"Leave the city and meet them in battle!" Fellow Daoist Chang barked.
There was no escaping. Such a massive Uniting Dao City could not match a Uniting Dao cultivator in speed.
Nor could they hold the city. If they stubbornly defended it, the Grand Array would only be breached. They could only turn passivity into initiative.
In terms of numbers, they were no weaker than the enemy. Fellow Daoist Chang felt that if they truly fought, it was still uncertain who would emerge alive.
The group of Uniting Dao cultivators in the city had long been stifling their frustration. Upon hearing the City Lord's order, they immediately surged with righteous fury.
Thus, when Lu Ye's side returned to the battlefield a short while later, they happened to see the enemy Uniting Dao cultivators, led by Fellow Daoist Chang, leaving the city to meet them in battle.
"City Lord Zhao, leave this fellow to you!" Yuan Xi shouted as she eyed Fellow Daoist Chang at the forefront. "No problem, right?"
With Yuan Xi's strength, defeating Fellow Daoist Chang would naturally not be difficult. But what she wanted from this battle was not merely victory, but to kill as many enemies as possible.
Thus, she had no desire to get tangled up with the enemy City Lord. She wanted to deal with the ordinary Uniting Dao cultivators. As long as she could swiftly kill one or two of them, she could quickly break open the situation.
City Lord Zhao immediately nodded. "No problem!"
