Seeing the Black Nether Envoy return,
a flicker of displeasure passed through Guo Tong's eyes.
With the man's strength,
he should have killed Ju Dongyi immediately after breaking the formation, then swept through the experts in Mount Tai City to give their forces an advantage in taking it.
Instead, he had returned immediately after breaking the formation.
From beginning to end,
he had only made a single move.
Although such strength shocked Guo Tong, it also left him deeply dissatisfied.
But—
the man was not part of the army, after all. When the Marquis of Thousand Mountains sent these two to accompany his troops, Guo Tong had understood that, despite being the army's commander, he could not order either of them around.
"Your strength truly commands my admiration, Black Nether Envoy!" Guo Tong said first, then continued, "Please oversee the battle for me, both of you. I will go and meet the lord of Mount Tai City."
With that,
he left the demonic beast's back and headed toward Mount Tai City without waiting for their answer.
"General Guo seems rather unhappy!"
"What can he do about it? If not for that person, who does he think he is?"
"I wonder how the battles at the other cities are going."
"Rest assured. With us Twelve Nether Envoys taking action, we can sweep through them all," the Black Nether Envoy said proudly.
By the time the eastern sky began to pale,
a piece of news had shaken the entire Thousand Mountains Prefecture.
Bang!!
A palm slammed down, instantly reducing the armrest to dust. Yan Caizhe rose from the seat of honor, his fierce eyes filled with icy darkness.
"Three hours. In just three hours, we lost eleven cities, over a million troops, and even fifteen great cultivators of the Divine Martial Realm!"
