"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

"

nLu Li was not alone. Many warriors in the city flew up and more were panicking.

nThe Teleportation Formation being destroyed meant that the powerful warriors sent away could not be teleported back. With two Human Sovereign Realm warriors outside the city, how long could the city protection shield hold out?

nThe Drifting Cloud City, the Flint Cloud City and the Stormy Cloud City were the vertices of a triangle. They weren't far away from each other. But this was on relative terms at the Clouds Plains. There were indeed some distances between the three cities. Even Human Sovereign Realm warriors would have to spend an hour to fly back at the top of their speeds.

nThere were no Human Sovereign Realm warriors in the Drifting Cloud City but there were two outside. By the time the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors of the Drifting Cloud Hall came back, the Drifting Cloud City would have become a city of the dead. Once the million warriors outside broke into the city, all the civilians in would become livestock at the mercy of slaughters.

n

"Bang, bang, bang~

"

nFrom the plaza came some noises. The mole that smashed the Teleportation Formation was killed right away. Even so, the city was in a mess. Many civilians felt immense terror. They stared in despair at the densely crowded warriors outside and the two Human Sovereign Realm warriors.

nLu Li rushed toward the Drifting Cloud Hall. Some warriors did notice him but they also saw the scouts token in his hand so they didn't stop him. No one else paid attention to an insignificant warrior of the Eternal Realm.

nLu Li didn't fly his way over. This was a smart decision. Otherwise, he would have been stopped.

nHe attempted to inspect the Drifting Cloud Hall with psychic power. When he had shortened the distance by half, he could finally see the Drifting Cloud Hall and Lu Ling at the back area.

nLu Ling was standing outside of the back area with dozens of powerful warriors behind her, all at the Noble Lord Realm. Strange thing about them was that they were not terrified. Instead, they all gazed into the sky calmly.

n

"Boom, boom, boom~

"

nTwo Human Sovereign Realm warriors and millions of warriors outside began their attacks at the light blue shield. Loud noises were made. The shield was shaking, its color fading, a sure sign that the energy was being used up.

n

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

"

nMany warriors flew out from their yards and gathered at the plaza. Some Noble Lord Realm warriors were yelling orders to deploy forces and were calling for more warriors to gather together.

nObserving from the distance, Lu Li saw that more than one million warriors were gathered. There must be more than two million warriors in total including the ones standing at the city gate. More were still coming from all directions.

nLu Li heard the Noble Lord Realm warriors' roars. If Lu Li had been Meng Ji, he should have gone toward the plaza. But Lu Li was not someone that would listen to orders. He only wanted to go to Lu Ling and protect her.

nFinally, he made his way to the Drifting Cloud Hall. But he was stopped by the guards. Many more were watching him with psychic power and ready to execute him if he dared to barge in.

n

"I want to meet the Saintess. I have important information!

"

nLu Li waved the jade talisman in his hand. But the guards outside the main hall acted as if they hadn't seen it. A team leader yelled in anger,

"F*ck off and go to the plaza!

"

n

"Whoosh!

"

nA man suddenly appeared behind Lu Li, a man covered in black armor. He showed a token and said,

"Saintess says he is allowed in.

"

n

"Yes, my lord!

"

nThe black-armored warrior must enjoy a high status. The guards didn't dare to stop Lu Li anymore. He rushed in directly toward the back areas. He saw Lu Ling from the distance and was about to say something when Lu Ling waved her hand and shushed him.

n

"Stand over there!

"

nLu Ling said indifferently and she paid no more attention to Lu Li. She kept looking up at the sky calmly as if she was waiting for the shield to be cracked.

n

"Saintess!

"

nThere were many warriors standing around Lu Ling and more scouts were in hiding. Lu Li didn't have the courage to call her sister in public. He had to find another way and said,

"The situation is critical. When the shield breaks, run with me, okay?

"

nMany Noble Lord Realm patriarchs were looking at Lu Li like he was an idiot. He was only at the initial stage of the Eternal Realm and he wanted to take Lu Ling, who was at the middle stage of the Noble Lord Realm away with him? Was he insane? Also, with so many Noble Lord Realm warriors here, did Lu Ling need an Eternal Realm warrior to protect her?

nLu Ling didn't even look at Lu Li when she said coldly,

"Stay there and don't talk. This is an order!

"

nLu Li looked at her and refrained from taking more actions. There were too many powerful warriors nearby, at least 30, 10 of whom were at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm. More scouts were lurking around. If he took Lu Ling away by force, a fight might break out.

n

"Boom, boom, boom!

"

nThe shield was under constant attack. It had become half transparent and could be cracked at any moment now. Warriors in the city were gathered. There were more than three million of them, almost the same number as the army outside.

nThe Drifting Cloud City was where the headquarter of the Drifting Cloud Hall was. It was not surprising that there were massive forces deployed here. But the only Human Sovereign Realm warrior was lured away along with more than half of the Noble Lord Realm warriors. Therefore, the even number wouldn't offer the Drifting Cloud City any help.

nThe difference in warriors' realm mattered. When a Human Sovereign Realm warrior came with 10,000 regular warriors, they could easily defeat an army of one million. Nobody could stand against the might of a Human Sovereign Realm warrior. What was more, Human Sovereign Realm could pick his fight with his enemies' commander. Once the commander and senior leaders of an army were slayed, moral ratings would drop. The army would collapse right away.

nLu Li was not a skilled commander. Nevertheless, he was the emperor of the Northern Desert. He had some experience.

nWhat confused him was—

nThe situation couldn't be clearer. How could Lu Ling and the Noble Lord Realm warriors stay so composed at times of this? There might be someone faking it. But it was impossible for dozens to fake it so well that Lu Li couldn't see them through.

n

"About time, Patriarch He!

"

nAfter the time for 10 breaths, Lu Ling said. She raised her hand. A patriarch at the peak of the Noble Lord Realm standing behind her went to the plaza.

nThe patriarch yelled,

"Spread out. Get ready!

"

nThis Patriarch He must be prestigious. At his order, the two million warriors at the plaza split into four square arrays and took their places at the four sides of the plaza, ready to take actions.

n

"Boom!

"

nNot long afterwards, the shield split up like a bubble. Two mighty Human Sovereign Realm warriors were waving their weapons as they roared,

"Charge!

"

nTwo Human Sovereign Realm warriors with more than 100 warriors at the Noble Lord Realm and the Eternal Realm took the lead and dashed toward the plaza. The sharpest weapon of all, Human Sovereign Realm warriors, must be applied where it is most suitable.

nGiven that two million warriors were gathered up at the plaza, ready to take action, the two Human Sovereign Realm warrior couldn't have made a wiser decision than to attack here.

nAs soon as the two million warriors were defeated, then all the civilians in the Drifting Cloud City would become vulnerable and would fall prey to willful slaughter.

n

"Charge—

"

nFrom all sides of the Drifting Cloud City, there rang earth-shaking roars. The more than three million warriors swarmed toward the Drifting Cloud City.

nCold glares bounced off from the weapons under the moonlight. It was like a sudden appearance of soldiers from hell, here to harvest all the lives in the city.
