The fate of the city is the responsibility of every citizen! Let's fight them to the death!
Buzz—!
The entire eastern city wall trembled slightly due to the appearance of this power.
"You... what are you doing here! This is nonsense!"
Wang Junyi snapped back to his senses and let out a roar at the group of noble family scions who had suddenly appeared.
"This is a battlefield! Not a place for you to play house! Retreat at once!"
"Chief General Wang."
Gu Ningxue held her longsword, her cold voice ringing out.
"The survival of the city is everyone's responsibility."
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally firm.
"Though we are women, we also understand the righteousness of home and country. If Yan Capital falls, we won't escape death either. Rather than waiting for death, it's better to fight with all our might!"
"Well said!"
Song Yao swung the chain blade in her hand, producing a crisp "clatter."
She stepped onto the edge of the city wall, her purple figure fluttering in the wind.
"I, Song Yao, want to see today just how tough the bones of these beasts really are!"
"The survival of the city is everyone's responsibility!"
"Fight to the death, no retreat! Defend our home!"
The other noble family scions also drew their weapons one after another, shouting in unison.
Their faces might still have carried a trace of youthfulness, but their eyes were filled with the same resolve as those battlefield veterans!
"You all..."
Wang Junyi looked at this group of young people, momentarily speechless.
What could he say?
That they didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth?
But they were using their actions to interpret the blood and responsibility of the sons and daughters of Longxia!
"Good! Good! Good!"
Zhao Tlong leaned on his giant axe and laughed heartily.
"Well said! The survival of the city is everyone's responsibility! Today, we'll have a grand battle with these beasts!"
"Kill!"
Gu Ningxue said no more. As the word "Kill" left her lips, she had already turned into a streak of white lightning, proactively charging toward the endless army of Vicious Wolves below the city.
Sword light flashed like dancing pear blossoms. With every flash of sword light, a hideous Vicious Wolf was instantly slain!
"Hmph! Let's see who kills more!"
Song Yao gave a delicate shout. The chain blade in her hand was like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, instantly coiling around an elite-level Vicious Wolf and giving a fierce twist!
Puchi!
That Vicious Wolf didn't even have time to scream before it was directly ground into a shower of shredded meat!
"Go!"
On the city wall, Lin Ke'er's small face was serious as she activated the nine dragons bagua mirror.
The killing Formation composed of dozens of weapons instantly turned into a torrent of steel, diving down and plowing a long path of blood and flesh through the wolf pack!
For a moment, the decline of the battlefield seemed to be halted.
These top-tier youths of Yan Capital displayed a powerful combat strength that belied their age.
Their joining was like a shot of adrenaline, reigniting the fighting spirit of the already desperate soldiers!
"Kill! For Yan Capital!"
"Fight these beasts to the end!"
The sounds of killing shook the heavens and earth once again.
However, after a brief moment of shock and anger, a trace of human-like disdain appeared in the blood-red giant eyes of the most terrifying Fierce Evil Blood Dragon.
It didn't even bother to pay attention to those "little bugs" who were slaughtering the ordinary Vicious Wolves.
Its goal was only one.
And that was to destroy the city before its eyes!
"Roar—!!!"
Another earth-shattering roar.
This time, it no longer condensed a light pillar. Instead, it moved its limbs, which were like heavenly pillars, and launched a charge toward the eastern city wall!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth wailed and cracked frantically under its trampling!
That massive body, carrying an unrivaled sense of oppression, crashed over like a moving primordial demonic mountain!
"Not good! Stop it quickly!"
Wang Junyi's face instantly turned pale.
If it actually hit, the entire section of the city wall would be instantly smashed into powder!
"Ningxue Sword Formation!"
Gu Ningxue gave a delicate shout and pointed her longsword. Several sharp streaks of Sword Qi pierced through the air, slashing toward the Blood Dragon's eyes.
"Heavenly Net!"
Song Yao's chain blade also extended infinitely, attempting to wrap around the Blood Dragon's giant feet.
"Nine Dragons Strangulation!"
Lin Ke'er pushed the power of the Formation to its absolute limit!
However, all these attacks falling on the Fierce Evil Blood Dragon's massive body were like an ant trying to shake a tree—laughable and overestimating their own strength!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Sword Qi slashed against its eyelids, failing to leave even a white mark before being entirely deflected.
The chain blade, which was enough to strangle an elite Vicious Wolf, was directly sent flying by a massive force the moment it touched the Blood Dragon's scales!
And the most powerful weapon killing Formation only produced a few insignificant sparks on the Blood Dragon's body.
The gap!
An insurmountable gap!
This was simply not a battle on the same level!
"It's over..."
These two words welled up in everyone's hearts.
And right at this moment, an even more despair-inducing scene occurred.
Behind the Fierce Evil Blood Dragon, the beast tide that had originally thinned out slightly became dense once again.
The dark mass of beasts, like a flood that had breached a dam, came surging frantically from the end of the horizon.
Moreover, the auras of the Vicious Beasts appearing this time were even stronger and more violent than before!
There were more and more Strange Beasts!
Endless!
It was as if the Vicious Beasts of the entire wilderness were converging toward Yan Capital!
The sliver of hope that had just ignited was completely crushed at this moment, turning into an even deeper despair.
"The... the west! They've appeared in the west too!"
A lookout soldier let out a heart-wrenching roar, his voice carrying a sob.
"The... South City Gate is in danger! Requesting reinforcements! Requesting reinforcements!"
Intermittent, static-filled cries for help from other war zones came through the communicator.
Besieged on all sides!
The entire Yan Capital was surrounded!
However!
Right at this critical juncture!
Two voices, one male and one female, suddenly appeared.
One was coarse and heroic, overbearingly peerless!
The other was cold and ethereal, incomparably sharp!
Like thunder from the Nine Heavens, they suddenly resounded through the entire world!
"Hmph! What a beast! To dare injure our Dragon Xia Kingdom's Great General Protecting the Nation! Do you truly think our Dragon Xia Kingdom has no one left?!"
"Sword, come!"
Rumble—!!!
The moment those words fell!
Two streaks of light, brilliant to the extreme, shot over from the horizon at a terrifying speed that completely ignored spatial distance!
They shot over from the horizon!
One was a golden streak of light, pure to the extreme and filled with a sense of power.
It was like a meteorite falling from beyond the Nine Heavens!
It arrived first although launched later!
It slammed heavily onto the massive head of that Fierce Evil Blood Dragon, which was just about to launch an attack.
Boom—!!!
An earth-shattering explosion!
The world-destroying light pillar that had already gathered to its peak in the mouth of that overbearing Fierce Evil Blood Dragon was actually forced back by the pressure!
It let out an angry roar.
And the other streak of light!
It was a silver sword light, cold as the moon yet so sharp it seemed capable of cutting through all things!
That sword light didn't go to attack the Fierce Evil Blood Dragon.
Instead, like a silver heavenly river, it swept across the top of the city wall!
Chii! Chii! Chii! Chii! Chii!
In an instant!
Below the city wall, the tens of thousands of Vicious Beasts that were frantically climbing the wall!
Their bodies suddenly stiffened!
The next second.
Countless fine lines of blood emerged from their bodies!
Immediately following.
Puchi—!!!
The bodies of thousands upon thousands of Vicious Beasts were simultaneously sliced into shredded meat by that omnipresent, terrifying Sword Qi!
With just one sword strike!
All enemies below the East Gate were cleared!
Silence!
The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence once again!
