Chapter 395 - Hejian City (27th Update)

Chapter 395: Chapter 394: Hejian City (27th Update)In a room outside.

Chu Jiangliu excitedly said, "It’s true. The Prince Consort struck down Tuoba Feng with a sword from a distance. That feat alone was an incredible demonstration of Shenwu Kingdom’s might."

"Wow, the Prince Consort is really amazing."

"That’s too amazing, able to strike Tuoba Feng through the Moon God Legion."

"Prince Chu, aren’t you boasting? Is the Prince Consort really that powerful?"

"Li Daohen, is Lin Bai really that powerful?"

During the break in his healing, Chu Jiangliu told them some of the things that had been happening in the southern territory of Shenwu Kingdom.

Especially when he spoke of Lin Bai, Chu Jiangliu was spitting with excitement.

Under Jia Yueguan, Lin Bai fought five master hands of Shengyue Sect, and with a sword from a distance, struck Tuoba Feng amongst numerous soldiers.

That was truly unrivalled in the world.

Li Daohen faintly nodded and said, "If Prince Chu said it’s anyone else, even if it’s Duan Canghai, I don’t think he can do it. But if it’s Lin Bai, I believe him... because the surprises and miracles he’s given me are too many."

Chu Jiangliu laughed and said, "See? Why would I lie? The Prince Consort’s power is something you guys can hardly imagine."

"With the Prince Consort, it seems like we could still have means to win after all."

"It’s a pity, a heroic Shenwu Kingdom only produced one Lin Bai. If we had two more like him, would Shenwu Kingdom have been bullied by Dayue Kingdom?"

"Heh, the warriors of Canghai Yuntai Palace, all are a bunch of cowards claiming to be geniuses."

A group of warriors began to ridicule together.

At this moment, Lin Bai briskly walked out.

Both Chu Jiangliu and Li Daohen stood up and looked at Lin Bai, whose face was pale.

Chu Jiangliu asked, "Lin Bai, weren’t you healing? Why have you come out? Have your injuries healed?"

"No." Lin Bai shook his head.

"But we no longer have much time to heal. I destroyed twenty-three of the City-Destroying Cannons, but there are still two left. If Tuoba Feng has already taken them to Jia Yueguan."

"Chu Jiangliu, we have no more time."

Lin Bai said coldly.

With Lin Bai’s words, the smile on Chu Jiangliu’s face stiffened and he fell silent.

Both Lin Bai and Chu Jiangliu knew too well what kind of scene it would be once the City-Destroying Cannons arrived at Jia Yueguan.

Seeing the silence of Chu Jiangliu,

Lin Bai asked Li Daohen, "Senior Brother Li, your cultivation has further refined since we last met."

Li Daohen shook his head and said, "Lin Bai, you don’t have to call me senior brother. I am just a warrior wielding a sword and killing people."

Looking closely, Li Daohen had actually advanced his cultivation to the Heaven Martial Realm Fourth Layer, which was terrifying.

Lin Bai’s breakthrough to the Heaven Martial Realm Sixth Layer was entirely due to the more than one hundred Heavenly Spirit Pills he obtained in the East Sea and the Demon Blood from the giant beast in the sea.

But Li Daohen, without any cultivation resources, had cultivated to the Heaven Martial Realm Fourth Layer on his own. This man was undoubtedly a genius.

"What are you planning next?" Lin Bai asked.

"Now that the southern territory has turned into a living hell, I plan to go to Jia Yueguan with the warriors of the City Alliance. Since the southern territory has already been destroyed, we can’t let Dayue Kingdom destroy the Imperial City!" said Li Daohen calmly.

"We must hold Jia Yueguan."

Li Daohen said with determination

Li Daohen, Lin Bai, and Chu Jiangliu all understood that once Jia Yueguan was breached, the army of the Dayue Kingdom would directly head to the Imperial City. By then, the Royal Family would fall, and the Shenwu Kingdom would be thoroughly purged by Dayue Kingdom to consolidate their reign.

Lin Bai said, "So Chu Jiangliu, you should go with Li Daohen and take the warriors of the City Alliance to Jia Yueguan."

Upon hearing this, Chu Jiangliu was taken aback and asked, "Prince Consort, aren’t you coming back with us?"

Lin Bai said, "We must find a way to end the turmoil in the southern region. Rest assured, within ten days, I will definitely force Dayue Kingdom to retreat!"

