Everyone’s gaze fell on Ren Qi. Ten minutes had passed, but there were still a large number of aerial troops surrounding the invading lords.
The invading lords below continued to launch attacks, but there were no signs of improvement.
At this moment, Ren Qi revealed a smile. “Our reinforcements are here!”
Reinforcements? Everyone, including Zhao Yuheng, was stunned for a moment. Then, they heard a battle cry coming from not too far away.
Looking closely, they saw a large number of aerial soldiers rushing toward them from behind.
Something was wrong! It wasn’t just behind them. There were a large number of aerial soldiers surrounding them from all directions.
The surrounding new lords were so excited that they laid on the walls of the aerial fortress. When they looked down, they saw smoke and dust rising from below.
A large number of troops were gathering from all directions, as if they wanted to counter-surround the invading forces of the Lord Alliance.
All the new lords were stunned. They had never thought that such a situation would occur.
“Reinforcements! There really are reinforcements! So Ren Qi has been telling us to wait for reinforcements!”
They had never expected that reinforcements would arrive.
After all, this was the vicinity of the invading lord alliance. It was very far from where the new lords were gathered, and even further from the soaring dragon new Lord’s headquarters.
Hence, no one had expected that reinforcements would arrive at the start, because this was simply impossible.
However, now that reinforcements had appeared, everyone’s gaze fell on Ren Qi.
The fact that so many reinforcements had arrived could only mean one thing. Ren Qi had expected such a situation, which was why he had prepared such a backup plan in advance.
When they thought of this, all the new lords’gazes fell on Ren Qi, and they became even more impressed.
Big Boss Ren Qi was truly a god!
Looking at the new lords and troops rapidly surrounding the invading lords, a smile appeared on Ren Qi’s face.
These new lords and troops were all new lords of the Soaring Dragon Alliance led by Song Qingge.
After Ren Qi and the others went deep into the hinterland and captured the city where the resources were stored, Ren Qi informed Song Qingge and asked him to lead his men to come and rescue them.
Previously, when Ren Qi and the others were about to be surrounded, Song Qingge and the others were able to come and rescue them.
However, Ren Qi sent a message to Song Qingge, telling them not to rush over. Instead, they took a detour and came from all directions to counter-surround the invading lord alliance.
Song Qingge did not disappoint Ren Qi’s expectations. Within ten minutes, they had counter-surrounded the invading lord alliance. However, they were only able to charge over.
Li Fuqing’s expression turned extremely ugly when he heard the earth-shattering battle cries and saw the new lords and soldiers charging over.
His gaze landed on the new lords and soldiers in front of him, and a hint of shock appeared in his eyes.
“How did these new lords and soldiers appear here?!”
Looking at the furious Li Fuqing, the surrounding trusted aides were also dumbfounded.
They were completely clueless as to how such a situation could have happened.
“Trash! Where are the Scouts? How did they observe the situation around them? They were all surrounded but weren’t able to notice it?”
Li Fuqing looked at the surrounding trusted aides and roared angrily.
The surrounding trusted aides looked at each other, their eyes revealing a look of grievance.
Aren’t you the one who ordered all the aerial units to attack the aerial fortress in the Sky? Why are you blaming us for the accident now?
“Boss, it’s not the time to talk about this. What should we do now? Should we retreat first? If we fight head-on, the losses will be huge!”
“Yeah, let’s retreat first. The enemy’s reinforcements are here. If we continue to attack, the losses of our units will reach an unbearable level.”
“Retreat! Boss, we have to make a decision!”
The few trusted aides in the surroundings looked at Li Fuqing and spoke one after another. All of them were trying to persuade Li Fuqing to leave this place quickly.
Hearing the words of his trusted aides, Li Fuqing’s gaze instantly turned gloomy.
He naturally knew that their current situation was already over. If they continued to stay and attack, the losses of their troops would probably reach an extremely high level.
However, should they escape just like that? This was too unacceptable to him.
However, it seemed that there was nothing he could do even if he could not accept it!
After taking a closer look, he realized that the number of troops surrounding them was not considered many.
Moreover, the other party had spread out and surrounded them. The strength of their troops would also suffer a great loss. If they chose to stay and attack, they would definitely be able to destroy these new lords and troops.
However, if that was the case, the losses of their troops would reach an extremely high level. This was especially so when the strength of their troops had been greatly reduced due to the death plague.
Hence, Li Fuqing quickly made a decision.
“Withdraw! We will immediately withdraw!”
Li Fuqing was not an impulsive person. To him, being impulsive was meaningless. In the current situation, the only way was to withdraw!
Otherwise, the losses of the troops would reach an unimaginable level.
Of course, not being able to leave behind the flying fortress this time was already a huge loss for Li Fuqing.
Hearing Li Fuqing’s words, the surrounding trusted aides did not hesitate and immediately gave the order for the surrounding troops to quickly follow them and retreat.
The invading suzerain alliance began to move. All the troops quickly retreated to the rear.
Above the flying fortress, everyone watched as the invading suzerains and troops quickly retreated. Their faces were filled with smiles.
“Haha! They escaped! Those guys escaped! We succeeded!”
“As expected, Big Boss Ren Qi has a backup plan. He actually left a backup plan here.”
“I’ve already said it. Don’t be anxious, don’t be anxious. Big Boss Ren Qi will definitely have a plan!”
“That’s great! We can completely retreat! That’s Great!”
The surrounding newborn lords all had smiles on their faces, and they were extremely excited.
A smile also appeared on Zhao Yuheng’s face. He hadn’t thought that Ren Qi would actually leave such a backup plan.
Zhao Yuheng’s eyes flickered slightly as he watched the large group of invading lords quickly retreat.
“Ren Qi, should we chase after the escaping invading lords and troops below?”
Zhao Yuheng’s courage had actually increased quite a bit after the other party retreated.
The surrounding new lords were stunned when they heard Zhao Yuheng’s words. They did not expect Zhao Yuheng to say such words just after they were out of danger.
Hearing Zhao Yuheng’s words, Ren Qi’s gaze flickered slightly, following which, he said, “You can pursue them, but don’t pursue them with all your might. Just stay far behind them. Don’t let the invading suzerain alliance get desperate.”
Ren Qi clearly understood that the invading suzerain alliance’s main force had a chance to counterattack. However, if they did so, it would result in a huge loss of their troops, therefore, the leader of the invading lord alliance would not do that.
Therefore, if they wanted to pursue them, they definitely could not pursue them too closely. Otherwise, if the other side was desperate, it would still be dangerous.
Hearing Ren Qi’s words, the surrounding new lords all nodded. This was naturally the best choice.
Under the premise of ensuring their own safety, pursuing them was the best choice.
Soon, the scene changed, the air fortress began to chase the invasion of the alliance up below.
Attack and defense changed!
