Book 5: Chapter 20: Circle And Check
Early the next morning, Su Xiangxue’s army immediately launched an attack on the city.
Unorganized, and not caring about battle damage, Su Xiangxue seemed to use the lives of demons as cannon fooders, and would not give up unless she took the city.
However, it has proved that fighting without thinking was not going to bring victory. The average quality of the army of the Black Snake King and the Four Demon Kings would have been slightly weaker than that of the Northern Demon and the Imperial Army, but now the latter has suffered great damage by Bai Qiuran. Most of the time, the remaining troops hid behind the city’s walls. Under the wise command of Prime Minister Yun Kun, they not only succeeded in holding onto the city but also slowly gained an advantage.
But the failure did not stop Su Xiangxue. At the same time the next day, she led the army rushed over again, and then swallowed the consequences of the failure again.
For three days in a row, she never gave her subordinates a chance to rest. The towers of this city were already piled up with the bones of the West Demon army, and under such a high-intensity attack, the Northern Demon Army and the Imperial Army also suffered many losses.
Three days later, Su Xiangxue still insisted on attacking, but turmoil broke out under her command. Several generals led the troops to revolt against the cruel master.
But it didn’t work. With the huge gap in level, those demon generals were killed quickly. The troops that resisted were directly brainwashed by Su Xiangxue and became fighting puppets. They all died under the walls of the city.
On the fourth day, after the fear and despair reached a climax, most of the troops under Su Xiangxue defected. They fled the battlefield, fled back, and fled in the direction of the West Demon.
However, Su Xiangxue didn’t care about these deserters this time, she just silently commanded the remaining troops under her command and continued to attack.
Finally, on the fifth day, Su Xiangxue took the remaining twenty people and personally came under the wall of the border city.
The White Fox King also personally boarded the tower to face her last wave of offensive.
And in the early morning of this day, the White Bear King got up early to check the situation in the Splashing Ink Immortal Painting and found that Bai Qiuran was lying motionless at the foot of a mountain in the world in the painting.
There was no more splashing ink immortal around him to attack him. Obviously, even this magic weapon believed that Bai Qiuran had lost the ability to resist.
So the White Bear King hurriedly called other Demon Kings to plunder the formation, and everyone came to the bottom of the city’s secret room. In this place where hundreds of forbidden formations were set up, the White Bear King carefully removed Bai Qiuran from the Immortal Painting.
With a click, Bai Qiuran fell to the icy floor, and the formation in the secret chamber was immediately activated. Dozens of restrictions were placed on him in an instant, but Bai Qiuran remained motionless.
The White Bear King carefully stretched out his hand and touched his neck artery, and found that Bai Qiuran’s heart seemed to be dead, and it was only beating like a corpse after a long time, and his purple mansion and spiritual platform were also dead silent, and all his true energy was shrinking Inside the Purple Mansion, he didn’t move.
Flying Tiger King suddenly yelled and stomped on Bai Qiuran’s hand.
The strength of this foot made the whole city faintly tremble, and the Flying Tiger King squeezed it back and forth before retracting the sole of his foot.
Demon Kings looked at each other for a while. Finally, the White Bear King couldn’t help but said in surprise:
“Comrades, we succeeded!”
The demon kings all showed joy, but Prime Minister Yun Kun hurried forward and tore off the storage bag from Bai Qiuran’s waist.
Due to having no True Qi, his storage bag remained in an unowning state. Prime Minister Yun Kun easily made it his own, then checked the content. Ignoring the spirit stones, spare clothes, a few jars of fairy wine, and a lot of iron swords, he took out the map fragments that Bai Qiuran had placed in the innermost area, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
“Is there anything good in it?”
Seeing Prime Minister Yun Kun’s actions, several Demon Kings gathered around and asked.
Prime Minister Yun Kun didn’t answer, but just showed the storage bag in his hand, and the Soul Awareness of several Demon Kings scanned it at the same time, and then all revealed a disappointed look.
“Why are you so poor?”
The Dragon King sighed.
“Except for these piles of spirit stones, these jars of wine, and a large piece of unprocessed jade, what are the other things? What about magic weapons? What about secret techniques? What does this pile of iron swords mean? He is the pillar of the human race anyway. ”
“Perhaps he simply can’t use it at all.”
The White Bear King took out a few jars of fairy wine from the storage bag.
“Come on, guys, let’s go back to a dinner party tonight and use the wine of this Sword Patriarch!”
“Well, I think that today’s Royal Highness who can’t fight at all is about to lose. After the White Fox King captures her, let’s have a banquet together again!”
Seeing several demon kings talking and laughing, Prime Minister Yun Kun asked:
“Everyone, what should we do to Sword Patriarch now?”
“Sword Patriarch’s body is hard to be injured, so now we can’t kill him under this condition.”
The White Bear King pondered and said:
“First put him in the dungeon, wait until we’re back to the imperial capital, and then refine him with the large melting pot in the imperial capital.”
Prime Minister Yun Kun hesitated for a moment, feeling something wrong.
“Yun Fengge believes that it is safer to put him in the Splashing Ink Immortal Painting .”
“I think so too.”
The White Bear King sneered and said:
“But does Prime Minister Yun think that this ancient immortal treasure is so easy to control?”
“What does the White Bear King mean?”
“In order to drive it, I made a deal with the spirit of it, supplemented it with a whole spiritual energy vein, and offered hundreds of loyal soldiers as blood sacrifices. Only then can I barely drive it to fight for me. In order to exhaust the Sword Patriarch, this spirit has already exhausted its own energy. If you want to use it again, you need to replenish it. Where can I find a spirit vein and hundreds of blood sacrifices now?”
The White Bear King was rather helpless.
“This… alright.”
Prime Minister Yun Kun sighed:
“I’ll go and store the fragments of the map first, White Bear King, what about your copy?”
“It’s on me, what’s up?”
The White Bear King replied subconsciously:
“I won’t give it to you now. When the battle is over and the waste is cleaned up, we will open the FirstDemon Emperor Mausoleum together and compete together. Whoever wins will become the Demon Emperor.”
“Ugh.”
Prime Minister Yun Kun sighed.
“I’d better put away the fragments of this map first.”
He turned and left, and the White Bear King also took a few Demon Kings and walked out with a smile.
Several guards walked in, framed Bai Qiuran who was lying on the ground and walked towards the dungeon.
For the demon race, everything seemed to be developing in a good situation, but none of them noticed that Bai Qiuran, who should be limp and unconscious, moved his ears slightly when he was lifted out of the door by the guards.
