It was pressure by pure numbers. Several thousand solarians, even if they were low level, would easily overpower and leave no chance for the fourteen high level solarians.
Quite a few experts of the Myriad Solar Sects had come. There were over twenty of them on the level of sect masters of second-rate sects, and ten were present there. There were also a few experts from first-rate sects. There was no contest at all between the two sides.
Pained screams filled the battlefield. Their lifebound beasts were so large that as soon as they showed themselves, they would suffer concentrated fire from thousands of other lifebound beasts and immediately turn into piles of mush.
In comparison, the Snowsun Quadspecters were lucky. At least they were still alive.
“Lady Wushuang, save me!”
“Ahh—”
Pain. Despair. Regret.
However, that wasn’t enough to quell the fury of the alliance. No matter how cunning the Northdipper Swordsage was, the main reason they had joined was purely to protect the Myriad Solar Sect’s dignity and territory. They had already felt their comrades’ pain when the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect was attacked. Regretfully, there had been no one to lead them then. But forty thousand of the Empyrean Sword Sect perishing in Myriad Solar Sect territory had pushed them over their boiling point!
Only a third of the sects in the Myriad Solar Sects had mobilized. It meant they were the bravest of the brave and weren’t fighting for the sake of benefits. After all, there weren’t enough divine herbs from the Azurecloud Divine Tree to go around for an army of this size.
“Kill!” In truth, the battle was nearly over. Judging by the number of corpses, it would be a minor miracle if ten thousand of them managed to survive. This was a true wipeout of the army!
However, Li Wushuang was still the one the Myriad Solar Sects hated the most. Whether they dared to kill her would be up to the Northdipper Swordsage. But her henchmen had to die! Her status was too high, so her fourteen remaining henchmen could only act as scapegoats for the anger of the Myriad Solar Sects.
“Kill them all!”
“Kill!”
Just two hours ago, these bodyguards had been living a happy life. Now, they were full of despair.
Li Wushuang saw everything as it occurred. Her eyes were bloodshot and her face was distorted. Over two hundred thousand elites had died, and her cronies were about to die. Even she herself was surrounded by the Northdipper Swordsage and Wind Swordlord. Disaster wasn’t a strong enough word to describe it. She could only brandish her Skymoon Holyfiend and meet the battle with her eight ghostface moongoddesses.
One of her celestial orderian cronies crawled to her, his body covered in blood. He wanted to say something, but his pursuers quickly hacked off his head with a sword! His head rolled to her feet, still filled with pain and disbelief.
“Northdipper, you’ll die for this!” Li Wushuang’s hand couldn’t stop shaking.
“No need to be enthusiastic, you’re next.” The Northdipper Swordsage appeared in front of her, countless streaks of sword ki whistling around him.
Instead of getting angry. Li Wushuang laughed, “Don’t brag. Just come and try me.”
“Yes, let’s give this a try.” The Northdipper Swordsage shot forward.
……
In the Myriadfold Skycloud Formation of the Supracloud Sanctuary, the battle was still raging. Just Yang Ce alone was enough to go against the Tumulus Pill God, and he had helpers distracting him now as well.
“Look behind you, Tumulus Pill God.”
The Tumulus Pill God, his golden skin covered in blood, turned around. He saw that the wargodeans he had brought were all in chaos and being devoured by the mist. Even he himself was like an arrow at the end of his flight. His ten thousand wargodeans had either been slain or captured, and the freed-up Supracloud Sanctuary cultivators all came to join the encirclement around the Tumulus Pill God.
In all directions, there were people!
His lifebound beasts were all heavily injured as well.
Let alone escape, even survival would be unlikely. His back was against the wall. The Tumulus Pill God sucked in a cold breath. He seemed to have aged a lot in this instant.
Long Wanying looked at him and calmly said, “It isn’t that bad here. Outside, your hundred thousand wargodeans have nearly been wiped out as well. Now there aren’t many wargodeans left alive on this continent.”
The Tumulus Pill God’s eyes were bloodshot. He truly wanted to go out and see if Long Wanying was telling the truth. However, neither transmission stones nor himself could exit.
“So, you all have won. Congratulations, congratulations.… But don’t celebrate too early. After this, His Solar Majesty, the Warlord, and the Deluge Emperor will be furious. This entire continent will be wiped out!” The Tumulus Pill God stared at Long Wanying’s group with hatred.
The nine-headed war griffon beside him gave a lion’s roar with its eagle heads, causing the surrounding clouds to vibrate.
“They’ll be angry? Will they send another few million troops? Is it worth it for some herbs and saplings? If this continues escalating and becomes an all-out war between the Myriad Solar Sects and celestial orderians, the casualties will be in the billions. The first to go will be the cannon fodder.”
Long Wanying continued, “Tumulus Pill God, we all live on the same world. No one wants to wipe anyone out. All of the clans have propagated and had too many descendants after the last million years.”
“Why are you saying this? You want to let us go?” the Tumulus Pill God sneered.
“No.” Long Wanying shook her head. “I only know that the wargodeans are different from the Blueblood Starocean. You all just took some benefits from the celestial orderians to strengthen yourselves and rise up in the rankings. It doesn’t mean you will shed an unlimited amount of blood for them. And today, you all were used by a self-obsessed, stubborn, and cold-blooded woman. Hundreds of thousands of your brethren died for nothing. You all could’ve walked away.”
The words stabbed at the Tumulus Pill God’s heart. He had seen everything clearly from the start; the miserable ending of his wargodeans had been completely Li Wushuang’s fault. When he had come here, all he’d wanted were some herbs. But now, so many of his elites had been lost!
