Da! Da! Da!
After a burst of hurried footsteps, a fat middle-aged man in official uniform quickly ran into the military tent. He even tripped because he ran too fast!
But the middle-aged man didn't care about this at all. He looked at Ding Xiu anxiously and said:
"Marshal Ding is finished, he is dead..."
"How dare you, Zhang Kai, curse the marshal to death, are you really that bold?"
A general didn't wait for the middle-aged man to finish speaking. He slammed the table, stood up and shouted, and rushed towards the middle-aged man with a bloody look.
Not only him, but other generals also had angry faces. Zhang Kai was shouting and yelling in the military tent, not only disturbing the morale of the army, but now he even dared to curse the marshal to death. He really was courting his own life!
"Ah... I didn't curse the Marshal, I didn't, it was just a slip of the tongue..." The fat middle-aged man was pressed down by the rolling blood and sat directly on the ground, and explained hurriedly.
"Okay, City Lord Zhang, why are you so flustered? What on earth happened!" Ding Xiu waved his hand, and all the pressure on Zhang Kai disappeared.
call!
Zhang Kai breathed a sigh of relief. He was the mayor of the deserted city. Just now he received a piece of news that made him despair. He did not dare to hesitate and quickly said to Ding Xiu:
"Marshal Ding, the Demon Cult has already sent troops to attack our Heavenly Fire Holy Court. I'm afraid they will reach our Border City in three hours at most!"
What?
Bang!
Many generals were so frightened that they stood up, and each of them showed a hint of shock and fear on his face.
"Zhang Kai, you must be responsible for your words. If you dare to lie about such an important matter, you will be sentenced to death even if you are the lord of this deserted city!" a general asked angrily.
"General Sun, how dare I lie? The entire Border City is in chaos right now, and everyone in the city is desperately trying to escape from the city!"
Zhang Kai said with a worried look on his face, his face full of fear, if it weren't for his position, he would probably have run away.
"Report..."
There was another sound of hurried footsteps outside, and a messenger quickly ran into the military tent, knelt on one knee and said to Ding Xiu:
"Report to the Marshal, urgent news has come from the front. At midnight today, the Demon Cult army, led by the Grand Steward Liansheng, is heading towards our Heavenly Fire Holy Court!"
"The Demon Cult has dispatched four hall masters, eight Dharma protectors, twelve demon kings, and tens of millions of demon soldiers. It is expected to arrive at Border City in another hour!"
Bang!
After listening to the report from the messenger, Ding Xiu, who was sitting in the seat of honor, slammed the table hard, with a flash of anger and disbelief in his eyes.
His face instantly turned red, and it seemed as if invisible slaps were hitting him one after another. He had just finished saying that the Demon Cult was going to be destroyed, and the Demon Cult attacked!
It's a slap in the face!
In fact, as one of the high-ranking officials of the Holy Skyfire Court, Ding Xiu knew some inside information, such as the alliance with the Dagan Empire and the upcoming killing of the demon Zhou.
Can……
He never expected that the Demon Cult would attack before his Majesty made a move. Could it be that they heard that his Majesty was injured? Or did they have other motives?
"Marshal, what should we do, attack or defend?" a general looked at Ding Xiu and asked.
"Zhang Kai, you must quickly pass the news here to His Majesty so that His Majesty can make a decision and quickly evacuate all living beings in the city!" Ding Xiu said majestically.
"Yes, I'll do it right away!" Zhang Kai responded hurriedly, dragging his fat body and rolling out quickly.
"Sun Xuan, lead some soldiers who are less than a thousand years old to the Sky City and wait for orders!"
"Other generals, quickly gather the soldiers. I want to see what kind of horror this evil cult has!"
Ding Xiu stood up and spoke with dignity, his tone full of determination.
"No, Marshal, I want to stay. You can let Ding Wu go to Sky City. He is younger than me!"
After listening to what Ding Xiu said, Sun Xuan immediately stood up and refuted. At this time, even a fool could see that going to Sky City to wait was obviously a way out for their Tianlong Army.
Those who stayed behind to resist the Demon Cult's army would probably have to fight to the death. How could Sun Xuan escape in such a situation?
"Yes, General. Let Ding Wu go. He is the youngest and he should go according to the rules."
"Yes, General!"
One general after another suggested that Ding Wu go to Sky City, not only because Ding Wu was the youngest, but also because he was Ding Xiu's only offspring.
"How dare you! Military orders are as heavy as a mountain. Are you going to disobey? In half an hour, the army will assemble outside Bianhuang City! Those who violate the order will be punished by military law!"
Ding Xiu roared angrily, and all his energy burst out, causing the entire military tent to tremble violently.
"Yes, sir!"
The generals looked at their marshal's cold gaze, dared not say anything more, and quickly walked out of the military tent!
Inside the huge military tent!
Only Lai Dingxiu and his son Ding Wu were left, both of them had serious faces, as if they were frozen in ice for thousands of years.
After an unknown amount of time, a sigh was heard!
"Alas... Do you hate your father for not letting you leave?"
"Wuhen, a man of the Ding family is not afraid of life or death. For the Holy Skyfire Court, I, Ding Wu, am willing to die!"
"Well, you are worthy of being my son, Ding Xiu. Let us go and see how powerful the Demon Cult's army is."
…
One hour later!
In the Border City, all living creatures have been evacuated, not a single one is left. This is not because of the organization's efforts. To be precise, all the living creatures ran away before the organization could be organized!
After all, the news that the Demon Cult was planning to massacre the city had spread throughout the entire Eastern Region!
What's outrageous is that when Zhang Kai returned to his mansion, he found that even his wife had run away, not only taking away all his assets, but also leaving him a letter of divorce!
It says above:
You and I don't have a harmonious relationship, and you're even a slut in bed, so I'm divorcing you now!
—King Yaksha;
Zhang Kai was almost furious after reading the divorce letter. He was a grown man, but was divorced by his own wife. The letter insulted him. It was outrageous!
Isn't it just a little fat, isn't that good? ((?（//?Д/?/）?))
Outside the border city!
Millions of Tianlong soldiers gathered, and bloody energy rose into the sky. Each of them had cultivation level not weaker than that of a semi-saint!
This is the Tianlong Army led by Ding Xiu, the most top-notch army of the Holy Skyfire Court. It can even be said that one-third of the Holy Skyfire Court was conquered by this army back then.
Above the army, all the generals stood in the air, and each of them had a serious look on their face, although their Tianlong Army had fought countless tough battles!
Even in the worst incident, when more than half of the people were killed or injured, they had never been so worried!
It is true that a person's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. The reputation of the demon soldiers is too strong. No matter what enemy they face, they can always cause a one-sided massacre!
Ding Xiu looked back at the expressions of the generals and his heart sank again. The battle had not even started yet, but they were already afraid. This was probably the thing that every army feared the most.
"I didn't expect that the strongest army would not be formed in one of the major holy courts, but in one sect. How ironic."
Ding Xiu muttered to himself as he looked up at the sky, with a hint of bitterness in his eyes.
