The personal soldiers under his command were originally cavalrymen, and fighting and killing on horseback were what they were best at.
"Wait, why don't we lower the city gate and hold it for a while and see what happens." Mu Hanyan said.
She had long since discovered that Dingbian City's walls were thick and strong, its defenses several times stronger than Hanshan Town's. Even the violent stone monsters couldn't easily break through. However, precisely for this reason, entering the city gate was even more difficult. The monsters had arrived so suddenly that the city guards had no time to lower the gates, and then they were locked in a fierce battle, leaving them with even less chance.
Although she had never experienced fighting on the battlefield, Mu Hanyan always felt that the attack on the city by strange beasts was a bit strange, and fighting outside the city was definitely not the best choice.
"This young lady is right. For tens of thousands of years, no strange beasts have ever invaded Dingbian City from a long distance. Today's situation is too strange. Let's lower the city gates first and see what happens." A mature and steady general of the city guards also said.
"What's so good about such a vulnerable monster? Kill it!" If it was the general who advised him, Wu Ziyue might have hesitated, but when he saw Mu Hanyan speak, he was too lazy to pay attention.
"Sir, what General Zhou said is absolutely true. This strange beast's attack on the city is too bizarre. Why don't we first..." Seeing that Wu Ziyue was determined to go his own way, the other city defense generals all spoke up to dissuade him.
"Shut up. Am I the city lord or are you the city lord? Whoever keeps talking nonsense and delays the opportunity to fight will be killed!" Wu Ziyue shouted sternly.
The generals' expressions changed and they dared not say anything.
Soon, his personal soldiers prepared war horses. At Wu Ziyue's command, hundreds of his personal soldiers mounted their horses and followed him to kill the strange beasts outside the city.
"This idiot, as the lord of a city, actually put himself in danger. If something goes wrong, isn't he afraid of killing all the people in the city?" Yue Xiuming curled his lips and said disdainfully. He seemed to have completely forgotten that his actions in Hanshan Town were actually exactly the same as Wu Ziyue's.
Mu Hanyan glanced at him. It was rare to find someone in the world as thick-skinned as Xiao Ming.
Mounting their war horses, Wu Ziyue's personal soldiers were even more powerful. They charged left and right among those weak monsters, like wolves breaking into a flock of sheep. Every time they swung their swords, a cloud of gorgeous blood would be sprayed out.
"Kill, kill, kill all these strange beasts. Let's see if they dare to get close to Dingbian City again." Wu Ziyue roared wildly.
Seeing that the strange beasts outside the city were as vulnerable as Wu Ziyue said, the city guards finally felt relieved.
The city's civilians also climbed up to the top of the city walls, cheering for Wu Ziyue and his men. After all, the people of Shangyue were known for their tough character, so they were quite courageous.
But Mu Hanyan frowned, as if she was a little too relaxed.
"Roar!" Suddenly, a beast roar shocked the world, and a powerful pressure fell from the sky.
At that moment, the entire world seemed to have come to a standstill.
The mounts of several city guard generals let out long and mournful cries and collapsed to the ground in fear. Some civilians with weaker cultivation levels rolled down directly from the city walls.
Mu Hanyan's expression suddenly changed: the pressure from the divine beast, it was actually the pressure from the divine beast!
Mu Hanyan was no stranger to this kind of pressure. It was so similar to the pressure from Taowu and Qiongqi. She could be sure that this pressure also came from some kind of mythical beast.
On the battlefield, the faces of those black-armored personal soldiers also changed drastically. The red charcoal cloud beasts under their mounts were extremely majestic. All of them were carefully selected from the armies of all places. They could be said to have been tested in battle for a long time. They were much stronger than the mounts of the city guards. But at this moment, they were trembling with fear and dared not move a step, just like a group of lambs to be slaughtered.
They themselves, breathing was difficult under the overwhelming pressure, and even the swords in their hands became as heavy as a thousand pounds. They were filled with unprecedented fear. You have to know that these personal soldiers were all iron-blooded warriors who had crawled out of the dead, the elite of the elite. Even they themselves couldn't believe that they still hid such fear in their hearts.
Another beast roar was heard, and a strange beast appeared in sight.
This strange beast is very similar in size to the Earth Bear, but it is much larger than the Earth Bear. It is three meters tall and seems to be shrouded in a hazy shadow, making it difficult to see its true appearance.
"Chaos!" Mu Hanyan's heart sank.
Chaos, one of the four legendary beasts, earned its name because it bullies the weak and fears the strong, unable to distinguish right from wrong. Despite being a bully, few humans or mythical beasts could possibly stand up to it. Its power was no less than that of the other three beasts, and its reputation for ferocity even surpassed theirs. Mu Hanyan remembered even stories of entire cities being slaughtered by it.
"Chaos...Chaos!" There were cries of fear coming from all around. Obviously, the city guards and civilians also recognized the origin of this ferocious beast.
The four ferocious beasts are notorious. Even though they have disappeared from the Holy Court Continent for hundreds of thousands of years, legends and portraits about them are still widely circulated on the continent, making it difficult to miss them.
"Go, sir, go quickly!" The black-armored guards were no exception, and they shouted to Wu Ziyue with fear on their faces.
Although Wu Ziyue committed many unjust acts in Dingbian City, it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and these black-armored soldiers are loyal to him.
"Oh, go, go." Wu Ziyue was so scared that his face turned pale. He knocked on the mount under him almost numbly, but under the pressure of the chaotic beast, the mount did not move at all.
However, Hun Dun on the opposite side let out a low roar, and with his giant legs like stone pillars, he rushed towards Dingbian City. The first to bear the brunt of the attack were, of course, the black-armored guards who were blocking the city gate.
Seeing that the mount beneath him was so frightened that its body was stiff and no longer had any fighting ability, the black-armored personal guard could only grit his teeth, turn over and dismount, trying hard to overcome the fear in his heart and raise his sword.
"Kill!" With a roar, hundreds of black-armored soldiers gathered into a black steel torrent and rushed towards the chaotic beast opposite.
Previously, it was with this unstoppable and forward-moving attack method that they easily blocked the impact of the Burning Sky Blue Flame Bull and killed it one by one.
Unfortunately, this time they were not facing the Burning Sky Blue Flame Bull, but one of the four legendary ferocious beasts - Chaos.
"Boom!" A muffled sound rang out, and the ground shook. It was like steel hitting rock, or like a torrent crashing into the ocean waves.
A black shadow flew like pebbles and rolled like waves.
With just one charge, dozens of black-armored soldiers flew into the sky.
The black armor, which had such strong defense that even the Burning Sky Blue Flame Bull could not break it, became vulnerable this time and was completely shattered into pieces. Those black-armored soldiers were either killed on the spot or spitting out mouthfuls of blood, obviously suffering serious injuries from broken internal organs.
