Section 148

Today was the third day, and during her rest, Sun Yazhu didn't waste a single minute, dedicating it to refining the Purple Golden Cauldron.

Sun Yazhu finally understood the meaning of the phrase that a person's potential is infinite in a high-pressure environment.

Sun Yazhu constantly forced herself to accelerate the refining of the Purple Golden Cauldron during her free time, and finally, today, it seemed she was close to completely controlling this Divine Artifact.

Once the Divine Artifact was completely refined, Sun Yazhu would be able to use the Purple Golden Cauldron to fight enemies.

With the Divine Artifact in hand, she would surely be able to instantly kill one of the three when they relaxed!

The other Four Women had the same idea, so after the battle ended, they all gathered around Sun Yazhu to protect her.

"You five stinky bitches in Ling City, get out here!"

"You used eighty thousand soldiers to hold us off for three days. Now, your troops have suffered more than half casualties. Let's see how much longer you can resist!"

But just then, a deafening roar suddenly came from outside Ling City.

The Five Women's expressions changed, knowing that the Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor from the Nichao Empire had brought his troops again.

These past few days, every time he went into battle, he would let out a couple of roars, as if it were his personal characteristic.

But that wasn't all; the main thing was that this Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor had an incredibly foul mouth. Every time, he would insult the Five Women until their faces were ashen, yet they were completely helpless against him.

The gap in hard power was here; the Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor's words just now were also true.

The soldiers defending inside Ling City now numbered less than forty thousand. Most of them had been attacked and killed by the Nichao Empire's Three Martial Emperors, suffering heavy casualties.

Even though they had all undergone special training in Xia Feng's dream, they still appeared incredibly weak in the face of absolute combat power.

If there were no Earth Rank Martial Emperors participating in the battle, the eighty thousand people in Ling City, let alone defending against one hundred thousand of the enemy, could have held their ground even if the enemy force was doubled.

But unfortunately, there weren't that many 'what ifs'. The Nichao Empire, having lost the Ten Martial Emperors all at once, was now enraged. Their only goal was to capture Ling City and bring Xia Feng back to wash away their shame!

"Sister Yazhu, is the Purple Golden Cauldron not ready yet?" Life Saintess Xiao Qingxue's expression wasn't very good.

"No, I feel like it's still a bit short. Damn it, just that last bit!"

Sun Yazhu angrily clenched her small fist and smashed it onto the Purple Golden Cauldron.

She felt that her control over the Purple Golden Cauldron had reached ninety-nine percent, but she couldn't find the key point for the last one percent.

If she could control the Purple Golden Cauldron, how could this Fiend still be barking here!

She would have instantly killed him first!

Let him see the power of a Divine Artifact!

Chapter 180: The Crisis of the Five Holy Maidens

"Three Earth Rank Martial Emperors, the power gap is too big. If the other sisters were here, it would be great. If we had the Ten Absolute Formation, our soldiers wouldn't have suffered so many casualties." Magic Sound Saintess Qi Wan'er's expression was very wronged.

"Let's not think about useless things. Sisters, prepare to face the enemy."

Sky Fox Saintess Yu Siya sighed, then was the first to stand up, a determined look appearing on her beautiful face.

"Before Husband returns, we have to rely on ourselves." She turned to the Four Women and said.

"Husband and the others went to the Great Barren Mountain Range, and I don't know how long it will take for them to return. I really don't want to wait for him to come back and find that Ling City is just a pile of ruins." Heavenly Talisman Saintess Li Shiqing pursed her lips tightly, speaking with both unwillingness and defiance.

"This Ling City was hard-won by Husband. As wives, how can we lose our man's things!"

"No matter what, we must hold on!"

"Good!"

The Five Women responded in unison, then shot up into the sky, quickly taking up positions according to the Five Elements, and the fluctuations of the Five Elements Formation surged out again.

Seeing this, the soldiers below also quickly formed ranks, channeling the spiritual power of the army formation into the Five Elements Formation, assisting the Five Women in resisting the enemy.

General General Gu Sha and Chen Hongyu were only Huang Realm Martial Emperors, but they were also fearless, using the power of the army formation below to leap up and rush into the sky.

"Heh, they're really not afraid of death."

The Fiend revealed a hideous smile, then with a wave of his hand, the Nichao Empire soldiers behind him also began to form army formations, strengthening the spiritual power onto him and the other two Earth Rank Martial Emperors.

"Or are you waiting for that kid named Xia to come back and turn the tide?"

"I'll tell you, to ensure that stinky kid is brought back to the Nichao Empire, the Azure Emperor has sent out two full Earth Rank Martial Emperors for him."

"Perhaps what you wait for is just a useless cripple with his cultivationWaste and no vitality, hahahaha!"

The Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor's mouth was quite foul. He wanted to provoke the Five Women to make them reveal their flaws.

But the Five Women's hearts were like still water. Facing the other party's provocation, there was no expression on their faces.

As the wives of the Imperial Son of the Great Xia Empire and also the Holy Maidens of a Top-Grade Saint Realm, their mental fortitude was extremely strong.

How could they be thrown into disarray by just a few words?

"It seems I'll have to kill a few of you before you understand that surrender is your best option."

The Fiend showed a bored expression. He took out the dagger in his hand, then stuck out his tongue and licked the tip of the blade, grinning hideously.

"Fire Fox, Shengxiao, let's go!"

"Boom!"

The Three Earth Rank Martial Emperors immediately flew towards the top of Ling City. Seeing this, the Five Women immediately met them, engaging in a fierce battle.

Fortunately, they were the defending side, and the army formation's spiritual power they received far surpassed that of the Three Earth Rank Martial Emperors.

If they had encountered the enemy in the wilderness, they would have probably perished along with the army long ago.

Soon, countless flashes of swords and blades flickered in the sky above Ling City, and waves of spiritual energy collisions followed one after another, making the sky oppressively suffocating.

Soon, half an hour passed.

The soldiers of Ling City of the Great Xia Empire were thrown into disarray in several waves by the full assault of the Nichao Empire.

They were terrified to find that the Nichao Empire army did not attack in three groups as before, but all rushed forward in a swarm, roaring and attacking the city with their weapons, fearless of death.

The Three Earth Rank Martial Emperors in the sky were also completely different from before. They did not, like in previous battles, just kill some of Qing City's soldiers and then leave.

"This is a full-scale attack..."

After killing nearly half of the Ling City defenders, the Nichao Empire army was finally going to take Ling City in one fell swoop.

Sky Fox Saintess Yu Siya's expression was solemn. After briefly observing the situation, she said two sentences, and her entire body was immediately struck on the back by Fire Fox Martial Emperor with a palm, spitting out a mouthful of blood in a sorry state and falling downwards.

"Siya Jie!"

The other Four Women were immediately shocked. They quickly flew towards Yu Siya, wanting to catch her.

But the Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor did not give the Four Women a chance. He moved sideways and blocked their path, sneering, "Don't worry, you will all end up like her in a little while!"

The Four Women gritted their teeth and looked at the Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor, but soon, the other two Earth Rank Martial Emperors also walked behind the Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor, looking at them with cold eyes.

General General Gu Sha and Chen Hongyu were currently directing the remaining soldiers below to defend against the enemy and couldn't spare any attention for the women.

Even if they had time to pay attention, with their Huang Realm Martial Emperor strength, they would be crushed to death in front of these three!

"Five beautiful women, as lovely as flowers, it's a shame to die like this..."

The Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor revealed that disgusting smile again.

"How about you five consider remarrying?"

"Although my status is not as high as the Imperial Son of the Great Xia Empire, at least... you can save your lives."

"Go to hell!" Even the usually gentle Life Saintess Xiao Qingxue couldn't help but curse at this bastard in front of her.

"I don't care anymore, no matter if there's backlash, I must use the Purple Golden Cauldron to kill him!"

Looking at the heavily injured Yu Siya lying on the ground and listening to the Fierce Spirit Martial Emperor's words, the grievances in Sun Yazhu's heart exploded. She could no longer hold back, and was about to take out the Purple Golden Cauldron from her storage ring.

"No, Yazhu!"

Heavenly Talisman Saintess Li Shiqing saw this and quickly rushed forward to pull Sun Yazhu's small hand away, shaking her head urgently.

"An unrefined weapon must never be used lightly, and the Purple Golden Cauldron is... Once you suffer backlash in battle, you will definitely die!"

"Sister Shiqing, but, but if I don't use the Purple Golden Cauldron, we are still no match for those three!"

Sun Yazhu was so anxious she was almost crying.

The soldiers below were getting fewer and fewer, and the power provided by the army formation was also decreasing.

Before, they could barely withstand the attacks of the three, but now the five could only passively defend. Even so, Yu Siya was accidentally ambushed, and the five instantly lost a combat force.

"Absolutely not. If we're going to die, we die together. No matter what, I won't allow you to use the Purple Golden Cauldron!"

Li Shiqing gritted her teeth. She still disagreed with Sun Yazhu using the Divine Artifact rashly.

It wasn't just her; the rest of the women had the same attitude as Li Shiqing.

No matter what, it was forbidden to use it!

"But..."

Sun Yazhu was teary-eyed.

"There are no 'buts'. If we're going to die, we die together!"

Magic Sound Saintess Qi Wan'er held up the jade flute in her hand, ready to play and fight to the death with the Three Martial Emperors in front of her.

"Heh, what a touching display of sisterly affection."
