1117 Sword Holders, Appear! (3)
"Yao Tianyan, Zheng Kaiyi, such guts!" Soaring Cloud Ancestor walked out and stood in front of the army. His eyes were filled with killing intent and unprecedented joy rose in his heart as he sneered.
"It has been seven days since the Seventh Prince sent the order for conscription. While the battlefield is in crisis, with heavy casualties on our side, Fenghai County only cares about self-
preservation and is unwilling to send a single soldier or contribute in any way."
"Your actions are equivalent to colluding with the enemy. You are the scum of the human race!"
"Today, the Military Governor has personally arrived. If you still refuse to see reason, then is Fenghai County still part of the human race? Do you still have the Human Emperor above your heads? Is the righteous cause of the Human Clan still in your hearts?"
Soaring Cloud Ancestor had experienced too much in his lifetime, long cultivating profound wisdom. His words were filled with righteousness, every phrase tightly bound to the human race, far beyond the comparison of ordinary individuals.
At that moment, these impassioned words echoed. Even the middle-aged man on the white elephant lifted his head with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
When the people from Fenghai County heard this, they were all filled with grief and anger. Most of the cultivators from the three palaces had ashen expressions. They gritted their teeth and their eyes were filled with anger. In the sky, Marquis Yao took a step forward, looking indignant.
"You said that my Fenghai County only knows how to protect ourselves and isn't willing to send out a single soldier. In the past half a year, my Fenghai County has sent five batches, each with a million men. Even the Palace Master of Observance Palace, as well as many deacons from the three palaces were sent!"
"These millions of soldiers were the future hope of our Fenghai County and our only remaining troops!"
"We are already at the end of our rope."
"Now, you're here, distorting the truth!"
"You keep talking about the righteousness of the human race. Dare I ask how many of the five batches conscripted from Fenghai County are still alive? The Palace Master of the Observance Palace as well as many deacons died in battle in those foreign lands. Didn't they die for the righteousness of the human race?!"
"Our Fenghai County has experienced many things in recent years. We were the ones who shouldered the invasion of the Holy Wave. Three Palace Masters died in battle, and the County Governor died for no reason. The Seventh Prince came to plunder the spoils of war, looking like he came to save us, but everyone understands the truth!"
"Isn't the death of five batches of our Fenghai County's children enough? Could it be that even our last spark has to be extinguished?!"
Marquis Yao spoke solemnly. His gaze wasn't on Soaring Cloud Ancestor but on the army behind him. He enunciated each word with a clear conscience.
Old Master Seventh, who was beside him, also walked out. He looked at the white elephant in the army and calmly spoke.
"We have the righteousness of the human race in our hearts. We can also sacrifice ourselves, but it has to be worth it."
"I want to inquire Lord Military Governor, how many of the Seventh Prince's subordinates have been sent to the battlefield?"
The middle-aged man on the white elephant didn't put down the ancient book in his hand. He only spoke calmly to Soaring Cloud Ancestor.
"You still have eight moments left."
When Soaring Cloud Ancestor heard this, his eyes flashed with coldness as he swept his gaze across the city. Finally, he looked at Old Master Seventh, Marquis Yao, and the others and spoke coldly.
"The Palace Masters, Deputy Palace Masters, deacons, and the remaining Sword Holders shall be conscripted."
"The sect masters of the various sects will also participate in the battle."
"In addition… during the first conscription half a year ago, His Highness the Seventh Prince specifically named Xu Qing to participate in the first conscription half a year ago. You covered up using the excuse of his seclusion. This time, Xu Qing must participate in the battle!"
"In sevenfold minutes, including Xu Qing, everyone must present themselves!"
With that, Soaring Cloud Ancestor took a step forward.
This step sent a rumbling energy in all directions, causing the weather to change. A huge vortex formed in the sky. As it rumbled, everyone from Fenghai County turned furious and their auras rose.
A look of determination appeared in Marquis Yao's eyes. After exchanging glances with Old Master Seventh, there was an additional hint of determination in his eyes. His voice echoed with baleful intent.
"Three palaces!"
In an instant, the three Palace Masters behind him soared into the sky and let out deep shouts one after another.
This was especially so for the Sword Holding Palace, which was in charge of fighting. The current Palace Master who was once the Deputy Palace Master, uttered a killing intent that reverberated through the world.
"Sword Holders, appear!"
His voice echoed through the entire county capital. Many figures ascended from the ground and solemn voices rang out.
"Sword Holder Sun Chenwu is here!"
"Sword Holder Zhang Hao is here!"
"Sword Holder Lu Tao is here!"
…
Among the many voices, there was a voice that was exceptionally clear. It was like thunder had exploded in everyone's ears, stirring up endless waves.
"Sword Holder Xu Qing is here!"
