Luo Li, originally the youngest family head of an ancient clan in the 21st century and the most talented alchemist, died one day and transmigrated into the body of the good-for-nothing eldest young...
Chapter 470 Kill Them
Rong Yan's black and gold armor shone coldly in the dim light. He gently stroked the hilt of the giant sword, and the sword seemed to sense its master's determination and trembled slightly.
Yuan Tang's soft armor fits tightly against her graceful figure, with a long whip wrapped around her wrist, like a sleeping black dragon, ready to wake up and protect its master at any time.
She looked up at the blurry sky in the distance, her eyes flashing with complex light and a hint of worry about the unknown.
Snowflakes gently fell on her eyelashes and melted quietly, just like the gentle yet tenacious strength in her heart.
At this moment, the soldiers below shouted, "Master, the deputy city lord is here!"
Rong Yan and Yuan Tang exchanged a look, both puzzled. "Why is the deputy city lord here? Wasn't it agreed that we would guard the west gate and the main city gate, and they would guard the east and south gates?"
Yuan Tang asked worriedly, "Could something have happened?"
Rong Yan exhaled, "Let's go and take a look."
When Luo Li and the others arrived, Rong Yan had already met with Ming Yang.
This time, Luo Li could hear clearly what they were saying.
Ming Yang told Rong Yan that the city lord had defected with his soldiers, but he had taken the city defense order back.
Rong Yan's eyes were cold, but he still ordered the soldiers stationed at the small gate and the main city gate in an orderly manner, sending half of them to the other two gates.
A soldier asked in confusion, "Why are all four city gates heavily guarded?"
Rong Yan gave a bitter smile. This was because their Blizzard City had been surrounded by an unknown army a few days ago.
They sent messages to the surrounding cities, but the voice stones and teleportation arrays were ineffective, otherwise they would not have put the citizens of the city in danger.
However, his father did pass on the news to Rong Heng, hoping that the boy could bring back reinforcements.
Under Rong Yan's order, Blizzard City had completely deployed troops to guard the four lines of defense late at night.
Ming Yang narrowed his eyes and volunteered, "According to the current intelligence, apart from the main city gate, the east gate should be where the enemy's forces are strongest. I will guard it."
Rong Yan looked at him and asked, "The City Lord has already run away, why did the Deputy City Lord stay?"
Ming Yang was wearing silver armor and his eyes were as sharp as torches. He took a deep breath of the cold air, turned to face Rong Yan, his eyes flashing with unquestionable determination.
"General Rong, although the city lord has fled, as citizens of Blizzard City, how can we abandon the people of the city? The East Gate is where the enemy will attack. I, Mingyang, am willing to sacrifice my flesh and blood to build the last line of defense and will not retreat until my death."
"This is not only for the innocent citizens of the city, but also for the faith and honor in the hearts of our spiritual masters. Facing such a riotous group, we will not surrender, and we will not retreat!"
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved, and the soldiers following behind him responded in unison, their voices shaking the sky. An indomitable fighting spirit instantly filled the sky above the entire city, as if even the raging wind and snow were trembling.
"Okay!" Rong Yan's eyes flashed with a smile. "Deputy City Lord Ming has only been in Blizzard City for over twenty years, and most of that time he's been suppressing rebellions outside the city. We haven't met many times, so we don't know each other very well."
"But what you said today really makes me admire you. You are indeed a strong person at the top of the list."
"Master Rong, you are too kind." Ming Yang bowed.
Rong Yan smiled, raised his hand and clenched his fist in front of him, "It's a dangerous day today, be careful, brother Ming."
Ming Yang also smiled and bumped fists with Rong Yan, "Brother Rong, too."
Luo Li listened to their conversation and understood that they thought this was just a slightly stronger team that wanted to cause riots on the mainland.
Little did they know that this was the beginning of the war between the gods.
Suddenly, an inexplicable shudder came from deep underground in the distance, subtle but clearly perceptible, like an ancient giant beast gently turning over in its sleep.
Luo Li frowned and looked into the distance. She saw that the originally thin clouds in the night sky began to gather rapidly. Thunder was faint and lightning flashed between the clouds, like a series of ominous omens.
The air around seemed to freeze, even the wind stopped breathing, and an extremely oppressive silence enveloped the entire earth.
There was a hint of solemnity in the looks between Ming Yang and Rong Yan. They both seemed to have sensed this unusual omen.
"Brother Rong, be careful." After saying this, Ming Yang immediately turned around and flew towards the east city gate.
Rong Yan and Yuan Tang also flew up to the city wall and looked at the night sky in the distance.
Luo Li and Yue Hanchuan looked at each other. In the end, they did not go down to ask Rong Yan. Instead, they went to Rong's house and found a high attic and stood on it.
The Rong family is not far from the city gate. The attic is high, and standing on top, you can just see the situation at the city gate.
Luo Li lowered her eyes and could just see Rong Yan and Yuan Tang's yard.
The candlelight in the room was dim, Xiaoran should have fallen asleep.
The bright moonlight was covered by dark clouds. In the distance, on the snowy ground, tens of thousands of people in black robes looked like the white snow stained with black blood.
On the city wall, Rong Yan's expression was fierce. He shouted, "All soldiers, follow me out to meet the enemy! No surrender! No retreat!"
The soldiers raised their guns and shouted, their eyes determined, "No surrender! No retreat!
The night was as dark as ink, and the strong wind blew snowflakes, dyeing the battlefield a hazy gray.
Rong Yan rode a black-armored warhorse, holding a long sword in his hand, with a cold gleam flashing like a sharp lightning in the dark night.
He suddenly kicked the horse's belly, and the warhorse neighed, breaking through the snow and rushing straight towards the dark enemy formation.
All around, torches flickered in the wind and snow, illuminating the resolute and unyielding faces of the soldiers. They followed closely behind Rong Yan, their steps steady and heavy, each one expressing a determination to fight to the death.
At the East City Gate, with Ming Yang's order, thousands of arrows were fired, cutting through the night sky, carrying blazing flames and cold murderous intent, accurately shooting towards the enemy formation.
Wherever the rain of arrows passed, the black-robed men fell one after another, their black robes stained red with blood, interweaving with the snow to form a tragic and magnificent picture.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood and indomitable spirit, and the sounds of war drums and shouts of killing intertwined together, resounding through the sky.
The prelude to the war of the gods was completely opened at this moment.
Afterwards, the war that lasted for three whole days passed by Luo Li and Yue Hanchuan like a revolving lantern, until the evening of the third day.
Outside the city gate, the snowfield was covered with the corpses of men in black and soldiers from Blizzard City.
The black and gold armor on Rong Yan's body had long been soaked with blood, the long sword was covered with the enemy's blood, and a hideous wound also appeared on his handsome face.
Beside him, Yuan Tang's condition was not good either.
The two stood side by side, looking at the enemy, most of whom had been killed. Rong Yan smiled and said, "Dreaming of ruling over all beasts? Do you think you are worthy?"
The man in black, who was sitting on a black unicorn, sneered at the words, "You're still stubborn even when death is imminent."
He waved his hand calmly, "Kill them."
