The next day.
The weather was overcast, giving the impression that dark clouds were pressing down from above.
Within Gengxin City, the Star Luo Army was resting and regrouping after its victory when a scout suddenly arrived with a report.
"Lord Yang Wudi."
"Enemy forces have been spotted thirty li north of the city. The Spirit Hall Empire army is attacking again."
"They appear to be the remnants that retreated the day before yesterday."
Yang Wudi had just won his first victory, catching the Spirit Hall Empire off guard. He was currently resting in the City Lord's Manor, preparing to regroup his troops and wipe out the remnants of the Spirit Hall Empire that had retreated to Nuoding City.
He had not expected the scout to deliver such good news directly to him.
Yang Wudi had jet-black hair and a ruddy complexion, but his expression was somewhat gloomy. His sinister eyes gave off an icy, chilling air. "A pack of defeated remnants still dares to come?"
As soon as he spoke, the entire hall erupted into commotion.
Most of those present were the elite members of the Breaking Clan.
The Breaking Clan.
Originally one of the four single-attribute clans affiliated with the Clear Sky Sect, its inherited martial soul was the Soul Breaking Spear, and its members were Soul Masters focused solely on attack. After the Clear Sky Sect sealed itself away, its clan leader, Yang Wudi, led the Breaking Clan away from the sect. However, the incident involving Tang Hao had also implicated the Breaking Clan. During its conflict with Spirit Hall, the clan had lost nearly half its members and had never recovered its strength. Yang Wudi's son had also died in that battle. It could be said that the Breaking Clan hated Spirit Hall to the bone.