Li Daohen asked, "Lin Bai, how do you intend to force the powerful Dayue Kingdom’s army to retreat in just ten days?"

Lin Bai shook his head and replied, "I have no idea at present, but it seems we must take a gamble. If I win this wager, we shall win this war."

Chu Jiangliu observed Lin Bai. From the tone of his words, he could sense the chill in Lin Bai’s speech.

Chu Jiangliu surmised that Lin Bai’s next move was most likely fraught with immense danger.

"Would you like me to accompany you?" Chu Jiangliu asked, concerned.

"No need, you should go to Jia Yueguan, and assist the First Princess," Lin Bai responded indifferently.

Chu Jiangliu nodded.

Li Daohen did not continue to probe further.

Half an hour later, over three hundred thousand warriors of the City Alliance and Chu Jiangliu set off for Jia Yueguan.

On the other side, a warrior wrapped in a grey cloak silently moved away from Nanning Pass.

Once he left Nanning Pass and stood amid the vast expanse of yellow sand up ahead, Lin Bai suddenly turned his head to gaze back at Nanning Pass. His eyes bore a murderously defiant look, and in an unyielding and indifferent voice, he said:

"Within ten days, the Dayue Kingdom will undoubtedly retreat!"

Hejian City was a small outpost located between Shenwu Kingdom and the Dayue Kingdom.

At this moment, Hejian City had become a supply depot for Dayue Kingdom’s southern campaign.

Dayue Kingdom’s precious supplies were stockpiled in Hejian City, to be transported to the frontlines in stages.

These crucial supplies were mainly healing pills. Given the chaos at the frontlines, the number of healing pills required could be described as vast.

The garrison at Hejian City wasn’t too big, the Dayue Kingdom only had approximately one hundred thousand soldiers stationed there, led by the current Taifu, who also happened to be Tuoba Feng’s mentor.

High in the sky, Lin Bai stood among the clouds and looked down on the military arrangement within Hejian City.

Despite being a minor stronghold, the number of soldiers in Hejian City was considerable, approximately over one million.

Especially in the City Lord Mansion, there were three guard units that patrolled day and night, not even letting a fly pass through.

Lin Bai’s gaze was icy cold as it fell on the City Lord Mansion.

Hejian City, City Lord Mansion.

A man dressed in a black moon armor hurriedly walked into the government office and met with an austere looking old man dressed in a purple robe.

"Taifu, the Moon Shooting Bow and Shockwave Arrows that the Prince requested are ready. When would they be sent to the frontlines?" the soldier clad in black armor inquired respectfully.

Taifu expressed his surprise, "Oh? Has the royal artifact refiner team already completed the creation of the Moon Shooting Bow?" S~eaʀᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The man in black armor replied, "Yes, they have finished it after working day and night for half a month, following His Highness’s orders."

Taifu said, "I did not expect these old bones to be so competent. They really did manage to create the Moon Shooting Bow. Bring it to me for inspection."

As the conversation continued, the man in black armor fetched a silver, glimmering, precious bow from his storage bag. The bow emanated a terrifying power.

The body of the Moon Shooting Bow, a sixth-grade spirit tool, was refined using a unique Divine Iron found only in the Dayue Kingdom, and the bowstrings were polished from the tendons of several Divine Elixir Realm demon beasts.

For procuring these materials, the Dayue Kingdom had to spend nearly a hundred million spiritual stones in the Treasure Pavilion. Only then was the Moon Shooting Bow completed.

Taifu said joyously, "Good, with the Moon Shooting Bow, His Highness would possess two sixth-grade spirit tools. Conquering Shenwu Kingdom should be straightforward."

"How many Shockwave Arrows have been shipped?"

The man in black armor replied, "Since the royal artifact refiner team has been working around the clock on the Moon Shooting Bow for the past half month, they have only managed to manufacture slightly over a thousand Shockwave Arrows."

Taifu frowned upon hearing this, "Only over a thousand? That’s too few. However, it should be able to alleviate His Highness’s immediate concerns."

"You must immediately mobilize fifty thousand elite soldiers, and transport the Moon Shooting Bow, Shockwave Arrows, the prepared healing pills, and all other military supplies to Jia Yueguan."

"Additionally, send a messenger to the imperial capital. The royal artifact refiner team and the royal pill refiner team should devote all of their resources towards manufacturing Shockwave Arrows and healing pills. There can be no errors."

"Yes!" The man in black armor affirmed.
