Chapter 27: War breaks out, Zhuang Lian is confident
Su Jiutian rode the Qingyan War Wolf that originally belonged to Chu Tian and approached the Original City.
Behind him are Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei, Cheng Yaojin, Gao Shun and other semi-saints.
After that, there were the deputy generals and lieutenant generals of each major legion.
The 350,000-strong army is at the back.
On the city wall, everyone, including Zhuang Lian, was slightly shocked when they saw the large army outside the city.
The realm of the army of hundreds of thousands is generally that of warriors.
There are cavalry, infantry, and heavy armored soldiers.
"With such an elite army, it's not surprising that they defeated Chu Tian and killed 400,000 imperial guards." Zhuang Lian said in a deep voice.
"City Lord, after killing Su Jiutian, if we can subdue the army outside the city, the strength of Yuanchu City will skyrocket." Zhao Niu said excitedly.
Zhao Ma on the side was also excited.
Upon hearing this, Ma Rui secretly thought that they were two idiots.
The original city was self-governing, and it only followed orders and not announcements, making it the local emperor within a radius of thousands of miles.
Moreover, their strength is already strong. If they were to subdue such an elite army, wouldn't that be an attempt to arouse the fear of the imperial court?
Soon, Su Jiutian led the army and arrived outside the city.
"My lord, that man is the Lord of Yuanchu City, Zhuang Lian, and those three are the three semi-saints under his command." Liu Qingmei said: "As for that woman, if nothing unexpected happens, she should be Zhuang Lian's daughter, Zhuang Tong."
Su Jiutian nodded slightly and his eyes fell on Zhuang Lian.
The other person also looked at him, and their eyes met.
"Su Jiutian, this city lord never expected that you, Su Xiao's useless bastard, would be so courageous that you not only killed your brother and father, but also dared to start a rebellion."
Zhuang Lian spoke first.
He was telling the truth.
He really admires Su Jiutian.
He endured humiliation in the Beiliang Palace for twenty years, practiced hard in secret, recruited soldiers, and then killed Su Xiao and others in one fell swoop and massacred the entire Beiliang army.
Of course, enduring humiliation and practicing hard for twenty years were all imagined by Zhuang Lian.
Of course, he couldn't know that Zhao Yun, Yuan Zuozong and others all obtained their titles by signing in to the system.
"Then what?" Su Jiutian asked with raised eyebrows.
"If you respectfully accept His Majesty's order and inherit the throne of King Beiliang, you may not die." Zhuang Lian said:
"But you refused the imperial edict, defied His Majesty, and openly started a rebellion. Little did you know that this was the way to your death."
Su Jiutian heard this and spoke slowly: "But the fact is, I not only killed Zhao Tian, Li Hai, and Song Tao, annihilated 300,000 troops in three cities, but also occupied Tianlang Pass and killed Jiang Sheng. A few days ago, I killed Chu Tian and slaughtered all 400,000 imperial guards of the Great Zhou."
"Since I started my army, I have never been defeated."
"Humph!"
"The Great Zhou Dynasty was able to suppress the aristocratic families and the great sects, and ruled the Nine Provinces for three thousand years. Its profound foundation and strength are beyond your imagination."
Zhuang Lian was dismissive of Su Jiutian's words.
Even if Su Jiutian occupied Tianlang Pass and massacred 400,000 imperial guards, in his opinion, it was only the last brilliance before destruction.
"The Great Zhou ruled the Nine Provinces for three thousand years, which is long enough." Su Jiutian said: "Three thousand years ago, they seized the country from the Ji family, and now, I will seize the country from the Zhou family."
"Humph, you are really arrogant enough." Zhuang Lian sneered, "You came to Yuanchu City on your own initiative, which is to seek death. If you still want to seize the country, wait for your next life!"
"Since I dare to come, I must be confident." Su Jiutian said coldly.
"This city lord has already stepped into the Saint realm. Although you have seven semi-saints under your command, they are nothing to this city lord."
Zhuang Lian said: "What's more, this city lord has three semi-saints and Tong'er under his command. How can you dare to come to Yuanchu City?"
Su Jiutian had a faint smile on his face.
The reason why he came to the Primordial City was because the monthly summoning opportunity was about to be refreshed.
