You were driven out of the capital at the start, and you ask me why I rebelled?

Chapter 117: Defensive Formation



Chapter 117: Defensive Formation

"Marshal, the Great Qin Dynasty is a human dynasty bordering the Blood Barbarian Dynasty..."

"However, although they are all human dynasties, their relationship is not very good; sometimes it's even worse than that of our demon race..."

At this moment, a tribal chief who knew about the Qin Dynasty spoke up to explain.

This also gave those present a general understanding of the Qin Dynasty.

"But why are they in Demon Suppression City? And given the strength of the Great Qin Dynasty, how has the Blood Barbarian Dynasty managed to hold out until now?"

Morricone frowned, his face full of confusion.

Looking at the 100,000-strong army below, Morricone immediately felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn't imagine how the Blood Barbarian Dynasty had managed to survive until now without being destroyed, despite the strength of the Great Qin Dynasty.

"General of Great Qin, this is a matter between my Iron Wolf Dynasty and the Blood Barbarian Dynasty. According to our understanding, Great Qin's relationship with the Blood Barbarian Dynasty doesn't seem to be very good..."

"How about we join forces? We can destroy the Blood Barbarian Dynasty together, and all its lands will belong to Great Qin. We only want the Blood Barbarian people..."

"Merricola shouted at Huo Qubing."

Upon hearing his words, Murong Haoxuan's expression changed, and he quickly looked at Huo Qubing, anxiously saying, "General Huo, please don't agree to him!"

"Humans and demons are mortal enemies. Moreover, although the Great Qin and the Blood Barbarian Dynasty are at odds, ordinary people are innocent. If the demons were to abduct them, they would surely face certain death..."

The terms offered by Morricone were too tempting, and he was unsure whether Huo Qubing would agree to them.

"General Murong, is this the kind of person you see me as?"

Huo Qubing glanced at Murong Haoxuan and said in a deep voice.

Murong Haoxuan also realized his slip of the tongue; he had indeed spoken without thinking.

With the strength of the Great Qin, there was absolutely no need for them to cooperate with the demon race; they could easily take down the Blood Barbarian Dynasty.

A look of shame crossed his face as he said, "It was my recklessness..."

Huo Qubing stopped looking at him and instead turned his gaze to the city wall of Zhenyao City.

"Although the relationship between my Great Qin and the Blood Barbarian Dynasty is not very good, that is a matter for my human race, and it is none of your demon race's business..."

"I will give you ten breaths. Whether you leave Demon Suppression City on your own or wait to die inside is up to you."

Huo Qubing's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.

Hearing Huo Qubing's words, Murong Haoxuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he trusted Huo Qubing, he couldn't guarantee that the other party wouldn't agree to the demon race's conditions.

After all, this matter also benefits the Qin Dynasty.

But now it seems that Huo Qubing did not disappoint him.

However, unlike Murong Haoxuan's joy, the group of demons on the city wall felt the exact opposite.

Morik's face was ashen. Although the Blood Barbarian Dynasty had taken the initiative to withdraw from Demon Suppression City, they had not suffered any losses in taking over Demon Suppression City.

But once meat is in your mouth, it's absolutely impossible to make them spit it out.

"Since that's the case, then there's no need for further words. My demon race has millions of troops inside the city, while you only have one hundred thousand. I, the commander, do not believe you can breach the Demon-Suppressing City..."

Morricone steeled his resolve and decided to fight to the bitter end.

Although the individual strength of Qin soldiers was very strong, their numbers were a major weakness.

Even if they are powerful, so what? We have millions of troops on our side. We can wear them down by sheer numbers.

Moreover, if we give up the Demon-Suppressing City, it will be difficult to come back and fight our way back.

"Hmph! Stubborn to the end! Then none of you will leave here alive..."

Huo Qubing snorted coldly.

"Siege!"

"Let's go back!" At this command, the elite Imperial Guards, who were already prepared, drew their bows and nocked their arrows.

These are not ordinary bows and arrows, but spiritual weapons, and of a high grade, enough to kill Golden Core cultivators. They were used to deal with a group of demons who were only at the Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment stages.

It's a complete waste of talent.

"Activate the city's protective formation!"

"Merricott gave the order."

Faced with such a powerful army, he dared not be negligent in the slightest.

Fortunately, the Blood Barbarian Dynasty did not destroy the city's protective formation when they withdrew, which is now a boon for them.

Buzz~~

A protective array shielded the entire Demon-Suppressing City.

This is the protective array of the Demon Suppression City, which was created by the Blood Barbarian Dynasty using countless precious materials and years of painstaking effort.

It is strong enough to withstand the attack of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator.

It was precisely because of this that the Blood Barbarian Dynasty was able to withstand the Iron Wolf Dynasty's repeated attacks.

They looked at the formation that had once been used to defend against them, now used to protect them.

Muricola felt that life was truly unpredictable!

"This is a high-level Xuan-rank formation; the Qin Dynasty absolutely cannot break through it..."

"Haha, that's right. So what if their soldiers are strong? We'll still keep them out..."

"There's absolutely no way you'd expect us to spit out what we've already eaten!"

Upon seeing that the formation had been activated, the tribal leaders of the Iron Wolf Dynasty all relaxed.

As the Blood Barbarian Dynasty's adversaries, they were naturally well aware of the power of this formation.

It is sufficient to defend against attacks from peak Nascent Soul cultivators.

Unless a Void Refinement expert intervenes, they will absolutely be unable to break through it.

But does the Great Qin have any experts at the Void Refinement stage?

If they did exist, they wouldn't have let the Blood Barbarian Dynasty roam around for so long; they would have wiped it out long ago.

Therefore, after the formation was activated, the demons relaxed and began to mock the Qin Dynasty.

The moment the great formation appeared, a hint of disdain flashed in Huo Qubing's eyes.

Did they think they could stop the Qin's attack with just a formation?

How naive.

Huo Qubing's body slowly rose into the air, and the long spear in his hand exuded a sharp aura.

He slowly raised his spear, assuming a posture of gathering power.

"What is he going to do?"

"He wouldn't be thinking of breaking through the defensive formation by himself, would he?"

"Who does he think he is, a Void Refinement expert?"

The people on the city wall could clearly see Huo Qubing's movements.

Feeling insulted, they all started to mock them.
