the Blue Beef Python and the Titan Giant Ape, and they knew nothing about the ferocious beasts in the core area of the Star Dou Forest.
Only Cheng Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart thumped, thinking something bad was wrong.
Could it be that Di Tian launched the beast tide?
The importance of the Silver Dragon King is self-evident. Because of the death of the three-eyed golden beast, Emperor Tianneng launched a wave of beasts to fight to the death with Shrek Academy.
Now that he has taken the Silver Dragon King to the human world, it would be strange if Di Tian didn't go crazy!
Counting the time, Ditian had returned from that strange continent long ago. The delay in launching the beast tide until now is considered too slow!
"Russian——"
While Cheng Xiao was contemplating, suddenly, a rustling sound came from the forest.
Cheng Xiao suddenly felt his scalp numb and his whole body tense suddenly, looking behind the group of soldiers.
"Be careful! There is a soul beast!" Yue Guan's perception was also not weak, and he screamed immediately.
Everyone quickly set up their formation under Yue Guan's urging.
Cheng Xiao released the Shadow Domain, and the Shadow Domain spread out, covering the scene in the forest.
"Tens of thousands of soul beasts! Among them, there are more than a hundred ten thousand year soul beasts!" Cheng Xiao frowned and said in a deep voice.
"How do you know?" Hu Liena was stunned.
"Believe it or not!"
Cheng Xiao raised her chin and motioned for her to see for herself: "Here, you can wipe your eyes and see for yourself!"
Brush brush brush——
Countless soul beasts sprang out from the forest, their beast eyes filled with cruelty and killing, and a strong bloody aura spread across the surface.
"hiss--"
Hu Liena's expression changed drastically and she couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"Protect the Holy Son and Holy Lady!" Yue Guan shouted.
These soul beasts did not pose much of a threat to him, but it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. It would still take some time to completely eliminate these soul beasts.
During this period of time, these beasts must not be allowed to hurt Hu Liena and Cheng Xiao!
"yes!"
All the soul masters belonging to Wuhun Palace quickly formed a fan shape to protect Cheng Xiao and Hu Liena in the middle.
Suddenly, Cheng Xiao's expression changed. His solemn eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the forest and look into the darkness. A huge mountain-like creature broke into his territory silently!
And the pressure that that giant beast brought to him far exceeded that of any ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!
A hundred thousand year soul beast!
Cheng Xiao quickly warned: "Elder Ju, be careful. There is a big guy behind you. It's a hundred thousand year soul beast!"
"Um?"
Yue Guan suddenly raised his head, but it was too late.
Suddenly, it seemed as if a terrifying force came out of thin air and pressed firmly on Yue Guan's shoulders, causing his figure to fall involuntarily.
"Gravity? Titanosaurus?!"
Roar!
With a roar, a figure that seemed to be able to cover the sky sprang out of the forest, swung out a fist, and hit Yueguan hard!
——
"kill!"
Outside Lingfeng City, the Tiandou army was fearlessly charging towards the city wall. The soul masters were fighting against each other. The entire battlefield was filled with blood. The sun was setting, and the red clouds on the horizon seemed to be stained by the blood of this world.
Xue Qinghe looked at the battlefield where he was gradually gaining the upper hand expressionlessly, and his nervous mind gradually relaxed.
"By capturing Lingfeng City, this battle will be completely over. We can then negotiate with the Star Luo Empire."
After Zhu Mo was seriously injured, the Star Luo army retreated steadily and could not organize effective resistance at all, which allowed them to attack all the way into the hinterland of Star Luo.
Lingfeng City is a dangerous pass in the Star Luo Empire. As long as it is captured, it will be smooth sailing, all the way to the final pass outside the Star Luo Capital City.
If he can capture Lingfeng City, the Star Luo Empire will have no room for resistance. If the stalemate continues, more will be lost at the negotiation table.
"It's time for the war to end."
Xue Qinghe did not intend to attack the capital of Star Luo Kingdom all the way. He was not naive enough to destroy the country in one fell swoop with this strength.
Moreover, after being out for so long, the situation in Tiandou City is unknown. If the situation continues, the prince will be far away from the border, which may easily lead to accidents.
What's more important is that if there are really signs of destroying the country, the woman in Wuhun City will definitely not allow it and will definitely stop it.
She had to maintain the balance between the two empires in order to highlight the importance of the Spirit Hall.
Therefore, it is enough to give up as soon as possible and capture Lingfeng City.
While Xue Qinghe was deep in thought, the Tiandou army had completely taken advantage of the battlefield and occupied the top of Lingfeng City!
Seeing that victory was in sight, however, at this moment, suddenly, there was a commotion from behind the army.
"what happened?"
Xue Qinghe turned back in shock.
I saw a black torrent, slamming into the rear army. Everyone was thrown into chaos by this sudden attack. In just a few breaths, the rear army showed signs of collapse.
The team that was attacking the city in front was affected by the army in the rear. In panic, the situation took a turn for the worse. They were repelled by the Xingluo army and regained the city head.
"Reinforcements, reinforcements are coming! Everyone, hold on! They can't hold on any longer!" the Xingluo army shouted excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Tiandou's army was in great disarray. The generals could not restrain their troops and returned in defeat.
Xing Luo took the opportunity to open the city gate and chased them one after another.
The great situation collapsed due to the sudden appearance of unknown enemies from behind, and even faced the danger of being attacked from both sides!
This change happened so fast. Before Xue Qinghe could figure out who the opponent was in the rear, the army had already collapsed.
"His Royal Highness, leave quickly!"
The subordinates quickly grabbed Xue Qinghe and prepared to escape from the battlefield.
"Leave? Is that walking? That's escaping!" Xue Qinghe pushed them away and roared, "Which Xingluo army is behind them?"
The generals looked confused. Apparently, they couldn't figure out where the enemy that suddenly appeared came from.
Whoosh——
boom!
Suddenly, a flying soul master acting as a spy fell from the sky. He was covered in blood. He held up a letter and shouted reluctantly: "Report! Your Highness, we were attacked! We can't resist it." , our army suffered a disastrous defeat!"
Xue Qinghe took two steps down, grabbed the spy, and asked angrily: "Who? Who is leading the army?"
"Yes, it's a group of soul beasts!"
The anger on Xue Qinghe's face suddenly froze, replaced by a look of confusion.
"Soul beast?"