Of course, there is no upper limit to the monthly sign-in opportunity, and one can sign in to obtain Martial Saint, Half-Emperor, or Martial Emperor.
But the lower limit is also very low, and it is possible to sign in and obtain Half-Saint, Martial Lord, Martial Emperor or even Martial King.
In addition, Zhao Yun, Cheng Yaojin, Yuan Zuozong and others told him that if they joined forces, they would not be afraid of Zhuang Lian, who had already stepped into the realm of Martial Saint.
"Su Jiutian!"
Zhuang Tong, who had been silent all this time, spoke. Su Jiutian turned his gaze to him.
"Did you kill Shi Fei'er?" Zhuang Tong asked coldly.
"Not bad." Su Jiutian nodded.
"That woman thinks she can do whatever she wants just because she is the direct disciple of the Cihang Sword Sect's Sect Master. She is simply courting death!"
"Since you admit it, today, I will cut you into pieces and avenge Sister Fei'er."
Zhuang Tong spoke in a deep voice, full of murderous intent.
"Enough of the nonsense, Su Jiutian, you can prepare to face death."
As soon as Zhuang Lian finished speaking, he took a step forward and appeared in the air outside the city.
Ma Rui, Zhao Niu, Zhao Ma and Zhuang Tong also took a step forward and appeared outside the city.
"Meet the enemy!" Su Jiutian said in a deep voice.
The next moment, seven semi-saints, Zhao Yun, Yuan Zuozong, Cheng Yaojin, Jiang Wei, Gao Shun, Liu Qingmei and Qi Jiguang, rose into the air at the same time.
"Seven semi-saints, and all of them have reached the great perfection of the semi-saint realm." Zhuang Lian looked at the seven people and sneered:
"Given time, you will definitely be able to enter the realm of martial saint. Unfortunately, today, you all have to die!"
"Stop talking nonsense, take this axe from Grandpa Cheng!"
Cheng Yaojin was a man with a bad temper. He shouted loudly and attacked in anger.
Xuanhua's axe made a sound of breaking through the air and chopped towards Zhuang Lian.
Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei, Yuan Zuozong, and Gao Shun also attacked almost at the same time and rushed towards Zhuang Lian.
Qi Jiguang and Liu Qingmei attacked Zhao Niu, Zhao Ma, Ma Rui and Zhuang Tong respectively.
In mid-air, a total of twelve semi-saints broke out into a fierce battle.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Boom!"
Every collision was accompanied by a deafening roar.
Zhuang Lian fought one against five, his expression was calm and his moves were composed.
However, Zhao Yun, Cheng Yaojin, Jiang Wei and other five people frowned secretly.
Zhuang Lian has only one foot into the realm of Martial Saint, but his strength far exceeds that of the Great Perfection of Semi-Saint.
Even if they tried their best, they could only be evenly matched for a while and neither of them was at a disadvantage.
Not to mention suppressing it or even killing it.
"Although this city lord has only one foot into the realm of martial saint, you still cannot resist him."
Zhuang Lian sneered repeatedly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he slapped out with his palm, and Cheng Yaojin flew backwards more than ten feet.
"Ahhh!"
Cheng Yaojin roared angrily, picked up the Xuanhua axe, and attacked Zhuang Lian again.
Zhao Yun, Yuan Zuozong, Jiang Wei, and Gao Shun also fought with all their might.
Here, Zhao Yun and his five men surrounded and killed Zhuang Lian alone, but they were unable to gain the upper hand.
But when facing Liu Qingmei alone and two others, Qi Jiguang was able to gain the upper hand and overpower the enemy.
Especially Liu Qingmei.
Her opponents are Ma Rui and Zhuang Tong.
Ma Rui's realm is only at the peak of the semi-saint realm.
Zhuang Tong's realm is even at the early stage of the semi-saint realm.
Facing Liu Qingmei, the two could only resist and had no power to fight back.
Su Jiutian had a faint smile on his face.
Zhao Yun, Cheng Yaojin and the other two were evenly matched against Zhuang Lian.
As long as Liu Qingmei and Qi Jiguang kill their respective opponents, the combined strength of the seven of them will be able to defeat or even kill Zhuang Lian.
