Chapter 100

Translator: Transn  Editor: Transn

In the southern frontier of Skymoon Country, flames of war raged everywhere.

The armies of Ironforest Country and Skymoon Country had already fought dozens of battles with ups and downs on both sides. The war situation was temporarily at a stalemate.

Ironforest Country was Skymoon Country's neighboring country to the south. It not only had the population of hundreds of millions but also a stronger national power than Skymoon Country had.

At this time, it assembled an army of 800,000 to attack Skymoon Country. Ironforest Country's army was divided into eight groups and they marched along different routes. Skymoon Country was caught unprepared for that kind of assault. Nothing could stop it. Soon, Ironforest Country occupied dozens of Skymoon Country's cities.

As one of the magnificent cities in the southern frontier of Skymoon Country, Guanwu City was 25 kilometers in both length and breadth, and millions of people lived there.

Senior General Mo Tie of Ironforest Country led an army of 100,000, which was sweeping forward from victory to victory, and arrived at this city.

To defend themselves against Ironforest Country's attack, Skymoon Country also stationed an army of 100,000 there.

At noon, in the shining sunshine, four dusty young men rode war horses and approached the northern gate of Guanwu City.

"Here we are!"

At the gate, looking at the magnificent city in front of them, the four people were very excited.

These four people were Su Mo and others.

After journeying for dozens of days, they finally arrived at Guanwu City.

Ironforest Country's army was divided into eight groups marching to attack Skymoon Country. And Guanwu City was just one of the cities that they attacked.

Therefore, Su Mo and others chose this city as their destination.

Looking at the towering city wall in front of him, a solemn gleam came into Su Mo's eyes.

The city wall of Guanwu City was over 30 meters high and completely built by diamond rocks.

But now, the towering wall had already fallen into ruins. Many parts of it were broken, and some parts were just repaired.

Meanwhile, the startling, dry purplish-black blood was covering the whole city wall.

It was obvious that this city had just experienced a great war—an extremely tragic war.

"Let's go! Let's go to the city!"

Su Mo called out and they rode toward the city gate.

"Who is it? Get off the horse and be checked!"

At the gate stood dozens of guards. After seeing Su Mo and the others, one of the guard leaders shouted to them.

Su Mo nodded his head and was just about to get off. Suddenly, the sound of hooves came from behind him at that moment.

He turned around and saw a group of seven or eight young people. They galloped at a high speed and rushed directly to the city gate.

"Stop!"

Seeing that this group of people was about to dart into the city, the guard leader suddenly cried angrily and quickly stopped them in front of the gate.

"We're the Scorching Sun Sect's disciples. Do you dare to stop us? Go away!"

On a galloping war horse, a tall youth coldly grunted and threw a punch to beat the guard leader away.

Immediately, dust was rising from all directions and those people quickly rode into Guanwu City.

"Scorching Sun Sect's disciples? How arrogant they are!" Li Feng said angrily.

"Those who are arrogant may not live long. I wish they could survive in the coming war!"

Su Mo shook his head and smiled.

As Skymoon Country's royal family asked the four Sects for help, it was certain that the four sects would send disciples to enter the war. So the purpose of these people was exactly the same as theirs.

However, their behavior made Su Mo have an unfavorable attitude toward the Scorching Sun Sect's disciples.

There was war happening right now, so it made sense that the guards checked the identities of the people entering the city to prevent any spies from Ironforest Country.

But these Scorching Sun Sect's disciples relied on their identities of Sect disciples to act so capriciously.

Su Mo shook his head. Then they went up and took out their jade identification badges of Gale Island to enter the city.

Even on the wide street, which was bustling in its former days, there was nobody in sight at this time, and the whole city was full of the repressive atmosphere before the storm.

After entering Guanwu City, they went directly to the Mansion of the City Governor.

The Mansion of the City Governor in Guanwu City occupied an area of a thousand acres. It stood in the center of the city just like a giant castle.

Su Mo and the others showed their identities before the castle, and a young guard led them into it.

"Everyone, our city governor has already arranged rooms for every Sect disciple. Please follow me," the guard said.

666

"Brother, do you know how many disciples of the four Sects have already come to Guanwu City?" Li Feng asked the guard.

666

"In these few days, there have been over 300 Sect disciples arriving in the city. Among them, most are from the Scorching Sun Sect and the Sky Yuan Sect. Disciples from the Sky Rapier Sect and Gale Island are rather few," replied the guard.

666

"How is the war situation?" Su Mo asked.

"Alas! Not optimistic!"

This guard sighed and replied with a serious look. "Ironforest Country's army has already organized three attacks, which got stronger and stronger. And 40 percent of our army of 100,000 stationed in the city is already gone!"

"40 percent?" Su Mo and the others sniffed in consternation. Losing 40 percent of the force meant 40,000 soldiers had died in the war.

"In such a short time, Skymoon Country actually had such a big loss?"

"Luckily, Ironforest Country was not better than us. They also lost over 30,000 people," the guard said.

Su Mo nodded. It made sense that each side in the war had losses. If only Skymoon Country suffered such a heavy loss, while Ironforest Country did not, then there was no doubt that Skymoon Country would fail.

At that time, even the four Sects would not allow it. And they would not just send Outer Disciples to assist them.

Because the entire Skymoon Country was actually the country of the four Sects. Even the royal family was just their puppet.

If the four Sects wanted to, they were truly able to change the royal family and dynasties.

From this point of view, Ironforest Country was similar to Skymoon Country.

However, the difference was that Ironforest Country did not have the four Sects, which caused a strength dispersion. In their country, they only had the Ulti-mystery Sect, the strongest Sect in Ironforest Country.

The Ulti-mystery Sect was the overlord of the entire Ironforest Country, which meant that it occupied a dominant role in the country.

In other words, the war between Ironforest Country and Skymoon Country was, in fact, a war between the Ulti-mystery Sect and the four Sects.

It was not the first war between the two countries. Actually, every three years they made a small battle and every five years they started a big war.

The war was normally between the two countries' ordinary troops. It already had a rule that only martial artists that were under the True Spirit Realm could join the war.

After all, martial artists above the True Spirit Realm were the top strong ones in both countries. Once they joined the war, the losses would be immeasurable, and both sides were unable to bear the consequences.

As long as the two countries did not play really hard, they generally did not dispatch the True Spirit Realm martial artists.

Su Mo and the others followed this guard and came to a courtyard after a little while.

"There are many rooms here, so you can stay! Servants will come to give you food and water!"

The guard took them to that place, then turned around and went back.

They entered the courtyard and chose a room to stay respectively.

"Su Mo, we're going to walk around in the Mansion of the City Governor. Will you join us?"

Li Feng, Niu Xiaohu, and Zhou Xin came to Su Mo's room and asked him.

"No, I'll pass. You three go!"

Su Mo thought for a while, and then he shook his head.

The fourth realm of his Elephant's Strength Skill had been almost completed at this moment, and the strength of his body had greatly increased. He could not wait to attempt to condense the fifth Spiritual Spiral.

"Fine! In that case, we'll go!"

After they left, Su Mo sat down and silently operated Nine Spirals Mystique to condense the fifth Spiritual Spiral.

Time trickled by.

In the room, with the condensation of the Spiritual Spiral, Su Mo's face gradually became hideous with great pain.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

After another hour, a mist of blood suddenly appeared from Su Mo's body and his clothes were dyed red.
